Scare prank It is All Saints' Day. I do hope that we can offer a short prayer and to light a candle for them. Yesterday, my mom and I decided to light a candle while praying the rosary just before the daily mass because our parish had decided to recite the Litany of the faithful departed until All Souls' Day. We would still light a different candle for our other relatives tomorrow. Have you already read my previous article, Spooky Sunday? What can you say about my real life…

Lost souls Do you believe that souls tend to linger here on Earth because they have unfinished business? Though there are some souls that would visit you to just to see you or to warn you. In some of the horror movies that I have watched before, souls either have an unfinished business and sometimes they are also here as our guardian angel to warn and protect us. Have you had any experience with souls or have seen one? I instantly thought of the show Paranormal Activity that…
Say, teeth How do you take care of your teeth? How many times do you brush each day? Do you floss? Do you gargle? There was a toothpaste advertisement when I was young and the song was "*brush, brush, brush! 3 times a day. Brush with *insert name of toothpaste*". I only brush my teeth after brunch and dinner. I floss after dinner. I am not used to using mouthwashes as I felt like my breath stinks whenever I do use it especially upon waking up. I know that you will say that…
Smoke free When I saw @Bjorn's artictle entitled Hard Habits to Break, at first I thought of the book by Stephen Covey, 7 Habits of highly effective people. Have you read that book? I know it was mentioned by one of our professors when I was in college and all I can remember was to think win-win. She alwats kept on mentioning about win-win. Who would not want a win-win solution right? Anyway, as I go along Bjorn's article, I thought of the time when I was still a smoker. Are…
Habits Originally I wanted to talk about some of my old or new habits when I have read @Bjorn's Hard habit to break but I ended up talking about my old habit which was smoking. As of typing this, I instantly thought of my cousin who had a habit of smoking while drinking coffee first when he starts his day. That was before because I found out that he also quit a month after I did because of a bothersome cough as well. His a few years younger than I do so I was really happy…
Cleaning day Another general cleaning. It has been days since we have been cleaning parts of our house or should I say only the exterior. Few months ago, I have published an article about our cluttered house. Some of you have seen how many junks I mean things that my parents held dearly to their hearts that they really cannot seem to let go. Early this year, we also had a general cleaning but it was only my room, our kitchen and bar area yet we still have a lot of things…
Missing the mall Whenever I watch NBA with my dad, I noticed that the arena was always full and only a few people do wears masks. I have already noticed that earlier this year during the championship game of Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns. Months before the finals, there were only a few people in the arena and those are just the people that were part of the team, referee and production crews. We noticed how an empty arena started to have some people. Here in the…
Domestic travel destinations (part 1) Yesterday I was just talking about how much I miss going to the mall. But other than shopping malls, I also miss travelling. I have not yet explored the whole world nor have I explored the whole Philippines but I have been to some tourist destinations here and abroad. As if I had been to a lot of countries but it is only 2. LOL. I know that I will be able to increase that in the coming years. #thinkpositive #Ican Today's article is…
Domestic travel destinations (part 2) Just a recap in case you haven't read the part 1 of my article, the cities that I want to visit here in the Philippines after this pandemic (or if I already have some budget. LOL) are: Zamboanga City, Ilocos and Cebu. And here are some other additions to my list: ****4. Iloilo City**** As a kid, I was already familiar with the delicacies in some regions because of my dad. I was used to eating a lot of specialty foods from Biscocho Haus,…
International travel destinations (part 1) Of course I also want to travel to different parts of the world. Some people loved the idea of travelling the whole world while working but I would like to travel with my family and/or friends. I am pretty sure that a lot of us have our dream destination. Would you want to do it by travelling while working or just plain travel? By now I am guessing that you have read some of the domestic travel destinations that I want but of course…
International travel destinations (part 2) United States of America and Canada are the countries that I have listed on my previous article. Countries where some of our relatives live and the countries that are on my list that I want to visit someday. Other than those 2, I still have a few on my mind. Let's read about some of those now. ****3. South Korea**** Annyeong! I think I have said this before when I published the Kdramas that I have watched that from the first time…
Products of hardwork Now that we have travelled (or simply talked about. LOL) my dream destinations, let us go back to the reality. LOL. Yesterday was 11.11 or November 11 and that only means that a lot of great deals were up for grabs on popular ecommerce platforms. I cannot remember the last time that I have ordered from Shopee but it was probably last May when I published a 2 part article about the things that I/we bought during that month. It was not 5.5 or May 05 sale…
Sadness in gift giving Since yesterday and today I do not feel like doing anything. I just want to lay in my bed. Did you sing it? LOL. Honestly, for some unknown reasons I was really not in the mood to do anything. Probably because the other day after a 3 day rest from general cleaning, we resumed it again. Though even if it was for 4 hours, my whole body hurts that when I entered our kitchen, I instantly lay on the floor while watching our dogs drank a 750ml of ice cold…
Family day They say that Sunday is family day and it sure was for us today because like I have mentioned yesterday that my brother and his family will visit us. Blessed Sunday to everyone. I am sorry if I have not yet replied to your comments as I did spent most of my time with my family this afternoon. My brother and his family arrived late lunch and they came from the province for they are really targetting to open their Korean grocery this month. Just before they went…
Being true The past few weeks, my mom kept on talking about one vlogger that she likes as of the moment. She would tell me when this vlogger bought something or how this vlogger is so good at convincing her viewers on the products that she recommends. Even my mom would like to try the products being recommended by some influencers. I told my mom that I do not believe in some influencers especially if it was about a skincare product because I know that some of them are just…
It's complicated Last week I read @BreadChamp's Why fight for it if it's not worth it? Exactly! Why would you fight for someone if it is not worth it? Have you ever fought for someone before? What happened? Are you still together or not anymore? Did you choose love over family or vice versa? Seems like a very good topic to talk about right but I am not going to talk about that now as I am not feeling well since this morning. This article is about some random situational…
Mother tongue How many languages do you speak? What are some languages that you wish or want to learn? After I have published my products of hardwork, I happened to read that JonicaBradley's 13th writing prompt was about languages. She talked about language in all forms, from body languages, love language and even pet language and a lot more. While I was reading it, I though about the time when I published my article using our own language during the national language month…
Love or family When I was drafting the introduction on It's complicated article, I got an idea to talk about today's article when I asked, Have you ever fought for someone before? What happened? Are you still together or not anymore? Did you choose love over family or vice versa? Was there ever a time that you fought for someone because you loved that person so much however, your parents were not in favor of your love story? Seems like a love story of Romeo and Juliet or…
Thank God it's Friday Cannot remember the last time that I looked forward to the weekend. It was probably when I was still a student. However, today I am so happy that it's a Friday because it only means that I am back home. "*Wait! What?*" I bet that it was your reaction or maybe not. LOL. But whether it is or it isn't I am so happy to be back home. Why? Last Tuesday afternoon, my brother called not to tell me or convine about their store but he asked me if I can watch over…
Prognosis This evening we were informed by my godmother that my cousin's father-in-law have succumbed to cancer. I believe it was this year when his father-in-law started chemotherapy. Not really sure with the details but I have wanted to publish an article about death again. A month ago I happened to see a noisy post from AnnaMarie24 when she talked about her dad. She started her post about not feeling good and you decided to go to the hospital for a check up and then the…
Do you know me? This article is inspired by @bmjc98? After I have read her article, How much do you know me challenge , I also thought of making my own set of questions. If you have been an avid reader of mine, you would know how much I love joining some prompts, challenges and answering random questions. I have already thought of a title while I was reading her article and I instantly drafted a few sentences right after. When I was thinking about the questions, I was unsure…
Grand opening Today has been a long day for me, my mom and most especially to my brother, sister-in-law and her mother because today was the opening of their first business which is a Korean grocery store. Few hours after I left my brother's house last Friday, they all went to the province so they can prepare everything for the grand opening. We all had a busy weekend even we were not together. I did my daughter duties at home and for the first time in many months, I…
Thank you @Talecharm for the sponsorship.
Bad sister This afternoon as I was reading some articles from differebt users, I read @BreadChamp's article when she asked if she was a bad sister. She did something to her brothers but she has a vaoid reason for it. You can read all about it here. Because of her article, I contemplated about my current situation and decided to publish an article about it. Have you been a bad sister or brother to your siblings? I think I have asked a very common question that needs no…
Stress Cannot remember the last time I was stressed out. Maybe it was when I had my last surgery last year when my wound would not heal or to be exact, when my stitches did not close my wounds. It was a very stressful experience of having a surgery during this time of pandemic. It even decreased my healing time because I kept on thinking about it each passing day most especially every after my visit to the doctor. I am not making up stories but it took 4 months for my wound…
All I have to do is dream Dream, dream, dream, dream Dream, dream, dream, dream I hope you did not sing that one. Though I am not sure if you know that song. LOL. I used to hear that song when I was a kid every Sunday from my dad's favorite radio station. The title of the song is All I have to do is dream by the Everly Brothers. O you know that song? If not, you can search and listen to it first while you are reading ny article. I have already published articles about dream…
Tiring day It's Friday once again. If you have been an avid reader of mine, you would know how much I love this day not only because I get to be with my parents again but also I get to be with our dogs. I forgot to take a video of Doggie when I got home but he was so happy when he saw me. His tail kept on wagging and he was so clingy that I got a lot of kisses from him. If only he can talk, I am sure he was going to ask where I have been the past few days. But I am back now…
Are you ready? Few days left before December or should I say 28 days left before Christmas. I ain't going to ask if you are ready or not. But here in our household, we have partially started to prepare for Christmas and New Year. When my brother called me to say that he needed my services to look out for my godson during his online classes, I was waiting for the Christmas decors that I have ordered from Shopee. Since September, I was planning to buy some Christmas decors but…
Letter to Mother Earth Late afternoon as I was browsing my noise.cash, I stumbled upon SweetMonday (I thought it was RestlessSoul's post because I didn't notice that she renoised it) and JLshub also known as @JLoberiza here on read.cash posts about our Mother Earth. Also yesterday when my godson and I were waiting for his 1PM class, his mother gave him his assignment that I think it was his project as she printed it out. It was also about Mother Earth and my godson needed to…
Inflation It's already 12PM as of typing this and I still do not have anything to write about. I do have some topics listed but I feel like I cannot squeeze something from my chubby brains. LOL. Let me just talk about my noisy post last night. Maybe some of you have already seen it but in case you have not, here is a screenshot of it. I learned how to handle or manage our expenses when my dad had assigned me to do our groceries years ago. He would give me money and I would…
Last weekend of November 2021 These past few days I have been very sleepy all the time. I do not know if lack of sleep is the reason behind it but I always feel that my eyes were so heavy. Despite drinking 2 tall glasses of strong coffee, I would still feel sleepy. Last night when I was drafting my article, Inflation, I have deleted quite a few sentences because it has no connection to the topic. I took a screenshot of one of the sentences that I typed when I was not in my…
