TITLE: <March Shopee Budol Purchases Slash Review>
DATE OF PUBLISHING: <March 13, 2022>
**Hello, everyone! :)**
Shopee 3.3 Sale is now over but Payday Sale or 3.15 Sale is just about to arrive. Do you already added some items in your cart? And, had you already saved some money for the payment? Or will just ask or borrow some to our parents? Like what I did today, uWuuu. Haha!
Let's have some recap first. Last January, I only ordered in Shopee once and same as to February. By which I shared it in this article: **My Second Shopee Budol Purchase This 2022**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-second-shopee-budol-purchase-this-2022-c2283da0
But, how about this March? Wandering how many times I purchased this month? Well, not just once but twice. Yes, twice. To think that we're just down to the 13th day. Acck! Where is that new motto-slash-goal of yours, self? *To not order too much in Shopee*.
For today's article, let me share my Shopee budol purchases this March.
I first ordered by 03.08.22 and was then delivered on the afternoon of 03.11.22. Yes, that fast. And, here's how the parcel looks.
As you can see, guys, the items are really secured in terms of the packaging. There has bubble wrap and a carton for additional means of packaging and that's 100/10 for me.
So, what's inside the parcel? Here and take a look.
Desktop bookshelf organizer
*Product link:* https://shopee.ph/product/58179131/13925966895?smtt=0.347879845-1647156388.9
Do you know or remember how I'm fond of organizing stuffs? Maybe, you are. May it be from my daily to-do list, study table-slash-area,to my assignments, errands, everything. But, not at all times. Just like when I am so busy with academic thingy especially upon doing my sketchnotes in major subjects like Mycology, Phytonematology, and BAM. And, here's hoe our table looks like during those times.
*Mas messy pa diyan kung tutuusin.* As in~ and that's the exact reason why I ordered this organizer. Also, to save up some spaces. It was for PhP 185.00 ($3.53). After Papa assembled it, tadaaa! Here's how our study place looks now.
It made me more motivated and inspired to do my academic grinds and side hustles. Wie! 💃
Heat-resistant glass water bottle
*Product link:* https://shopee.ph/product/58179131/7701374524?smtt=0.347879845-1647156449.9
Since I am targeting for the free shipping discount, I opt to add additional items to fill in that PhP 249 minimum spend. And, this item is one of it. For just 32 pesos or $0.61, I have another tumbler to use while doing my tasks.
And, here's the other one.
Multi-function minimizer desk pencil holder https://shopee.ph/product/58179131/8470543812?smtt=0.347879845-1647156323.9
*Product link:* https://shopee.ph/product/58179131/8470543812?smtt=0.347879845-1647156323.9
I don't know why I ordered it, *basta pandagdag lang talaga*. Hehe~ each one is worth of PhP 25.00 ($0.48) and so I just ordered two for $0.95.
All in all, this four items are worth of PhP 280.00 ($5.34). Super sulit, guys and no one has any dents. Dropping here the shop's link, feel free to click to see their products.

Next, my second parcel for the month.
My first order/s was funded by some of my noise.cash earnings. And unlike that first one, this second parcel was paid with my tutorial earnings. As you know, I also do tutorial sessions with some kids here in our community. That's where I started before I begun my blogging journey.
And, yes. Dito ko pinasok si, ***"I deserved this."*** Haha! Of course, my throat hurts so much from talking for straight 2-hours everyday.
Actually, I am torn between ordering sling bags or sandals. And at the end, I had here some woman's sandals. Not just for me but also for Mama and my sister. I want to order for Papa and bro *sana* but it's my first time to purchase footwear *kasi*, so I'm a bit worried in the sizes. So, *dito ko na lang sila bibilhan sa amin*.
Ordered after my tutorial last Friday, 03.11.22 and was immediately delivered today, 03.13.22. *Napaka-bilis, guys. J&T ba naman eh~* 🚀
And, here they are. If you are still familiar with my tastes in dresses, clothes, bags, and footwear, you would know why I chose this colors.
Two strap platform sandals heels for women
*Product link:* https://shopee.ph/product/64946514/10526147585?smtt=0.347879845-1647156581.9
For PhP 129 ($2.46), you'll have this oh-so-sossy sandals and this is for me. This one is made of rubber but not the usual one *na malambot*. Omooo! It's so beautiful that I think I'm inlove with it. Kyaaah! 😍 It has maybe 2-inches heels and so perfect for occasions or important errands. I'm torn between beige or khaki color, but I still ended up with the khaki one. *Ganda*, gals. Promise!
Korean sandal slippers for women
*Product link:* https://shopee.ph/product/64946514/10526147585?smtt=0.347879845-1647156581.9
This one is for Mama. And, I am so happy that she loved it. For just 55 pesos or $1.05, *may isang Nanay na naman ang sumaya*. LOL!
Korean fashion ladies casual flat slippers
*Product link:* https://shopee.ph/product/64946514/17001380714?smtt=0.347879845-1647156692.9
And, this one is for my kikay *na* sister. I chose pink for her coz she really likes that color, well the lighter one and not fuchsia pink. *Nauumay daw s'ya 'dun*, hehe. As per the price, it costs PhP 89 ($1.70). *May maliit na dent lang but it's manageable naman.*
**And, here are my orders in one frame.**
All of them are in size 36 because the three of us has the same sizes *lang naman*. And, the seller sent the items in correct sizes and it fit to us *naman*. Over all, these three women's sandals costs PhP 313.00 or $5.97. Not that pricey like those authentic ones but still, they look so sossy and the quality? 1000/10. 💓
Here's the store's link, guys. If you trust my taste, go and check their products. Super worth it and all are affordable.

Thank You, Noise.cash!
ARTICLE NO. 39 OF 2022
TITLE: <Thank You, Noise.cash>
DATE OF PUBLISHING: <MARCH 11, 2022>
Can you still remember when I shared before that **we, our family had finally moved out** from the house that we had grown up? https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/we-had-finally-moved-out-2cca9fa4
That happens last December 21, 2022. Why we ended up moving and renting another house when in fact, we already have one? Here's **why**. But to make it more shorter, we moved out because of so many serious conflicts with Mama's relatives. May it be from her old-maiden Aunts to her own younger brother and other relatives. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/were-gonna-move-out-25b9a841
As we moved in to our new house or "home" rather, we paid PhP 1800.00 for the one-month advanced payment and another PhP 1800.00 for the deposit. Making it to **PhP 3600.00** or **$68.80.**
Since my parents doesn't have that amount of money, I shouldered it all. Yes, that whole 68.80 USD. Didn't even asked our parents for even a single centavos. Aside from the house rent for our first month (January) and deposit, I also carried upon those other expenses like the groceries and some stuffs needed at home. In there, I had **my biggest BCH conversion in 2021** amounting to PhP 9000.00 ($175.34). https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-biggest-bch-conversion-in-2021-7c3fd801
I didn't became so problematic regarding that matter. Wandering why? All because of our favorite and beloved noise.cash. And, I am so grateful in this platform for this so much help, opportunity, and blessings. 🌻
As I promised to Mama, "I will be the one who will gonna shoulder the monthly house rent that cost $36." Yes, in monthly basis.
And for me to be able to pay for this month, I did another BCH conversion in the morning of March 08 and then sent the fund in my bank account for easy means of withdrawal.
Since that we're in the middle of BCH dumping season, I need to increase my usual conversion of 0.1 BCH to 0.16 BCH. In that amount, I had here **2290.91 in Peso currency.**
In the morning of the next day, 03.09.22, I gave the PhP 2000.00 ($40) to Mama and let her pay for the rent.
After the money left my wallet and custody, I can't help but to think that it this certain lyrics in Rivermaya' song entitled "Kisapmata" was so suited that day.
*"Kanina'y nariyan lang o ba't bigla namang nawala.*
*Daig mo pa ang isang kisapmata."*
Agree or nah? HAHAHA!
And as of now, we already spent almost three months in here. From January to March, I was able to pay for the tent because of my noise.cash earnings.
**January 2022:** *Paid by 12.22.21*
**February 2022:** *Paid by 02.01.22*
**March 2022:** *Paid by 03.09.22*
As you can see, I always pay ahead of time even our due date for it was every 21st day of the month. Why? Simply, **to lessen the things that I need to think upon.**
Aside from the house rent, noise.cash also made me able to purchase other stuffs that I and the family needs. Such as this:
Yes again, another Shopee budol purchases. 🤸🏼♀️ I received this one just this afternoon and what inside the parcel are:
Desktop bookshelf organizer;
Multi-function minimizer desk pencil holder; and
Heat-resistant glass water bottle.
All of these items are for PhP 280.00 or $5.36. Will share the reviews and how they looks like in my next article this month.
There's this famous television segment here in the Philippines that is popular for giving monetary support to our fellow Filipino. It's the "Wowowin" and those lucky ones always says, "*Thank you, Kuya Wil. Thank you, Wowowin.*"
But, for me? It'll be "THANK YOU, NOISE.CASH!" 💜

They Hurt Me, I Hurt Them Too
ARTICLE NO. 38 OF 2022
TITLE: <They Hurt Me, I Hurt Them Too>
DATE OF PUBLISHING: <March 09, 2022>
**Hello there, fellow content creators and readers! :)**
It's March 09 today and as of the moment, I am supposedly not here. To follow my "**write an article every other day rule**", I shouldn't been composing this article and will publish it after some minutes or about an hour or two. But here I am, doing what I should be doing by the next day.
*Wondering how I am doing so?* There's this unexpected thing that happened between me and my younger siblings, minutes ago. What is it? Keep scrolling to know.
So, I started this day with the thought of hustling and how could I make this fruitful and profitable. Well, as usual. I woke up more earlier because I have so many backlogs and new tasks to chase with.
However, there's this blessing that came unto me last Saturday night. The Mom of my tutee asked me if I am free by this Wednesday to Friday to tutor her daughter for her periodical examination. Without having the knowledge of how would my weekdays will be, I immediately said "yes." Why? Simply because, "**that's another source of earnings**."
After the morning chores and picking-up of laundries, I started readying myself and things for the Day 1 of my straight-three-days-tutorial-session to begin at 9:30AM. Fast forward, I finished it and accumulated PhP 200.00 ($4) within just two hours.
I got home by past twelve in the noon and I saw my parents preparing for their errand which is to go to Papa's parent's house for Lola's 65th birthday. I didn't go with them as I know that Papa will get drunk and that'll surely pissed me and Mama. So, I just gave $6 to buy Pancit Malabon to add for her food presents.
**Fast forward again ...**
I and my younger siblings (bro and sis) was left at home. We ate our lunch around 12:30PM and after that, I did the cleaning and all. By almost 3:30PM, something came up. Something that made a chaos between me and my siblings. Something that hurt and made the three of us, crying.
I was lying in the floor while watching a GMA afternoon prime when I heard something that was thrown in the floor, a bowl with some rice and viand. After some seconds, my younger brother stormed in the living room all the way from the kitchen and go near with our younger sister. He was holding a plate of foods and what he did next was really unexpected. He forcefully pushed the plate in our sister's stomach and angrily said, "*ayan, kainin mo lahat 'yan*." And that left our youngest, crying and hurt.
The reason why he did that? He got pissed of our sister's attitude. As you know, she's a bit stubborn and *maldita*. That sometimes, she's out of range. Funny thing that, only one man had made two ladies crying. Me and my sister~
I was so hurt with his actions, I feel like he neglected all my efforts of putting some foods in our plates. Especially that, he was fully aware of how I worked hard for those foods to be bought. Of how I get tired and drained to earn just to support our family and needs, *kahit na napaka-hirap.*
Because of my *sama ng loob*, I grabbed the plate that was being held by my crying sister. Stormed outside the house, go to the backyard, and thrown the food. Again, I came back to the kitchen, grabbed all the remaining foods (our lunch and some sauteed mungbean), and thrown it together with the bowls. Yes, *tinapon ko talaga.* At the end, no cooked foods was left and three bowls are all broken.
I didn't feel that "*panghihinayang*" because all that I can feel was pain and *sama ng loob*. Until now, I am still crying even the kids had apologized to me already.
At first, bro was talking back and been insisting that I should disciplined our sister and not him. So, here's me. Shouting at them, cussing using that P.I. word (*kahit 'di talaga ako nagmumura*), and I even kicked the innocent electric fan. Again, I go to the kitchen and thrown some plastic glasses that I saw in the kitchen table.
I even said, "*wala pa kayong naia-ambag dito, nagtatapon na kayo ng pagkain? Gumaganyan na kayo?*"
"*Akala n'yo pinupulot ko lang 'yang pinambibili ng kinakain natin?*"
"*Sige, ubusin n'yo na 'yang mga groceries jan. Kasi last na 'yan~.*"
"*Para kayong si Papa jan sa pinapakita n'yo sa'ken ngayon. Wala na ngang mai-ambag, 'di pa iayos 'yung ugali.*"
Yes, I sounded like nanunumbat. But, I was so hurt. And maybe, everything had mixed up that moment? The tiredness, exhaustion, pressure, and all that it led me to breakdown emotionally. 💔
And lastly, I said "'wag n'yo akong kakausapin hangga't 'di n'yo inaayos 'yang ugali n'yo." Then, I stormed inside the room and shut the door with force. *Halos mayanig 'yung dingding sa lakas~*
When I laid down the bed, tears had flown in my cheeks like a waterfalls. My shouldered are shaking, my body's trembling so hard. What I asked to myself? "**Why? Why is it so hard to be a breadwinner? I just wanted our lives to be more lighter and this is what I'll get in return?**"
Everything's okay now. Not less than 20 minutes, bro came to me and hugged me so tight. If you'll see him, he's a big and grown-up boy (*mas malaki pa nga s'ya sa'ken eh*), and getting matured slowly. But, that moment? He seems so fragile. He's crying while holding my hands and murmuring, "*sorry na, Ate. Pansinin mo na ako uy.*"
That moment, I can't talk because I'm crying so hard. And so I said to him what's running in my mind ...
"*Bakit mo ginawa 'yun? Alam mong grabe puyat ko basta kumita lang. Nakikita mo 'yun, di'ba? Tapos ganiyan ipapakita mo sa'ken?*"
"*Babae si Venice, Mak. Babae 'yan tapos dinuro-duro mo tapos dinuldol mo 'yung pagkain sa kaniya? Para mo namang ginawang timawa sa pagkain."*
And ...
"*Sa akin ka lang ba dapat mag-sorry?*"
And he said that he first apologized to our sister. Yes, I am a strict and a bit of manipulative-slash-dictator type of Ate. But, that's all for them. I don't want that other people will disrespect them because of how they move. And, I don't tolerate this kind of attitudes in the family. I don't want it, I don't want to have conflicts with them because that's how Mama and her siblings are. *Watak-watak, magulo*.
It's all good now. They're talking with each other and I hope that it won't happen again. Because it'll hurt me and Mama more than them. I'm also aware of my mistakes like cussing them and all and I'll make it up to them, that's for sure.
I'll erase this in my mind and I wished that it won't make our bond at risk, but more stronger than before. And that it'll give them, us a lessons. ✨

How I Do The Grocery Shopping?
ARTICLE NO. 37 OF 2022
TITLE : <How I Do The Grocery Shopping?>
DATE OF PUBLISHING: <March 08, 2022?>
Grocery shopping, restocking ...
That're one of the many things that I adore the most. Maybe, adulting really hits me so hard that spending such amount of money for the home stocks made me feel so satisfied and fulfilled.
Every time that I am planning to do a grocery shopping? My cells and tissues feels so alive, to the point that they are tumbling inside of my body 24/7. Haha, kidding! But seriously, the thought of me? Going inside the supermarket, pushing a cart, grabbing lots of foods to drinks to toiletries and anything, and filling in my baskets or cart? That's so indescribable. Seems like I am doing a huuuge thing for our family and for my self-contentment.
*Before I proceed to the highlight of this blog, I would want to ask a question to you, guys. "****Regarding the fulfillment of doing this task, do we think and feel the same?****"*
Now, let's move on to the main agenda. Again, it's another random sharing of thoughts and experiences. Well, most of my articles are about this topic in the first place. Agree or agree?
March had entered our live days ago. And as usual, we will start it with new goals and of course, expenses and bills. As of me, a brand new month do also means, "**another grocery shopping venture**." Over the first two months of the year, I already achieved this goal. And got to document them here, as well.
*Monthly grocery shopping venture:*
January 14: **My Thursday: A Day For My Monthly Goal** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-thursday-a-day-for-my-monthly-goal-f1875f98
February 11: **Grocery Shopping + Manhunting** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/grocery-shopping-manhunting-b2dc009d
As for the month of March, I did it last 03.03.22 and I am going to share it here with a question, "****How I do the grocery shopping?****"
In today's time, I first do my contribution to the health protocols. Answering the contact tracing form, sanitizing my hands and the cart, especially the handle. Then, proceed to the stalls where the items are. I usually use two grocery baskets and will just add additional one if the two baskets are already full.
*So, here's how I do the grocery shopping in an organized way. ❣*
**First,** the *****toiletries and laundry essentials*****.
Before I grab the foods, these are what I first to grab. Shampoos and conditioners, body soaps and hand detergent, toothpastes, mouthwash. And the laundry essentials like powder soaps, bar soaps, fabric conditioners, bleach, and etcetera. In here, we usually buy in sachets and not in bottles. Why? Because we can save more in sachets as compared to those in bottles, as in.
**Second,** the **dry foods**.
First in line are the coffees, sugars, creamer, Milo, and milks. Again, they are all in sachets. Next are the **canned-goods** like corned beefs and tuna, meat loafs, luncheon meats, sardines, tuna flakes.
*What about the brands?* Oh, we are a loyal ones here. In corned beef and meat loafs, it's always Argentina. *Kahit pataas nang pataas 'yung price, hehe*. Then, San Marino corned tuna and Century Tuna flakes. And, Mega sardines and Ma-Ling in luncheon meats.
*Why the pricey ones?* They are not that expensive as compared to other brands like PureFoods but still, it's a bit pricey. It's because we are into the quality as they are more tastier and delicious compare to other inexpensive brands.
Also, we won't miss the **noodles** or products that causes UTI (Urinary Tract Infection).
In here, I always buy those in packs with 6 pieces inside. *Mas makaka-save kasi~* but there's no in packed that day, so I opt to buy in pieces. Got here 6 pieces of Lucky Me pancit canton, LM noodles (beef flavored), LM Itnok, Nissin Ramen (spicy hot beef), and I'mm gonna try LM Jjamppong.
And of course, the **condiments**. Can't see them because they are in below of the noodles. Lastly, the **snacks**. I always picked them up lastly coz if I can feel that my budget is a bit big *pa*, I can add more items for our snacks.
That day, I only grabbed a few snacks because we still have some at the house and that it's already quarter to 7PM when I did the grocery shopping last week. And, here they are.
My purchased items are already packed by around 6:40PM. Sharing here a photo while in the line to the counter. *Tamang silip lang kay crushie na nasa entrance, while he's talking to the guards. Acccck!*
At the end, I had here a big box and brown paper bag that're full of stocks. But because I am hella tired and drained with my exams and errands, I just did the organizing of stocks or simply "**restoking**" by the next day, 03.04.2022.
Thank you, noise.cash for enabling me to do this goal (monthly grocery shopping) and provide for our needs in a monthly basis. 💚
As I finished organizing them all, here's how our kitchen racks looks after the restocking. *Sarap sa eyes, uWuuu!* 😍
And here is our cutie little cousin's (Zavina) own corner. All of this are just for her (except the *sugo*, because that's mine) and coz some other kiddie foodies are big enough, I opted to put them in other containers.
And, that's all for this random sharing. Hope you, guys like itttt! Until next grocery shopping galore. 💙

My Monday To Saturday + Destressing
ARTICLE NO. 36 OF 2022
TITLE : <My Monday To Saturday + Destressing>
DATE OF PUBLISHING: <March 06, 2022?>
Busy, stressful, exhausting ...
If I will define how's the whole week had been for me? That'll be the three words above. Unending schoolworks from my Professors and Instructors kept into coming and lining up in my Google Classroom's to-do list making me to be sooo **busy** everyday and be **stress**. My day won't pass without me aiming to finish even just a single assignment. Coz if not? I will be stucked in such a piles of tasks that will surely make me more stressed and burned out.
Who among here is my chitchat buddy or reader in noise.cash? If you are one, you already have the awareness of how's the previous days goes by in my daily life.
*In this article, lemme share what makes me so busy, stressed, and exhausted for a duration of* ***6 days*** *which is from Monday (02.28.22) to Saturday (03.05.22).*
Monday (February 28, 2022)
Actually, I don't have something to share for this day. The reason is that I can't remember what I did on that very same day, as in. I also don't have some photos in my phone's gallery to be used in backtracking. So, yeah. Let's just proceed to the next day's endeavor :D
Tuesday (March 01, 2022)
For this day, I only did **two tasks**. It's a bit busy, yeah. And, it was the start of my busy week's journey.
**Learning Assessment 2 in Basic Biotechnology Lab Class**
This subject is purely about science. *Complicated science*, I mean. LOL! In this assignment, I crumpled my mind to come up with a good output about principles of nucleic acid extraction in plants. I thought that I am all done with Genetics, but I am wrong again. Ackk!
I spent almost the whole day for this assignment and had finished it the hours before its deadline. *Sakit nito sa utaks, guys. As in!*
**Article #34 of 2022.**
To follow my goal of writing an article every other day, I just opted to write one tackling another financial-related topic. This one serves as my month-end article for February: **February's BCH Conversions and Cash-outs**. Nothing's new but still glad that you, guys liked it. 💓 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/februarys-bch-conversions-and-cash-outs-bbfebf98
Wednesday (March 02, 2022)
Like my Tuesday, I ended up accomplishing **two tasks**. Such as:
**Lab Exercise 3: Chytridiomycota in Mycology Lec Class**
Unlike the LE 1, I just need to draw two different plant diseases symptoms under the Phylum Chytridiomycota and their respective causal organisms. No need to answer any questions, just purely about drawings. And, I am so relieved in here. Won't be drained so much ey~ and, here is what my efforts led me.
I'm not that great in drawing, so bear with it *na lang*. Hehe! After I drawn everything, I then attached it to a document formatted-file and converted it to PDF. And, turned it immediately even it's deadline was by Thursday_11:59PM *pa.*
**1st Term Exam in Beneficial Arthropods and Microorganisms (BAM) Lec Class**
I already know that this exam will be difficult and I am right. Also that it will be taken in Quizizz and not in Google Form. But, tadaaa! I accomplished it after almost 2 hours. And, here's what I've got.
*Got here 64% or equivalent to 64/100. And, that's already a high score for me~ 👏🏻*
Thursday (March 03, 2022)
Thursday, it's mooooore busier and stressful than the other day. Why? It was or so-called "***exams day***." For today, I have **3 exams** to take. Good thing that all of them are due by the next day but still, it gave me so much headache.
**1st Term Exam in Phytonematology Lab Class**
This one really made me so stressed. Why? Coz I need to answer **9 questions** in an essay type. Ackkk! All are about facts about the study of nematodes and plants diseases caused by this pathogen. Good thing that I took it in my friend's house who has the same specialization with me, which Plant Pathology. Or else, I might go crazy.
*After answering it for almost 4 hours, tadaaa! Finished it around 1PM.*
**Quiz #1 in Ethics**
This is also a difficult task even its just a quiz. Ethics is my minor subject but seems like it's a major one, hmp. One thing is that it's about Philosophy and it's a subject with broader aspects to deal with. Still, managed to do achieved it.
*Got here 36/46. Same to my friend, hihi. Helping hands is the key in diffult and stressing times like this. 😉 Chars~ 'wag gagayahin.*
**1st Term Exam in Mycology Lab Class**
Here's another term exam in my major subjects in Plant Pathology. It's about fungi *naman* and all other things. And, I can say that I am more good at it as I can answer the questions even without looking at the learning materials. Maybe, I already memorized 15-25 fungal diseases, their signs and symptoms, causal organisms, and many more.
*And, tadaaa! Got here a total of 85%. Wieee~ 💕*
**March grocery shopping venture**
Since that I am already outside, I decided to do the monthly grocery *na*. Since it's already passed 5PM when I entered the supermarket, I enjoyed the moment to roam around coz there only a few of us inside. The entrance and exit was already closed *na din,* so yeah.
In the end, I got a big box and a brown paper full of stocks. Another stress reliever is I saw my crush in there, talking with the guards in the entrance coz his shift is already done. *Halatang gwapo kahit naka-face masks tapos maugat pa mga braso at kamay, ackkkk! Ahihihi,* @Ruffa. I am smiling while typing this phrase, haha.
Friday (March 04, 2022)
For this day, I am only aiming to finish the remaining unanswered items in my exam in Phytonem Lec. Started it by 8AM and finished it by 11:55AM, about 5 minutes before the deadline.
It drained me, as well. Sooo much! *Bara-bara na nga drawings ko eh, 'di ko na din kinulayan.* Bawal kasing ma-late or else, ackkk!
Saturday (March 05, 2022)
After I finished my exam in Phytonem Lec, I begun my drawings in LE 2: Zygomycota in Mycology Lab. Actually, it has the same deadline with LA 3 but I wasn't able to finish it that day. Good thing that our Prof allowed us to submit the outputs late coz it's exam week.
*After contemplating for more than a day, tadaaa! Done with the drawings. And, here's what I've got.*
*After the drawings, I proceed in answering the questions. And by 11:59PM of 03.05.22, I finished it! Ahhh. Finally, no more missing activity na. 🎊*
Because I am already sooo stressed for over two weeks *na,* I decided to treat myself *naman*. And coz I can't go outside to roam around like unwinding, I just opted to buy myself some Jollibee foodies. Been weeks since I last had it and I guess, it's the perfect time to do so.
Arrived at the city proper by 5:10PM and I first, dropped to Novo to buy some additional gel pens for my next drawings. And, this are what I had for PhP 126.00 ($2.43) only.
After that, I proceed to Jollibee. At first, I'll just order in drive thru *sana* but I saw that there's only a few people inside. So, I go inside and ordered foods.
**What did I ordered? Here:**
*3 regular Jolly fries; 3 pieces peached-mango pies; 1 C3 (spaghetti and chicken joy).*
*Family Super Meal with 6 pieces chicken joy, rice, spaghettis, sundaes, and regular drinks.*
Got my orders by past 6PM already. And, here they are. 🐝
This are what're inside the paper bags. Well, some aren't included in the photo coz my toddler cousins and my younger sister checked and grab theirs already. :D
The bill? It nearly reached $20, hehe. And, it's almost my weekly earnings in noise.cash but all are good. I immediately forgot the spending coz I got to accomplish my main goal, ****to treat myself******. ✨**

February's Earnings In Blogging
Backtracking my earnings in crypto-blogging ...
This is how I usually do my month-end articles last 2021. Whereas I'll encode all the BCH that're being sent to my coins.ph wallet. Before, I am used to setting up amount of the BCH that I should accumulate from doing articles in read.cash and short posts in noise.cash.
However, I suddenly stopped doing this kind of goal. Yes, I am still aiming to earn the same amount which is **0.2 BCH in noise.cash** and **0.1 BCH in read.cash**. It's just that it seems like I lost interest in backtracking. More so, I got so hookt in many things such as my studies and other responsibilities in the outside world.
The last time that I wrote an article to flaunt, in a good and positive way, this accomplishments was by November 2021 entitled, "**November, At Its Best!**." Wherein I earned my 2021 biggest BCH accumulation within just a single month. How much did I obtained? It's **0.5+ BCH** and I was like, "*seriously?*" Coz it was really unexpected, as in. So does when **I successfully unlocked my first ever 1 BCH by 11.07.21** and that 0.5+ BCH contributed a lot on it. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/november-at-its-best-4c57a304 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/finally-i-successfully-unlocked-my-first-1bch-7a8576fa
*Now, let me share my February BCH accumulation.*
Disclaimer: This is not to brag. Rather, to throw a simple appreciations to my little achievements. ✨
As I've mentioned above, I am aiming to reap **0.2 BCH** in noise.cash and at least **0.1 BCH** in read.cash. Why? Coz if I luckily had a total of **0.3 BCH**, that will enable me to fulfill my adulting responsibilities and goals. First, let's drop to noise.cash.
February noise.cash earnings.
Accumulating BCH in noise.cash nowadays isn't like before anymore. Yes, we can earn more bigger during the previous tipping system which is thru **hearts** (❤). But, we can still make some livings in Free Tips system. Just need to exert more efforts and perseverance.
Back to the topic. I wasn't that active this month of February coz again, "*I am a busy and struggling college student.*" A day won't passed without me, doing my assignments. To the point that I can't write an article in a daily basis as my time and tasks won't let me, even I kept on adjusting and managing them so well.
Nonetheless, I am still full of luck that I victoriously earned more than what I expect. What is my expectation? That I won't attain even half of my goal because I am really busy *talaga*, as in. If you were my reader in noise.cash, you would know how I engaged in my tasks.
And, look! I had here **0.179+ BCH**. Wie! 🎊
It might not as high as before, but at least I somewhat made my month **profitable**. Not like before that I can't have earnings, even a cents. At the end of the day, it's still a **blessing**. ❣
February read.cash earnings.
Just this January 2022, I got my first biggest earning as a content creator in read.cash with **0.447+ BCH**. How does that sounds ey? Sounds and looks so great. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-biggest-monthly-earning-in-readcash-a99f2186
After I sent my January read.cash earnings in my crypto-based wallet, this is how my read.cash wallet looks like.
After a duration of 28 days, I got to wrote and publish **13 articles** and **1 short post**. Here is a simple list of my February blogs:
February 01, 2022: **My Biggest Monthly Earning in read.cash**- **$7.67** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-biggest-monthly-earning-in-readcash-a99f2186

February 26, 2022: **My Journey As A Content Creator In read.cash**- **$7.74** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-journey-as-a-content-creator-in-readcash-f4b95174
within this 13 articles, I had **$76.54** excluding those upvotes from the comments. Overall, that reached **0.23+ BCH**. Even exceeded my target 0.2 BCH ey~ that's great. However, since BCH is volatile, that supposedly $76.54 dropped to **$76.07** as equivalent to the BCH accumulation. That's indeed great *pa din naman*.
That amount was from my second seed phrase. And, here's an additional **0.01+ BCH** (equal to **$3.33**, as of the moment) from my other seed phrase in my laptop.
To sum it up, that's **0.2434+ BCH**. All from read.cash itself~ 🥂
And, here is how my read.cash wallet by the first day of March 2022. Leaved this amount to be used in upvoting.
Now and despite of Rusty's quietness, these numbers are still growing into digits. Looking forward for another great month for blogging. Let's keep writing, fellow content creators. Don't mind the dip that much, instead? Let's grab the opportunity to accumulate more higher. 🧡

February's BCH Conversions and Cash-outs
**Hello to all of my fellow writers and readers! :)**
*Who missed me? Oh, I see. No one had missed me, huhuhu. Kidding! Anyways, I was absent again for two consecutive days. By Sunday, I am not scheduled to write because it is most for academics only. Then, I was supposed to write this article yesterday but my assignment in Basic Biotechnology had eaten me up, wholly. Now, let me make it up today.*
Month-end report ...
We, content creators had been made a sort-of "culture" here in read.cash. It is to write our monthly goals and month-end reports every end of each month. Well, I was once one of those creators. Since July 2021, I begun sharing here the goals that I wanna accomplished every months. Then on either the last day of the month or by the first day of the following month, I'll do a monthly report tackling how does aiming for my goals goes by.
On the other hand, I stopped doing it by January 2022. Well, not totally. I just changed the way of how I do it. No more sharing of my monthly goals but the month-end reports are still going through in the cycle.
**How do I do it now?**
*Through writing an article with my monthly expenses as the main topic. If you were one of my avid readers (if there are, hehe!) since then, you know how I am engrossed with budgeting and backtracking my expenses, so yeah. That's the reason.*
Last month, I wrote this article (**January: Filled With Expenses**) wherein I discussed the things that I had allotted my earnings in blogging and some of my scholarship allowance. However, we'll get in to another topic this though. Though, it's still within the financial aspect. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/january-filled-with-expenses-0eaad29a
Now, let's proceed upon backtracking my BCH conversions and cash-outs this February. And also, how they flew away soooo fast. 💸
For over 13 months of blogging, I am indeed a lucky lady to accumulate this numbers as **I got to earn and hold 1.4 BCH!**
Can you imagine that I had that passive income with just sitting and staying up in front of my gadgets, composing posts and articles, investing my time and ideas to come up with a quality contents? Well, nothing's impossible to a determined hustler. Yeah? Yeah.
*Okay, enough with some talking. Let's now proceed to our main agenda:*
February 11, 2022: For groceries and other home stocks
As I've been mentioning since before, I am a big fan of grocery shopping. To the point that I made it as one of my monthly goals. And to accomplish it this February, I pinched a little amount in my current BCH hodlings.
Since I still have some extra savings in my personal bank account, I just converted **0.1 BCH (worth of PhP 1714.00).** *Pandagdag lang talaga,* in case that I run out of money in my wallet. And, tadaaa! These are what I had after minutes of roaming around the Friendship Supermarket.
These are already sufficient to be spent for at least 2-3 weeks or so, it depends *pala*. Aside from these stocks, I also bought fresh goods like veggies and meats. Then, protections stuffs like face masks and etecetera.
**So far, I already achieved my grocery shopping goal for two consecutive months. 10 more months, self. 🛒**
*January Shopping Venture:* **My Thursday: A Day For My Monthly Goal** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-thursday-a-day-for-my-monthly-goal-f1875f98
*February Shopping Venture:* **Grocery Shopping + Manhunting** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/grocery-shopping-manhunting-b2dc009d
February 12, 2022: For Lola and CAS Graduation Celebration
On the next day, I did another conversions. This time, it is not for the family but for my late grandmother and for myself. Had converted another **0.1 BCH (worth of PhP 1628.00)** and cashed them out right away.
$12.69 (PhP 650.00) of it is for my contribution for Lola's first death anniversary. It's actually by February 17th but we celebrated it by 02.13.22 coz the oldies here in the community had a belief that it's bad to celebrate it on time, it should be more earlier *daw*. When I did the grocery shopping last 02.11, I already bough some ingredients for the pancit. This time, I only purchased disposable stuffs like spoons and plates. Also, the drinks and 2 kilos of chicken meat.
Then, I allotted the $19.53 (PhP 1K) for my presents in the CAS Graduation celebration on the 15th day of February. Bought some ingredients for spaghetti, ready-made lumpiang shanghai, a Goldilocks' round cake, and drinks. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/another-achievement-unlocked-07b78b67
February 15, 2022: For girl's gala
My long-time friends (including Carisdaneym2) goes to join me for my simple celebration. After the eating session, we decided to go to the food park located at the city proper. Girl's bonding *ba~* and coz I don't have extra money that time, I opted to pinched some BCH again. Acckkkk!
Didn't spent that much *naman* coz we, the girls had the same goal. To be thrifty, hihi. The money left with me was used to other things like our viands and for this, my P⚡nkFlash make-up set and face pore minimizer worth of Php 466.00.
February 21, 2022: For mini grocery shopping
The last conversion and cash-out this February was just worth of **0.032 BCH (PhP 503)**.
Did this "BCH-pinching" to fund my gel-or-sign pens for my Mycology drawings. Yes, *para lang sana diyan*. But, I can't stop myself to buy other things that I and my sibs needs for our studies. So, tadaaa! Ended up with other things in my basket, hehe.
And coz we ran out of snacks in the house, I dropped to FS Supermarket to buy some foodies and here they are:
*At isang bata na naman po ang tuwang-tuwa, hihi~* 🤗
Overall, I had four (4) BCH conversions and cash-outs this second month of the year which was worth of 0.332 BCH or equivalent to 5548.00 in peso currency. Hoping for more earnings and hodls this March. And most of all, less "BCH-pinching." 💕

My Journey As A Content Creator In read.cash
read.cash ... *How would you define this said blogging platform?*
As for me, "*it is the blogging platform that unleashed the natural skill in writing that's been sleeping inside of my body for years.*" As you can still remember, I am once a staff writer in our college's journalist/publishing team known as "**The Plowman**." One step to go and I will be the official *feature writer* of the team. But sadly, I quit. Simply because I can't handle the responsibilities, anymore. And more so, maybe I lost that "passion in writing." I don't know why but one thing is for sure, I wanna go back coz it became my home too. If there's another opportunity for me to come back, I'll gladly do so.
Good thing that here's read.cash that I can use for me to showcase my writing skills. I may not be a perfect kind of writer, but at least I kept upon improving more and more. And in addition, to voice out all my positive or negative thoughts. In short, **my sort of public diary.** 💛
In this article, I will share my journey here in read.cash through answering these **4 questions** from @MoonTrader's **My Read Cash Story Challenge.** that will also serve as my entry for his writing challenge. Though, I already shared it in my previous articles last year like in **July 27, 2021: The Day That I Was Waiting For!** wherein I mentioned some of my *first's* here. But still, here's another glimpse of my blogging escapades. https://read.cash/@MoonTrader/my-read-cash-story-challenge-fe52073a https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/july-27-2021-the-day-that-i-was-waiting-for-ca5ffef1
***And, here it goes ...***
How did you get here in "READ CASH"?
I've answered this kind of question for so many times and I am still proud to share it here, again and again. I got here in read.cash through my real-life friend, @carisdaneym2. Maybe that's around November-December 2020 when she started sharing links of her articles in our group chat and pushing us to try our luck in there. Though, I wasn't able to join here immediately coz I am a busy student with lots of responsibilities, a student leader, and as well as a daughter-slash-big sister.
I first joined read.cash last January 02, 2020 as "**imafutureagrcltrst**." Apparently, I had been so inactive until my account got marked as spam. Once again, here's my friend who urged me to create another account and do another try. Maybe, I can be lucky on my second attempt. Around April 2021, I came up with another article but it was already on the 20th of June when I decided to start writing a blog, again.
With the warm welcome of my co-writers in here, I got more inspired to strive. I fed myself with lots of motivations from my own experiences and from other's as well. And after months of writing, I can now call myself as a "**content creator**" and not just a "*wannabe-blogger*." With uncountable accomplishments and learnings. ✨
How challenging it is as a writer that need to write article everyday?
Writing an article in a daily basis is something that's so hard for me to accomplish. Like I said, I am a busy student. Therefore, coming up with an article in each day is really exhausting. Yes, I can surely do so but it depends upon the situation. Most of the time, I really can't. Especially nowadays that I am already in the second semester of my third year in college. Thesis outline, presentations, lots of activities including quizzes and exams, virtual meetings and webinars to attend, experiments, responsibilities as a member and Vice President of our student organization, etcetera. Just imagine how will I make all of these to fit in my ample time? Not to mention my obligations as a daughter and big sister. It's really difficult, believe me. *Kahit matalino and masipag (daw, hehe!) ako, ang hirap pa din ah.* 🙈
But, I'm pushing myself coz I don't want to waste this opportunity to make a living and improve my skills. BCH is dumping and so, I wanna grab this chance to accumulate more BCH to add in my hodlings. So, I can have more to pinch when I needed some money to spend. And because I can't afford to write an article everyday this time, I just opt to write one every other day. And, tadaaa~ it's more effective and less pressure to me.
How did "READ CASH" help you?
As a benefiting blogger of read.cash, this blogging platform had really made a remarkable part in my life. As a jobless lady before, I've been wanting to earn some m$ney so I can contribute something for our family's necessities. And, I am so glad that I met read.cash. After Rusty got to visit me for the first time last 07.27.2021, it continued over the next months until now. Since then, it helped me a lot primarily in terms of financial matters. In this article, **Noise.cash And Read.cash Helps Me To?**, I shared the fruits of my first payout in read.cash. It's been a tradition for me to use my earnings here to buy our stocks for at least 2-3 weeks. Aside from that, I fulfilled my goals to throw a simple celebrations for our birthdays, Holidays, and many more occasions. Also, my read.cash made AB's surgery a successful one. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/noisecash-and-readcash-helps-me-to-6ec1976d
What are the lessons that you learned in "READ CASH"?
read.cash had been playing a very significant role in my life. It made me a better person little by little. Got to interact and be friends with numerous people in many parts of the world. At the end, it made me learn so many things. To make it more specific, *read.cash had taught me on:*
**How to value money more than the thought of spending it.** As a striving blogger, I don't always have a smooth days here. Rusty sometimes visited my articles seldomly. In fact, I have here some articles that hadn't even reached a dollar. In my journey here, I learned on how to do budgeting more effectively. Be a bit thrifty coz earning money is not like counting 1, 2, 3. Spend more wiser and don't make money to flee so easily so I can also have backup when I needed it the most.
**How to handle myself, emotionally and mentally.** I am not a vocal person, when I am pissed or what, I always want it to keep in myself. Not until read.cash came into my life. As a breadwinner, I need and want to support our family even in the simplest ways. Even though I am not forced to, the pressure is still on it. In there, I am feeling mentally exhausted and there are a lot of times that I wanna have a breakdown. And, here's read.cash that openly said, "*come to me and shout it all here.*" 💓
**How to improve my way of thinking.** Before, I only aim to earn here. Then, when I got to stay here for a longer time, everything changed. read.cash is not just as my source of income but as a portal for new learnings and as a way for improving my mindset and views in life.

My Second Shopee Budol Purchase This 2022
Instead of asking who among here are fond of online shopping, let me just ask: **"Who among here isn't into online shopping?"**
*Storytelling*
Last 2019, I became more fond of purchasing items in Shopee. I mean, yes I do know its existence but I just felt like I don't want to use it in purchasing transactions. I had doubts, yes. As I might get scammed and more so, I do not have extra budget for it. Yah know, I'm poor. Hehe! But, aigooo~ when I got to begun ordering items in Shopee, it continued on the next months and years.
Since 2019-2021, I can't remember anymore how many times I did ordered in there. It's convenient, yes and we can shop for more products as the price is indeed more cheaper than those we can buy personally. Apparently, it became like an addiction. Yes, we can save but it can also push us to spend more. *Kasi nga mas mura* and we have more options. Plus those vouchers that offers discounts from various amount ranges.
So I made this goal for this 2022 to **shop less in Shopee and no to impulsive online shopping**. Maybe, like once a month? Or if I can be more thrifty, maybe not even once in a month. *Basta,* I should only make a budol purchase when it's really necessary.
First Shopee budol purchase in Shopee this 2022 ..
I ordered this items as per to Papa's favor. He told me to look for a men's belt for him and bro by the first week of January and so I did. To avail the free shipping voucher, I added this waterproof (*daw, hehe~*) LED women's watch and a belt for Mama.
It was then delivered by 01.10.22 and I didn't purchased anything after that. *Good job, self! :D*
And, here is my second Shopee budol purchase in Shopee this 2022 ..
**Had you still remember the achievements that I had unlocked this January and February 2022?**
*In my six semesters of pursuing my undergraduate degree, I got my two biggest achievements this month. First,* *I got to wear that black toga by 01.23.22* *and* *attended the Midyear Commencement Exercise last 02.14.22.* *💕* https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/that-much-awaited-black-toga-fa10fe67 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/another-achievement-unlocked-07b78b67
And as a gift for myself, I decided to finally check out this item in my Shopee cart. What is it? Tadaaa! A makeup set from one of my fave cosmetic brands, P⚡nkFlash. They have many variations to offer but I chose the **Christmas Red** that has 10 different products in only one set:
*Lipstick; honey blush; four different shades of lip gloss; beauty sponge; foundation; eyeliner, eyebrow pencil, and mascara.*
For just 366 pesos ($7.17) minus the shipping fee, I'll have this products in one package. And so, I also added a Stagenius prime pore minimizer. In total, I've paid Php 443.00 ($8.63).
It took 13 days after it was delivered to me and that's understandable coz it came from Mainland China *pa*. And the long wait is finally over as it what delivered to me by the afternoon of 02.22.22.
In the photo below, it was shown that the items are well-secured with this inflatable large bubble wrap. When I checked it, no dents are visible. Again, I was satisfied with their packaging.
**And, tadaaaa! Here's what inside the parcel. Come and take a look. 💛**
This is the list of products in this P⚡nkFlash makeup set:
Two (2) #OhMyKiss lipsticks (003 and PO1);
Two (2) #OhMyGloss (G02 and S03);
#OhMyHoney blush;
#OhMyPuff couples beauty sponge;
#OhMySelf foundation;
#OhMyLine eyeliner;
#OhMyEmoji eyebrow pencil; and
#OhMyWink mascara.
Included in the photo above is the *Stagenuis face primer pore minimizer* that I ordered along with the makeup set.
**Why did I ordered a makeup set even I don't know how to use it?**
*I have here four reasons why I purchased this items:*
**First,** my #OhMyGloss here will gonna run out after several days.
**Second,** I wanna start learning how to use these products coz I am already 21 but aigooo. I only know how to apply facial powder, lip gloss and tints.
**Third,** I don't want to borrow someone's things anymore especially that those are personal stuffs *pa*. And that I want to have these here so when I, we need it? We already have the things to use here at the house.
**Fourth,** I wanna glow-up *naaaaaaa.* Char~ but seriously, I need to coz our Professors told us to make ourselves more exquisite. That we should make other people see us more formal and to break the stigma that we, Agriculture students can't withstand with other students out there. ❤
And, that's it for today's blog. Hope you, guys and gals liked it. :)
I highly recommended their products and to those who wants to try it too, here are the links:

What Made Me Inactive These Days?
**Hello there, content creators and readers! :)**
How are you? It's been days, two days to be exact, of being a mushroom here in read.cash. Why *mushroom*? Simply because I had been popping in your notifications so suddenly, maybe about every after some hours? I don't know too, hehe. *Basta, pasulpot-sulpot ba.*
So, why? Why became like this? So inactive as compared to the previous days, especially last January. Two words to answer that "*why*", **classes** and **schoolworks**.
As you can remember, I kept saying that I ain't a stress-digger but a goal-digger. Well, that's really me in the real world. When things aren't that stressful and I shouldn't be stressed, I won't. If it is not my or our family's problem/s, I will not involve myself in those stressing situations. More so, I am also not fond of finding something that will just make me feel so weary and all. Who would be, right?
But then, my mind reminded me that I am still studying. That I am also living a life as a student who's currently taking her bachelor's degree, a struggling college student to be more specific. And as a student, "**stress**" is already curved in our vocabularies. It won't be missing, never! As it's already part of our lives either be studying or not and working or not.
The second semester starts by January 26 and after some days, our Professors also begun to give us tons of stressful assignments from activities to quizzes and all. So to answer the question as imposed in the title, **"what made me inactive these days?"** Just look at the attached photo below.
Yes, you read it right. Two words again, "**Google Classroom**." And, what is in there? Oh, I am wrong. It should be 'are' and not 'is'. Google Classroom is the platform that we've been using for years as the online classes was implemented. In there, the subjects we enrolled during the enrollment will be administered in the rooms created by our professors and instructors.
Aside from the rooms, professors and instructors, and classmates? There's this word that were powering and governing the said platform, **"assignments."** Aigoo~ when I am seeing this word, it seems like I am already traumatized. Huhuhu! Kidding, :D.
But seriously, it really made us sooo stressed. Say that you are not or else, I'll hit you. Kidding again, hihi! So, let's begin upon revealing what made me inactive here in read.cash and even in noise.cash these previous days.
Look at the photo below that I screenshot last February 18, 11:50PM. It is my to-do in Google Classroom and it was shown that I don't have any deadlines to meet by February's week 3 (02.13 to 02.19). How does this "zero (0)" made my heart stamped in so much hype? This is the only "zero" that I want to see these days.
And here's how it looks by Monday, 2:17PM of February 21.
The 5 dues by "next week" are now in "this week" category. Furthermore, as the clock ticks at 5:00AM onwards, the "this week" got refilled with **8 assignments**. Aigooo~ my notification was so alive during Mondays to Wednesday. Superbbb! It's look like my to-dos can't properly breathe anymore. T__T
And so, I really need to make a move after my so-called "no-to-academic-related-tasks during Saturdays." Coz, Monday is coming again and that's when my inactivity arise mooore. So, I chose to do the assignment which near to its deadline which is the Laboratory Report 1 in Mycology Lecture.
In here, there are 3 items to answer. And what took me to do for so long is the item #1 which was composed of drawings of plant diseases symptoms and their respective causal organisms under the Phylum Oomycota.
Begun with some pencil-sketching by the night of 02.20.22 (Sunday) at 8:22PM and finished it by past 12 midnight of 02.21.22. I continued it by the afternoon of that same day after I did a mini grocery shopping.
Spent more than five hours just to finish the inking and coloring of my drawings. At that time, my back and shoulders really hurts so much. Good thing that there's salonpas to rescue me. Hihi! And, here it is.
I decided to colored the plant parts showing the diseases symptoms to visualize it more. And, to not color the causal organisms. Though, it's not the final output *pa* as I still need to add write-ups in it.
By 9:43PM, tadaaa! I already finished it. FINALLYYYY! And, here is the fruit of by shoulders and back pains and for being inactive 2 days and so. 💓
See that *Albugo sp.*? The one with lots of circles. Omooo! I so love this one and found it really and absolutely cuuuute! 😍 And uyyy~ I didn't cheat upon doing it like printing it out then *bakat-bakatin na lang* after. I can't even though I want to! And, I'm so happy and satisfied with what I did.
I captured a photo of it and inserted it in my report. After that, I go to bed and will just continue the "questions to answer" by the next day. So, fastforward! By 12:07PM of 02.22.2022, I finally and successfully turned it in before its deadline by 11:59PM today.
So glad that I had able to lessen my workloads lining up in GClassroom. From 5 dues last 02.21, tadaa! It's now down to just **3**. 👏🏻
But sadly, the assignments due by next week rose up from **8 to 11**.
Huhuhu! *Ang bigattttt!* I'm kinda pissed to those who kept giving assignments even its not their schedule to do so and that they already given lots of workloads last week that we aren't finished yet coz they're really heavy to do. Hmp! *Mga walang pakundangan!* >.< Char! How I hope that what other people say about BS Agriculture are all true. Like it's "*tanim-tanim lang*." *Sana nga talaga hano?*
But still, let's do this! I wanted this course degree, major and specialization ever since SHS. So let's get it on and for sure, I can survive these remaining semesters without me going crazy. Just follow your rules, self. And be disciplined, as well. Okay?
Like what Ate @Jeaneth said, "Para sa future!" Good luck, my future Plant Pathologist. Grind more and be a Licensed Agriculturist, soonest! :*

I Lost My Pega So Soon
Play-to-Earn Games or simply P2E Games ...
It's been a trend for over so many years. There are so many P2E Games out there such as the DOTA, Mobile Legends, Clash of Clans up to the Axie Infinity. And now, we have a new game that most of us had been playing or wanted to play. This is the **Pegasus Galaxy** or shortly, **Pegaxy** which is classified as a racing game. In here, we, the players will race our *Pega* (the horses) with other 11 pegas from other players. And, will then compete for the 3 placements such as the *1st place* (gold), *2nd place* (silver), and *3rd place* (bronze) to earn token VIS (Vigorous).
`Ps. I still don't know that much about here and that I am in the process of learning pa so I won't spill additional ones. I'm afraid that I might spread some fake news.`
Just like Axie Infinity and AxieBCH, we can also apply for scholarship from those managers that are gonna accept applicants. In my case, I applied at Chad's P3 Racing Guild together with Ate @Pachuchay, Ate @Eybyoung, Ate @Yen, and @charmingcherry08. Although, they got in and their pega more earlier than me.
And just yesterday, 02.18.22, I became an official Pegaxy scholar under Chad's P3 Racing and I got it from Sir Poopster. How does that sounds ey? Soooo nakakakilig! 🥳
Actually, it wasn't the first time that I was called out. By February 15, around 10:49PM, Sir 'Hello Blursday' was buzzing me. Due to my unresponsive gesture, my gals such as Carisdaneym, immerryandmary, Ate Eybyoung, and Cherry had been messaging me both in Telegram and Facebook messenger. But there's still no reply from me as I was already sleeping that time so it was given to another applicant and I need to wait again. Well, that's fine. And just yesterday, Sir Poopster begun to call me by 5:06PM as he will give me two pega but again, I responded way too late. Luckily, it wasn't given to other and I still got those two pega.
**Now, let me introduce them, my horsies. 🐎**
The first one is **Pega Go Brrrrrrr** which is a he and was bred from Zan. Though, it still had 4% speed and 0% win rate.
While the other one is **Sloppy Sounds**, a male horsie. More so, it also has 0% win rate and a speed of 0%. In that, I am aware that it'll be a tough start for me. And, I somehow saw that 0%s as a challenge and I'm right. In my first races, I hadn't even reached the rank 5 and up but just with 10th to 12th. However, it doesn't remains like that. Within my fourth race using Pega Go Brrrrrrr, I fortuitously got into the 4th place. Yey!
Furthermore, here is the highest rank with 7th place that I've reached with Sloppy Seconds.
By 6:56PM on that very same day, I had my first silver on my 7th attempt of racing. Followed by my second silver and first gold (1st place) around ten o'clock in the evening.
On the next day, I woke up around past 7AM coz I was sleep deprived on the last night. Being on the 4th place is really a good start for my races that day and was then followed by lower places.
Still, I pursue having another matches after wins and losses. And, look! I got two straight golds within my 5th and 6th races. Wieee! Then, I got another gold around past 8AM.
In the photo above is my first bronze for racing it since the last afternoon and I got it when I raced before I had my lunch.
**As a Pegaxy scholar, I must do these things to be able to secure my pega and increase my shares.**
*Race the pega given to me.*
*Don't let the energy to exceed at 20 and so.*
*Interact and be active in Discord for two weeks.*
And sadly, I unfortunately failed to do these things. As the title imposed, I lost my pega. Specifically, Sloppy Seconds. Now, I only have Pega Go Brrrrrrr.
For what reasons? I failed to race it and drain the energies for it to exceed by 20. In addition, my manager was calling me out again in Discord and I respond too late, one more time. My reason? I was busy with my assignment in Basic Biotechnology that I got to forgot that I have another grind to take. I know that my reason is argh but I won't blame that matter coz I, myself is the one at fault.
That time, I felt so down and demotivated especially when I got to see that "such a shame" words. It was just maybe a language barrier why I felt down with these words. Yes, I felt so shameful with what happened even until now. Maybe, *nasobrahan ako sa excitement before*? Haha~ but instead of thinking and being at this state, I therefore used it as my inspiration to keep going and improve myself more to perform better and greater.
Thank you to my Ate @Usagi whom I got to talked to last night when I am at the moment. 💜
*And, these are what I've got in the next few hours of racing.*
**4 golds and silvers, 2 bronzes.**
Within those wins, I successfully increased my winning rate from 0% to 25%, as of 1:56PM.
Moreover, I am trying all my very best to teach myself to be active in the Discord channels so that slowly, I will get used to it until it became my routine as well. Maybe not like I am monitoring it all the time, but at least be active every now and then.
From now on, I'll exert more time and effort and be more responsible with my grinds. I don't want to lose my remaining pega and I don't want to be a disappointed and be a shame to my fellow hustlers especially those who know my real identity. So, self? Let's do this. Push it more, okay? :)

Rules For Myself During The Semester
Semesters ...
These are how we, college students define the quarters or terms in every academic year. In each A.Y., it comprises of two semesters such as the **first semester** and **second semester**. Wherein we need to suffer, I mean to take for every five months which makes it to over 10 months. And, we agreed that second semester was indeed more tougher as compared to the first one. Who among you were not agree to it? Please do raise your feet. :D
In our university, the opening of classes for second semester is January 24 but was then moved to January 26 as per to the revised Academic Calendar. I was so happy upon receiving that news. But apparently, it slowly fades when our Professors and Instructors begun to give requirements.
In the photo below, it was the last moment that I got to see my Google Classroom's to-dos without activities scattered onto it. Oh, I will surely miss this "**You have no assigned work right now.**" When will I see you again *kaya*? Huhu!
And also this one, "**No work coming up immediately.**" This screenshot was taken a few minutes before I received my first assignment. *Buti na lang talaga, at least may remembrance 'nung panahon na 'di pa ako stressed.* HAHAHA!
And, hey! The one month and eight days vacation had really come to its end. Aigoo! I will miss having my vacay, so muchhh! How could I say it? Tadaaa! Coz the buena mano or the first assignment for second semester had finally posted.
Of course, the semester won't be complete without having piles and unending requirements. Here's how my to-dos looks like this morning of 02.17.2022 when I saw it at exactly 4:39AM. Last night, I only have 10 assignments to do as I got to accomplish one yesterday. And aigoo, it became **17** *na*. Additional seven tasks are added and it's from our subject about agricultural laws and development.
**My mind was like this emoji after I did some skimming this morning:** 🤯
Good thing that I got to finally lessened it by submitting two school works today, a quiz in Mycology (due by 02.21.22, Monday) and my infographic in CPROT 3200: Beneficial Arthropods and Microorganisms or BAM (due by 02.18.22, Friday). What is BAM? It's our subject for Entomology. And, I can sense that I will be more stressed in this subject compared to Mycology and Phytonematology. *Awitttt!* T__T
To avoid being too exhausted and stressed? I must bring back the rules that I set for myself last semester. Coz basically, I don't want to get physically, mentally, and emotionally drained again just like how I used to be last year. Of course, health should always be prioritized first. 💙
*So, what are these rules? Here:*
One activity every day.
This is to motivate myself to be academically-productive in each days. Yah know, my lazy spirit was always at my side 24/7. So, I must not tolerate it or else I will be doomed. And worst, I will be facing and be worn-out with piles of works. And, guess what? I luckily submitted two school works today which made the number of my to-dos to dropped at **15**. Oh, how I hope that I can be productive in this matter everyday.
No-to-academic-related-tasks on Saturdays.
Of course, we must not abuse ourselves from doing our school requirements every day or it will lead us from minor to serious health problems. In short, we seems to be trading our health for our studies. And, it's a no-no for me. I know that studying is a must but we don't want to be crazy *naman siguro hano*? Hehe~ So every Saturday, I won't and must not do any tasks related to academics. More like, it will be my so-called "**day-off**". In addition, I will allot it for backtracking my siblings' school works and to have more time to do my grinding in blogging.
Go-to-bed-before-11PM.
In this rule, I must set aside my assignment on or before the clock ticks at 11PM. Even though, I'm about half of the activity. It's a must ey~ coz sleeping too late will affect our brain negatively. Especially when it often happens. And oh my goodness, this is the rule that I found so hard to obey. As in! Specially when I was so engrossed doing my ongoing assignment? I always forgot to look at the time and I will end up going to bed by past 11PM. And not to mention that I'll still allocate some minutes to hours for my last wave of grinding in noise.cash and read.cash. In short, I'll be sleep-deprived.
Always take my vitamin C.
I've been taking vitamin C, specifically the Poten-Cee, since I don't know when. I should take this everyday for me to feel energized and healthy especially that I got to be sleep-deprived and stressed, too. I wanna shift or add Enervon to my vitamins and I'll do it once that my Poten-Cee had ran out. Any suggestions for other vitamin C?
And, that's it! Hoping that I could follow all these rules most of the time. I don't to suffer like before, as in. It's so difficult to handle but thankfully, I managed to achieve it previously. *Sana ngayon ulit*~ maybe, you can get ideas from those rules of mine.
Let's do our best to accomplish each of our academic requirements, no backlogs or anything to worry about. But, we must prioritize our health more than anything else. Okay? :)

Another Achievement, Unlocked!
Achievements ...
A simple word that is so easy to pronounce, yet so hard to accomplish. Why, oh why? Simply because life wasn't a facile to everyone of us.
*To begin with, what is "achievement" for us?* Is it those goals that we got to unlocked? Is it these things and blessings that are being showered to us, unexpectly? Or maybe, both? What do you think?
In my life, I would admit that I've been living with those goals running inside my mind. Why? First, I am not living into a grandiose life. Second, I need to strive and thrive. Lastly and most important above all, I don't want to be sucked into this kind of life if I know that there's a better one waiting for me. And of course, I'll bring my family to that life. Successful, stable, and less worries and stress.
Furthermore, I think this year of 2022 will be the real start of making those goals happen. Hopefully~ But, how could I say it?
If you can remember, I shared last January 20 in my noise.cash post (https://noise.cash/post/1rg0q05j) that I had received a very meaningful and a shocking news. What is it? I'm about to wear that black toga! 👨🏻🎓 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/im-gonna-wear-that-black-toga-a-shocking-news-0e6dbdae
Imagine my shocked face? And, how my mind was astonished? Oh, I can't properly describe it. And, how about when I finally got to wear that black toga? OMG! My mind seems to be so overwhelmed as I really don't know how to visualize the feeling. But here's these one words to define the moment, "**magical**" and "**nostalgic**." https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/that-much-awaited-black-toga-fa10fe67
Just think of it, I am just a mere, struggling-and-stressed third year college student and yet I am bound to wear that black toga that most of us were dreaming to wear. And, tadaaa! This made me feel moooore joyful and proud to what I got to endure for more than three years of struggling and all.
I was so excited for the CAS Graduation. But, I thought that it will just be a simple ceremony to commemorate our achievement. On the contrary, I am wrong. CAS Graduation will be by February 14th, in the conjunction with the 31st Mid-year Commencement Exercises of our university.
Yes, I don't have a date or even don't received any gift in the Valentine's Day. And yes again, because I am a single lady. Even so, I got to have a more better gift that I'll cherish until I don't know when. Maybe, in my whole life. Unlike the flowers that will wilt, the chocolates to run-out. But, it's the thought that counts.
Last February 14, the **31st Mid-year Commencement Exercises** of our beloved Alma Mater had happened.
Until this point, I can still hear how the Dean of Admissions' voiced out my name at the beginning of the program, as well as to my academic achievement. And our College Dean, too. Mama was beside me that time and when I was called out, she proudly said, "**anak ko 'yan!"** (Cc: "That's my child!") I was so touched, Mama. Especially when Papa kissed my head and uttered, "**congratulations, anak.**" ❤
It was just a certificate, what more if I graduate and got that college diploma? For sure, they will cry too.
As you can remember, I shared this photo below in this article. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/congratulations-for-what-d7c88618
With a short caption of:
See that "**Castro**" in number 16? Hey, that's me. 💕 And, yes. I'm one of the student applicants for CAS Graduation with a distinction of **Academic Honors**, "*with honors*" to be more specific.
And yes, I am a graduate of Certificate of Agricultural Science and one of the "With Honors" holders of our batch. Ranked as #16 out of the 22 top students of our course. Imagine, we are a hundred in the batch and I got to be here? That's ah! Really unexpected and jaw dropping. But still, I am so thankful. So much!
The acknowledgement of the students with a distinction of 'With Honors' was from the rank of #22 to the candidate that has the highest GPA which is the President in our specialization, Plant Pathology. *Ang witty nito, promise!* And for sure, we will be guarded by the Professors out there as the candidates for Cum Laude. *Awittt! Kahit 'di na mag-cum laude, bast ba ga-graduate on time.* But if it's God's will, who am I to say 'no'? 💓
After the graduates (from Doctoral, Master, Bachelors, and CAS) was all acknowledged, I decided to post my achievement in Facebook. With a caption of,
**"Certificate, now. College diploma, soonest. 💚"**
I am not a type of Facebook user that's fond of posting, shared posts *mana pa.* Hehe~ and as of now, I got here: **136 reactions**, **57 comments**, and **1 share**. Not bad for posting after a year or more. XD
Because we are so busy that very same day, we just decided to celebrate it on the next day. Which is by 02.15.2022. And so, I woke up more earlier to start and finish the morning chores immediately. After the chores, I prepared to go to the city proper to buy the ingredients for the presents.
Before 10AM, we arrived at the city proper where our market was. I am with my younger sister and our Papa who drove as there, back and forth. As we got to buy the ingredients, I and sis go to the most famous Pancit Malabon store to eat our snack. And just had take-outs for our parents and bro.
Next stop, to the nearest Goldilocks store to have my cake. And, I got the one showing in the photo below (right side).
In the next hours, I was occupied with the preparations of the ingredients and cleaning the mess at the house. We have here:
*Classic Filipino spaghetti*;
*A Goldi cake; and*
*Lumpiang shanghai* as per to @carisdaneym2's request. It's a ready-made coz my budget is tight, hihi.
And I was so glad that my long-time friends are able to come even though they are also busy with their life and classes.
It was so obvious that we are indeed a "*puyaters*." Our eyebags tells it all, haha. Especially Trix, the girl beside me. *Ngarag na sa pagiging Civil Engineering student. 🙈* And on the third photo, that's me and the legendary cutie mushroom, Carisdaneym2.
Sharing a solo picture of me awhile ago with my *handa* and please do excuse my arm. As I said in noise.cash, *pambarog po talaga 'yan*. LOL!
After the eating session, we goes to the city proper to extend our bonding time. It's once in a blue moon, so better yet make the fun out of it. ❣
And, that's it for today's sharing of moments. Thank y'all for reading my blog! :)
Self, I'm so proud of you! You've got to unlocked another achievement and there's more to go along the way. Just wait for a bit of time and be more patient and in no time, you'll surely and finally be a bachelor's degree holder. PADAYON! ✊🏻

My Best Character Traits That I Adore So Much
It's been a long time since I last written an article for a giveaway here in read.cash. My first time to join was from Ate Florie Mae's writing contest when she turned 21 last December 2020 wherein I got a dollar as a reward.
Now, I'm here in front of my laptop and composing another article as my entry for @carisdaneym2's birthday giveaway as she announced it in this article, **Sharing $50 and 10 NFTs for my 21st Birthday Celebration** . https://read.cash/@carisdaneym2/sharing-50-and-10-nfts-for-my-21st-birthday-celebration-ca2e76a8
In the instructions, we may either answer one of the questions below or even all of it:
**What do you see as your best character trait?**
**What mistake did you learn the most from?**
**What is the most important thing in a relationship?**
For my blog, I will answer one out of the three questions. That's for now and I'll just write another article for the two remaining questions. And, let's start it now.
**What do you see as your best character trait?**
Everyone of us has our own distinct and unique characteristics. But, I won't carry my own chair just to flaunt that I am good at all the things and aspects or to shortly state that "**I am perfect.**" Because basically, I am not. I'm one of the billion of humans out there that is full of flaws. Yes, I am imperfect and I do proudly admit that.
Despite of being an imperfect type of lady, I still do my very best just to enhance the traits that I have right now. I may not get it so perfectly but I am willing to do not just settle in that way. If I can improve my characteristics especially those bad sides of me, then why shouldn't I?
*First, what are some of those traits that I considered as "not that good ones?"*
**I am sometimes a "short tempered" lady.** Yes, I can hold my temper for a longer time but not at all times. There are also a lot of instances that I easily became so pissed, irritated, or what. May it be for a major reasons or a minor ones. Maybe it's a mood swings or my hormones that are doing the changes of mood or attitude.
**I'm a bit of dictator.** It applies to my younger sister, I often command her on what she should do and how would she move as a fine lady. There's so many "don'ts" as I want her to look so respectful and all. Like to sit properly as she shouldn't spread her legs, her way of talking, etcetera. In short, *bawal galawgaw*.
**Fan of procrastination.**
However, here's these three traits of mine that I really adore so much. What are they?
Being an optimist type of person.
Life is full of both blessings and challenges. Problems are just one of the many challenges of life. Well, life won't be completed without them. We, as a family do face a lot of problems. We do encountered small problems to a huuuge ones. May it be a relationship conflicts like misunderstandings and up to financial matters.
But instead of being so problematic about those things, I always choose to look at the brighter sides. That it will all be solved and I can just smile while reminiscing how I, we overcome those life's challenges. For me, I don't want to make our situation more harder to solve. It will just stress me out so much that can eventually make my mind not able to come up with ideas on how to manage those problems. It will be more better if those problems will be the one to be problematic that I don't get problematic with them. Awts! Is it complicated to understand? HAHA! To translate it in Filipino, *mas maganda nang mga problema ang mamroblema kasi 'di ko sila gaanong iniisip.* :D Like what I usually said, "**I'm not a stress-digger but a goal-and-peace-digger.**" 💛
Open-mindedness.
Are you a pure type of person? I mean, not a green minded one. In short, an innocent one. Coz I am not, hehe. Yes, I have this color green mind just like what my Ate @Ruffa have. XD But, I like it more to call myself as an "*open-minded lady*" than a green-minded one.
When I am reading a Wattpad stories or watching a foreign movies, I like it more to be romantic or erotic. Yes, not because I am "that" kind of person but I am more comfortable in these genres. I find it cliche or corny to watch movies and read articles that are in a genres of teen-fic wherein a boy and girl will fell in love and the rest is history. Also, there are more lessons in romantic and erotic genres.
In addition, in the course that I have, we shouldn't think of anything when our Professor mentioned any sensitive parts of an animals and plants or their genitals, how they mate, how their offsprings had been produced, anything. When they said v@g!n@ or p€n!$ and their reproductive cells ($p€rm$ and €gg c€ll$), we shouldn't think with malice. Just purely for the sake of our lessons.
Protector of my peace of mind.
Above all of the things that I wanna protect, it's my **inner peace*****.*** I'm doing all that I can in order to protect it from being ruined from anyone. May it be my friends, people in my surroundings, or even my family. I will protect it at all cost coz if not, I will be doomed.
All done with my entry! Hope that my friend and y'all will like it. 🌼
Coz Car's birthday was already done days ago, lemme just share one of our photos together during her day.
We're so cutie, right? :D
Anyways, will like to tag bb @charmingcherry08 in this giveaway. I don't know if she can make it as it's already a last-minute call. But, let's see.

Grocery Shopping + Manhunting
"As an adult, what makes you happy?"
When we are still a kid or a teen, we got to be happy so easily with so many little things. Such as toys and playmates, gadgets, foodies like junk foods and candies, and even crushes.
But as we grow old, our preferences and basis of happiness do changed continuously. And, it was just like me. Before, I kept on asking and even begging our parents to buy me a toys when I was a kid and gadgets when I turned into a teenager. Yah know, peer pressure and the eagerness to fit in into a modernized society. Glad that it changed and I was not able to be stuck in there~
**Now, what makes me happy?**
These things can bring out the joyfulness within me and which I also considered as my "*happy pills*."
The fact that I can be productive and profitable in every passing days and this is what I referred to as "**2Ps**."
Providing for some of the family's basic necessities and wants.
Supporting my and my siblings' studies without asking our parents for some hard cash.
Treating myself with self-love, care, appreciation, and satisfying my needs and wants.
Most specially, living into a more peaceful and cheerful life. In short, having that peace of mind and living.
Aside from this intangible ones, these can also captivate the smiles in my face and uplift my lively spirit.
Organized stuffs, clean room and surrounding, tidy bed, silence.
Foods and healthy relationships with our family, friends, and other people.
And as an adult, there is this certain task that made me feel so alive and joyful. It's tiring, yes. But, the satisfaction that it can give to me? That's indescribable.
In this recent article, I mentioned this certain goal that I wanna achieve every month which is to shop for our stocks at home that can prolong up to at least 2-3 weeks. What is it? None other than, **grocery shopping**. 🛒 And, it's been almost a month since I last did it. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-thursday-a-day-for-my-monthly-goal-f1875f98
Today was two days away before it turned into a month of having those stocks and we just ran out of such items about 2-3 days ago. And since I will go to the city proper to submit my brother's learning materials for Quarter 2, I decided that it's the time to do another series of grocery shopping.
**How did I funded it?**
I withdrawn PHP 4000.00 ($78.06) wherein most of it was from my scholarship allowance (yes, *may natitira pa din* 'til now. Hehe!) and I also converted 0.1 BCH from my hodlings to add some on it.
After I finished my agenda to bro's school, I along with my younger sister go to the biggest supermarket in our town. It's gonna be my sister's first time to enter the vicinity after more than 2 years of being stuck in our home. I prohibit her *kasi* even though the establishments already allowed them to go in.
Since she just go there again today, I told her to go and get the snacks that she wants. And, that's what she did. Though, most are kinda pricey but go. It's once in a blue moon *naman*.
After roaming around the supermarket, here's what we got. Two baskets that are full of foods and toiletries. As you can see, that boxes of Nido are for our cousin. *Pinasabay na bilhin*, hehe.
After that, we proceeded to the food park to buy some snacks and to the wet market for our viand for the dinner. And, here they all are. At the end of the errand, I got two boxes and some brown papers.
When we arrived at home, I just rest for some minutes and fight *na agad* to organize the stocks in the racks.
**How do I organize the stocks in the racks?** Here's how:
*1st layer:* Snacks and drinks.
*2nd layer:* Coffees, condiments, and seasonings.
*3rd layer:* Noodles.
*4th layer:* Canned goods.
And, this is the layer that can really make my heart to jump in contentment. Sarap sa eyes, uyyy. 💓
More so, here's another space (our bread keeper container) that I filled with snacks and several sweets. This is where I and my sibs get along with mooore~ **sweets**.
Of course! Facemasks, hand sanitizers, and alcohol won't be absent in my list. That KN95 masks are just for myself. I am more comfty and can breathe more easily in there *kasi* compared to surgical (or non-medical) masks.
Why there's a "manhunting" word in my title?
Coz I got to see so many handsome and hotties out there. First is my crushie that works in Friendship as a part-timer. He's about my age or maybe 1-2 years older than me. *Grabidad, 'yung mga ugat sa braso n'ya* and his voice and scent? Accck! It's so manly. Been eyeing him since around September 2021 *pa.* Sssshhh! Hope that Ate @Ruffa will get to see him too, chars~
Last are those group of criminology students sitting in one of the dine-in spots in a stall in the food park. Amp~ *basta, nagha-heart si eyes ko kanina.* Hihi!
Though, it's not really a "manhunting." But, that's the thought. Ah, *ewan.* HAHA!
Here is me, leaving this words from my article "**My Thursday: A Day For My Monthly Goal**": https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-thursday-a-day-for-my-monthly-goal-f1875f98
Like what this post had said, **"You know you're an adult when a trip to a grocery store makes you happy..."**

*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.*

Securing My Scholarships
Second semester of Academic Year 2021-2022 had already started about two weeks ago. On the first week, students are still able to chill and not to be stressed out as they are just asking as to submit a copy of our Certificate of Registration or Form 6 and a Student Pledge Form. But apparently, it wasn't the same on the second week.
Accck! Course orientations are eating most of our time and don't even dare to say that "it was just an orientation." Because no. Aigoo~ they are already giving us the requirements like the thesis outline, term papers, Philosophical papers, posters, name it.
It was just the second week of the semester but I think that I am near to be burn out already. Hayst! In fact, I am finding it a bit challenging to juggle up my responsibilities at home, taking care of our cutie 'lil cousin, my studies, guiding my sibs in their studies, and my side hustles. And upon feeling this difficulties, would you believe that dropping out and to stop pursuing my degree course had been in my mind for some times? Yes, I do. Yes, I am tough but not at all times. However, I will still finish this. *Nasimulan ko na eh*~ *ngayon pa ba ako hihinto kung kailan nakalayo na ako?*
One of the many reasons why I am still here, pursuing this course that some people defined as all about "*tanim-tanim lang*" is my **scholarships**. If I will drop out or stop studying, seems like the efforts and hard-smart works that I've exerted upon applying to this scholarships will be taken for granted. So, push.
In this article, **I Got Another S!**, I had shared that I applied to six different scholarship programs before I begun taking the first year of college level. In there, I blessedly and successfully qualified on two of them. Such as in the **Vicente B. Bello Scholarship Program (VBBSP)** which was funded by a well-known private company (shoe and clothing line) in the Philippines and the other one is from the **Local Government Unit (LGU)**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/i-got-another-s-7b2b1918
Meanwhile, I had mentioned in this article, **Perks Of Being A Scholar: It Enables Me To?**, that I got blessed to have a +1 to the scholarships that I granted. And, tadaa! As of this moment, I am enjoying **4 scholarship programs**. Sssshhh! Then for me to secure them, I must not have any failing grades such as the 4 (Incomplete), 5 (Failed), Dropped or Force Dropped, and that "No Grades". If I successfully avoid this remarks in my COG, I need to renew them every semesters to gratify and avail the priveleges. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/perks-of-being-a-scholar-it-enables-me-to-46ec4e88
Among the four of them, I must renew the two scholarships such as the VBBSP and under the LGU.
VBBSP Renewal
Every semesters, from first to second and even up to the Midterm Summer Classes (if there's any), we must renew it with the assistance of our Officer-In-Charge in our university's Office of Admissions. Then, the Dean of OAd will review it before sending it to the company's Director and President for another reviewing. *Ang kuriri hano?* Hehe~ our requirements for renewal was consists of:
*Certificate of Grades* from the previous semester;
*Certificate of Registration* (present semester);
*Certification*, if there's an IP or NG remarks; and
*Appeal Letter* for those who has failed grades.
Since that I have an IP (In-Progress), I requested for a certification from my thesis adviser that it's not a failed grade. I attached the certification along with my COG and COR and sent it right away to our OIC. And by February 06, I got to renew it.
And, here's my requirements that I emailed to our OIC for the initial reviewing.
Just this morning, our OIC announced this in our group chat. So, I messaged her that I already emailed my requirements for the renewal.
I, we felt more blessed when our OIC also sent this message in our group chat. Actually, it was in our contract that we'll also get clothing benefits from dresses to shoes and bags every semester but sadly, pandemic happens and the company find it difficult to transport the package to us. And, wieee! We'll have it again *daw ulit*.
City Government Scholarship Program
Like the one in VBBSP, I've been enjoying this scholarship ever since in first year (first semester). In fact, I messaged @kingofreview regrading this one so he can apply *sana*. But, they won't accept applicants *daw muna sa ngayon.*
In here, I need to comply this set of requirements:
*Certificate of Grades* from the previous semester;
*Certificate of Registration* (present semester);
*Two Endorsement Letters* from Barangay Chairman and PELA Chairman.
And just yesterday, I got to renew it before the deadline arrives which is by Friday, next week. I submitted it to the PESO Office outside the grounds of our Municipal Hall.
And, tadaaaa! Got to secured two of my scholarships. Wieee~ say "Hello!" to more than PHP 20K ($388.95+) allowance from them for this semester. 💓
As I had this 'lil accomplishment, I treated myself and the fam with this foodies. I deserved this eyyy~
*Shared in this post in noise.cash:* https://noise.cash/post/1xg0jx04
*As a scholar, it's my responsibility to take good care of my grades. So that I can enjoy them until I graduate. Those are indeed a very big help to us, students who are striving to hard especially in financial matters. It's not easy to do so but we can do this.*
FIGHTING, STUDENTS!
FIGHTING, FUTURE SOMETHING! 💛

Another sponsor of mine had renewed her sponsorship to me. Thank yah, bb @Sequoia! 🌻 Until next month ulit, :D.
What Am I Looking For My Future Man?
**February ...** or this what we also called as the "**love month.**"
Is the most anticipated month for all the couples out there. Why? Simply because it is when *Valentine's Day* was being celebrated. Couples who are romantically in loved with each other are so excited for this day, February 14 to come.
Couples are looking forward for them to go on a more intimate and special date with either of a matching candle-light dinner, chocolates and flowers, teddy bears and other stuff toys, jewelries, name it. Especially those teens, omooo. Valentine's Day are indeed a big deal to them that they go so bitter and sort of *sawi* when they still have no *jowa* days before this day arrives. Well, it's also applicable to the adults who are still single even when they are already in their mid-twenties. Just like Ate @Ruffa, haha!
Aside from the couples, sellers of many love products such as chocolates, flowers, and teddy bears are also agitated. Higher sales are coming ey~
I've known so many single ladies here like Ate @Jane, Ate @esciisc, Ate Florie (@Eirolfeam2), and more to mention. And to my frennies here that are so engrossed with academics and hustling that Valentine's Day had been just an ordinary day for them. Hi, Pres @immaryandmerry, mushy @carisdaneym2, mare @CrazyRichFilipina, bb @Sydney2. Of course, to myself. Hihi~ yes, I'm a proud single here. *Payaman na lang tayo,* gals so that men will run after us *na lang* when we are already successful in life*.* Kidding! XD
But, hey! This gals right here are so lucky to have their man on their sides, supporting and loving them at all means. Hello to Ate @Jeaneth, @Pachuchay, @Usagi, @Kelzy, and bb @Sequoia. Share your ritual *naman uyyy~*
Apparently, this is not our topic here. That's just a brief (?) introduction. Well, if that is really a "brief" one. So, what will we talk in here? Here:
"What Am I Looking For My Future Man?" or simply, my standards for men.
Most of us, or should I say all (?), has our sets of standards when it is about that what we refer to as "*the one*." Say that you don't have any standards to men or women, *dadagukan talaga kita*. LOL!
I admit that I am not a member of "*No Boyfriend Since Birth*" or short for NBSB anymore. In fact, I already have a numbers of ex-boyfriends when I was in Junior High School. Yah know, typical teenager who's so aggressive and hook in terms of being in a relationship. And, would you believe that most of them was not for real? I mean, not meeting them personally. Yes, most of them was just a "phone or chat boyfriends." Hehe, ssshhh! That's my secret that I am really shy of. Just realized that *ang ano ko pala dati*. Well maybe, a part was due to the peer pressure but most was on myself.
Okay, enough with this. As I get aged, what I want for my future man to have had slowly changed until I only wanted a serious one and not to have a "many" of them in a certain period of time. I don't want to have a famous boyfriend nor a super duper rich one that has the capabilities to spoil me so much, just like what the society usually look for.
**Aside from being loyal and faithful, full of respect, man of his words, what I also want for my future man to have are:**
**A soft but definitely a tough heart.**
As a lady, yes, I am also a bit after the looks. But, not just with it. I am more on the character that he has. Why not just only base on the physical attributes? I ain't a lady will overflowing charm and beauty, so I won't ask for more if I know I am not getting it to the high level. I want him to have a good character and not just a pretty face. A kind and softy heart but definitely has a strong one that can face all the difficulties of life. Either alone or with me.
**Positive and a great mindset.**
Nowadays, some of the boys or man out there has a different mindset from what we, girls has. I want my future man to have the mindset, same to what I have. A positive and a great one so that we can jive with each other, more and more.
**Understanding but not an UNDER.**
As you know, I am the breadwinner of our family. I have this heavy baggage on my shoulders that I want, and not just to should, carry upon until I became successful. And, I am aware that I want it to be like this when I get older and had built my own family. And, I want him to understand that.
Aside from that, I want him to try to understand me and the attitude that I have wherein I'll also try my very best to do the same to him. Yah know, I have flaws too. I'm a silent nagger, as well. But, I only want him to be understanding and not an UNDER coz I further want him to feel free and to enjoy his freedom with him knowing his limits.
**Resourceful and hard-smart working one.**
As I said, I don't just want my man to have a pretty face or even not that pretty one. This days, life is getting more harder to get through. So, why would I choose a man that just have a pretty face but a certified "lazy?" In addition, I'm looking for a man that was not a dependent to his parents or siblings or simply not a "Mama's or Papa's boy." I want him to be knowledgeable in life coz if he happens to be a dependent one? For sure, conflicts with the in-laws are really possible to occur. And, I don't want that. I want our relationships to be smooth, *sawa na ako sa mga conflicts uy.*
**Has a dream to pursue and achieve.**
Most specially, I want a man that has a dream and a persevere one that will do everything to just be successful. Either he came from scratch or what, I want him to have this kind of goal to be a successful man. Am I looking for a rich one? Maybe yes, coz that's an easy and fast journey for me. No need to face so many challenges or what but no. I love it more if we will become successful, or better yet get rich, together. *Mas solid kapag ganoon~*
What do you think? Does he exists *kaya*? Or will I get to meet someone like what I had described above? Either ways, I'll wait. Who knows, maybe he was just somewhere out there. Waiting for me, too. 🧡

<What Am I Looking For My Future Man?>
Published by February 07, 2022
Reason Why I'm Aiming For At Least 5 BCH
**Bitcoin Cash** or simply "**BCH**" ...
This is the token that's powering these two awesome blogging platforms, read.cash and noise.cash, that we are engaging ourselves at. Though, this are not just the sites or platforms that was run by BCH as it keeps upon growing and growing this days.
All of us has our respective set of reasons why we are so determined and persistent in pushing our lucks in blogging. Let's admit it or not, **earnings** is the main objective why we are here. When I started my journey in noise.cash and read.cash last January 2021 as a mere newbie, what I only have in mind is **to earn, earn, earn**. In my first month, that's where I just focused. Why? As I am saying repetitively, I am a struggling college student and let's say, a breadwinner of our family too. So when I was given a chance to earn for free and without obligating me to go out, I grabbed it coz I am in a deep situation of needing any other financial support. Not just for me, but for our family. A breadwinner indeed ey?
But, it changed and I am glad of that. I can't imagine myself hustling in here with this kind of purpose of just earning. In my next months in noise.cash, interacting with many users with different origins but almost the same goals and mindset, I can say that I am slowly growing more and more. I don't just simply aim for the BCH earnings, perhaps for the enjoyment, self-improvement, growing mentally and even emotionally, and building a solid camaraderie as well. Nonetheless, the thought of earning is still there. It won't be forgotten and I will be a hypocrite if I shout to this virtual world that I'm not interested with the earnings anymore. Why? I am still experiencing financial unsteadiness. So, will continue blogging as long as this kind of blogging platforms are still with us.
I changed. The kind of mindset that I have before eloped, vanished, and changed. Now, I'm treating these platforms as my "**public-diary**" which is open for my co-content creators and readers but a secret to my family. In short, it's my **private space** just like my room.
Like any other users here, I am also aiming to unlock that **1 BCH** and join the Club1BCH. And luckily, I had my first 1 BCH last 11.07.2021. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/finally-i-successfully-unlocked-my-first-1bch-7a8576fa
Almost a month after I unlocked my first 1 BCH goal, became one of the members of #Club1BCH by 12.04.2021 as per Ate @Jane's invitation. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/hello-club1bch-797d89cc
After I achieved my first ever 1 BCH, I proceeded to aim for another one. What is it? **To hit 2 BCH and even more** before I finish my four-year degree course.
What for? If you got to read this article that I published last November 2021, **My Bucket List Before I Settled Down**, I mentioned one of my goals here. Which is me, "*aiming to buy our own lot before I graduate in college or months after I graduate*." https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-bucket-list-before-i-settled-down-d1956bd6
To sum it up, the primary reason why I kept grinding in here is to have that piece of land that we can call as **ours**. And, I am aiming for at least 150 square meters or more bigger, if I can. In order to be able to acquire our own lot, I need to have an **estimated PHP 500,000.00** or equivalent to **9,765.46 USD**. If BCH will go mooning again for the next year/s until I graduate like it will go up to $1000+ again, I'll be needing **at least 5 BCH or even more**. It depends on the current trends in real estate by that time, it keeps on changing *kasi eh*.
Though, it won't be easy to attain for a struggling student and a breadwinner like me who's not just financing her own needs but her parents' and siblings' too. So, yeah. Saving while in the need for spending will be a bit tougher, for me.
How can I unlocked this goal?
Since that I am still a student, my source of earning is limited. At this point, I'm focusing in blogging and planning to broaden up my means of passive income. Well, aside from my main hustle which is studying. As I stay here for a longer duration of time, I don't want to just depend with noise.cash and read.cash, anymore. I want to explore more such as the trading, P2E games, and other blogging platforms like HIVE, Appics, and anything that can give me some earnings. Like what I usually say, "I'm a goal-digger." So, as long as there are an opportunities knocking up in my door, I will grab them all. As long as I can balance everything in my plate~ my studies, side hustles, and other responsibilities.
So self, listen. It will never be easy and you are also aware of the rough roads to take and hindrances to pass-by, but you're a fighter and a dreamer. You can make it, just don't give up and make sure to move that a$s of yours to have more progress. 💛

<Reasons Why I'm Aiming For At Least 5 BCH by @imanagrcltrst>
Published by February 05, 2022
Things That I'm Saving Up For This 2022
**"I must hustle so hard to make a living and save, at the same time."**
This is the exact reasons that was engraved in my mind in terms of hustling. **To earn** so that I, we can provide for our necessities and **to save** for what I want to attain in the future such as assets and investments. No to liabilities, as possible *sana*. Such as our usual dream to acquire our own lot and build a more comfortable house to have a greater level of peacefulness in life.
How about you? What are your reasons for grinding? I am aware that most of us has the same share of reasons, am I right?
In my last published article by 02.01.22, I had shared **My Biggest Monthly Earning in read.cash** which had reached to **more than 0.44 BCH**. That is about my how much I had accumulated and now, let's proceed to another topic and it's about the things that I am saving up for this year of 2022. In short, ***expenditures***. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-biggest-monthly-earning-in-readcash-a99f2186
Aside from spending my hard-earned money to material things, what's in my yearly goal is to finance our birthdays again and our parents' 23rd wedding anniversary. And, here are the list of our birthdays:
***June 5 and 6-*** Mama 38th and Papa's 43rd birthdays;
***July 21-*** My sister's 12th birthday;
***September 25-*** imanagrcltrst's 22nd birthday; and
***October 20-*** Bro's 19th birthday.
More so, I will also save a little amount for my graduation (under CAS) celebration this February and sis' graduation by April. She'll finish her primary years of education by that month. Also, I promised that I'll contribute a creamy chicken soup (*sopas*) for Lola's (grandmother, in English) 1st death anniversary that'll be held this February 13.
What about material things? Are they not included in the list? Of course, they won't be absent.
Honestly speaking, I am not a materialistic-type of person. If I will buy some things for myself, I make sure that I will really benefit onto those things before I decide whether to purchase it or not.
In my list, I originally have **6 things aiming to be purchased**. Good news, I already unlocked two of them such as the *study table* (last 01.02.2022) and *Mama's washing machine* by 01.17.2022. And, here are the remaining things that are still "locked" in my initial list. Come and take a look as you keep upon scrolling down.
Make-up set from P⚡nkFlash.
As a girl or grown-up woman, it seems to be a mandatory rule that we should be knowledgeable on how to make ourselves glow more and be more pleasing through wearing some make-ups. Would you believe me when I say that I am one of the few ladies out there who don't know how to apply make-ups? Yeah, I am indeed one of them. Hehe! With just lip balms, lip tints, or lip gloss and some face powder, I am already satisfy with my looks. But, it changed. Now, I want to learn *na* and I will start it after I reached that $8 in my coins savings. As of now, I already have PHP 120.00 in my recyclable savings bank.
For what? Coz I will check out this item in my Shopee cart. Tadaa~ ***a make-up set from one of my fave cosmetic brands***.
For just 366 pesos ($7.17) minus the shipping fee, I'll have this products in one package:
*Lipstick; honey blush; four different shades of lip gloss; beauty sponge; foundation; eyeliner, eyebrow pencil, and mascara.*
Other than for it as my "*beginner's kit*", it will also be my gift for myself for surpassing the first two years of college life and for that "**with honors**" award. 💛 I deserved it, right? :)
Dining set
All our life, we always eat our meals while sitting on the floor. We have a wooden dining table in our previous house but we are use to eat like how Japanese eat their meals so we seldomly use that table. When we moved out, we didn't bring it with us as it's already old and near to be wrecked.
Now, we are just using a small center table. So, that made me aim to buy a bigger and higher dining table that can accommodate 5-6 persons like this one.
I really like this design ey. This was called as "**rattan dining set**" but was not really a rattan perhaps was just made out of plastic. Though, it's price is still quite expensive. The table was near to a thousand pesos and was doubled when I get the package with chairs. So, yeah. Will save for it first.
Bro's new phone.
Actually, this one was already in my 2021 Goals but apparently, I hadn't make it happen. Now, lemme try it again. I am planning to buy my brother a new phone coz the one that he's been using was already old and with so many problems *na*. Also, he'll be in Grade 10 next S.Y., so he'll really need it. My budget for his phone is from PHP 5000-6000, like what he said *din* before and I'm aiming to buy it before the S.Y. 2022-2023 starts*.* And, here are my choices.
**Infinix Note 7** that has a storage of 64GB/128GB with a price almost 6K or $117.54.
Photo not mine. https://specifications-pro.com/en/infinix-note-7-specs/
Or **Vivo y20i**, the same to my phone with a price of PHP 7K+ or can decrease when it was in the market for longer time duration.
Photo not mine (2). https://www.vivo.com/ph/support/upgradePackageData?id=1000
What d'yah think, guys? I'm also accepting some suggestions, I know that there are a lot of techy teens and wannabe-teens here. :D
Printer
And, last but not the least. A **printer with a scanner** (or copier) in one. It's the most expensive thing in my list but I really want to have it this month *na sana*. I need it for printing out my upcoming piles of reading materials this semester and for my target printing business. But, it's kinda difficult to have it by now that BCH is in the dipping season. Hoping that it will start mooning again by March so that I can unlock it already. *crossed fingers*
This are the things that I am saving up for this year. Would I be able to unlock them all? Or will it be just what happened last year? Unaccomplished and still pending. What do you think, guys? But, one thing's for sure ...
" ... I will do my very best to have them all. Coz basically, it will not just benefit me. But, our family as well. Just like what I always wanted." 💚

My Biggest Monthly Earning in read.cash
read.cash ...
These "*two-words-separated-by-a-period*" had been a part of our lives for either a year or months. Wherein it serves as one of the sources of passive income for all of us here. Whether we are a students, professionals, stay-at-home Moms and Dads, name it.
But, ***what is read.cash to begin with?***
***read.cash ....*** *is a free-blogging platform or site that is powered by Bitcoin Cash (BCH) whereas we can earn without any means of investing. It was funded by our very own Sir Marc De Mesel, Simon, and the team.*
***How can we earn BCH?***
Simply thru writing and publishing our own-made and not plagiarized articles. If crypto-related topics aren't our forte, then we can opt to another topic such as personal experiences, life happenings, failures and success moments, rants, anything as long as we are following the rules and enjoying the moment of writing and interacting.
***How to survive in this platform?***
Just be natural and do what is right. Interact more and build a solid camaraderie. Learn to be a "giver-and-receiver" and do not just focus with the earnings or quantity of the articles we published. Instead, indulge on the quality. Also, there are times that we should set aside the thoughts of earning and perhaps, enjoy more. *An advice from me?* Treat it as our our open-diary and not just a way of having an income. That way, you, we can stay here for a longer time.
I admit that at first, I was more focused with the fact that I can earn here. What's running in my mind is that dollars, dollars, dollars. But as days passed by, it changed. How other content creators shared they're experiences, thoughts, opinions, it changed the way of how I view read.cash.
My journey in blogging had started last January 2021 but just got active by June 2021, took me months before I came up with my senses, haha. Of course, I also begin with that $0 or simply at scratch. That time, I don't earn that big. I even don't hit that 0.1 BCH when I am just starting, but it was indeed a "*patience is a virtue.*" After more than a month, **TheRandomRewarder** (also known as **Rusty** or simply as **bot**) finally noticed me.
In there, that goal of accumulating "0.1 BCH in a month" became more possible. I pushed myself to write and interact as often as I can despite of my overwhelming responsibilities and priorities outside this virtual world. Though, I don't achieve it sometimes. But, that didn't stop me to strive and thrive. I put more and more effort and compassion until I reached that 0.1 BCH in just 12 days last August 2021, for the very first time.
My usual monthly earnings in read.cash was ranging between more or less than 0.1 BCH. Although, I rarely hit above 0.1 BCH. I then thought that it will be the first and last time but it happened that I accumulated that numbers again last 01.10.2022 for just a duration of 10 days. Yes, a bit faster than the first time. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/accumulated-01-bch-in-just-10-days-247a029e
Instead of withdrawing it right at that time, I let it grow more. Until it reached **0.19+ BCH** on the night of 01.17.2022.
Imagine, got to almost hit 0.2 BCH for just a matter of 17 days? That's really unexpecting. Apparently, I wasn't able to hodl it for longer time as I decided to withdrawn it for AB's first consultation with a veterinarian for her fracture. But, no need to regret or what. Coz tadaaaa~ **I had unexpectedly earned it back.** 🧡
I didn't exert an expectation nor even pressured myself that I can and must have that amount again before the month ends. Because seriously, I only have remaining 14 days before February arrives. "*A wannabe-blogger won't make that happen so fast"*, that's what I stick to my mind. But, there's no impossible for a person who's determined to get what he/she wants to attain.
Lookkk! I got and earned back that withdrawn and converted 0.19+ BCH and even surpassed it. Wiee~ that seems-to-be-impossible thing? **I made it happened, again.**
In just a duration of 14 days, I earned not just 0.19+ BCH but 0.23+ BCH. Seems so impossible but I made it possible. 💓
To sum it up, I don't just had 0.1 BCH in a matter of 31 days. But I even made it to more than what I am expecting. As you can remember, I am using two seed phrases. The first one is in my laptop and the second is what I'm using in my phone. Although I seldomly use the first seed phrase, I am still having some in there.
When I summed up what I got earned in those two seed phrases, omooo! Guess how much did I accumulated?
I got 0.447+ BCH this January 2022! Cheers to my biggest read.cash earnings, so far. 🥂
What's my plan with it? As of this point, it was already sent in my coins.ph wallet and was added to my current BCH hodlings from noise.cash. For now, I will just hodl it and will only convert it into fiat when I already need to. But, if I can accumulate that amount by February, then maybe I can add it up to my goal of unlocking 2 BCH. But then, let's see. ☺
Closing Thoughts
Before I end this article, I would want to say "good luck" to us and to our goals this month. May we all be showered with lots of blessings and opportunities and yes to more "finally" and lesser "I hope." ❣

January: Filled With Expenses
**To make a living ... or simply to "earn."**
This is the main reason why we, all of us are engrossing and indulging ourselves to do number of works. To the point that we are slowly pressuring, stressing, and even burning out our bodies and minds. Though, we can't avoid it as we are in deep need to earn for us to have something to fund our expenses. Either be it in a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis.
Earning money isn't an easy-peasy thing to do so, just like how fast and easy for us to change what we want to have. It requires a lot of efforts, patience, hard-and-smart working, perseverance, and even intelligence or resourcefulness. They said that "*being just an intelligent person isn't enough to have a stable job or passive income, we need to be resourceful too.*" (Filipino: *'Di ka lang dapat matalino, madiskarte din dapat.*) Do you agree? Or not? Me? I do believe. Nothing is easy nowadays, so we need to know how to jive our intelligent and creative mind to attain what we want to attain in life. *'Wag lang iasa sa katalinuhan, samahan din dapat ng pagiging madiskarte.*
Why do I had that two paragraphs as my introduction? It's for a motive that this article meant to share the reasons behind my unstoppable and intense hustling moments.
There are many instances wherein I already mentioned that I am a "struggling-college student." Why am I struggling? What for? Coz I have this strong urge to contribute something for our family. For our basic needs such as foods, shelter, clothing, name it. More so, to provide my and my siblings' needs in our studies. It's not easy and will never be. Even I am enjoying not just one scholarship, I am aware that it will still be short and I will soon lack. That's why I need to be resourceful, too. Good thing that this two awesome blogging platforms, noise.cash and read.cash, are here to support me in my goal to earn. Though, it doesn't just taught me how to earn but to learn, as well. Learn from other users' lives, experiences, knowledge, and their hacks on how to survive life and its needs.
In this article, I will share some of the things that I am looking at a reason to hustle and grind so hard. What are they? Aside from the daily needs and small things that I had financed, here's some of the major "whatsit" that I paid attention for this first month of 2022.
Groceries and other necessities
This January, I only did a grocery shopping once and that's by January 13. A day before the Alert Level 3 was implemented here in our province due to the rising cases of COVID-19 positives. In here, I bought our stocks that can make us alive for at least 2-3 weeks or so. It depends with our tummies' needs, haha! It is not just because of the AL3 in our province but it's also to accomplish my monthly goal. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/my-thursday-a-day-for-my-monthly-goal-f1875f98
Study table
As a student and a hustler, it is one of our goals to have a more comfortable area to do our tasks. And, it will not just with a silent and healthy surrounding but with a better spot at home. It's been too long since I wanted to have my, our own study area and tadaaa! No more *sana all* as I already unlocked it last January 04, 2022 with a price of PHP 980.00 ($19.17).
That very same day, I started working and hustling more comfortably. All thanks to my scholarship allowance for enabling me to have this.
*Shared in this article:* **Cheers to a More Comfortable Studying and Hustling!** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/cheers-to-a-more-comfortable-studying-and-hustling-c01d9dd0
Mama's Washing Machine
It was one of my mother's dream to stop borrowing someone's washing machine and it will only happen if she'll own one. But apparently, it's not going to be easy. Saving up for the money needed for it will put us, especially her, in a very difficult situation. In order to have it, she and even us needs to work hard and to double our time. Or else, her hands will be wounded or worst, will ache most of the time.
Good thing that I am having a good amount with my side hustles but then, with the price of BCH? Having that **$102 For Mama's Washing Machine** held me back. Despite of that, we still successfully unlocked her washing machine by January 17, 2022. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/102-for-mamas-washing-machine-776dd1e1 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/mamas-washing-machine-unlocked-e1cbb665
AB's Checkup and Surgery
Last 01.06.22, we found out that **Someone Had Hurt My Baby AB!**. In this article, I had mentioned who's AB in my life. She's not a human-baby but a cat-baby, a certified spoiled and stubborn cat. Instead of her fracture and wound to heal, it gets worst by the night of 01.15.22. And, I had shared it here: **AB's Situation Is Getting Real Bad**. So, I came up with a very tough decision which is to bring her to a veterinarian for proper assessment and treatment. When I already accumulated more than 0.1 BCH in read.cash, I sent it to my coins.ph account and used it for her first checkup. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/someone-had-hurt-my-baby-ab-d7313b26 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/abs-situation-is-getting-real-bad-b86d4dfc
I spent thousand in there and another more than PHP 4500.00 for her surgery and medicines which was from my BCH hodlings.
However, I didn't regret spending this much for her coz by now? My old baby is getting back to what she looks like before. Energetic, cuddler, and super stubborn. Though, she just suddenly became a lazy cat who just only eat-and-sleep the whole day. Haha~
CAS Graduation Requirements
January 20. The day that I marked in my calendar, for what? For the shocking news that I received that very same day. That I will gonna wear that black toga that I was dreaming for for so many years of kicking in my studies. But then, I must comply with all the needed requirements first and it just means, "*I'm in need of money, again.*" The most expensive requirement that I had spent at was in an estimated +PHP 600.00 ($12) and that's for the graduation picture whereas I am wearing **That Much Awaited Black Toga**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/im-gonna-wear-that-black-toga-a-shocking-news-0e6dbdae https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/that-much-awaited-black-toga-fa10fe67
Even though its kinda expensive, it's worth it *naman*. As in~ imagine this scenes that I am all tired with life but I will just look at this photo hang in the corner of my study table?
Ahh! All of those tiredness, stress, name it. It will all fade and then be refilled with positivity and determination, again.
February house rent
It's more than a month since we moved in in this new house. And since we are just renting, I am aiming to pay every month rent ahead of time to lessen the things that I need to finance. Last January 29, I gave the money to Mama to pay the rent. And in just a snap, bye-bye PhP 1800.00 na. Huhu, come back before March arrives okay?
Overall, I had spent **more or less PHP 12,000 ($234.52)** this whole month. Some are from my scholarship allowances but mostly are from my BCH hodlings that I had pinched to fill-in this expenses. However, I already had earned back almost half of my BCH conversions so it's all good for me *na.* No need to regret of what, coz what's important is ...
" ... I had saved AB's life from high-risk and I had helped upon providing our family's needs. Those money that I spent? I can earn it back but the satisfaction and happiness? It will remain, for a longer time." 💛

Stressful Second Semester Says, "Here I Come!"
**Ohayo, everyone! :)**
Gaddd! It's been two consecutive days of that so-called "no published article." At the first day (January 27), I was in a bad shape because basically I am not "sick-proof." Haha~ while on the next day, I attempted to write one. Apparently, I suddenly got in a high level of bad mood that night. Moodiness, on.
And now that I have a free time and lighter to-dos, might as well grab the chance to do so. Actually, this article was inspired by mamsh @WanderingMedStudent's Second Semester Might Be The End Of Me. It's for the reason that even the classes for second semester hadn't yet officially started, I can already feel the extreme stress and exhaustion due to the overflowing and unending activities. https://read.cash/@WanderingMedStudent/second-semester-might-be-the-end-of-me-3be11f84
**Do you believe that second semesters in college were more difficult than first semesters?**
If not, maybe you should consider now. Because seriously, it is really difficult. Yes, both semesters are tough but second semester is like the "difficult level" in every spelling or quiz bees.
Second semester of Academy Year 2021-2022 in our university was supposedly begun by January 24 (Monday) but the higher ups announced that it was moved to January 26. However, the classes hadn't still begin that day. Because most of the courses and year levels has no Google Classroom invitations for the enrolled subjects yet.
I had shared a glimpse of my academic life for this semester in here: Three Semesters Left To Take. Wherein I mentioned that I enrolled **12 subjects** for the semester. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/three-semesters-left-to-take-cbf079ab
The 12th subject is the **AGRIC4400A_0** which is for the continuation of our thesis outline.
As I said, I need to take and must pass all this 12 subjects. What are they? Continue scrolling to know.
For the major subjects, I have three to take minus the Phytobacteriology (study of bacterias) last semester and these are:
**PPATH 3305-** Mycology (study of fungi)
**PPATH 3310**- Phytonematology (study of nematodes)
**CPROT 3200**- Beneficial Arthropods and Microorganisms
Can you still remember my field of major and specialization? It's **Major in Crop Protection**, **Plant Pathology** as specialization.
First, **what is Crop Protection?**
*It's one of the field of Agriculture that's designated for studying all the pests infestating in agriculture. This are the weeds, insect pests, and plant diseases.*
Crop Protection has 3 divisions such as the **Weed Science** for weeds, **Entomology** for insect pests, and **Plant Pathology** for plant diseases. And, I am in the division or specialization of Plant Pathology.
Here's a peak for what we are doing ib Plant Pathology:
In this specialization, we are studying uncountable plant diseases that are already discovered such as the rots, spots, curling, and all. Though, there's more that are still under studies. Aside from that, we should know how to both classify (identify) and diagnose such plant diseases and what organisms caused them like bacterias, fungi, viruses, nematodes, and more. With or without the use of microscopes. How to? Through the signs and symptoms. Though, they just similar but we should be careful with the diagnosis because the proper treatments was based on our findings. And, take note of lots of scientific names. Like *Pectobacterium carotovorum*, what's this? Well, that's soft rot of carrots. In identifying and diagnosing, we should always use the scientific term coz it varies from the plant and crops themselves and the present pathogen/s.
Some of the principles of Plant Pathology is similar to the Pathology for humans and animals. Though, our patients just differ *nga lang*. We have plants as our patients.
Okay, that's enough. *Hehe~baka makulda kayo* even though that's just a portion of the basics.
As per the minor subjects, I have both course-related and not.
*Course-related minor subjects*
**AGRIC 3120**- Basic Biotechnology
**AGMGT 3120**- Introduction to Agricultural Policy and Development (I can smell laws here huh, HAHA!)
**AGRIC4400A_0**- Thesis outline
*Not a course-related minor subjects*
**PHILI 1100**- The Life and Works of Rizal
**SOCSCI 1110**- Ethics
If you'll count them, that's just 8. But, my three major subjects has a respective laboratory classes aside from the lectures and on the Basic Biotechnology, as well. To sum up, that's 8 subjects + the remaining 4. And, that makes it to **12 subjects**.
Why does the title of my article like that? Coz our Professors are already making an appearance. How ? Through GClassroom invitations.
It begun last January 27 when I received invites from 3 of my 12 Professors (Instructors, as well). Here comes SOCSCI 1110, PPATH 3310 (Lecture and Laboratory classes).
In PPATH 3310, my Professor is the well-known Doctor and College Dean in our department. He got a huuuuge brain as he finished not just one Doctorals but five (*daw!*). That explains why he's so great. That's why I'm somehow feeling so nervous with my thesis coz he's my thesis critic who had already made a loooot of studies about onion diseases which is the focus of my study. Hope that I won't be grilled and deep fried, haha!
On the next day, I got another invitation which is for PHILI 1100 or "Ethics."
For today, there's no invites *naman*. So far, I already have 4 out of 12 subjects joined in Google Classroom. 8 more to go and the war will about to start again. LOL!
Am I ready? Well, I guess so? Haha~ seriously, I don't know if I am ready or not yet. Though, my stuffs like notebooks, reading materials, pens, and etcetera are already here. But, my mind? Let's not just talk about it. :D
But, one thing is for sure. I'll be in so much stress this semester. Not just because it's "second semester", also with the number of my subjects. Hello? That's 12 *po uy. 'Di man labg nabawasan kahit isa*. Haha!
Still, let's do this! Even though how difficult, stressing, exhausting it may be? I'll make sure to surpass it without having failed grades and behind subjects next A.Y. So, I can still be a regular student and no to "warning" status. Let's do this, Future Agriculturist! 💛

Congratulations, For What?
**Hello, lovely readers and writers! :)**
How have you been? I wasn't able to write an article last day because of the same reason, busyness.
Today, I spent most of my time doing my usual agendas. Household chores, academic-related tasks, hustling. In the morning I cleaned our room and organize our study corner as my classes should had started today.
In the afternoon, I planned to allot my time for my next article here in read.cash. Apparently, I suddenly experienced this so-called "writer's block" that lend me to just lay down the bed the whole afternoon. Haha! Right on that spot, my laziness got into my system and I changed my original plan of writing today to just do whatever unproductive stuffs I want.
While watching random videos in Facebook, my thesis adviser from last semester up to fourth year, sent a private message to me. I guess, to all of us that he handles. There are five of us in his advisee, 3 guys (including my ex-crushie, teheee~) and 2 gals (me and my close friend). Like before, he was just asking for some updates about my thesis outline revision. What's going on with it now, any questions and concerns, tutorials and some advices, and such.
Everything was smooth as he was teaching me what to do upon coordinating with the Municipal Department of Agriculture Office of my selected place of study and scheduling for our next virtual meetings. After numerous exchanges of talks about my ongoing thesis outline, I was surprised when he suddenly said, "**Congrats, ading. Keep it up.**"
So, what would I respond? Of course, it's a "thank you, Sir." with a love reaction at his message. Yes, I instantly extended my gratitude coz I thought that it was about the progress that I've been having in my thesis outline. But, hehe. I'm all wrong~
As you can remember, he's the same person who asked me before if I am running for cum laude.
Which I said that I am not. Because that's really it is, my ultimate goal is to graduate on time and being lined up with the "laudes" or graduating students with flying colors is just a bonus for me. That is what I am saying even before that we're still in F2F modality.
The five of us were so lucky to have him as our thesis adviser coz he's so vocal on how he believes on us and he's so helpful. We don't feel so much pressure from our thesis coz he's motivating us, so much. Why? Because he wants us to graduate and finish our studies, on time.
Back to the topic. What I thought of the reason why he congratulated me is wrong, because it's about the other thing. And, I also shared it in noise.cash as a sort of thriller (spoiler) of what I'll be having in my article today.
*Shared in this noise.cash post:* https://noise.cash/post/lp5j0k7x
And, here's some of the guesses that I received in the comment section.
Of course, first is my ading @kingofreview. Who is the ultimate abanger of my grades, he seems to be more excited to see that "uno" of mine than me. Hahaha~
And, here's another one. Grades is what she guess, too. Hello, Ate @Loveleng18.
But, what is it all about *ba kasi*? Why I said that what I thought for saying "thank you" is wrong? Okay, let's not wait for too long. Here it issss.
See that "**Castro**" in number 16? Hey, that's me. 💕 And, yes. I'm one of the student applicants for CAS Graduation with a distinction of **Academic Honors**, "*with honors*" to be more specific.
Wieee~ another shocking news we got here. Kyaaah! The last time that I had this kind of title is during our Senior High School Graduation which I am one of the two students with High Honors in our strand, Home Economics. And, I really don't know that there's like this in this graduation. To think that we're not gonna graduate because we finished the 4-years of BSA Agriculture but for finishing the first 2-years lang.
And, ahhh! A GPA (Grade Point Average) of **1.71**? Really a bombshell it is. Then, ranked at #16 out of all the third year students in our course? Seriously? Does my brain that big for me to be in this place? Haha!
But, seriously speaking. I really didn't see that coming, I was already happy that I finally accomplished all the five requirements for the CAS Graduation. Then, here's another one. Hayst, I can't properly describe what I feel right now. Especially the moment that I saw my name in the list. *Ngiting tagumpay na naman*, guys. To the point that my brother said that I looked crazy for smiling that much while looking at my phone screen. :D
As in, is this my month? That even I was being bombarded with lots of expenses to think of, I was still being showered with so much achievements and blessings. Feel so blessed ey~ ❤️
I hadn't said or announced it yet to my parents nor even to my friends as my adviser said to not post or share it to other students. And, that I should wait for February 04 to do that. But, he didn't said to not share it here and in noise.cash. So, push. Hehe~ *pasaway na bata.*
I think, I should start saving for my *handa na?* :D Chars~ excited much ih.
But still, I feel so thankful and blessed with this kind of news. I won't ever get fed up with it, never. 👏🏻 Can't wait to extend this news to my parents, but not yet.

That Much Awaited Black Toga
In my article three days ago, **I'm Gonna Wear That Black Toga: A Shocking News**, I shared that I am one of the third year students of our degree program (course) that will about to participate in the Mid-Year Graduation. Though, it is not formally for graduation but under the Certificate of Agricultural Science (CAS). https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/im-gonna-wear-that-black-toga-a-shocking-news-0e6dbdae
**Wondering what is CAS all about?**
`For the sake of my new readers or those who hasn't read that linked article above, here it is.`
*is given to agriculture students who already finished the first two years of studying the said course above. It is not a college diploma but can be used as our credential once we decided to apply for a job or to get employed. We can use it whether if we will pursue the next two years or more specially when we will not.*
`-definition was copied from "I'm Gonna Wear That Black Toga: A Shocking News."`
As I've also mentioned in that recent blog, we have **5 different requirements** to comply with. This are the:
**(1)** *Application Form*, **(2)** *Graduation Clearance*, **(3)** *Tree Planting*, **(4)** *Payment for Certificate*, and **(5)** *Graduation Picture*.
At this point, I already had accomplished four out of five requirements. Except for the number 4. Now, let me proceed to the sharing of my stressful-days of responding to all those requirements that the higher-ups had instructed.
Morning, 01.22.2022
I woke up so early this day coz I need to search for a mango seedling that I'll be using for the tree planting. I can't afford to buy because I can't afford to highly-variated mangoes like Catimon that costs PHP 500.00 ($10) for just one seedling. Ahhh! I'm poor so that's really expensive for me, hehe. So, I just resorted upon looking for a mango seedlings that had already sprouted and grown along the road or in any of the vacant lots here. I started the manhunt by 7:10AM and good news, I found one in just a short time. Wieee~ actually, there's so many out there but most are still young *pa*. And, this one is just good to be transplanted.
Not that young nor old, so yeah. Thank you to this boy right here for helping me up in times like this. He's the one who digged up the seedling and the hole for me. 💚

Of course, I am the one who transplanted it. Not just for documentation purposes but because it's my responsibility to do so. Around 8:20AM, that morning, I finished the simple tree planting activity as per our requirement.
*Shared in this linked noise.cash post:* https://noise.cash/post/15r3qz03
*Why need to do a tree planting?* Just so you, guys know, the Department of Agriculture Secretary, Dr. William Dar had instructed every Agriculture students who are candidates for graduation to plant a tree. It's not a voluntary activity, but a mandatory one.
After I finished the chores that morning, I immediately submitted it to the organizer two hours before the deadline. By then on, I checked the checkbox allotted for that requirement. **Tree planting, done. Two more to go. 💓**
Morning, 01.23.2022
On this day, I and my close friend planned to have our graduation picture at one of the photo studio in the town. Our other friend can't come with us coz she's currently in Pampanga and can't bring her a$s in here yet. Our call time is by 10:00AM, but she came late coz she waited for her boyfriend to pick her up and join us. Apparently, we hadn't done our agenda right on time because there's no black toga available in there. We even tried to look for other studio, but they are all close. Hayst! So, no choice but to come back in the first studio. The owner said that there's a girl that will come that day who has a black toga and we should just rent it *na lang daw*. So, okay. We tried that option, however, the said girl hadn't arrived yet and it's already lunch time. Coz we are so hungry *na*, we just decided to eat at Mang Inasal, as our bonding *na din.*
In there, I ordered PM1 or the thigh part and 1 rice. Can't have unli rice coz I am shy with her boyfriend even though we are close *din naman*. I also added a medium iced tea and small halo-halo.
That's all for almost $4, hehe~ Planning to take out *sana* for our family's lunch, but I remembered that Mama bought some chicken that morning. *Baka lumipad na kami nang wala sa oras, HAHAHA!*
To make it short, we hadn't had our graduation that morning. But, I leaved my contact number just in case that we can still have it that same day. It was due by 01.26.2022 *na kasi* and we are just informed by 01.21.2022, so we are rushed.
I was saying to myself that it was *alanganin* if we'll wait for that girl so I made another move. I asked one of my friends from other major who's living in the neighbor city if there's some studio in their place that has a black toga and she said, yes. Though, it was sooo far from our place. Maybe, a travelling time of about or less than an hour. I told this to my Papa and he said that we should go right after they ate their late lunch, coz I might get late if I'll do it the next day.
So, okay. I go to Tita's house coz she'll do my simple make-up and do my hair. *Mas kinulot n'ya lang 'yung kulot kong buhok, haha.*
Fast forward, tadaaaa. By quarter to 4PM, I already had my graduation picture. Though, I was instructed by the handsome photographer that they'll just email me the softcopy and to come back tomorrow (today, 01.24,2022) for the hard copy. In there, I payed PHP 220.00 for the package. Excluding the gas for Papa's motor, hehe.
Of course, this won't be possible without my first man who patiently accompanied me for the whole day. He sacrificed his sleeping time even though he'll work straight from night until the morning as a baker. Thank you, Papa! 💛
So, to make it up to him, I told him to buy some thrifty shorts at the store beside the studio before we go home. He really adores thrifty shorts *kasi* eh, as in.
And, he chose 3 maong shorts that he'll use for our errands and his work *daw*. For just PHP 150.00 ($3), he had a branded-liked shorts.
To tell you frankly, I was really excited to see my picture even though I am aware that I kinda looked haggard in that photo, haha.
**And no need to wait more longer, coz I'mma gonna dropped it naaaaa. In 3, 2, 1 .... tadaaa! ✨**
This is the soft copy that was emailed to me this morning.
What's the feeling of seeing myself wearing this dream black toga? Honestly, I can't find a more suitable word to describe it. *Basta*, it feels so nostalgic and surreal even I just had wore it for a few minutes. *Nakaka-kilig*, superrrr! I can't stop myself from smiling and my heart to beat so fast while coming back so many times in my gallery for this photo. 🧡 What more if I'm also about to wear the cap with tassle and the hood? Maybe, I'll palpitate so bad. Haha! Seriously.
*Shared in this linked noise.cash post:* https://noise.cash/post/l0q32k68
When I got the hard copy, I instantly bought a frame for it as I am planning to hang it in our room. And, here it is *na nga.*
When I finalized our study area, I will hang it in the wall in front of me. Additional inspiration to look at whenever I'm feeling so down and wanted to give up reaching my dreams. I'll just look into it and viola, I'll get to know again the reasons why I'm so eager to have all my dreams come true.
***Captured and framed*** *post in noise.cash:* https://noise.cash/post/1n95r3z7
As a final remark on this article, let me rephrased what I written at the end of my recent blog.
**I finally had wore that black toga, in which I and our parents had been dreaming of. It's not yet the final one but I'll make sure that years from now, I will also that toga, a cap with a yellow tassle, and yellow hood that symbolizes the degree course that I finished. Can't wait for this moment ey~ soonest, self! For now, good luck with the thesis. You can do it! 💚🥂** https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/im-gonna-wear-that-black-toga-a-shocking-news-0e6dbdae#i-will-get-to-wear-a-black-toga-which-is-i-and-our-parents039-ultimate-dream-years-from-now-i

It's Not Just 1 BCH
**What's up, everyone? :)**
Was absent in writing an article for a day as I was had to allot more time upon complying to the requirements for our graduation. This was shared by me last 01.21.22 in this article, **I'm Gonna Wear That Black Toga: A Shocking News**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/im-gonna-wear-that-black-toga-a-shocking-news-0e6dbdae
I had shared my BCH journey so many times, either be it on noise.cash or read.cash. Through this coin that constantly and continuously entering my BCH wallet, I had been unlocking uncountable goals of mine. Before, I often mentioned in my articles the expenditures that I've been having this past few days and months, with the help of BCH itself. Here comes the groceries, school supplies, home stuffs, and way mooore until to AB's surgery. Yes, I carried all the expenses with just BCH.
In this article, we won't have a talk about my expenditures and all. Rather, the BCH that I had possibly accumulated for writing articles. Only! So, let's start.
Two days ago, I saw this certain post from @kingofreview (boringwriter in noise.cash).
Wherein he shared his read.cash earnings through checking her wallet transaction. From there, he discovered that he had earned a total of more than 10 BCH. Again, with just read.cash alone. See? Shocking, right?
But, here's more. Yesterday, I was mentioned at @kli4d's article entitled **I already earned 23 BCH!** to do the same thing. And, what kli4d had is really more shocking than kingofreview's 10+ BCH. From the title itself, he got 23 BCH. Though, I know that there's something more shocking from this two. So, I will tag this awesome Ate(s) (@Jane, @Eirolfeam2, @Jeaneth, and @Usagi) of mine to share their earned BCH from writing quality-made articles and what they will do with it. https://read.cash/@kli4d/i-already-earned-23-bch-f64e5033
**So, it's now my turn to do my part.** Are you ready? Well, you should be. Char~ *akala mo naman malaki sa akin eh.* Haha!
Remember when I mentioned before that I joined read.cash last January 02, 2021 as "**imafutureagrcltrst**"? But got so inactive and was then spammed, so ended up creating another account. And this is that account, the one with "**imanagrcltrst**" as the username. I created this account around April but just got active in writing by June 20, 2021. Took too long to get back ey~
From that day on, I am using only one seed phrases as my account was logged in in my laptop's Chrome app. And, that's what I've been using all through the remaining months of 2021. I can say that I am not that totally active, both as content creator and a reader, as I was also focused in my studies and other responsibilities outside the world of blogging.
However, knowing that I am 50% active and 50% inactive in this platform, I was still both so amazed and shocked when I saw the earnings that I had possibly accumulated. Possibly, coz there's maybe a glitch here or what. Tadaaa~ I got **2.2 BCH** in total.
In US Dollar currency, that's equivalent to about **$1,252.25**. Upon seeing this one, I can't imagine that I had accumulated this numbers. As in, that was just around 6 months and I had this? Hayst, really unbelievable.
Then half of the year of having only one wallet, I swift into the so-called **multiple seed phrases**. I started using this one last 12.24.2021, why? Simply because I don't have access to WiFi as we moved out *na nga*. So, to make my grindings more easier and accessible, I opted to logged in in my phone. That makes me to have another seed phrase and tadaaa! This one surprised me eveeeen moore.
Imagine, **I earned 0.58+ BCH or 181.40 USD in just a duration of almost one month**? That's really a bombshell.
I mean, is this really what I got in return of writing 15 articles and commenting to other articles? To tell the truth, I can't digest it. Haha, *kaka-windang* eh.
Overall, it's **way half to 3 BCH**. If I was just hodling this until now, I will be so grateful. Apparently, I am just hodling the remaining 0.11+ BCH at this point. As you know, I am using my earnings in this platform upon funding some of our family's necessities like foods. This is where I am often getting the budget for groceries and other stuffs. But still, I am blessed. So much! It's not easy to come up with this number of earnings attained ah. And, it is definitely worth spending what I gained from inserting an overflowing efforts, determination, and hard-smart work. 🧡
Soon, I can get to hodl all of my earnings here in read.cash for a longer time. <3
*If I was able to save this 3 BCH and to not pinch more often, what will I do?*
Here are the some of the things that I'll possibly do:
**Invest in other BCH projects.**
Like kli4d, I will also do the same wherein I will invest some of myBCH hodlings to the other BCH projects like SmartBCH. As you can know, I really want to enter the world of trading and NFTs. But aside from I don't have enough BCH at this moment, what I know about this things aren't enough, as of now. So, I really need to know more *pa*.
**Push my business plans.**
Remember one of my goals this 2022 is to establish a business. As an initial plan, I am planning to start an e-loading business, printing and photocopying, and hydroponics farming business. All of this are planned to be funded and capitalized by BCH. Sadly, it's enjoying its skinny dipping *pa* in the deepest part of Mariana Trench. So, waiting *pa muna ako*. Hehe~
**Buy lot.**
Last and most importantly, one of my ultimate goals is to buy land. With this amount of BCH and to think that it's mooning, I can buy a lot with approximately 100 square meters. Depends on the current price or statistics of land purchasing. Soon, I'll get this one.
That'll be all for today's article. Hope you like it! 💕 And maybe, you can join us in this topic, as well. Whether you are challenged or not, feel free to join.
To know your BCH-earned in read.cash, just go to "My account" then click the "transaction history" or the "blockchair" beside it. And, viola! You'll see your's.

I'm Gonna Wear That Black Toga: A Shocking News
**Hello to all of the lovely writers and readers out there! :)**
A part of my life has been an open book since I entered this blogging platform. Most of the achievements, regardless of how big or small they are, that I had and having after I joined here are shared in this platform. Not for the intention of bragging but to mark what I had in return for so much grinding.
I am very vocal with my academic goals as I believed that once I achieved them, it will be like a domino effect to the other goals. As you can remember, I am already in my third year of taking my college degree which is **BS Agriculture**, Major in Crop Protection and Plant Pathology as my specialization. That explains why my username in both platforms (noise.cash and read.cash) and other social medias is "**imanagrcltrst**" (pronounced as "*I'm An Agriculturist*").
BS Agriculture is a four-year degree program and since that I am in the second semester of my third year of studying this course, I only have **Three Semesters Left To Take**. Meaning, I am gonna graduate around 2023. I hope so~ ✊🏻 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/three-semesters-left-to-take-cbf079ab
All I know is that I will just graduate about a year and a half from this very same time. On the contrary, I am totally wrong. Coz just yesterday, I received a news that really made me soooo shocked, same as to my parents. What is it? **It is that I, we (the third year students) are candidates for graduation under the CAS or Certificate in Agricultural Science.**
Before I proceed, lemme first define what is Certificate of Agricultural Science or simply CAS.
**Certificate of Agricultural Science ...**
*is given to agriculture students who already finished the first two years of studying the said course above. It is not a college diploma but can be used as our credential once we decided to apply for a job or to get employed. We can use it whether if we will pursue the next two years or more specially when we will not.*
Like what I said to my recent noise.cash post months ago (https://noise.cash/post/lg799q23), "**this certificate is like one of our tickets to the real world.**"
The application for this certificate is open during the first semester of every Academic Year. Though, it is not applicable for students who take BS Agribusiness coz they focus more in business area. By August 6, 2021, the application opened for us, third year students.
So, I immediately did my part and applied as early as I can. Specially, knowing that I already taken every subjects that I need to take during the first and second year and without any behind subjects or failed grades.
Still remember this noise.cash post (https://noise.cash/post/lg799q23) that I shared four months ago?
In that post, I mentioned that I will apply for the graduation, specifically for Certificate of Agricultural Science. And, this is the proof. Tadaaa!
However, we are also instructed that the certificate same as to the confirmation will be announced by 2022. So, I just wait and forgotten it for the meantime.
And just yesterday, an announcement in our specialization's group chat was sent by our Class President stating that the submission of Graduation Clearance for 3rd and 4th year students was extended until this day, 12 noon.
And I was like, "**what?**" Why are we, 3rd year included? So, I instantly messaged our President to clear my confusions. I even asked our organization's President for that. About 30 minutes after, I was like, "**ah okay.**" But the truth is, I can't still digest the fact that I am gonna graduate *na pala*.
And, I shared this news last night in my noise.cash post: https://noise.cash/post/1rg0q05j
All I thought that I will just wear my dream black gown (toga) when I finished my 4-years in college. Coz seriously, all I know is that they will just send a soft copy of the certificate to us. And that is why I am also confuse why we need to pay PHP 300 ($6) for that. Hehe~ but then, I am wrong, again.
And this e-mail from our college RIC (Records-In-Charged) confirmed it all.
This e-mail confirmed to me that I am really bound to wear that black toga. Kyaaaah! Such a shocking news, it is. When I told this news to my parents, they were so happy. As in~
So starting yesterday, I am so occupied upon complying to the needed requirements. Apparently, the deadlines made me feel stress. Actually, all of us. And, here they are:
In addition to the requirements, we shouldn't have any behind subjects which I don't have. So, check to that. I also had already complied to the **application form** last year which made me able to be one of the CAS Graduating students. Last night, I sent my response for the **Graduation Clearance**.
And, that made another check to my list. Now, I am just left with the remaining 3 requirements. This are:
(3) Tree Planting
This one is due by tomorrow, January 22. So, I already did my searching for the seedling for a fruit-bearing tree. Apparently, I can't find one coz they are all expensive. Will just do it more faster tomorrow. Rush it is, ackkk! Why *naman kasi late mag-announce?*
(4) Payment for Certificate
Coz LandBank is close during weekends, I will just do it by Monday. Good thing that there's no deadline yet.
(5) Graduation Picture
For this one, I and my friend will have our graduation picture at the photo house in the city proper by Sunday. And, we'll look for a black gown to rent *pa.* Hoping that there's one in the photo house.
The sad thing is, not all of us in the third year will join the CAS Graduation this Mid Year. Because there are a lot of students who are not aware of this one, I don't know if all of them aren't really aware or they just ignored it.
*Overall, I am so happy with this another achievement of mine. Yes, I am so shocked when I knew about this but I am still grateful. Coz finally ...*
**I will get to wear a black toga, which is I and our parents' ultimate dream. Years from now, I will not just wear a black toga but also a cap with a yellow tassle symbolizing the course degree that I finished. Can't wait for this moment ey~ soonest, self! For now, good luck with the thesis. You can do it! 💚🥂**

Three Semesters Left To Take
Are you a college student? Does the second semester in your university already started? I know some of here does begun this another endeavor more earlier. Hello to Mamsh @WanderingMedStudent and Ate @Usagi.
More so, the second semester of Academic Year 2021-2022 in our university is bound to begin by January 24. It means, we'll get back to another stressing but a definitely worth it semester. Am I ready? Hehe, I don't know either coz it seems like I hadn't yet had my vacation. Here's my thesis outline that's holding me back. How about this schoolmates of mine? @carisdaneym2, Pres @immaryandmerry, and ading @Maestro02. Are you ready? Please say, yes. :D
Before we proceed to another semester, we need to enroll first to make it official. Last January 17-18 is the schedule for freshmen and sophomore students like Maestro02 who is in his first year. Followed by the third and fourth year from January 20-21. And, last are the fifth and sixth year students. The question is, **are we enrolled already?** As of this day, I am. Of course, we all know that enrollment process is kinda exhausting and stressful. Either it be when it was still face-to-face but way more difficult during the distant learning modality.
In our university, we have numerous online platforms such as the Student Pinnacle (before) and the Student Portal (now) for such concerns. In the pinnacle, I can say that it's more easy to use as we can access the enrollment even in dawn. So by the morning, we are already enrolled. But, we should access it more earlier to avoid encountering the traffic and errors. Apparently, it is not the one we used this semester. Instead, it's the Student Portal that's only accessible on or before 8:30AM. In that, experiencing such difficulties upon accessing should be expected coz there are thousands of students who are trying to do the same.
Now, let's proceed to the process.
(1) Pre-Registration
Before we got to enroll in the semester, we need to accomplish the **Pre-Registration** wherein we will enlist the subject that we must take on the next semester and to secure our slots, as well. A day before the pre-registration starts, the subjects and our schedules was given. In there, I saw that I have **11 subjects** to take. That time, I can't help myself but to face palmed coz it didn't go to what I am praying for. For my subjects to be lessened because ever since when I'm in first year, I normally have around 11-13 subjects per semester and I had 11 last 1st semester.
Early in the morning of 01.12, I begun accessing the portal but as usual. There is an occurring traffic already and the system seems like it can't handle every students. And, here are the evidences.
Luckily, before I totally got pissed, the portal suddenly open for me around 12:09PM. *Natakot yata sa'ken,* haha~ and tadaaa! Here are my pre-registered subjects.
I can't still accept that the numbers of my subjects hadn't decrease even just 1 or 2. I hadn't moved on yet but there's another subject that is about to be added. Our Class President in Plant Pathology informed us to add this certain subject for the continuation of our thesis outline. So okay. To sum them up, I need to deal with **12 subjects** for the whole semester. Huhubells~
(2) Enrollment
The much awaited stressing-day comes in. Today is our college's (College of Agriculture) schedule and that's by 8:30AM-10:30, same as to the college (CBAA) where carisdaneym2 and immaryandmerry belongs. So to access the portal more easily and faster, I woke up more earlier around 6:30AM and tried to open the portal but failed coz it will just open on or before 8:30AM.
So while waiting for the portal to be accessible and the enrollment to open and, I just consumed my time doing wonders in noise.cash and read.cash. And by 7:28AM, I successfully entered the portal. More earlier than what I expected.
So, I immediately do my thing as I was thinking that I may suddenly be kicked out of the portal. It happens sometimes ey, haha~ when I clicked the "**confirm button**" beside the pre-registered subjects and agreed to the terms and conditions, the photo below this paragraph will appear which means that I had already enrolled that subject.
The good news is that I finished confirming the 12 subjects that I pre-registered last 01.12 for a duration of more or less 10 minutes. In short, I made myself enrolled more faster than before.
Such a very smooth enrollment process it is and believe it or not, this is the second time that I wanna compliment the developer of the said student portal for this smoothness. 🧡 Well, that's the effect of waking up more early during enrollment. Hihi!
Though, that didn't end there. Coz I still need to face my laptop and phone as our blockmates needs some assistance. And because I am the Vice President of our specialization for this whole A.Y. and also an active student in our block, I have a responsibilities to do.
As our President isn't yet online on the first one hour of the on-going enrollment, I took the initiative to lead our class and assist our blockmates. In just a matter of 30 minutes, my Messenger seems to explode anytime soon. Haha! Private messages (PMs) and group messages are bombarding my chatboxes and it doesn't only came from our block, but also from other students from other major and specialization.
In that, I wasn't able to continue my chitchatting with other users in noise.cash. However, I still managed to make it up when my messenger starts to cool down. Finally, :D.
So before this day ends, I am finally enrolled for second semester of A.Y. 2021-2022. Hoo, I may not be that ready but I will still do this and finish all the requirements that I need to comply. It may be become another tough semester, but I can do this. I need to and I can do, too.
Don't worry, self. You only have three semesters (excluding the Midterm Summer Class of 2022) left to deal with and finish. After that you can finally wear the black toga and cap that you and your parents were dreaming of for a long time. You will get to walk all the way to the Graduation Site, climb up the stage, and claim your much awaited college diploma stating your finished degree. With a possible bonus of being one of the Laudes or with flying colors. So, good luck and slay! 💚💛
`Note that I don't aim for the Laude (Cum, Summa, or Magna) either the flying colors. My greatest goal is to finish my college degree on time to fulfill my other goals connected to it. But, I am not saying that I can't be one. Every college students has the chances to be one, okay? Both the genius or persistent one. Always remember that. ✨`

How's AB?, An Update About My Cat-Baby
**Hello to all of my awesome readers! :)**
May I know how was your day? How did you spent it? Coz for today's article, I will share what happened on this day and how I spent it well and wisely.
Okay, let's start. In 3, 2, 1 ... ✨
Kidding~ I looked like a wannabe-vlogger on this part. Hihi!
Still remember what happened to my cat-baby, AB? I had shared it with this articles: **Someone Had Hurt My Baby AB!** and **AB's Situation Is Getting Real Bad**. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/someone-had-hurt-my-baby-ab-d7313b26 https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/abs-situation-is-getting-real-bad-b86d4dfc
Days ago, her situation got worsen. A little part of her broken bone starts to appear by the night of 01.17.22 and on the next day, a bigger part is already visible. That means that her condition isn't getting better but the other way around.
In that, I came up to a very tough decision. What is it? To send my January 1-17 earnings in read.cash amounting with 0.19 BCH, on the morning of 01.18.22. For what? For AB's consultation with a veterinarian. I planned it by January 19 coz I, we at the house is getting more worried at her. Good thing that I don't took a part of my read.cash earnings for Mama's washing machine, so I still have it in tucked. If I had spent it already? I won't be able to have some to use for today, for AB.
**Tuesday, January 19, 2022 (PH time)**
On the morning of 01.19.22, I woke up more earlier to start and finish all the chores and hustling as early as I can. Because by 9:00AM, we will go to the veterinary clinic located at the city proper. But I wasn't able to coz Papa is still sleeping as he worked during nighttime. So, I just rescheduled it by the afternoon.
Around 12:45PM, we (I and Papa) leaved the house together with AB. Coz we don't have a more bigger cage for her, we just borrowed one from our neighbor but they also don't have one but this basket for fruits. AB's comfortable inside *naman* inside and she can still move freely, so it's okay.
While on the way to our destination, AB kept meowing so loud for the whole duration of our travel. Maybe she thought that we will abandon her as it is also her first time to go out and this far *pa*. So, what I did is I talked to her more often and glad that she calmed down *naman*.
After almost 20 minutes, we arrived at the vet clinic and AB was immediately assisted by the female veterinarian and her assistant. After filling up AB's information sheet and assessment on her, we are referred to another diagnostic clinic (for humans) for her x-ray. The vet wants to have two different views of her x-ray, I forgotten what they properly call it. Hehe~
So, we instantly proceeded on there. I was more glad that the Radiologic Technologist who once assisted Mama before is there, so she's the one who examined AB. She was so cool and jamming and she also explained everything so well and clear. That's why I really like her.
For the two views of x-ray, I paid PHP 560.00 ($10.90) for that. I was a bit shocked with the price coz yeah, it's kinda expensive for me. Hehe~ almost the same with humans ey.
In there, our suspicion that her bone at her hindleg (around the femur area) is really broken. It moved away from the joint causing it to dislocate afterwards. After we got her film and the results of her x-ray, we then came back to the vet clinic and the veterinary doctor did her work right away.
A few minutes after I handed her the x-ray films, she came to me and said that we'll just wait for awhile as their orthopedic read the results first and it didn't took that long when she called me to discussed what happened to AB and that she has a fracture. She said that there are factors to consider why it happened, maybe from falling onto somewhere, vehicular accidents, animal fights, or violence. But the other one who is more focused in surgeries (veterinary surgeon) said that from the looks of it, it is caused by violence or humans.
Before stating what should we do, they first took AB's blood for CBC (Complete Blood Count) test and OMG. It's PHP 550.00 ($10.68) for that, ahhhh! But the results made my thoughts about the price to go away. All are good and there is no infection, so yeah. So happy and it really calmed me down a bit.
As per to what to do to AB, she needs to undergo an immediate surgery. The vet doctor gave me two options for the procedures, Option 1 is the **bone fracture repair** wherein they will pin the fractured bone (just like what humans used to have when encountered a bone fracture, *babakalan*) and it costs PHP 10,000 ($194.14). And on the Option 2 is the **wound repair** whereas her muscles on the femur area will be connected again and the skin will be closed for regeneration. This procedure is less expensive than the first one for just PHP 3500.00 ($67.92). Though the other expenses like for the medicines to be prescribed are excluded on both of the procedure. In short, it will take more than PHP 10,000 and PHP 3500.
Because I don't have PHP 10,000 and that I really can't afford that, I chose the wound repair procedure. Though, the way she walks will be like that forever, limping or *iika-ika*.
I also asked the vet doctor if when it can be done and she said it can be done that time but I can't, coz I only left with PHP 3000.00 that moment. She additionally asked me when is the last time that AB ate and I said by lunch and the vet doctor said that they can't proceed to the procedure right away as AB needs to have a 9-12 hours fasting before the procedure.
As I don't have enough money that afternoon and AB hadn't had a fasting, I said that we'll just come back by Friday (01.21.22) and so they scheduled the procedure that day. The doctor said that I should ready PHP 6000.00 ($116.49) just to make sure coz there has some additional expenses *pa.*
Before we leave, they cleaned AB's wound first and prescribed us the medicines she needs. For now, the vet doctor only required me to buy the anti-biotic and the other three are after the surgery *na lang*. And after more or less 3 hours, we got to leave the vet clinic. Then, here's how AB looks.
There's a bandage on her right foreleg as that is where they got her blood samples and a razored part on her left hindleg where her injury is.
Good thing that they have a **free consultation** today, so I got lessen the bill to pay. Overall, I spent around PHP 1800. 00 for AB today including all the tests done, her medicine, and her other needs.
And, tadaaa! We're done for her check-up. Hoo~ even if I spent thousands (indeed a *nakaka-butas ng* wallet moment), all are worth it. As in! Coz after she got treated, she immediately shown changes. A better ones and she was so behave the whole time, exclude the time of our travel. The vet doctor and RadTech even complimented her that she was a good and behave cat. Oh, the RadTech also asked me if how long had she stays with and I said that more or less 6 years *na* and she said, **"that's why** ***pala*****. She's already a family** ***na.*****"**
When we arrived at home, I said and discussed everything to Mama and Papa and even to my sibs. I am expecting that Mama contradict my action due to my spending, but no. Actually, she didn't even asked how much I spent but rather, pitied AB and took care of her after.
When we are eating, Mama said this .. "***Mas napamahal pa sa'yo si AB ngayon kasi pina-doctor mo na eh. Kapag namatay 'yan, iiyak ka talaga nang sobra.***" And I answered, "*it is just me who will cry and mourn after her?*" But she said, "*of course, we will too but you will surely mourn mooore than us.*" When she said that, I turned my back coz I am teary eyes *na*. I can't imagine that uy~ promise. That's why I brought her to a vet doctor *nga eh*, because I don't want her to be away from me, permanently. So yeah, *pikit-mata na lang sa gastos basta maging maayos lang 'sya*.
So, what will I do now? I will hustle and grind more to earn what the amount that we need for her surgery by Friday. It's not gonna be easy on my part but I will push it, no matter what. That's how I love my baby. ☺
I will thicken my face *na* but I won't beg. Any support will be welcome wholeheartedly, either it be a prayers or what. That'll all appreciated by me and AB. In advance, thank you *na kaagad*. ❤
Will update you, guys when AB's surgery is done. Again, thank y'all. Especially to Rusty, coz I know that he will contribute to this one so much. (●'◡'●)

Mama's Washing Machine: Unlocked
**Hello, everyone! :)**
I'm back again and this time let me share this another achievement that we, our family, had just yesterday. In fact, it should be written yesterday but I was too tired to do so. And, here's my ading @kingofreview that also requested another article for the next progress of this goal.
So, here it is *na*. 💚
`Disclaimer: This article doesn't intend to brag but rather, to flex this blessing.`
Still remember the article that I just wrote and published yesterday, January 17? In that article, I shared this certain goal that our family wants to have. For us, it is not only a need but also an investment to the kind of business or work that Mama has right now. What is it? The title tells it all. Yes, a **washing machine**. For us to have that we need **$102 For Mama's Washing Machine** or also equivalent to 520.00 in Philippine currency. https://read.cash/@imanagrcltrst/102-for-mamas-washing-machine-776dd1e1
The only thing that is holding us back is "*where will we get that $102?*" My parents don't have that amount of money so I volunteered that I will shoulder it first. Mama said that she'll just replace it little by little from her monthly salary as a housekeeper. Yes, she has another sideline. Such a resourceful and hard-smart working woman she is. Though, I didn't answered in that coz it's okay if I didn't get that money back. I'm planning to buy that thing for her *naman talaga*, in the first place eh.
Anyway, back to the topic. About 30 minutes after I published my article, Mama said that we'll go to the City Proper to check the washing machines that I told her the other night. So okay, I prepared myself right away.
Another 30-40 minutes had passed and we're off to go *na*. Coz I have this gut feel that something unexpectedly will about to happen, I told Papa to dropped by at the ATM machine in our community. There, I withdrawn PHP 1900.00 ($36.91) from my bank savings.
**Fast forward ... ⏩**
Maybe around 4:00PM, we arrived at the city proper. We go to Super99 first to check their available washing machines. For approximately 10-15 minutes of checking and all, this machine caught her attention. This is one of the washing machines that I shown her. Apparently, she didn't checked-it out coz it looks like it was stocked for too long.
Next, to the ALLWAYS. Compared to the first establishment, they have more washing machines to offer and most of them are on sale. As I said in my article yesterday, Mama wants that micromatic one. Don't know what's with that and why she likes it so much. Hehe~
After more or less 30-40 minutes of searching and assessing every double washing machines (with dryer) that they have, she came up with a decision. Yes, I didn't meddle with her but I only voiced-out my opinions when I need to. She knows more about that eh. :D
The one that passed her high standards is this **Eureka EWM-850D ELITE** that has the capacity to wash 8.5 kilograms of clothes and all in every cycle. Actually, this is also the one that I am telling her that I like and this is that one that costs $102 or PHP 5200.00. In the first place, she was really torn between the washing machines with 7.5 kg and 8.5 kg, same brand and model. However, she still choose the one with 8.5 kg as it can be used for more clothes and exclude the one with 7.5 kg because they don't have any additional stock. She don't want to get the one that is for viewing and testing as it might possibly have some defects *daw*.
It took almost 10-15 minutes of checking all the specs and features before the item was brought to the counter for billing. *Good thing that the merchandiser and other staffs assigned in that area are so accommodating, jamming, and honest.*
And, tadaaaa! After a lot of planning and even uncountable "*sana* and *sana all*" in our minds, finally. We have it now, looking so-brand new and all. ✨
Because we still need to buy some stocks at the wet market, we just left it at their baggage counter first then we do our next tasks after. As we finished those tasks, we looked for other tricycle that has a carrier as our tricycle can't accommodate the space that it needs.
Then after some minutes of travelling from the city proper to our barangay, tadaaa! **Our newly-brought washing machine is now at home.** 🧡
As Mama and Papa examined it again, Mama said that it is not a Class A. So, okay. *Galing talagang pipili* eh. :D As per its warranty, it has a **1-year warranty** and we just need to present the receipt if something bad happens while we are using it. Oh, I hope there's none and that it will took years upon using. Well, *nasa gumagamit din naman 'yun*. And, Mama knows how to take care of thing so that's a sure ball.
Anyways, here's how it looks inside.
See? My gut feel is right, really right. I just confirmed it when we are on the way to the proper while riding our family service vehicle (tricycle). Mama told me that we'll buy it if it passed her taste and standards. I wondered how will we do that coz I don't have the money *pa* and so I asked her "how and why"*.* Then, she told me that her boss known about our plan and offered her to have an advance from her salary. Because her boss was so persistent, she had no choice but to say yes.
And, yes. We unlocked this one as we took parts of the $102. Here's how:
**$58.28** **(PHP 3000.00)** from Mama and Papa;
**$14.56** **(PHP 750.00)** from anonymous sponsor of Give A Gift; and
**$28.16 (PHP 1450.00)** from yours truly.
As you can remember the Give A Gift that I applied and got in as one of the beneficiaries, that's where the $14.56 came from.
They also added that I should not worry about Mama's advanced salary coz they'll take care of it. Good thing that Papa already have a regular job as a baker in a newly-opened bakery here in our community. Just hoping that he'll manage his salary in a good way.
So, finally. Mama can do her work more easier than before through her much awaited and dream washing machine. If you can just seen the way she smiled yesterday, anyone can tell that it is really a hundred percent contagious smile. *Nakahahawa~*
At last, no more dreaming and *sana all* coz we made it happened already, for real. So, 01.17.2022 should be really marked as a definitely blessed day. **Thanks, G!** 💛
So since that my 17 days earnings in read.cash for the month of January 2022 is still in tucked, I will just used it for AB's consultation at a veterinary clinic tomorrow.
Cheers to this newly-unlocked goal and for more to come *pa.* 🥂
