Brunch! ๐
Itโs the fourth day of the month already. Is it just me or time flies really fast? ๐
Anyway, earlier, mom went to the drugstore to buy meds for cold, cough and flu. But unfortunately, as she was just about to fall in line, the guard on duty announced that there were no available meds for those anymore. Even in other branches and other drugstores. So she just went home. That saves her from the long line. The good thing is, we bought some biogesic the other day, but we run out of neozep. But! Another good thing is, my order ginger and turmeric powder arrived this morning. I plan on making it my daily intake of ginger/turmeric tea. ๐ God is so good at providing us with the necessities. ๐
Happy Tuesday pips! ๐
Cheers to us, introverts! ๐ฅ
May we all continue to strive in our own ways and be free from external, negative forces. ๐

Greeting y'all a Happy and prosperous New Year noisers!! From my fur baby Marsce! ๐ฅฐ
As expected, I was too caught up with the celebrations thatโs why I haven't been active here, again. ๐ Anyway, I hope we all had a good time during the holidays and may the force be with us throughout the year.
Cheers to us! ๐ฅโจ
GOD BLESS Pips. ๐
Hiyah pips! Itโs been a busy week. We went over to my oldest sisterโs house and spent dinner in 25th. She gave these presents. She got me and our other sister a bracelet. So itโs a sistersโ bracelet, or whatever you call it. Haha. But because of how thin I am, I canโt wear it coz it slips my wrist. ๐ I must gain weight now, for real, so it can fit me. My yearly goal. ๐
That coffee cup and saucer she got for our mom. But well, Iโm the first to use it. ๐ I like how it keeps my coffee warm, especially during this time of cold weather. So satisfying. ๐
How โbout you guys, howโs your holidays?
New year is coming. May we all have a blessed year ahead! ๐
It's Tuesday hustle!
For a change, I have here coco jam spread. It's made out of coconut milk and sugar. But this one seems there's more sugar in it than necessary. ๐
Nonetheless, it still tasted good. And there's cheese because it's my favorite. Hehe yum!
Later, I'm gonna be so busy coz it's general cleaning time. I wonder how much trash we accumulated this year. Haha
Have a productive day, everyone! ๐
Yesterday was a fun day. Had a Christmas Party with my elementary friends and their other friends that eventually I get acquainted with. We do it yearly. Pot luck for the foods then monito, monita for exchanging gifts. Itโs always hilarious, especially during the gift giving because of the nonstop joking of the guys in the group. They never run out of things to say that would make us all laugh our ass out! Youโll never get bored when youโre around them throwing jokes with each other. ๐
And as for the gift I received, a cute bag. Hehe. New addition to my collections. Iโm the type to bring only small bags when I go out. But sometimes I donโt bring any at all, just my phone and wallet. Haha
Rainy day.. makes me singinโ like, ๐ถSunday morning rain is falling.. steal some covers, share some skin..๐ถ 'cept it's not morning anymore. ๐ I want to sleep all day. ๐ Haha
Stay safe pips!
Someone just unsent a message for me on messenger before i can read it. I have this urge to ask what is it because we're not in talking terms anymore for some months already so why?.. But my pride says NO. HAHAHAHA. And maybe it's just accidental so I think I shouldn't bother. Right. Am gonna sleep now.
Btw, who plays Thetan Arena here? Can we be friends/team? I need "tagabuhat" HAHAHHAHA. ๐โ๏ธ It's really hard for a non-gamer like me to rank up and my temper is getting bad. ๐
I'm afraid I might find my mobile on the floor one day. ๐
Anyways, I'm really gonna sleep now. Oyasuminasai minna-san. ๐๐ด
A date with my childhood best friend last Sunday. Itโs been a while since we've met. We got plans in the past that never happened. Only this time after 5 or 6yrs. lols
Weโre best friends since kindergarten. But my family moved to Manila when Iโm about to turn fifth grade, then we lost contact. Got reconnected in college, but boy, it doesnโt feel like we lost contact at all. I remember we still had the same energy, vibes and affection for each other when we talked for the first time since we left the province. And I feel glad and blessed for that.
Thatโs the type of friendship we have. Weโre not the typical that always have an update or have a meetup now and then. We seldom talk even in chat and as I mentioned, the last time we had a date was years ago. Despite that, the strong bond was still there, like we never parted ways. She even bought me souvenirs from her travels despite knowing when we would meet. So it got accumulated over the years and she handed them to me on our date. How thoughtful was that? Indeed, a friend for keeps. ๐ฅฐ๐งก๐ค
โA strong friendship doesnโt need daily conversation and doesnโt always need togetherness. As long as the relationship lives in the heart, true friends will never part.โโUnknown.
Good morning pips!
I woke up a bit earlier than usual, so I took the chance to make some toasted bread for myself. ๐
Fun facts about toasted bread. Originally, toasting bread was done during the Roman Empire days for preserving it. Breads are given to the workers building pyramids as a partial payment. And since they're working in the desert, mostly their breads are exposed to the heat, making it hard and difficult to eat. That's when toasting became their solution. But isn't it just the same? Either way, it just made the bread hard. ๐ค Haha
Anyways, have a blessed day ahead! ๐
Good evening noisers!
Whew. I was consumed playing Theta. Just saw some posts about it so why not give it try as well since there's free heroes. Hehe. It's like ML so I kinda get the gists of it. But I still have a lot to learn in terms of tactics because I swear, I'm not one to follow such. ๐ I just do what I want, regardless of my team. Hahaha
It's Friday. How time flies. ๐ Soon it's gonna be Christmas then New Year. Ehhh... I hope the new year brings us new opportunities. ๐
Good night to those who are about to sleep..have a sweet dream.
Yung feeling na wala pa nga ako fts kay noise 'till now tapos may new update na naman. ๐
Noise beke nemen hinay2 lang sa update. Madami pa hindi makasabay. ๐
Oh well, what can we do. It's inevitable, according to Thanos. haHaha! Enjoy lang sa pagpost at pakikipaginteract, sabi nga ni noise di ba. After all that's the main purpose of this platform naman. Bonus na lang yung tips. ๐
So, ayun gusto ko lang talaga mag goodnight. Sumegwey lang ako, napahaba nga lang. Hahaha! Nighty nights noisers! ๐
Lunch time!
Our viand for today is Chopseuy with eggs. Cooked by mother dear. Although I don't eat veggies, the sauce would do. But now with eggs included, now I can feel my stomach grumble. I do love eggs. Yum! ๐
Let's eat guys!
Chill vibes in the air. ๐ฅถ
Good eve noisers!
Gusto ko lang ikwento, kagabi when I got home, sumama na ng tuluyan pakiramdam ko nung patulog na 'ko. Nabugbog ata dahil sa kakakulit sakin ng inaanak ko na mas malaki pa sakin idagdag pa ang mga tropa kong panay din ang dagan sakin. Haha. May period pa naman ako although patapos na, pahabol days ganern. But still, iba pa rin ang pakiramdam natin basta may period di ba. Hindi kasi masaway yung inaanak ko. Yun lang isang ayaw ko sa kanya minsan. Pag sinaway mo, lalong gagawin. Isumbong mo sa nanay, minsan di rin nakikinig, pero minsan lang naman. Topakin lang din talaga. Mabait naman yun. Kaso yun nga kahit ilang beses ko na sabihin wag ako kulitin dahil magkakapasa ako, ang kulit lang talaga. Babae nga pala sya, 12yrs old. Medyo sumasama na nga pakiramdam ko nun, nafifeel ko. Nilalamig na ko kaya nakikinig na lang ako sa kwentuhan nila. Then yun nga, pagUwi hindi ako nakatulog agad. Hahah 6am na ko nagdecide uminom ng gamot, after nun saka pa lang ako nakatulog kahit papano. Pagising-gising pa din kasi pinagpawisan na ko. Past 12pm na ko nagising ng tuluyan at thank God ok na ko. ๐ Akala ko macocovid na ko eh. Haha!
Ayun, reminders lang sa lahat, pag ang babae may period, please lang wag stress-in mentally and physically. Kasi talagang nagiging sensitive kami sa mga panahon na yan. Baka hindi natin alam, iba na nagiging epekto nyan sa tao. Like sa nangyari sakin. Konting pasensya lang pag ganyang mga season nang girls. Okie? ๐
Spread love. Haha..
Goodnight pips..
Currently at my friend's house. It's her hubby's birthday yesterday. Just celebrating it today because of busy scheds.
FYI, I don't do hard drinks. ๐ I'm only here for the foods. Haha. I'm still waiting for the cake, though. I feel like it's not complete without it. Hekz
Just passing by on your feeds. ๐
THE GREAT WALL
Just finished watching The Great Wall movie on tv. That makes me recall the day me and my best @Saavy, watched this movie in the cinema.
We both love movies, but not the type to watch it in theatres rather at home. Just not a fan of crowded and noisy place when watching movies. ๐ But what made us want to see in it on the big screen was because of Lu Han. Hahaha! Heโs a Chinese idol turned actor and a former member of EXO, a South Korean/Chinese boy group. ๐คญ Iโm actually an EXO-L. So to my co-exoLs, hi there pips! ๐
Back then, we were so busy fangirling I didnโt get to understand the plot of the movie. Hahahahaha!! All my concern was LuHaen. Every time he has an airtime, we would squeal in silence. Just imagine how we did that. ๐
Rewatching it now, I still didnโt understand the story. It gets boring for me as it progresses. ๐
But because Lu Han was there, I still enjoyed it. Hehe
Haay, remembering it brings back so much fangirling moments. I missed those days when EXO were still 12. OT12 Feels ganern. Haha! But no matter where the members are now, Iโm still in full support of each and one of them. ๐
#ThrowbackThursday

#Fangirl
It's been a while since I had kakanin for breakfast. What I have here today is puto or steamed rice cake with coconut flakes for toppings and cheese. Hehe I love having it with lots of cheese since I'm a cheese lover. ๐ Lastly, coffee..I can't last a day without having even just a cup of it. Haha. Thanks to ginger tea, my acid reflux subsided so now I can have my coffee again. ๐
It's a sunny day and a Monday. I hope we get the rest we all need during the weekends. And recuperated from whatever hardships we've gone through.
Have a fruitful day pips!

Rainy Sunday afternoon ๐ฆ๏ธ
๐ธ taken by me at The Alley by Vikings
Drinking ginger tea. Acid reflux attacks. After a long time, I'm having this again. ๐ฃ
I noticed the slight pain after I had my lunch, but didnโt mind it because I thought itโs just a simple stomachache. Not until late afternoon as I was having my merienda, drinking coffee. I kept on burping and releasing gas. The slight pain became more intense. I had this thought, am I gonna die? ๐ (I know, itโs absurd. ๐ Just my initial reaction every time I can feel unbearable pain in my body. Hehehe)
Since we run out of meds stocked, I then searched for home remedies and thatโs where it leads me to this article ๐ https://facty.com/ailments/acid-reflux/10-home-remedies-for-acid-reflux/10/ (if you just want to check out) It says that ginger root can help. We didnโt have ginger root, but good thing thereโs powdered ginger stocked somewhere. ๐ Mom made ginger tea for me and as of the moment, I can say it is effective. I can feel the pain easing. I already finished it while typing this ๐ so I guess Iโll be having another cup first thing tomorrow when I wake up. Sad thing is, acid reflux means no coffee for me for a couple of days. ๐ญ
Haays now I donโt have the appetite to eat. But I need to, coz it might lead to another stomach pain if I don't.
Just a friendly reminder, take everything in moderation. Hehe
Afternoon tea. ๐
My mom had me order this tea days ago to help for her gout. She heard from a local radio station that sheโs been listening to that it has lots of benefits not only for people with gout but for other illnesses too. It says that it is made out of the inner bark of a famous South American tree, Lapacho Morado.
As I searched about it, I learned that the bark, leaves, and flowers of this tree can treat various conditions such as an abortifacient, anti-anemic, antioxidant, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, antifungal, and to promote wound healing. So I guess thereโs no harm in trying this one out. After all, itโs herbal and most of us know, if not all, that our ancestors used herbs to treat their illnesses when medicines were not yet invented, and most of them lived longer than any of us now in the new era. Last, for legitimacy, I bought it from their official store just to be sure.
Mom said I should drink as well, for I am prone to having UTI now. My lower backside hurts when I wake up in the morning. I should really watch my diet but itโs hard when coffee is life. ๐๐
Anyway, I am just passing by. I still have some work to finish. Iโm hand sewing old shirts. Altering for a more summer fit. Hehe itโs hot in here, thatโs why I need more refreshing clothes.
Ja, ne! ๐
Lolo Mingming is back! Char ๐
After eating his lunch, hayahay na ulit ang lolo. Geez masyado na talagang feel at home. Nagalit pa nga kanina pipicturan ko lang naman. Kakalmutin ako. Eh buti magaling ako umiwas. Reflexes to the rescue. Haha! Why so sungit lolo? Damot mo sa picture pinakain na nga kita. Hmp ๐๐
Maulan na hapon dudes. Sipon is waving na naman to me. ๐
Keep safe po sa lahat! May we all have a productive day. ๐
Hi! Good evening!
This is my furbabe Oppa, people-watching, just chillinโ. ๐
He likes hanginโ out the window, even my other fur babies. And if I wasnโt looking, heโll climb up the grills. Gives me the headache when he does. ๐๐
Have you had your meal yet? I still havenโt. Iโm still full of the late merienda I ate a while ago. Hehe. Just a few more minutes, then Iโll get my dinner. I canโt skip it coz for sure Iโll have a stomachache in my sleep.
Good night to those who are about to sleep.. ๐ด
Hi pips!
I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank the people who give me extra blessings out of their wallets. ๐ I rarely address this out of personal reasons/point of view about the matter, but I want everyone to know who had been kind enough by giving me โextraโ that I really am grateful for the kind act. Just so you know, what you did doesnโt go unnoticed. I just try to pay it forward, since I want others to feel blessed too. Just like me. ๐
Keep the love! ๐ฅฐ
Hola noisers! Another hot afternoon. ๐ฅต
Last Sunday, me and my girlfriends, @saavy and @Chixchic143 (sheโs just new here, btw), had a girlโs date. Itโs almost a year of planning. I no longer expect it to become real this year. ๐ But it did! Yey! Hahaha. We went to Unli Samgyupsal type of diner. The place was cozy. Food was good, but not as compared to where Iโve been before. Even so, I love they included tteokboki and fish cake in their menu coz Iโve been craving for it. Just a bit disappointed because I was expecting a lot of sauce, but what they served us was a kind of dry and cold. We just put it in the pan to warm it up. ๐
I had a great time, thatโs all that counts. Hehe. We were planning on having our monthly rendezvous. Take the most of our quality time before everyone has their own family. Sure, when the time comes weโll be busier than we are now, hardly get to see each other.
For now, looking forward to our next dates. ๐โฃ๏ธ
I just read somewhere..
One of the hardest part while moving on is to realize that the feelings may still linger, but the desire to pursue the person isn't there anymore.
I highly agree with this statement. At some point, we'll realize it isn't worth it anymore. The sacrifices, the tears, heartaches, everything. You just have to drop it all at once, turn around and never look back to avoid further damages. Start anew. That's all you need to do.
Yesterday, my best friend invited me to eat out, a post birthday treat for her and also for her brotherโs work promotion. I was quite surprised though, because they know Iโm not a big eater, so to be invited to a buffet kinda shocked my tummy. ๐ Nevertheless, I enjoyed it. I love the foods, although I didnโt get a taste of everything. Just a few of those that I rarely eat. And of course, the desserts. Cakes and ice cream, my favourites. I would never pass the chance! Hehe
Iโm so grateful for yesterday since I could enjoy another experience. But most importantly, for the kind gesture of including me in their family celebration. Iโm touched. Haha! ๐
Later, Iโm going to my other best friendโs house with the other troops. ๐
Happy morning noise pips! ๐
Morning coffee for my tired soul. ๐
Itโs really heartbreaking having to lose someone. Itโs like your world is falling apart.
Yesterday, one of my sisterโs high school best friend, just lost her daughter. She was her first baby and just about a month and 18 days old. Itโs painful to see her fb posts. We saw her pregnancy journey through her posts up to when she finally gave birth. She never missed a chance to show off her first times with her baby. Any parent would do, right? Especially when youโre a first time mom and we are living in a digital era. And now this. I can only imagine how devastated she is. ๐
I know God has different plans for them. Lots of people are praying for them, for her. Sheโll be okay at the right time. ๐
Good evening pipz!
I had a great time with one of my besties. Itโs her birthday today, so she invited me over. Itโs been so long since the last time we shared a good time. Life got us busy. ๐
Now Iโm super sleepy. I canโt tell if itโs because of the wine we drank (which I barely drink because itโs too bitter for me, I didnโt get to finish it. ๐คฎ) or my vitamins. Ever since I started taking it, I always feel extra sleepy, to think that Iโm always like this even before that. ๐ Itโs just getting too much. Feels like I can sleep all day. ๐คท
Oh well, Iโll just go to bed. My eyes are getting heavy. Till tomorrow. Good night beautiful noisemates. ๐๐ด
Pahabol na dessert. Birthday ng frenny ni kapatid kaya nakapag-uwi sya nito. Sakto medyo nagkecrave ako sa cake. ๐
Nanood ba kayo ng KMJS Gabi ng Lagim? We did. And as usual ginawa na naman naming comedy night. ๐ Ewan, basta hindi naman sya nakakatakot para samin. Yung mga gumaganap kasi nakakatawa eh hindi naman scary. ๐ Hinahanapan din namin ng butas yung explanations nila about certain topic. Hehe. For fun lang. Di rin naman namin alam kung ano ang totoo sa mga experiences na yun. Basta chill night lang kami dito. ๐
Nawa'y makatulog tayong lahat ng matiwasay mga kanoise. ๐
Goodnight sa mga patulog na. ๐ด
Soooooobraaaaang inet! Nakamamatay! Konti na lang talaga magmemelt away na ko. ๐๐ซ๐ฅต
Mainit na hapon peeps! Merienda time na. Ano po foods nyo dyan? Pahingi naman. Haha char. Ako bread with cheese lang sapat na. At coffee. Haha. Iniisip ko nga mag iced coffee ulit. Kaso parang gusto ko rin kasi ng hot. ๐ค Pareho na lang kaya pagsabayin ko? ๐
Haay nabuang na si inday epekto ng init grabiii.
Wag kakalimutan uminom ng maraming tubig guys para iwas heatstroke. ๐
Kain po! ๐๐ง๐งโ
Just my bebi Dudoy saying hi! ๐ธ
It's hot. It makes me melt. ๐ฅต
It's another day for new opportunities, new blessings, new everything. ๐๐
I've been busy these days trying out other play-to-earn apps. It's engaging at first, but my patience is getting short and it makes me want to just delete all of my gaming apps. ๐ The impatient me getting on the loose again. ๐คท
Hope you're all well and don't forget to drink lots of water. Stay hydrated. ๐
