This is Blue
Can you see the blue color? is it blue right? **Believe me, that is blue.** There's no other hue than blue. If you saw different color then you're contradicting my notion. You will become a menace to me and I will do everything to make you understand that **that color is blue.**
That is an illustration of how society moves today. People with power and ability can render people believe what they are asserting. Due to their power, they can fabricate lies into truth. They can make people believe that that color is Blue. This is happening to our world right now. In which people with influence can speak in front of many people and tell them about their principle. They can persuade the audience due to their flowery words and evidence. Even though there are people who are against their principles, those people can't do anything to resist because they cannot do it, and it can put their lives in danger. When the whole society accepted that fabricated lie, those people who are against that principle can't do anything but abide by it.
This transpired around the world. Those people in government who had powers can manipulate everything in their surroundings. They can persuade the people about what they are saying due to their popularity. One concrete example of it what happened in America when Joe Biden wins the election. Donald Trump doesn't want to accept he didn't win in the election. That is why he organized a public speech telling that the election has been a fraud. Due to their influential background as the ex-president of the United States, many Americans believed in him even though he has no concrete evidence proving that Joe Biden cheated at the election. He made everyone believed that the election is a fraud. It made Americans protesting that the election is not valid contending that Donald Trump wins the election. He's really powerful because he had lots of money and supporters that can make everyone believed whatever he said. There are groups of people who want to obstruct Trump's statements but in the end, they still believe in what Trump asserted.
Why do people choose to believe it even it's false? I cannot answer that with concrete evidence but I'll tell you my assumptions why people still believe the fabricated lie.
Afraid to get involve
In my country-Philippines, there are lots of powerful people that you don't want to encounter due to their wealth and power. One of the reasons why people choose to silent because they are afraid to get involved in it. They will just accept it even though it's not true for the reason that they want to live a peaceful life and once they are opposed to it, their lives will be in danger. This happens to common people in which they have no power to contradict whatever the powerful person said.
Here in the Philippines, there are instances that powerful people can fabricate lies into truth. For an instance, you're an ordinary person and you want some changes in an inadequate political system. You've started to protest about corruption happening to the government. There is a high possibility that your life will be in threat because corrupt officials will be affected and they will plan to make you silent forever or they will use their power and connections to frame-up you. Due to their power, people will start to believe that your a dangerous person and you're a threat to society. They will plant false evidence pointing that you do the crime and it will set you into jail.
This is happening to my country and it makes me worried because powerful people can now control society with the use of power and connections. This is the reason why my countrymen choose to keep silent and just accept the fabricated lie.
Money
How money implicated in this topic?. This is the most common reason why human dignity is lost. Money is one of the important things to live in and without it, you can't buy food, clothes, pay electric bills and pay rent. Due to poverty, people will do anything just to earn money even though it came from evil doing. Powerful people are using money to ascertained people what they are letting out. They know that many people will convince by money. This is the reason powerful people have supporters and followers that will subsidize them if they will execute an action even though it can affect the lives of many people.
They will benefit from it
We can't avoid that wickedness spreads everywhere. Some bad people choose to support the evil doing of powerful people because they know they will benefit from it. They don't care about its outcome to many people because they are thinking for their own sake. They are thinking about how they can use the opportunity if the evil-doing will implement.
I can't believe that there are people like this who do everything just for power and position. They didn't think about the outcome of their actions and just saying what they want to say and it makes people believe in them. People who want to oppose them can't do anything due to their status in society. Even though, this type of evil-doing is widespread in our world. I'm still believing that there are good-hearted people in a powerful position that want to eliminate this type of action in society. I want to see someday that everything is equal and money won't control people anymore. Also, I have a dream that everyone will be centralized. Those powerful people will use their power to help others and alleviate the poverty that happened around the globe.
`I want everyone believe that this yellow not blue.`
If you really loves me, you must give it to me
Hi I'm Marga, I'm already 27 years old, I'm going to tell you a story about my first and last love. Its about a guy I saw when I was in high school. I'm in high school that time while he was in college. Honestly, I have crush on him because he was cute, tall, pretty face, he had cerulean eyes and very gentleman. One time I saw him helping his teacher lifting boxes to deliver in stock room.
At that moment I know I have deep crush on him, but it makes me hopeless in truth that he is 19 while I'm 15. Its very impossible that he will notice me because I know he like those women whose beautiful and same age to him. It makes me realize that I have no chance to him but I still have crush on him.
Everytime we hangout around the school, my friends always teasing me when my crush walking behind us. *"Marga is that your crush?".* It makes me blush not because I feel romantic excitement but I feel shame for myself. I want to shut the mouth of my friends but my crush look at me then smile. It makes my heart pound fast. I don't know what should I do. I want to hide that im blushing but my friends keep teasing me. *Oh my God I feel like I'm going to die because of too much embarrassment*.
I can't hold my feelings anymore, I want to confess my feelings to him thats why I made a letter in which I made a lot of efforts and then write a letter full of confession together with my Facebook name and cellphone number. I don't know what I'm doing, I feel desperate in that part.
In that morning I feel excitement go to school since I'm going to confess my love to my crush. I reach the entrance gate then my heart starts to beat fast when I saw him sitting at the bench. I walk close to him, we have eye contact then it makes me blush so much to the point that my cheeks is going to explode. I approach him then said
*"H-h-hii Kuya".* Then I gave him my confession letter, I'm so embarrassed that moment, I feel like I'm so desperate. It makes me shame more since there are lots of other students looking at me but I don't care atleast I've confess my love. Its OK if he didn't notice me and throw my letter but I'm hoping that he will appreciate it.
I went back to my room then glance him at the window, he's still holding the letter then it makes me sad when he put the letter inside his bag then leave. I feel like I'm gonna cry thats why I went back to my chair then cry. I can't believe that all my efforts and embarrassment that I got is nothing for him. After the class, I went back home then lock myself at my room. I cried a lot until there's a notification pop-up on my phone. I can't believe that he chat on me, my sadness becomes romantic excitement. I don't know but I'm so fragile when it comes to him. I open my messenger then open his message.
*Hi I've already read your letter, first I want to say sorry if I don't give thanks to you while ago because I didn't expect that someone will give me letter. I do appreciate it and thank you. I saw your Facebook name here on letter and your in my friends list thats why I message you.*
It makes my heart beat so fast after I've read his message. I jump at the top of my bed due to so much romantic excitement. My mother scolded because im too noisy at my room. I lie down on my bed then answer his message.
We've became close to each other in chat but were strangers in person. I don't know why he's avoiding me in school then he ignores me. I don't have courage to talk to him because I feel ashamed if I'm going to approach him. We are strangers in personal but were very close in chat. 1 month later, he told to me that he like me. It makes me surprised and shuddered at what he admitted. He ask me if he could woo me. I agreed because I was very vulnerable to him, then after a week I already gave him the sweet "Yes".
He was my first boyfriend and I don't know how to handle relationship. When I'm at school, he always approaching me but there's a little bit of awkwardness. He was professional in school but when were at outside of school he was sweet and caring to me. He treating me like a true girlfriend even though we have 4 years gap. Some of my friends telling me that he's just making fun on me, I don't want to believe it since I know that he loves me maybe?.
I asked him that question and he just hold my hand and kissed me on forehead. He always doing that to me when I'm asking him strange questions. We always meet every Saturday and everytime we meet he is asking for something. He always asking for kiss and hugs, I'm always giving it to him because I love him very much. Until it became deeper and deeper to the point that he's asking to kiss me on lips. I'm so inloved to him that I agree to it. He's my first kiss and I'm afraid that he could ask something more. Then the time comes and he asked the most thing I want to avoid. He asked me if I'm still Virgin then I answered him the truth.
Its weekend when he message on me, he asked me if I can meet him, and I'm afraid on what he's asking, there's a doubt in my mind since I don't want to loose it. He's asking me to meet him and we will do it. I'm doubting on what he's wishing and told him that im not ready for it. I cs only give him kiss and hugs but I can't loose my virginity. While he's chatting I sense he became annoyed and told to me.
***"If you truly love me, you must give it to me".***
That's the moment that I cried a lot, I love him but he's asking to much to me and I don't want to give it to him until we're get married. He's still pushing me to do it with him. My tears are streaming in my face then I asked him a question.
***"Do you really love me? or you just want my body? Huhuhu I'm sorry but I can't give it to you it is better if we're going to break up if you keep asking for it."***
Then after that he didn't reply to my last message, I drop my phone then cry. I'm in pain right now because of a man that wishing to get the most part of me I want to preserve. I want to curse him when we meet in one place then slap him. I receive notification that he chat on me, I don't want to open me but there's a part of me want to glance it. He chatted.
***Sorry for what I've done to you, I just want to measure what kind of girl you are. I don't want to do this but I want to know you more and I'm so blessed that your a strong girl. I adore you for what you respond to my wish, the fact is im doing this to all the girls I love but they agrees to it thats why I'm breaking up to them but your different. I love you so much and sorry. Can you go out in your room? I'm waiting here outside of your house.***
After I've read his message, my tears starts to drop again, I glance at the window then I saw him waving. I immediately fix myself then approach to him. My mother welcomed him and he introduced himself as my boyfriend. Hopefully my mother agreed but we must prioritize our study first. He was the man that everyone is dreaming and im lucky to find that kind of man.
Now we are married and we have 3 children's, He became a successful engineer while I became an accountant. I leave on my job to took care our children and now I'm happy to live in a normal life. I'm so blessed that I found a man that truly loves me and treat me well everyday.
Ikalawang Kabanata
Nang makapasok na ako sa loob ng unibersidad bigla akong kinilabutan sa aking nakikita. Ang dalawang tuhod ko ay nanginginig at ang mga balahibo ko sa katawan ay nagsitayuan. Hindi ako makapaniwala sa aking nakikita, totoo ba ito?. Sinampal ko pa ang aking pisngi upang malaman kung ako ay nananaginip, pero nakaramdam ako ng sakit. Ibig sabihin nasa realidad ako. Ngunit hindi ko alam kung realidad nga ba talaga ito, hindi ako makapaniwalang *nakikita ko ang sarili ko ngayon.*Nakikita ko ang totoong ako na nakaupo sa may upuan na parang may inaantay na darating. Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali ako nga ang taong iyan, kabisado ko ang hubog ng katawan ko at kung paano ako kumilos. Ako nga ang taong iyan, ngunit kung nandito ako sa katawang iyo, Sino ang nasa katawan na iyan? tanong ko sa isipan ko.
Nais ko sanang lapitan ang totoong ako ngunit bigla na lang may tumawag sa aking pangalan, Ely halika na baka mapagalitan na naman tayo ni Mrs. Cruz dahil late na naman tayo sa klase niya sabi sa akin ng isang babae na hindi ko kilala, pero pamilyar siya dahil nakikita ko siya na kausap sa *Messenger* ng totoong may-ari ng katawan na ito. Sumama na lang ako sa kanya dahil hindi ko naman alam kung nasaan ang *classroom* ng totoong may-ari ng katawan na ito. Habang papalayo ako dun sa totoong ako hindi padin mawala wala sa isip ko ang nasaksihan ko.
Habang nasa loob ako ng klase, parang lumilipad ang isip ko at hindi ko namalayan na tinatawag na pala ng guro ang aking apelyido. Sanchez!!!!! mukhang malalim ata ang iniisip mo, sagutin mo ang tinatanong ko. Bigla akong kinabahan at hindi ko alam kung ano ang tanong buti na lang at inulit ng guro ang tanong kaya nasagot ko naman.Nagulat ang buong klase at napatingin silang lahat sa akin para bang hindi sila makapaniwala na nakasagot ako, pagkalipas ng 40 minuto sa wakas natapos din ang klase. Nagpaalam na ang guro at hindi ko alam na *recess* na pala, may mga lumapit na mga kababaihan sa akin at gulat na gulat sila. Kailan kapa naging magaling sa *Math* Ely bakit mo alam kung anong *formula* ang gagamitin para masagot ang nasa pisara? Bigla akong nagulat wag mo sabihing hindi katalinuhan ang babaeng ito? napangiti na lang ako sa kanila at inaasar asar na nagbagong buhay na ako.
Buti na lang nakatakas ako sa mga tanong na hindi ko naman alam kung anong isasagot dahil nga hindi naman ako ang tunay na Elyzabeth, isa lamang akong lalaki na napunta sa maling katawan at napadpad sa mundong hindi ko maintindihan. Inaya nila akong pumunta sa *canteen* para kumain at hindi naman ako makatanggi dahil siguradong kaibigan ang mga ito ni Elyzabeth, heto na naman kailangan kong magpanggap na babae at maglakad na mala Maria Clara, naiinis ako dahil sobrang ikli ng pambaba ko kaya halos makita ang kaluluwa ko,bukas na bukas talaga magsusuot na ako ng mas mahabang pambaba para hindi ako pinagtitinginan ng ibang estudyante. Habang nasa *canteen* kami ay nakita ko ang totoong sarili ko na naglalaro ng *badminton,* naiingit ako parang gusto kong hamunin ang sarili ko sa larong badminton, kaya pagkatapos kong kumain ay dumiretso ako sa *quadrangle* para hamunin ang sarili ko na maglaro. Hinubad ko ang *jacket* na suot ko at itinali sa bewang ko para matakpan ang pambaba ko.
Lumapit ako dun sa kalaban ng sarili ko at tumitig lang ako sa kanya, mukhang alam niya na gusto kong hiramin ang raketa na meron siya. Siguro ay nadaan siya sa ganda ng mukha na meron ako kaya pinahiram niya ako, ngumiti ako dun sa totoong ako at sinimulang ibato ang bola, kabisado ko ang galawan ng sarili ko sa larong ito kaya madali lang para sakin ang talunin ang sarili ko. Pero hindi ko inaasahan na parehas kaming magaling at walang natatalo, inaasahan ko na yan dahil magaling naman talaga ako sa larong ito. Pagkatapos ng ilang minuto ay ibinalik ko na agad ang raketa dun sa lalaki at bumalik sa *canteen.* Pagbalik ko doon ay nakatulala na nakatingin sa akin ang mga kaibigan ni Elyzabeth parang hindi sila makapaniwala na naglalaro ng *badminton* ang totoong may -ari ng katawan na ito.
Saan ka natutong maglaro ng *badminton* Elyzabeth? tanong ng isang babae, sinabi ko na lang na nag-eensayo ako sa bahay kaya marunong ako. Umupo na ako sa tabi nila at nagpapanggap, nagpatuloy ang mga usapan nila at sa tuwing may tinatanong sila sa akin ay tumatango na lang ako at nakikitawa sa kanila. Kailangan ko na talaga pag-aralan kung paano nabubuhay si Elyzabeth, mga tao sa paligid nito at mga hilig nito para hindi ako mapaghalataan ng mga tao na hindi ako ang tunay na Elyzabeth. Pagkatapos naming kumain ay bumalik na kami ng *classroom.*
Pagdating namin sa *classroom* may lalaki na nakaabang sa pintuan at parang may inaantay, biglang nagtilian ang mga estudyante at nagsitinginan sila sa akin, saka ko lang napagtanto na nanliligaw pala ang lalaking ito sa totoong may-ari ng katawan na si Elyzabeth, hindi ko alam kung anong gagawin ko, parang gusto kong sabihin sa kanya na di tayo talo, lalaki din ako pre, pero hindi pwede kailangan ko parin na gampanan ang pagiging isang Elyzabeth. Natigil lang ang eksena ng dumating ang isang guro, ito pala ang guro namin sa Kemika, agad nag-sialisan ang mga estudyante at bumalik sa kaniya-kaniyang *classroom*. Habang nagkaklase sa Kemika ay biglang may pinasagutan sa amin ang guro, isang pagsasanay. Isinulat ko ang aking pangalan at nagtanong ako sa katabi kong babae kung anong petsa na ngayon. Lubos kong ikinagulat ang nalaman ko *nasa taong 2017 palang ako.*
Abangan....

Kuwento na di ko alam ita-title
Ang story na ito ay gawa gawa ko lang, medyo nagkaroon ako ng confidence na magsulat. Di ko kase alam kung paano gagawin yung daloy ng story pero bahala na. Practice makes better naman eh.
Nagising ako mula sa isang mahimbing na pagkakatulog, minulat ko yung mata ko at napansin ko na parang kakaiba ang paligid ko. Hindi naman ito bahay namin ah sabi ko sa sarili ko. Inamoy ko pa yung kumot ko at amoy babae, umupo narin ako sa kama at napansin ko na pink yung kama. Oh my ano ba nangyayare. Pumikit pikit pa ako baka kase namamalikmata lang ako pero hindi eh.
Bumangon ako sa kama para icheck kung ano ang nangyayare,tumingin ako sa paa ko at braso, nagtataka ako kung bakit parang pambabae ang katawan na meron ako. Kinapa kapa ko pa katawan ko at may nakapa akong dalwang umbok, pinisil pisil ko pa at nasaktan ako. Doon ako kinabahan, hala ka naging babae na ba ako? Dali Dali akong pumunta sa may salamin at doon ko na nakumpirma na babae nga talaga ako. Grabe yung pawis ko panaginip ba ito? sinampal ko pa sarili ko at nasaktan talaga ako. Tinitigan ko ang katawan na ito sa salamin at ang ganda ng may-ari ng katawan na ito.
Sinilip ko ulit yung dalawang umbok na meron sa katawan na ito tsaka pinisil pisil baka kase panaginip talaga, pero hindi eh. Napabuntong hininga na lang ako at napaupo sa kama. Hala ka pati boses ko babae na din halaaaa ano bang nangyayare. Napatitig ako sa salamin at dun ako kinilabutan ng may maalala ako. PATAY NA PALA AKOOOO!!!.
Flashback:
Busy ako nun sobra madami kaming ginagawa at malapit na ang thesis defense kaya aligaga talaga ako. Kailangan kase namin na asikasuhin ang lahat para maperfect. Problemado din ako nun kaya wala ako sa tamang huwesto, naghalo na yung heartbreak at problema sa school. Nakipagbreak ang girlfriend ko dahil wala na akong time sa kanya, siguro inakala niya na meron na akong iba kaya siya na ang sumuko. Sinusubukan kong ayusin ang meron kami pero ayaw na niya kaya siguro ganun ang impact ng sakit saken.
Kakatapos lang namin magmeeting nun para sa thesis defense namin at sobrang pagod ako, prang gusto ko ng umuwi at magpahinga na lang habambuhay. Wala ako katinuan habang naglalakad ako, marami akong problemang iniisip tapos heartbroken pa kaya hindi ko alam kung ano ang mga nasa paligid ko. Naalala ko patawid ako nun sa kalsada at hindi ko namalayan na may paparating na kotse kaya nabundol ako, dinala pa ako sa ospital hanggang sa puting ilaw na lang ang nakikita ko.
End of Flashback
Kinilabutan tlaga ako kase alam ko patay na ako, nasa afterlife na ba ako? tanong ko sa sarili ko siguro nasa parallel dimension lang ako. Sinagip ba ako ng mga aliens? Sobrang dami kong katanungan at gumugulo sa isip ko. Inilibot ko yung paningin ko sa paligid ko at nakita ko yung cellphone na nakapatong sa table. Kinuha ko ito at merong password, need lang ng fingerprint, buti nalang fingerprint ang kailangan kaya naunlock ko yung phone. Chineck ko kung sino ang may ari ng katawan na ito. Doon ko nalaman na Elyzabeth Sanchez ang pangalan ng may ari ng katawan nato.
Chineck ko din ang messages at background niya, dun ko nalaman na kaschoolmate ko pala itong babae pero bat hindi ko siya nakikita sa school. Inopen ko yung messenger at nagulat ako sa dami ng messages sa kanya. SANA ALL. Karamihan puro lalaki na nagchachat tapos mga nanliligaw, parang sarap nilang pagtripan pero wag na baka maapektuhan yung tunay na may-ari ng katawan na ito.
Nagulat ako bigla ng may kumatok sa pintuan, agad ko yung binuksan at bumungad sakin ang isang magandang babae na nasa 40 plus na, siguro siya yung mama nitong tunay na may ari ng katawan. Ngumiti siya sakin at niyaya na ako kumain kase daw may klase pa ako mamayang 10 AM, dun ako nagulat kase di ako ready na pumasok at kilalanin ang mundo na ito. Magulo pa ang lahat sa akin. Tulala lang ako habang kumakain tapos tinanong ako ng nanay ng tunay na may ari ng katawan na ito kung OK lang ba ako tapos tinawag ko siyang Mama, kase naman hindi ko alam kung ano tawag sa kanya ng babaeng ito.
Nagtaka siya kung bakit nagiba yung tawag ko sa kanya, nagpalusot na lang ako hahaha dun kase ako magaling. Pagkatapos ko kumain kailangan ko na daw maghanda para pumasok kaya bumalik ako sa kuwarto. Sobrang taranta ako kase hindi naman ako babae sa dati kong buhayyyyyyyy. Hindi ko alam kung paano kumilos bilang babae pero bahala na. Habang inaayos ko yung sarili ko sobrang naawawkward ako kase naman hindi naman ganto ang katawan na meron talaga ako. Ang dami ring kemeng isusuot bago yung uniform di tulad ng sa lalaki na isang bagsakan lang OK na.
Pagkatapos ko magbihis ng uniform tumingin ako sa salamin, bumaba na lang ang balikat ko kase hindi naman ako sanay sa damit na ito tapos ang ikli pa ng palda. Tapos yung mga gamit ko puro pambabae. Napakamot na lang ako sa ulo ko at ang galaw ko pang lalaki talaga. Kailangan ko bang kumembot keyboard habang naglalakad?, ahhh basta bahala na si batman.
Pagkababa ko ng hagdan, sinalubong ako ng Mama nitong babae tapos inaya na ako sumakay ng kotse. Hala mayaman pala talaga ang babaeng itong at pamilya niya. Pangiti ngiti na lang ako at naweweirduhan na talaga saken ang mama ng babaeng ito. Sa buong biyahe daming kinukwento ang mama nitong babae pero ako ngiti lang at tango ang sagot kase naman hindi ko naman kilala kung ano pangalan ng mama nitong babae at mga tao sa paligid niya. Nang makarating na kami sa school, hindi na bago saken ito kase naman dito ako nagaaral yung tunay na ako ah. Nang bumaba na ako at kumaway dun sa mama ng babaeng to dumiretso na ako loob ng school at may nakita ako na KINILABUTAN AKO NG SOBRAAA!!!.
Tingin niyo ano kaya ang dahilan kung bakit ako kinilabutan, sa susunod na kuwento na ipagpapatuloy kase di kopa alam buong flow ng story pero sana nagustuhan niyo kahit corny. Medyo hindi pa siya ayos kase free writing siya pero once na nabuo ko na yung flow sana naman maganda. Hanggang dito na lang muna.
Nagmamahal pero di minahal, iniwan pero umaasa paring may babalikan.🤣🤣

Badminton: How I bought my racket?
I'm going to share you the things I love to do, especially my hobbies. So just sit, relax and enjoy my article, im apologizing for my English since im not fluent and my vocabulary is not deep.
One of my favorite hobby is playing badminton, it starts when we got here on Manila and I saw my neighbors playing this game. It got my interest thats why I try to play this game. At first, im not good enough to hit the shuttlecock, sometimes I can't hit it thats why my opponent always laughing at me.
Photo by **Vladislav Vasnetsov** from **Pexels** https://www.pexels.com/@vladvictoria?utm_content=attributionCopyText&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pexels https://www.pexels.com/photo/person-holding-shuttlecock-2202685/?utm_content=attributionCopyText&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pexels
At school, everytime we are in vacant time, I'm always sitting at the bench of our quadrangle to watch other students playing badminton. I wanttp join them but I have no racket, im ashamed to borrow since I didn't know them. I have no choice but to watch them play but the good part of watching them is I learned a lot about this game and how the rules work on it.
Everytime we have a P.E class, my classmates always bringing badminton set so that they can play on quadrangle, I remember one time, I'm watching them playing and I'm waiting to borrow my classmates racket. Hopefully, she is kind to lend her racket. I'm so happy that time when I borrowed a racket then starts to play. From that moment, I enhanced my skills in playing badminton.
I learned a lot of things about this game and its easy for me to play this because I'm thin and my body is not heavy to jump when attempt to smash. Sometimes other players amaze on my style but I'm humble hehehe I just continue playing. When I made errors I immediately apologizing to my opponent then continue to play. For almost 4 years I'm playing badminton, it gives a lot of knowledge to me and it makes me strong when it comes to this game, the problem is its quick for me to feel exhaust then my stamina is easy to decrease, maybe because I don't take exercises and I don't warm up when I'm engage in this game.
Here comes the fun part, after 4 years of borrowing racket and shuttlecock, finally I've bought already my own racket. Its my dream to have a badminton set so that I don't need to borrow anymore. I bought my racket at Shopee and it cost me 1 thousand, I assumed that its 2 pieces of badminton racket but im wrong, when its delivered to me its only one but im not disappointed because I know its original. I've asked my friends and show them my racket if it's original and they confirmed that its original.
The only thing I didn't know is badminton racket has classifications and tension need to ask before to buy. I don't know that I need to ask for its tension HAHA, I just bought it but im still lucky that I've bought a racket with right tension and its so light. Its easy to handle and swing.
How I bought this badminton racket?
Honestly for almost 4 years, I can't afford to buy my own racket because I have no money but you know how I bought this racket? its because of **Read.cash,** with the use of money I got here on read.cash and save it on my coins.ph, I ordered this racket on shopee with the use of money I earned here on read.cash thats why I'm so blessed that I found this website. The truth is I've already bought many things with use of money I earned here. I'm very thankful that I found this website in which you can earn money free and it enhance your writing skills.
Yesterday me and friend went to Heritage park to play badminton, i want to test the durability of my racket. We've played there but someone joined our play thats why we can't enjoy the game and we can't show our full potential. I'm proficient when it comes to one on one but we can't do anything but to let them join. After we played I choosed to rest because my body are aching and im already exhausted. I forgot to bring water that why I'm dehydrated and we searched for water.
When I got home, I felt like my body is in pain thats why I take a nap and fell asleep. Today, my body is totally in pain and my arms is numb. Its because I forced my body and I don't play for almost 8 months due to pandemic but its worth it. I enjoyed again playing badminton. Were planning to play again in Arca South so that we can enhance our skills in badminton.
Thats all thank you for reading my article. How but you? Whats your hobbies?🙂🙂
Pi Network: Future Cryptocurrency
Are you familiar in Pi Network? If you've already installed this app, do you believe that this app will be future cryptocurrency? What is Pi network? Pi Network is a cryptocurrency that allows you to mine new coin called Pie nodes on your phone by simply pressing a button every 24 hours.
There are users who's asking, if Pi Network is a real cryptocurrency. The answer for that question is **Not yet,** Pi Network is a project that aims to create and launch a new cryptocurrency called **Pi in Three phases** and currently the project is in **Phase 2.**
According to core team we will see phase 3 when it becomes real cryptocurrency within next 12 months so maybe we can see it at the **end of 2021 or in early 2022.**
Another question from other people is,**do you actually mine pie coins on your phone?** the answer is **No** because your not actually mining the coin on your phone unlike Bitcoin which used proof of works in which it involves calculations, for an instance in a computer and dedicated ASIC miners. Pi coins use the **stellar consensus** protocol and that basically means, Pi coins supply can be pre-created by the Pi Core team so all coins are pre-exist, your not mining them but receive rewards everytime you push the buttons in Pi Network Application.
I've encircled that part because it is the button need to press every 24 hours. I've joined Pi Network last 2 weeks but now I've gained already **48.5 Pi coins.** Once you push the button you received coins which credited to your accunt for completing the 24 hours mining session and after 24 hours you need to push the button again.
The beauty of Pi Network is even if your offline,**it automatically earn coins within 24 hours session**. Maybe your asking, why do you need to push it everyday? The answer is in order to pie network succeed in end of 2020 or early 2021 they need an active community. They need to test if the users are active because if they don't do this their project would fail and be dead in water.
They want to make sure that million users are up to date and involved in that project. Also, updates can be seen on screens once the application opened everyday, it is good so that users can became updated if they will launch the phase 3 of project.
Some people says that Pi Network is a **Pyramid scheme or a multi level marketing scheme** because new users receive bonus when somebody signs up with your referral code but you'll realize that high networks need huge amount of active users once they achieve Phase 3.
Once they have millions of active users they have a chance that Pi Coin actually establishes itself as a currency like planned in White papers of Pi Network, you must read the white papers of Pi network because it can make you understand about plan of core team.
Thats why they are giving users an **incentives** for inviting new users, and inviting more users can increase also your incentives. It also helps the Pi Ecosystem since once Pi network have many active users, there's high possibility that it establish itself as a currency in the market.
KYC stands for **know your customer** and it pretty much means you have to prove that you have one verified Pi account, then if you have multiple accounts they will be detected and their coins get burned not just on fake accounts but those bonus you've got from fake accounts will get burn. It is to ensure that Pi coins is mined by verified users. That's why Pi Network needs KYC process, it is better since many people are making multiple accounts just to earn faster and they gain huge unfair advantage to Pi Network and it will affect the whole Pi economy.
KYC is success for core team and everyone must give them credits for that. Also, users don't need ID, driver license or any ID's just to verify their identity. Instead core team involves **Third party company which is Yoti,** many people believes that its not legit because of its bad reviews but if you read the certification of Yoti you'll really found that they are legit. Yoti was chosen by core team since when the personal information in Passport and Id's will verified by Yoti, no one can see it except you because Yoti had strong security.
To be precise, once Pi network asked you to complete your KYC process and link it with your Yoti account, Pi Network will receive basic informations such as Name, Date of Birth, Mobile phone number, email address, gender, etc.
Another indication that Pi Network is not a scam is, Yoti actually charges Pi Network for each verification. So far Pi Network provides **100,000 verification slots**, even though they will get discount they will pay between 50,000 to 100,000 pounds just to provide those KYC slots.
I believe that in the future Pi Network will become successful and will establish as a new currency, it will have a value that will surpass all the existing cryptocurrency today. To those who don't believe in Pi network, I want to tell you that Pi Network is not a scam, try to look at the white papers of this project then search everything about Pi Network and you'll discover that this is Legit, its an opportunity to save a cryptocurrency that will boom in the future. For those who believe that its a scam, you must provide an evidence that will prove your accusations. You must show strong evidence that will make people believe that this project is a scam or else just support this project and join in Pi Network.
Wattpad
How do you define reading? is it interesting or boring? If your reading a book what type of book you usually read? Since ancient times there are lots of books have been published and some of them are considered relics, those books contain important information about the past and history, there also books which talks about everything. Books have different forms it can be history, a novel, educational book, life inspirational books andsome of it contains journey of a person.
In 21st century, books can be seen anywhere, it can buy on shops and even books in library can be borrow for free. It really shows that knowledge can be learn anywhere but it depends on the person on how they deal and learn those knowledge. We can consider that books is a form of knowledge, since we learned in school with the use of books.
There are lots of famous authors in the past that written a novel in which everyone known right now, some of them are born in Renaissance era and published a novel that contains meaningful messages. For an instance the famous novel titled Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare. It contains a love story between two person which came from two rival family, despite of their family conflict they still loved each other but it ends in a tragic way, they died while lying in arms of each other. Another famous novel which written by our hero Dr. Jose Rizal is titled Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo.
In this novel Dr. Jose Rizal pointed out those anomaly happened during the colonization of Spaniards, it written there how Spanish government and Prayles treated Filipinos as Indios, Rizal also pointed out how Filipinos accepted the Spanish culture and turned away their identity. After Rizal executed in Bagumbayan, Filipinos Nationalism awaken and they started to fight against Spaniards, because of this novels many Filipinos spared their lives to earn freedom. Until now in the Philippines this two novels is part of the curriculum and students are required to read it or make a play about this two novel.
There are many creative authors right there but they have not enough ability to publish their own books, they have stories that can inspire others and stories that contain horror things. Thats why **Technology** help those normal writers create their stories and unleash every ideas in their minds, one of the platforms that help those normal writers is what called **Wattpad**.
Wattpad is an app in which you can read novels and stories that have different genres, it can be romance, fiction, non-fiction, horror, fantasy etc. Many aspiring writers are publishing their novels there and you can freely read those stories. The beauty of **Wattpad** is, you can freely write stories without restrictions, as long as you have an ideas, your only limit is your imagination.
I've joined wattpad since 2018, honestly I try to write there but my ideas is not connected and I need a deep inspiration to create a good novel. It takes a year before I returned to wattpad, my friends inspired me to read some stories. Honestly, **Wattpad** helps me to cope up with my problems and stress. Everytime I feel lonely and sad, I open my wattpad and read stories, the first story that I've read is **Possesive Series 1 written by Gina ng Cecelib,** im so curious at start, why many female talks about this story, that time I don't know what possessive means, because of my curiosity I read that story and now I understand.
Actually, those stories are pretty good, it teach good values and proper positions and how to deal in bed hahah, for me its not bad to read those type of stories because it opens the mind about those things and in times that your engage in that situation, your not innocent enough to know what's happening. My most favorite part of that is book of Train Wolkzbin and Krisz Romero, I loved the flow of the story and how they loved each other, the fun part of this novel is every main character in the story had unique ways on how they deal in intercourse.
You know what there's a novel that makes me fell inlove in writing, that novel have titled **I love you since 1892,** this novel makes me cry, laugh and believe that love has no boundaries, even time can't stop the love of two people. Its about a girl which have a bad attitude, she was teleported back in Spanish era, at first she was very confused until she totally accepted her situation.
Her life changed when she met Juanito Alfonso, she fell inlove with this guy and they loved each other. He conflicts began and their relationship have been tested but no matter how conflicts separate them apart, destiny always find away for them to meet again. This story is also interesting since Juanito were killed in original diary of Carmelita, thats why Carmela's mission is to save Juanito and find the culprit but I didn't expect the culprit in the story, I don't want to spoil you can read it if you want. In the end Carmela came back to the future with tears in her eyes, she became a professor and teaching history subject. The history also changed in their family because there are lots of things distorted when she is in past.
In overall, wattpad makes every person happy and thrill in every stories they've read. It is the way to escape the reality of life, wattpad makes everyone forget problems temporarily and teleport to the world in which everytime is okay and full of love, sorrow, sadness and thrill. Being a writer and reader in wattpad can help to gain knowledge and use that skill to become successful. Always remember to love those person who engage in wattpad because there are type of people who knows how to deal in every situation of life.
When Death Fell in Love to Life: II
After 1 month, those in my rows became friends, in all group activities that the professor gave, we're together. It's Saturday and it's our vacant day, I thought to go to the mall to buy a new book since I already finish the last novel that I have. I pack up my things and money and went to the terminal of the jeepney. While inside the jeep I wear my earphones then listen to music, after 15 minutes we reach the destination and everyone is got off on the jeep.
I'm at the entrance of the mall, it's nice to see this beautiful mall because our company owns it, I have also a special card that anything I bought is free that's why no matter how expensive I spend it's still free, but I don't want to use that card since mall cashier will recognize me. It's a special card for Alvarez Family.
At the distance, I notice that there's a person that's familiar in my eyes, oh my it's Lhaine, I would have avoided her but she already noticed me, she was approaching me, then here we go again, the time slowed, she is the only person I can see. I can't deny that she was very beautiful and a perfect girl. Her cerulean-almond eyes are looking at me, her soft lips attract me to kiss it and her face as beautiful as a rose.
The truth is this feeling is not what I feel in other girls but it's different for Lhaine, his aura is also familiar to me like we met in the past but I didn't understand. I came back to reality when she talks to me.
"David, why are you here? Is this the meeting place of your girlfriend?" then laugh
"N-No, there something I want to buy"
A silence form between us, its very awkward to talk to her since we're not very close, Hannah and Samantha is her very close friends. To avoid this awkwardness, I ask her if why she's here.
"I'm looking for a new release book, I want to look for its price so that I can start to save money for it"
" I'm also searching for a new novel, are you going to Bookstore? let's go together?"
I don't know where did I get that courage to ask her, it's like my lip talks itself. I didn't expect that she will come with me then we look for near the bookstore and start to browse.
I saw a familiar book that the same book Lhaine is reading on the first day, I try to look what's its content and it makes me laugh. Lhaine approaches me then I show to her the book.
"Are you looking for this?"
It's obvious on her face that he was surprised and feel ashamed.
"N-No, I was looking for other books"
"Haha I know you're looking for it, it is the new release? I saw you on the first day that your reading it's part 20, so tell me how many books do you have now and finished reading?"
(Shamefaced)" All of them, are you happy now?"
Then she turns back now, I know she likes to get that book but she pretends to return it on the bookshelf. I get that book then walk around the store looking for a new novel. Then I noticed a book which had a mysterious title.
*In mind*
"When Death Fell I love to life?"
My hand is approaching that book when I noticed that there's a girl which want that book too.
"Did you like the book too, Lhaine?"
"Hmmm, no I don't like it you can take it"
She attempts to turn back again but this time I stopped her.
"We can share this book if you want? Can you tell me why you like this book?"
"Its title makes me interested and I think that novel has something to say to me, but I have no enough money to buy it, did you see the price?"
When I look for the price, it makes me surprise how expensive this book is, I like this book and Lhaine also want it that's why I pick it up. I notice that Lhaine roam again around the store and she came back to the shelf where she looking for the book that I got. I suddenly smile then approach her.
(Raise the book)"Are you looking for this?, I know this is the book your searching for don't worry, every one of us hides a secret and your secret is safe to me (Wink)".
Then she turns back again, I don't know what she felt I just want to tease her. She goes to the counter to pay for the book she got, I've also fall in line next to her. After I pay the books, I approach close to her.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you, I just want to say that it's not bad to read those type of books, btw here's the book, I bought it for you. I know you want it"
There's no reply from her, she received the book without a single word comes from her lips, I smile at her and ask her.
"(Smile) Are you hungry? Common let's eat it's my treat."
"No I'm fine, I'm still full, thanks"
(Stomach rumbled)
"Haha I think your stomach says you not, don't worry it's my treat and all free"
It takes a long conversation before I convince her, it's really hard to convince this girl. We went to a near Korean restaurant and I order lots of food.
"Btw David why you chose this restaurant?"
"Because you loved the stuff about Koreans, that's why this restaurant might bring you to Korea"
After I say that she has no response again, I look at her but she averted her gaze. I can't understand this girl is she abnormal? The silence was broken when our order came, I pick the food I want then I'll give the rest to her.
(Surprised)"Hey! I can't eat all of these, why you ordered a lot of foods then give it to me?"
(Smile)"I just want to make sure that you'll be satisfied with the food"
I don't know but she averted her gaze again and look at the food, am I making her mad again?.
"Hey, David? Do we have money to pay all of these?"
While saying those words, she was looking at the food and I know she is hungry and want to eat.
"Oh no I forgot I have no money left because I used it to pay for those books"
(Surprised) "WHATTTTTTTT!!!!"
"Hahaha lower your voice, don't worry I have enough money to pay all of these (wink)."
I saw her sigh deeply then starts to eat, I stare at her while eating, I can't believe that she was ready for food, it makes me smile whenever I look at her while eating. I don't know but it's the first time that I've become comfortable with one girl, I've been hangout with other girls but the feeling when I'm with Lhaine is different. I'm staring at her and when she noticed that I'm looking at her, she also looks at me badly.
After we finished the food, we take out those remaining then get out from that restaurant. I can saw happiness in face of Lhaine then it's time to go home, I felt sad because I want to enjoy more moments with this girl.
"Thanks for the treat David and this book also, (stares badly) Hey about what you found about me, if our other friends find it I will never forgive you".
" Don't worry your secret is safe to me, until the end of the world (wink)."
She didn't respond again, then she smiles and goes away, while she was getting away from me, there's a conscience in my mind saying that I need to do something to make sure that she's safe, I ran towards her then approach her.
"Oh I forgot I need also to commute, I'll come with you".
(Nodding) "Ok."
We went to the terminal of the jeep and fall in line, we wait a couple of minutes before we get a ride. I'm sitting beside Lhaine and I can feel her shoulder pressing mine, I don't know why I feel like an electric shock but I'm acting like I'm not affected. The jeep stops and Lhaine get out from the jeep, my feet walk on their own and follow Lhaine.
"Do we have the same street?"
(Thinking for Excuse) Ahmmmm...I need to pee and I can't take it anymore".
(Sigh)"Ok we have a bathroom you can use it".
She starts to walk then I follow her when we reach their house, I'm amazed at how their life simple is, I'm always dreaming of this type of life in which I have no responsibility need to do. My imagination fades when Lhaine asks me to enter.
"Welcome to our house, our bathroom is at the end."
I've followed her instructions then I get inside the house I saw a young boy, watching television. I smile at him then he shouts loud.
"Mama! Ate Lhaine brings her boyfriend here!"
Lhaine comes towards the boy then covers his mouth, then a lady comes from kitchen walks toward us.
"Who's this guy Lhaine, is he your boyfriend?"
I saw Lhaine surprised. I want to laugh at her reaction but she started at me badly then she starts to explain to her mother. After she explains, her mother welcomes me and point me in the direction of C.R. I don't know but, indeed, I'm peeing and after I finished, I saw her mother preparing juice for me and Lhaine looking at me badly just like she wants to say that I need to leave now but I stay there for a while and play with his younger brother. After I finish the juice, I ask permission from her mother to leave. Also, I look at Lhaine then smile and her reply is a poker face.

Death is the thing that no one wants to talk about because people find it scary to become a topic. It is part of life that no one can escape not prevent, it will come at an unexpected time and it can get the life of a person without a permit but it's the reality, mankind is mortal in which we will die maybe in old age, sickness and sometimes some unlucky people will die because of an accident.
For me, it's not the things that I fear because I believe that the more you fear death, the more it comes to you. That's why in my everyday life I enjoy every moment that I have since maybe tomorrow death will come to life, the important to me is I enjoying my life and do the things I love.
If I die tomorrow or in the future, I want to write this article for those people whose important in my life, friends, family, relatives, and even the girl I love. I want to give them something and I have a wish for them.

First I want to say sorry for my family, especially to my sister. I know you sacrifice everything for us and you didn't care about how life hard is and you always working hard so that we have food to eat. I witness all your sacrifice to us and I'm so lucky that I have a sister like you. I'm so sorry for everything that I do, I know I made a lot of mistakes but you didn't surrender to us.
We experienced a lot of struggles and problems but you're still brave and strong to handle that situation. I know we have no parents that can take care of us but you stand us our mother and father and give us all the things that we need. Even though, your having hard times in your job and you feel like you want to surrender but you're still fighting for us, you think of us before yourself.
My dear sister, I know that I didn't tell you any sweet words and there are times that I didn't give thanks to you. I want you to know that I appreciate all your efforts to us and someday all your sacrifices will become worth it. Thank you for everything, I hope you can obtain a healthy body and strong spirit to conquer all the problems you will face if your reading this maybe I'm already dead but always think that if someone loses there's someone new that will come.
Also, don't cry if I die I know that God has a plan for why there are people who leave earth and go to heaven. I love you and always take care of yourself.

Next is for my friends, I want you to know all of you that I'm very happy that I have friends and companions like you. We are companions in happiness and sadness.
We experience many problems and we engage in a situation that we don't expect. To my friend Reginald I want you to know that I'm lucky that I have a friend like you, you always treat me when I have no money even though I'm refusing you still treating me some foods.
For my tropa, I just want to say that thank you for everything, for all the moments that were happy and for the moments that we talk about girls and weird stuff, boys are boys and it's normal to talk about girls. If I die I don't want to see anybody crying, in my burial I want everyone to smile and bring a guitar then play my favorite song which is "your song" by parokya ni Edgar.
I want everyone to hide their tears and remove all the negative vibes around, I'll become happy if you do that.

Lastly, for the person, I have loved since 2018, I know that you have no feelings for me anymore. I want to say sorry for everything, sorry for my mistakes when we are together. Sorry for being a not worthy boyfriend to you.
You've found a man that loves you and I'm happy for you but you're now in pain I want to comfort you but I can't I don't want to disturb you since I know that you'll think I making a way to talk to you. Your life is not okay now but I know you'll be happy in the future.
The pain you experience right now will replace by happiness. Always remember that even though I'm not existing on earth anymore I want you to remember that you'll the only girl that I loved most. Thank you for the love you gave to me in the past and I will never forget it until my day will come.
In my afterlife I wish I could see you again, I want to correct all my mistakes that I've done and I want to see your face again. I hope God will grant my only wish, it's the best thing that will happen to me if that wish will come true.
Bio-Plastic: Replacement for Traditional Plastics
Plastic is one of the most important materials that are necessary to produce a quality product which is compatible for a long run usage. Around 10 million tons plastics are being wasted every year which results to a big problem concerning our environment Pollution is one of the causes why people get these different diseases. Plastics have a contribution to the Pollution, since the traditional plastics which are petroleum based are non-biodegradable. It is also one of the causes why floods happen because of the clogged drainage systems which are caused by plastics. Although plastics have a great contribution and help to mankind, it also can harm and affect the environment and the health of the people living in it.
Although most plastics are recyclable these days, their disposal becomes a problem due to the lack of landfill area. Plastics which we are using today are not Eco-friendly and not safe. The government has been implementing laws which states to minimize the use of plastics so that we could restore the cleanliness of our environment as well as to stop the tearing of our ozone layer and to have a fresh atmosphere. A single-use packaging always ends up in a landfill, a situation which prompted the government to formulate 13 House Bills and Senate Bills on the regulation and phasing out of plastic bags and other plastic packaging materials.
Synthetic plastics are petrochemical-based, which means that they are not easily break down and would take almost a decade to decompose. This prompted lawmakers and plastic makers worldwide to identify and develop durable Biodegradable bio-based alternatives. The downside, though, is that not all plastics can be replaced with biodegradable polymer, like those single use plastics in which recycling is not an option. Then there is the cost of biodegradable polymer which is slightly higher than the synthetic plastic.The small size of industry players in the area of biodegradable polymer signals an opportunity for those who want to venture into the manufacturing of plastics. Plastic manufacturers can easily shift to this type of technology because there are no required investment for pre-processing equipment and skilled workers. They can still use their existing equipment of extrusion and face pelletizer machine.
Science has made its way to somehow minimize the causes of pollution and to have a Greener and Cleaner environment, introducing the Bio-Plastics which compose of the main ingredient used in the project: Corn Starch and Potato Starch. Some bio-plastics are made of other ingredients like vegetable fats, corn, peas and Jicama (Singkamas) which also contains starches. Some bio-plastics are designed to be biodegradable. By using this innovation, we can make a cleaner and greener environment. The advantages of these are: the plastics are renewable, less energy to produce, easier to recycle, non toxic and it is biodegradable. Making these bio-plastics can really help minimize the pollution on our environment. Imagine the world replacing all petroleum based plastics to bio-plastics.
Production of bioplastics have an definitely impact to the environment because it doesn’t emit or emit less greenhouse gases than the traditional plastic. But using bio plastics has pitfalls. For example, bio plastics cannot be mixed with traditional plastics when recycling; it has substances that can interfere with the process of recycling traditional plastics. Also, it cannot be simply thrown in the compost pit with other organic garbage; bio plastics cannot biodegrade under normal circumstances. Common plastics are composed of harmful chemicals and by-products which are released to the air when it breaks down. Bio plastics are better for the environment for there is no harm done to earth. Bio plastics do not have chemicals or toxins in its composition, which make it safe. The use of this kind of plastic will reduce the country’s dependence to fossil fuel.

Parallel Universe: Different Realities
Do you believe there is something else in our outer space? perhaps some of us believe that our outer space is made up of various other things that people have not yet discovered due to the lack of advanced technology only limited Scientific information available about our objects outer space. we can no longer deny that outing outer space is so vast that people's knowledge has not yet reached the middle of our knowledge about outer space many theories are emerging about our outer space, the various another theory about things we have never seen before such as Alien UFOs and other things in space but a theory cannot be called true without proof so our scientists are still researching many things to prove theory that they have. There are also theories that say the Universe is Round and others say that our Universe is flat but what is more widely believed today is the theory that the Universe is round because of the fact that objects in outer space are affected by gravity, just like our planet with the theory that says our planet is flat but the fact that our planet is really a round because it does have gravity.
Have you ever heard of parallel Universe theory? maybe for others it is new to their hearing but I will discuss with you what this theory really means. It all started from a very small thing that suddenly exploded in our outer space, this is called The Big Bang Theory. According to this theory from that explosion it was the beginning of the creation of other objects in our galaxy such as planet stars galaxies and milky ways. because of that explosion there many things formed in our galaxy and scientists believe that there are other things that exist in outer space. What exactly is the parallel Universe? the parallel Universe are worlds where they are our other beings in another world, meaning the world in another dimension. Here in my world I want to do something For example I want to go to the mall but in another reality I want to do basketball and in another reality I would prefer to just stay at home, that is the example of the parallel Universe where we have a different person in another world and he plays different roles. Many do not believe in this theory because it is very impossible for us to have another person or another world in another dimension . Do you think that you have the possibility that this theory is true because our outer space is very wide. There is also evidence given by scientists studying about the parallel Universe, but this has not been proven yet because they do not yet have enough knowledge and technology to reach and prove that the parallel Universe really does exist. These are some of the evidence gathered by scientists who say that the parallel Universe exists. First, there is a problem currently traveling in space and exploring the boundaries of the Universe, and because of the Cosmic microwave background radiation scattered in outer space from the explosion that occurred from the Big Bang Theory, this is what scientists trace to find out what exactly is the shape of the Universe.
There is also evidence to prove that the parallel Universe because there are events that have already happened here on our planet that relate to the parallel Universe. Just like a man who went to the airport and showed his passport to the guard but what surprised the guard most was the place where the man was already in the passport. They stopped the man first to find out what the place was in his passport but the man suddenly disappeared and was never seen again. There is also an incident in China that may be linked to the parallel Universe, an image of the city popped up over the city of China, with photos and videos proving that he did that thing but for scientifically it is just a natural phenomenon that occurs when hot and cold temperatures combine, When that happens it creates After Images that we see everywhere as if it were just a reflection of the city Below. a scientist also explained that it is called Fata Morgana which is a kind of atmospheric image. but such evidences are not yet sufficient to prove parallel Universe theory. in television shows we will notice that on the feet The show discusses parallel Universe theory one of the shows I watched was The Flash where the main character there flash is free to travel in the parallel Universe, there he meets the different personalities of the characters who are also present in the show. Flash is able to travel in the parallel Universe because of its speed that can stop time and through its ability he can create a portal where he can go inside and he can go to another world.
There is not enough evidence to prove that the parallel Universe is real in the future I believe that because of technology we will know the truth, and if the parallel Universe is true I want to travel to another world so that I can know myself, if what is my status in another world If I am famous, rich or famous. If this theory is true I can say it is very good because people will be free to recognize themselves in another dimension, But I know that if this thing is true the government will not allow people to know about it because it can result in widespread panic of humanity.
When Death Fell Inlove to Life: 1.4
This is the continuation of my story, putol putol kase siya, yung iba kung part ng story na ito dun sa isang account pero once na macomplete ko saka ko na ipagsama sama, ngayon hiwa hiwalay muna para kumita ng money para sa kinabukasan.
after 3 weeks, naging close kaming mga nasa likuran, ngayon ay araw ng sabado at kailangan naming tapusin yung project namin. Kahapon sabi ni Hanz wala daw malalate at ngayon kami palang ni Hannah dito, inaantay pa namin yung iba naming kasama, sa wakas may dumating na din pero bat ganun biglang bumilis tibok ng puso ko, bat parang bumabagal ang oras, nang papalit na siya, nagkunwari akong walang pakialam at tumingin sa ibang direksyon, *"damnn why she's so beautiful in that dress".*
"Pasensiya na guys medyo late ako, natraffic kase ako"
"Hindi pa naman late ah, tsaka wow ang ganda mo naman sa dress na yan, tlagang pinaghandaan mo itong ishoshoot natin ah" sabi ni Hannah
"Medyo hindi nga ako comfortable eh, paano ba naman para akong tanga sa damit na to (*laugh*)."
Ang saya naman ng paguusap ng dalwang to, para tuloy akong multo dito na hindi nakikita, akma ko na sanang kukunin yung earphone ko ng bigla akong kinausap ni Hannah.
"David? ano masasabi mo kay Lhaine?, hindi ka ba nagagandahan sa kanya (*smiling*) ang ganda niya kayaaaaaaaa."
"Uhmmm ok lang"
Biglang kumunot ang noo ni Hannah, hindi ko naman pwedeng sabihin na mas gumanda pa siya lalo sa suit niya kase siguradong maghihinala itong si Hannah, kita ko naman sa mukha ni Lhaine na medyo disappointed siya at mabilis niyang iniwas yung ulo niya.
"Seryoso ka David? Yun lang masasabi mo kay Lhaine? Lalaki ka ba talaga?" tanong sakin ni Hannah
Buti na lang at dumating na yung dalwa pa naming kasama kaya naiba yung usapan, napabuntong-hininga na lang ako, after 10 minutes dumating na si Hanz, mukhang di magiging maganda ang susunod na mangyayari dahil bakas na sa mukha ni Hannah yung inis.
"Aba! wala daw malalate pero tingnan mo nga naman, kung sino pa ang may sabi na walang malalate ay siya pa pala ang late!"parinig ni Hannah
"Sorry guys may emergency lang kaya ako nalate, Tara magsimula na tayo" Yaya ni Hanz
Bakas sa mukha niya yung lungkot ngayon, hindi naman siya ganyan dati, dahil kapag inaaway siya ni Hannah ay siguradong sasabat din siya at dun na magkakaroon ng away, pero iba ngayon parang may problema siya ngayon. Napansin rin siguro ni Hannah yung napansin ko kaya hindi na niya inaway si Hanz. Nagstart na kaming magshoot ng video, at hindi ko mapigilan na mapatingin sa kanya at ganun din siya sakin, nahuhuli ko siya minsan na tumitingin sakin, boom ashumero na naman ako. Paano ba naman hindi ako kasama sa shooting, ako taga hawak ng mga props, Wow sa pogi kong ito, ginawa nila ako taga hawak lang ng props. Hindi naman ako pwede magreklamo kase para naman sa grades to. Halos mag aalas 4 na ng matapos kami, dahil narin siguro sa gutom kaya kami nagfood trip at aba langya, scammer ang mga kagrupo ko dahil ako pinagbayad, gusto ko sila pagtitirisin pero dapat maganda image ko kay Lhaine kaya kahit na nagngingitngit na ako sa galit para pagtitirisin tong mga scammer kong kagrupo ay nagbayad ako ng labag sa loob ko. Magkakasama yung tatlong babae na umuwi dahil iba yung direksiyon ng bahay nila, ako kase kelangan ko pa magcommute para makauwi samin, gusto ko sana magpasundo kay Mang Raul pero baka kase driver din siya ngayon ni Mommy kaya nagcommute ako kase sanay naman ako.
When Death Fell inlove to Life: A journey
Yung title ko pang sosyal pero yung content medyo walang sense (*laugh*).This is my novel that I wrote during quarantine period that had a title of When Death fell inlove to life, ito yung mga panahong wala akong cellphone, seryoso wala akong cellphone ng halos 3 buwan kase nasira ko. Sa sobrang gigil ko sa paglalaro napindot ko yung may Crack na part kaya ayun nagblack out yung screen ko, grabe yung kaba ko kase di ko maopen yung phone kaya nilagay ko siya sa bigas, hindi ko alam kung ano yung nagagawa ng bigas para gumana ulit yung cp pero effective daw yun kaya ginawa ko, nagmukmok muna ako sa kuwarto at umiiyak dahil sa "katangahan" ko, after 3 hours chineck ko kung gumagana pa, dasal nga ako ng dasal eh pero wala na sumuko na talaga ang cp ko, at ayun na ang simula ng napakaboring kong quarantine kase wala akong phone. Halos isang buwan din akong nagdadasal na mawala na yung quarantine para mapaayos ko na yung cellphone pero wala eh tumataas padin talaga ang cases ng CoVid kaya para mawala ang bored ko, nagisip ako ng story na pwede ko isulat, nung umpisa gusto ko sana yung mga kwentuhan na badboy yung lalaki tas poor girl yung babae kaso naisip ko corny ko naman pag ganun, tsaka madami na kaseng novel na ganun ang theme kaya nagisip ako ng kakaiba.
Naisip ko na what if ipasok ko sa story yung mga hilig ko, dahil nga superfan ako ng supernatural na series, naisip ko na ang magiging basis ng story ko is about Light, dark, supernatural creatures and especially ang two main characters ko is sina Death and Life, nung naisip ko na to dami na agad pumapasok sa isip ko na magiging daloy ng story pero ang mahirap ay kung paano ko gagawin at saan ko isusulat, at dahil nga wala akong phone, sa notebook ko sinulat yung story, bale may una na akong gawa pero nung binasa ko yung buo narealize ko marami pa akong babaguhin kaya nirevise ko yung story, may konti akong binago kase feeling ko masyadong mayabang yung pagpapakilala ko sa main character at mostly naghahalo ung mga point of views, merong first at meron ding third kaya naguguluhan tlaaga ako kaya ang ginawa ko nirevise ko yung story at merpn akong mga binago, sa totoo lang mahirap magsulat kase nga sulat kamay siya, marami nga akong walang tinta ng ballpen sa bag eh. Habang sinusulat ko yung story feeling ko masyadong mababaw yung basis at baka against ito sa anumang belief ng tao di kaya madamay ko yung name ni God, kaya hindi ko na lang spinecify ang ginawa ko mas ginereral ko yung character para walang may matamaan na anumang belief. Sa totoo lang nacocornihan ako sa story na gawa ko kase, first person point of view siya tapos ang main character is lalake, Ewan ko lang kung normal yun kase karamihan kase sa mga story na nababasa ko yung babae ang main character at naka 1st POV.
Oo nga pala ang inspiration ko kung bakit ko sinulat ang story na ito, ang totoo niyan dedicated talaga to sa naging ex girlfriend ko, yung character na babae sa story na ito ay may mga characteristics, favorite at ugali na katulad ng sa kanya, kahit nga birthday dito ng character na babae ay same din sa kanya, I don't know why dahik siguro mahal ko pa (laugh), thats why I'm inspired to write this novel or story, Ewan kung anong klaseng literature to pero sinulat ko na eh, hindi ko nga alam kung ano yung prolog at epilog eh. Nakasulat ako hanggang chapter 11, sobrang haba kase ng isang chapter at sulat kamay pa, inabot ng halos 2 months para masulat ko yung 11 chapters na yun at nawawala naman bored ko, kahit nga ako kinikilig sa sarili kong story (*laugh*). Bale hanggsng dun lang yung story kase hindi ko alam kung sino ang mamamatay, hala spoiled pa more, romantic story siya na puro kasiyahan at kilig pero babalik padin tlaga kase ang story sa original basis nito kaya kailangang may mamatay, naiisip ko kase na wag na lang patayin, what if mawalan na lang ng alaala. In the end kase yung story na ito ang magpapatunay na may mga bagay na papakiligin ka lang sa una pero in the end mararamdaman mong sinasaktan ka na pala.
People who achieved Success in Life
What success means to you? is it wealth? fame?, for some people they know its a success if they finish the goal that they have or their business is growing. Success means achieving a certain goals in life and you achieve it because of diligence, perseverance, patience and determination that you can do what you do. It is good to hear the word success when it comes to hard work, it is the thing that you can be proud of others, that you have achieved because of your sacrifice and perseverance to reach the goal you have even though many trials have passed and tested you. You can say you have succeeded if all your hardships have been replaced by joy and hope. Nor can a person be successful without the help of others, rarely do people become successful alone, most of what I read and see that people who have been successful have an assistant in the development of their dream. It is true that you cannot be successful alone, if there is anyone who has been successful alone, I am sure that person has not experienced happiness while treading the path to success. Achieving success is not rushed, it takes patience, the right time and hardwork to achieve success, it is sad to think that there are people who give up easily just because of a little mistake in life. We can not blame such people because that is their characteristics. There are people with just a few mistakes and judgments from society that cause them to not continue with their dreams. Maybe their determination and belief that they will be successful, they may lack support from others and few believe in their ability.
On the other hand, there are also people who, no matter how much society judges and belittles them, they do not give up, they believe more in themselves and they want to show that one day they will be successful in what they do. I salute such people because no matter what trials come their way and even if they grow up in poverty, they have a mindset that one day they will be able to rise out of poverty and achieve happiness. Something can be called a real success when it comes to hard work but there are people who find it easy for them to achieve happiness because they were born luxurious, they do not have to go through hardships just to succeed because their name is will lead them to success, it hurts to think that the world in which some live in luxury while the others have to work hard to earn money to feed the family is unfair and unbalanced. I still believe more in people who have been successful because of diligence and perseverance than in people who have been successful just because they are rich, there is a parable that stuck in my mind while I was in junior high school, there is a successful person who said people who come out of hardship and become successful are not afraid to return to poverty because that is where they came from and they can rise again, but people who have been successful in something they did not work hard for and when the time of their fall comes, they can not cope to live in a world of poverty.
Here are some people who became successful due to hardwork, First on the List is Mariano Que today he owned 700 branches of Mercury Drug, but few know what he went through, during World War 2, Mariano used his knowledge of Pharmaceutical to made an Antibiotics, he sells it to people with poor social status and rides his Antibiotics inside the "cart" because of his perseverance and diligence now he is well known throughout the Philippines because he is the owner of Mercury Drug Store.
Our own Miss Universe 2o17, Pia Wurtzbach, despite of her success during miss Universe 2017 in which she became the Winner, I've watched here story on MMK it tells there that she experienced so many failures in life, once her father left them and her mommy is the only person who take care of her and also her mommy support her in every pagents she joined, but unfortunately she experienced so many looses in Binibining Pilipinas, she attempt many times to join in this prestigious pagents but she always failed, she almost loosing hope but her mommy always support her and boost her confidence, until she became what she right now, a beautiful women whose ready to show to the world the universe rather that she confidently beautiful with a heart.
Then the next one is our own type of McDonald, the Jollibee, the owner of this fast food restaurant is Tony Tan Caktiong, at his young age he help already at their restaurant being a helper, server of foods and he also help washing dishes because of his perseverance, finished the college with a degree of BS chemical Engineering, and he build his own business with the use of savings of their family. He named it as Magnolia Ice cream House but later on they decided to make it as burger restaurant that later on became Jollibee, today Jollibee is not the only leading restaurant in the Philippines but also around the world.
Things I’ve Lost
Have you experience that you lost something? A person, material thing or even money? What do you feel when you there’s something loose in you? Maybe for some people losing material things is not a big deal for them since they have the ability to buy another one, but some for some people it is hard to lose things that important for them like cellphone, money and accessories since its their only thing and they work hard to get it. For example, a person which lost cellphone it is very hard to lose a phone since important transactions and very important contacts was there, it is depressing once we lost a thing right. In this 21st century in which technology is important and money is need to live, many people keeps their phones and money to safe place like inside the bag so that they can avoid to lose it and avoid from thieves. Its sad to say that for some people loosing material things is more important than loosing important persons in life. I saw many things in life that people value material things more than friends and they don’t care if they lose people surrounds them. To me honestly, I don’t have many friends and I’m not much attach to people surrounds me that’s why I don’t enough things to loose, but in my 19 years of living, I’ve loose enough things, people and love once and I don’t want to lose things anymore because it makes me cry a lot and it gives me too much pain.
When I was a kid I’ve lost some coins when I’m wondering in our province and one time I’ve lost my 10 peso coin that’s why I cried a lot that’s why my Lola give new a new 10 peso coin, even though it’s a little amount of money its still valuable to me since I can buy a lot with 10 peso coin. I’ve lost many things in province but I’m not giving it enough attention because I’m just a kid and the only thing I want to do is play and wonder around our province. But when we relocate here on Manila, I have many material things lost, like cellphone, money and even my school materials, well its normal to lose school materials since I’m not taking care of it and sometimes my things is disappear on my table but I know its normal that’s why I buy a new one and use it. I’ve also remember that I’ve lost my cellphone when I was in Grade 8, I’m on that ride in tricycle and I didn’t notice that my phone was drop on my seat, I noticed that my phone is gone when I’m already out of the tricycle and its far away from me, I’m very nervous that time since I’m sure that my sister will kill me, that’s why I borrow the cellphone of my classmate and call the number of my phone at once the driver answer it but he said he was driving and he shut down the phone, unfortunately I didn’t get that phone again. Another incident of my stupidity that I lose my phone was I’m on my 10th grade, were came from practice and I’m riding a bike with my friend, I didn’t notice that it was fell on my pants, just I knew that it was missing when were at near of my house, I’m panicked that time and I don’t know where to find that phone, until I remember that I heard a loud sound falling on the road that’s why we came back to the place and ask people there is they saw a phone fell in the road but they said No and I know they get it and hide so that I can’t find it.
When I was on Senior high school I have a girlfriend which I met online, she was cute and beautiful, at first she was very sweet to me and everyday we have a call and damn her voice is so cute, Honestly I’m not serious at her that time since we’re LDR and she’s just a 13 year old while I’m 17 I don’t know to handle that type of relationship, I don’t know where I got wrong maybe I exert not enough effort that’s why she lost interest, she didn’t reply to my chats for almost a month and then we break up, I want to comeback to her but she don’t want and I realize how much I love her but its already late, its my regret that I lost a girl that I love more than myself, its almost 3 years when we break up but until now I have feelings for her, I secretly watching her my day and her post on Facebook, I want to comfort her since I know she’s in pain since she experience a break up from her ex boyfriend and I saw on her post how much she love her ex. There’s a thing in my heart saying that I should chat here and ask her if she ok but my mind says don’t do that you’ll just hurting yourself, you must move on. But I don’t want to see her lonely like that, I feel what she feel and I know how much pain she had.
The most difficult thing I experience is I’ve lost my beloved sister, she was my companions in everything and she supports me in everything I do but she was gone, she had a brain tumor. I’ve cried a lot when my brother tells me that my sister is dead, I don’t want to believe it but when I saw here resting inside the coffin my tears can’t stop to fall. I hope I can go back time and hug my sister very tight hoping that I could warn her and give her healthy foods so that she can’t get that sickness. But I know its impossible I can’t take back time and I can’t change everything, there’s a sorrow in my heart even though its almost 2 years when my sister died but I know she was happy now in heaven, she was now happy together with my mother and I know they are guiding me now, they will no longer feel pain and eternal happiness is with them sometimes I wish that I could join them but I know I have lot things to do here on earth and I know that they want me to be strong and achieve the goal that I want. They are guiding me to avoid dangers and have a healthy living.
Random Facts about Philippines 2.0
I've written already the first part of this article and if you want to find it its posted here on my account, it also about random facts about Philippines and im happy that other users here loves my first article and they want to know more about Philippines thats why I'm making another article about facts in my country Philippines. But first I'm going to give you some facts about Philippine history are you excited?
-Lets start with the Spanish time in which Spaniards is already loosing from Americans, when the time that American ships bombard the Spanish Fleet called "Armada", thats the start of Spanish-American war and that time Spaniards is loosing thats why the last Governor-General of Philippines decides to hide their loose thats why they plan to negotiate with Americans that they surrendered but the truth is America buy the Philippines from Spain, the negotiation was conducted in Paris, it is also known as "Treaty of Paris", after that Spain surrendered and America colonized us, then Philippines is under colonization again.
-Another facts about Philippine history is the first president of the Philippines, there's a debate about who's the first president some says it was Andres Bonifacio, there's an evidence stating that Bonifacio was the first president since he is Supremo and Founder of Katipunan, there's a discussion that in Tejeros Convention, Andres Bonifacio was fooled since he thought that it was a discussion about the revolution but he didn't know that it was an election and members of the Revolution will vote for the position as president and vice-president, Bonifacio has no chance of winning since he had no companions and supporters there are all of present there are members of Magdalo, thats why Bonifacio lose in election. Eventhough he loose in election he was appointed in a lower position but someone question his credibility to handle that position and it makes Bonifacio angry and he proclaims that the election is void.
-Dr. Jose Rizal is our National hero, he also fights against the Spanish government but not using of "gulok", instead he uses pen and paper to reveal all the cruelty of Spaniards, when he was in Spain he wrote two famous novel, "Noli me Tangere and El Filibusterismo", in this story it shows there the oppression perpetrated by the spaniards on the Filipinos. After that Novels release many Filipinos read it and also Spaniards, thats why they caught Rizal and excile in Dapitan in which he will be executed in Bagumbayan now Luneta Park, when you wonder at the Luneta Park you can see there his statue, but you know that Rizal request that he will be executed while facing those men who will shoot him and those men who will shoot him is not spaniards but his fellow Filipino men. Another fact about Jose Rizal is all over the world, there's a statue that you can see, especially in Spain in which he was studied.
-Once again its enough for the history and let's go to positive facts about my country Philippiness!!, Did you know that Philippines has the largest archipelago in the world, yes because we have 3 big islands which is Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
-Another random facts about Philippines is there are more than 170 languages uses in this country, in my province, Iloilo we are using a dialect which is "Karay-a" in which in other part of iloilo they are using Bisaya and Ilonggo. But the main language Philippines using is Tagalog, since many people can understand tagalog.
-Facts about the capital of Philippines which is Manila, its name was came from a white flower that grew on mangrove trees, known as "Nilad". Thats why Manila came from "Maynilad" means "there are nilad there". And also Manila is the center of civilization on which million of people are living there, and Manila is already overpopulated.
-Im also proud to say that LGBTQ community is accepted in our country, in which there's no discrimination if you belong in that community. Here in Philipines its normal to see Lesbian, Gays, Transgender people walking on the street and there's no law or rules that against their rights, even though you dress like a model and do a fashion show in highway, its OK people will just laugh and sometimes you can become famous. There are also members of LGBTQ community that has position on government. It shows that Philippines has no discrimination on LGBT, if your a gay, lesbian or transgender that wants to visit our country, I can assure you that you can freely wonder in this country without experiencing a discrimination, instead Filipinos will show you kindness and show you our Filipino Hospitality. Though same sex marriage is not yet approve in this country since we're stick on belief according to our religion which is catholic but I know in the future, it will be implement.
-Lastly the fun fact about Philippines is when it comes to jokes and non sense things PHILIPPINES IS THE NUMBER ONE HAHAH, maybe world didn't know that Philippines is number one when it comes to memes, there are Filipinos whose very talented in editing funny memes and it makes other Filipinos Laugh hard, despite of the problems there is still smile written on face of Filipinos because its our spirit, we experienced already many disasters such as typhoon, earthquake and even pandemic crisis right now, but it can't stop us to feel happiness. Thats what we are, WELCOME TO PHILIPPINES!!!
Different Forms of Love
Have you been inloved? What's the feeling of being loved or inloved to someone?, I've read so many stories and essay stating that your inlove if there are butterflies in your stomach, also you will feel that your inlove if you always thinking that person and you imagine things together with the person you love.Im talking here about a romantic love, in which it involves two opposite gender who loved each other but today the meaning of romantic relationship didn't limit on two opposite sex but also on the same sex, in Philippines there is LGBTQ community that consist people who loved persons that the same gender that they have, and there's a judgements but they are already accepted by society. There are different forms of love not only focusing on romantic relationship, our heart is pure in which no matter how bad we are there's a love that still left in our heart and at the end of the day, we use that love to save someone and help someone.
Love for God
No matter how we diverse by our religions, we still believe in our own God that created everything, this is a forbidden love that no one can get, everyone of us has their own belief about our Gods but I'm sure that we pray in our God to ask a healthy body and safety of our family. I'm a Catholic and I believe in my own God, there's a holy Bible that guide us to know him more and it indicates there how he do everythings thats why we Catholic attend the mass every Sunday so that we can praise him and we can give thanks for all the things he do, for making us live with no sickness and asking forgiveness for all the sins we do, I admit that im not regularly attending the mass every Sunday but I never forget to pray to him before I go to bed and every time I wake up in the morning I thank him for the new day he gave me to devote my time to something meaningful. As a Catholic I have to follow the ten commandments he made to be a good son of God and avoid to commit sins, but people are not perfect sometimes people are committing sins but God is forgiving, he forgives people no matter how bad what he did. In other religions i don't know what they believe but I'm sure they also love their God and they do everything to follow the order of their God.
Love for Friends
In this world we have friends that we can talk in times of our downs, and they are advising things so that they can make us smile again, love for friends is also important, its not a romantic relationship but this is the feeling when you want a strange people that has the same vibes as you, if you found that stranger then it can become your friend. Friendship forms when there's a kindness and love involve, if others see that you do good things they will become good to you and as the times go by you'll realize that Friendship was already formed. It is easy to find people who will good to you but its difficult to find a true friendship since it needs a lot of effort, thats why if you have true friends, do everything to make them stay just be good to them and help them in times of problems in that case it can make the bond stronger and the friendship will last long. As a human, the life is too short thats why spend the life to find friends so that your life will be enjoyable and full of happiness.
Love for Family
It is the second important form of love but the first is love for God, in this form of love the family involves in here in which when we born in this world we already had a family that will take care of us until we grow, this is the love that a material thing can't replace. Those parents show their love to children's and support their needs, in times of problems parents are sacrificing themselves for the sake of their children thats the true love, no matter how the situation is they didn't give up because their strength is their children. We can't avoid having a problems in the family and there's a misunderstanding between a son to his parents and it leads to a fight and the son chooses to leave, but in the end no matter what we feels about our parents, they are still our parents that take care us and we will realize how they sacrifice themselves for our sake. In that time we can feel a deep regret and our tears will start to fall while we're holding in our parents asking for forgiveness for all what we did. Decades will past and our parents will grow old thats the time that its our responsibility to take care of them and give them all their needs, no matter howbusy we are on work giving them time can make them smile despite of loneliness because their children's already have a family or busy on work.
Love for Self
For me before you love someone you must love yourself first because I believe that if you love yourself, you can also love someone. You must believe in yourself that you can do anything and surpass all the struggles in life and no matter what problems you'll face, tell to yourself that its just a piece of paper. There are instances that there are people who give all they have on romantic relationship and they didn't give enough for their selves thats why in time of break up, they feel to much pain because they give everythings but still its not enough. I feel pity for them but I find them as a fool also because they dont love their selves first thats why they are in pain, but there are also people whose strong enough to handle problems and romantic problems since the love they have is divided into two, love for their partners and love for their selves.

Last time I've visited my Province
The last time I've visited my province is when my sister died, my older sister decided that she will be be bury on our province since she was born there. Before we travel to Iloilo, the body of my sister stayed inside the chapel so that our friends and relatives here on Manila can see her before body deliver to Iloilo. I don't know what to feel that time, my mind is flying and I'm looking at the sky. I can't accept that she died, my tears can't stop falling. I didn't notice the time, I don't know that its already two days since my sister died, we prepare everythings and pack our things, I didn't feel any excitement at that time, only pain and sorrow I feel that time, an uber car is our transportation to Manila Port in which we will travel by Ship, our driver is once famous since he was in Rated K, the man with a sickness in which he can't control his muscles, but we don't have time to be happy and take pictures with him.
Almost 2 hours we reach the port and the ship will travel at 7pm and its 4pm in the afternoon, my Auntie decides to go back home since their house is in Parola, I choose to accompany her since I want to see my other relatives, I can't feel anything just like I'm a zombie walking without knowledge about what's surrounds me. After my auntie pack the things she need we decide to go back to the Port, after we arrive there, we fall in line so that security can check us, we enter inside the Port and show our tickets, there's a little misunderstanding but later on its already resolve, we wait on waiting area and I meet there a man whose playing mobile legends, im the one who talk to him and we have conversations, later on there is a announcement saying that we need to prepare and board in the ship, the weather that time is rainy, seems the weather sympathize on what I feel.
We ride on a bus and it brings us at the entrance ladder of the ship, hopefully there are crews that helps us to lift our things, after 6 years ill enter a ship again, there's a bed number in my ticket and I find my bed number, after I found out I put my bag there and assist my auntie, sister and Brother. After we finished they want to sleep because its a tiring day but I don't want to rest, I went at the corridor of the ship and watch things under the ship. Almost 2 hours im there thinking about my sister, again tears can't stop falling from my eyes, hopefully it's night and people can't see me crying. At 11 pm, the ship engines already start and it will travel, I can smell the stink of Manila bay but it doesn't bother me, while the ship is getting farther and farther from the port I can see eternal darkness of the sea and lights is already fading, I stay at the corridor and holding a rope so that im safe, I just stare below the water and I can see darkness only, my brother wants me to rest but I refuse, I stay there until 1 AM, until I already feel sleepy thats why I go inside, all the people there was already sleep but some are still awake.
After my few hours of sleep, I've wake up at 4 PM then get my towel, clothes and my soap and went to C.R of the ship, when I'm on the way to C.R I notice the back part of the ship and it was windy there, I ask a woman if what's the location of the ship but they didn't know, after that I went to bathroom and clean my face since im so haggard, then after that I went back at the corridor of the ship and stay again at the side holding a rope, at the morning we take a breakfast, and after 2 days of ride we already reach the Port of Iloilo, everybody wakes up and prepare to aboard on the ship, I can't feel any excitement im so exhausted and I want to sleep, after we go out from the ship, there's a jeep waiting for us, we put our things inside the jeep and starts to ride, I can't recognize iloilo anymore, there are lots of changes and there's buildings already standing.
After a few hours of travel we already reach Kulyatan Marine Sanctuary, I can still recognize the place, after 6 years the big rock was still there and nothing changes, we get our things and lift it. We travel a few distance to house of my Lolo and Lola, its 4AM in the morning and its still dark and the way is full of mud but it doesn't bother me, finally we reached the house and tears starts to fall, my Lola kiss and Hugged me, I can feel sorrow in her heart. Finally we reach a place in which I can pour all the pain I hide for 3 days.
Trees have Lives too
In my grade school, my teacher taught me that the planet is beautiful and full of trees, beautiful sea and clean environment. Maybe teachers don't want to harm the innocent mind of children about the reality of the world. When I was a kid I didn't experience any problems about nature since im in province and trees there are so many and you can't see trashes on roads, just dry leaves and branches of trees. When I got old and I'm already at urban place, it opens my mind that things I've learn during my grade school is not real, its not the world that I know, it differs from my imagination. Now I know that nature is not healthy and trees is decreased in count every year due to human illegal activities.
Humans don't understand the purpose of trees in life, they didn't know that trees serves as a shield against the radiation of sun, on my experience when I was young, if we're playing underneath of sun we feel exhausted and we use big trees as our shield against the heat coming from the sun. Also, trees gives us something to eat like guava tree, mango tree and other trees who bear fruits, we climb those trees to get fruits to eat if we feel hungry and sometimes we climb a coconut tree to get its fruit. Another benefit of tree is it gives fresh air to humans, in my high school years I discover that trees is responsible for breathing cycle in which humans gains from trees. In this cycle humans breath out carbon dioxide that is absorbed by plants and trees and as an exchange it gives oxygen to humans. Trees also store memories, if your a province person im 100 percent sure that you use trees to store memories, I can still remember that we carve our names on a big tree and happy memories store there those times that we play under that tree. Trees also witness the love of two person because there are people whose meeting place is under the tree. There's a tree in our province that witness friendship born to me and my classmates since we use that tree as our place to place, and in the night, me and my friends talking about horror stories and scary history of our place. Scientifically speaking, trees also help us in times of disaster, everytime there's a heavy rain, trees helps to sip water so that it can reduce the potential of floods.
It sad to say that in this generation, trees has been cut down to make it furniture, papers, logs and even toilet papers, thousand acres of trees in forest is cut down every year to be processed as material that humans can use. I understand that its necessity of humans but the problem is it is too much, its no longer for needs of humanity but for personal interest. Many companies around the world are cutting down the trees to make it as raw material to be process but the problem is they are exceeding their limits, they are cutting to many trees that makes forest bald. There are also illegal loggers who cut down trees without permission and governments didn't do too much action to solve this because there are some people on government whose mastermind of this, they are the one who do illegal logging so that they can benefit it for their selves. Due to illegal activities such as Deforestation, our planet is already affected, Carbon gases is trap on our atmosphere is already too much because there's no trees that will absorb those carbon gases, the air we breath is already polluted since there's no trees that will give us fresh air. It's very sad that trees is decreased every year due to cruelty of humans, there's no trees that will act as a shield against sun radiation thats why there are skin diseases born and leads to more complicated diseases in our body. Its not the world i wish when I was a kid, I wish I could go back time and live to the time that our planet is not harm by humans.
But its not too late we can do action to reduce damage on planet, we can plant trees and seeds but it takes years to grow as big tree. As long as we do an action we can solve this problem. For me, the best way to solve climate change, global warming and disasters is to stop those illegal activities of humans that harm our planet. Maybe, in the future someone will invent a device that will make humans fell asleep for a thousand years, it is helpful since in thousand years our planet will go back to its healthy form , pollution and global warming is no longer exist and planet is greeny again. As a student like me, I know technology is rampant and everyone is using social media, we can use those platform to voice out my concern about the planet, there are lots of people who wants to change this world but they don't have the voice but as long as you have passion to change this world, many people will support you and higher organization will support you, maybe United Nations will agree to you and support you for your advocate.
When Death Fell Inlove to Life:Chapter 1.3
Habang sila busy sa pagpapakilala sa isat isa at yung iba kong kaklaseng classmate ay gustong makipagkilala dun sa cute na babae, ako naman busy sa cellphone at pakikinig ng music. Naalala ko na may pinabaon pala sakin si mama kaya kinuha ko sa bag at nagsimula ng lumamon. Habang kumakain ako kunwari nakikinig ako ng music pero ang totoo naka-off yung music ko at pinapakinggan yung mga sinasabi ng mga lalaki dun sa cute na babaeng katabi ko.
"Hi miss I'm Mark, its my pleasure to meet such a beautiful woman like you (sabay abot ng kamay)"
At ayun na abugh mabait din naman pala ang babaeng ito, kala ko susungitan niya yung mga lalaki pero ang friendly lang niya tapos nginingitian niya bawat nagpapakilala sa kanya, sana kaya ko din magpakilala chooss, at ayun naging spectator lang ako ng kaganapan hanggang sa magtanong yung isang lalake.
"Are you free this afternoon?, yayain sana kita lumabas para mag food trip and to know each other narin"
Pero napatigil yung mga lalaki kase may biglang sumabat din na babae, maganda rin naman siya, may katangkaran, at kung tingnan sweet girl siya pero kabaliktaran pala, nagsimula na siyang magdada at parang siya yung nanay nung cute na babae.
"Hoy tigilan niyo nga siya, pag maganda talaga para kayong mauubusan ng babae sa mundo, layman niyo siya kase lahi kayo ng mga manloloko"
Grabe talaga yung babaeng ito, makajudge ng lalaki kala mo naman lahat ng lalaki Mantoloking dito sa mundo, ibahin niya ako isa ata akong mabait na species ng tao, in my whole life never ako nagka-interest sa babae kaya nga NGSB ako, ayon nanonood lang ako ng parang eksena sa pelikula at di ko inaasahan na merong magtatanggol ng lahi ng kalalakihan at alam na kung sino yun, ang maingay kong katabi, mukhang hindi ito magiging maganda.
"Wag mo naman lahatin, grabe ka naman manghusga sa mga kalalakihan bakit meron din namang mga babae na manloloko ah, minsan nga yung iba nakakausap na eh"
"Abugh nagpaparinig ka ba?" sabat nung masungit na babae
Natigil yung psgtatalo ng dalawa ng may dumating na professor, hindi ko namalayan tapos na agad ang break time hays sayang di ko nasaksihan ang ending, after nun bumalik na sa mga upuan yung mga students kaso Rambam ko padin yung tension sa pagitan ng dalawa dahil sa mga tinginan nila parang alam ko na ata kung saan ito papunta. During the orientation ng professor namin pinag groupings nila kami by row kaya yung nasa line ko yung mga kasama ko, may pinagawa saming simple task as a group at kailangan naming gawin kaya nagdiscuss kami as a group. Medyo nahihiya pa ako makipag-interact lalo na kase katabi ko yung cute na babae pero deadma lang ako kase para naman ito sa grades. At yun na nga nsgkaroon ng discussion sa group.
"So guys dapat kilala muna natin ang isat isa, its better siguro kung ipakilala natin ang mga sarili natin via nickname na lang siguro, BTW I'm Samantha"
"I'm Zhawn"
"I'm Hannah"
"Hello I'm Lhaine"
At ako na nga magpapakilala at grabe yung titig nila saken parang gusto nila akong kulamin hahah joke lang.
"I'm Davidson but you can call me David"
"Ayun guys I'm Hanz, Hanz with the Z"
Napansin ko na lang na napangiwi na lang yung kaaway niyang babae kanina na Hannah pala yung pangalan.
At dun na nga nagstart ang lahat sa simpleng activity nayun hindi ko akalain na magiging magtotropa ang nasa row na yun, after a month naging close na yung isat isa, maliban dun kay Hanz at Hannah na may quarrel padin, may inassign ulit na task samin na gagawa kami ng vlog and as usual kami kaming nasa likuran ang magkakasama.

Take me back on 2012
If there's a chance that I can travel to time is, I want to go back to 2012, I want to go back to time that I'm just a young boy searching for happiness. I want to go back to the time that I don't endure pain and I have no problems facing, im just a simple boy who's free to do everything and happiness always filled in my lips. This is the year that im on my fifth grade, this is the last year that I spend on my province and I receive too many memories, I can still remember that together with my friends and classmates we play patintero, memories that no one can change. I remember that every 4 pm in the afternoon we brings empty gallons and we travel a few meters to get water from deepwell, its so scary while where traveling to the deepwell since we encounter a big scary house, I think it was made during Spanish period but until now its still standing, everytime we walk behind that house we feel something watching us, especially it is near on abandon deep well, it makes us scared if we're walking behind it. We have also memories that me and my classmates have fun bonding, we play games in the field and the most unbelievable moment that I've done inside our classroom is I poop on the C.R and there's no water thats why they fetch water for me, awwww that's sweet hahah. After the class I also hangout with my friends and watching other students playing coins which is inside the box and need to hit, sometimes I join but I always loose since im not good at gambling. Then after the gambling I walk half kilometer to go back home, then I will do my task on home and at the night were going to eat together will myLolo and Lola then watch television and the best memory Iwill bring in my life is those memory together with my classmates especially, the place were we fetch water is clear on my mind until today. This is also the year in which im always beside my crush, the fact is I've already crush on her since grade 2, she's beautiful and smart thats why I fall inlove with her but I don't want to call it true love since when we relocate here on Manila, the love that I have for her starts to fade and someone replace in my heart. The main reason why I want to back to this time is to correct all my mistakes, I want to correct all my errors and bad activities during this time, but its impossible its already happen and it makes me who am I today.
Those happy memories starts to fade when we relocate here on Manila, icant enjoy this place, there's no happiness here, yes maybe you can say that life here is easy since everything here is already process but province is still different since everything there was raw, vegetables and fruits need to plant to grow and be harvest, its still enjoying in province even though the life there was simple and sometimes difficult, you can't feel tired to live since the beautiful scenery of sea and mountain makes your mind calm, also if you feel hunger there's a fruit to be eat anywhere.
I don't like to be in this year 2021, it is full of struggles and problems. Those tragedy happens to our family until pandemic crisis, this world is already in mess, I know there are lots of people who has the same dream that I have we want to go back to time that everything is fine and our life is simple, we want to go back to the time in which we feel joy and problems cannot reflect in our faces but we all know that it is impossible for now, but I believe that in the future someone can invent a machine that can bring us to the past. Its not bad to dream a thing that is impossible since I know that many people made a mistake from the past and they want to change it but in my case I want to go back to 2012, in which my life is full of happiness.
Different Types of Self
In my Understanding the Self subject, I learned that we have different types of Self and we encounter it on our everyday life. On myself I didn't know that my body is divided into different aspects and in every actions I'm using one type of self.
One type of Self is what we called Physical Self, its simple cause it refers to our own body, this is how we see our face, nose, mouth and other parts of our body. For me, when I hear the word physical self, it talks about how we handle our physical body. If I saw that my face is already haggard, I will wash my face to make it clean, also I make my physical body clean so that I can avoid bad comments from other people since people will look at you based on your appearance. It also involves the shape of my body, height, and proper way to maintain my body, unfortunately in reality I'm not that type of person who maintaining their physical self, since im so thin and maybe I can say I'm not good looking, but thanks to God I don't have sickness and my physical body is still healthy.
The next one is our Emotional Self, it involves our emotional behavior, the way we act on sorroundings and the way we handle our behaviors. There are different types of people in this world, there are people who have strong emotional self in which they can handle every situation they are facing.For example the person failed to pass the entrance exam to become a lawyer since he had a strong emotional behavior, he can handle the failure he experience and didn't loose hope to start again and study hard so that he can pass the exam next year. There are also people which had weak emotional self in which in a simple challenge they are already giving up, they choose to give up since they think its not worth it to fight anymore. Sometimes there are people who can't control their emotions and starts to cry if they experience failures and pain. Many people are experiencing stress and sometimes lead to depression they can't control their emotional self due to too much stress, but based on studies there are certain ways on how to cope up this types of mental illness. One of the solution to defeat stress and depression is try to interact with others, it can really helpful if the person experiencing stress will ask for advice from others, in that way the heavy feeling will lessen because you have someone to talk. In my experience the truth is I can't control my emotional self, I can say that I have weak emotional self and its easily for me to give up if I failed, im also afraid to ask for advice since I don't want to tell to others that I have problem, but the weird part of me is if I experience problems in life, I can easily think a thousand solutions and I didn't feel nervous if I'm in state of rush, but after I implement that solutions then my heart starts to beat fast and thats the time I start to feel nervous. I don't know why.
Next one is our Spiritual Self, it involves here our belief in existence of our own Gods, every people in this world had different religions and different spiritual beliefs, but in my Case im a Catholic and I believe in our God, we have holy Bible that help us to understand the work of God and how he created everything. In spiritual self, this is our self in which we pray every night before we sleep, going to church every Sunday to praise the one who created everything and thanking him for the life he gave us. In myself, eventhough im limit going to church every Sunday and attend the mass, I still praying in home and asking for forgiveness for all the sins I do and thanking him every morning for the new life he gave me to spend in valuable things.
Then our Digital Self, it is type of self in which it involves gadgets and technology, it is our desire to buy new release gadgets on the market sp that we can use it. There are lots of people who engage in their digital self since social media is a trend nowadays, social media is used to communicate to relatives abroad and far places. Also, social media unites all the people and it brings latest news around the globe. That's why many people are using social media as a way of communication, not only social media but people wants to buy latest brand of phones so that they can show it to their friends and maybe as a display to their hands. For me, digital self is not familiar to me since I don't care about new brands of phones, the important to me is I have phone to use and play, the truth is I just want a phone so that I can play Mobile legends. Also, social media is important to me since I used to communicate with my friends and relatives in the province, lastly im using my phone to watch funny videos and tiktok compilations hehehe.
There are different types of self we have and we encounter it everyday, every people have different self but as long as we handle it in a proper way it can help us to develop our self and become a good person.

My Creepy Childhood Experience
I was raised by my Lolo and Lola, since our parents is already deceased, unfortunately my father died when I just newborn baby, my sisters and brother tells me the truth that my father was a alcohol addict, he always getting money from my mother just to buy for his alcohols, when my father is already drunk he always asking for fight and when he go back home, he always hurting our mother and my sisters also. They say that my father was the most trash person in the world since he always hurting my mother just to make him satisfy, I don't know what to feel about him if I'm going to envy him since I didn't remember anything about him because im just a newborn child, but he died because of Tuberculosis and until now I didn't know where he buried and I don't want to know since he became a bad father to us, the only thing I remember after that is we relocate to another place and our house is near at the main road, our mother build a store but me and my sisters always stealing candies thats why our mother scare us that those candies contain poison thats why we don't steal candy anymore.
Unfortunately my mother got sick and my sister tells me a scary story that on the day that my mother died, there is a creepy words come from her mouth thats why my sister carries me and brought me to my Lolo and Lola, another memories in my mind is my mother brought to the house of my Lola and Lolo and they take care of her, but my mother passed away, I can't remember what happen to her but there's a memory in my mind that during her burial, im on a white shirt and crying and crying, until they bought me an ice cream on stick, I can remember its a green color, I also remember that many people carrying my mothers coffin, after that I can't remember anything at all, but I didn't know that creepy things will happen to me, after my mother died they tell to me that I can't accept that my mother was dead and I always saying that my mother is alive and I see her, also they telling me that everytime I went up the hill, they always calling for my name and finding me but they can't find me but in an instant they will find me lying under the bamboo tree and sleeping, when I hear those stories my hair in the body rises and I can't believe that it happens to me.
Our family has the blood of being an "Albularyo and albularya", my mother was a "albularya" and her job is to cure sickness that no one can explain and cannot cure by doctors, thats why our family is known in Iloilo for being a famous "Albularyo" but in exchange of this ability, an albularyo will receive all the pain that the patience had, the body will feel pain and suffer from severe cough. When our mother died, she left a word that one of the"bunso" will inherit the ability, there are two bunso in family, me and my older sister, but my sister is already 30 years old and she didn't inherit the ability, it means there's a possibility that I am, it says that when I reach the age of 21, the ability will start to reveal to me, but I don't want those ability since I want to become a normal person in which I have a normal job, I want to build a family with a normal life, but if this ability will enters to me, I'll just accept it and use to it to help others. Maybe I'm destined to that ability since im interested to those paranormal things and supernatural beings, when I was on grade 8 I'm interested to research about supernatural beings because of watching supernatural series. My childhood experience is different from other children and I experience to much scary things in my life but thankfully I didn't encounter any scary creatures in my entire life, I believe that someone protected me against danger and protecting me against supernatural creatures.
Evolution of Me
When i was a kid, I always love to play everywhere and I don't care about my sorroundings, I just want to do everything I want and I feel freedom since no one stops me to play and do the things I want. It is true that once a kid always a kid, in our childhood days, our parents give everything we need and sometimes giving us toys so to play, our childhood mind is too innocent to understand complicated things in this world. We don't know the value of money, just we know that we can buy foods if we use it. In my childhood experience, im so happy if I received a peso coin, everytime my lola gives me coins, I always spend it to buy candy thats why my teeth is not good today haha its because of eating candy during my childhood days, in my childhood days technology doesn't influence me since we're in province in which technology is not popular, we stick to old way of being happy and have fun.
I can still remember that during recess and lunch time, we spend our time playing at the field, those games such as tamaan tao, we have no plastic ball that time thats why we made an improvised ball made of leaves of coconut, we also play original Filipino games such as patintero and agawan base, but the most interesting part of childhood is confession on crushes, I can still remember the time that I made a love letter for my crush with rings hahaahahah, I don't know whats on my mind that time but I believe that it's normal for a child, I also making papansin for my crush so that she can notice me. Its really fun to reminisce all the memory of childhood but just like they say, as days past and the age is getting older, we realize things in this world.
On my teenage years, it starts when I was 14 years old that puberty comes in me and I need to change everything is do during my childhood days, playing in roads is no longer exist since im too old enough to do those things, thats why as a teenager I need to act as a matured person, since I'm always at the house watching t.v, technology starts to influence me, I start to play online games and play mobile games on cellphone, also the things I loved during childhood days starting to fades and replace with new one. In this years of my life, my high-school life is started, everything i experience in elementary is different in high-school,also it makes me realize that the world is not always happy, there are people who suffering and there are problems coming in life of people, it starts me to realize that I need to act as a teenage person, I need to follow all the rules and regulations that this society implement, it makes me realize that there is difference between rich and poor, it also opens my mindset that the government is always good, there's also corruption happening, lessons in different subjects also gives knowledge about this life and it opens my curiosity to know everything.
The way I act when I was child changes, I became a silent person and observant to my sorroundings, because of my curiosity, I discover that this world is full of different people, here are people who will treat you nicely and there are also people that will judge you and criticize you, at that time it hits in my mind that do not trust to much to people because trusting too much can make you regrets things, trust yourself since you truly know yourself well. Even today my principles and ideas doesn't change and I apply it on my everyday life. I believe that in the future, my beliefs and ideas will change as my environment will change too, in future maybe I can get a job and I will pay my own rent, foods and clothes, I will realize how valuable money is how important that you have a job, and I'll regrets all the things I don't do during my teenage years. But I believe that in the future that there will be a satisfaction in my heart since my childhood is the best and I experience so many challenges that I surpass and it develops me to become what I am today.
Introduction about Myself
Hi everyone I'm leomar, I'm currently 19 years old and I'm on my first year of my college life, I was born in Sinogbuhan San Joaquin Iloilo and I was born on April 25,2001, I was raised by my Lolo and Lola together with my sister and brother since our parents is already deceased due to sickness. I was raised in a simple life in which I need to help in farm to feed cows and carabao, need to dig the soil so that we can plant crops and get water from deep wells so that we have water to drink and water to use when we take a bath. Its my everyday routine and it's a little bit of hard but in return it gives me joys since after my task, I can freely play with my friends, since it was province all of people there know each other, if its my free time, I went to my favorite place up in the hill then I stay there watching the beautiful scenery and wide view of ocean, im the only person there so I called it as my favorite place. Electricity is not also a problem for us since we are near at the main road and our place is in between ocean and mountain thats why the source of food and income is not really difficult for us, but sometimes we experiencing financial problem and sometimes we eat corn as a replacement for rice, im not complaining about it since i understand that our life is not easy, also during the night we went to the ocean and waiting for boats that will put large nets form in circle then we will put it so that fishes, shrimp and squids will be gather in Iloilo we called it "sahid", after we successfully pulled the ropes and the boat is already at the sand, the collected fishes, shrimp and squids will be putted in "banyera" sometimes the nets collected tons of seafoods and those who help in pulling the ropes can gain amount of seafoods, I always accompany my lola and together we help to pull the rope and we gain 1 plastic of fish, sometimes little shrimp and we go back home so that we can cook it and will be our food in the morning, my childhood was full of memories, im also schooled there in Kindergarteen to grade 5 and I can say that I have lots of fun during those days and I enjoy every moment of my childhood, when I was kid, I always swim at the sea thats why my skin color is dark brown haha, I love playing Filipino games such as patintero, agawan base and sipa tsinelas, im playing along with my friends and when I get back home my Lola always scolding me since my shirt is full of dirt.
I'm also accompanying my Lolo since he is a "Albularyo" he had lots of things to do and sometimes he needs help thats why I'm the one who accompanying him, we went to far mountains to collect ingredients for his bottle of oil called "Lana", it used to cure diseases that doctors can't and it has "orasyon" I have also one here at home and my Lolo says if there's a "aswang" near at you, it will boil, thsts why in province we always bring our "Lana" if where visiting not familiar places so that we can avoid danger. Its beautiful to reminisce my memories but in 2013, my older sister get us there and she bring us here in Manila so that we can study here, I continue my schooling in Academia de San Isidro and im grade 6 that time, I can say that my grade 6 days is bad since I'm not familiar with my classmates and its a private school thats why my classmates and so "sosyal", im not getting along with them because I felt that they don't like me, everytime our class dismiss and its time to go back home, im pulling my bag with wheels and return to home since the school is near to our house, after the class I ate first then went to computer shop to watch other people playing, im not familiar with computers that time thats why I want to watch fun games and online games, there's a time that the computer shop owner scolded me since I'm always at computer shop watching others playing, I stand for almost 3 hours just to watch them playing.
When I'm at grade 8 to 10 im starting to play at comshop some online games such as crossfire and League of legends and it makes my money drain but in return is gives me satisfaction but when mobile legends was released I stop going to comshop just to play games, we have a phone thats why I install mobile legends there and start to play, I start playing on 2018 and I enjoy playing mobile legends but the problem is my money also draining since I always buying a load so that I can play, sometimes I can't pay my school fees since my money is reserved for load hahaha, during my Grade 10 years I've putted at different sections since im late to enroll but I have no regrets on it since I enjoy my grade 10 life due to my classmates, maybe we can call our section as naughty section since my classmates makes our teacher mad all the time hahaha but high-school can't be fun without those scenarios. When I was on Grade 11 I choose STEM strand since I love science but when I already started to study on STEM strand, I wish I could go back time since the subject makes my head ache haha, Calculus, General Mathematics, Bilology, chemistry, Physics and Research is the subject, but when I was engaged in those subjects it makes me realized that all the hardship is on start and you think that its hard but when you study at it and learn it step by step you'll realize that it's a little bit of easy.
Then here comes the grade 12 in which lots of things happened, we experienced a tragedy that no one knows, my sister died due to brain tumor, I don't know what to feel that time, tears can stop falling on my eyes and I can't accept that my sister is already dead, I don't know that she had that kind of disease since at start she had a sciatica in which she can't walk since her legs is in pain after a month she already recovered then then she became anemic and her blood count start to decrease, we do everything to make her well but her blood count didn't rise, and one night she vomits a lot thsts why my older sister decides to bring her at St.Lukes hospital at the morning I received a missed call 4 to 5 times and it from my older sister, I think that my sister is already well and they will go back home, my brother is on the gate and im happy to see them together will my Auntie, but I can't see joy in their eyes and their tears starts to fall when they said that my sister is already dead, I can't believe what I hear and hoping that they are joking but they don't, I can't stop my tears falling, I fell sleep due to too much pain and tears. The coffin of my sister was putted on church so that her friends and our relatives and friends can visit her on last time since we decide that she will be bury on our province in which she was born. 2019 and 2020 is not good for us since we experienced a tragedy and a virus that shocked the world. Despite of this challenges I believe that this is a challenge from God to make us stronger, I believe that in the end we can surpass all this challenges and we can live in a normal and happy life. :)
