I am currently undergoing a lot of seminars online. My workplace is providing us with a lot of stress since the pandemic occurred. But I could not blame anyone for this. What I still thank is that I have a job to do and I still earn a living. I am hoping everyone is coping as much as i do.

Reply 1988 Kdrama Series Of all the kdramas I have watched, this is the best. I just cant get hold of my emotions whenever I get to watch a video clip of this series. This is not a common Kdrama series as it talks not only lovelife but friendship and family. It has caught my attention as I have heard of a lot of good feedbacks about the series. Little did I know, I'll get hooked up to it. This drama teaches its viewers to value friendship and family. Yeah, it may sound clichè but it really gets through the bones. I'd recommend this over and over again.
Music Therapy Are you fond of listening to music? How does listening to music change your feeling? How do you cope up with anxiety? I have been a little unwell lately. I have been really anxious about the virus and its effects. There has been a lot of military people in our city. To help myself brighten my mood, I listen to music. Basically any type of music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FK3rLHSwEv8 I am so sorry for being an oldie. I am a 90's kid. I love this song. I love its lyrics. I love how it is sang. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQqMKqArUvA This song too is one of my favorites! I hope these songs will brighten up your day! I hope you'd rekindle the good old days. I hope you love A1 and their songs. **ENJOY!**
UP: My Favorite Cartoon Movie! Carl and Ellie, a romantic love story. Do you know Carl and Ellie? Those who have seen Up would most likely recognize who they are. Up is a 2009 cartoon movie. Yes, that is an old one but I have just recently seen it. https://youtu.be/M9rLM_55loQ This shared clip is one of the best part of the movie! Yes, call me hopeless romantic but I wish Ellie could have lived longer and see the paradise she longed to see. Until now, I really have not moved on from the movie. If you have not watched it like me, please watch it. It's a movie about Ellie's dream of going to a paradise in Africa. The couple saved money to travel there but every time they save money, some thing tragic happens which make them spend their savings. I like that part because it teaches people that when you want some thing, you really have to save money for it. Also, it teaches people to be patient. Unfortunately, Ellie died without even having the chance to have a glimpse of the paradise ---- A VERY HEARTBREAKING SCENE! Do you know how it feels to root for something yet it only ended in a tragic ending. My heart weeps for them. It's so sad that Carl has to spend the rest of his life alone. Good thing, Russel came to brighten his life. I have not spent my childhood with a grandpa. But I felt like that's how my grandpa would treat me if ever I have had him with me during my childhood days.
3 Unique Health Hacks Have you been fearful over getting Covid Virus? Lately, I have been hearing a lot of complaints from my friends about their fears over the virus. Who wouldn't be? I am also one of those who fear the virus a lot! So what have I been doing to get rid of the virus? I have been wary about this virus ever since it broke out in China last year. When the Philippines recorded its very first case on this virus, I have been reluctant in going out. So when work and school declared to stay home, I managed to find a place away from the crowd. Yes! I lived in the mountains when I may opt to live in the city and work online ( signal strength in the city is way way better than in here, but I do not care). I have stayed here and thank God there has been no recorded case yet in our Brgy. as of the moment. While staying here, I really make sure to just stay at home. I do not go out when it is not needed. Also, whenever I go out I make sure I wear mask. I believe prevention is better than cure. I constantly take a bath and wash my hands. What do I do to keep me away from the virus then? Steam inhalation. Drink a lot of water with lemons and ginger. Lastly, have enough rest and exercise. Note however, that these tips are not CURE from the disease. These only make your immune system strong. Lastly, **KEEP SAFE and STAY at HOME!**

My Read-Cash Journey How did I know about read-cash? I have been eager to find an online job ever since this pandemic has hit us hard. Yes, I struggled everyday for survival. While browsing facebook, I found someone posting about Read-Cash. It hit me. I like to improve my writing skills. And I also like to earn. Upon registering and being in the system for 3 days now, I realized that I like to write. I no longer mind the earnings I will get because of the new point system. I get to express myself in a daily basis. I thank @mynameisrizasaniel for inviting me to this page! This page is really a nice page! RE
Dandruff Do you have dandruff problems? If you have, this article is for you! I have been constantly suffering pain from the itch in my scalp. This has been going on for the last 5 years of my life. Sometimes, it disappears naturally. Sometimes, I put on natural remedies. When I was in my province, I never had any dandruff problems. I usually put on some coconut oil on my scalp to make my hair look shiny. Little did I know that coconut oil helps the scalp to be healthy too. Now, I have a problem with my scalp. So I put on some natural remedies for such. Now, you may use the following home remedies. Aloe Vera Gel: Lather on to the scalp and let it set for 2-3 hours. Rinse with clean water. Do it 3-4 times a week. Coconut oil: With the use of a cotton balls, lather the oil on to the hair. Set for at least 5 hours. Then rinse. Best use when the oil is mixed with lemon juice. If these home remedies are not yet effective, try these drug store products: Nizoral Shampoo. ApproximatelyPhp 40 for 1 sachet, about 10ml Sensul Blue (Extra Strength) Approximately Php 349.00 for 100 ml


Anxious much? How to Deal with Anxiety? Lately, everything seems to be irritating me. Sleeping has been a longing for me. I usually get to sleep at around 3am. That's not healthy for me or you. But I resorted to mellow music to help me ease my anxiety and help me get to sleep. Tomorrow, I plan to do some home workout so I do not really get frustrated on being stuck inside our house. I know most people would consider me lucky for being at home and not exposed to the virus we are experiencing right now. But, you see, I am still adapting to our situation. I used to be a very busy person, that is why I find it hard to adapt to this new normal. Like being home all day long. What do I do the entire day? I have been researching for an alternative work from home. I am seriously looking for a work that would feed me when the situation gets better. Yes, I am looking for ways to make my situation better. I wanted to find a Virtual Assistant job but it requires me to have a stable internet connection. Unfortunately, I only got .08 mbps download and .11 mbps upload most of the time. Good thing there is read cash which I find worthy to express myself in.


Is it okay not to be okay? It is. Lately, I have been feeling a little bit low. I do not know why. Maybe because I do not know if I could still survive financially, or if I could still attend school, or may be it is because of PMS. I do not know. But, as days go by, I realized that I can still live. What's important now is to survive. Seeing my relatives and loved ones healthy makes my heart feel contented. I have realized I am already lucky enough to be able to live this long without being caught by the virus. Yes! I am already lucky. I thank God for giving my family good health. I may not be healthy mentally. But I am an optimistic person. I may not be okay now. But later on, I will be okay. SO now, it is okay for me not to be okay. I will just take a deep breathe. Eat healthy food and exercise.
Eyebrow Art Many girls of my generation have been trying hard to achieve that perfect eyebrow art- that includes me. For many years, I have been looking for the best way to achieve that good looking perfect eyebrow. But it cannot be denied that there is just no perfect thing in the world. Every free time I have, I spend it by watching youtube to learn new stuff. In youtube I found the technique on how to do a good eyebrow art. Yes!! All thanks to youtube. To achieve a perfect eyebrow, one needs to be patient and must be artistic. I am not an artistic person but I am just eager to learn the art and craft on how to do a nice eyebrow. Lately, I no longer practice drawing my eyebrows. And I am not so sure if I could still make a good eyebrow when I do one.
Step Father I was born out of wedlock on one Sunday afternoon in January, 1992. My mother did not introduce me to my real Dad. She made me think that my Father is the one whom she married in August of the same year. When I grew up, often, I get bullied in the streets for being someone else's child. So I confronted my mother and asked her who my real father is. She told me that the one she married IS my father. From then on, I never bothered to ask my mother who my father really is. I do not want to hurt her feelings by insisting to know who my real father is. As days go by, I feel a little disgust and hatred towards my step father for hindering my mother and father's love story. Little did I know that it was my father's decision to leave my mother for he already has someone else. And it was my step father who stood up for her when no one else would want to. I heard rumors that even before she got pregnant, there were men who liked her. But when she got impregnated, she got rejected and no one else wanted her except my step father who married her 7 months after I was born. Today, I have finally realized my mother was indeed in good hands. After having so many failed relationship, I consider my mother lucky for having someone like my step father. I no longer curse my childhood for being beaten by my step father whenever I go away from the house. Now I understand. Now I have accepted. Now I appreciate! Thank you, Step Father! Thank you for being one in a million! Thank you for taking good care of my mother! And thank you for taking care of us and raising me like your own. Happy Father's Day!
Chasing Waterfalls Somewhere in Mindanao, Camiguin is place where many tourists often spend their vacation. It cannot be denied that Camiguin really has a lot to offer! If you are planning to travel after this pandemic, consider travelling to Camiguin. About two 3years ago, I spent my summer in Mindanao. First, we booked a flight bound to Camiguin. When we arrived, there was a Kuya who went to fetch us. We spent two days in Camiguin. We spent nearly 7,000 on our total expenses. We were 7, so approximately we spent about 1thousand each on that trip. We went to White Beach, then went chasing waterfalls; Tuasan falls is the only name I could remember, then we went to Mantigue Island, to Sunken Cemetery. There's just too many places we went into but I cannot recall the names. How we did it? Excluding ticket fair and tour package payment, we decided to have pot money of 500 pesos each. We go on group tour and share all expenses. Everytime we ran out of money, we give 500 additional for pot money. The money is spent on entrance fees for each of us and for food. We don't pay for transportation as we have an exclusive contract from a van for hire courtesy of the tour package we took. That was an incredible experience. I'll share the rest of this travel in another post.
Samboan Waterfalls Hopping Who among you here have always wanted to escape reality and go on camping or maybe go to the beach, the mountains or chase waterfalls perhaps? Anything just to get rid of anything that's happening now? I share the same sentiments most of the people feel right now. For Filipinos, being locked up in one place is a torture! Filipinos are accustomed to going to places. Unlike western people or countries who experience winter and hibernate, staying at one place is a much difficult task to Filipinos. Summer happens during April and May. It is when the pandemic is at its peak or rather, when it started. Many Filipinos were not able to spend time to have vacation. Anyway, it is understandable as we are experiencing something new. Had there been no virus, had everything been normal, maybe a lot of people now are at the beach and enjoying their lives. But, let's not dwell to it much. Let's just enjoy this time. Let's spend our time with our family instead. There will be more time to enjoy vacations when this pandemic ends.
My Dark Lips I am a Filipino. And it is somewhat said that Filipinos are tan skinned. Maybe because of its tropical surroundings or maybe because of heredity. Having dark skin, I also have dark lips. I envy girls who have natural pink lips. And I wanted myself to have that pink lips. Unfortunately, I just can't have unless I go to a dermatologist and have my skin altered and improved. I know that I have not taken good care of my skin and lips as sometimes I sleep with make up on. Yes, that includes lipstick!! Lately, I have been researching for home remedies on how to have a glowing skin and a natural pink lips. The secret to glowing skin is by drinking plenty of water while the secrets of having a naturally pink lips are : (1.) mix sugar and honey and lather to your lips; (2.) put petroleum jelly at night; or (3) lemons! I have done the first two tips and I am on my second night on this as lemons are hard to find in our area and it would also be expensive. I do hope that by the end of the month, I will have a brighter skin and a nicer lips! I hope you learned something from this post.
Face Masks Today, I have decided to put on a little peel off face mask bought from the store earlier. Yes! I have finally bought something that interests me. I like to treat myself to something fancy like going to saloon and have my face and hair done. But that just can't be done right now, so I got back to home remedies -in my case, something bought in the pharmacy. So, I put on the mask on my face. It was black. Not that it's my first time but I usually have the white one. It was nice. The feeling was refreshing. It tightens the skin. Eventually, when it dries out, you need to peel off the mask. When I was peeling off the mask, it was painful. I was teary eyed, not because I was sad or happy. But because of that tiny pain you feel upon peeling off the mask. Until now, it is still painful. Those who have experienced this can sympathize me. If you have plans, just stick to wet face mask. It's better.
"Me, Myself and I" Hi! I have just started using read cash. I have just created a profile for me to better express myself in English. First, I am far from being a professional writer. I have no background about writing. It's just that I like to practice writing in English so I could better communicate and I will not have difficulties in expressing myself during the bar exams. Second, the pandemic is making me think of negative thoughts. I'd like to free myself from all the negativity. As much as I can, I would most likely write positive write ups in this platform. Third, I'd like to meet people here!! Yes, I'd like to connect with people here virtually, or maybe personally-maybe some time. I am Thea Jane! Nice to meet you! I am from Cebu but I was born and raised in Leyte. I only lived in Cebu since 2008. English is not my mother tongue! I am 28. I'd like to connect with you one day. If you would like to visit Cebu, I will be willing to tour you around. Stay safe! <3
Re: Bloopers.. Upon checking my account, I have found out that what I thought was blooper, was eventually and successfully uploaded and published in my account. Dang, should I still blame my slow internet connection? Should I blame the government for that or shall I instead share my experiences as a law school student? I'd like to be positive as much as possible so I will instead share how I landed my first job. I graduated from University of the Visayas in Cebu back in 2012. I landed my first job a month after I graduated from college. I was poor. I did not have enough money and resources to provide for myself. I was from Leyte. I was a CHED scholar back in college so tuition was not a problem to me. But, college is expensive. I have to earn money to survive. A relative offered to let me stay in their house and provide for my needs. He died when I was in second year. On my third year, I applied for a tutorial job. I was hired. I went out of my relative's house and tried living in another house. I lived there during my fourth year, I was not prepared and definitely not ready for the things life may throw at me. I went on with my studies and continued with my tutorial job at the same time. I was a fighter at that time. And I am longing for that spirit. I landed my first job through the help of a teacher who has a very good connection to the outside world. I know it was my first time to work. I do not want to disappoint my teacher for her trust on me.
Read-cash bloopers.. I have tried writing something and posting my write ups in Read Cash. Unfortunately, I did not exactly followed the instructions handed down to me. I do not know if it was successfully published or if I would be able to get paid on that post. I had to rewatch the instructions and found out what I did was wrong. This is a good avenue for me to practice writing in English. A great avenue for me to earn too while on lockdown. Also, this community will help me express myself through writing while getting paid. I really have been looking for an online job which would require me to have less than 1mbps internet connection. I really have problem with our internet connection. I am currently residing in an area where there is less to no internet connection that I even miss seeing the signal bar on my phone. What could we even do to have better internet connection? I did all the possible things there are to address this problem. I have called smart customer service number *888 to have this addressed. I was told that our area's technical team has not yet upgraded the internet connection in our area. How do we address this problem? I felt so helpless upon hearing the same line, the same spiel their customer care representatives have been telling me. Should I just give up and just rely on a very low internet connection? I was to tell about my first time experience here in Read Cash but I ended up telling my frustrations over how slow my internet connection is. Good Day!
For the love of law.. To me this is a good avenue to address my concern on the recent attacks on our laws. An introduction of myself - I am a law student, currently in my junior year of law school. What was taught in our school is to administer fair justice to everyone. That, even an accused has his own rights to due process and equal protection of the law. It is an elementary principal in our laws to give people the justice accorded to him in our constitution. But our justice system is also problematic as it accords more protection to the rich than the poor with regard payment of lawyers fees and other litigation expenses. This has been addressed by the creation of Public Attorney's Office but then our people are often trapped to the hassle of our judicial system. Yes-- it is really hassle and worrisome. I have experienced a few hearing visit way back when there was still no community quarantine and I have seen how long and how tiresome a hearing could have particularly a criminal case hearing. I am really sick of all the inconsistencies, lies and unfair administration of justice in our country. We have seen just how pathetic our people are. I would really love to learn more of the laws of the land and maybe, one day, I would be able to help those who really are in need of fair justice.
