When I am a billionaire
I'm broke. I want money.
Who doesn't want that? Literally, to be a billionaire is one of such great privileges that we can ever have. Some said, money can't give you happiness. Do you agree? Because I beg to disagree. It can, in so many ways may it be directly or indirectly. You cannot buy food if you don't have money, can you? Is having food on the table won't make you happy? Of course you would be. This just shows how money can give us happiness indirectly.
How about this. Ever since you were a kid, you planned to buy a house for your family. And because you have money, you can buy it for them. Isn't that happiness?
You also wanted to help kids and families on the street but you can't since you have your needs too. Perhaps you can help them but in just little way but who cares as long as you help. It would be so much wonderful if you do have money to help them and find ways to provide.
*But then again, these happiness are just temporary. Happiness from money would surely satisfy you but not in all ways. They will be just short-term. It is and always will be your contentment and the people you love can give you genuine happiness.*
Let me have another but.
BUT, that doesn't take away the fact that I want to be a billionaire, so freaking bad. If we will be given a chance, why not, right? That's why I dream of winning the jackpot prize in the lottery even though I did not bet on it. I also think about claiming money from remittances though no one sends me. Yeah, I'm not normal. I guess this is the product of daydreaming during night time.
I hope the universe will conspire and give me the chance to be a billionaire. When that happens, I promise to be a better man. But I doubt it will happen so I will just remain just as I am.
Let me tell you the things I will do when I become a billionaire.
**When I become a billionaire:**
I would give the street children a trip to Disneyland
Fine, including my little brother as well
Isn't it amazing? Seeing these young kids on the street barefoot just disturb my peace. I cannot be happy while seeing them endure the heat just to ask money from the people around. I want them to experience happy memories they can't forget. Who wouldn't be happy in Disneyland? Even us adults are excited to go there. Just imagine these kids playing around that dream place. What a nice view.
And when the day comes I am not a billionaire anymore, the memories will still remain in them.
I would pay for everything, as in all the bills during dinner dates
You know I would always like to split the bill in half between me and my date and so I want to experience paying the bill in full so my dates will not be missing in action just like the Tinder girl.
I will buy the most expensive bike so I will not sneak out the one my mom bought for me.
I hate asking for permission always when I want to go somewhere using my bike. Sometimes mom wouldn't let me so I will wait for her to be asleep so I can go without her knowing. This consumes most of my time, really. So I would rather buy another one, the expensive one just like what I saw during my adventure to see the Rich Family. (You can read it here.)
I will build bridges so there will be an ease of travel.
Philippines is an archipelago. You need to cross the sea in order to go to some places. Unlike other country which you just can travel by land. I want the travel to be more convenient to everyone for I know many here are so fond of going to places.
Travelling on land well lessen the hassle.
I will date Rihanna
Dang this girl is a goddess. I want to experience the feeling of being close to her and how's the experience when we stand under her umbrella, eh, eh. And also being with her in California King Bed.
I will take a picture together with all the Korean Oppas and have dinner with them
Yeah, I will do it so I would stand out. Why? Because all of them have fair and white skin while I don't. 🤣 That would be so nice. I'm the unique one. And in the future, I will let my wife see that pic and tell her that marked history. Lol.
Opps! I think I am taking too much of my money so I will just stop here and keep the rest to hold. I hope the gods and goddesses can hear this dream of mine.
**Hey! What do you wanna do when you become a billionaire?**

To all the girls I loved before
Wherever you go, whatever you do, just stay there. I will not be here waiting. Why should I? Are you my parcel in Shopee?
See I have been to a lot of troubles when it comes to dating. You can say it too if you happen to read about my Tinder dates. I think I had two other dates untold and might write about them one of these days. I don't know but I am not just so unlucky with dating before. I am open to any suggestions, if there's any.
I think I dated more than 10 girls already since I was in High School. This generation of mine is full of curiosity which led me to exploring. I regret what I did before and if I could go back to make it up to them, I still wouldn't because I don't want to stuck myself in the situation I am done with. They must thank me too because if I stay with one of them, that someone will have a bad fortune just as I am. Lol kidding! But yeah, I am not lying when I said, it's more than 10. My batch mates before would always bet on who's going to have more girlfriends and I joined in but I do regret it now. I was just a kid then, neo kiddilets. 🤣 And I did not took relationships seriously during those days. I started becoming serious in it when I entered college.
Now, I am planning to write an open letter to all the girls I loved before. And I also think of inviting my ex who likes to send me long messages for she can surely write an article and the one who likes to eat since she can write food blogs as per @Jher0122's advice. Lol. I am writing this since I can't message them one by one. I just hope this can reach them in whatever ways the universe will give.
**To all the girls I loved before:**
*I am sorry! Sorry is not enough. I know. If sorry is really acceptable at all times, why do we still have laws? But what can I do? I'm just a young boy, trapped in an man's body. Pursuing you was not my intention, it was just out of my mind's imagination. Imagination that I might felt love when I was with you. My friends are the one to be blamed for they called me lame because I don't have girlfriends for fame. Yes, for fame.*
*I am sorry if I let you pay during our dinner dates. I shouldn't do that in every dates. You ate a lot and got messy too but I did not wipe away that mess just like what movies do. I am just to shy to use my hand towards your face because I haven't washed them. I also want you to learn how to take care of yourself and not be messy when you eat because it's not always all the time you have someone with you at the table. I want you to be independent.*
*You should have let me explain in times you got angry, non-stop because, girl, you're just angry for nothing. You should have believed me when I say I was sleeping for I really am. You should have believed me when I said I will charge my phone for I really am. If only my mom let me, I will allow you to rent that one vacant room in our house so you can see that I am telling the truth. Over thinking sometimes, kills a relationship. And that's what happened to us. RIP relationship.*
*I am also sorry for those times you got angry only because I forgot our monthsary. Was it really necessary? Forgive me if I did not greet you those times. It's better to forget monthsaries than to forget you. You wouldn't like it.*
*Thank you for all the dates we made memorable. I enjoyed those times when you said you got butterflies when we're together so I hugged you but then you just shrugged and told me you're hungry. And so I brought you to the nearest drugstore, I mean restaurant. I am so happy with those days we held each other's hand but then the day came when you found out the truth about me. That I was just betting on you and you are so angry because I did not told you so you can bet on yourself too. Seriously?*
*To all the girls I loved before, I have so much to say but I will just keep this simple.*
***I am sorry.***
***Thank you.***
***I hope I'll never see you again because I know you wish the same too.***
Sincerely, but not yours,
John

Exes and why's
This evening, I am still not feeling well. I feel like my fever worsen. I almost had all the gel capsule in one packet done but then the feeling doesn't subside.
I just want to rest today but my mind keeps me awake as I am scrolling on Facebook watching some videos. I know I should have slept but, nah, I really can't. I just hope this evening will be a good one for me and this sickness will vanish tomorrow. I am not so used to being just in one place.
Oops! This is too much for the introduction, I guess. Let me finish this very quick. I opened read.cash at 8 PM and I saw that my article was published one day ago and that means I need to publish again. But, my mind is not working properly, well my mind is not working so well ever since but who cares? I need to write now or else my day would be just a waste.
I was just so happy when I came across Ms. @Marinov 's article today which talks about her exes. You can check her writing out, just click the link below.
Link: https://read.cash/@Marinov/types-of-exes-8b2c52db
She wrote four types there and among the four, I think I belong to the "shy type of guy". 😌
Alright, after reading her article, I got the idea of writing about my exes too. I'm sure this is going to be so much fun. I can still recount some of the few exes I got and categorize their types. It's just so nice yet awkward to remember those times when you are with someone who you thought would be your forever. Geezz I can still feel the chill when I told someone before that we'll make a family.
Let's get started, pips! I will only write 3 types of exes I got since I am not really feeling well. This article might as well be short.
The big boss
I don't remember I was applying for a job but why this girl is controlling me like my mom? And ordered things like a boss. You're lucky if you haven't been into this type of person when he/she is controlling you too much. Telling you what's the right thing to do is not bad. What makes it not good is when they want you to do things exactly what they want.
I remember we had an argument (my ex). She sent me messages that are almost 600 words. It's fine it's only one message. But then I got five. So 600 times 5 is 3000. I read a 3000-word message. And it was all about me not being able to reply just because I was asleep. Is sleeping a crime now? I told her I was asleep but she kept on accusing me something that I didn't do. Oh girl, calm your mind.
I don't want to add oil to her raging flame so I did not reply. Minutes after, she blocked me on Facebook and on every social media where I can reach her. I just let her be. An hour after, she unblocked me and sent me a message to accept her friend request.
The way she told me that is very bossy. She didn't even said sorry. And because I love her, I did not accept her friend request. It's better if she'll find peace within herself first. Sorry, girl.
It was 2 years ago but now I am thinking to invite her on read.cash too since she's eager to type long messages. 🤣
Food lover
I love eating too but this girl, one of my exes, loves the food so much. Until now, I still wonder if she loved me at all. What I like about this girl is that she was just so simple that sometimes, she don't comb her hair. Well, it's fine with me. She always wanted us to see each other every night and I was so excited during the first date. I went to the place where we would meet and saw a girl eating beside a huge paper bag. I came closer and found out that it was her, munching large fries with cheese messing her mouth. She even gave me but then I refused for it might not be enough for her.
I want to know her more like deeper but everytime we contact, she would always talk about food and places she wanted to go just because of the food. I told her if she was really interested in me and she said yes, and said she's more interested about food. And so I let her go and find peace with her food.
Sadako
There's this one ex who always startle me like she will just come near me unexpectedly like a mushroom. Even though I didn't told her where I am, still she knew and found me in one place. One time, we had a date just outside their home since her parents are strict. When she came outside, she was searching for something on the ground. I don't know it was her since it's dark and the flashlight was just focused on the ground. As she was searching for something, her long hair covered her face making her look like Sadako.
I was about to run when she moved the flashlight to my direction. Then I realized it was her. I just faked a smile and composed myself to go back to normal. Sadako girl is fine but not until she called me to stay with her in their house.
Until tomorrow, pips. Gotta rest! Let me hear you in the comment section.

@gwapojohn
Sorry, I am out today.
What a busy day! I did all the household chores today even though I am not supposed to be. Truly, doing household chores has no gender. Being a man doesn't mean I will not move in the house even though I can. Cleaning is easy but tiring. Cooking is easy too if with guides from YouTube. Washing clothes is very much okay because I have my friends, the washing machine and the dryer. I'm okay doing those chores because that's how I can repay my parents for everything. Without them, I will not be here writing now and telling you my life's story. Though it's not that interesting but still, you support me all the way.
I felt much love with your responses from my previous article, which is Because I am happy. Your feedbacks are all motivating and I can feel the love from everybody here I know. It made me realize that my writing is worthy of reading. Thank you so much pips. With that, I am inspired to write though I am not really feeling well. https://read.cash/@gwapojohn/because-i-am-happy-82afc89d
Yesterday, my mom asked me to buy my little brother's medicine since he's stomach is aching. He's crying so hard that led my mom to panic. And now there's the two of them who seem to be like patients. My little brother is crying and pointing something in his stomach while my mom was throwing up since it's her body's reaction when she got nervous. Sometimes I found my mom over-reacting because she cried whenever my little brother is hurt. She already knew that she has hypertension and it's not good for her to panic. But nah, who am I to judge? I'm not a parent yet so I won't understand her.
I guess that's woman's nature to cry easily when someone dear to them is not in a good condition. But there are also woman I know who don't show their emotions.
I remember one of my exes who was so good in keeping what she felt. We broke up but she did not showed any sign of being hurt. I was expecting her to be upset and with teary eyes but when I said,
***Let's pause for a while and enjoy our lives without each other.***
I waited for her reply like the common reply of girls during break-ups. But she just said,
***Fine. Enjoy then!***
I was quite shocked by her response. I don't want to keep the conversation long so I deleted her number and did not text back. I saw her posts on Facebook and I didn't found any sign of sadness. And now I felt like I was the one who's sad because of the break-up.
That's when I realized that not all women are the same. My mom is vulnerable to pain while the rest is not. Anyway, that's their choice.
Going back, my mom asked me to buy medicine even though it was raining. I cannot complain since it's for my little brother. I hastened to the nearest drug store and bought the medicine. I almost forgot what's the name of that medicine but glad I wrote it in my notes. Haha! I don't want to get spanked again. Especially it's raining too! It's too inconvenient to go back and buy the correct one.
When I got home, my little brother was still crying and my mom was still in panic. Glad that my aunt was there to help. My dad was not around because he's at work. So I was left at home and did his duties.
Glad my little brother was okay after an hour with the help of the medicine. I also told my mom that her weeping cannot help the situation. It's just my brother who's sick and now it ended to be her as well.
When everything was okay, I went back to my room and laid in bed. I was feeling so uneasy and a little bit hot. Well, I'm hot tbh. Lol. But seriously, I am not feeling well. My head is heavy and I felt dizziness. I guess this is what I got from being soaked in the rain. I immediately rose from bed and took some medicine too. After few minutes, slumber took over me.
Now I woke up and I realized something. My little brother's stomach was aching after eating my champorado. Wait, was it because of my champorado? 🤔
P.S. Sorry for this non-sense content. I am not really feeling well. I would rest for a bit. And I would ask for an apology if I will not be able to read all your articles. I will make it up as soon as I get better.

Because I am happy
My champorado recipe had reached many here. I am glad that you consider my cooking as something edible. Right, ma'am @FarmGirl? 😁 I also want to acknowledge Mr. @TengoLoTodo for advertising my champorado in his recent article, "Once upon a Time in a." https://read.cash/@TengoLoTodo/once-upon-a-time-in-a-e754daaa
Do check it out, guys.
My champorado yesterday was a success though it doesn't look nicely, it tastes heavenly. You can make one in your homes too! I'm sure you're missing the taste of it especially for those who have kids. Like me, I have a kid, my little brother but then he doesn't like the color of champorado. I was thinking I should put a blindfold on him while eating. What a crazy cute kid!
Alright. How's everyone today? Let's make today special and fun. Despite misfortunes, let's choose to view life in a brighter side. I had a lot of misfortunes but then I did not make them as long-term problem. If I can't solve a proble, I let my mom do it for me. Lol. Just kidding! I will just let it be and not worry much about it. They're just problems and we can solve each one of it for they can't be called problems if they don't have solutions. So let's just be positive (in life).
*Even if my mom always scold me against my little bro, I still understand her even if she looks like Ursula sometimes for being too mad at me.*
*Even if my dad don't talk to me sometimes because I did not let him borrow my helmet, still I respect him because I know he will talk to me later and ask me to read the message he received from his boss. And then we will be okay and he will again borrow my helmet. And the process repeats.*
*Even if my friends are still continuing their studies and I am not, I still choose to be patient and calm and just be happy for them.*
**I remained happy despite everything. And you must too. Life is short so why make it happy rather than being lonesome? As what Hellen Keller said,**
**"Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties."**
Do allow me to share my simple ways to be happy
Focus on the positive
This is the very first step to happiness. Refrain from thinking too much about the negatives. You won't gain any from it. Always have a positive mindset everyday that you are about too look after of like saying "Today is an amazing and so am I." What you think, is what you attract. So if you think you are handsome/beautiful, then you will be. If we think of the opposite, our body adapts too for our brain controls our body.
One example is when you know already that your mom will scold you for partying late at night. Just think of the positive side. She's still your mom and she would not let you leave the house but you just have to undergo the extreme of their wrath. After that, you'll be okay so you can go to party again after 3 days. Lol.
Celebrate small wins and always be grateful
Small success is still a success. Cooking the rice perfectly fine is a success so be happy about it. Making your niece/nephews cry is a success too! Just kidding. What I really mean is that we should be grateful for every little thing we accomplish. Making our family happy is an accomplishment and we must be grateful for we are the reason why they're happy. Let us stop comparing our blessing to other people's blessing. God has reasons why He gave us things differently. If we see someone who has better life than us, then don't complain about yours. Do something about your life to make it better or even the best.
Accept imperfection
Nothing's perfect in the human world so don't ever consider someone rich that he/she has a perfect life for we don't know what he/she's been through just to have the life he/she currently have. They just work really hard for their dreams that's why it may seem perfect that they have a life we would want. If they can, we can too!
We are not born perfect so don't try to be one for you might end up wanting for more. Accept that life is imperfect and know that there is beauty in that imperfection.
Please excuse me this time for I need to cook rice again. It's almost 11:00 AM. Haha! Back to duties! I'll get back later.
Let me know about your ways to be happy too!

Sunday morning, rain is falling
*"Sunday morning, rain is falling*
*Steal some covers, share some skin*
*Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable*
*You twist to fit the mold that I am in"*
The music from our neighbor woke me up early this morning. Are you familiar with the song? That's the song of **Maroon 5, "Sunday morning"**. The song fits just right because today is Sunday and yes, it's raining. The weather is gloomy and I can feel the coldness from the outside. Oh, how I missed this feeling. I also woke up happy because of the song. That's one of my favorite songs that I mostly sing in the karaoke. Well, I like all Maroon 5 songs because why not? They're all dope. Their songs don't get old.
I rose from bed and went to the kitchen too see what is mom cooking. But, she didn't cooked any. And being a good son, I prepared breakfast by myself. Since it's raining and and it's cold, I made 'champorado'. Champorado is a chocolate rice porridge and is one of the most favorite breakfast or sometimes snacks of Filipinos. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.kawalingpinoy.com/champorado/&ved=2ahUKEwiJhKz6uqHyAhXGdXAKHdHRAwkQFnoECCoQAg&usg=AOvVaw2c2ui1gajC_YMxYixfNDRi
It's my first time doing this so I watched some cooking tutorials on YouTube. It's easy. Please let me allow myself to be a MasterChef this time. I promise this one is serious. Alright. So let's start with the ingredients. It just depends on you on how you cook your champorado but I will just show you mine.
**Ingredients**
1 cup glutinous sweet rice or just the normal rice you cook
½ cup cocoa powder
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup powdered milk (optional)
Evaporated milk
**Steps**
**Step 1**
Put the rice in the pot. Wash and rinse it first. Since we only have 1 cup or rice, just add 2 cups of water. Bring it to a boil for 10 minutes and stir gradually to keep the rice from sticking into the pot.
**Step 2**
Add the cocoa powder, powdered milk, sugar and salt into the rice. Continue stirring until the rice will be cooked and tender. Do it for at least 7-10 minutes or depending upon your choice. I would prefer mine to have that thick mixture so I stir it occasionally for 10 minutes and add water if needed.
When it is cooked already, serve hot and don't forget to top it with evaporated milk! Bon appetit!
My finish product is not that pleasing to the eyes haha but it really taste so chocolatey.
I was about to enjoy my champorado when suddenly, mom came in with my little brother. She asked me what I did there and I just pointed at the champorado. She asked my little brother if he wants to eat it, but then little brother refused because he doesn't like the color. See? That's why I want to get rid of him sometimes if only mom is not here. Mom told told him there's nothing else on the table so he has to eat it or else he will starve himself and he can't watch Adventure Time anymore. My little brother cried. Lol!
Since it's raining, I decided to just stay at home and locked myself in the room after I eat. I just spent my time browsing and watching videos on Facebook and YouTube. I got bored but then I remember it's 8.8 sale today on Shopee and I would surely have discount voucher on my purchase. I searched for some visor stickers (to be placed on my helmet visor) and luckily I found one that suits into my liking. Oh well, so I placed the order immediately without double checking it. Man, I ordered two sets of the same stickers. 😏 This is what I am telling in my article yesterday, 'Are you in hurry? Go ahead!' https://read.cash/@gwapojohn/are-you-in-a-hurry-go-ahead-cc6df235
I don't have a choice since I placed it already and I can't change anything about it.
Lesson learned AGAIN: We must not be in a hurry.
But there are situations that we need to do quickly like when someone's outside the bathroom telling you to do your thing fast inside because he/she needs to let out everything too. I hate that part. But I need to hurry for that someone might leave a bomb outside.
It doesn't happen everyday. So, again, don't be in a hurry if you're not Harry.

Are you in a hurry? Go ahead!
* Commercial break *
I have seen a beauty pageant for trans-woman. The judge asked one of the candidates.
If you will die tomorrow, why not today?
The contestant answered,
I'm not in a hurry, are you in a hurry? Go ahead!
I just can't forget how mean the question was and how witty the candidate answered it. Lol. The judge just nodded and looked pissed but then it's his fault for giving that kind of question.
* End of commercial break *
Welcome to the serious side of me
It is inevitable that we hurry things to get done sometimes. Who doesn't want to get things done right away? Hmm. There are also times when everything seemed wrong just because we chose to do things in quick way comprising the quality. Well, that's what some of us do especially like me, being a college student still. Deadlines are supposed to be dead but why we chase after it? Just kidding but yeah, I hate deadlines but those deadlines are what make us keep going sometimes.
*We work because of deadline. Consequently, we do the thing in a quickest way we possibly can.*
Being the eldest, I was the one who helped mom and dad with the household chores. I cannot complain because if I will, where would I live tomorrow? So I just said yes even if I really don't like to move sometimes. One time, my mom told me to cook rice. I was watching my favorite anime, "One Piece" when she told me that. She's busy doing the laundry so she won't be able to do it. I don't want to miss a thing so I hurriedly do the cooking. I put 3 cups of rice in the rice cooker, washed and drained, water it according to how many cups the rice was and had it placed in the cooker.
My mom finished the laundry at exactly 11:21 AM. My little brother was hungry that's why mom asked me if the rice was cooked already. It must be cooked since it was an hour since I put it there. To my surprise, I did not press the button downward for it to be cooked. As a result, the rice was still uncooked and my mom became a tiger, literally scary.
**I was in a hurry, forgive me mom I am so sorry. 🤣**
There was also a time during an exam when I mistakenly submit my classmate's answer sheet rather than mine. It was in history class and I really hate history classes. The exam was all about dates and I'm too bad in memorizing, tbh. We were only given 1 hour for 70 item exam. There was only 10 minutes left before the submission but I have not yet answered the Test 1 since again, it's all about dates. I can't manage to live it blank since that part of test is 10 points. What I did was I copied from my seatmate but then his writings were too small and I can't see it. Five minutes left and I'm still in number 3. I can't take it anymore so I grabbed his answer sheet and copied the answers. When it was the time to pass the answer sheets, I mistakenly submitted my seat mate's answer sheet which made my teacher stare at me like I am a criminal. I immediately went back to my seat and got mine and submitted it.
**I was in a hurry. Sorry, ma'am. I just grabbed the wrong paper.**
And today, I was also in hurry. My friends planned yesterday that we will go to the beach just next to our town. It was agreed that we would go there early so we can go home in the afternoon as well. And because I slept so late at last night, I woke up late the next day. I just received a message that they are already there. Goodness I haven't even brushed my teeth or washed my face. But then I don't want to get any longer so I just do my morning routine quickly and went there.
On my way, there was a checkpoint but I confidently passed by it since I have all the documents - my license, motorbike registration and all. I was surprised when the police called me by to stop and so I did. They asked for my license and told me why I was not wearing my helmet. Pete's sake! I forgot my helmet. Because of that, I got a ticket and was charged for not wearing proper gear specifically helmet. My mom would kill me this time. Lol. So I did not let her know. I just went back home and got my helmet so I can go there already to the beach. I am so late.
*I am in hurry that's why bad things come quick too. If only I did took my actions orderly, I would not be charged of something and pay for it. Another lesson for you, John.*
*Now I'm on the beach but then my mind was on the price I am going to pay. How could I enjoy?*
Hey you, are you in a hurry too? Go ahead!

The family that prays together, stays together.
Does it sound familiar to you?
**The family that prays together, stays together.**
We often hear it from somewhere and reflect if we have a family that also prays together. I believe, prayer is powerful and thus, we must pray not to ask something but to thank God (or any superior depending on what kind of religion we have) for all the things He has given. We might not be worthy of His blessings sometimes, but still, He gave us what we need unconditionally.
But what does it mean when we heard this: **The family that prays together, stays together.**
Does it mean we pray together in one place or praying even if we are away from each other? Was there really a place intended for praying? Does my prayer unheard if I did not pray at the proper place?
My family doesn't pray together in one place but I am certain we pray individually at a certain time of the day.
*(Note: Everything that's written in here are just my opinion. I'm not against any religion or belief. I respect diversity of our belief and I do respect if your belief is different from mine. After all, we do have a great difference as an individual)*
Why am I so serious here? 😁 Just trying something new. I want to take a pause from writing about online dating and Tinder things. Haha! I am happy that I got comments and advice from there. I admit, my imagination is kinda naughty and my thinking is fluctuating sometimes. I can't think of just one idea to write on. As of now, I want to write other things. Lol. But I want to finish what I wrote above.
Alright. Let's go back to where I left.
My family is not the type of family who always go to church. In fact we just go there together when there are special occasions like Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, and Holy week. But when mom and dad were not busy, we would go for sure.
I am open for any judgment. Some of you might say that we should make time or my dad or mom should allocate time for God even just for a day. Yes! You can say that. But do understand we have different situations and judging each other for not being into church always is not fair. Some might say are we against the religion? And some might also say our Faith in God fades.
And who gave us that judgement? **Those who are always at church.**
I'm not saying all of them but believe it or not, there are just people in our place who seem to be hypocrites. Sorry about the adjective. We just can't really deny that we have that kind of people in our place. I'm not mad at them, I'm just disappointed because they are always at church so they should have the wide understanding and compassion towards people.
My mom and dad taught us to thank God and pray everyday. We are not encourage to just pray if we need something. It must be everyday for everyday is a blessing. We might not be praying altogether but we sure stick together as one family.
I believe prayer should be accompanied with actions too.
What are the things that I am thankful with?
My life
It's my life. It's now or never. (Kidding!) Being born in this world and have this life is my biggest blessing from the Creator. Because if He did not gave me this life, I would not be able to see the beauty of His creations and experience love in any forms.
My family
Family is life too. Though my mom is a noisy rapper, she takes care of us everyday but yeah she's noisy again. And also my little brother, though he's so naughty and annoying, I still love that kid for I can ask him favor sometimes like getting my slippers, and sneak some money from dad. Hahaha! Just kidding! And my dad, I'm thankful about him too because he supports the family and do everything for us without complaining.
With that being said, I always pray that my family is always at safety. But I feel guilty if I only pray for my family's safety so I include everyone in the world.
I pray for this pandemic to be over.
Who doesn't want that? I miss the old days when everything are fine. The face to face classes, the family gatherings and not having the fear or going outside. I pray everything will get back to normal so I can go out with my motorbike again without a time limit. I want to be free again.
There are many things that I pray of and thankful for. Hindi nga lang halata. Hahaha!
Even if we pray individually or together, that is still prayer. What's important is we pray wholeheartedly.
(Oh yeah, I survived being serious in this article LOL)

Tinderella
Yesterday's experience about the girl I met on Tinder was not good. Oh well, I realized that I have done wrong too. I should have acted nicely and not let her pay a half for the food we eat. Sorry! I just know dating but not the proper way to date.
So after that fart incident with the Tinder girl, I never saw her. I was thinking of blocking her in any means she can reach me but then she did it right before I can. Does she feel bad about me? Perhaps she might told about me to her friends.
*Oh well, I am so sorry Tinder girl.*
*If we happen to cross each other's path, please turn to the opposite direction.*
After that encounter, I tried my luck again on Tinder because my friend kept on telling me I should try again. By the way, he's very optimistic about the app because that's where he found his girlfriend. He's so lucky and he wants to apply his luck to me. He told me that I can't catch a fish by first try. He was so persistent because he wanted me to have a girlfriend that time so I will know how to date properly. He even told me letting the girl pay is a major turn off for them. Is it true?
Alright so I tried my luck again on Tinder. I looked for profiles there and expect too see someone different. One girl really caught my attention. I don't know but when I saw her profile, my eyes were glued on her. So her name is Cindy.
That's her profile on Tinder. She looks like Cinderella, isn't she? The modern Cinderella. I guess that's why Cindy was her name, short one for Cinderella.
So I swiped right and immediately she liked me back which made me messaged her.
She then replied and we got to know each other online. Cindy said she is a Teacher and is currently handling Sea Navigation classes. I was amazed because we have those subjects too since I am a BSMT student. I did not ask which school she's in because I was just so interested to meet her. Since she has a job, it means she can pay and there's no way she would run leaving me behind.
We set up our date and agreed to have a dinner at Jollibee. (Jollibee is one of the famous fastfood chains in the Philippines) Seriously? Jollibee? Well, yeah. She chose that. We agreed to meet at Jollibee at exactly 6 PM. But then I realized that we will have an online class at 7:30 PM and it will be via Zoom since it's the very first time we will be meeting the new teacher. I feel so tired about online classes so I decided I will not attend since it's just getting to know stage or introducing oneself.
I was at Jollibee 30 minutes before the agreed time of meet-up. I just wore casual clothes since the restaurant doesn't require any formal attire. Minutes later and Cindy came. I was astonished because she seemed to look like she's going to attend a Junior's and Senior's prom. She was dressed with a long, red gown making her camouflage with Jollibee's red theme. Oh my! But she's so gorgeous.
I offered her seat and we get to know each other personally. I can tell she was really a teacher by the way she talks. I don't know if it's a date or face to face class since she's been teaching me how to use "prepositions" correctly. 🤦
To cut it out, I told her we must have something to order. I ordered pasta and burger but she just ordered fries. Oh well, at least the bill would be cheap.
We just talked to each other while eating. She asked for my real name and she also told me hers. When I heard her name, it was really familiar. It seemed like I heard or read it somewhere. But nah, nevermind.
After an hour of being together, someone called her which made her restless. She told me she had to leave since she will be a having a class which she totally forgot. She hurriedly stand and leave a money for the bill then she ran fast making her leave her sandal's other pair.
I chased her but then she immediately called a taxi and went inside. I picked her sandal so I could return it to her.
**What a Tinderella! (Tinder, because I met her on Tinder and Ella is from Cinderella since she looks like her and she also left her shoe)**
I went back inside Jollibee and chatted her.
Hey, my Tinderella. I have with me your shoe. I guess our love story is a kind of fairytale.
She did not respond.
Meanwhile, my classmate sent me the Zoom link for the online class. I was bored that time since Tinderella had left me so I decided to attend the class. I clicked the link and it routed me to the class. I saw my classmates there and I also saw someone familiar.
What is the chance in heaven that Tinderella was our new teacher too! Ohh my that's why her name was so familiar to me. 🤦 She was shocked to see me too but she continued since she's the teacher.
I left the class or the zoom room and went back to messenger so I can unsend the message I sent her but then she has already seen it!!!!
**Now my Tinderella gone wrong!**
Should I request for another teacher or just drop the subject. Lol!

And I never saw her again
After that Netflix and Chill with the Pension House Girl, I never responded to her. She's a dang goddess but I don't want to be a third party. All I want is to attend to a birthday party but not that kind of party with Pension House Girl. I blocked her on every means she can contact me.
And I never saw her again...
I was bored that time after our vacation. I just stayed at home then went out if there's something mom and dad would let me buy. My friends are busy too with their own lives spending with their boy/girl friends. I don't have one that time so my life was boring and I was just too young that time. I know how to date but not the proper date.
One time, my silly friend invited me to create an account on Tinder. I was not familiar what that app is so he explained that it's a dating app where you can find your match through swiping to the right.
(Click here 👉 Tinder) https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.techadvisor.com/how-to/software/tinder-3515013/%3famp
He also said there are a lot of hot girls there that I can date. That has gotten my attention so I asked him to create my ID there for I don't know how. Minutes later, he gave my ID and I installed the app and logged in.
As I am exploring the app, I saw many beautiful faces along with their captivating bios. I can even hardly choose which girl should I swipe right to get my match. When I saw someone extraordinary, I paused for a while and looked at her profile. She was beautiful and seemed sweet so it's an auto-swipe right for her. Few moments later, I got a notification saying that we matched so that means she likes me too. Because of that, a simple messaging function popped up and I sent her my greetings.
Me: Hi, I like the sunset there as your back ground but I like you more.
Her: I'm more beautiful than sunset. XD
That's how our first conversation started. She was actually beautiful and talkative. We're also near from each other so we decided to meet up after three days of constant communication.
I told her to wear something red so I can easily recognize her which she then agreed. She also let me wear something stripe so I just said yes. It will be more convenient for us if we will see each other quickly.
**The Meet-Up**
We agreed to meet up in Heaven's Gate Cafe at exactly 6 PM. I was there already at 5 PM and she was there at 4 PM. We just waited for each other until 6 PM came. No one even dared to ask if anyone of us is already there. Oh my is this a sign that she was just as foolish as I am that's why we matched? Scratch that. I don't want to ruin the moment.
At exactly 6 PM we both messaged each other and found out that she was just there sitting at the other partition of the cafe that's why I did not see her. I went to her immediately and found her there drinking some fine wine and is wearing a red, polka dot dress. Wait, it's not yet New Year but she's wearing polka dots.
I just did not mind the dress and just enjoyed the night with her. We just said hi and introduce each other formally. I called the waiter so we can order but she said she already ordered for the two us. Oh well, she must be so generous to order for us and I was also thinking she would pay for what she ordered.
The order came and the food looks expensive but I did not mind since she's the one to pay for it. I was so happy that I can save money for this date.
As we eat, we exchange jokes and I just realized how loud her laugh was. Her jokes are not funny but the way she told it makes it funny so it made me laugh. In short, she was easy to get along with it. After an hour, we decided to go outside to breathe some fresh air so she called the waiter for the bill. When the waiter was there with the bill, she pointed her finger at me making the waiter to give me the bill. I was shocked because she's the one who ordered everything but she let me pay for it. This was not part of the date we agreed upon. And take note, the food she ordered were too expensive.
I told her I will pay if we will divide the bill between the two of us. She refused the offer and questioned me what kind of a date I am. I told her that I did not expect this date with her would be too expensive. She was annoyed and she told me that she needs to go to the comfort room first. I agreed because I can't follow her there too and she also promised to go back.
When she was about to stand, she farted so loud that even the next table heard it.
She just stared at me like nothing happened and then she hastened to the comfort room. Oh my! What did I got myself into. Well, maybe she's just too full that's why she released the energy.
I waited for her for thirty minutes. The waiter came back for the payment but she was nowhere to be found so I paid the bill myself. Glad that I bought my ATM card with me because my cash was not enough.
**And I never saw her again...**
If you were in my shoe, what would be your reaction then? Would you still find the girl? Or just let her slip away like I what I did to the Pension House Girl?

Pension House Girl
It was already 2 years when I met someone who I am so disappointed with. I believe it's my fault but it's hers too since she's the one who message me first. I am a good boy 😌 so I don't do the first move because some girls might think of it as rude. So I just stayed silent.
That meeting happened when I was looking for a pension house to stay for 5 days. I need to stay on that place since me and my friends are on vacation that time and I don't want to stay and sleep in a tent for 5 nights. Imagine how hot and uncomfortable it is. So I told my friends that I would just sleep in any boarding house, lodge or an anywhere that I can sleep comfortably. I will be with them during day time and until we all decided to sleep. It was a long vacation so I need to be in a place where I am most comfortable and at peace.
My friends were having a second thought because they want us to be all together but I told them mom would not allow me if I will sleep in a tent every night. My friends knew how dragon my mom is so they agreed otherwise I won't be able to join them.
So there, I posted on my Facebook if anyone knew about a certain pension house or lodging house near the beach we were staying. My friends and even those who I don't know gave suggestions on the comment section. I was on the last commenter when someone came into my inbox. Wow! That's the same girl on the last comment. Dang! She's a goddess!
I opened the messaged and read what she wrote there. She offered me a place where she was staying. She said her place is so near by the beach where we'll stay. He offered me this:
*Hi! There's a place I know. You can occupy my boyfriends bed since he's not yet around. He'll be back next month. You'll never be bored since you can watch movies on Netflix and I can guarantee you a very low rate.*
So she had a boyfriend but why she's offering me a place where she's staying. And take note, it's the place of her boyfriend too. Because of that, I did not replied immediately. I looked for my friends recommendation but then the pension houses are far and if there's near from the beach, the rate per day is high. I checked again the Pension House Girl's message and realized that her offer is the best. Plus, I also want to watch the Netflix Series most of my friends are addicted with. I am curious what movie is that too and I also don't want to be left behind. I realized I can binge-watch "Sex Education".
So I responded and ask the girl for the rate. Isn't it amazing? Netflix will be free for me and the rate was also cheap. The favor is in me so I agreed with the girl's offer.
So we were at the place, the beach. By the way it was called "corned beach". I don't know why too. 🤣
Look how nice corned beach is. Yeah, a good place to unwind with friends. My friends assembled their tents and unpacked the things we will use. Afterwards, we prepared for something to eat so we grilled some sea foods and meat. Ugh, delicioso!
After the feast was drinking time. Everyone had some shots while having fun. You know how nice is it to be drunk with friends like there's no problem at all. When you all are crazy and laughing all together. And there's one friend who started to throw up like he's calling bird. How I missed those drunk moments.
At exactly 8 PM, we decided to take a rest since most of us are drunk already and we had a plan for tomorrow. So I chatted the girl and luckily she was still online. I asked for the direction which she gave me right away.
I reached the place and found it was nice and clean. The girl let me inside and showed me the room. There were two separate beds so everything was fine. I put my things on the table and the girl went outside the room. I heard some noise coming from spoon and fork so I guess she was eating. My head was a little bit heavy so I decided to lay down. Minutes later, the girl showed up and she was dressed formally. She told me her job was in night shift so she will be out during night time and come home during morning. I felt glad since it would be convenient for me. She also gave me the Netflix account then she left.
I entered the account and found out the password was his boyfriend's fullname. Whatever! So I started watching Sex Education and found it interesting and nice series. As a result, I binge watch it for 5 nights in her room.
The girl was nice too and sometimes, when she's not at work, we would watch the series together.
But our vacation was over since it's been 5 days. I also finished watching the series and I think I should be finished with her too.
We were on our way home when I received a text message from her.
*Hey, John! Why you left without waiting for me. Let's elevate things to the next level. Let's Netflix and Chill.*
That was the girl in the pension house.
I know this has happened long ago but I wanted to know your opinion about this.
What do you think I should do?
Should we elevate things to the next level? Should we have Netflix and Chill or should I move on because I already finished watching the series I want to watch?
Let me hear you.
If anyone here doesn't know what Netflix and Chill is, just click the link below

600 km Endurance Challenge
Today is one of my most awaited days. I guess you can already tell based on the above image. Yes, it's the 600 km endurance challenge for motorbike riders/lovers. I regret it in my entire life why I was not able to join in. Geezz! If I had all my money in tact, I would be able to. I really wanted to part in since this happens once in a while and I don't want to miss a thing.
As we can see from the photo, there are final photo ops and check points for safety purposes. By just looking at the route, we can already tell that the journey is quite long and it's not a joke to take it just in one ride. Well, it's not about who will be first at the finish line but it's all about how you can endure such long ride. Though being first place matters, it's not the main highlight of the event. If I can remember it right, there are about 500 riders who join in. Quite a few numbers.
Isn't it amazing? Please I need an answer pips. Lol.
Again, some of you here can't relate since we have different hobbies and likes. You can skip this again if you'd like but if you really support me, you will read this until the bottom. Lol just kidding!
Going back to the topic, the event grid was held at Tacloban City Astrodome, which is a little bit far from our place. The endurance happened early this morning I think 3 o'clock in the morning. But yesterday, the release of event kits and pre-rider inspection happened. The riders showed their valid identification cards prior to claiming their kits.
And of course, the event happened today, August 1, 2021 which is the jump off day. Below are the categories:
Big bike jump off - 3:45 AM
Backbone jump of f - 3:50 AM
Mid mix jump off - 3:55 AM
Scooter and underbone jump off - 4:00 AM
This big event also needs to follow health protocols.
Wearing face mask all the time
checking of body temperature
bringing QR codes
maintaning 1-2 meter distance
use hand sanitizer before entering the grid
disposing garbage properly
You can also check this link for more info: https://www.facebook.com/101365954697453/posts/359365052230874/?app=fbl
Sorry if I tell you too much though you might not be interested. Lol. Please bear with me as this is one of my likings.
*How about you? Do you also like going on long rides? If not? What's your hobby then?*
Alright. Let me tell you a story about how I asked for permission just to join in. My dad is fine with it all the time. It's just my mom who's making it a problem. I told her if I can take part in the endurance but then after that one sentence, she blabbered with more than 600 words. Too many words than I wrote here per article. Not just words but minding the tone of her voice is just so.... never mind.
She did not even gave me a yes or no. What she said was: *What if you got into an accident? Do you think you can handle it? What if something happened to the motorbike? Who would pay for the damage? Do you know how high is the cost of hospitals bills today? Do you know how much money would be spent for the motorbike repair? etc..*
**And I was like,**
I don't know but why most moms think of negative ones rather than the good ones? Well, I think I should say this again. Mothers are always mothers even if you will turn the world upside down.
Never mind. I would prefer to hear noises from big bikes than my mom's liturgy. Lol. And because of that, I decided to not join and also my money is not enough too.
**Fast forward**
Today
I woke up early just to see the endurance challenge and I succeeded. I saw quite a few number of riders with their cool motorbikes. I envy them big time. The sound as they go was too intense and the way they drive is too amazing. If only you'd see it too then you will be amazed as well.
I took some photos but then it's not that clear since I can't concentrate. So I will just give you clear one which I got on Facebook.
Eyyy look how amazing they are. 😌 If only my mom let me, I will be in here too.
But there's one rider who got the attention of many for he's such an enthusiast despite of his condition.
Look how inspiring this man is. Many would say why he joined in and the likes but people, I'm telling you, you won't understand someone unless you have the same passion. I salute this man!
Of course, there has to be a winner who finishef the route first.
Congratulations to you sir, Raffy Matico! Your journey is so wow! That should be me if I joined. Hahaha! Lol. In your dreams John.
Overall, I did enjoy the challenge. But for me, the true finish line would be their homes where their family is.
After, I went home happy but then mom scold me again because I forgot to the laundry she told me to do yesterday. I guess doing the laundry is my endurance challenge. How long can I endure this?

@gwapojohn
I got mine! But not gold mine!
Hello! How is everyone? Sorry for being not active for a day. I just want to feel someone is missing me. And I think I got the wrong feeling.
It's been a day I guess since I haven't visited read.cash. I was busy yesterday and so as today. Ooops! I have not been to any adventure. I was just spending my time waiting for my order. Last time I said I will not go online shopping again and telling you, it was a mistake. I did I guess last few days I just placed another order. But I do made sure that it will be the accurate order just for me. I can't let it go to my little brother and mom again!
To make sure that I won't order the wrong one again, I read everything from the order details. I even let everyone in the house review the order for me. Believe it or not, I spent one day re-reading the order details before placing the order. I also watched reviews of the product on YouTube to make sure that would fit me.
So what did I ordered? Hmmm, it's something to be worn that can you protect you anytime and anywhere you go. Because of that, you should make sure that it fits you or else your money would go to waste. That is why I was very careful in choosing down to placing the order. It's quite expensive. After all it's all about protection.
Any idea?
See I just ordered a helmet from one of the most popular brands in the country. It's worth it since the quality justifies the price. I don't want to buy one cheaper and compromise the quality. I'm not saying you should not buy cheap ones. There are also affordable products that are of good quality. It's just a matter of your preference.
Since I like drag racing and going on long rides, I think I need to invest in my protective gears. That's why I save up just to buy this dream helmet. I'm not showing this off just for me to be told boastful or something. I am just proud of myself because I am able to buy things my own. I'm not yet independent financially, but at least I can provide myself with the things I want.
I think I need to end this now and just save this as draft. My little brother is now playing the viral TikTok song, "Tutu" again and on repeat. I am just fed up with it. Okay bye!
Hello! I'm back again after sleeping. So let's continue with the order.
That's the order details and it has just arrived today. Oh scratch that, it was not delivered here door-to-door since it's Saturday and the business hours will resume on Monday.
I was just so restless because this is my very first helmet. I can't wait for this to come and it took me 5 days of waiting since it was shipped overseas. And knowing that the delivery man can't deliver it today makes me even more crazy about it. Lol. My mom even bashed me for being so excited about it.
I slept for an hour and I really can't wait longer. Haha! So I called the company and informed them that I will just pick up the parcel there personally. My mom bashed me again and told me why can't I wait for Monday. She even scold me because I used my motorbike again to go there. I drive there as fast as I can.
To make it short, I did not get there as fast as I want. My tire got hole in it making it flat. Pete's sake! Why is it this time?
I don't have a choice but to stop in the nearest vulcanizing shop and got my tire fixed. Just wow! It took me almost 20 minutes there. 🤧
Why is it when we are in a hurry, there will be circumstances that will get us to be delayed. Is it just coincidence or is just bad luck always on my side.
Whatever, cut the drama.
As soon as the tire is fixed, I went to J&T to get my order. What made me so into it is the thought of getting the wrong order or else there's nothing inside my parcel because there are some orders that happen to be like that. Like the one I saw on YouTube, someone ordered a flatscreen TV but then when he opened the box, what's in there is a block of wood. Isn't it amazing? I just prayed mine would be the right one.
I took a video in case I will also get blocks of wood inside. Lol. Just a documentation.
Thank God I got the right one. Yehey! I am just so excited for this. Some of you can't relate since not everyone here is in love with motorbikes and the likes. And I understand if you skip the ads, I mean skip this article.
But for me, this means a lot. It is just so satisfying when you can achieve what you desire by using your own resources.
My happiness was again interrupted when my mom starts to blabber again and complaining about my helmet. She said why the visor is not clear, why the helmet is big, why is it expensive, and why I chose the color end everything until she came with why I did not do the laundry. 🙄 I hate my mom but I can't get rid of her too just like my little brother. Kidding! Hahaha!
Happy Saturday everyone in the house! Let's not go wonder where the chicken cordon is.

@gwapojohn
Maraming salamat, Thank you very much, Merci Beaccoup sponsor, Ma'am @Bloghound! I cannot believe 😍
Seriousness, come live with me.
I woke up early this morning because I also sleep early last night. Isn't it amazing? I should sleep more but then mom is showing her talent in rapping again. Well, what's new? That happens everday. I guess moms or mothers are not getting tired of rapping even what they are talking is just the same everyday. That's one of their talents, I guess. Sometimes, I get annoyed but then I realized that that is nature. They always let us remind of the things that we should do especially if they see we are not moving or doing the proper ways. Mothers are noisy but they are the noise that we would miss if we stop hearing them.
I am also thankful since mom forgive me that day when I intentionally forgot to buy my little brother's toy. But not that thankful since she's been blaming me why my little brother is upset. WHATEVER!
I just rose from bed and went to the kitchen to see what's for breakfast. You know the most beautiful part is that even if our mom is mad or upset in us, they would still prepare food for us. And this is one of the things that I am most thankful. Having something in the table. Why not, right? Many people don't have anything to eat so they end up looking for left-overs which is very sad.
Oh why am I getting serious? This is not my genre. Hahaha! Okay stop talking about moms.
Alright. So after eating breakfast, I immediately check my phone to see someone's name. THAT SOMEONE IS THE ONE WHO CAME THAT I DON'T WANT TO GET LOST. I am not like this to anyone before but with that someone, everything has changed. I opened my phone and there, I saw Rusty's name in my notifications. Hello? It's not always about lovelife. Lol.
Seeing Rusty makes me happy. But I'm not saying that is the only reason why I am happy. There are actually a lot.
Seeing that makes me happy than seeing my little brother crying over spilled milk. I am one week old in the platform. Yay! I am not the one who sticks around but then I stick around. Haha! I also got now 26 subscribers which I don't have idea who are they but regardless, I am still thanfkul to you all. I also have now 12 amazing and kind sponsors who always remind me that I am doing good. Their articles are highly-recommended to be worthy of your time. Check them out! Move! 👌
Sorry but I am just so thankful (cries heavily)
I am also thankful because today, I got to escape my motorbike because mom is sleeping. I know I would be in trouble again but nah I will just face it again when I got home. I just want a breath of fresh air because my breath isn't. Hahaha!
I was also thankful for last night since I got to see fisherman who caught "tugnos". I don't know how do you call it in your dialect but tugnos are small fish. Hahaha! Wait let me search on Google.
**What is Tugnos?**
**Very small fish that have translucent bodies. They always swim in schools allowing the fisherfolk use a net or anything to scoop them from the water.**
Info source https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.aboutfilipinofood.com/tugnos/&ved=2ahUKEwjZ47O6pofyAhXmFqYKHRM6A-0QFjAEegQIGxAF&usg=AOvVaw10C9pJjJv-OqnwAtXUGw_i
This is what they looked like. Tada! There are many ways how to eat or cook this and all are so yummy.
I am also thanful for the gift of life. I know I am naughty and all but I am just so thankful that I am still alive after how many times my mom told me she would kill me because I always let my brother cry. Lol.
Why it's so hard to be serious? Haha! I am just so thankful that I am alive? Are you not?
Lastly, I almost forgot. I have also published 7 articles! Isn't amazing? How did I managed to write stay in one place as I wrote those. Read.cash really brought a lot of changes in me.

Shall I call it another adventure?
Uncaged at last! And when I say uncaged, that means I'm free and mom allowed me to go to wherever I want but not to bring my motorbike for they care about it more than me. They can sleep without me going home but can't if the motorbike was not yet at the garage. I questioned myself again if who their son is. Is it me or the motorbike?
I feel so betrayed! 😭
But yeah, at least mom allowed me to go after that motorbike accident. If you have not read about what happened to that accident, you can read my article if you want. Lol. Click here 👉 John's Adventure Time https://read.cash/@gwapojohn/johns-adventure-time-2313db28
Alright.
Early this morning I received an invitation from a friend. She asked me to attend their 3rd anniversary with his boyfriend. Wow! I hope all. Haha! I was hesitant to go since I don't like seeing couples being so close to each other or being clingy. I prefer couples who are cool with each other. Like just best friends. Call me not romantic but that's me. Whether you like it or you like it.
I just told her that I am not sure jf I can go since my mom won't allow me. But then she's so persistent and said he would let me pay my forgotten debt to her. I forgot that debt since it was long ago when we were in High School. I just borrowed money from her because I lost my allowance playing "online sabong"(sabong - cockfight). Lol. And now I can't refuse since she's blackmailing me. So I replied, "okay".
I was thinking what story to tell to mom so she would let me go out. But then I can't think again since the little brother of mine is crying loudly. He wants to buy a little helicopter 🤦. It was still 5:00 o'clock in the morning so where will we buy one and why he's awake ready? Did he dream about a helicopter?
He won't stop crying so my mom fooled him and told him that we will just order from an online store/app. He then agreed and stopped crying but then. But later on, he constantly asked why the delivery took long time. He wanted to have the little helicopter that quick. Oh man! Now he cried again. Such a mouth!
I had fimed him crying but then I will just you a screenshot of how he looked like that time. Lol.
I took the oppotunity to sneak outside the house. I told mom that I will be the one to buy it for my little brother. HAHAHA!
PROBLEM SOLVED
My mom agreed and gave me money for the toy. I told them that I would buy it before lunch since the invitation was in lunch time.
Lunch time already!
Since mom agreed for me to buy the little helicopter toy, she let me use again my motorbike. Yeah! I hurriedly went to the venue since I was so hungry. When I arrived there, the food was ready and so was I.
Just not too much since it was just 6 of us. Only special friends.
I ate a lot because I know I will drink a lot of shots later. Shot now, drunk later. 😁 Sorry mom, I will not do this again, just once.
After having a battle with the food, we talked and asked how was everyone. Of course the hot seat was on the lovebirds who were celebrating their 3rd anniversary. Their relationship lasts longer than my underwears.
*(I am so sleepy as of this time. I can finish writing this not later than 10 PM but then blackout ruined it. So I endes up waiting for 30 minutes for the electricity to come back. So I will just make this short.)*
Eating session was done and then it was the time for the drinks. How I missed them as much as how they missed me.
The shore was nice and it was high tide too. The waves can even reach our cottage. By the way, we drink some beer and I know Filipinos know this brand. 🤣 Actually this is my favorite now. I don't like to drink not unless it's beer.
We also rented a karaoke tho we know the karaoke doesn't want us. When it was our time, the karaoke had a problem that we can't click the number zero. So we wilk not choose the song that has a song number of zero. And guess what? Most of the songs I liked have the number zero in it. Why o why again, Delilah?
We spent the time drinking and singing. I almost forgot that my mom told me to buy the toy. I looked at my phone and saw that it was still 2 PM so I can spend my time there a little longer. Of course I also sang my favorite songs though the songs do not favor me. I don't care.
Forgive me mom but I really enjoyed having a concert at that beach that I forgot to monitor what time was it. When I glanced at my phone, only then I realized that I was late since it's 6 PM. There were no toy stores that are open at that time.
Now I'm stuck between going home and running away from home.
Going home because I want to tell mom I have not bought my little brother's toy helicopter and running away from home because I am sure my mom would be mad and want me to get lost. Oh no!
Shall I call it another adventure?
Love, John

@gwapojohn
I am a victim
Out of my dismay, I chose to be silent. To be unseen, to be unheard for a day. I was just so young, dumb and broke.
I made a mistake and I think I will do it again.
Yesterday was Sunday if I still can remember it right and today is Monday because it's the day after Sunday. So yeah. I just hope this Monday would turn out well for me.
I was just here, watching Netflix series, again. I am watching Grizzly and the Lemmings which is a very nice movie for KIDS. Yes, for kids because my little brother is here again beside me. I don't want him to open his mouth so I just let him watch what he likes for mom is not around. She's out again for groceries. So I was left with this kid. Though I hate watching and listening to that, "Tabudi Tabudi Tabudi!" from that movie I don't have a choice because I am just a brother and the situation here is so poor and it's very sad. But we owe it to our children, to believe in them. Lol.
Sorry but I think I must share this with you so you can console me for I am a man without love.
I think that was last week when I decided to order something online. Since that motor accident, my mom did not allow me to use the motorbike for one month. Isn't she cruel? Because of that, I can't go out and go to places where I want to go. I have an option to just ride a bus of something but I don't like it. I wanted to buy new shorts and shirt so I ended up ordering online.
I opened an online shopping app and searched for Taslan shorts there. The store has a lot of options so I found it hard to choose. I considered my budget so I chose the cheap ones which I think also have nice quality.
So there! I found the love for meeeee!
I added to cart two taslan shorts, colors were mustard and black. I also ordered a shirt, a stripe one. I checked out and placed the order successfully. Since it needs to be shipped from the seller, I need to wait for 3-6 business days. So okay fine, I am okay with waiting as long as I know something will arrive.
After 5 days, I received a message that the parcel will be delivered today. Yay! So I prepared the exact amount that I need to pay. Plus, I am also excited to see of the shorts fit me well because I am planning to wear one of those in our upcoming batch reunion. After hours of waiting, the rider has arrived.
There are two parcels for me and I was like whattt?? I just ordered one. Man I paid extra for that other parcel. I shall accept it because it has my name on it as well as my address.
No choice.
I received the parcels and the delivery man took a photo of me....
with the parcels as proof of delivery.
I paid everything and hurriedly went inside to open the parcels.
I wore it and geeezzzz! They don't fit. 🤦 Why oh why Delilah? I hurriedly went to see the app and there I found out my nightmare.
I did not notice that those shorts were for kids. For that, I chose my silence. Who's to be blamed? I am the victim.
Glad that the shirt fits.
After that, I opened the second one as I am curious about it and I paid for it. Tsk! I explored and felt the texture of the packaging and I squeezed it to feel it. Those are hard. I opened the parcel and to my surprise......
What? Where did I go wrong?
How will I use this? I don't need any of these. I paid for almost 500 pesos for this (roughly about 10$) I thought deeply who ordered this one and then I remembered that noisy brother played with my phone one of those days. 🤦 I guess he saw me navigating the app and try it for himself. God please give me an extra patience for that kid. I love him, I know but somtimes I just like to put him inside of a sack.
When my mom knew about the parcels, she gave the shorts to my little brother and use the bulb socket and charger for our home.
I cannot complain. I am hurt.
Out of my dismay, I chose to be silent. To be unseen, to be unheard for a day. I was just so young, dumb and broke.
I made a mistake and I think I will do it again.
That's why did I not publish an article yesterday because I was really sad and feel so shy. Lol.
I made a mistake and I think I will do it again because mom is now asking me to order again for my little brother.
I am a victim.

Enjoy if you want to be happy! 😁
Let's do a major flashback
**When I was a kid:**
**I thought I was a kid**
Of course. Since I thought I was a kid, I will not listen to my mom whenever she asked me to buy something from the nearest store. I would rather say "Mom! I was a kid. Why would you let me walk along the street?"
I know mom was pissed but then I am just a kid. Sorry mom! And after that, I will cross the street to buy my favorite ice cream.
**I was once bullied because of my head**
Way back, I am so skinny which I also wondered why. I eat a lot everyday but my body does not cooperate. What's growing is just my head. So I wish I was just a head then so I could grow too.
Yeah, my friends even called me Mr. Bean. They never know I was Megamind.
Of course I did not allowed myself to get bullied with those who deserve a bully too. Whenever they called me, *"John, the great head of heads",* I will also talk back and say, "*At least I have a head unlike you who looks like my foot".*
**I used to eat my nails my fingernails**
Yes, because I was too bored in class. I don't want to be rude and just sleep in front of my teacher so I would bite and eat my fingernails to escape sleeping. I wonder how my stomach digested all those. Lol.
**I used to believe that the moon is following me**
I know you also believe this one too when you were just a kid. Haha! I used to asked my mom why the moon is always there wherever I go. Then my mom would say, *"The moon just wants an adventure because he's too bored above".*
That's why I believe maybe the moon has a crush on me or something. She liked to follow me every night.
**I believe I can be a famous actor**
I honestly like to be celebrity not for the popularity but because of their earnings. I grow up not so poor but very poor so I dream of become a famous actor so I can earn huge amount of money by acting or just by having a lip sync in a stage.
But then I realized I don't want to cry because I just don't like crying. I don't want to look like my little brother. Not ever.
**I used to scare scare crows**
Believe it or not, I did this when I was a kid. I was just so curious of everything and I thought scare crows are humans. So I thought that, if scare crows scare crows, who would scare the scare crows?
Because of that, I went near the scare scrows. As I am near to them, the farmer noticed me and called me in an angry voice. So instead of scaring the scare crows, I was the one who got scared.
**I tried to cut my hair**
As I said, I was so curious back then that it came to a point that I can't sleep not until I can cut my hair. When mom was not around, I guess she was out for groceries. I looked for the scissors and and tried cutting my hair from back to front. After that, I realized that it was the biggest mistake of my life.
I looked like I got an irrigation canal in my head. 🤦
There are a lot going on my mind but I don't want you to lose yours just because of this article.

Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?
Today, I decided to not write about my adventure. I don't want to expose how unfortunate John's life is. Everything seems a joke and my little brother is here again talking like Peppa Pig.
I came across different articles during my days of stay here. Some wrote about Bitcoin and Cryptos. Some also wrote about their travels and I highly recommend @FarmGirl @Bloghound and @ARTicLEE if you want to read such amazing travel blogs. Apart from that, the article of @emily2u got my attention because of her would you rather questions which I wanted to try.
Since I am naughty, lol I want to try answering those naughty questions too.
I chose 10 questions from the random question generator. If you want, you can join in the challenge too. Link is in my bio. Char! You can find the link below.
https://www.collegetimes.com/entertainment/71-ridiculous-rather-questions-115652
**WOULD YOU RATHER QUESTIONS**
**Would you rather shit on someone or have someone shit on you?**
First of all, I don't want some shit but if that shit is coming from me, I cannot complain anymore. Clearly, I would rather shit on someone. And I know you would choose this too.
**Would you rather fart every time you laugh or burp every time you cry?**
Basic. I always fart everyday. Between fart and burp, I would rather fart every time I laugh so the laughter goes on continuously as they hear and smell my fart. I don't want to cry so burping every time I cry is a big NO. Or else I would be like my little brother crying because his shadow is following him. 🙄
**Would you rather eat your family pet or kill your parents?**
I haven't tried killing my parents so I would rather eat our family pets since we don't have any of them. Hahaha!
**Would you rather not have sex for a year or have it every day of your life but not orgasm ever?**
Why make yourself tired if someone can do it for you everyday? Lol.
**Would you rather have a bell go off every time you're horny or never get horny?**
Of course I would rather have a bell go off every time I am horny so people around me will be aware. Let us spread awareness!
**Would you rather paint a wall with your face or your knees?**
Without a doubt, I would rather paint a wall with my face so my face would mark the wall. People would get the chance to see me everywhere. Haha! Isn't that amazing?
**Would you rather meet the love of your life knowing that they'll die in a year or never meet them?**
Why must I make my heart hurt when I can just be happy? Let me be serious here since I seldom do it. I don't want to meet the love of my life knowing that they'll die after a year. What's the purpose of having one when you can't be together for long? So I would rather not meet them. After all, love is easy to give. We have many chances of meeting new people and love them. Let us not be choosy. Some were in a failure relationship because they keep on choosing perfect ones who never exist.
**Would rather be able to speak to animals or every language in the world?**
I would rather speak to animals than being able to speak every language in the world. Let me real. I am dumb. I can't even memorize our graduation speech how much more the languages in the world? Whereas in animals, I can just use sign language and hum. That would be easier.
**Would you rather see the texts your ex wrote about you or have them see the texts you sent about them?**
If it's already an ex don't text them and wait for them to reply. You are giving yourself the situation of useless waiting. So for me, I would rather, see the texts of my ex wrote about me because I never sent messages to my ex anymore.
**Would you rather have the best house in a bad neighbourhood or the worst house in a fancy neighbourhood?**
I would rather have the best house in a bad neighborhood. Who cares about the neighborhood? I don't want to get involve in their business and I don't want them to see what's mine too. If I choose, the worst house in fancy neighborhood, my little brother would be worse since he will be crying even more. I don't want that. I am so fed up. Lol.
So done. I tried my best to answer those and I do hope you tried your best to understand my reasons. 😥🤣
Anyway, I am so happy yesterday since the generous Rusty showered something. I did not expect it will be that early.
In just 4 days, I had 8 generous sponsors. Though my content is not that satisfying, still they believed in me. **But why my parents don't when I told them I did not stole the cookie from the cookie jar?**

The Legend of the Gossiper (Ang Alamat ng Chismosa)
***This is a true story***
Once there was a family who lived in very far away land of Mount Camagong. They are situated at the topmost part of the mountain which can be also called top of the world where you can look down on creations and the only explanation I can find is 🎶🎶 ...
"Stop singing, John. We need to finish the story first."
"Okay po nayyyy."
Going back to the family, yes they lived in the topmost part of the mountain. In that mountain of Camagong, their family was well-known to be famous and rich. Their house is made of diamonds and luxury glasses. You can just see the inside of the mansion for the walls are so clear, so transparent. The roof was also made of glass with bits of gold. Can you imagine that? If you can't then don't imagine.
They also have fountain of dollars. Yes, you heard it right. Dollars man! I can't imagine how rich they are for having that. But why the money doesn't get soaked? I still don't know now. Maybe later.
The chandelier is also wow! I want to swing on the chandelieeerrr, on the chandelieeeeerrrrr. Unfortunately, I can't go in since the guards are guarding the dogs and the dogs are guarding the mansion. So who are really the guards? The dogs or the guards?
Their backyard also has different luxury cars and motorbikes. You know I am addicted to bikes and I was thinking to go in. Hmmm! What if I dressed up like the guards? No way the guards are guarding the dogs and not the mansion. Ahah! I should dress like a dog?
Because of my curiosity to get in touch with the family and to ride one of their motorbikes, that night I practiced how to bark and extend my tongue outside my mouth. It took me 5 hours to look like a dog. I was about to sleep when my little brother came in. He told me to turn on the TV so he can watch cocomelon again. Since I can't get rid of him, I just turned on the TV. But then I noticed he was wearing a dog head wear.
*Voila!*
I took the dog head wear from my little brother's head and exchange it with a plastic bag.
*Tadaaa! My disguise is complete!*
It was raining then. Oh man! How can I go up so high that mountain? It will be a hard climb since it's muddy and slippery. Regardless, I still wanted to go to that mansion so I waited until 1 AM. It's still raining hard but my will to go is much stronger than the rain. It took me 2 hours to reach the top of Mount Camagong where the mansion is located. And take note, I was also soaking wet.
I was there already near the guards ready to act like a dog but then I got tripped by a bar of gold just a meter away from the guards.
**Splasssssh**!
I just landed at the muddy portion of the place making me covered with mud all over. As a result, I looked like brown bulldog.
The guards heard the noise and saw me so I wore the dog head wear fast and started barking.
*"Wooofff wooof woooffff" - I barked*
*"What are you doing there ugly dog! Come here get inside!" - the guard*
**MISSION ACCOMPLISHED**
I was inside already. I can't see anything since it's still dark and they are sleeping. So I rest a bit as I got tired too.
Morning came and someone might see me. I just moved slowly but surely. At last! I was able to see the whole family. Just wow! They look like royals. Their skin is as white as ivory. They dressed like they're walking money. So expensive. They were just having breakfast. They had a whole roast suckling pig for breakfast.
Good luck high blood pressure!
After they eat breakfast, they went out and headed to the pool of milk. That was my first time seeing a pool of milk. So memsmerizing.
While they are busy there, I slowly crawled towards their backyard and saw the luxury cars and expensive motorbikes! Holy cow! This is heaven. I was about to go near the motorbikes when I saw something. My eyes got big and almost went out. I could not speak as well. This is too good to be true. I can't believe what I saw. Now I know why they are rich. Now I know why they are so famous and rich that they have their own airport just beside the yellow lemon tree.
I wonder how.
I wonder why.
I wonder where they are.
DO YOU ALSO WANT TO KNOW WHY THE FAMILY IS SO RICH? ARE YOU SURE? IF YES, THEN CONTINUE READING.
**AND THAT'S WHERE THE LEGEND OF THE GOSSIPER BEGAN!**

This is a true story....I'm just kidding. It's not. 🤣

***(Adventure Time Opening Song)***
It's my brother watching his favorite cartoon, Adventure Time. Everyday is Adventure Time Day for him that's why I even memorized the opening song. That cartoon has been my alarm clock as well. I don't want to wake up so early but then I have no choice. Little brother will cry if the volume is too low. I can't get rid of that cartoon since it's my brother's favorite. So I'm thinking that what if I get rid of my brother? I'm sure there will be no crying mouth and loud adventure time song in the house for I will not be living in the house anymore because my mom would kick me from the house before I could get rid of my brother. Lol.
If that happens, I don't want that to happen. 😅
I got up, took a bath, dressed up and eat breakfast. Since I stopped schooling temporarily, I got no other things to do rather than cleaning the house (yes I do the cleaning), cook food (yes, I do the cooking) and washing clothes (yes, I do the washing). After those, I am free, born free. I got bored so I texted my friends if we can go somewhere down the road where our roads are gonna cross again. Lol. Fortunately, they replied in an instant. Thank goodness! I am so bored in the house, bored in the house, bored.
I told them if we can have a ride to the mountains since it was long time ago when I had my last ride. I just miss having a bond with my baby, baby motorbike. And today, I will enjoy my time with nature.
My friends told me that they can come in the afternoon because they are not available this morning. They are still pursuing the online class that is why they can't make it so the only time they got would be afternoon. I don't have the right to complain nor to ask them to skip classes but I was planning to tell them that. Haha! Poor John! I was so bored so I decided to go the shore to see something beautiful for I am tired looking at my face 😅.
It was still early so the sun shines so bright. Imagine how calming it is to the soul. I can feel the sun that lights up my whole world. I feel the warmth inside. (You can continue singing lol) I was enjoying the view when suddenly, I saw a kid sitting somewhere in the shore. And my heart goes shalala in the morning. He's letting some bomb out. Oh my I don't want to see the bomb explode! So I run as fast as I could.
It was afternoon at last! I prepared everything. Since we won't be getting out of the town, and our route is not that far too so I did not dressed with proper attire and safety gears but of course I had my helmet. Minutes later, my friends arrived so we went to our first destination.
This is at the peak of Hinagtican mountain. See that? The overlooking view is so satisfying. I felt the fresh air as the trees are swaying with the wind. We stayed there until evening. We just talked and catched up with each other. We waited for the sunset as well. Meanwhile, I remember it is read.cash time. I should go home and make an article. But then again, I remember my username which I cannot change. Can I change it? Please help me people.
To forget it, I told my friends to go "burp". It's a restobar here near our place. They also want to chill so they agreed. We eat dinner and after we had some drinks. I only drank 2 bottles since I will be driving home. We enjoyed there, spending the afternoon with drinks.
It's 7 PM when we decided to head home. We part ways since we have different destinations. I was a bit tipsy but I need to go home or else dad would kill me for not bringing the motorcycle at home. It is fine with them if I go out and not go home as long as I will not bring the motorbike with me. Now I am doubting if who their son is. Is it me or the motorcycle?
So I drove home. But then again I remember my brother. He must be watching cocomelon since he always watch it during night time. Well it's fine with me but then he will play the song "Johnny, Johnny? Yes papa. Eating sugar? No papa" on repeat. RIP replay button.
I forgot I was driving that time since I was tipsy. I thought I am at home. So I acted like I get the remote and turn off the smart T.V. As a result, I loose my grip from the motorbike. And booooogshhhhh!
Wow! This is really an adventure.
*"John! John! Wake up!" someone called me.*
*I opened my eyes and saw a familiar face. I gazed around and found out that I was not at home. I was at the hospital.*
STILL I SMILE BECAUSE THIS IS MY ADVENTURE lol. ADVENTURE GONE WRONG
Lesson learned: Don't try to get rid of your little brother. 🤣
Drive safely
Don't drink alcohol when driving

Hello, read.cash!
"What is read.cash?"
"What is BCH and how does that work?"
"How do I write my articles?"
"Am I really welcome?"
"Will someone read my work or appreciate it perhaps?"
I asked my friend who introduce me to read.cash. She was not finish answering my first question but then I keep on hitting her more questions. I just don't know what would I do and I really want to learn about the platform. She explained everything to me and I can say she's a little bit pissed since I am always asking, one after the other. So she taught me the first step which is to register. I did it and it took me more than a minute to think of a nickname.
I typed, "**gwapojohn**" so I can move into the next step. I never thought that I will not be able to change the nickname after I enter it. Lol. Can I? Please help me out.
Some of you might think that I am just thinking myself so highly but nah, my nickname was just a product of my dumbness.
**So there I created my account!**
I started to explore the site and read various genre of articles. I mean the types. It is so nice because you can write under the sun as long as it conforms to the rules and regulations. So yeah, I was thinking that I can write articles with varied topics. This is going to be so exciting. I also read some articles about Cryptos which I am not yet familiar with but I do hope to learn more and perhaps write something about it. Honestly reading articles before publishing really helped me a lot. First, I saw the form on how their articles are organized, how they start it and how they end it. Second, I saw how they developed their paragraphs to get connected in one thought. Third, I learned how to interact with the rest of the bloggers and made friends with them. I even had my subscribers! Just wow!
A short self-introduction
Hello beautiful writers! I am just new here but I can feel I am welcome. I actually get to know few in here and they are all amazing.
Shall I introduce myself? Of course I should. I'm John, 21 years old and an aspiring writer who also likes to read anything comes from the heart. I like reading articles or any work because that is where I can read their souls too. I will get the chance to know more about the person and at the same time, I will know his/her upbringings. Moreover, I also like drag racing for I love motorcycles.
I have one actually and I have been to a lot of rides and races. But now that it is pandemic, I seldom go for it. I chose to stay home bruh! Health is wealth.
I also love cooking. I like experimenting on food. Haha! Most of my dish comes with chili for I am a fan of Spicy food. I cooked adobo with chili, fried egg with chili, fried fish with chili and many more.
How about you? What are your hobbies?
Oh I almost forgot. I am also the eldest in the family. I have 2 brothers. One is 19 years old and the other is still 3 years old. Huge gap right between me and our youngest. It seems like I can consider him as my son. Haha! My mom and dad are here as well. Since we are all boys including dad, of course, my mom would always look for a daughter. I can feel that she longs to have one so she can experience having a daughter and how to take care of a baby girl. So I think it is time for me to have a family and give her a grand daughter. 😅
I am also a college student, a BSMT (Bachelor of Science in Marine Transportation) student. Most people call it seaman. Well, it is up to them. I am an incoming 2nd year college student but then I stopped for now. It is not about financial or any family problems but I just want to stop for now. I can't keep up with online learning because I cannot learn from it. We all have different learning styles and online learning or distant learning is not for me. Especially that my course needs hands-on. We will not learn by just watching videos and answering modules. We need to develop the skills and not just learn theories. So because of that, I stopped my schooling. I am jusy hoping this pandemic will be over soon.
Why read.cash?
I choose read.cash aside from earning which is at the bottom of list, because this can help mo hone my skill in writing. I will be able to speak without judgment. I will learn from others of different races. Lastly, I will not waste my time waiting for the pandemic to be over because I have read.cash where I can make my every day productive.
Hello read.cash!
Hello read.cash! I may not know all about you now but I am eager to know you deeper. I will work hard so I can be like the amazing writers here. I also believe that this platform will help me build camaraderie even if it is virtual.
