When we grow, distance tend to do the same
People people nameless people, famous ones, forgotten individuals, good day!
Hi! Inspired by yesterday's quick walk, I kinda realized relationship indeed change as time passes by. For more cases people tend to grow closer, but there are those who grow apart. The latter is sad.
Friendship and family relationship are the things I am talking about in this article.
He's one of my cutest cousin, throwback when he calls me "Mantac" which means mama tac. He also named me "Tac" as the backwards pronunciation of "Cat". He's really a smart sweet boy. Sometimes (or most of the time) he will go to our house and we'll play with him. We're all fond of him when he's a baby or kid because he has a lot of talent, that's why we call him "abala ka toy (totoy)" because we literally can't do anything when he's in our house because we are all happy playing with him. I also babysit him a lot before because his mom is a teacher and he is close to me to the point he'll cry if he see me leave. I had a lot of fun memories with him during my teenage years.
Time passes and people change, so as the bond and relationship.
Yesterday, I went for a walk going to my friend's house to borrow her reviewer. It's nearly 3pm when I went back home. Our house is near the school where I graduated highschool so a lot of students are on the road as I walk home. In this photo, my cousin who is our "abala ka toy" is walking home from school. He is now in grade 7 so probably he's 11 or 12 years old.
I kinda remember all our bonding as I walk behind him. I realized I am getting old haha look how time passed quickly, I used to change his diapers and now he's already a young man entering his teenage years. I am happy how he grow up, a timid smart boy. Although I missed his laugh and silliness, I am still happy he is a good boy not being a pain to his parents. Our house is basically near each other because we're living in a compound. I walk fastly and try to approach him saying "Aga ng uwian mo Kuya Jack ah" ("Your dismissal is early Kuya Jack"). Well, I call him "Kuya Jack" now because he's now a big brother to his younger cousins, niece, and nephews and I want the younger generation of our family to learn how to respect him.
I look at him but immediately look away when I didn't get a reply. I am still walking behind him, as I talk to him he just look at the side but never look back at me. Yes, I felt embarrassed for myself not getting a reply haha. It's embarrassing to be ignored and sad when you were ignored by someone used to be close with you. Maybe he didn't hear me I told myself or he's just in a stage of puberty lol
I just can't help but reminisce our fun moments before, I don't know why growing up made us grow apart too. I miss him clinging to me so much but well, things happen and that's fine.
I don't know about a lot of things but thanks for reading 🤗💛
Weekends ft $3.18 earned from Attapoll
Oct 22 | 12:20 pm
Currently, I am here in the bus going to our church building. We're still waiting for more passengers and I guess the bus will depart by 12:40 noon. As I wait, I eat this my comfort travel food. Awhile ago, there's a cute kid sitting in front of me with her mom. She keeps on peaking on me and then she giggles haha so cute. I played along, the usual peak a boo and she really loves it. Tho her mom scold her a little because she's getting really playful.
I want to eat something salty but not too much whenever I will travel and Nova did a really great job in relaxing my motion sickness.

Happy Monday!
I thought I will wash clothes today but I decided not to because I am a bit tired from the travel. It's a hot monday today tho, good for hanging clothes. I am a bit sleepy but I have to buy something from the birthday and sweet store and at the same time get my friend's review materials from her house because she lend me hers. She already told me to come by 2pm
I am really sleepy right now I think I should take a nap.
Oh wait!
Before I forget, I would like to share that I already cashed out my ₱150 from Attapoll earnings. It's a survey app and ₱150 is the minimum cash out. I first decided to save it a d transfer if I reached ₱500 but I want to try if it's legit first hehe. https://attapoll.app/join/iaugg
Interact with y'all later 💛😊
Productive Friday
Good afternoon (nearly evening) to you guys and gals of read cash 😊
I really wanted to be productive today in all forms of productivity. I decided to focused on the things listed on my sticky notes.
First on the list is to write blog in PeakD for which I obviously haven't finish haha. I decided to write first here in read cash because I already have a topic in mind so let's check the second box. I also interacted with fellow users from different sites awhile ago although I think it's not yet enough because I only commented on few. The reason for this is our long period of internet interruption. Same goes with claiming satoshi and crypto in CoinPayu, I just claimed now after hours and it's a loss but that's fine. https://www.coinpayu.com/dashboard
The good thing about the lost of internet connection is that I managed to review my math. I already took down notes from Day 1-3, and am not yet done with Day 4. I plan to review more later.
For Day 3, it has 40 items. I thought it's 50 items because the previous test assessment has 50 questions. I answered it for 2 + hrs but the allotted time to answer this is 3 hours. I'm happy that I passed this assessment haha. The first two were always a conditional one. I'll still review this tho.
The next on the list is formatting my sister's laptop and download references there. I haven't done this because my sister is using her laptop and I am not sure if I'll do it now because it also require some time: back up files and reformatting and stuff. But if my sister bring her laptop here then I'll do it while I interact in different platforms for more achieve goals for the day.
I am already done with chores but I am still contemplating if I'll cook or just ask my sister to bring home food. Well, I'll message her later and then decide. But still chores are already done ✅
Next?
Reward thyself
I cooked banana pancakes (mini) for me and the whole fam. There's a lot of ripe bananas bought by my mom, I don't want it to go to waste because it'll soon be overripe. We don't usually eat fruits that's why most fruits go to waste if we have a lot so I've gotta transform it into something more appetizing for it to be eaten.
I also had my fav drink Mr. Milk, it's mango this time (yesterday was strawberry). This is my baby nephew's snack but he left it so tita will drink it haha.
So far, I achieved those written on my to do list and I have some time left before bed time. So yup I conclude that this is a productive Friday 🎉 and also I managed to achieve my 5-streak of publishing an article another yeyyy!!!
That'll be all for now, thanks for your love and support 😌❣️
Confusing yet Fun Thursday
This week is nearly ending, what's your progress with the things you're aiming?
The weather today is definitely confusing. I woke up with a little rain 🌧️ and I feel like "no, not another lazy day please". I checked in different platforms first and of course enjoy my usual cup of coffee, after that I read the Bible.
Soon as my mom came from work, I move and prepare breakfast. I was busy and tired yesterday because I babysit my neohew again so the dishes were left unwashed huhu. I fixed all of it, clean tge dishes, sink, cook fried rice, and reheat leftover chicken adobo from last night. I clean the kitchen too so I told my mom to eat first because I am not yet done.
The rain stopped that's why I decided that I'll go out today and buy some stuff in the grocery store. I interact first in rc, nc, noiseapp, and read my Bible again. Then, when 11:30 hit the clock, I prepare for lunch. It's a bit late because mom's still sleeping and I will cook chicken with Sotanghon soup, if I cook it already and we'll eat later, the sotanghon will be all soggy. After we ate our dinner, the rain started to pour again and it gets heavier as if we're already signal number 1. I almost give up the thought of going outside but my friend agreed to meet so we can register for our nation ID. I was confuse this whole time hahah don't know if I'll go or not but I end up going with mah friend and I don't regret it hihi.
Currently as I write this, my friend is having a haircut for a change. We already finished registering and also bought something in preloved clothes. I am not sure if the grocery store is still open but will check it later hehe.
------
And I'm home nowww
We went to the grocery store and I bought some foodie. Gosh all are just for snacks and also for my niece and nephew and it costs me almost 500 pesos, goodbye $10 from my bro-in-law in just a snap ackkk. Dati kinikita ko yan sa nc ng weekly haha like legit. Kung wala lang ako bayaran naipon ko sana yun kaso ayun but that's fine sa fam and bills din naman napunta hehe
Time for chores and meditation again 💙
Thanks for stopping by
Pressured Wednesday
Rain rain go away come again another day lil catoo wants to play rain rain 🌧️ go away~
The constant rain is the only constant happening in my life right now. Plus the not so productive me hays. My sister again ask me to babysit ger son because her husband is currently have fever, cough, and cold 😷 and their son just recovered from it. They're afraid he might get it again. So yeah no review for today, well at some point I won't review today really because of my headache. It started when I kept on smelling bad odor, I know it's from my cat's poop but it's really strong that made me feel really sick huhu. I think anyone who has a cat can definitely understand my agony hahaha cat's poop are sooooo mind blowing hahahah a killer 🤮🤢
But anyway, it's a pressured Wednesday for me to honest. Yesterday, the result for the October 2022 Chemical Engineering Licensure Examination is out and all my close friends passed it (yeyyy). I am genuinely happy for them, I know how they struggled and always continue regardless of the result they get everytime they have mock exams.
I posted this on my My Day and a lot actually gave it a heart. Some replied with congratulations to my friends and some even asked me how I did hahha I pranked them that I failed the exam but eventually told them I didn't take lols. I messaged some of my not so close friends but I still consider as friends with congratulations and of course after thanking me they will say "you're next (to pass)" well I am hoping yes but I do feel pressured hahaha. I sometimes overthink the exam and of course imagine myself passing the board, and then there's this "what if I fail?"
It's still a good thing that Words of God comfort me whenever I start doubting. Of course I know my capacity-I am not smart and slow learner, but nothing is impossible with God 😊
It's now or not now, but not never
It maybe a pressured Wednesday, but also a hopeful one. Have a good day!
Tuesday Fuels
Lazy Tuesday 🤪🙄
I am not productive today aside from the fact that I published a `blog` in PeakD
Karasuno's Moon: I go by the name Salty Shima https://peakd.com/hive-188409/@curiouscatho/karasunos-moon-i-go-by-the-name-salty-shima
I didn't study my math nor my chem 🤧 because ughh I don't have energy to do so, the rain make it harder for me to sit on my table and study end up being on my bed almost the whole day. Oh wait at least I successfully cleaned our ref after I defrost it few days ago.
What are my Tuesday Fuel?
First what do I mean by "fuel"?
Well, just like cars and other vehicles, they need fuel to run and have their activities. Same goes with ppl so basically what is this fuel ? ⛽ Of course FOOD!
For my morning fuel, I eat chili mansi pancit canton paired with my Nescafe Creamy white coffee (nescafe beke namen eherm (≧▽≦)). No egg because I'm already hungry 😅
Lunch goes with banana because as I've said in my nc post, there are a lot of bananas 🍌 at home and all are already ripe so even though I don't usually eat fruit (as in seldom) I ate this because I don't want all of it to go waste as mom is the only one who often eats fruits. My viand is siomai and I ate late, almost 1:10pm because I finish washing the parts of our ref.
For my snacks, I was fueled by these kiddie snacks which is basically from my niece and nephew. I am not fond of Chuckie honestly (sorri ur not my chocolatey buddy), maybe as a kid yes, because I can't afford it and only rich kids can and I always thought it taste really good. However, as I grow up I feel weird whenever I drink this hahah I dunno why, but I drank it awhile ago because I can't find anything and I don't want to buy because I don't have budget for it in the first place lol
The biscuit is from my niece and I loved it sooo much hehe It's not that sweet. It has print on the packaging stating it's made in Japan.
Finally for the evening fuel and the last meal of the day. I had this tinola cooked by my sister. I am so lazy to cook so I asked my 4th sister to just buy viand on her way home (cuz she's still at work) but my 3rd sister told me she'll bring food instead. Tadahhh good job lazy self, you'll finish this day without touching any kitchenware.
Tomorrow is another set of fuel for my body but am sure no more lazy me because mom is home tomorrow so I have to move my body, soul, and mind hahah mapagpanggal.jpeg lol
That's it for today, I have a mild headache despite my laziness so after I publish this I'll prepare for sleep. Good night 🌉 thanks for stopping by (◍•ᴗ•◍)
Sleepy Hot Monday
Good evening from my side of the world 🌍
Trying to write an article while this cutie is still consuming his milk for energy.
I am not active in all platforms today because my sister ask to babysit my nephew. He arrived home at 8am for which I just get up from bed because I feel lazy haha. He is growing so fast 🥺 last time I check he is so smol now he's a big babiii
The usual run around the house so I was tired being the tail of my baby nephew, he loves to run so fast and often hurt himself. Her mom will always tell not to let him fall and hit his head, and so far nothing like that happens every time I babysit him. After hours of playing of course he'll ask for milk and then watch cocomelon, masha and the bear, and Antiks. Short screen time only. We also went to our grandmom's house few steps away from ours. My nephew loves cars, trucks, and other vehicles. He saw a train designed clock and asked our lola if he can play with it, of course a lola will agree given his cute plea.
He usually sleep by 12noon or 1pm but the hot weather is hindering him. He's irritated because like his mom, even though it's cold he still want electric fan.
We decided to just play with his trucks and cars in the balcony and by 3pm he finally fell asleep. I am a sleepy tita so I went to sleep too hahaha. It was already 5:30 pm when I woke up, and then he woke up at 6pm. Now, he's running around again with his cousins. I think my sister will fetch him by 7:30pm, glad my niece is here to play with him, I managed to finished this article.

Yeah that's it for now, happy Monday again!
The only dirt I love
Hi! Happy weekend 😊
I honestly had a hard time thinking of what to write so I decided to watch youtube videos on how to draw stuffs. I just put "how to draw flowers" but ackk hahaha I can't do it properly. Maybe this is the difference when drawing is your talent and when drawing is just an acquired skills. I mean, just so you know, I just learned how to draw when pandemic started. I can't draw without guide most especially traditional art, so yeah drawing is not my talent, I learned it (but not a pro okay??)
I first tried the tulips but after several attempts, I just created bunch of weird tulips hahaha. I remembered drawing different flowers before but without practice, my not so good hands forget all of it hahaha. What's with those eyes tho?
I didn't watch the tutorial of this and just copied the way it is drawn, this will look good if I know how to shade properly plus I should've use good pencil not pen 😌
This is better than the previous drawings (for me) but the attempt to highlight the nose bridge failed hahah I forgot I am using pen that is really strong huh?? I mean matala ganun sign pen ba tawag iPen yung brand. The chin is also weird hahah it's disproportionate and really evident.
This one's my fav that's why I decided to try and practice this one.
https://youtu.be/hjUvS5WMWgc
This is my reference, I changed some features and of course mine is not as clean and as beautiful as this lol. Now, I'm addicted to this channel hahah
After I did the trial 1, I tried redoing it and make it better.
I changed the writing on her jacket and added another balloon. I don't like her arms this time but I don't want to redo it hahaha. I also used cat ears but eventually changed it to circular headband because later on, it looks like a horn hahaha I didn't use pencil and directly use my pen, so redoing it will make me hmm feel tired and always unsatisfied. What kind of logic is that??
Tadahh The finished art. I want to draw more and I will surely share it to you guys. I'm so stuck at drawing digitally that I miss the trad arts and even painting ahhhh I think if I have money I'll buy water color or poster paint again wieehhh
This is an article written last night. I draw stuffs last night that made my fingers really dirty and messy but yeah this kind of dirt is what I love wieehh
Thanks for the visit!
13th Day of October marked the Last Day
Last day?? Last day of what?
Hello readcasherismbdhdjsn! We're almost done with the 2nd week of October, how's your goal so far? Are you getting closer to it?
I just finished reviewing basic math and I didn't do well with the end test. I have to review and practice more. I plan to review my chemistry tomorrow, probably read my big heavy book and familiarize with stuffs in there because I am nearly forgetting it ackkk.
Onaka asuita 😭
I am also hoping it won't rain tomorrow so our clothes will be completely dry. Mom need more uniforms for work.
October 13, 2022
Last Oct 11, the Chemical Engineering Licensure Examination commenced. It is a 3-day exam and today marks the last day of it. I'm not sure but I think, only chemical engineering have this long duration of examination (correct me if am wrong). For day 1 and day 3, examinees have 6 hours to take the exam and 9hours for day 2. Day 1 comprises of all the chemistry, day 2 comes with all our majors (chem+engineering, example: Chemical Reaction Engineering, Process control, Chem Process Industry etc.) and day 3 consists of all the engineering subjects and basic math. Mostly calculations (days 1-3) but there are also concept questions that seems to be out of this world haha (crying inside). We also have to bring our handbook during day 1 and day 2 because chem engr deals with lots of calculation that storing data in our brain would be impossible (mga constants palang kaloka na, lalo na mga graphs).
How's the exam?
They said it's hard, I think everyone expect it to be difficult tho. The thing is that, they focus on analytical chemistry only to find out there are more physical chem for day 1. I didn't know exactly but I know it's hard, I didn't take the exam hahah. I'll be taking it next year. I know God has plans and whatever the results (for my friends and for me soon) He's always in control. As long as you know you did your part, reviewing and all, let God take over ❣️
I actually didn't took the exam this month because I am not enrolled in Review Center and self study is impossible for an easily distracted potato like me hehe 🍠 I review stuffs but not consistent hahahah
One of the main reason why I didn't enroll is I feel pressured I feel like I'm not yet ready, but one thing I realized is that I will never be ready hahaha even though how much delay I do, it will not calm me when the exam comes. So yeah, promised myself to take on 2023 and will not delay anymore. Another reason is money problems, review center fee is no joke haha, 20k is not easily found plus I'm in the middle of fixing requirements for my graduation when the enrollment process (review center) started. So yeah stress patatas decided not to.
The result may be out 3 days or so, I'm kinakabhan din feeling nag exam hahaha
Ending my Article with a meme I can relate 😅😅 guilty as charged 😊
Thanks for being with me 💗😊
Snow and my $2 received from Noise.app

Let's start with this photo because this is the oldest in that album. I discovered this app because of this effects. I find it really cute, I won't be tired transforming my image into an anime character through drawing as this app has it.

I am about to sleep when I pushed my last two braincells to write and have an update here given that I am mostly absent during weekends.
Well, a short one because I am really sleepy acckk I will just share my art that supposedly publish in PeakD but yeah haha the challenge is done now, maybe I'll participate for this week.
So in HivePh community, they have #inktober challenge too. For the first week there are few prompts. At first I decided to go with landscape but I don't have creative juices from the last days so I went on with the prompt an anime character.
I draw this two anime characters from the the anime Days. It's a sport specifically soccer ⚽ genre. I love both of them and their character tho I forgot their names lol I draw them with reference and their bg is a free image from IbisPaint.
The finished art 🎨
I am honestly not satisfied hahaha but the anime is good hehe
So that's the only thing I can share for now, thanks for being with me✨🤗
Science Tutor Application
Give an important scientific breakthrough of the past 300 years
Science contributed significant accomplishments from the past until now. Several discoveries have led to progress and advancement that we are enjoying these days of our modern time. From theories, curiosity, and even accidental discoveries into series of inventions and innovation. The human mind is one of the most amazing creations enabling us to know various things.
From the past years, discoveries in the field of medicine have been developing rapidly. Several medical equipment are now being utilized and advanced methods are employed to help more people. Moreover, the medicines nowadays are continuously improving its effects to fight against disease or enhance health. In connection with this, one of the most important scientific breakthroughs of the past 300 years is the discovery of Penicillin. At St. Mary's Hospital in London, Alexander Fleming made the discovery of penicillin in 1928. The introduction of antibiotics as a result of this discovery significantly decreased the incidence of infections-related deaths. When Fleming got home from his vacation, he discovered mold on a Petri plate (which he left accidentally) containing Staphylococcus bacterium. He saw that the mold appeared to be stopping the nearby bacteria from growing. He quickly realized that the mold was producing a toxin that might kill germs as a form of self-defense. Peptidoglycan, a substance in the cell wall that gives the wall the strength it needs to live in the human body, is prevented from being synthesized by the bacterium by penicillin.
The question is, do we still use this so-called "wonder drug"? Penicillin is still widely use today. A lot of scientists and researchers did a lot of effort to scale up its production. Although some bacteria already gained resistance from this, there are still numerous bacterial infections that can be treated through penicillin.
My answer to 1/3 questions of being a tutor in Studypool. Dunno I just tried hahahha
There are three questions that I have to answer in essay form, so expect science articles for the following days heheh
Syncope
Have you experience fainting?
Most of the time, when we witness someone who suddenly faints, we are worried and think that it's serious. Same goes if we are the one who faints, because of course fainting is a sign that something went wrong inside our body.
What if you saw someone who faints often randomly?
What? Is it possible?
I saw a video on Facebook about a girl who randomly pass out-even when she's sitting, while talking, whatever she's doing when the syndrome attacked she'll faint.
This condition is called Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). After I researched about this condition, I found out that this condition commonly affects women and if both parents have this. This is also caused by a certain accident and is not easily detected.
*It happens when the autonomic nervous system doesn't work as it should. The autonomic nervous system is the body's "autopilot" system, controlling things like heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing.*
This condition, as stated, is connected to our nervous system and fainting is something we can't control, how much more if we have syndrome that make us faint a lot a day.
If someone have this condition, of course there are a lot of things that you can't do like driving, travelling alone, and such because it'll be dangerous. This girl in a screenshot says she can now sometimes predict if she'll faint allowing her to position herself in a way she won't endanger her body. Also, her family now is calm when this happen and it helps a lot. She's like falling asleep for a short time.
*POTS symptoms usually improve over time. Often, they'll completely disappear as kids grow. If a clear and treatable cause is corrected, the symptoms are likely to go away more quickly.* https://kidshealth.org/en/parents/pots.html
There are several ways to lessen the fainting or improve and it is possible to be cured. However, there are instances that it'll be difficult to cure completely as it is a long term disease.
Do you know someone who have this condition?
Back with some Medical Article my Doctor Heart is soooo happy hehe this article is somewhat sad for me because it's a condition limiting someone but made me admire them more for their courage to live despite the restrictions they have.
Thanks for stopping by ❤️
PS
Syncope is a medical term for fainting

First Weekend of October
First week of October WELCOME!!
I want to share just a random thing haha I don't know how I will write things or what to share because it feels nothing happened that's worth sharing.
Failed Coco Jam
Oh I remembered last Saturday, mom told me to cook Coco Jam because she bought sangkaka and coconut milk. Sadly, we don't have pili nuts but it's still good sana. Mom told me what to do, the procedure, ratio of water for the gata hehe. I put the coconut milk on the pan and heat it, after I cut the sangkaka into small pieces, I put it on the milk and let it dissolve and mix. Walang katapusang halo ituu mga bhiee hahah. My mom checked the status of the coco jam and she said it's not yet done, she instructed me to just mix it until it gets viscous. Mom went away that time and strictly told me not to overcook because it will be hardened instead of just the right sticky texture.
I did not know okay? hahahha na kapag kumulo na sya and medy nagsubside na yung bubbles okay na, inaantay ko na lumapot pa sya na parang jam na nga pero antagal huhu. Hanggang sa nasobrahan na ng kulo ayun nung lumamig naging matigas imbis na palaman hahah parang bumalik sa pagiging sangkaka imbis na maging jam lol
Sabi ni mama naging candy daw yung imbis na palaman lol failed palaman huehue pero masarap naman kainin as a candy haha next time alam ko na kung pano :))
White Day Sunday
The next day, Sunday, I attended Sunday Sermon together with my brothers and sisters in Christ. It is our first Sunday on our new church building so it is also a special day for us, because it is one of answered prayers. We decided to wear white most especially those who will sing. We're not yet an official choir but it's our first time to sing in front. I am nervous but happy because God gave me a chance to sing for Him. Even though we're not a perfect choir that will give you goosebumps, it doesn't matter, because we're singing for the Lord, not for people. In everything we do, if we do it for the Lord, it is beyond great and God will be happy for it.

This is how I spend the first weekend of October. Now, I am trying to catch up with the virtual world and at the same time do what my sister tasked me to do.
Let's all talk and interact 🙏💟
FDay
Rainy Sept 30,2022 from my side 🌧️☔
It's Friday again and again, and the rain is falling real hard. Like a lady bawling tears. Aww sad (whut ano daw??)
So yup a random update on my layfuu. I originally planned to write a science/medical article because it's been a long time, but babysitting my nephew will make it hard for me to focus. So yeah how's my Friday so far?
Oh wait, How's my Thursday first?
I went to my friend's house yesterday because she invited us to her lil sister's 11th birthday. At the same time, it's also her celebration because she's now a registered Agriculture and Biosystem Engineer yey!! Before me and my friends went to her house, we went to graceland to buy cake.
I really love the good vibe these plants give, may be weird it's located at the upper part of the wall but I love to stare at it while we wait for the cake.
Love the design around the light bulb too 💛✨
Then, we went to my friend's house and I thought there are a lot of visitors but I was surprised that it's only us and few family members. She said they didn't invite a lot of people.
Ahhh there are a lot of good foods but my stomach can just handle few, now I'm craving to all of it huhu.
That's the cake we bought, black forest ftw 🎂 we let them blow their candles and we bought separate cakes for them hehe.
She's the birthday girl, seeing her all grown up makes me feel so old 😭 mas matangkad na sya saakin nagyown huehue, parang last time she's just a babyyy
After we ate and did a lot of catching up, my friends dad who we call daddy, let us ride their car and send us home. They sent me at my sister's home tho because I will sleep here because my brother-in-law is on duty on the same hospital where mom works. It's also a good thing that my friend's dad know my bro in law because he is their ninong in my sibling's wedding.
Friday
So on Friday, which is today, I mainly babysit my nephew.
Actually, he's not difficult to babysit because he loves to play trucks and his cars after some time of watching on his TV. It gets difficult when he starts looking for his dad, because he is mostly with his dad because his mom (my sis) is the one who's working for them.
--
That's how my Fday (and ThDay) went. Yup Fday is just Friday haha bahala ka na kung ano naisip mo dayn 😆
How about chu how's your Friday? ✨
Artsy Thursday
[ Sept 29, 2022 ]
Is there anything you want to do but still can't start? This is the sign, do it NOW!
Hello friends from all over the world 🌍 How's your week so far? It's like a fast paced for me, it's already Thursday and weekends are now waving. I'm excited tho because we will have our Young Adult fellowship in our new church building yeyy.
My Article is just about my finished art that I just randomly draw from the past days.
I started drawing thi last Sept 18, 2022. She is my sister in Christ and we're of the same age. How've she's like more matured than me and childish than me sometimes hahaha. She's already working for years now because she's one of the last batch of basic curriculum (I'm first batch of K-12 curriculum).
She's like a career woman for me coz she work in the office and I really admire her. Sometimes she's more childish than me most especially when she is with our Pastor's son, because he's a bit mature (he's only 12 y/o) and a child at the same time and they can understand each other's trip hahah they're like real siblings.
It took me two days to complete coloring the lower portion. Of course continuing this just depends on my mood and busyness. I also color this while I am the watcher of my lola when she's in the hospital to avoid myself from getting bored.
I enjoyed coloring her shoes because I really love her shoes in real life. It's challenging yet I super love it hehe.
Today, I already finished drawing her and I am happy mweheh. I used free images for the background because it'll take me another weeks if I draw a background like this hahha. I draw this using IbisPaint on my mobile.
I sent it her and she's happy because I draw her even without occasion. Glad she appreciates it hehe 💛🤗
This is just another version, edited it using PicsArt but I personally like the original one hehe.
Thanks for being with me!
Home Visitation : A 45-minute hike
Last September 24, 2022 we visited one of our sister in Christ and also talk to her mom. Her house is so far from the centro and is located at the top of the mountain.
We went there via motorcycle (syempre tamang angkas lang ako haha) and ride for about an hour. The road is no joke, sometimes it's too small and as if a one way road and then since it's also a hill, the roller coaster ride is really felt. Imagine riding a way that is steep and then going down you have to take the curve route. It's thrilling for me haha I didn't get afraid with sight of the cliff.
I also enjoyed the part of the road covered with trees and we passed through roads with farm and palayan at the side, it's super provincial vibe.
When we arrived at the destination where we can park the motorcycle, we asked Mica's (my sister in Christ whom we will visit) aunt to lead us the way because we don't know. We are glad she agreed because we will walk far and she'll get tired but she didn't hesitated when we asked her to come with us.
Then, our walk started.
At first it was an easy trail because it's still the road and when ww entered the mountain there's a pathway. The challenge started when things get muddy and slippery.
We passed through a wide land of palayan, muddy trail, and a bridge with water flowing underneath. I also slipped when the hike becomes more challenging haha. Hiking up and then controlling myself as I go down, my shoes is not meant for hiking too that's why I slipped and my butt and legs hurt lol 😆
The experience was challenging, tiring, yet fulfilling 🥰. When we reached the top where sister Mica's house is located, I felt happiness and when I saw the smile on her face, all the tiredness went away. 💛
Her mom also welcome us warmly. I am amaze with how peaceful it is to live here. Even though we walk for 45 minutes or so with pur shoes and pants all muddy, it's all worth it.
I also played with this kids and try to talk and befriend them. Glad they open to me and told me their names and ages.
I also saw the Guava tree start to have flowers and itsy pretty.
We ate there and then after few minutes rest, we get back to get my brethrens' motorcycles for us to prepare going home. Another walk on the way home but it's easier. Imagine sister Mica walks that far just to come school and then gets back home.
Steady my heart
Our hearts can change. Our feelings change from time to time. We're sure then we're not, how can we trust this thing that seems to be unsteady.
They said follow your heart, but if my heart is full of pain and sorrow should I still follow it? Today I feel good tommorow I feel devastated, why is it so hard to keep the joy? It looks like I have to strive more to be happy even though some people are already happy with whatever they have. How can I keep my heart at peace if I want to strive for more, reach more, get more.
It's not bad to ask for more. The question is, what I am asking for? Riches? Fame? Material things? If I am asking for these things, it's not worth it at all. I should seek for eternal blessings because this world is not my home. This world will perish. Impossible it may seem but God is a mighty God that won't lie. If God will let this world perish then He is not a good God! Why can He let His people suffer? God wants people to seek Him, walk towards Him and close with His words. He is a loving God that wants everyone, every single person in this world to repent and believe that God already redeemed them, redeemed us. In that way, we can go to heaven and be with Him. Not with good works, not with religion, solely by faith.
Our emotions may change but God don't. Our feelings may be shattered but truth even if you flipped and turn, is still the truth.
Happy Monday 😀
Over the rainbow bridge
It was Tuesday morning 5am when I heard your mom's cry- frustrations, sadness, and anger all mixed up. At first I thought it's because of an unwanted visitor and she's just shoo-ing it away.
Few moments I heard my sister's voice and she's slowly shaking me saying "wake up". As I opened my eyes and ask her why, she mentioned your name. I then sit up and then stand, as I reached the kitchen my heart ached so much, I was shocked that no tears even came out. I saw you lying on the kity floor with blood all over your body. I don't what do, I called your name and you're already weak, not responding to me with any sound you usually make whenever I called your name.
Your mom is still fighting with the perpetrator, I immediately look for your siblings but I can't find them. I am afraid they were also attacked and it'll be more crucial as both of them are younger than you. My sister is just crying in the corner.
I slowly examine your stomach as I saw blood, fortunately you don't have wounds there. I started cleaning the blood to see where's it's coming from. Your eyes are swollen and red and there's blood in your nose and mouth, I can't handle this sight but I have to endure. Your hands are fractured too, so I put small bandage and put pressure to it. I put you to a cloth and let you rest, you seem so weak 🥺
When mom arrived, we tried to save you. But soon in the afternoon, you bid your good bye. You went there over the rainbow bridge I'll surely miss you Pharma, I had a great time with you even if it's just for a while. 🤍
To anyone who thinks, "oh it's just a cat"... Pharma is not JUST a cat, she's a family.
Curiouscat is also a busy cat
Thursday surely came so fast, weekend will welcome us again. What are your plans?
I think I've been inactive in all blogging platforms that I know from the past days. I have a lot of things on my plate lately but that's fine. This article will just be a random day report and random sharing of my past activities.
I recently shared that I went to the beach last Friday and until now my ears are so weird haha I mean I still find it hard to hear because of the water that entered ,y ear and maybe it was infected further when I try yo clean my ears using cotton buds. Supposedly, my ears will be check by the doctor yesterday but upon arriving at her clinic, the doctor is not around. Mom did not know that the schedule of check up there is only during Monday, Thursday, and Saturday so we will come back today and hoping my ears will be fine now.
Last Tuesday also, I visited my grandmother cause she's in the hospital. She have cough and was diagnosed with pneumonia, glad she is fine by now but the doctor told her she can't go home yet. The original plan was just to stay there the whole Tuesday afternoon but because there'll be no one to watch over her since my relatives have work and school, I volunteered to watch over her until the 2pm of Wednesday.
I also babysit my 2-year old nephew as I went home. At the same time, I encode the records my sister told me to do so. I have to double time because there are a lot of data to encode and I asked her an advance payment so I can have money for the check up hehe
What more?
hmm I think that's it for now, hope I'll write a more engaging article soon hehe thanks for stopping by :))
Vitamin Sea
Hello Beautiful ppl 💜🧡
Last Friday until weekend, I am absent here because yeah I went to the neighboring town to attend fellowship and listen to Words of God.
Our Pastor and his family together with 2 of my brethrens went to our house last Friday to visit me and my mom. After that they asked me to come with them and visit the beach near us. We first took a walk at SM (literally just walk around, we don't have money to waste haha), we just ate there and then granted the request of our Pastor's son to go to the beach.
They are actually ready, they have extra clothes for swimming I am the only one who's not informed hahah.
I took pictures of my brother and sister in Christ. They're both important to me and like my real siblings. They teach me a lot of things both in flesh and in spirit.
At first, I don't have plans of swimming but because they asked me to swim since this is a rare chance, I agreed with them. I swim wearing my pants acckk hahha
I love the clouds tho I know it's storm. I hope there are no fishermen who's in danger. I also saw lightning there.
She's the other sister who are with us. She's like one of my older sisters and I love her so much. I gain my strength from her faith and Christian Life. I am always grateful to God for her life.
This one's my favorite picture taken by my sister M (the one in the previous pic). I love her phoneeee specs, it's clear and can capture the scene well without adding effects.
We stayed there for about 1 and a half hour and then went to church since we have fellowship.
I enjoyed our quick visit to the beach even though I have a problem right now hahah because water entered my ear and I use cotton buds to clean my ear (I know I shouldn't huhu) so to cut the story short I have difficulty of hearing and I have to see a doctor hahahaha
Thanks for being with me!
Wednesday Night Photography
September 14, 2022
Happy Wednesday! I just want to motivate myself because reading a lot needs courage nowadays 😂 I mean reading story books and articles are fun but reading this 👇
oh wait give me motivation pleaseeee
So, I decided to go outside the house as I am locked here since Monday 😆 well that's how I like it hehe. Upon opening the door of course my not so fragrant doggo greeted me. *Ewan ko ba pag yung ate ko ang nagpapaligo dito di man lang tumatagal ng 2 days ang bango hahah samantalang ako eh minsan pa five days na bago sya mangamoy hahah*
Apaka dungis ayy his reaction tho hahah
He don't have a lot of energy to play so I just continue my walk alone. I didn't walk far haha just few steps from our house. I saw my cousin's cat and took a snap.
Such a cutie! Actually this is also Charlotte's (my cat) sister. She look like her mom so much but Charlotte is really different as their father is not the same haha Charlotte is older than this kitty. Sadly, their moma died just recently.
The next thing I took pictures are the flowers around.
I don't know the names of these flowers but they're all uniquely pretty. Thankful with mom's green thumb I have the opportunity to enjoy these variety. Mom have a lot plants even non-flowering plants.
I love the pattern of this plant. It's uniquely scattered and I feel its modesty. Sometimes I want to bite it hahahah
The next thing to take pictures is tantananan the sky! One of my fav subject.
It seems rain but it's not, I love how this big soft cotton candy-like clouds covered the sky. This is on the other side of the road and when I look up the clouds above our roof it's different. It's more scattered.
I'm in love with the silhouette of the trees 😌✨
I also took a photo of the road and the dark blue sky turning black as night will cover the surroundings in no time. I flipped my phone to capture this in a wider angle in case you're wondering hehi.
I've calm enough and have the motivation to read again so I decided to come inside. As I walk at the back of our house where my lola's house is located, I saw my lola's beautiful orchids.
Sooo pretty and big 🥰 now I know where momma get her green thumb ability mweheh
This will be my night photography, it's therapeutic indeed. To complete my motivational care for myself, I'll have a cup of coffee ☕
Thanks for being with me! Hope you enjoy this ✨🥰
*All photos are mine, raw and unedited*

Sept 13, 2022
*Tuesday na agad!!!*
Hello everyone 😊 I want to thank all those who greeted me yesterday (and to those who will greet) as part of adding another year in my age. I published before that I want to have at least a cake on my birthday. https://read.cash/@curiouscat/just-cake-cfeeac47
Yesterday I didn't celebrate my birthday with foods and bonding with fam. I am alone in the house as my mom and sister have work so yeah it's like a usual and normal day. I am sad that there's no ganap on my bday? Not at all haha aside from we don't usually cook lots of foods during my birthday, it's more fun to me to just spend it as a normal one. I just have to reply to messages and greetings but at least no more washing tons of dishes after the party hahah. From my article last time as I've said, I really wanted a cake I dunno why, like of I have enough money I'll buy at least small one but yeah I earned some from Rusty but I used it to more important thing so that's it. It's already late that time and I haven't bought anything for dinner, I don't how to fit my 50 pesos in viand and rice so I just waited for my sister.
My 4th sister came about 7pm and tadaha bought me a cake. I appreciate it that much 💛
Cravings satisfied!
After taking pic I sliced it and give some to my other sisters, and also we went to mom's work and give slices to her.
Full moon ✨ 🌒
The moon is really wonderful as it is last night. Glad I captured it even though my phone's specs are not that great mweheh.
Well that's it for last day's happening grrr I am officially a 23 yr old potato 🥔
Thanks for reading!
The Gift of Life
I'm one of those who literally ask, is life really a gift?
Life is difficult, dull, and full of problems. Yes, happiness and love will be felt but we'll always become problematic again and again. If life is like this, then I don't want this as a gift.
I just want to return it to the one who gave this so called present to me.
19 years of life full of joy and sadness. Even though I am happy I feel tired. So tired of chasing success. I always believed that I am not a worst person. I may not be kind but I am not worst. I study well to reached my dreams to have a very beautiful house and help my family live a comfortable life. 19 years and gained friends. 19 years full of adventure. 19 years but still, something is missing.
I thought praying to God is enough. Attending mass from time to time is enough. Participating to traditions of my religion is enough. I thought it's fine to commit small sins because my family will pray for me if I die since purgatory exists. I believe in God that's why I thought I'll be with Him if I die.
But the thing is, Satan also believed in God, but he won't be with God. I started to think, is believing that god exist enough?
All those things I thought "faith" were all wrong.
I'm afraid to die because I don't know what will happenned next. September 12, 2018 was my 19th birthday. Happy I celebrated it with my friends but November 4, 2018 changed my life.
I understood true faith. I am now sure that good works and religion will never be the way for me to go to heaven. Purgatory is not true, it doesn't exist and afterlife is only about heaven and hell. The most important thing I learned that time was God's perfect love through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on that cross. I don't have to accept Him as my personal savior. The only thing to do is have faith what Jesus Christ did on the cross. That His blood was poured for me and the whole world's past, present, and future sins and were all forgiven. Unending and perfect forgiveness.
Thank you Lord for the gift of life, the life that I received after knowing your love. My life is more meaningful now and my hope is only in heaven. Life is still full of problems but I have peace in my heart because I have Jesus.
Happy 23rd flesh birthday to me! And I am more excited to celebrate my spiritual Birthday 💛💛💛
Is there someone?
Is someone still looking at me?
If I am not blue nor yellow,
If I am not a mesmerizing view,
Is there still someone admiring my hue?
Is someone still taking pictures?
If I am not 'instragamable'
Nor a worthy picture at your wall
Or at least a space in someone's gallery.
Are you frightened if I look like storm?
When darkness start to embrace me,
And gray consumed the light around,
Do you still feel safe and sound?
I may not be pink, orange, or red,
I understand if you see me as dead,
Tho I hope, someone is still looking,
Even those who are just sulking.

When I say I love sky, this is what I meant. Even the darkest version of it is a beautiful sight to me.
Love you sky! You always calm me regardless of your state 💛✨
Stay Caffeinated!
Caffeinated People welcome aboard!
Caffein is not just present in coffee but also in tea
A lot of users here may know my love for coffee is like my love for myself. It's my form of spoiling myself and my comfort. I can't go on a day without drinking at least one cup. It seems unhealthy but I can go without breakfast but can't without coffee. I drink (be it hot or cold) at least 2 big cups a day. Do you love coffee too? or you prefer tea?
I am not here to discuss benefits of coffee nor it's unhealthy side most especially when consumed too much. I just want to talk about something that I love and also some life story about coffee. This may be a short article so let's just talk more on the comment section below.
Story Time !!
I remember when I was in daycare, maybe five years old, I am still bottle feeding by that time. Yes of course I already eat solid foods but still consume milk and chocolate drink from my feeding bottle (yung chupon haha). Since, my mom is not around and my dad is the one taking care of me, he bought me Ovaltine (naabutan mo pa to?) it's like an another version of Milo. He will place that choco drink in my bottle and then with biscuit aside. Then when I wake from afternoon nap that'll be my snack. I usually spend my afternoon alone in the house because dad have to work and all my 4 siblings are studying (I have school too but only during mornings). Yes yes and yes, alone in the house at 5 years old hehe. I know that I should not leave the house and I just play around but mostly I just sing out loud haha. I also know I should not touch any appliances. My dad trust me and of course we live in a compound so if ever I went outside I'll just visit my aunt and lola's house, I don't go far.
One time, I woke up not with the usual ovaltine inside my bottle feed. Instead of brown drink I saw a somewhat black drink. At first I hesitated drinking it, but as curious as I am I did, and it taste great! The next morning I smelled a familiar scent, I saw my dad drinking his usual cup and I realized what I drink yesterday is coffee not my Ovaltine. I didn't asked my dad why did he changed my drink but from then on it happens from time to time to the point I look forward drinking it. I thought I was already an adult as I am already allowed to drink coffee yey!
I was in high school when I was told that my bottle feed have coffee instead of my Ovaltine, whenever we don't have money to buy that Ovaltine. Coffee granules are much more cheaper that's why. I never thought that was the real reason behind however, I don't feel bad that I drink it as a kid haha. That's the start of my love for coffee I guess. As I grow older Dad would let me (sometimes force me huhu pampaganda daw kasi boses hngg) drink salabat (ginger tea) but I would always drink coffee in the afternoon.
Whenever I was reminded by my childhood alone moments I kinda realized the reasons why I love being at home more as I become young adult, how I love being alone despite having numbers of friends. 100% ambivert! (51% introvert hehe).
So yeah that's just my coffee story for today. I think the article gets longer than expected haha
Stay Caffeinated!
My curiosity reached PeakD
Happy Wednesday dear readcash users mwehehe how's your week so far? I have been inactive from the past days because of my job hunting and also writer's block I guess.
Well, I haven't landed any job right now but I am waiting for one position as an Admin Aide (oh pak office gurl), under research and development of a university from the neighboring province. I'm still waiting for their call for interview or next step that I have to do. Also, I received a message from Indeed App and one of the agency is inviting me for an interview for the position as a Virtual Assistant. But I haven't accepted their invite because I lacked a lot of gadgets to do so (webcam, noise cancelling headphones, wire to connect my laptop on router) and I haven't checked if my laptop's specs is good with what they require so yeah no work until now haha.
Hello PeakD
So after months of trying to decide weather to create an account and also blog at PeakD I finally decided to do it haha what took me so long? Well, I am considering if I can still manage it because I don't want to create an account then eventually leave or be inactive there (like what happened on my PublishOx acc lol).
Tadaahh I got my first follower who is none other than tentenene @Ruffa
Thank you sooo much again for guiding me and answered my questions muaps and also for the delegation ✨😊
Here's my first post and of course as Ruffa chan suggested, make an introductory post first and publish it on a certain community. I also followed few communities and so far I am also enjoying reading their articles. The difference here and on PeakD is that every actions need like power and whenever I comment and follow or any actions I do, my power (limot ko na agad term lol) is lessen but it will be recharge soon. I think this features allow user to carefully use it and not just randomly comment and follow others for the sake of follow to follow thing.
How do I start introducing myself? Now, my curiosity reached PeakD- don't worry tho it won't kill a cat https://peakd.com/hive-188409/@curiouscatho/my-curiosity-wont-kill-a-cat-or-introductory-post
My 2nd post is just a short one because I participated in a contest in one community. You just have to write 240 characters (includes spaces and per letter) about the prompt "Computing". It's fun and challenging to write a reallyyy short complete story or thought given that I am used to writing longer articles but glad I still generated something to use as an entry
I joined this challenge from Freewriters community ♥️✨ first contest I participated here in PeakD 😊 https://peakd.com/hive-161155/@curiouscatho/caroline
So far, I received small amounts of votes for my first day and I am exploring other features and I kinda enjoying it too ✨😊
What else?
My day is already going smoothly not until I found out my NSO/PSA copy of my Birth certificate is missing 😭 I am ready to go to SM city to apply for my National ID but sadly I don't have supporting docs to do so, that's why I just cancel the plan and tried looking for it but can't find. I asked my sister to order it for me via online, hope she'll let me borrow money too 🙏 since there's a corresponding fee.
So yeah, that's how my week so far. I am happy I managed to write here even though I feel kinda lazy huhy
Thanks for being with me!

When Things go Wrong Why do People blame Him?
Happy Sunday wonderful people of read cash. How's your weekend so far? Tomorrow is another day to start the week. Students and workers will be busy again minding their tasks.
When Things go Wrong Why do People blame Him?
This question actually cross my mind whenever I saw people blaming God whenever they experience difficulty.
I was reminded by one article that I saw before on the news saying "If God exist, why did this happened?". As I further my read I understand that 3 siblings died all because of lung cancer leaving their devastated mother grieving. If there's God, why did He allow such things? At some point in our life one may question, if God is a loving God why am I poor? Why I have disease without cure? Why my husband/wife leave me? If God is good, why did He let me suffer from all these?
When things go wrong, all people think about is why God make their life miserable.
Why?
Did God told them to smoke? Who knows if the underlying cause of that cancer is that they smoke? Did God really want us to have diseases? Have we checked our daily routine if we're taking care of our body? Are we sure that God is the main reason why we're poor? Or why we experience these hardships? Do we ever asked ourselves if my decision is according to His will?
God allows things to happen so we will come closer to Him not depart from Him. Even though our hardships are fruit of our disobedience and stubbornness, God allows these so we can learn and then ask for His help. Because without Him, we can't do anything. In every situation, let us think if we are in a training to be strong or it's just that this is the consequences of us trusting our own understanding. Some may not understand, we have free will-to love God or not. He who love the World, gave the great and amazing grace, we can choose to love Him or not. Trust or Blame.
We are free to choose
This article was supposed to be published yesterday but yeahh things happened hehu
Happy Monday!
From the back of my mind
"Our greatest regrets are not our failures, but our failures to try." - Adam Grant
Life is full of surprises. It may tear you down but there is always reason for you to be lift up. A lot of uncertainties, a lot of detour to travel. Sometimes I feel like I want to vomit because of the zigzag and curves but I still do enjoy my long journey called life. Stop over is necessary. Rest. There may be missed opportunities and failures but never dwell on it. The art of failing is that we learn, even sometimes we learn the hard way, the important thing is we always have the chance to improve. However, regrets are different. The pain of failures through time will heal but regrets of not trying takes longer time and sometimes even though we thought we already moved on, when certain things happen we then found ourselves thinking about it again. Countless what ifs, countless if only. The real failure is when we hesitated and did not give ourselves the chance to try. We immediately think that we can’t do better because of our doubts. Tim Stoddart also said “You must build up the courage to accept the short term consequences of ignoring the choices that don’t matter”. Things will always get noisy at the beginning of your journey, filtering out unnecessary noises will surely help you a lot. Filter those that don’t matter- doubts, hesitations, loss of confidence. These things will be noisy and will poison your mind whenever you want to start on something. Life must come with a level of priority. Which should be on the first spot and which should come last? All of us are given 24 hours a day, and no one can say they don’t have time for important things, it’s just that it is not part of their priorities. As what Nishan Panwar said, “There is no one busy in this world, it’s always about priorities. You will always find time for the things you feel important.”
thanks for being with me
Just cake
I have a lot of things in my mind. Been thinking a lot. Good things, possible things, how and when questions. I am also thinking about some problems, but I am happy I am not worrying.
***Is it possible? Thinking a lot but not worrying?***
Thinking a lot of things is different from overthinking. Thinking a lot is like there are bunch of scenarios that playing in you mind. On the other hand, overthinking is like worrying one scenario that resulted to a lot of what ifs.
My God is bigger than my problem
-this thought helps me and comfort me always
August immediately went passed. I got to ask myself how's my 2022 so far, and I am not that satisfied yet because my major resolution haven't been fulfilled. But, I am thankful God let me grow spiritually as I stay closer to His Words.
August 31, 2022 the last day of August. Last August that as a 22 yrs old earthling. September is fast approaching and adding one to my age is just around the corner. It's not that it's a big deal tho hahah. I don't know but thinking about my birthday makes me crave for cake. I want cake. Just cake. I don't expect and don't plan to buy foods to celebrate and we seldom celebrate my birthday with a lot of people too. But I never been this too eager to have some cake on my birthday. I don't know why hahah
I know I am not sure if I'll be able to buy birthday cake because I have a lot of debts to pay (reality hits, some personal things happened that lead me to borrowing money), and I don't have work yet too so yeah I'm not sure if Rusty will visit me as much as I need haha.
I have a lot of things in my mind, but the only thing that I can share with ya'll is me wanting cake on my birthday hahah
I am not worried, I am comforted 🌸
