$102 For Mama's Washing Machine
`Disclaimer: This article didn't intend to beg some thing, also don't be confused with the title. It was just inspired by the title of bb` @Sydney2`'s recent article. :D`
Can you still remember my first investment (*pundar*) for this year 2022? I unlocked this one on the second day of this month. For me, I considered it as an investment and not just a mere need or want. Why? Because I and my younger siblings won't just only use it for our studies, but also for those hustling moments of mine.
What is it? A **study table**. Wieee~ I shared this accomplishment in my recent article, **Cheers to a More Comfortable Studying and Hustling!**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/cheers-to-a-more-comfortable-studying-and-hustling-c01d9dd0
In the attached article above, I also mentioned this two certain things that I am aiming next to the study table. What are they? These are the **dining table** and a **washing machine**. This two are our needs due to their use. As you all know, we often eat while sitting on the floor like how a Asians (like Chinese and Koreans) do. Our previous table was left at our previous house coz it is kind of old already. As I did some canvassing, I found a dining table (rattan style and is made of plastic) that fit in into my budget.
Also, the washing machine is really in need. Have I mentioned before that my Mom works as a laundry washer or *labandera* in Filipino term? Yes, she is. Mama started that kind of occupation since I was around Grade 8 or 9 when her deceased grandmother asked her if she also wants to try washing other people's clothes. That time, she was working as a housekeeper within our vicinity. That one-time trying continues for days and years and up until now. In this, she makes a living and was then used for our essential needs in the family.
**Who are her, our clients?**
Most of her clients are working in an Agriculture-based institution here in our place and are residing at the Staffs Ville. By which most of them are researchers and even what other employees called as their "bosses." She started by having only one client until it grows into numbers. Actually, the security guards had already known as. In short, *'di na kami hinaharang sa gate.* Hihi! There was even a time that we accommodated almost 12-13 persons and coz some of them are re-assigned to other institutions, it was lessened. Now, she have 5 active clients. 3 are into the institution and the other 2 are from our barangay.
**Is being a laundry washer an easy work to do?**
Nope. Remember that there's no work (occupation) that is easy, all of them are difficult. And, the same as being a laundry washer. When we are still residing at Mama's family house, we are using Tita's washing machine. But since that we already moved out, we need to do the laundries manually. It's okay *naman* but it hurts our hands so much. Especially, Mama's hands. As a laundry washer who is accepting numerous clients, access to a washing machine is a must. Coz it is not just a need for washing our own clothes, but as an investment for this kind of occupation and can be a business, as well.
During the times that we have to face so many laundries, we are opting to borrow Tita's washing machine. But because it belongs to other people, it is also *nakakahiya* (embarrasing) to do this often. In addition is my worries that once it suddenly broke while we are using it (*napang-abutan sa amin*), we will shoulder all the expenses for the repairing. And, it'll surely be heavy.
So, we really need to do the best thing. What is it? **To buy own own washing machine**.
Since it is kinda pricey to buy on-cash, my parents are considering the option to have one through installment (*hulugan*). Last January 13, they go to KServico and City Trust for inquiries. Mama wants a micromatic one (with dryer) and it costs about PHP 11-12,000.00 ($214-$234) with a down payment of PHP 2300.00 ($44.90) and a monthly payment of PHP 1200.00 ($23.43).
But, I said no to that option. Why? Simply because I don't want to have a debt nor even an installment to think of this year, as my goal. Also, it's really pricey that we can't afford to pay it on cash and Mama said that she only wants to have a washing machine good quality and that she can have it even its not original. *Magaling naman s'yang mamili eh.*
And yesterday, when I bought our school supplies, I did some canvassing in to the two known establishment in our city. This is what I found:
**In Super99 ..**
The first one is this machine with Eureka as a brand and can accommodate 6.5kg per cycle. This type is what Mama wants and it wasn't that expensive as it is only for around PHP 4500.00.
The next one is this blue-colored micromatic washing machine. Unlike the first one, it can hold more clothes per cycle for 7.5kg but there's no indicated price ey.
This two are good for me but I just don't know for Mama. So, I just had some shots and a video while demonstrating the outside and inside features. Apparently, they look like they are stocked for too long so I said to Mama that I prefer those that I saw in the other establishment.
**In ALLWAYS ..**
In this shop, they have a numerous machines to offer compared to Super99. And, most of them looks like a new stocks. Sadly, I don't have so many photos coz it is prohibited.
This washing machine is just the same with the first one that is available in the Super99 but was just for 5.5kg having the price of almost PHP 4000.00 ($78.05).
So glad that I saw a micromatic one that can possibly be liked by Mama. It is more bigger than those ones that I saw first and can wash about 8kg of clothes and was also in sale for just less than PHP 5200.00 or about $102. I just don't have a photo of it but I described it to Mama properly.
And, she said that we should check it immediately and buy if we can *na.* But apparently, they don't have that money by now. So, I just said that I will shoulder the expenses first but not now coz BCH was still in a low price. I am allotting my January earnings in read.cash for it as I aimed to have 0.2 BCH. Good news, I am near to it as I already have about 0.18 BCH, as of now. So blessed ey! ❤
If BCH starts to pump and get more increase this month, then we'll have it before February comes in. Well, hopefully. So, that Mama won't need to borrow other's washing machine and for her work to be more lighter.
We'll have it soonest, Mama. For now, let's just wait. Your lovely daughter got your back. 🧡

AB's Situation Is Getting Real Bad
Being a pet lover, or specifically a fur parent, is not an easy-peasy task to do like how we did a 1, 2, 3 at the jeepney. It requires not just upon giving their them our time, care, and love. But, also to fill in into the additional responsibility to carry on our shoulders.
Aside from aiding to their needs for foods and shelter, we must also protect them. From their fellow-cats, other people, and even from ourselves. Protect from what? From experiencing any act of violence or most known as **animal cruelty**. This kind of cruelty can be possibly committed by anyone of us (either be a pet lover or not) but can be prevented as we feed our minds with lots of reminders and through restraining ourselves from doing such a bad thing to animals. In short, it will start from ourselves.
In the Philippines, there is a law for this unlawful act against any animals. This is the **Republic Act No. 8485** or the **Animal Welfare Act of 1998** and amended by RA 10631 which aims:
to both protect and promote welfare for all the animals in the country.
Animal cruelty (specifically the maltreating and torturing of animals) and negligence, especially to their needs, will all fall in this law. If caught on act, there is a punishment to be give and it can be either paying such an amount of fine or worst, **imprisonment**. So, let's all be aware of our actions and all be animal-friendly.
Okay, enough with this. Now, let's go on to this part.
Can you still remember AB? She is one of my cat-babies, the other one is Medy which is a he. The two of them are just a half-sibling coz they have the same mother but different fathers. Their mom is our first cat but sadly, she already passed years ago. Their mom was hit by a vehicle and their father had suddenly gone, as per to Papa's story. They are with us for over more than 6 years ago, since I was in Grade 9 and up to this date.
When we moved out on the 21st day of December 2021, they was left there but we don't plan to abandon them. On the next day, we came back for them but it took us days to get AB. Yes, AB coz until now, we can't get Medy coz he don't even want to go near us. And, that's a heartbreak for me.
After days of trying to get them, we finally got and brought AB by December 27 along with her litters but she came back in our previous house *pa din*. Hayst, how stubborn she is. Then, an unexpected and ranging discovery happened last January 06 wherein I share in this article: **Someone Had Hurt My Baby AB!**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/someone-had-hurt-my-baby-ab-d7313b26
To sum that article, I shared that AB got some injury. A serious one that really broke my heart and woken up the sleeping and unwanted feeling within my system. Her left hindleg was broken, it seems like she was hit by a hard thing with such as strong force that resulted for her bone to separate from the joint (*hugpungan*).
We aren't sure when does that happened, if its just within the day that we saw her or right after she came back in there. Also, the one who did that is still unknown. All we have are just suspicions.
On her first days here, we focused on how to gain back her old self coz when we saw her that day, she became thin. We did our best to bring back the hubby, healthy, and bubbly AB. And, the cuddly version of her. We fed her with so much foods everyday and took care of her, more than how we did before.
I, we are aware that it'll take long for her injury to be replenished coz it's really broken. Every time that her skin will touch ours'? We will feel her bone piercing at our skin, *tumutusok na*. In there, we can really say that her injury is really bad. I can't afford to bring her to a veterinary clinic those days because I have so many things to allot with money such as our needs and other bills.
On the days after we got her back, I am just praying for one simple thing for her. For her to recover. But sadly, it didn't go that way. Instead, her situation got even worst.
As you can see on the photo above, the part of her skin where her bone is piercing out had formed a wound *na*. Also, a part of her bone was now visible. And, I, we just discovered it last night.
*I shared this in noise.cash post:*
https://noise.cash/post/lrg05k53
Upon seeing her skin that I took care of for so many years? I cried in silence, again. It really broke me whenever I saw the way she walks, what more on this one? </3
That time, I know and I admitted to myself that it is really bad. That even her life is at risk for possible infection and such and I can't help but to imagine that that might be the reason why I will loss her. It will really break me, so bad. That's for sure.
So before it happen, I will make a move *na*. I should take the right remedy for her situation, which is to get her properly treated by a veterinary doctor.
Right after I posted an update in noise.cash last night, I then immediately compose and sent a private message to one of the vet clinic in our vicinity.
I told them the case of AB and asked what should I do, along with the possible procedure to be given for her. Also, the expenses that I am possibly have on the process.
Gladly, they responded to my message this morning. I was then told that I should better bring AB to their clinic to properly assess her through undergoing an X-ray and come up with a procedure to do.
They also told me bring my cat today because if it will take another days, it will cause more damage to the surrounding tissues.
And, upon seeing the appearance of her bone today? Damaged tissues are starting to show cause the visible bone changed its color already. Perks of studying microorganisms, so I can easily get along with her situation.
I already made up my mind that I'll bring her to a vet clinic, also had consulted it to my parents and they supported my decision *naman*. They even talked to AB and said, "*ipapa-opera ka na ni Bes.*" And, she answered back with a meow and purred to Mama. My mother also teasingly and jokingly said that maybe I have so many money now, *baka daw may milyon na din ako*. HAHAHA!
Yes, I am decided about this action. But, I can't stop myself from thinking about the expenses. For sure, it'll cost an arm and leg as I am also thinking that her leg might be cut permanently if its really serious *na.* If it happens, AB will be amputated *na* which I hope not to happen and that there's another way to treat her leg.
Praying and hoping that the expenses is not that huge and that it will fit in to my budget. But, self? Let's do this, for AB. Okay? (●'◡'●)
Baby? Momma is now making an action for your situation. So, I'll ask you to wait for some days *pa*. Your Momma will just hustle to earn and save some money to be use for you, but we'll get you treated this week. So, bear with the pain *muna*. Your Mom got this. 😘

My Thursday: A Day For My Monthly Goal
**Ohayo, read.casherssss!** 🤗
It's been two consecutive days of having no articles to publish and I even goes a bit inactive and less interactive here. Got so busy this past two days (Wednesday and Thursday) in the outside world. Doing so many things such as the chores in the house and revising my thesis outline.
My last article was by last Tuesday *pa* and it is the **Certified Noise.casher For A Year**, wherein I shared my first year with noise.cash. But, tadaaaa! My tasks for today isn't that much, so I will grab the opportunity to write an article. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/certified-noisecasher-for-a-year-1de78ad3
For this article, I will just share how did my Thursday goes and what I had accomplished that that.
**So, let's start? In 3, 2, 1 .... welcome to my blogggg! 💓**
Since the day that I can make a living (way back 2019), I set a certain goal that I really want to achieve every month. That's why I am allotting some budget for it coz I need to do it after 2-3 weeks or so. What is it? **Buy some groceries.**
The last time that I did this task, it was by December 22, 2021 which I shared in this article, **My Biggest BCH Conversion In 2021**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-biggest-bch-conversion-in-2021-7c3fd801
And, last Monday (morning), our stocks had run out. Well, not totally because we still have around 4-5 in-canned goods. But, we don't have some rice stocks *kasi* and that's the signal for me to buy some stocks and I planned it by Tuesday *sana*. Good news, Papa initiated to buy rice and so I just said to myself that I'll do it after our rice run out again. Maybe about 10 days after. Also because according to Mama, it's not my responsibility to do that coz she can *naman*. So, okay. Hehe~
But, a bad news was then announced by the night of Wednesday (January 12). It says that our province will be in **Alert Level 3** (starting today, January 14 to January 31) due to the sudden rise up of COVID-19 cases, this past few days. Sad to know but we can't do anything but to accept it.
Also, there are always a cases reported in our community (barangay) in each passing days. The highest is five, last Monday or Tuesday *yata*. And, that pushed me to buy our groceries *na* and just forget my plans.
So, yesterday morning when I am washing the dishes, I told Papa that we'll go to the city proper around 9:30AM. So, I prepared my list and myself. Since that I don't have any cash in my wallet, I dropped by at the nearest LandBank ATM machine to withdraw some cash. But, all their machines has a notice saying, "No Cash" and the same with in PNB so I only have two options. Either to withdraw in other banks' machine or use my card for transactions. And, I prefer to try the first one *muna*.
And, good news, Producers' Bank's ATM machine is available.
But, arghhh! I'm not used to their machine coz all my life, I've been withdrawing in LandBank. In short, *nakaka-tanga* and there's a long line too. So, I feel ashamed. Haha! Good thing that there's an old man who kindly assisted me. Promise, *nakaka-hiya talaga.* HAHAHA!
So, okay. Let's forget that happening, haha. Next stop? To the Friendship Supermarket to buy our goods.
Wondering what I usually buy in there? Okay, lemme share it. Joke, there's so much and it'll too much of our time. Hihi but since that our 1-year old cutie lil cousin often stays at our house, I added some of her foods in the cart. Like wafers, drinks, and candies. *Para may* stocks *din s'ya sa bahay*. I'm so thoughtful, right? Char~
Next? To the City Food Park to buy some snacks (coz my tummy is growling already, haha!) and our meal for lunch. As it's already quarter to 11:30AM that time.
After that, I proceeded to the public market for the vegetables and some meats.
Perks of studying Agriculture, I know what to pick-up and vendors won't be able to gully me. :D But I don't asked for discounts ah, they give it to me without further asking and they even add some to what I buy ah. *Suki* eh, hahaha.
*Tip:*
In buying some veggies, choose those fruits that still have *tangkay* (attached stems), they help in prolonging the freshness and shelf life of our stocks.
And, tadaaa! Presenting what I had bought last day.
I also dropped at the pharmacy to buy medicines and vitamins coz our medicine box needs some refilling *na.* I can't find some Biogesic or Bioflu, so I just go with Paracetamol and Neozep. But, I forgotten the Ascof Lagundi, hehe.
Coz we still have rice, I just passed by on the Rice Buying Station. And, this is one of my views while on the way home. 😍✨
As we go home, I just rest and relax for 10 minutes and started to organize the stocks in the racks and drawers. They need some refilling *na* ey. XD
When I'm doing this task, no one should help me coz I have my own way to organize them. In short, *bawal mangialam* or else, I'll spit some fire to you like a dragon. Hahaha~
And, charaaaan! They're now full, again.
Wieee~ so satisfying to see them like this. As in! Especially the first layer? That's meant for the snacks like pancakes, drinks, and some junk foods. Ahhhh! My eyes was starting to form hearts. <3
It's so good to the feeling *kaya* that we'll just grab what we need and want, anytime. And, no need to go out to buy such thing. Considering that it's more thrifty, too.
So, are you also included to those people who are so fond of going to the supermarket or grocery store while pushing a cart and grabbing what we want and need to buy? Coz me? Of course, I ammmm. 💕
Like what this post had said, **"You know you're an adult when a trip to a grocery store makes you happy..."**
© to: Aesthetic Finds Facebook Page
*Exclude the expenses, but the feeling? It's so surreal. Not just the fact that I, we can now shop like this, but the thought that I can now provide for our needs? That's indescribable.*
So, cheers to more grocery timeeee! 🥂
That's all for this article. Hope you like it! :)

Certified Noise.casher For A Year
Noise.cash ...
A blogging and a "free-BCH earning platform" wherein ...
**N**ever did I expect that I'll be joining at. As in! All that I can think of that I can express my thoughts is through writing piece for our college publishing team. Until, a friend of mine, @carisdaneym2, sent a message to our group chat. Inviting us to join her in this site (including read.cash). Apparently, I was so busy with my priorities in life such as in my studies and with my tutorial sessions at that time so I hadn't joined immediately.
**O**n the 11th day of January, year 2021, I finally created an account here with the username of "**imanagrcltrst**" which is pronounced as "*I'm an Agriculturist*." Why chose that said username? Simply because I am an Agriculture student and is dreaming to be one of the country's Licensed Agriculturist. So, I decided to why not just use that one.
**I** was so inspired with my friend's achievements here in the platform. That it made me pushed my luck in blogging, even though I don't know how it runs at first. But then she guided me until I finally learned few things that made me able to do my thing here on the next days and months. Aside from her, I was also encouraged of how other content creators like my big sisters (Ate) here like Ate Jane, Ate @bmjc98, Ate @Ruffa, and more had established their names in this world of blogging. Making them able to do unexpected things just with their overflowing efforts in writing a piece of works. An example is the ongoing BCH House of Ate MJ.
Of course, like all of us here, I also ...
**S**tarted with **0 (zero) subscribers, hearts, tips, and all**. That time, we only have the *subscription* and *explore tabs* until the site starts to improved into a more greater one. Here comes the *search tab*, also the numerous channels had emerged, and many more updates was then introduced to us little by little. It was during the first implementation of **FreeTips** era when I started my journey here. Like what we have known, it's not easy to earn this way. And, look! There was so many updated on the earning system but I am still here. Even though I struggled and felt down for having **zero tips** for many times? I am still here, doing wonders. I exerted so much efforts and time just to gain other users' attention, until that **zero everything** begun to move to one to two and more.
**E**verything started with **zero**. I spent days turned to weeks to months and tadaaa! From zero subscribers? Now, I have thousands of users who supports me here and was even rooting on me. The earnings? Oh, it goes beyond my expectations. And, those users that eventually became my friends and even family that grows virtually? I didn't even see that coming, as well.
**.**
**C**an you also imagine that a wannabe noiser like me will have the opportunity to be one of the content creators here? Also, that I will be able to accumulate and hodl **1 BCH** with just noise.cash alone? (Shared in this article: **Finally, I Successfully Unlocked My First 1BCH!**) Exclude those BCH that I had converted for so many times. Yes, it was just with noise.cash and read.cash has nothing to do with it. Aside from that, I also successfully given some simple Christmas gifts to our family and to my cousins of of my everyday noise.cash earnings? Oh, that feels so wonderful. ❣ https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/finally-i-successfully-unlocked-my-first-1bch-7a8576fa
**A**side from this accomplishments? I even supported Mama's needs when she got sick for weeks. Also, when we moved out and in need for such a big amount of money. Guess what? I didn't pinch even a little to what I am saving in the bank coz that's meant for other things like our daily needs and savings. But then, here's my hodlings that I accumulated from noise.cash alone, backing me up and even said, **"Don't yah worry and instead, let me do the thing and ease your worries."**
**S**o thankful and grateful to those persons behind this platform who are so willing to help us, users to gain something and making a living out of content creating. They were wholeheartedly donating huge amount of cryptos, without asking us for any monetary returns. Instead, to do our very best to grow and nurture the skills that we have. With a bonus of earning, yeah.
**H**adn't imagine that I'll go this far with noise.cash. Coz I am really a busy person outside this virtual world. I have so many priorities and responsibilities that can stop me from digging up here. But, look! I still managed to be flexible enough to do them at the very same time. And, from a **newbie noiser** way back last January 11, 2021? Tadaaa!
**I am now finally celebrating my first year with Noise.cash! 🥰🌼**
I shared this milestone as my first post in noise.cash today. Here it is:
*You can check the actual post using this link:* https://noise.cash/post/l76qg272
Actually, I'm planning to have a Noise.cash Anniversary Cake but I can't have it now. Coz I'm not yet ready to reveal to my parents what I am doing this past few months. I'm happy making some living in a silent mode and privately.
From calling myself as a mere newbie last 2021? I am now gonna call myself as a **certified noise.casher**. And, from **zero subscribers**? Now, I have **2765** (as of 8:32PM) and still growing. 💚
Aside from the incomputable earnings that I've got within my first 12 months here? I also gained other things, the **learnings** and a **virtual family**. I won't mention you, guys anymore coz you already know who you are. Thank you! Thank you for being a part of my journey here in noise.cash. May we still have more years to have chikahan and make our bonds more stronger. :)
Also, may noise.cash stays with us for way moooore years. Again ....
HAPPIEST FIRST ANNIVERSARY TO US, NOISE.CASH! 🎉

Accumulated 0.1 BCH In Just 10 Days
**Hello there, lovely bloggers!** 🍃
For today's article, we will just have some backtracking of what I accomplished this first 10 days of the year 2022. All of this happens from January 1st to the tenth day of the month.
*First, let's do some recap of the articles that I had published this past few days.*
January 01, 2022
**Hello, 2022! Are You Ready For Me?** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/hello-2022-are-you-ready-for-me-9d3f0866
This is my first article for the year. In here I just enumerated and shared some of the goals that I want to achieve this 2022. This are:
**More Bitcoin Cash (BCH) this 2022.**
**Establish my own business venture.**
**Be employed.**
**Travel and vacation with the family, more bonding together.**
**Finish my thesis paper.**
Do you think I can make this all happen? Hmm, I don't know too. But, I'll do my very best to have them all. FIGHTING! ✊🏻
January 03, 2022
**Cheers to a More Comfortable Studying and Hustling!** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/cheers-to-a-more-comfortable-studying-and-hustling-c01d9dd0
To have my more comfortable study table is one of my greatest wishes before. But, I kept holding myself back for this certain reason. Glad that I finally had one when I purchased a newly study table last January 02, 2022. It's a big thing to make our (I and my younger sibs') studies more comfortable and easier. No need to endure the pain in our b*tts for sitting in the floor coz our previous study table is indeed small and was just meant to be used by kids.
January 04, 2022
**A Day At The Barrio** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/a-day-at-the-barrio-a86b5f31
https://read.cash/c/filipino-readers-42bb/post-953a8395
Last January 04, we (I and the fam) had visited our grandparents who are living in the barrio, way too far from the city proper. In our hours of stay there, we really had fun and we had the chance to relax our minds, bodies, and souls for what we are doing in our lives.
January 06, 2022
**Someone Had Hurt My Baby AB!** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/someone-had-hurt-my-baby-ab-d7313b26
AB, is one of my cat babies. I treasured them so much, give them a lot of foods, sheltered them for more than 6 years, took care of them, and all for them to live more longer. But, a heart-wrecking event had happened and we just known it last January 06. This happens when we aren't staying in our former house and AB with her kitten goes back in that place. Now, her left leg (hindleg) is broken. As in! And, that made me, us so angry coz someone had hurt my baby without our knowledge. Who ever that person who did that, may he/she eats by her conscience. If ever she still has one.

**My Biggest BCH Conversion In 2021** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-biggest-bch-conversion-in-2021-7c3fd801
Year 2021 is when I entered the world of blogging and was then introduced to this amazing token called as **Bitcoin Cash** or simply **BCH**. I normally convert BCH into fiat (PHP) for my weekly load allowance and some necessities and normally ranges up to 0.1 BCH. But, something came up last December 2021 that needed a big financing. So then, I just decided to convert some of my BCH hodlings and that became my biggest conversion of the year. How much is that? Hmm, you can check out my article to know. <3
❤❤
I, as one of the content creators of this site (platform), one of my goals is to consistently published at least one article in every day. Well, of course, it is aside from continuously reading other content creators' articles and interacting with them. Apparently, I can't do this in a consistent way. Simply because my days are really busy, most of the time. Excluding the unending and sudden changes of mood and laziness, hehe~
Nonetheless, I am still so happy that I successfully written **7 articles** (including this one) out of the the first 10 days of 2022. Looking forward for more articles to write and published! 💕
What did I got in return for allotting my time and efforts for composing numbers of articles? I got three things: **(1)** learnings and enhanced my natural skills in writing; **(2)** broaden up the numbers of my friends here; and **(3)** *Bitcoin Cash*.
*Now, let's proceed to what I accomplished today.*
For writing up and making noises in here? Tadaaa!
I accumulated 0.1 BCH in just 10 days here in read.cash. 🌼
This is the second time that I reached 0.1 BCH this fast and quick. The first time was still in August 2021 for just about **12 days**. But, look! I made it again and it was even faster than the first time. **0.1 BCH in just 10 days?** OHMYGADDD! That's so surprising and unexpected for a wannabe writer like me to accomplish. And, thank you, guys and of course, to the ever-generous boyfriend of mine (Hihi! :D), **Rusty** or **TheRandomRewarded** for the continuous support and appreciation you are giving to me and to my works. 💛
Wishing us to have and accumulate more BCH on the next days, months, and even years. Let's keep on writing, y'all! Also, to influence and inspire other users out there (in noise.cash and outside this world) to join us here.
**HAPPY WRITING AND READING, CONTENT CREATORS!** 🥂

My Biggest BCH Conversion In 2021
Noise.cash and read.cash ...
We, users are aware that this sites are a **"free-BCH earning platforms."** Why considered it as **free**? Coz we don't invest any monetary or what in it as we joined this said platforms. Unlike Sir Marc and other persons behind this who were funding and donating lots of BCH just for this two to run for days and more.
Yes, we don't invest money. Instead, we just need to put more efforts, adequate time, dedication and passion, and ourselves for whatever we were doing and about to do here. And of course, don't just think of the earnings. Perhaps? Just enjoy the moment of learning, conquering, and growing both our minds and hearts.
This two platforms had helped me a lot all throughout my stay here. I slowly managed to finance my school needs and even my siblings'. More so, I can now spend for our family's necessities such as the foods and other home stuffs.
Upon my first months here, I usually convert weekly for my load which is worth of PHP 100.00 or $2. That's the amount that I often converted before. Have you still remembered when I shared that my noise.cash earnings are being hodl and I was just often spending my earnings in read.cash? For groceries, most of the time.
Maybe some of you, guys here are aware that I am now a **1 BCH Hodler**, since November 07, 2021. I shared this milestone when **Finally, I Successfully Unlocked My First 1BCH!**. If ever that I just don't need to convert so often? And, that I don't pinch for so many times? Maybe, I am now hodling about 3-4BCH. Oh, I hope so. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/finally-i-successfully-unlocked-my-first-1bch-7a8576fa
**By December 21, 2021, I am already on my road to 2 BCH for having** ****1.44+ BCH******.**
Ps. Exclude the part of PHP amount. That's not latest.
I thought that I can unlocked my 2 BCH before January 2022 ends or by the second week of February. But, I'm wrong. So sooo wrong. </3
Remember the time that we moved out and decided to just rent a boarding house? Days before **We Had Finally Moved Out**, I've been calculating the possible amount of spending that we need. And based from what I had estimated, we need **about PHP 9000.00 or $175.34**. Also, I'm thinking on where will I get the money for the deposit and the payment for our first month (which is for January). And for our groceries too, coz we don't have any stocks that time. Is it from my BCH hodlings or will my scholarship allowance will save me from converting my BCH into fiat? I won't consider my bank savings coz that's meant for other things. So, no no. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/we-had-finally-moved-out-2cca9fa4
But sadly, our allowance was delayed to be deposited in our own bank accounts. So, it leaved me with only one choice. But **to convert my BCH into PHP**. Actually, it's okay for me to convert but not that time because BCH price was having some skinny dipping down to the Marianas Trench. Apparently, I don't have any choice. I can't also obligated our parent coz that time? We're a bit financially-broke and I am the only one who's able to do the financing, that time.
So, okay. I just convert my hodlings with both of my eyes close and with so many swallowing.
Wondering how much BCH did I converted into Philippine Peso? Well, it's **0.44BCH**. During the low price of BCH, it's just about **PHP 9495.04**.
I've been pinching a lot of times in my read.cash earnings just to fill in my load allowance and some things to finance. So far, my biggest BCH conversion was just around 0.1+ BCH. During the pumps of BCH, that amount was already equivalent to PHP 3000.00+ or $60+. And this was being spend for any necessities like foods.
But, my biggest BCH conversion had happened the night of December 21, 2021.
For 0.44BCH, amounting only PHP 9000+. Aghhh! *Ang laki ng loss ko uy.* HUHUHU! If just BCH was pumping that time for PHP 30,000+ BCH? I will still be glad to covert that amount. But, hayst! In need eh. So, move on *na lang*. And, that's the record-breaker.
That BCH that I had converted was then transferred to my bank account to be withdrawn on the next day.
As I withdrawn them all, my first stop is to the Friendship Supermarket to buy our stocks. I bought about less than 20 in-canned foods, noodles, condiments, snacks, drinks, laundry and toiletry stuffs, ingredients for Christmas food presents, and more. In that, I spent **almost PHP 2600.00**, all complete *na*.
Next is to the dry market to buy veggies, meats, and some fruits. Then off to the Super99 to buy some things for the kitchen. Here, I bought two racks for our things in the kitchen and only spent about **PHP 200.00 ($4)**.
Lastly is to the rice store. Coz my budget is limited, I only buy 20 kilos of rice, good for about 15 days consumption. Minus **PHP 700.00 ($14)** to my current money.
And, tadaaa! Here's all that I had bought.
However, the spending wasn't finished at that. After I put down all the things at home, I go to our landlord's house and pay **PHP 3600.00** (PHP 1800 for the rent for January and the other half is for the deposit).
I don't know how much is the total but glad that I was left with more than **PHP 2000.00 ($38+)** for myself. *Bahala na ako kung saan ko 'to idadala.*
One question to ask for myself. **Do I feel regret for converting 0.44BCH?** Nope. Coz I am happy to spend for our family's needs and that BCH (along with noise.cash and read.cash) contributed a lot in me. So blessed and grateful! It's just that I felt sad the time that I converted it, BCH was dumping that time ey. And, I had a big loss. If BCH was just pumping that time? My 0.44BCH will be about PHP 12,000+ and to suffice my needed PHP 9000? I just need to convert around 0.3+BCH.
But, that's in 2021 *na.* And, I should move on and make it up today. In short, *bawiin na lang* in the next days. And, that's what I'm doing.
As of now, I had begun my road to **2 BCH**, take 2. And, look! I now have a progress by having **1.14+BCH** (as of January 09, 2022).
**Looking forward for more to come** ***pa*** **for me! But, lesser BCH pinching** ***sana.*** **Cheers to this, self. Claim it already.** 🥂✨
Just focus and be more determined and compassionate. And, you'll get there, soonest! <3

Top 3 Personalities That I Want To Be Noticed By
read.cash ...
A site that enables us to write an articles with any topics we want to subject. Aside from simply writing, we can **earn** too. In short, we are *hitting two birds with one stone.* Oh, I guess it is not just two but even more than this number. We can also enhance the natural writing skill within us and be great with in, slowly but surely. In addition, our grammar will be improved too.
In writing an article here in read.cash, we don't need to be great already. If we are not that fluent in English, either by writing or speaking, we can learn through reading other writers' articles and interact with other users in the comment sections. And, then start upon composing short posts until we already have the confidence and the urge to write articles. It doesn't mean that when you, we entered this world of blogging, we must write immediately. Nope, don't rush things if we don't feel doing it this times. We can start as simply a **reader**, coz I also believe that all of the writers out there had started in that stage.
Okay, enough with the long introduction. Now, let's go to the main topic.
As one of the thousands of **content creators** here in read.cash, my goal isn't just to earn and earn and earn. No, not just that thing. But, also to improve my natural skills in both writing and communicating with many people around the globe. Oh, my grammar too.
Aside from those ones, I am also aiming to get noticed by the known content creators of this site such as my co-Filipino; Ate Jane, Ate @bmjc98, Ate @Eirolfeam2, Ate @Ruffa and those foreign writers like Sir Marc, PVMihalache, Macronald, and many more to mention. I can't mention them coz I'm feeling so shy, haha~ And, I was so glad that I can now have series of talks with them like we really know each others' existence. Hello there, guys! :)
Now, lemme share this top **3 personalities here in read.cash that I've been dreaming to be noticed by.** ✨
First, TheRandomRewarder.
**Wondering who is this "Rusty" that we've been talking about in noise.cash? Is he our boyfriend or something or what?**
Everyone who's entering read.cash was aiming to get noticed by this so-called **Rusty** who is widely known as **TheRandomRewarder** or simply as **bot**.
Rusty isn't a person, coz he is a robot who is so fond of giving $ tips to our articles, either be a newbie or an oldie and that is his way of giving us rewards for our efforts. Rusty was giving such dollars to any users (content creators or writers), **randomly** and with no specific amount/s.
When I created a read.cash account on the first and second attempts, Rusty didn't visited me immediately like other newbies out here was experiencing. I gained his attention first, for more than a month since I came back last June 20, 2021. And, after waiting for him? Tadaaa! He finally visited me by **July 27, 2021**, for the very first time. Here is my article that he first visited: **July 27, 2021: The Day That I Was Waiting For!****.** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/july-27-2021-the-day-that-i-was-waiting-for-ca5ffef1
Since that day, he often visits me and it added so much inspiration for me to keep writing and had even set my interest and passion more higher.
*Here are some of my November and December articles that he visited more often and had flooded with overflowing rewards:*
**November 2021**
**Finally, I Successfully Unlocked My First 1BCH!****: $19.47** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/finally-i-successfully-unlocked-my-first-1bch-7a8576fa
**Some Of The Risks That Stops Us From Hustling****: $16.99** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/some-of-the-risks-that-stops-us-from-hustling-c1076c1f
**The Degree Courses I Think They'll Take In College****: $14.03** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/the-degree-courses-i-think-theyll-take-in-college-8594911a
**My Bucket List Before I Settled Down****: $22.02** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-bucket-list-before-i-settled-down-d1956bd6
**December 2021**
**Hello, Club1BCH!****: $22.44** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/hello-club1bch-797d89cc
**Tues-Yey Unwinding!****: $11.75** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/tues-yey-unwinding-8eec1ee1
**We're Gonna Move Out****: $17.59** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/were-gonna-move-out-25b9a841
**Perks Of Being A Scholar: It Enables Me To?****: $11.50** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/perks-of-being-a-scholar-it-enables-me-to-46ec4e88
As of now, it seems like we have a lovers quarrel (LQ) but I'm willing to wait. Just for our relationship to be more stronger and in good state. Kidding~ haha. Seriously talking, I will still stay here and make him visit me, no matter what happens.
**Cheers to more visitations from Rusty, this year 2022!** 🥂
Now that I already gained Rusty's attention, what's next? Hmmm, I still have this two persons in mind. Who are they? Look at the attached photo below this text.
Already know who they are? Let's now proceed to the next person.
Second, PVMihalache.
**PVMihalache** or simply **PVM**, (PV stands for Paul-Valentin, from what I had searched and wasn't even sure if that he really is but the photos says it all ey) is one of the popular writers in both noise.cash and read.cash, not to mention his works outside this two sites.
He is one of the founders of the Club1BCH, along with Ate @Eybyoung and is a very great companion in blogging and trading. *Sana tama mga pinagsasasabi ko, hehe~* And, when I did some research on who he really is, gadddd! I was so overwhelmed, like my two eyes had nearly go out from their sockets. As in!
So, back to the topic. Ever since I set my foot here, I already dreamt of being noticed by this man. Especially, my works. And, no more "hope all" coz I already had achieved this one, too. ❤❣
He noticed me when I finally became one of the members of the Club1BCH last December 04, 2021. I written an article about this accomplishment and he don't just simply commented in there (like what I had dream of). He even gave me some tips, wieeee!
See that? Ahhhhh! My eyes had really widened when I saw the notification indicating that he really gave my article some tips, for real.
And this is his comment, "**Welcome to our family.**" Four words but had a big impact within my passion.
And just this night of January 07, 2022, he gave me some tips in this certain post of mine, https://noise.cash/post/1mrj903x.
Even if it was just from NoiseCashFund, it still made me happy. Yipieee!
Third, Sir Marc De Mesel.
Of course, who wouldn't know this oh-so-generous person?
At the beginning, I am not aware of him nor of who he was. But, as I stayed in noise.cash and read.cash for a longer duration of time, I became curious of him. And, that curiosity grows bigger until I am also aiming to be noticed by him.
Sir Marc isn't just known for being a whale (as per Ate @Pachuchay's definition in her post), other name for investor. But, also for being so generous. How was he considered as generous? He gave huge tips to selected users of the sites, as in huuuuge tips. I know some users that was showered by him like my friend @carisdaneym2, Ate MJ, and Kuya @Carewind. Hope all, *chars~* :D
But, I am not just after him because of the tip. Yes, that's considerable but not just that. It was more on the curiousity of how does it feel to be noticed by him. Seriously, how *nga ba,* guys? :)
I wanna mentioned him here to say my "thank you" for funding this sites but I was shy, so shy. 😅 But, okay. Let's give it a shot. :D
Thank you Sir @MarcDeMesel for this. You along with Sir Simon and the team, funding this sites was so helpful to us, users. As in, it was indescribable. We will surely make this opportunity you opened for us so worth it. 💓

Someone Had Hurt My Baby AB!
Pet lovers ...
There are so many of us here in noise.cash and read.cash that are fond of having pets. To the point that we can consider ourselves as **pet lovers**.
One of the most popular pets that I've been seeing here is none other than, **cats**. Many users had been taking care of numbers of cats for so long, either it be months or even years. Some of the cat Moms out here are Ate @Kelzy and Ate @Pachuchay. Hello there, big sissies! :)
If you we're having some talks with us in noise.cash, you may already know that our cats had also their names. Yes, just like hoomans and other pets.
But, we will not focus in this one. In this article, I will share what happened today to one of my babies. Something that triggered the most unwanted feeling within me, that I've been avoiding to feel for so long. What is it? Keep scrolling to know.
Before we proceed to the main topic of this article, let me first introduced you, guys and gals, to my babies.
Here they are:
The cat in the upper part is **"Medy"** and the one at the bottom part is **"AB."** Both of them are *Pusang Pinoy* or this what we call as Puspin/s, this are the cats with no specific breeds. Wondering where their names came from? Here's how.
*Storytelling*
**Medy** is a male cat with a fur of mixed white, gray, and black. His name is actually from the word "*medyas*" or socks in English terminology. It is because his legs (both foreleg and hindleg) are in color white, making it looks like him wearing a pair of socks.
Meanwhile, **AB** (pronounced as "Ey-bi") is a cat with genitals for females and with this unusual colors of fur. I can't clearly describe it but it's a colors of black, white, brown or golden, and yellow and was mixed altogether. What does AB stands for? Hehe, don't laugh. Okay? It means "*abnormal.*" Her color was so unusual *kasi* ay. :D *Ewan ko ba, ah basta.* 😅
They are the offspring of our first ever cat, but sadly, she's dead already. Papa said that she was hit by a vehicle. Can't remember it, though. AB and Medy was with us since I was in Grade 9 (JHS), around September 2015, and up until now that I am already in third year college. To sum up? It's been more than **6 years** *na*. Looking forward for more years with them.
The two of them are all close with our family, especially to me. I'm their Momma eh. When I am at home, they are always after me. Sitting beside me, sleeping with me, and if I need to stay late in the nights to study? They are at my side, in short? They are also *puyaters* like me. Haha!
Both of them are a certified cuddlers (*malambing*), sweet, but both are also moody. Imagine, they will just bite or scratch you so suddenly even though you'll just walk in front of them. And, AB? Oh, she's a picky eater. As in! She'll smell it for minutes but will end up of not eating her foods. *Choosy, amp*. While, Medy will eat whatever you gave him.
As we moved out from our house by December 21, they wasn't with us as they was left at the house *pa.* But when we returned on the next day to get them, they are so elusive already and won't go near us especially Medy. Seems like they *nagtampo* to us. </3 But we didn't give up until AB and her 3 kittens had came home by the morning of December 27.
At first, she kept roaming and running around until she got used to her new surrounding. Sadly, after days, she and her kittens suddenly vanished and bro saw them at our old house. Don't know how they found the way to that place to think of that they a total cat-house (*pusang-bahay*). Papa said that we should let them be first and so does we.
This morning of January 06, we go to our old house to get Tita's plants and transfer them here at the boarding house, coz Tita was worried that they'll wilted and die*.* On our third return, bro heard a cat meowing. And, when he searched at the are, he saw AB under the piled of rusty metallic roofs. Looking so thin and her eyes screams of so much missing.
I'm so happy to see her again and was hoping to see Medy too and bring them with us, at our new home. But that happiness had vanished so quickly and was then replaced with another emotion when bro said this set of words,
**"Ate, may nambambo yata kay AB. Bali 'yung paa n'ya."**
(Cc: Ate, seems like someone had hit AB. Her leg is broken."
I was holding the third pot to put at our tricycle when he said this and I immediately got my feet glued at where I am standing at. So, I put down the pot and go near them. Only to hear AB's painful meows. What did I felt that time? My heart beats so fast, not because I am tired from what we're doing. But because, **I'm angry**.
*I shared this one in one of my today's posts in noise.cash:* https://noise.cash/post/l6946rvq
She can't even make steps on her own when she go to me. That time? My eyes immediately watered. If I just hadn't controlled myself? I will cry in an open space. As in, I may sound so over-reacting but that's the truth. *Para akong nagliliyab sa galit kanina*.
I'm not a fan of this negative feeling but I can't help it upon seeing my baby hurting. When I closely looked at her, her eyes was somehow cloudy too. Not because of morning glory but due to the pain that she's up that moment and until now.
I can't even imagine how she shouted using her cat's voice when she was hit by something or whatever it is. Maybe you will say that maybe she fell from somewhere, but she's not a fan of climbing ey. She rarely do that at home and with the looks of her leg? It's not an injury from felling. It's an injury inflicted by someone, but I don't know who it is.
I don't want to blame immediately but I only have four persons in mind that may possibly do that unforgiveable action.
*Mama's younger brother, one of her two unmannered Aunts, their male and boastful cousin, and the old man in the first house.*
Mama's brother is angry at them and the next two, too. The last one is pissed with our pets even they're not doing anything bad at him.
At that moment, I felt my legs to get jelly and weaken. So, I asked bro to grab any plants and we should go home with AB. But, she's elusive and bro seems to noticed the sudden changes of my mood and so he said that he'll just come back in there and get AB. Medy was nowhere to be found that time, I'm worried to.
When we got home, I said it to Mama and Papa and they are so furious especially Mama. Thank, God that she volunteered to go there coz I think I can't go there anymore coz my tears are already pooling in my eyes. The moment I entered our room, they all fell like a waterfalls.
After almost 20 minutes, they returned with AB. Bro added that he'll just get her kitten some other time.
And, so I immediately locked myself and AB in our room. I'm talking to her and kept murmuring questions like, **"bakit ka pa kasi bumalik 'dun?"** (Cc: Why did you go back in there *pa kasi*?) and asking her who hurt her. Hoping that she'll answer me back but all that she did is purred at me and uttered a long and painful "meow." Imagine how painful is it for me, her Momma? 🥺
We can't even afford to hurt them coz we loved them so much then other people will just do that to her? Is it because we are not around and they think that they are now free to do whatever they want with them? Oh just, how dare them?
I am not a saint, but I know that I'm a good person and I won't never tolerate such animal violence. I won't do any legal actions coz I don't know who did that but instead, I'll just let their conscience to eat them all up.
As of now, AB is in our bed and sleeping for almost an hour already. We let her rest after she ate her snacks.
We're (especially, me) observing her condition and if she won't show any changes after a week, maybe I'll bring her to a veterinary clinic *na.*
Please, get well soonest, baby. Momma is so worried right now. You don't want that, right? So, get yourself up and let's make you recover, as soon as possible. 😘
As per Medy and AB's kittens, we'll get them and bring it here. That's a promise and for my feelings to be more *mapanatag*. Just wait there, babies. Okay? Momma will bring you home in my shoulders, before someone hurt you, guys too.

Hello, everyone! ◉‿◉
It's me, imanagrcltrst and I just dropped by to say my "thank you" to Mareng @Sequoia for renewing her sponsorship to me. KAMSAHAMNIDA, mareee! 🥰🌻
A Day At The Barrio
**Unwinding ...**
That's what I really need this days, especially that busy days had already came in my way and will surely make me even more occupied on the following days. Aside from hustling, what does make me busy? To think that we are still in a vacation. Well, say hello to thesis outline.
Last night, I started the first revision of my thesis outline and so happy that I made such a big progress before I go to bed that night. As of this moment, I already had finished this parts:
◎ **Introduction part:** importance of the study and statement of the problems.
◎ **Literature Cited**
After doing this parts, I feel so drained as I lay down the bed. So, when I had known that Mama and Papa was planning to pay some visit to our grandparents' house (Papa's side) today, Tuesday? I immediately said, "yes" coz I really need some more time to relax as it'll be so difficult to have on the next days.
**Fast forward ...** ⏩
Morning of Tuesday (January 04, 2022) had come and I woke up by exactly 7:08AM. Just grabbed some minutes, almost an hour, for my *muni-muni* then get up from the bed to start my usual morning routine and to prepare for our errand for today.
By 9:35AM, I already finished taking a bath and will do my cycle of dressing, preparing my things, and putting some girly stuffs to my face. Though, it's just a face powder and lip shiner only. Hehe~ and tadaaa! Before 10AM, I'm already done and ready to go.
But then, I remembered that my parents are soooo slow to take a bath. Maybe 30 minutes will do? Then, another one hour for Papa? Haha. So because I feel so *naiinip* (bored) already for so much waiting? I lay down the bed for the meantime and scrolled in my subscription tab in noise.cash.
And, finally! By 10:58AM, we leaved the house and started travelling for an estimated 30-40 minutes of sitting in our family vehicle.
While on the way to the city proper, Mama asked me what snacks will we buy and so I said that maybe we should just buy Pancit Malabon and that's what we did. We stopped over to the popular Pancit Malabon seller in the city and bought one worth of PHP 300.00 and some lumpiang sariwa. Nyaaaarm! Happy tummy again. #BigTummyLater, hihi.
The sun's heat was so excruciating that it feels like our skin will be burned off even just for 5-minutes of waiting for Mama.
After buying some merienda, I asked Papa to maneuver to the nearest LandBank ATM (Automated Teller Machine) coz my wallet don't have some paper bills inside anymore. *Puro* coins *na lang*. :D I withdrawn **PHP 5000.00 ($97.28)** from my bank savings for the last two months of payment of Papa's motor and for some expenses too.
After minutes (almost 30 minutes) of travelling from city proper to Papa's parents' house, tadaaaa! We had finally arrived at their house.
Upon arriving in their place? I can't help but to had series of deep "inhale and exhale." Why? Coz the air was so fresh, as in! I can't even smell any smoke from the surroundings nor foul smells. Seems like pollution isn't welcome in their place.
See the photo above? The blue sky was evidently so clear that it can make my eyes glued at it. So as the sound of the wind that was invading my ears and the cold breeze that's caging me in. 🍃
Ah! I won't really exchange the freshness of the air, the calmness, and peacefulness of a province vibes for any grandiose and modernized cities out there. Nothing can replace it.
*I shared this gala of our family in this noise.cash posts of mine. You can check it anytime, guys.*
https://noise.cash/post/l76x349k (as of 12:54PM) and https://noise.cash/post/19z94j74 (by 3:02PM).
It's been almost two months since we last visited them and upon roaming around their house? I saw that their kitchen was renovated and their backyard? OMG! I love it! It became more spacious and if I was just living in there? I will really fill it all with plants and crops. So suitable for backyard gardening ey.
And, look! Their ducks and chicken now had a more wider place to run at and they had became more compare to the last time.
Coz I am at a perfect place this afternoon? Of course, I won't let the chance to pass without me taking a power nap and so do I. From quarter to 2PM until past 3PM, I was sleeping soundless. And got up from Lola's bed because sis wakes me up for a reason that make her cells so excited. What is it? Because Lolo and Lola will get us some mango fruits from their backyard. Wieee~
They have four mango trees at the backyard and another two at the front yard. So, tadaaa! We had fill a plastic bags with mangoes. So happy *na naman si* sis. Haha!
What I really loved when we are visiting them? The way that they spoiled us, especially Lolo? Oh, he may be not in good terms with Papa when he was young but he was so good as a grandfather to us, his grandchildren. Even though I and my sibs was just his grandchildren from his stepson, he still treats us so good.
So, aside from a very delicious tinolang native *na manok,* meriendas, and stocks of mangoes? They also gave us a plastic full of varieties of chocolates that Lola and Tito (Papa's stepbrother) bought in Manila, clothes, papayas, and a live chicken. Oh *di'baaaa?* :)
Of course, our family gala won't be completed with photo takings. Or should it be called as pictorials? :D
In the photo collage below, Mama and sis are here to show their beauty and sexiness. Wit wew, LOL!
Actually, Mama doesn't know that I'm getting some photos of her. She thought that I'm just after the leaves above her, haha. Sssshh!
Then, what about my sister? Isn't obvious that I had some candid-like photos of her? :D Anyways, she's so pretty right? And, tall too. More taller than me. In fact, she's now about my ears and in no time? I will look like her younger sister due to my height. HAHAHA!
Next is me and our cutie and chubby lil cousin, Zavina.
She's not fond of picture taking. So, here. I just had her candid shots and held her in my arms just to have a photo with her. I super love the first one in this collage, even though she ain't looking at the camera.
Thank yah, sis for being our photographer! :)
And, who would let this chance pass without having a solo pictures? Of course, it's not me. Haha~
Tadaaaa! Here's some of my solo shots. I so love my first and third shots, kyaaaah! And, the last one? That's cute *uy*. Seems like I was just having some selfie with my newly bought piece of farm land. 🤪
This day is so worth it to be shared and that's what I did. I shared my edited and compiled photos in my Facebook 'my day'. Look at the next photo attached.
I really adored this line in Daya's Sit Still, Look Pretty, **"this gal right here's gonna rule the world."** Can't wait for the moment that I can rule my own world. The world that I had built with my success. Well, soonest, self! Claim it already. ✨
And, as of now? My photo already have **108 views** for 7 hours and received lots of hearts. Some of them are from Ate @Ruffa and Ate @Usagi. Thankieee! (✿◠‿◠)
For our today's gala, I did something to sis. A funny yet pissing one for her, haha. What is it? Well, I just put her slippers at the roof in the backyard. She left it at the door *kasi*, so tadaaa!
When she was about to follow us in the backyard to pick some mango fruits, that's just the moment she had noticed her missing slippers. She asked me and Mama if we saw it but we said no. Yes, Mama knows about what I did coz she's with me at that moment. :D
Sis was already pissed and was about to cry. So, I shown it *na*. She even said, "**Nahihilo na ako kahahanap. Parang nakikipag-biruan naman sa'yo."** Hehez~ sorry *pooooo*! :D
Sharing a photo of her while she's being pissed. 😁
*Today, I had a great time to unwind and relax my mind and body. For sure that the family, too. Looking forward for the next time to spend ..*
**A day at the barrio! <3**
That's all for now, fellas! Hope you like this one.

Cheers to a More Comfortable Studying and Hustling!
**Ohayooo, lovely content creators! :)**
Yesterday, I wasn't able to write an article due to my overloaded to-do. Nonetheless, I am now currently composing one for today's entry.
What is this article all about? Well, it's just me sharing what my scholarship allowance made me able to purchased yesterday.
What is it? If you are one of my readers in noise.cash, maybe you already had some hint on what this things is.
Anyways, without further ado, let's proceed ..
As a student and a grinderist (hustler), one of what I wanna have is to have a more comfortable studying and working area at home. Especially during this times that students are just inside their house, specifically at their rooms, to do their activities. And, a **study table** will do the thing aside from a healthy surroundings.
Apparently, our house before **We Had Finally Moved Out** was so tight and not that spacious. Especially our room that can just accommodate our bed (more so, a foam) that we are using at night and a small dura box too. So when morning comes, we will fix it up and put all the pillows and other stuffs in one corner for us to have some space to study. Then, will just put it back at night to be used upon sleeping. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/we-had-finally-moved-out-2cca9fa4
All that I and sis was using for studying is a small table that I bought last 2020 for PHP 380.00 or $7.45. (*Oh di'ba*, I still remembered it. :D).
I am saving to purchase a more comfortable and bigger study table but I was holding back myself because we don't have enough space on where to place it.
I had shared in my post in noise.cash (https://noise.cash/post/l34608z8) about the distribution of our scholarship allowance just the morning of December 31, 2021. I got **PHP 2500.00** or equivalent to **$49.12**. Some are spent for the presents for the New Year's Eve and my treat for myself (read post here: https://noise.cash/post/10q6847g). But, I made sure to set aside a thousand pesos for my, our study table.
Since that the boarding house that we are residing right now is way more spacious? And also, after holding myself to buy one? Finally! **I had successfully bought one yesterday afternoon, January 02, 2022.** 💃🏻
Actually, no one in the family knows that I will buy one. The only reason that Mama and Papa knows why I'm going to the city proper is that I will buy our meal for the dinner. Wanna surprise them ey, hehe~
I told Papa to just dropped me at the Super99 in our city. As I entered the establishment, I immediately go to the second floor to look for a table. But those table that only available at the moment are for the living room like center tables. And, oh! There's also a table for studying purposes but there has several flaws already like permanent dirts and scratches.
And so, I proceed to Novo Department Store. But like the last store, dining tables are just available. Last stop? To ALLWAYS.
This is the last station that I have in mind. If there's no available one, then I'll just get the one in Super99. Why am I in rush? Coz I want to start the revision of my thesis outline by today (Monday) in a comfortable set-up.
And, good thing is that they have variety of choices to offer. There has two tables that I'm choosing at. The one with 60x41 cm size and the table with the size of 61x97 cm. The first one is also good but kinda more expensive than the second one as it has a price of PHP 999.00 ($19.57) compared to the table with a bigger dimension.
After minutes of thinking and thinking, I come up with a decision. In the end, I chose the table with 61x97cm size. For a price of PHP 980.00 ($19.17). Kinda expensive but because I and my siblings can use it for our studies, then I just did some swallowing and bought it with eyes closed. :D
*Shared in this noise.cash post:* https://noise.cash/post/lp5vn9qx
Tadaaa! Here it is. Thank you to this staff and to the lady guard for light assistance and upon securing my study table. 💕
Mama and sis was so surprised to see this table inside our room. Though, I just lied a bit to Mama regarding its price. I said that it was just for less than PHP 600.00, hehe~ Sorry, 'Ma!
Coz I was so excited to use it *na,* I then immediately arranged some stuffs in there. Tadaaa! Here's the initial set-up of our table.
This morning, I cleaned our room coz it's kinda messy and I can see dirt with some of our things.
After the clean-up, I then also arranged our stuffs and transferred some in the table including my laptop. Look! It's more organized *na.*
Just that it's not yet done coz I am planning to put some wallpaper in the wall in front of me. For a more lighter and cooler vibes, of course. I will do it tomorrow coz I need Papa's assistance *pa* and he's not around today.
Now? I can now say this ..
"Cheers to a more comfortable studying and hustling, self and sibs!" ❤❣
Now that I'm done with my study table? What's next?
In my list for our home things, this are:
**Dining table**; **washing machine and a dryer**; and **some linoleum.**
Yesterday, I also did some canvassing of the price of dining table and washing machine. The one that catches my attention is nearly **PHP 600.00** for the dining table and almost **PHP 6000.00 ($111.43)**.
They are all pricey and so I need to save more, first. Claiming that I'll have this things before this year 2022 ends. **FIGHTING!** 💛💪🏻

Hello, 2022! Are You Ready For Me?
2 0 2 2 !
We're all done with 2021. Now, we are down to another year.
**Hello to you, 2022! Please, be good to us.** 💚
2021 had bought us so many things and to sum them all, they are mostly blessings, achievements, and life's struggles.
In the past year, a huge opportunity had knocked up in my door. All thanks to my real-life friend @carisdaneym2 for introducing noise.cash, read.cash, and this awesome Bitcoin Cash. Upon entering the life of simply as a mere and trying hard user at the beginning then to a content creator, real quick, I had two things. What are they?
First, **source of income** that I had used to fill-in our family's needs. And another one is, **I discovered how far can I be in this world of writing**. Being one of the content creators here, it made me cherish and miss those days when I was still in the publishing team of our college. It wakes up the real spirit of content creating, deep within me. To the point that it made me want to come back as a writer in our team, even if I need to start at the ground again. Oh, how I hope that they'll open another application again.
Being one of the hundreds or thousands of creators here, had made me able to reach and make most of goals for 2021 happen for real. Now that we are already into another year to spend at, another set of goals are awaiting to be accomplished.
In this article, let me share the first five (5) goals that I was aiming for this 2022.
**More Bitcoin Cash (BCH) this 2022.**
By January 02 (the day that I first joined in read.cash) is also the same day that I was introduced to Bitcoin Cash (BCH). At my first six months (January to June 2021) in here, both read.cash and noise.cash, I was doing this routine of **accumulate BCH for a week then convert them immediately**. For an instance, I will accumulate about PHP 100-150 per week, I will then convert it right away by Sundays. But then, I said to myself that why not try another thing, the thing that they was doing. The **accumulating BCH and hodl them for longer duration of time**.
And so, I started it by last July 2021. Like you, guys, I also experienced to pinch some in my hodlings. As in, a lot of times. Making my goals to reach 1 BCH achievable for too long. And, **Finally, I Successfully Unlocked My First 1BCH!** just this November 07, 2021. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/finally-i-successfully-unlocked-my-first-1bch-7a8576fa
I'm near to my 2 BCH this month as I already reached 1.4+ BCH. But sadly, I need to convert that 0.4+ BCH on the last week of December. And, this 2022? I will start again my road to 2 BCH with this hodlings.
For this year of the tiger, 2022, I am aiming to unlocked (at least) my 2 to 3 BCH. If I get more luckier, then maybe I can exceed this numbers. Hopinggg! 💛 Coz if I made it happen? One of my goals before I finished my bachelor's degree, about one and a half year from now, will be achieved. What is it? **To buy our own lot.** So, let's do our very best, self. FIGHTINGGG!
**Establish my own business venture.**
This 2022, I feel this extreme urge to do my goal to put up a business. Even the smallest one that I know. And, I will start it this first week of January 2022. How to? Through starting an **e-loading business**. Here at the place that we're residing at, our neighbors had to go to stores coz no one was offering an e-load here. So, yeah. I will just do the thing. :)
Then, when I already purchased my own printer and copier, I will start another one which is about **printing and photocopying**. And as an Agriculture student? The wants to have my own farm is always included. This year, I wanna establish a business about farming, specifically through **hydroponics and organic farming**. But it'll require a lot of efforts, capital, and the knowledge. So, will do my "Do Your Own Research", first. Let's see if I can turn it into something real! 💪🏻
**Be employed.**
Since that my and our family's needs are continuously growing, along with my ultimate dream to be **financially stable and free** at a young age, I think I need to double up my phase and move mooore. How to? Through grinding and hustling. of course. But, I don't want to just depend in my earnings at the blogging sites coz I am also aware that they aren't for permanent. So, I need to find some other source of income. And, that's to be employed.
As of now, I am planning to asked someone in the municipal hall about the vacancy or job offerings. I do specifically targeting to work at the Department of Agriculture Office in our municipality. If I got the chance to work at that office, I am able to hit two birds with one stone. I learned more and get experience about the field I chose and love and the chance and opportunity to earn.
If not in this office, anywhere will do. Just for me to have another earnings. *Tyagaan* (perseverance) *lang 'yan. 💕*
**Travel and vacation with the family, more bonding together.**
Travel outside our province. When was the last time that our family we had one? Hmm, I think I was just in Grade 11 that time, maybe about almost 4 years ago? I can't remember, anymore. And, so as the vacation. Why? We don't have enough extra money to conquer other places aside from inside our province. Yah know, primary needs comes first before other things. Our motto coz we are indeed lacking financially.
Coz I wanna treat myself and our family with some quality time (just the five of us), maybe I should include traveling and having 1-2 days vacation with them. Maybe once every quarter of the year will do. Well, it depends *pala* with our financial status. But, I will pursue to have one within this summer (around April or May). Since that I need to save money *pa* for my plan staycation, I need to work and hustle more and harder.
My initial plan? To **Bolinao, Pangasinan**. Since that I can't afford those far place *pa*, let's just go in near place *muna*. Why consider Bolinao, Pangasinan? I've been seeing my college mates with their gala in that place and from the photos and videos that they've been sharing? It's so beautiful and peaceful in there. As in!
And so, I will start planning this one this week. Also, the itinerary and finances.
**Finish my thesis paper.**
By January 24, our classes will start again. By that time, I will be in my second semester of my third year in college. Three semesters go to *na lang*, self. And, you'll have that dream diploma of you and your parents. Well, I hope that that was that easy as 1, 2, and 3. Why? Thesis is waving. Uhuuuu! Our department was known for the beyond great works of doing research, studies, and thesis. *Panlapan* in both local and international *'to, mga* amigo *at* amiga. So, that's an additional pressure to us. Then, we're still into distant mode of learning *pa.* (T__T)
Good thing that my thesis adviser was so good and was pushing us to graduate right on time. So, tadaaa! We're down to the first revision of our individual thesis outline. Then, once that it was all good, we'll present it with our adviser, Department Head, and our respective critics. In my case, it's our College Dean.
Within this year, I will push myself to finish my whole thesis paper. The final one ah. So that I will just think of my final defense and manuscript by the second semester of A.Y. 2022-2023. Hoo! It's the biggest and heaviest goal of mine this year, so I need to bear myself *talaga.*
Anyways, self? Fighting! So, you can finally take your licensure exam after and right in time of what you originally planned.
**FIGHTING, FUTURE PLANT DOCTOR!**
**PADAYON, FUTURE LICENSE AGRICULTURIST!** 🧡💚
Remember that the country needs you, so fighting *lang talaga!* :)
**That's all for my first five and initial goals this 2022. In my next article, will share my 2022 Resolutions** ***naman*****. 🤗**
Before I end this article, lemme share one of the biggest blessings that I received this January 01, 2022.
Last December 30, 2021, I dropped an email to this distinct group of people in our university that organized a **Give A Gift** project. In here, they wanna know why we deserved to received a cash gift from them (ranging from PHP 500 to as high as PHP 1000) and they will pick 3-5 students with most good answers.
Though, what I told in the email isn't for me. But for the gift that I wanna give to Mama this year, what is it? Her own washing machine. Kinda heavy *din kasi* for me to immediately buy one coz we and I have so many things to finance at this moment, so I need to save *pa muna.*
And, omooo! I wash so shocked to received an email from them this afternoon. Stating that I am one of the selected recipients of their cash grant and I'll have **PHP 750.00 ($15)**. Gaddd! He was really so great. 🥰
What will I do in this one? I will save it up in my bank account or I will just buy another piggy bank and will save it until I finally completed the money needed for her washing machine. Hoo! So much to start the year 2022 ey. I was literally being showered with blessings. So grateful *si* self! 💓
That's all for this article. THANK YOU FOR READING! <3

Showered with Blessings and Opportunities Two Days Before 2021 Ends
2021 ..
The year wherein we faced so many challenges. Either be it due to health issues, calamities, financial crisis, mental and emotional breakdowns, losses, anything.
But, it is also another year that we are showered with lots of blessings. So many blessings that we can't even count it all nor remember them all. They can be big and small, but regardless of how big or small they are? They are still blessings.
This year, it brought me so many opportunities and also, blessings. One is those from noise.cash and read.cash whereas it serves as a primary way for me to gain and learn cryptos like our beloved Bitcoin Cash (BCH). My earnings from this sites made me able to do and purchased so many things that are so useful for me and our family.
Through my earning in here, I had managed to support our family's needs, in the most simplest ways that I know. Such as buying groceries, rice, medicines, and other essential things at home.
Also through this sites and with BCH, it made me able to bring my Mama to a clinic to treat her when she got sick for more than two weeks and was then diagnosed with sinusitis. I successfully paid all the expenses at the clinic and bought all the medicines for her 10 days medication with the help of this awesome sites. All thanks to Sir @MarcDeMesel and the team for funding this said sites. ❣❤ (Sorry for the tag *po!* ^_^)
Aside from this, the first payment and additional deposit for the boarding house that we're currently residing at are from my earnings in this two sites, that was **PHP 3,600.00 or 70.53 USD**. Then, the groceries, rice, and other stuffs (e.g. racks) that I had bought the day after we moved out are also from them. More so, the presents and gifts that I prepared for this Christmas 2021. Imagine how helpful they are? Oh, I can't imagine it sometimes coz yah know, it's so indescribable and even exceeds the wideness of my imagination. <3
On the contrary, this article isn't just to commemorate how helpful this sites are to me. We'll get there in my next articles. *wink*
In here, I wanna share the blessings that I had received and the opportunities that had opened for me, two days before 2021 ends. ✨
*This said blessings and opportunities had all happened yesterday (December 30, 2021) and today, (December 31, 2021).*
`Let's first discuss the blessings ...`
**Became a beneficiary of Isang Libong Pisong Load Card.**
I already shared this one in my recent post in noise.cash. View post using this link: https://noise.cash/post/1gkmkgp9.
Our university's USSC (University Supreme Student Council) had launched a load card assistance for the selected students in our university. This is my first time to try their project like this one. Actually, I don't know what gotten into me to try this one even if I can finance my weekly load *naman*. 😅 But, I had realized that it'll be a great way to lessen my expenses if I will be granted as a beneficiary. PHP 100.00 ($2) worth of load per week is sometimes heavy ey~
Last December 22 (Wednesday), I had a follow-up interview via phone call with the interviewer assigned in our college. Then just yesterday (December 30), the list of beneficiaries was uploaded.
And, tadaaaa! My name was in the list of the third year students who are also granted with the load card. Yipieee~
This PHP 1,000.00 load card will surely lessen my expenses for my weekly load for maybe two months or so. It depends~ and, I am also planning to share it to our family too when they need it. 💛
**First semester allowance for City Government Scholars.**
This blessing was also shared by me in my noise.cash account: https://noise.cash/post/l34608z8 and https://noise.cash/post/10q6847g.
In my recent article, **Perks Of Being A Scholar: It Enables Me To?**, I had shared here the scholarships that I have. And, I also stated that my allowances are already delayed to be distributed. Yesterday, I did some budgeting for my expenses for this coming New Year's Eve. I only have PHP 500.00 ($10) in my wallet and the only possible way to add my budget is to convert a bit of my BCH hodlings into fiat. I can't withdraw some in my bank account coz that's another thing. I wanna make them at ease *lang*. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/perks-of-being-a-scholar-it-enables-me-to-46ec4e88
It's kinda hard and heavy to convert during this times as BCH price was still low and seems like it don't want to go to moon *pa*. </3 But then, my worries had suddenly popped up. When I had read this message from our Officer-In-Charge in the Municipal Hall. Charaaannn! It was stated that our allowance will be given this day, around 9AM to 12NN.
And so, I alarmed my clock in my phone by 4:30AM, 5:00AM, and 5:30AM. Yes, *sunod-sunod talaga.* Haha~ but arghhh! I still ended up waking up by 7:08AM. See? Clearly shows that I sleep like an oil. (*Hah? Ano daw? Ah basta, tulog-mantika 'yun! :D*)
Coz Papa had to drive our neighbor to the city proper by 7:30AM, I need to wait for him to go home. And around quarter to ten o'clock, I arrived at the venue. Only to see a very looooooong line. The line had started in front of the municipal building's entrance to the Bureau of Fire Protection building and was doubled *pa.* And, the sun's heat was so scorching too ah.
@carisdaneym2, look who I got in the photo above. :D Good thing that I had seen one of my close friends in our course in the line. She messaged me with "Hello" coz she's not sure *daw* if it was really me. Haha~ I'm wearing a face mask *kasi*.
As we got a long and lot of chikahan, we hadn't aware that we are near to the Treasurers Office's staff already. **Yieee~ PHP 2,500.00 ($49.12), come to Mamehhh!** 🥰🤪
After I got my 5 months worth of allowance (PHP 500.00 or $2, each month), I bid my "bye-bye" to my friend and greeted her a "Happy New Year" too. Then, I'm off to go to my next destination which is in the market.
I first dropped to Friendship Supermarket to buy ingredients for crema de fruta then proceeded to the market to buy a pack of hotdogs and our *ulam* for this lunch. After that, I go to the fruit stalls and bought five different fruits in round shape (such as red apples, oranges, pears, grapes, and tangerine). Yah know, foods and things with round shape will bring lucks to the person or family *daw.*
Aside from this, I also bought some bread and spreads and ordered a kilo of barbecue to Mama's friend for PHP 280.00, *presyong pang-kaibigan daw* coz the original price is PHP 340.00.
At the end? Tadaaaa! I look so haggard and my face feels soooo oily *na*. Hehe~
Of course, I wouldn't forget to treat myself for every money that was coming to me. It's my new motto this 2021 to always buy something for me and not just for the family. And, this is what I got for myself. A new **khaki-colored trending Korean fashionable sandals**. 👡
Gadddd! It's so beautiful. I'm really addicted to flat sandals ey, specially in any color with any shade of brown. 😍
Mama or even Papa didn't know about this one. Hihi~ and so, I already saved the other $20 for my study table. Will gonna look for one, maybe by January 03.
**Continuous upvotes here in read.cash.**
Since yesterday, Rusty had been showering my previous articles with lots of loving. Surely that he really wants my articles about goals and achievements. Aside from Rusty The Great, I'm also thankful to my co-content creators and friends for the continuous support in my articles and to me, too. Here's Ate Jane, Ate @Eybyoung, and many more to mention. More so, to my greeny Ate Parotski (@Ruffa) for her oh-so-big upvote in my article, **December Goals: Achieved or Not Yet?**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/december-goals-achieved-or-not-yet-297d8603
*Mahal ko kayoooo! 💓 At sana, mabusog kayo ngayong gabi, bukas, at magpakailanman.* :D
`Now, we're down to the opportunities ...`
**Another scholarship to try my luck at.**
Right after I got home from the city proper (around 12:30PM), I immediately checked my phone and an email had popped up in my notification bar. It was from our Scholarship Coordinator that sent an information about the opening of TES (Tertiary Education Subsidy) Application for Year 2021-2022.
And if you are guessing that I did applied for it, then you guess it right. 😉
Just gave it a try *lang naman*. Who knows? I will be lucky to be one of their grantees, hehe~ :D
In this year 2021, there are numerous opportunities that I had let them passed by without grabbing them even if I can. And, I admit that I regret such moments. But this 2022, one of my resolutions is to grab every opportunities that will gonna pass by in front of me and will knock in my door.
And, this is when and where I want it to start. 💕
That's all for this article, y'all. Actually, this is my second article for today. *Napaka-grinderist ko naman pala today.* 😅
Anyways, this is really what I planned to be my year-end article. So, that blessings and more opportunities will be attracted. Hope you like it! :)
*But before I end this article, lemme first congratulate all of us for making it up this year and surviving all the challenges that we've come up with and was still into it by now. More power for 2022, everyone! Good luck and may all the happiness and success be with us.*
**HAPPY NEW YEAR AND LET US ALL WELCOME 2022 WITH AN OPEN ARMS AND POSITIVITY!**

December Goals: Achieved or Not Yet?
*What's up, fellow content creators and readers? :)*
We are now down to the last day of the month. Meaning, we'll bid our good byes to the year 2021 as we welcome another year in just a matter of less than a day. Are you ready for year 2022? Or hadn't yet over with 2021?
Either of the two, I'm wishing us all to have a more prosperous and blessed year. May all of our goals be achieved and our bucket list be filled with lots of checks. And of course, may this 2022 be the year of higher level of happiness, contentment, blessings, hope, and healing. In addition, be it the year for our much awaited success.
Let's make a move now to make it all happen. Perhaps, let's still claim it, by now and let it manifest! ✨
**Goals, goals, goals ....**
The word that everyone of us has. Yes, all. All of us has this, may it be listed down in our notes or just within our minds. I don't believe that there's a person who doesn't has goals, it's just that some of us aren't that determined to have it all happen for real.
Most of you knows that I am so fond of goals. That why I am calling myself as a "**goal-digger**." Like what I usually said before, my day, week, month, or year won't be completed without me aiming for such a thing. Mostly aren't just for myself growth but also for our family's sake.
On the fourth day of December, I shared the goals that I want to accomplished at the end of the month and you, guys can read it in this article: **December, Let's Go For This Goals!**. Now that we are about to reach the last day of December, lemme share what had happened to that goals that I had listed down. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/december-lets-go-for-this-goals-33e35f12
My goals for this month are divided into two: the goals that I had achieved and those goals that are not yet achieved.
`And so, let's first discuss those achieved goals.`
**For Christmas (December- $1 A Day Challenge).**
Wondering what does this challenge all about? It's the challenge that I had adapted from Ate @leejhen about saving $1 a day in preparation for the upcoming Christmas this year which had already happened last December 25.
I started this challenge by exact first day of the Ber months (September 01) and ended by December 20, 2021. To sum up all the days of saving $1, I had saved for 111 days which there was an estimated $111 savings.
Had I accomplished my initial plan? Of course, yes. It's kinda difficult and confusing but I did it. Yipieee~ for 3 months and 20 days, I managed to save 0.1+ BCH. Hadn't able to tally the exact amount but it was **more than PHP 4000.00**. Just enough to cover up my expenses for the gifts and foods for Christmas and New Year's Eve.
*Me to this challenge:* Until next Holidays! 💚
**Finish all my to-dos in Google Classroom.**
The first semester of Academic Year 2021-2022 had been so tough for me, for us. In this whole semester, we are bombarded and are required to finish and submit hundreds of activities including quizzes and examination from our different subjects this semester.
As per to what I stated in my article for December Goals, I said that I am aiming to finish all of my activities before the end of classes or a day or two after.
And, guess what? I successfully finished all my activities posted in Google Classroom by December 20. Kyaaaah! ❤
But, it's not yet the time to celebrate. Coz there is an individual term paper given by our professor in Agricultural Engineering Lec Class who ghosted us for almost the whole semester. And, just suddenly made an appearance by December 17. Imagine?
It is expected that I, we are gonna complain and throw our rants. But, at the end of the day? We will still do it. *Katawa din hano?* Haha no choice ey. Or else, our grade in this subject will drop like a hot potato. XD
And, finally! The day that I've been waiting for since the semester had started, had finally came. Tadaaaa! All activities are done by December 23. It's so heart-warming to see my to-dos empty and that I can have my vacation *na*. 🌼🧡
**My simple Christmas gift giving.**
This is the exact reason why I did that $1 A Day Challenge, for me to be able to buy gifts for our family, cousins, and for myself.
I started purchasing items when December begun and all are completed by December 23. Though, there are just some changes on the gifts coz I had faced a financial crisis this month due to sudden expenses. In short, I am broke. Then, here's BCH price to add *pa* to my sadness. Huhu~
Nonetheless, I still managed to make it happen. By the night of December 23, my gifts are wrapped and ready to be given by the Christmas.
In this article ( **How I Spent The Christmas 2021?**), I shared how my planned Christmas gift giving had been through. You can read it anytime. :) https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/how-i-spent-the-christmas-2021-6fd32004
**Celebrate the Holidays ... with overflowing happiness and enjoyment.**
This is what all of us had been dreaming of. Not just to have a lot of foods in our table but to celebrate it with happiness, smiles, and enjoyment. Also, feeling so blessed. Despite of the problem that our family had been through this month, we still managed to celebrate His day, happily. Though, it's not like how we spent it when Lola (grandma) was still alive. However, it's still great.
Hoping for our New Year's Eve and New Year to be more great and fun. 💕🤞🏻
`Now, let us proceed to the goals that I hadn't yet achieved ... but will be accomplished on the next days (or maybe, months).`
**Buy a new phone for bro and fully paid Papa's motor.**
As what I shared before, bro's phone had already a lot of techy problems such as laggish, broken screen, full storage, and more. That's why I planned to buy him a new one this month, as my Christmas gift. Aside from this, I also aimed to fully paid Papa's motor that is also our family's private service and another source of income.
Where will I get the money for this things? From my scholarship allowance this semester. Apparently, my allowance was delayed to be distributed to us. Also, we faced a challenge this month resulting for us to move out from our previous house. So, yeah. Hadn't yet accomplished this all. But, I will on the next days.
**Start purchasing items for my room self-renovation.**
This one is for the sake of my and my siblings' studies. Our room in our previous house was not that spacious, as in. To the point that we need to remove our foam used during nights for us to have some space to study on the daytime. It's just enough for a single-foam to lay at.
I am planning to do a self-renovation of that room through polishing the walls, paint it, and add some hang-in book shelves. But, it won't happen anymore. Because we already moved out from that house. And so, I will just do it in our new home. Little by little and I will start through having a more bigger and comfortable study table.
`Before I end this article, lemme also share the goals that aren't listed in my goals this month but I had still made it.`
**Earned:**
**0.22+ in read.cash**
I didn't included a goal related to my earning in both read.cash and noise.cash. It's because I am aware that I am gonna be so occupied with the activities lined up in my table. And, I wasn't wrong about it.
By November 27, the Free Tip system in noise.cash had made its comeback. It made us, users to feel like we are in cloud9. But, it affects the way we interact and earn. I don't know why but it goes like that. Though, I understand it *naman.* It just that it made us feel a double pain coz BCH price was still going up and down but not mooning.
Good thing is that here's Rusty to make it all up. Thank you to my ultimate BCH Santa here in read.cash. Despite of being so busy, I had still earned this numbers that I didn't aimed at, in the very first place. Through writing numbers of articles this month, I had successfully had **0.22+ BCH** or equivalent to **$97.13** (as of today's price in the market).
Such a very big blessing in times of needing ey. <3
**Published articles in read.cash**
This month, I didn't aim to publish a certain number of articles like in the previous months. But then, tadaaa! I still had pushed myself to publish 13 articles (including this one).
And, here they are:
December 01, 2021: **November, At Its Best!** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/november-at-its-best-4c57a304

From the 12 out of 13 articles, I had earned **$96.15**. So unexpected to have this all, but where they are? 70% are spent for the rent of our first month in our new home. Then, some are being hodl in my crypto-wallet. Looking forward for some BCH to be added in my BCH wallet. 💓
**Moved out from an unhealthy environment.**
This December 21, we had moved out from the house that we grown at. Kinda difficult but it's so worth it. Coz we finally had leaved that unhealthy environment and those toxic so-called relatives. Haaa! Feels so great.
To know up other details about this, you can read this following articles: **We're Gonna Move Out** and **We Had Finally Moved Out**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/were-gonna-move-out-25b9a841 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/we-had-finally-moved-out-2cca9fa4

Perks Of Being A Scholar: It Enables Me To?
`Disclaimer: This article doesn't intend to brag. Rather, to share my experiences and things about being a scholar.`
I had mentioned so many times that I am of one the many struggling students here who are trying their luck to make a living and support their own studies and expenses. But for the sake of my new readers, I will repeat it again ..
*"Hi! I am* ***iamanagrcltrst*** *(pronounced as "****I'm an Agriculturist****"). A third year college student, currently taking my bachelor's degree with a course of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture, major in Crop Protection and specializing in Plant Pathology."*
**College ..**
We all know that this level of education isn't easy to take. And, it will never be. No matter what degree course we are taking, be it a Bachelor of Science or Arts or Law or anything, it will always gonna be difficult. Perhaps, it's getting a bit easier when we love what we are doing. Do you agree? :)
In college, being a genius or intelligent isn't enough. Why? Coz in college, it was raining with expenses. Unending expenses that will always surprise us. Students are divided into two: the privileged and unprivileged ones. Privilege students are those that has parents or anyone that can support their studies, at all cost and time. While there are students who still needs to work or wait for their parents to have extra money for them to be able to pay for expenses. And, that's the reality.
Good thing is that we, students can hold on to something that might possibly help upon our expenses and contribute for us to finish our studies. What is it? None other than .... **scholarships**.
Does it ring a bell? Of course, it is. There are so many scholarship programs out there that students like me can apply at. It can either be a public scholarship or a private one. **Public scholarship programs** are run by any agency or sector of the government like CHED (Commission of Higher Education), LGUs (Local Government Unit), DA, and many more. Meanwhile, **private scholarship programs** are funded by private companies out there.
In Ate @Eirolfeam2's published article yesterday, she shared some of **The Perk of Being an Academic Scholar**. Now, let me share how scholarships helped me upon my studies and also, our family. https://read.cash/@Eirolfeam2/the-perk-of-being-an-academic-scholar-67e286db
Above, I shared the different scholarship programs such as the public and private SP. In my case, I have both. Sshhh! The office might hear me out, haha~
Yah know, in college, we shouldn't just hold on to a single scholarship especially if we know that there can be some delays in allowance (StiPend) distribution or our grades might be at stake that can affect our scholarship. So, yeah. Grab scholarships as many as we can, kidding! That's bad uy, haha~ give way to others *pa din dapat.*
As of now, I have **4 scholarships** being taken care of. Am I greedy to have this scholarships or I am just resourceful? Oh, I don't know either. And, all of this four aren't stable coz all has a "**maintaining grades**." Meaning, I can lose them when I don't reached the maintaining grade that they are regulating. Do also note that it's not easy to have this numbers of scholarships ah, it has a bigger responsibilities *na*.
I have a scholarship from a private company (a famous clothing line in our country), two from LGU, and another one from our university (Academic Scholar).
To sum up all the allowances that I've got? It was estimated at **PHP 105,200.00** or equivalent to **2,058.31 USD** for five semesters, including the Midterm Summer Class this year, ever since I was in first year, first semester.
If I don't just need to spend a lot of money to fulfill our needs, there's a big possibility that I am still having those money. But, nah. So, where does those money goes?
From my first allowance from my scholarship (way back October 2019) at the private company, I bought a secondhand (but just a month old from the first owner, almost brand new *pa*) HP laptop for **PHP 13,000.00** or **254.79 USD**. Then, an old model of Cherry Mobile phone (Flare J2 Max) coz my phone that time had broken a month ago. The remaining money are spent for our needs at home and my daily allowance.
How about the next allowances? Those are spent for our needs at home such as the groceries and other stuffs at home. Also for my and my sibs' school needs and I already paid about 10-13 months for Papa's motor (from June 2020 to this 2021). Though, it's not continuous *naman* coz there are some delays *nga*.
And, by now? I am waiting for my allowances for this first semester of AY 2021-2022. Actually, all of them are already delayed. But, I can understand and wait *naman*.
What do I feel for being a scholar?
*Being a scholar had intensified my determination even more to keep going and strive more. And, I feel so blessed and glad for having this scholarships especially now that our parents can't support my studies like how they used to before. So, I will treasure and secure them all coz they also serves as a way for me to finish what I had started.*
`For the students here that are also a scholar, salute to us and good luck! ❤`
`And for those who knows me in person, you can message me about scholarships and let's see how can I help you. :)`
So, that's all for this article. Hope you enjoyed reading my article and had added to your inspiration to pursue college despite of many challenges and hindrances.
FIGHTING, STUDENTS! 💕

We Had Finally Moved Out
**Hello there, fellas! :) Your Future Agriculturist is backkkk. :D**
For today's article, I'll just share some of the things that we had done in relation to this sudden decision that our family had come up days ago. Actually, it was already in my drafts for almost a week *na* but I'm just doing the write-ups at this very moment.
Okay, enough with the introduction. Let's go to the topic to be discussed and shared ...
Last December 18, I shared that **We're Gonna Move Out** from our house. It's a sudden decision, actually, that we just came up by the night of December 17. I also shared the reason why we'll gonna move out in that attached link. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/were-gonna-move-out-25b9a841
To tell you, guys, honestly? It's not an easy decision nor an easy thing to do. Moving out means another and additional expenses to carry upon our shoulders. Also, we've been spending our whole life living in our own house and then in just a snap of fingers? We'll rent a boarding house. Imagine the adjustments that we need to do? I just can't stop to think of so many why's.
*Why does their brother need to be like that? Why need to be so greedy of a little piece of land?*
To think of that that place was so chaotic and the people in there are so toxic. Also, the owner of the land was already deceased and had no family at all and that there's no last will and testaments. The government can take it especially when the tax was not being payed of. Which I am sure that it's not.
If I were in their shoes to have tons of money? I will buy a lot located way far from that place. Oh, I hope that I have those wealth so that we can totally leave this place. :)
So like what I've stated in my article about moving out, on the morning of December 18, we immediately looked for a place to rent coz we can't still afford to buy own own lot and build our own house by now. And, guess what? We had found one just near our previous house. The monthly rent is **PHP 1800.00** or equivalent to **36 USD**.
**On that very same day** (afternoon), Papa and bro immediately go there to start the clean-ups. By the next day (**Sunday, December 19**), we started moving out some of our stuffs. Starting from the things in our rooms such as the drawers, cabinets, books and other school stuffs.
**December 20 (Monday)**, Papa was out to attend his work. And so, we just moved out lighter things like our clothes and several kitchen stuffs. As per told before, I mentioned that we're aiming to totally moved out before Christmas arrived. Maybe, by December 23. Apparently, Mama's brother was wasted on the same night again. And, he's blabbering so many bad words towards his siblings. Saying that, **"lumayas na kayo kung lalayas kayo. 'Di 'yang pinapatagal n'yo pa."** The thought in here is that he wants us to leave the house, immediately and that we shouldn't prolong it. I also hear him say this exact words, **"may mga pera lang kasi kayo."** (*Cc: You just have the money.*) I mean, what's wrong if we'll use our savings just to leave that unhealthy place together with him and their toxic Aunts? We worked hard for that *naman* and also if he just act rightfully, we won't do it anyways.
Mama's heart was beating so fast that night, again. Making me and Papa worried. And so, on the next day (Tuesday, December 21), we woke up more earlier and started moving out or remaining things in there and transfer it to our new house. In short, it didn't go to the date that we had planned.
Here are the the things that we had moved out, some are already settled inside our rooms and the other things are in the kitchen. The photo shown above is the living room. Next stop? Fix and arrange all our things.
Tadaaaa! We're almost done in arranging our things. Actually, I and Papa was the only two that are just doing the arrangements. Bro along with Mama and sis was still in the house to settle and check the other things that we left there.
And, finally! On that day of December 21, we had moved out. Yipee! ❣❤
We hadn't finished arranging all our things that day, as well as some of the parts in the kitchen that needs some repairing and we will just continue it, the next day. What's important is that we had finally leave that place.
Sleeping in to a new environment or house will lead us to this what we called in the Philippines, "*mamamahay* or *namamahay*" or simply, the difficulty of sleeping in other place. But, will you believe me that we hadn't? In fact, we sleep so peacefully and so relaxed. Maybe, this is what we got for moving out. That night, I started to love this new house and I will do everything for us not to go back in that hell-like place.
Now, let's have a quick tour to our new house ...
Or maybe I should start calling it, "**our new home**"? What d'yah think? :)
*This boarding house has only one room, a living room, kitchen, comfort room and at the same time is bathroom.*
There is just one room here but was big enough to accommodate me and my two younger siblings. What we did is that we just put our drawers in the middle part to serve as a division for me together with sis and for my brother. *Para may privacy pa din kami.*
And, here is my and sis' part. Coz we don't have a bed, we just lay the foam in the floor.
What I love in our room is that we now have a more wider place to study.
Though, we don't have a more bigger study table *pa.* But, it's already in the list of things that I will buy once I got my scholarship allowance for this semester. My budget for the study table is around PHP 500-1,000 pesos or $10-20.
***Me be like:*** *I'm also accepting some help. My BCH wallet is always open. Kidding, haha~*
Then, it'll also be my working area as a content creator and a future businesswoman. Yah know, planning to establish a business this 2022. Hopefully~ <3
On the next picture is our living room. This is also where Papa and Mama, along with our cutie cousin, was sleeping during nights. It's wide too so it's still manageable.
And, tadaaa! Here's a lil part of our kitchen. Some parts are under repairing *pa*, so I don't have photos here yet. So satisfying to see our racks full of foodies ey. 😍
So, that's all for this article. As of now, it's our 7th day of staying in here and our 8th night to sleep at. And, believe me when I say that, **"I LOVE IT HEREEEE!"** 💙
Leaving this words before I end this article ...
"Yes to peace of mind and no to toxic surroundings ..."
-imanagrcltrst, 2021.
May we had this all by 2022. Manifesting! ✨

How I Spent The Christmas 2021?
**Ohaaaayoo, chingus! I'm backkkkk. :D**
Okay, so what should I write for today? Should I write a topic related to the Thai Drama that I am watching now? Or should I go with the trending topic here in noise.cash which is about Christmas? Actually, I don't even know. Hahaha~ I'm having a lot of topics in my mind but my system was being eaten up by my lazy cells. XD
So to help me upon deciding, I just took some refreshments first and tadaaaa! Here I am now, composing this article that I started by 5:19PM.
And, what is it all about? The title speaks by itself already. 😉 Hope you're not yet feeling too much about this topic coz I know that most of the articles being published this month is about Christmas.
Now, let's get to the main talk in 3, 2, 1 ....
Last December 23, we had a **Virtual Christmas Party At Crop Protection Department** organized by the students' organization of Crop Protection Majors together with the faculty staffs. Then, by the next day (December 24) I got busy upon **Preparing For Christmas 2021**. In this article, I shared how I planned and prepare for the Christmas this year. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/virtual-christmas-party-at-crop-protection-department-f134d5e8 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/preparing-for-christmas-2021-bbe483f7
But, it's not our topic for this article. This time, I will share how I spent this CHRISTmas ... 💚💓
By the afternoon of December 23, I pushed myself to finish my last pending activity which is the term paper in Agricultural Engineering. And yeah, I managed to make it happen. Finally, I became ACADEMIC FREE on that day. Can take a breather from the previous intoxicating semester.
On the next day (December 24), I woke up more earlier. As I finished catching up in noise.cash, I get up and started the chores. After that, I go to Tita's house coz we will prepare for the foods to be served at the Christmas Eve. Like what I said, I voluntarily presented to shoulder the expenses for buko salad and crema de fruta.
After preparing, I just had some rest and we (I and sis) go home by past 2:00PM. Only to see Mama and Papa having a small argument coz Papa was a bit drunk as Tita's husband asked him to have a drink. I was also pissed coz I'm not fond of hearing arguments ey, my ears get irritated so easily. And so, I just decided to locked myself up in our room and just go out when it's time to prepare for other dishes.
**Fast forward ... ⏩**
*"It's getting near to twelve in the midnight, Christmas will be welcomed and so does He. <3"*
****Now, let's proceed on how I, we spent this Christmas 2021 ..****
We welcomed the Christmas in Tita's house with some classic and traditional Christmas foodies. Spaghetti, Filipino cream soup (sopas), buko salad, crema de fruta, barbeques, and some drinks.
Apparently, its just that the Christmas this year was so different from what we had last year, 2020. Here's the differences ..
***Last year****, Lola was still alive and celebrated the Christmas with us.* ***This year****, she's not present anymore.*
***Last 2020****, we are completed.* ***This 2021****, we are not.*
***Before****, we're all in good terms.* ***Now****, not anymore. Mama and her sister moved out from their family house making us to celebrate it untogether.*
Also, Papa was not with us as we welcomed the Christmas. Coz according to him, he was pissed with Mama. His pride was so high that we can't understand it sometimes.
I can't also help but to say that the spirit of this occasion weren't like before anymore, seems like Lola had bring it with her. In this, I realized and agreed to a post that I saw in Facebook before.
Okay, enough with the drama. After we ate a bit in Tita's house, we headed home again. Then of course, we get some foods with us and I made sure that there's a tub of crema de fruta. Hehe~ as we got home, I ate some crema again. Yah know, crema de fruta is life when its Christmas and even, New Year. :D
When I felt that all the foods that I've ingested are all down and that my tummy isn't feeling heavy anymore, I go to bed *na* and just spent some minutes of using my phone. Greeting my friends, other close relatives, and my co-creators in noise.cash and read.cash. I even sent a "Merry Christmas" greeting to my ex-crushie (*ex daw pero china-chat pa din. Ano 'yornnn?* 🙄). We had a different religion, I am a Catholic and he's a Born Again. So meaning, they don't celebrate Christmas like how Catholics celebrates it. Correct me, guys if I'm wrong, that's just based on my observation eh. :)
**Fast forward again .... ⏩**
Morning of December 25 came and I woke up a bit late. I was welcomed by the greetings from our parents and good thing, Mama and Papa was all good. Though, I'm sure that it's Mama who made *suyo-suyo* to Papa.
My brother was not at home when I woke up coz according to Mama, he leave the house early and was now with his friends. Then, it didn't took that long when sis wokes up. She immediately prepared herself coz she and her friend will roam around, *mamamasko*.
Minutes had passed and I'm all alone in the house, Mama go along with Tita to go to her in-laws. While sis and bro was outside and Papa had to drive someone to the cemetery. I did some cleanings and get back at the bed after and spent most of my time in there.
**How about the gifts?**
Here are all the gifts that I bought and wrapped days before the Christmas had arrived:
I first gave my gifts to Mama and Papa and to my cutie little cousins.
Mama said that they should just open my gifts once she got home and coz Papa was drunk again, she opened it alone. And, I was so touched with her reaction.
*"Hala! Ang ganda naman nito, anak!"*
*"Tingnan mo, Zav (our 1-year old cousin). May bagong sandals si Mama!"*
*"Thank you, anak!"*
I was at our room when she checked what's my gift. But, I can see her over the curtains. I was teary eyed with her words, coz she really appreciated my gift. Both of us was so fond of slippers and sandals ey. Love you, Mama!
Next? It's bro who opened his gifts after he headed at home by quarter to 2:00PM. He was with his friend and I can hear his happy voice as he seems to be proud of what he received. He's not vocal so I already know that we won't say "thank you" but his smiles to me are all enough.
On the other hand, sis was also sooo happy with the clothes she received from me. I gave her a shirt that was actually a twinny and three other fashionable hanging shirts and crop tops. How she show her gratitude to me? She kissed me on the cheek and said, "**thank you, Ate!**"
*My siblings are indeed a pain in the a$s but they are all sweet. 🧡*
Aside from them, I also given some gifts to my younger cousins. The 4, 2, and 1-year old are so happy. Especially, Zoey. She was insisting to open the gifts immediately but her Mom said she should open it later.
I asked Mama if she already opened her gift and she said yes. And, she was so happy *daw* with the coloring books and learning stuffs that I had given.
**So, what about me?**
Because I am already too old for that *pamamasko*, I just stayed at home and wait for someone to give me some gifts. Apparently, there's none. Then, there's the Mom of one of my godmother that messaged me and said, "*the gift from your Ninang is in our house*." She's an OFW *kasi* and so I just said that I'll get it this afternoon. And, tadaaa! I got PHP 300.00 ($6) from her. ❣
Hadn't taken a photo of the PHP 300 coz we immediately spent it for merienda, hehe~
I may not received a lot of gifts or money, I am still satisfied and happy with this Holiday. How's my alone time goes?
I had spent quality time for myself, regain the sleepless nights that I've been through this past few days (weeks or months, rather. Haha!). And of course, eat and eat and eat. Hihi~
How about you? How did you spent your Christmas? I bet that you had received some gifts to, whether it be expected or unexpected ones. 🎁🎄
That's all for this article. Hoping that you enjoyed reading this one.
Christmas is over here in the Philippines, but the spirit was still here. Apparently, countries have different time frame. So, lemme still drop my greetings for those people from other countries who are just celebrating the Christmas today ...
"MERRY CHRISTMAS AND MAY WE ALL HAVE A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!" 🎄🎇

Preparing For Christmas 2021
In just less than an hour ...
Christmas will be celebrated. No more countdowns and we will rejoice as He arrives.
As I've said in my previous article, Philippines is known for having the longest Christmas season. When we turned the page of our calendars to the month of September, expect that Filipinos will start the preparations for Christmas.
Colorful Christmas lights will be hang in front of our houses, fascinating the by-passers.
Extravagant and simple Christmas trees with beautiful decorations will dominate and lighten up the mood in our homes.
Aside from this?
The givers and receivers' cells and tissues are getting sooo excited .. for what?
None other than for .... **gifts**! 🎁
**Givers** such as the family members, our friends, the godparents out there are thinking on what to give to their love ones.
But, the most excited are those to receive such gifts. The **receivers** ..
As I was scrolling down my subscription and explore tabs in noise.cash and reading published articles here in read.cash, I am aware that many of us here are givers. Though, we can also be the receiver, as well.
As Ber months comes in, budgeting will immediately popped up to their, our minds. Along with listing the gifts that we want to give, purchasing them, and wrapping them, as well.
That's how we commonly prepare for Christmas. How about me? Here's how I plan our Christmas ... ⛄
My initial plan is to have a simple and small gift giving to our family and to my cousins. It'll be the first time that I'll give lots of gifts. What's my reason? I'm already earning and I wanna share it, even with my simple gestures. So, how will I save some penny for the gifts?
Actually, my plan is to wait for my scholarship allowance and I'll save some portions for purchasing items. However, I saw this certain post in noise.cash about saving $1 for Christmas. Hello, Ate @leejhen. 💛 So, I adapted it and pushed myself to save.
I shared here so many times about this challenge that I am into as the Ber months begins. This is the "**For Christmas- $1 A Day Challenge**."
By September, I saved **0.048+ BCH**. Followed by **0.051+ BCH** in October and **0.04+ BCH** last November. Overall, I've got **0.1+ BCH** from saving since September 01 to November 30. As I can remember, the equivalent value of 0.01+ BCH in Philippine currency (PHP) is more than **PHP 4,000.00**. Undeniably big compare to what I'm expecting. BCH was mooning that time ey.
So, savings are done. What's next? None other than, purchasing items. All of the items that I will give to our family is from Shopee.
It's not easy to find such items in an online stores coz there can be some defects once we received it or the sizes and color may not like what we are expecting. But, I took risk. The progress of my gift giving was shared here: Added To Cart.
Fast forward .... ⏩
And, tadaaaa! We're now down to December. This month, I've faced so many financial crisis. I became broke for so many times. Trying my best to help upon providing the needs of our family and my needs, as well.
Then, here's the time that we need to move out from the house where we grew up. And, this means additional expenses to think of and shoulder. But, I don't want that my plans will just be a mere drawing. I don't want it to be just a plan, I want it to happen. And, so I pushed it despite of how tight I am financially.
And, here's what I've got ...
Last **December 22**, I bought the ingredients needed for buko salad and crema de fruta. I allocate a budget of PHP 1,000.00 ($20) and my budgeting skills doesn't got rusty ah. I just spent about PHP 800.00. *May pa-sobra pa, hehe~*
Then by the night of **December 23**, I started wrapping the gifts.
I was so tired that day, but I want to grab the opportunity to wrap them all coz I was all alone in our room. I started right after I finished writing my article for last day, around 9:30 maybe. Then, I just finished around quarter to twelve o'clock midnight. Haha~ took so long ey.
Apparently, the gift wrappers that I bought wasn't enough for all the items that I should wrap. 6/12 was just wrapped. Hehe~ I should've just bought more.
And since that I am a lil bit broke, my initial plans gone wrong. Hadn't bought all the items in my list but I made sure to have some presents for my parents, myself, and my two younger siblings. And, also to my seven younger cousins.
Okay, enough with the gifts. Let's proceed to the foods now to be served at the Christmas Eve.
Like I had said earlier, I volunteered to have the buko salad and crema de fruta. By 9:30AM, this morning of December 24, I and sis go to Tita's house to prepare it all. They have a refrigerator and a fridge, so yeah. And, here they are after almost two hours of preparation.
Ahhhh! So excited to get a taste of this crema de fruta. I'm already salivating, hihi! 🤤
How about you? How did you prepare for the 2021 Christmas? Mind sharing it here? :)
That's all for today, y'all! I will end this article here but before that, let me greet us with an unending ....
MERRY CHRISTMAS & ADVANCE HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎄🎉
Let's all enjoy this day, fellas! :) Remember that Christmas isn't just about giving expensive gifts nor a big amount of money. It's about how we make each other feel blessed and joyful and as we spread the real and genuine spirit of Christmas. And, Him!
Again, **Merry Christmas to us! 🌟**
Also, lemme greet the noise.cash and all the noisers out there with ...
HAPPY FIRST ANNIVERSARY! 🎂
Cheers to more years with you, noise.cash! 🥂 Thank you for all the opportunities you opened for us. As well as to all the blessings you've been sharing to all of us. <3

Virtual Christmas Party At Crop Protection Department
Philippines is known to have the longest celebration of Christmas. Perhaps, Christmas season. When the first month of what we called **'Ber months'** arrived which is technically **September**, Filipinos are now starting to feel the breeze and the spirit of Christmas. Then, it will take to the next month of October and followed by November and finally, December.
In an article of CBC KIDS entitled with **4 Months of Christmas in the Philippines**, it was stated that PH always starts to celebrate Christmas three months earlier and starts greeting one another through saying, "**Merry Christmas!**" In that, the country being mentioned (our country) had earned the title of "**The Longest Christmas Season in the World**." ❤❣
During this Ber months, Filipinos always make sure to be well-prepared before Christmas came. Putting up some colorful Christmas lights and decorating the house with Christmas balls and all the stuffs for this much awaited Holiday of the year. Of course, Christmas trees won't missed the opportunity to shine bright like a diamond. Hihi~ though, we don't have one coz our house wasn't that spacious for us to have even a small Christmas tree.
Aside from feeling the cold breeze of Hanging Amihan (Northeast monsoon), Christmas songs were also dominating our ears. Which we like, no matter how we get along to hear it so much. Of course, parties are now being planned. D'yah know any parties being held during the Ber months? Well, its none other than **Christmas parties**.
During the pre-pandemic days, Christmas parties are held in a face-to-face mode. Do you still remember how we assigned one another to bring a certain dish? Oh, I won't forget about it. :) How about the '**exchange gifts**'? Of course, this one too is surely unforgettable. I mean, who wouldn't forget the moment when our Monito or Monita gave as a handkerchief, picture frame, or mug? The most famous gifts of all time, :D.
*Storytelling*
When I was in Kindergarten to Grade 2, junk foods are also one of the gifts being given in exchange gifts during Christmas. Junk foods like moby, oishi, pillows, name it. Those times, we are already happy with those things. But, nowadays? I don't think so. 😅
Yesterday (December 22), I got a message from our college organization that our department (Crop Protection) will gonna have a virtual Christmas party by December 23, around 10:00AM to 12:00NN via Google Meet. It will be for third and fourth year students along with the department Instructors, Professors, Chairwoman, and our College Dean who is also from our department, specifically the former Chairman of CP Department.
Fast forward ....
December 23 came. And, it's the day of our **Virtual Christmas Party** ....
Actually, I am almost 30 minutes late to join the party. I was so occupied that I forgotten to check the time, my ex-crushie (ex? Hehez~) just messaged me asking if I already joined in there.
The program was headed by our organization's (Pest Management Society) President, Kuya King and our business manager, Ate Jhamin.
After the opening prayer from our College Dean, they immediately proceeded to the games that they prepared. Here they are:
**Game 1: Raffle**
**Game 2: Name the song**
**Game 3: Kung ang ...**
The games are headed by one of the instructors in Entomology specialization. Now, let's proceed to the games.
**Game 1. Raffle**
This is the event that I had seen when I joined the meeting. Aside from the chikahan, we are also waiting for the winners of the raffles. Our Dept. Head said what we'll have for the raffle. This are:
**5 winners of consolation price of PHP 150.00 ($3).**
**2 winners of consolation price of PHP 200.00 ($4)**
**2 winners of grand price, PHP 500.00 ($10)**
This was sponsored by the former students who specialized in Plant Pathology that also passed the Agriculturist Licensure Examination last November 2021. They used the Wheel of Names to determine who are the winners. All of the students and department stuffs are included on the rollet and if the student isn't present on the meeting, he/she is automatically removed from the rollet.
In here, the winners for PHP 150.00 was first to know. It took a lot of spins before the 5 winners are known. *Daming absent ey,* haha. And, of course. I am not included in the winners. We don't have the luck for such raffles. 🤣
After that, we proceeded to the **Game 2** which is the "**Name The Song**." The song choices are for Christmas and they are really a keyboard warriors, they typed so fast ey. Haha! There are 5 song titles to guess and there will be a cash price too. I just don't know how much, hehe~
When Game 2 was all done, time to spin the rollet again for the winners of PHP 200.00 and again, I'm not included. Huhuhu! The truth is that my name was just a display in there. 🤪
Now, time for **Game 3, Kung Ang ....**
This game was for those who's witty, not the typical witty. We just need to make our minds fast to think. It has four different questions and this are ...
**Question 1.** *Kung ang BOTTLE ay BOTE, ano naman ang BOTTLEGOURD?*
**Question 2.** *Kung ang BLACK ay ITIM, ano naman ang BLACKPINK?*
**Question 3.** *Kung ang HORSE ay KABAYO, ano naman ang REDHORSE?*
Our Professors and Instructors, same as with our Dean was all laughing with the answers for Question 3. In just a second, the chat box was bombarded with the word "*alak* or *beer.*" Some do answers brand name just to be different from the other answers, haha. *Mga halatang manginginom daw eh. 😹*
Now, it's time to know who's the lucky winners of PHP 500. 00 or 5 USD. Who's the lucky two *kaya*? Do you think I am one of those two winners? Hmm, you guess. :D
*The funny thing in here is that the participants suddenly increase, maybe there are some who informed those absents about the raffle, hahaha.*
So after so many spins ..... the winners are announced. The other one is from fourth year and the last is from our year level which is also one of my friends. But, do you think that's just that?
The Professors and Instructors who was spotted in the spins will sponsor PHP 1,000.00 ($20) for their so-called **Great Grand Price**. Named on the spot by our Head, haha. *Actually, puro kautuan lang 'tong party namin.* The Doctors and Lic. Agr. seems like they're not professionals as they jammed and bond with us. 💙
I know that I don't have the luck for raffles coz truthfully? I hadn't win in any raffles, even just for once. I know that I am not the only one in here who's unlucky to win a raffle, *taas paa sa mga walang swerte sa raffles jan. 🙈*
Guess who's the luckiest winner? My friend who also wins the other PHP 500.00. Overall, she wins PHP 1,500.00 or $30. *Maki-sana all na lang tayo, hihi~*
Well, I just observed that she's lucky in terms of raffles. There's this one when we attended a webinar organized by UP-Los Banos about Golden Rice in PH, she got one of the legit soil testing kits sponsored by Sen. Kiko Pangilinan. Such a lucky girl she is, hope all.
*Ako na umaasa na mananalo be like:* 🙄😑😓
As the games was all done, we just had some chikahan and laughing moments then participants were leaving the meeting one-by-one. That's all that we've got for our Virtual Christmas Party. Like our President, all of us we're hoping and looking forward for a face-to-face Christmas party next year 2022. Hoping that pandemic is over that time! <3
That's all for today. Hope you enjoy reading my article, thank you for the time you allotted in here. Until next time, stay tuned for the next articles. MERRY CHRISTMAS, read.cash pips! (✿◠‿◠)

We're Gonna Move Out
*Hey yah, guys! :)*
*Here I am again, writing this article wherein I will share something that had been happening to our family this past few days.*
**Extended family ....**
Does it ring a bell? Oh, I know that all of us has the idea on what this words means. However, let me define it still.
**"Extended family ....**
`is one of the type of family that extends beyond the nuclear family (parents and children only). Wherein the said nuclear family was living together with their grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other relatives. Whether they it be nearby or in only one household."`
*Paraphrased meaning from Oxford Dictionary.*
There are many cases that nuclear families that are still living together with their in-laws, first family, relatives, or such even if they are already building or had built their own families. In Filipino, *sama-samang namumuhay ang buong mag-anak or angkan sa isang lugar or sa isang bahay lamang*.
Let me asked you, guys this question: **"Are you also living with your extended families? With your grandparents, uncles and aunts, cousins under the same roof?"**
If yes, "**how's the experience, so far?**" If it's great, then hope all *na lang si self*. If not, then let me say, "**I feel yah.**"
I'm not an envious kind of person but like what mareng @ExpertWritter had said in her previous article, I will also admit that "*I can't also stop myself to feel envious of those people who don't need to worry for their shelters because they already has their own house and lot.*" Because me and our family? We don't have that but that's one of our, my goals. However, it's not yet happening *pa* coz I am still on my way of having such a progress.
Maybe, I shared it here or in the comment sections of my co-content creators articles that we have the conflict with Mama's relatives (specifically, to her maiden aunts) about the land. Yeah, it's already a common reason why families or the clan were having such war due to wealth and properties. In short, *nag-aagawan*. In our case, we don't care if there will be no piece or part to be given to us because we don't plan to stay *naman* here all our life. We'll leave once we got the chance, when we became successful *na.*
Apparently, Mama's so-called relatives can't wait for us to leave this place. Causing for them to have fight (through words) and for Mama to cut ties with them. Well, we don't regret cutting ties with them *naman* to think that they're really toxic.
Mama is the second among the four children of our grandparents. Then, here's his younger brother (third child) that has a really bad habit and lifestyle. He's so alcoholic, fond of having debts, a gambler, warfreak (*basagulero*), and dependednt to his siblings, to Mama and Tita.
He has three children with her former live-in partner. Apparently, his children wasn't with him as he can't support them with their needs, especially financially. Now, all of his children was with their grandparents in the city proper. To sum it all up, he was just living with himself for years *na.*
If you were thinking that he's living so independently, no. You're totally wrong, because he is not. His foods? Oh, Tita had been providing for her. I mean, Tita's husband. Do we also provide for him? Yes but not totally. We'll just give her foods but he's not included in our budget. The electricity? He should be giving his shares for the bill but he don't want to.
Giving her foods and other needs was okay with us even though he shoudl be doing that all by himself coz he has the job *naman* ... however, it's not like that. His attitude had been making things go so bad. He's so alcoholic and all that a black sheep of a family can be defined of.
Last month of November, he became more alcoholic. He's often drunk and when he is drunk? He tends to be freak out, *nagwawala*. As in! He will throw words that should not be said on the first place. When he's drunk, he'll make *kulit-kulit* to Mama. Ah *basta, usual na black sheep talaga*. Sometimes, I've been asking myself if it was just an alcoholic drinks that he's been taking or *may iba pa.* You know, his actions are really different to the usual drunk man is.
This past few days (maybe, starting by last Sunday), he often got so wasted. And, as usual is *magwawala na naman s'ya*. Why? One of the many reasons is that because he has an enemy here in our compound, their eldest cousin who is also boastful and had a bad character. But, we are shocked that he started to argue with Mama and Tita this previous days. Maybe, he was being brainwashed by their so-called Aunts.
And, something more worst had happened last night. He shouted and angrily said this exact words, ***"Dahil sa inyo, kaya ganito ang buhay ko."***
He was blaming Mama and Tita for the kind of life that he has. Full of debt, has a broken family, lots of problems, a miserable life. Mama and Tita had been doing a lot of favors for him to the point that he can't say anything *na.* But, why blame them when it should be himself to be only blamed for? He's already 36 years old yet he's still like that. He'll go to work by the morning and will go home, drunk and was often totally wasted. Until he said that he'll move in to their family house, for good and that Tita should move out.
Mama was so angry that night that made her to go to the Barangay Hall and asked for the *tanod* to come to our house to stop him. But, they hadn't did anything to stop him. *Kaya wala din akong bilib sa barangay officials namin* eh. Seriously, *wala talaga*.
So, our family together with Tita and her husband had made a decision. A very big decision which is to just ..... **move out and leave him all alone here.**
Actually, it's already our plan even before. It's not healthy in here *na kasi* but because we still can't afford it, we just make our patience more loooonger and deepen our understanding *pa*. But, we can't do it anymore. *Nakaka-sagad na eh.*
And this morning, we immediately looked for a boarding house here in our community. We can't go in a more far place coz Mama's clients in her *paglalabada* are all here. Good thing is that we had found one just within our street.
It's good for five people (Mama, Papa, me, and my two siblings). Tita had also found one which is just a few house away from us. The one that we had found has a monthly rent of **PHP 1, 800.00** or **36 USD**. Mama and Papa was asking me if we can pay for it *ba* and so me being an optimistic daughter, I said, **"Yes, we can!"**
I'm also asking myself if we can add another bill for us, monthly. But then I just want to be more optimistic and avoid thinking negatively. Mama had been asking me that question for too many times and to calm her down, I said that I'll just shoulder the rent. I know that it's not easy but I am also eager to live this place especially when I started with my thesis *na*. I wanna do it in a more peaceful environment and it's not here. Also, I am afraid that Mama will be sick because of him and that Papa's patience will be *mapatid* and I will not let that to happen. So, we really need to move out *na talaga.* **As soon as possible!**
As of this moment, Papa and bro was starting to do some cleaning in the boarding house. As we are aiming to settle everything before Christmas had arrived. In short, we'll celebrate our Christmas in our new house.
Next year, we'll have another beginning. In our case, it's a literal "**new beginning**" with our new house and changes of life. Maybe the reason is not good but what we'll get in return for leaving this place? It's beyond the word "great" and that's the **peace of mind and more peaceful kind of living**. ❤❣

Tues-Yey Unwinding!
**Hello to all of my co-buddies there! :)**
It's been almost 4 days since I last wrote and published an article here, which is about a virtual meet-up of the noise.cash and read.cash content creators: **Virtual Meet-up: Is It Possible?****.** That was last Monday (December 13th) when I published this one. That's the time that I had a longer free time away from the academic matters that I need to pay attention with. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/virtual-meet-up-is-it-possible-a657b773
Since December had started, I became even more busy. To the point that my rule about '**go-to-bed-at-11PM**' had been not followed by yours truly. I should be at the bed before the clock ticks at eleven o'clock in the evening but because I still have piles of activities to comply and submit before their respective deadlines? I am somehow starting to abuse myself, again. Just like before and I am afraid that it might affect my health because of what I am doing this past few days.
This **Tuesday**, I had a tough day to deal with. That's the day wherein my final exam in Genetics Laboratory Class was scheduled. If you were seeing my posts in noise.cash, maybe you had some ideas how difficult this subject is for me. I've been ranting how inconsiderate our Instructor in that subject is in terms of giving activities and deadlines. And, it's really difficult. I promise!
By the morning of Tuesday, I didn't did any academic-related tasks. All I did are the household chores that I usually do every morning and after that, I babysit our cutie 1-year old girl cousin. She's not hard to take care, so it's definitely fine for me.
When twelve noon had arrived, I prepared our lunch and did some readings. Eaten my lunch after and sat in front of my laptop and phone, waiting for the Google Form to be posted by our Instructor. And, the mind-wrecking moment had finally started by 1:03PM.
I answered my exam for about almost three hours and finished quarter to 4 o'clock. My braincells had been saying, "**ouchie ouch!**" especially when I got to the part of computation. Nonetheless, I still managed to survived and tadaaaa! I got a score of **56/60**. <3
It's such a delightful moment for me. Coz I think, I'll be able to calmed down na in this subject and that I'll have a passing grade. Yah know, *lagapak sa* first and secon term exam ey. HAHAHA! :D Like I can sing, "*London bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down.*" or maybe "*spaghetti'ng pababa, pababa nang pababa.*" 🙈
After I took my final exam, I decided to have my afternoon merienda. It's not a foodie, okay? But, a power nap. I badly need that coz I've been deprived of that for weeks *na*. Apparently, I hadn't had my dream power nap. I just used my phone, doing random things. Thinking how can I treat myself with some loving for too much grinding this past few weeks.
Until Tita told me that we'll go to Milka Krem that night. But, Papa wasn't at home because he's in his sideline. So, I messaged me saying that he should go home right after he got some rest and he said "okay." Before 7:00PM, we leave the house. And, bro was the one guarding our house. He's not fond of going out so yeah. Next time na *lang daw.* Hehe!
For my get-up? I'm wearing the fashion black-colored high-waist shorts and a cream-colored sweater that I bought in the thrifty store. Partnered with my khaki-colored sling bag. Well, shoulder bag at that time. :D
**Our first destination?** **To the .... Milka Krem!**
The Christmas lights and designs are soooo extravagant. So perfect for dating (*wala nga lang akong boyfie, huhu!*) and pictorial. And, that's what we did right away. I captured a lot of photos and videos of the magical views coz I really planned to share it here. Here's some of my shots:
There's a lot of lights, yeah. *Yayamanin*, haha!
I also had videos (mp4 format) that I converted into GIF file but I can't attached them because the file is too big *daw*. So, it'll be all photos that I'mma gonna share.
Thanks, sis for taking photos of meeee! <3 Pak na pak ah, I looked like I'm tall on some of my photos. Hihi!
And of course, the night out will not be completed without having some photos with the fam. Sis was not in the mood for some picture-picture, so technically? She's just taking some pictures of us.
It's a good thing that Papa agreed to take a picture. Camera shy ih, haha!
**This, this is the photos that I really liked. See our smiles? Visible that we're enjoying the moment, right? 💓**
After almost an hour of walking and capturing some views in different angles? We proceeded to the stalls of foods. Yummy-licious foods, I mean. :D But, the prices are so expensive like we're just gonna pay for their products' name and not for the foods themselves. So, we just opted to just buy foods at the city food park where cheaper but delicious foods are everywhere. 😍
**Next stop? ..... Philippine Carabao Center (PCC).**
It's the most popular producer of dairy products in our province, Nueva Ecija. Oh, should I say the whole country? Hmmmm ....
Anyways, we don't need to enter the vicinity of PCC. Oh, we can't *talaga* in the first place coz they're so strict in allowing other people to enter especially when they're breeding water buffalos. Numbers of people can cause stress to them eh. Bck to the business, their Christmas Pailaw was just outside the main gate and along the national road. It's more simpler compare to Milka Krem .....
But, what I love in here? This ...
Then, we saw this couple who are also looking at the man-made *rebulto* of baby Jesus, Mama Mary, Joseph, the three kings, and a camel.
What caught my attention is the cartons that the man was holding at his back. My soft heart had crumpled immediately ... but I was so touched when his wife kissed Jesus' foot for so many times. It was indeed a proof that life status isn't a hindrance to not be devoted to Him.
Though, I was thinking where does those cartons are for? Are they collecting it or will use those as they sleep? My heartttt ... </3
We didn't take too long in PCC unlike for the time that we stayed at Milka Krem. But, it's all worth it. So much!
Also, I got to see how our college entrance looks at night. Been more than two years since I last saw it. Missed yah, College of Agriculture! 💚
**Last stop? .... Munoz Food Park! 🤤**
Well, nothing's new in here place as I've been here for so many time. Nonetheless, it is the place where thrifty clothes, tons of foods and drinks, toys, slippers, name it. They're all here. Just prepare you wallet or pocket coz for sure? You'll be tempted to spend a lot for the foods and all.
Just like what happened to me .... I got budol by the buying 11 sticks of grilled street foods (*ihaw-ihaw*) and 7 pieces fried chicken for our late dinner, and other foodies and drinks. I even bought 4 pieces of hotcakes with lots of cheese at the top, 30 pesos worth of lumpiang Shanghai, special bibingka and goto, and mooooore. Also, some *pasalubong* for bro. To sum it up? I spent almost $10 just for one night. Hehe, opo. *Nabu-budol pa din ako kahit suki na ako nitong lugar na 'to. 😅*
Though, I didn't regret that I spent that amount of money. Why? It's worth it, we enjoyed the moment. We feel so full and we're happy. And, most importantly? **I got the chance to unwind and I feel so relieved after that night gala with the fam.** So, what's the point of having such regrets? Right? :)
I, we really enjoyed this moment. Until next time, fam! Let's go to San Jose *naman,* next time. ❤❣
That's all for today, guys! :) It's kinda late to share this one but it's soooo worth to be shared, so goraaaa.
HOPE YOU LIKE IT! 🧡

Virtual Meet-up: Is It Possible?
All of us in noise.cash and read.cash has this circle of friends that we usually got to talk with, either in the comment sections or in our Telegram group chats. Me? Of course, I also have. Most of them are older than me, so I prefer to call them Ate (big sister) and Kuya (older brother). Then, there's also some who are about my age or a year/s younger than me. Mostly are also Filipino and Filipino living here in the Philippines or working overseas. Then, here's Ate @tired_momma that lives in Northern Ireland (*sana tama pa naaalala ko, haha!*) with her loving husband and cutie kids. Hello, bb Tia! 💛
Regardless of our age, nationalities, and the countries that we're in? We still managed to build a family out of the virtual world. Hoping that it will remain like this even if noise.cash or read.cash had vanished.
Actually, I didn't expect that I'll get along with such known creators here like Ate @Jeaneth, Ate MJ, Ate Yen, Ate Florie, Ate @Ruffa, Ate Haidee (Usagi), even @Macronald, and many mooooore to mention. I was just a mere FC (Feeling close) before. trying to be friends with other users that I can talk to. And, look! I can now have chitchats and *biruan* with them. To the point that we even talked in Facebook na, haha. Then as we get closer to each other, I can't help to imagine that we'll see and talk to each other, for real.
I remembered that Ate @Jane had written series of articles about the virtual and dream getaway of BCHgang, BCH Community, and the Club1BCH fam. If you missed her articles, here they are: **Hello Paris At Last!**, **BCHgang Roaming Around Paris**, **Out Of Paris, Off We Go To Meet The BCH Community**, **Finally! The Real #Club1BCH Reunion**, **#Club1BCH Team -Building/Camping In Berdfordshire France**, and **#Club1BCH Fly To Amsterdam To Meet The Legend**. https://read.cash/@Jane/hello-paris-at-last-1490c946 https://read.cash/@Jane/bchgang-roaming-around-paris-0c7a12d9 https://read.cash/@Jane/out-of-paris-off-we-go-to-meet-the-bch-community-5a2ca23e https://read.cash/@Jane/finally-the-real-club1bch-reunion-2c2f0751 https://read.cash/@Jane/club1bch-team-buildingcamping-in-berdfordshire-france-56fd1a82 https://read.cash/@Jane/club1bch-fly-to-amsterdam-to-meet-the-legend-32cfccd4
`Oh di'baaa? Hinanap ko pa talaga lahat 'yan. Hihi! :D`
In her articles, we had conquered different countries in the continent of Europe. Many noise.cash and read.cash content creators are in. Omoo! We even got the moment to get bond with PVM and Panky. I also got the chance to bond with the fam in London when Ate Jane bumped into Kuya Eunoia who was with us that day ....
Together with the other creators, we visited a lot of extravagant places and get along with each other like we really know each other for a very long time. When in fact, that's the first time that we see each one, personally. It seems like we really are friends in the real world and not just virtually.
But, since we live in different parts of the world and then here's corona virus, we can't. Well, excluded those that lives within just the same place, they can have jamming together. But, as a whole? It's impossible pa. Nonetheless, I saw this random post in one of the Facebook groups that I am in.
In the post, it says that "***sana may Christmas party din tayo, guys via Zoom. *laugh****" (In English, it goes like this: *Hope that we have a Christmas party, too. Even just via Zoom.*) Upon reading this post, an idea popped in my mind.
Since that we can't meet personally due to our distance with each other and amidst the pandemic, **why not just have a virtual meet-up?** As I can track in my mind, I already asked this one to Ate MJ before (don't know if she can still remember it, hehe!). But, she's not sure though because most of us are busy with life and considering the time frame from one country to another one.
Christmas is nearly approaching. In just over 11 days, it will be Christmas na. The most awaited Holiday of the year, wherein the acts of sharing and giving was done effortlessly. Then, I asked those words in the post to myself, **"***how about a Christmas meet-up? A virtual one.*" With the advance technologies emerging more and more this days, it's possible. We got Zoom, Google Meet, and Facebook Messenger rooms *na*. But even I, myself, was asking this certain question, "**Is it really possible?**"
Maybe yes and maybe, no. For sure, we will get more busy that time, doing lots of gatherings with the family, relatives, and friends. But, **what do you think?** Can we have this minutes of talking to each other? Even just for thirty minutes or maximum of one and a half hour?
Or .... nah? Maybe, because we still want to be anonymous or just simply busy.
Nonetheless, I am hoping that one day, we can see, talk, smile, and laugh with each other. **For real! Either it be personally or virtually. 🤗💙**

The Perfect Gift Challenge: It's My Turn
Last December 07, I was out because my laptop was undergoing some craziness. Haha, XD. On the afternoon of that very same day, I already have an idea on what to write next. But, circumstances happened ey.
Then, how about today (December 08)? I was determined to write this topic in my mind but as I've seen so many articles about this writing prompt (more like a challenge) circulating here in read.cash and even in noise.cash. It's the **The Perfect Gift Challenge** of @CoquiCoin. https://read.cash/@CoquiCoin/the-perfect-gift-challenge-53c92110
So, I'mma gonna set aside that topic first and participate here.
**Gifts .....**
Even without the means of giving its meaning based from many dictionaries out there, we already know what does this word means. As well as what is it for and its essence to us.
When can we give gifts? We usually give such gifts during special occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, when we had our victories, especially during special Holidays like Christmas. Name it, we can have it all. However, are we just able to give items to other people during this times? Of course, no. If we can give send gifts during occasions, can we do it most of the time? Like, ***"Nah. I just want to give him/her some presents."***
Personally, I can't track when was the last time that I received some gifts. Maybe that was during the last Christmas party that I attended way back in High School? Ah! I really can't remember. When I graduated in SHS? My previous birthdays? Na-da. As in, none. No one had given me such material things as a gift. We don't usually do this at home ey. And, my friends? Just the same. It's not that I am expecting but I just can't help but to imagine how it feels. Uhoooo! When *kaya?* :D
Neither ways, I seldom receive gifts but it's the other way around. I am the one who's fond of giving gifts. Well, not most of the time but still. I still do this even though I sometimes lack with financial matter. Why? Coz I believe that it feels more greater to given than to receive, which is so true. I've shared so many times in both platforms that I am planning to throw a simple Christmas gift giving in our family. And, yeah! I'm on the process, by now. <3
You can check this articles where I shared my plans and progress: **For Myself: Plans For Holiday Gifts** and **Added To Cart**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/for-myself-plans-for-holiday-gifts-c113abaa https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/added-to-cart-db1f6128
Okay, enough with so much intro. Haha, it's taking too much time na ih. Let's now focus on the main point of the prompt.
I have so many close users in read.cash especially to noise.cash and since that Christmas will arrive soonest, lemme share my imaginative virtual gifts to my Ate and Kuya, younger sibs, and friends here in this two amazing platforms. But since you're so many and can't include all (*as I'm afraid to reach a 30-minutes reading time. LOL!*), I'll just choose some. 💓
Let's begin .... in 3, 2, 1 !
First, here's the gifts that I wanna give two some of my Ate here:
Piano for Ate @Jeaneth
Hello there, Ate! :) Yah know that I am one of the *abangers* of your piano covers, right? Since the day that I first watched your cover, I subscribed on your channel immediately. I'm also fond of playing piano but I don't know how to, hehe. I know that you already have your own piano but I still want to gift one to you. Actually, I am torn between piano or stuffs for your baby Sunny. But, yeah. Let's go for pianoooo! It's costly *pala talaga* but who knows? Maybe, soon. *wink wink*
Skirts for Ate Jane
Hi to my sooooo family-oriented Ate here! And, to a breadwinner like me, too. :) How are you there?
Anyways, I know that you're into something this past few days or maybe until now. And upon thinking on what to give to you? The first thing that popped into my mind is an **airplane*****.*** Yah, airplane. Hehez! So when you want to go home here in the Philippines, there will be a more higher possibility that you can do it anytime. But, it cost an arm and leg. So, *saka na lang.* Will find a man that owns an airline muna, char. XD
So, instead of an airplane? Let's go for skirts. Will you believe me when I say that I already knows your like in terms of skirts? It should be long, flowy, has *kulambo* (net), and light in color. Don't know if I'm right coz it was just based on my observations. 😁
Upon scrolling in Shopee, here's the skirts that catches my attention. Do you like it, Ate? I hope, you are. :)
Angel's Burger for Ate @Ruffa
Okay, let's get down with my ever soooo green Ate. Hihi! I know that you're into blue-eyed man but of course, before I gift them to you, they should be mine first. Kiddingggg! I don't want to be disowned by you, so okay. They're yours na. ** deep sigh then crossed arms**
And, because you were so proud of shouting to the whole noise.cash world that you're a food lover? Especially that yummy footlong? Okay, I'll just franchise an Angel's Burger for you with boxes of junkfoods *pa.*
No other customers to accommodate, it's just for you. ONLY! And, it's for free. Then, Valerian and Knight will prepare your orders. Yieeee, *kilig 'yarn?* 🤪 Also, like what Ate Pachuchay had said in her article, *"You don't have to think of a snack every afternoon."* For sure, happy *'yannnn. :D*
Sari-sari Store for Ate @Pachuchay
Last month, you shared in one of your articles that you're aiming to have your sari-sari store again that was ruined by the Typhoon Yolanda when it hits our country. So, I'll just shoulder the capital for the products you want to sell and then we'll renovate your old store. How does that sounds, Ate? :)
Also, it's one of my goals to offer scholarships to my younger cousins when they reach in college. Not a full scholarship and even not really a scholarship, *basta.* :D Just some assistance. Maybe, I can also pull some strings for your daughter. Who knows? Maybe, I can make it turn into reality. Soon! <3
Box of coffee, coffee maker, and mug Ate @bmjc98
Actually, I don't really know what to give to you, Ate. What's only in my mind is that gaming chair but you have it already eh. I also considered a puppy but Ate Pachuchay will do the same thing *na.* It's not to replace the spot left by Kiara but to somehow help upon lifting up the mood because of her loss.
But, since you're a night person who's fond of working starting by night to dawn or even morning. Tadaaaa! Maybe, this items will be good. I know that you can afford this but yeah.
The coffee maker is portable and so, you can bring it with you while working. So, what do you think. Ate? :)
Binders and journals for Mareng @CrazyRichFilipina
Hola to my Archi friend here! How are you doing? I miss having a loooong chikahan with you in noise.cash. But, we're both busy with our respective academic responsibilities ih. So, will wait for our vacay *na lang*.
Anyways, I have so many things in mind that I wanna give to you. Like architectural stuffs, laptop, and yah. Binders and journal stuffs. But, I'm not that familiar with the things that you used in your course, so *ekis na*. Then, I am aware of how much you want to have your own laptop. Remember the time that you want to buy *na* but BCH price dump few hours after we talked? Then, it happened again. So, plans gone wrong it is. Apparently, I can't afford that.
(**Me to myself:** Wow! Can't afford a laptop but can franchise an Angel's Burger? Are you joking? HAHAHA!)
So, last option? Binders and journals. You're so fond of this things ey. So, I am sure that your eyes will go heart-heart when you got this things. Well, am I right? :)
Sling bags for Mareng @ExpertWritter
I remember that there's an article where you shared that you're starting to get fond of sling bags and that you don't want those sling bags with chains coz they easily get rusted. Well, that's true. That's what exactly happened to those sling bags that I last bought ey. So, no no to chains *na si ako sa susunod. 😁* And, in that? I know that we have the same interest now. Hihi! So, lemme grant it, mamshhh! Okay, just imagine it *na lang*. Hehe!
And, here's some of what I saw in Shopee. Can't afford those authentic bags *pa,* so *kay* Shopee *na lang muna. XD*
This are the sling bags in my cart that I'm planning to purchase. And maybe, you'll like it too, mareee! <3
Oooops! This are just a virtual gifts, okiee? *Saka na 'yung tunay talaga*, hihi.
And, that's it for today. I just really tried to participate in the writing challenge, ****#ThePerfectGiftChallenge2021********.**** Then, tadaaaa! Here's my entry for @CoquiCoin's writing prompt about **Gifts**. https://read.cash/search?q=%23ThePerfectGiftChallenge2021

Good evening, everyoneee! :) Just dropped by to say my "thank you" to Ate @MizLhaine for renewing her sponsorship. LABLAB! 💛
Hello, Club1BCH!
In this world of crypto-blogging, we don't just aim to be good (or even way more than being good) in writing and be an inspiring content creators. Another reason? Is **to hodl and accumulate more BCH (Bitcoin Cash)**. Specifically, that 1 BCH, 2 BCH, and mooore. Am I right? Don't say no, 'coz I won't believe you. Kidding, XD.
**Club1BCH .....**
Does it ring a bell? Does it sound so familiar? Yes, of course. Who wouldn't know this club? The club that most of us wants to be a member. Well, including me. At my first months here, I am not that aware of what Club1BCH is. I even asked myself, what kind of club is that? And, what is it for? What's in that club? Yes, I'm indeed interested and curious on what's going in there but I admit that I ain't that much interested before but gaddddd! After I read numbers of articles featuring this said virtual club? I can't help but to also dream to be one of them, one of the members of that club. Actually, it is one of my goals here. :D
But, what is Club1BCH?
Here's how Ate Eybyoung define Club1BCH ....
**"Club1BCH is a virtual club that aims to hold at least 1 BCH or more, this is to inspire and motivate others to hold and invest in Bitcoin Cash."**
In addition to this, Club1BCH is a virtual club founded by Sir PVMihalache and co-founded by Ate Eybyoung by January 13th, 2021.
One of my questions before is, is it required to have 1 BCH or so before we became a member of this club? I remembered what Ate Mary Jane (bmjc98) said to her past comment in noise.cash with this thought (Ps. I forgotten the exact words ey) ....
**"It's not required to have 1 BCH, it's already enough that we've hodling BCH in our crypto-wallet."**
But, is that all? Maybe some noise.cash and read.cash users and BCH HODLers do asked this, *"We all have BCH in our e-wallets. Are we already in?"*
Before, there's still an application going before we became an official member. There's a form to fill out and the members will assess it after. Apparently, it's not just like we'll submit a form and viola, we'll gonna be a member next. Nope, it's not. As far as I remember, the official members will first assess if there's an available slot to fill in and will decide as one. (Well, correct me if I am wrong. Hehe!)
To understand it more clearly, here's what Ate Eybyoung had said ...
"**Do we need to hold 1BCH to be part of the club?**
Not really, you only have to be a BCH lover, supporter and of course, you should also have the same goal with us which is to hold and accumulate it. The amount doesn't matter."
To find out more, there are a lot of published articles generally to discuss thing and facts about this. However, here's some of articles written by Ate @bmjc98 (**Everything You Need To Know About Club1BCH**) and Ate @Eybyoung (**#Club1BCH FAQ's!**). More so, this article of PVM about how Club1BCH had started: ****Club1BCH - The Genesis****. https://read.cash/@bmjc98/everything-you-need-to-know-about-club1bch-7647d7fb https://read.cash/@Eybyoung/club1bch-faqs-beee1593 https://read.cash/@PVMihalache/club1bch-the-genesis-8eb94a85
Now, let's get back on the topic. As you can see, my title had says it all.
It's been months of waiting to be one of the members of **Club1BCH**. I do admit that I often forget to apply for the club because of my hectic schedules and piled up activities in academics. In those months, all I thought is that the only way to be in is to apply. But then, Ate MJ had enlightened me when I asked if I can apply *na.*
She said in her reply that there's no need to apply, anymore. They will just recommend someone to the other members and if the majority had agreed, you're immediately in. And, she said that she'll recommend me and so I just decided to wait.
And, tadaaaa! Just yesterday, Ate Jane asked for my Telegram account and told me to send a direct message to her at TG. And so, I did. Then last night, she replied and said that she'll add me in the club.
Who I am to say no, right? Of course, I will grab that opportunity to say "yes, I do." Char, haha.
Then, look. After some seconds, tadaaa! By 12.04.21, **I'M ALREADY INNNNNN! 😍💛**
When I saw that group's name in my TG inbox, I can't help but to shrieked in so much *kilig*. But I need to stop myself because everyone in the house was already asleep. It's sooooo *nakaka-kilig naman kasi talaga.* I waited for this moment no. And, this message made me realized that it's really true.
Also, I really felt the warm welcome of my co-members. Thank you, guys! :) Will do my very best to be active in our talks. Promise!
Another goal, unlocked! Next? Well, one of my greatest goals here in blogging is to get noticed by PVM and Sir Marc. Even just a simple and short comment *lang* from them, it's already enough. Bonus *na lang* if there's some surprise/s. Hihi!
That's all for today. I really did my best to write an article about this one despite of my piled tasks for today. It should be shared no, hehe.
Hope you enjoyed reading my article. ❤

December, Let's Go For This Goals!
Before I start with this article, lemme first ask **how did November goes to you?** Is it good, great, or what? Did your month was showered with both of blessings and challenges? Of course, it is. Am I right? Either it's a yes or a no, we should still be thankful. Because all this things made us more stronger and tougher. <3
**Did it goes according to what we plan it to be?** I know, it's not. Coz even if we do thousand of planning, His plans will still be more superior than ours'. However, this is what I am sure. We did our very best to accomplish all our plans and to tell you, us? We did great! So, let's congratulate ourselves for a job-well done. 👏🏻
November had already bid its "***good bye and see you next year.***" And, another month comes in. It's been days since this month had begin but still, lemme say "***Hello, December!***" once again.
For me, another month means another start with a new set of goals. Last month, I've accomplished 4 out of my 5 goals that I shared in this article last December 01: **November, At Its Best!****.** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/november-at-its-best-4c57a304
And, this month? Let's give it another shot and see if things will still go according to what I am aiming for. 💖
For this article, lemme share the goals that I am aiming for this month of December.
What are they? ...... **Hereeee!**
For Christmas (December- $1 A Day Challenge).
Like what I say, my $1 A Day Challenge will take 111 days. I already filled **91 days** (September 01 to November 30) and was still left with **20 days**. Yes, it'll be until December 20. My savings for this month will be used for the presents for Media Noche or the New Year's Eve to be help by December 31 (12:00AM) to the next day/s.
So, self? Fightingggg! So that you can be able to buy a polka dots dress to be wear for New Year. Char, haha!
Buy a new phone for bro.
This one is my goal for this year of 2021, to buy a new phone for me and for my younger brother. I already bought one for myself last **June 25** after I got my scholarship allowance and I am just waiting for my another scholarship to buy a new phone for bro. His phone was an old model of Cherry Mobile and its already having some techno problems like lagging, hanging, and the phone storage was just 6-8GB, I guess. Not enough to install all the applications that he needs for his study. He said before that he's okay with a phone with PHP 5,000 price, I think it's RealMe that he said. Though, I'm still undecided on the model but I am already doing some researching about this. But, I'm torn between Vivo or RealMe *din talaga.*
*Btw, I'm open for suggestions, too. :)*
Fully paid Papa's motor.
Like the one that was mentioned below, it's also one of my goals this year. As of now, we are just left with remaining two months (December and January) to pay. And, by that we can really call that motor, **ours'**.
Actually, I am not obligated to pay for this. But because I don't want Mama to think of so many things, then I'll do this especially that I can help *naman.* It is also to lessen our worries and additional "*pundar*" for our family, too. *Sarap kaya sa feeling kapag may naipupundar, paunti-unti.*
Start purchasing items for my room self-renovation.
As I've said in my previous article (**My Initial Goals For Year 2022**), it's one of my goals (again) for 2022. At first, it was just our (my and sis') room but as days goes by, I decided to include bro's room. If online classes will still continue next semester/s, I want our rooms to look more pleasing. My actual plans are to polish the walls (*ipapalitada)*, paint it with light colors, add some wall shelves, and replace some of our things like the pencil and file holders, drawers. See my plans? It shouts additional expenses ey, haha. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-initial-goals-for-year-2022-3a44913e
Because of this I am considering to pay a visit to my godparents by December 25. *Mga Ninong at Nonang, beke nemen.* Haha, kidding. I'm too old to *mamasko* noh. I know that they will just say, "*sa kasal mo na lang.*" Like, what? *Jowa nga po, wala eh.* 😅
`This following goals are those that I really want to accomplish at the end of the month. In short, this are the main highlights of my December goals:`
Finish all my to-dos in Google Classroom.
First semester of Academic Year 2021-2022 is about to end in a few days. Based on our university's Academic Calendar, the classes will end by December 20. And yet, unfinished activities are still piled up in my Google Classroom's to-dos. As of this very moment (December 04, around 8PM), I am left with 11 activities in different subjects.
This activities are narrative and assessment reports, business plan, term paper, brochure making, documentation video, and the revision of my thesis outline. But of course, that number aren't final. Since that classes are still ongoing, I am expecting for moooore activities to come including our weekly quizzes and final exams.
Hoping that I can finish it all before the end of classes or a day or two after. I want to have a vacay no, especially to spend the Holidays without academic backlogs. So, self? PUSHHHHH! :)
My simple Christmas gift giving.
This is the reason why I am doing that $1 A Day Challenge, to be able to buy some presents Holidays and gifts for our family and close relatives in Christmas. As of now, I already completed the gifts for my two teenager cousins (all-girls) and for Papa and bro. Was just to buy gifts for myself, Mama, sis, and my four toddler cousins. Then, I'm gonna proceed to wrapping and I'm all done.
Last week, I received three parcels and was waiting for the last (*'di pa final uy, haha!*) parcel in my list of online purchases.
I will look for some items at the city proper next week before I purchase other items in my Shopee cart. *Basta*, I should finish the buying before December 20.
You can read my plans and progress in these articles: **For Myself: Plans For Holiday Gifts** and **Added To Cart****.** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/for-myself-plans-for-holiday-gifts-c113abaa https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/added-to-cart-db1f6128
Celebrate the Holidays ..... with overflowing happiness and enjoyment.
This is my ultimate goal for this month, to celebrate the Holidays. Well, not just to simply celebrate it but most of all is to have fun, happiness, and enjoyment with the family while spreading love.
All of us are soooo excited for this days, right? Well, who wouldn't be? And, yeah. We can already feel it more due to the very cold breeze. *Feel na feel na ih.* 😻
I'm also accepting gifts, *beke nemen.* It's okay to not wrap it, *paki-send na lang po* in my coins.ph or bitcoin.com wallet. Charrrrr! 🤪 *Baka lang lumusot, hehe.*
As you can see, I don't include my usual goal of my target earnings in both platforms (noise.cash and read.cash) and the number of articles that I should publish within the month. Why? Because I am expecting that I will be more busy on the next days. So*, bawi na lang talaga* next year*.* Hihi! :D
That's all for today, hope you enjoy reading this article. HAPPY READING!

November, At Its Best!
**November, November, November.** How can you define this month? Is it good, great, or even greater? How about bad? Is it bad, do you think?
Me? Yes and No. Yes, it's undeniably great. I mean, above great. No, it's not bad. How can I say that it's not bad? Simply because I know from the beginning that I will be blessed and will also need to deal with life's challenges. For me, we always need to expect that every month will not just be full of blessing, but challenges, too. In that way, we can not feel bad because we don't just expect for good things to only happen. Anyways, enough with this sentiment.
As what I said in my previous articles, it's already a culture here in read.cash to share our new sets of goals every month and to also write a month-end article about what happened to those goals. It's not to brag, but to extent how gratitude and proud we are in regards to our accomplishments or let's say "**achievements**."
Last November 02, I wrote an article sharing my November goals: **November Says, "Follow Your Dreams"**. Compare to my goals on the previous months of June to October, my goals on the 1oth month of this year 2021 is indeed a fewer. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/november-says-follow-your-dreams-9e2373c4
And, what are they? Tadaaa! Presenting, my **November Goals! ✨🌻**
**30 days** had passed by and November had already bid it's good bye but it did assured us that it'll comeback next year. Before I start this month with another list of goals, let me highlight it first how my **November** had been, **at its best!** <3
`Let's start with this one .....`
Earn at least;
**(A) 0.2 BCH in noise.cash.**
On the past few months, I always include this one in my aims. Not because I just want to earn alone, but because I want to have something to push me more in hustling. This way, it helped me a lot. It's like it's giving me another reason why I want to strive for more and to **grow and glow** in the most positive way that I can. Not just in terms of financial aspect, but through communicating with larger scope of positive minded people that can helped me upon.
This month had been so very busy to me, I need to accomplish mooooore activities, quizzes, and exams. But, hey! I still managed to be flexible. Flexible enough to be a full time student, a daughter, and Ate. Also, as a hustler. And, look! Here's what I've got with my *kadaldalan* in noise.cash. Gadddd! I was just aiming for 0.2 BCH but I got more than what I had expected. It just proved more that He's so fond of giving us surprises. 💓
**0.38+ BCH in just 30 days? Or 228 times of reaching my target minimum payout?** Excluding those that I received through QR code tipping and from the comeback of the old tipping system. Well, that's already a lot.
**(B) 0.1 BCH in read.cash.**
Now, let's proceed to read.cash. Since that I have a lot in my plates, I already expected that I won't be able to reach this goal. Also, considering other factors like I and Rusty will have a love quarrel (LQ). Kidding, hihi! XD. So yeah, back to the story. Despite of my loaded to-dos in academics, I did my best to make it all up. Academics, responsibilities at home, blogging. And, here's what I harvested from the hard works that I planted.
I made it happened, I made that 0.1 BCH happened! And, I even managed to double it up. Thank y'all! :)
Overall, I did earned **0.5+ BCH**. But since that I have needs to fill in, converting is what I opt to do. Hehe! But, was still able to hodl more than half of it. Yieee! Got an additional to my current HODLings. <3
For Christmas (November- $1 A Day Challenge)
For the months of September and October, I successfully achieved my $1 A Day Challenge. Wherein, this is where I will get the funds for my planned simple Christmas gift giving within our family. Instead of giving money, why not just give them materials that they can use? Yah know, practicality at its finest. LOL!
And for November, I created another wallet for it. But, I didn't pushed that *"sending of $1 every day"* anymore. It's because I am thinking of the transaction fees. If I will send $1 (with its equivalent BCH amount) every day, it'll took me fees. And then, I will send it back in my main wallet by the end of the month. *Sayang 'yung magagamit for transaction fees*. So, what I did is that I just directly converted it into fiat. To sum it all up, I had **0.1+ BCH** savings for that whole duration of three months.
Then, tadaaaa! I also started purchasing items for my gifts last week and I've been using that savings of mine. So excited to give it to them by Christmas Eve (December 24) or by December 25.
Finish my business plan.
This one? I've also been aiming to finish this one. But apparently, I didn't make it. There was a lot more tasks to do and I wasn't able to *isingit* it. However, I already had a progress naman na. And, I'll just continue it next week. Hoping that I can finish it before the classes for first semester ends. FIGHTING, SELFFFF!
Publish 8-10 articles.
Now, let's get down to my published articles. Last October, I didn't set a goal with the numbers of articles that I should publish. But, I decided to give it a shot again. I started publishing my piece of writing by November 02 and I didn't expect that I will be able to write more. More than what I am aiming. Look! I even exceed that supposedly **8-10 articles** as I did published a total of **14 articles**. Omoooo! 🙀

*Thank you, guys for showering my articles with lots of loving. Especially to Rusty The Great. :D*
1 Bitcoin Cash! 💕
**1 BCH**, who wouldn't want to have it, right? Like what I said, 1 BCH wasn't my goal here in this world of blogging. I'm already fine with having earnings that'll sustain my weekly load allowance. But, as time passed by and being exposed to goal-getter content creators both in noise.cash and read.cash? It changed.
By January to June, I was okay to have nothing or just a little amount of BCH to hodl. But, I decided to get back on my senses and aim for more as I know that there's more waiting for me. So by July to November, I've been aiming to have that 1 BCH and after months of grinding?
Finally, I had it now! I unlocked my very first 1 BCH by November 07, 2021. ❣❤
And now, **I am already a 1 BCH HODLer** and was proud to say that I am currently on the **road for 2BCH**! :)
Just keep doing what you are doing, self. And, you'll achieve all your goals. Slowly and little by little. 🧡
Aside from this stated goals, there's this one that I, more like our family, had achieved! What is it? Well, **four of us in the family are already fully vaccinated with anti-COVID 19 vaccine**. Wieeee! One to go na lang. But since, sis was just 11 years old *pa lang*, she can't get the vaccine yet. Nonetheless, what's important is that we're now more safe. Not totally safe as there's still a chances to be infected, but still. It's already a great move! (❁´◡`❁)

I Don't Own A Bank, Don't Always Run To Me!
`This article don't meant to commend those who was lending money to other people nor to those who have debts. Just want to share my opinions and thoughts about this matter and also my experiences.`
Actually, I should have written this one by November 28 after I read this article of Ate @Eirolfeam2's entitled **Why I Don't Like Lending Money**. But, yeah. My responsibilities outside the virtual world was holding grudges on me. Nonetheless, lemme do it today. Hope you'll like it! :) https://read.cash/@Eirolfeam2/why-i-dont-like-lending-money-32a1353b
I was so vocal with regards to my financial-related goals. How I planned my future wherein I can finally be **financial free**, well not totally free but was able to sustain my needs and wants including my family's. I've been aiming to finish my bachelors degree, get my license through acing the board exam, looking for a job aligned with my chosen path of career, be regular (more so a permanent employee) through having my Masters of Science degree, and establishing a business. This are the ways that I've been looking for that can help me get through with my financial goals.
Am I successfully having it? Not yet but I can say that **"I am on the way to it.**" How and why? Because I am sensing that I'm having that progress. Before, whenever that I or our family wants to buy clothes or foods that we just usually have when there's an occasions? We can just only dream and make ourselves salivate but won't have it at the end. Why? Because we are thinking if we can have foods for lunch or dinner. But, now? Oh, we can have it. Whenever we want to. Also, we can buy boxes of groceries now that we can't even do before. We can now also go to the city proper to buy merienda, order items in online stores. To the point that our neighbors are looking on us when we are going home carrying boxes full of stocks and a cavan of rice or when there are parcels to delivered to us. And, we can't do all of this before. Yah know, *gipit* eh.
We've started to experienced a lil changes in our lives since last year. Is it good? Of course, why would it be bad? Having a lighter life compare to what we have before was indeed so awesome. But, what I don't want for having this lighter status of life? It's the fact that some of our relatives seems to see me like a **human ATM**. Yeah, sounds OA but that's the truth. They won't directly say it to me, apparently? I can feel it. How? Here's how:
**"They've been asking me to lend some money to them, as often as they need it."**
It's okay for me to lend some to them, sometimes but not this often. Not this often that whenever they need money, they will immediately run to me. Like once a week? For what? Either for their child or children's milk or diaper, for gasoline, foods, etcetera.
*As you can remember, I am also soooo vocal that* ***I don't want to have my own child yet****. But, why does it seems to I need to also include milk and diapers in my budget? When in fact, I don't need to because I don't have a child who needs this stuffs.*
Do I sounds so OA in that part? Maybe, yes but maybe, no. It's just that I don't like their attitude. Yah know, ***borrow and forget****.* Do I also sound a lil bit selfish or *masama ang ugali*? Especially that they are my relatives and those who'll consume those things are my cousins. But I can't help to ask myself, **"Why? Why am I feeling so obligated to lend them my money?"** It's not my responsibilities but they're making me feel like I am obligated to share what I am having. Is it because we are living together? Either ways, I am not happy with it anymore.
There are also a lot of instances that when I did some groceries today? Expect that one of Mama's siblings will ask for me to lend some to them, the next day or days. Why *naman ganoon?* Huhu!
Also, what I don't want during this times is that they'll just gonna message me in Facebook Messenger even though we are just living in under one roof. When in fact, they can ask me directly. *Mas gusto ko pa kapag ganito.* And in addition, they tend to think that I always have a money to pick at my pocket or wallet whenever they're gonna ask me. Just, what? I'm still a striving college student, like I always say. But, why? Why that instead of they're the one to help me, I am the one who was doing that for them? Considering that they have a job and a high salary compare to what I am having in my hustles.
Yes, they have their own family to feed up their needs. But, why does it seems like they in so much need? Simply because of **debts**, *nabaon eh.*
Personally, I am not a fan of having debts. Because aside from it's like a sin to me (just like how Ate Florie Mae defined having debts), it can also be an **addiction**. Yes, it wasn't just drugs or gambling that will make us feel addicted but debts, too. I remember what Papa said before, "***once you started to asked money thrice or up to five times, you will start to feel addicted. Like whenever you need some money, borrowing will be the first on that you'll think and consider of."*** Yes, it depends on the people, us. But this is what I also observed to my Uncles and Aunts. They'll keep on borrowing when there's another options to choose, like having side lines or saving up.
Yes, I feel sympathy for them too especially that I am thinking of my younger cousins but I am starting to feel like I am already fed up. Why? They're getting used to it to the point that I can't have some when I am the one who's in need. Also because, **I am not an ATM nor I don't own a bank**. ATM machines *nga nauubusan ng laman eh, ako pa kaya?* I also faced financial crisis with our family and with that? It clearly shows that I am not *mayaman* or something like that. This is the exact reason (I mean, one of the reasons) why I don't like to spill the beans that I am making a living through noise.cash and read.cash despite the fact that I want to invite them in here, too. But, *'wag na pala*. There's so many consequences ey, consequences that will just pull me down or *ako lang din kawawa sa huli*.
Mama and Papa was so shy to ask me to give or let them borrow some from me. Yes, they are my parents but they feel so shy but why? Why do I need to experience it from her siblings? Actually, they are also not in favor with what they are doing and there was also times that Papa said, **"baka naman kapag may trabahao ka na, sa'yo na sila aasa sa ganiyan."** Me? I've been thinking of it too. *Ngayon pa lang, ganito na eh.* What if I already have a job na?
There are also times that I am saying **"no"** to them but not at all times. Especially when they know that I have one. Sometimes, I just want to say to them that I ain't a human ATM nor a bank owner.
But I don't want to hear negative feedbacks from them like the usual, "***nagkaroon lang, yumabang na agad*****."** or **"*****ang damot mo naman.*****"** Yah know, *kalimitang sinasabi ng iba kapag 'di napagbibigyan.*
But, I am hoping. Hoping that they'll be more resourceful in life, too. And of course, understanding. Because not at all times, they can have something to borrow. ;)
That's all for today's article. Again, this is just to share my experiences and some thoughts about borrowing money. Did you enjoyed reading this eme-emeng article? Hehe, char. HAPPY READING! <3

***Ohayoooo, everyone! It's Friday, again. Meaning, weekdays are about to finish and we'll bound to welcome weekends again. But anyways, how's your weekdays goes? Is it productive? Or both productive and unproductive? Mine? It's the second one. I've made so much progress on my workloads and got days of resting and relaxing both of my mind and body. So, yeah. Where's the unproductive thingy in there? I don't know, too. Hihi! Oh right, this is what we've about to talk, anyways. So, let's proceed to our focus.***
I know I had shared it so many times in both read.cash and noise.cash, but lemme shared it one more time.
September 1st, is when I started my **$1 A Day Challenge**. It's my way to slowly saved for the upcoming Christmas celebration on December 25 and how will I save? I will send $1 from my everyday noise.cash earnings to this certain wallet(s) of mine in bitcoin.com every day until I reached the last day of my savings plan. This plan of mine will take 111 days starting from September 01 to December 20. If I will be able to fill all this 111 days, I can accumulate $111. Though, I am expecting it to be lower than this since the BCH price was volatile.
By the month of **September**, I saved **0.048 BCH** and **0.051 BCH by October**. Don't mind the dollar currency because it keeps on changing, any minute. Sharing how it looks like below:
This past few days, I decided to do not send $1 to my savings wallet for this month of November. As I've said to myself that I'll just directly convert it into fiat. Why? I am thinking about the transaction fees. If I'll keep in sending some BCH every day then I'll just send it back to coins.ph, then it'll take more fees in transaction. And, that's what I did this morning. I calculated my possible Christmas savings this month and it reached about **0.046 BCH**. To sum it up, my savings from September to November had amounted to about **0.146 BCH** and when I converted it into Philippine peso, it reached around more than PhP 4,200.00. Gadddd! It was more than what I am expecting. ❣
I've shared before that I am already listing out the items that I'll give as my Christmas gifts to myself, our family, and close relatives, I mean my cousins. And, it was in this article: **For Myself: Plans For Holiday Gifts****.** I had also mentioned here that I am gonna give gifts to 12 persons. To myself, my parents, 2 younger sibs, and 7 younger cousins. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/for-myself-plans-for-holiday-gifts-c113abaa
And just yesterday (November 25) afternoon, I started placing orders in Shopee. Yes, *papabudol tayo nang todo* this month. HAHA! Last day, my digital purchases just looks like this:
By the night, I added another set of order. And this morning, two additional orders was placed. After numerous times of clicking the **place order button**? This is how it looks now:
And, yeah. More to go pa, hehe. Now, my gifts for myself, to Papa, to my younger sister and brother, and to my two teenager cousins are all completed *na*. I just need to find something for Mama and to my four toddler cousins and I'm all done.
But, what did I ordered already? Now, I am waiting for this items to arrived any day from this day.
**4** men's cotton shirts and **2** men's jogger sweat shorts.
**7** women' shirts and tops and **3** brallets.
**2** dolphin shorts (indoor) and **3** outdoor shorts.
Overall, I already ordered **21 items**. Like what I said above, **more to go pa**. As per my gifts to Mama, I am planning to but those stuffs personally at the city proper. And, for my toddler cousins? That goes the same to Mama. Since that my 3 and 4-year old cousins are soooo into writing and coloring, maybe an art materials will be suited for them? Well, let's see.
More so, I saw this rompers in one of the legit stores in Shopee. And, gadddd! I can't help but to fell in love with them. Specially to this one:
I am planning to buy two rompers with different colors for me and my sister. Kinda looks like a twinnie, I know sis will like this because she's so *kikay.* HAHA! Yeah, we have the confidence to wear it outside but Papa will surely won't let us. It's kinda revealing on the back part eh. And like what I said, we are just allowed to wear this kind of dresses inside the house as Papa was afraid that *baka mabastos daw kami* or *pag-chismisan* because of what we wear. Typical Father it is.
So, I just looked for other styles of rompers. Until, I saw this two.
On the left side (mustard color), that's what I am planning to purchase for me. But, not that same color ah. Maybe, I'll go with the khaki or nude one. Then on the right side, that's for my sister. Since she's more whitish and flawless, this suited her. The price was still fitted in my budget for gifts, so I will purchase it tomorrow.
And, that's all for my shopping galore.
21 items are now added to cart. More to go paaaaa! 💖
**Me to myself:** Budol na budol ka ah. 😂
That's all for today. Will surely share the next happenings in this first Christmas gift giving of mine. Stay tune! :)
HAPPY READING!
