Trust Issues: I Learned to Be Alone
I, as a shy type girl. I didn't share my personal problems to others. Because, my friends didn't stay with me longer and I have trust issue before. Sometimes, I am shy to talk or share my problems to my parents. Because, I don't want to make them worry about me and add burdens to them.
I have friends, but. **I don't considered them as my friend...hehe.** Because, they will remember me. If they need something to me. Literally! Like, if they need help about their assignments, reflection, projects, research and so on. They will chat me and asked for help... Then, me??-I'm shy to say, "sorry, I'm busy", because, I'm afraid that they might get angry with me. So, I did it for the sake of our friendship..Lol.. I felt sorry for myself.. I am just like a servant to them.
Before, it's okay for me to help others, to help them, because they are my friends and I really love to help other people. But, when, I just realize that they abused my kindness to them, they didn't treat me as a real true friend and they are so lazy enough for their academics. I do muted them in messenger. They don't even, ask me.. If I'm okay now or how's my life... **That's why, I learn to be alone. By myself. Without anyone trusting except my family.**
I just realized that, when I will help them and help them. They will never learn to stand by their ownselves. Because, they depends on me. **And, I just tolerate them to be lazy enough in their academics**... I helped them before, but...My explanation about that problem or about their assignments.. Is not enough...Like, yung gusto nila na.. "Ako mismo ang gagawa ng assignment nila"... No choice ako before.. Dahil, ayokong mawalan ng kaibigan... Kaya ,naga search na lang ako kung ano buh meaning ng ganto at ganto... Para talaga akong servant noon..Haysstt...
But, yeah... I tried to ignore their request or favor for how many times..I'm so sick, reading this one...
**"Whit, pwede favor?"**
**"Hi, Whit! pwede pa help?"**
**"Whit, busy ka?"**
**"Whit, for sure kaya mo ito"**
**"Whit, bigay ka ng reflections mo dito"**
**"Whit, easy lang ito sayo"**
**"Whit, ikaw gawa ng research ko. Please, di ko kasi maintindihan"**
**"Whit?, saan na yung pinagawa ko sayo?, Bukas na kasi pasahan namin"**
And many more.. **Nakakairita na!!.. Like, hellowwww!! Busy din ako sa academics ko!! Nag-aaral ba kayo?? Nakikinig ba kayo sa teacher niyo?!! .**. I really wanted to said that to them. But, you know. **I really can't...** Yan kasi, ang mahirap. If matalino tayo...Di naman sa matalino ako.. Siguro, slight lang..Hahahaha... Mga kaibigan natin mag dedepende na lang kasi satin. At, minsan, mas inuuna pa natin ang request nila kaysa sa ating gawain...Yun bang, hindi mo sila mahindian.. Haysttt..
Did you feel the same situation to me?...
**I do ignored them for there favors for me.... Because, I want them to learn and don't just depend on others.**.. We are the same student, we learn and ask. Yeah, it is normal to help others if they really can't..But, when you observed that they depend on you and they don't learn or just analyze that easy situation or article... Please, we need to ignore them...Need na talaga na pagsabihan sila.. Na intindihin ang project na pinapagawa sa kanila..
And also, I didn't share my problems to them. **And, now, I don't have real friends, even real classmates**..Hahahaha...After I ignored their requests..But, I expected this before... I don't want to trust again... Because, before. I gave my trust to my friend...I treated her as my own sister. But, guess what?? .. She betrayed me.... And I will never ever forget that ***worst thing in mylife.***...
After that, I do trust again.... Find myself, or what can I say. Finding a circle of friends that will accept me, whole-heartedly.... I trust again and again and again and agakn... And, I'm so happy before. Because, I have friends...Wow!!... But, as days, months was passed by... Everything turns into negative....
It is so hard to be super kind, soft-hearted person, helpful, or super bait. Because, even your true friends that treated you as a real friend before. They will make you as a servant at the end... Because, we don't know how to say... **"Ayoko", "Busy Ako", "Pagod ako today".**.. Even, we always there for them when they needed our help... They will never help us or feel there presence for us if we needed their help... You know, that's the reality nowadays... They just think about theirselves.... :) But, NOT all people are like that. **"Maybe, Other, other people".**
One time, my friend said to me.. **"Boring mo masyado Whitney. Kaya ka, iniiwan ng mga friends mo dahil di ka marunong makisabay. Kaya, walang tumatagal sayo. "**
When I read that phrase. I cried and cried. I just replied to our GC.. **"Ay, sorry po.. hehe"**.. Then, I muted it... Nakikisabay naman ako sa mga jokes nila. At pinipilit ko talagang makisabay. **But, I think.. I just stucked for what they expected for me.**.. Kaya pala, pag di ka matalino, pag di ka maganda o mayaman... Wala ka talagang kaibigan.. Yan lang yung napapansin ko sa realidad ngayon....
But, you know... When I get older and matured.... I'm okay to be alone. Hahaha.. **I'm happy even I'm so alone**.. I don't have problems.. Away, from toxics and plastic people... One thing that I learned in my situation before.. **Being alone is not that bad. If others will not accept us. Then, we don't need to force them.**
Btw, I read this post in facebook..
**The 6 Signs of Maturity**
**Small talks never longer excite you.**
**Sleep is better than a friday night out.**
**You become more open minded.**
**You respect differences.**
**You don't force love.**
**You don't judge people.**
I also learned, on **how to love myself more. And treat myself as a queen**...:) I don't need to change myself or my attitude just for them..Para makasabay sa mga trip nila... If they don't accept me..Then, okay..DON'T.. :)
I hope you also did that one. I know, you experience the same situation with me before. But, Look at us now... We know how to handle situation and make decision na nakaka good sa ownself natin...
We don't need to push ourselves to the things that we don't know..Kagaya ng research ng iba, o projects.. Kasi, may priorities din tayo...Wag lang..Bigay ng bigay sa iba..Tirahan dkn natin self natin...
--**Be Happy. Even we are Alone.. Dahil, sa pagiging alone natin. We unlocked another skills we have and capabilities we have. :**) --
And if you have friends na di ka talaga iiwan.Na laging nandyan sayo..Please keep them..Kasi, napaka swerte mo na..:)
Do you have trust issues also?? Please share it to the comment section. I'm gladly to read that one.. :)
Thank you for reading...

Baking/Cooking is One of My Passion/Skill
Have you feelin' the same thing with me, that you really wanted to eat foods. Just like cakes, cookies, pizza and so on. And you don't go outside.? Like, I am lazy enough to go outside to find an open bakery. hehehe. So, my mom told me that. I must buy ingredients I need if I will go to marbel or supermarket. I will share here, the ingredients of some foods that I baked.
If our skill is **eating and eating**... Hahahaha..Then, we must learn how to cook or bake also, by our ownself.. Huehue..
One thing that I will never forget to buy when I'm in marbel are the **1 kilogram of flour, eggs , star margarine and yeast.** It's so simple ingredients... But, yeahhhh... I can bake **hot cake** out of it.. My whole fam eat hot cake and we can save money. Unless, when you buy hotcake, for 5 pcs. You will spend 25 pesos. Then, **"kulang pa sayo".** That's why, nowadays, we need to be practical for our safetiness and budgeting our money. It is better, that we are the one who bake or cook the foods that we eat because, we know the cleanliness when baking that food. It is for our safety also.
Anyway, I started to bake something last 2020, during Lockdown. Around April?... I think?? hehehe. It was boring that time and every afternoon. I'm starving, and I wanted to eat bread. But, all the bakeries are close. :( ... And that's the time that my mom told me that,"If you will go in marbel, you must buy those ingredients"....
We **Filipino's**, love to eat every afternoon. It's called, **"merienda".**. Usually, we eat banana que, hot cake, isaw, barbeque, chicharon, fishball and many more.... It is more likely in street foods....
I will share here, what do I baked... It's just a simple ingredients that you can see in your kitchen. Unless you have flour. hehehe...So, here it is..
The first one that I bake or cook . Is **HOT CAKE.**. Hot cake is so famous, even when I'm young. It's so yummy..Literally! And it is easy to bake.
This is the hot cake I cooked. This is just only my part, because, I gave it to my family. They enjoyed eating it.
Ingredients:
1/2 kl of flour
2 eggs
Yeast
Just mix the three. I didn't put coloring, because, I want it.... Mas nutritious kasi if walang coloring. Hehe :) Then, after mixing the three, put a 1/4 amount of water and stir it until it will melt. After that, leave it for just 10 minutes para **"tumubo" .** At, pwede mo nang lutuin.. Then, charan lagyan mo na ng margarine at sugar**...Enjoy eating!!**
The next one is..
**Cookies**. If you want cookies. Then you must try to bake this one. Lahat ng binake ko ay **"NO NEED OVEN"**. Kawali lang gamit ko.. :)
Ingredients:
1/4 flour
1 condens
1/4 sugar
1 kinayod na niyog
cheese(optional)
yeast
baking powder
Just mix it all. And after that. You can create any form out of it. Then, cook it in the pan if you don't have oven. "Manipis lang dapat ang pag form or e flattened niyo talaga ang pag mold ng shape. Kasi, lalaki kasi yan pag maluto na". Hehehe...After that, enjoyyy!! may cookies na kayo. Superrrrr, sarap parang nasa bakery ka lang.. :)
Next is..
**Pizza**. :) I like pizza, but. I didn't try to eat the real pizza. Yung binibili talaga..Mahal kasi..Hehe. This is my first time to bake pizza. But, not literally bake.
Ingredients:
Bread
hotdog
eden cheese
mayonnaise
That was my ingredients in baking pizza. Ah btw, I flattened the bread and make it as the crust of pizza. I put it sa malaking kawali. hehehe. Then, I put the mayonaise as its paste. Then, the grated cheese, hotdog and another grated cheese above as the topping. The more cheese, the yummy its taste. And lastly, put a **ginisang onion** in the top of it para mas lumasa. Just cook it in a low heat lang para di masunog ang bread, pag nag melt na ang cheese. Pwede na kunin at chraannnn... Ready na ang hot ketchup. Enjoyy your home made pizza!! :)
You know. I do cook/bake a lot..Just like, puto, cake of my sister, cookies, cupcakes and so on... But, this are only some of what I do.
If others can do.. Then, we can do it also.. Pag hobby natin kumain ng kumain..Hahaha.. *****Dapat hilig din tayo magluto o mag bake bake for the charr..*****.Hehe..
So, ano na mga sisss.. For sure magugustuhan yan ng mga kiddos niyo ang meriendang gagawin niyo. My mom, always stock flour in our house. So, that anytime. If we want to eat bread. Then, we are the one who will do it. We don't need to find open bakery to buy something to eat for merienda. :D
I hope, I shared something new in baking a different foods and also in sharing the ingredients of it.
Thank you for reading..
Hilig ka din ba mag bake bake for the charr?? Hehe.. Of course, dibah? Kasi, mahilig ka ding kumain... Pag gutom.. goodbye diet.. Wala nang diet diet ngayon..Portante talaga busog ate healthy. :)
Btw, I just wanted to thank my first sponsor. Ate @Janz . Thank you so much for appreciating my articles.. lablab.. God Bless Us All.

Classic Member of Shopee: Review Products
Are you a shopee member too? When do you start to trust this app? :) To be honest, I really love shopping unless, I have a lots of money. Lol. Hehehe. And I look unto **cheaper** products but, **good quality.** I will share all the products that I've been bought in this app and also the review on it.
Before, I'm so **afraid** to buy in online because, of the **rumors in the internet** that they received products that different of what they expected or orders. Just like, they received rocks instead of phone. Lol. But, my curiosity strikes me to try shopping online.... So, I tried to buy product in shopee. Since, shopee is the most famous advertisement in youtube... Hahaha..... Dibahh?? **"Shopepe Shopepe"..** Also, the Lazada is the famous ads in Tiktok.... But, I didn't yet try to order in Lazada.
Anyway. The first product that I bought is soap. The one that I saw in facebook. Since, first time ko mag order. Wahahaha...I didn't know which button will I go first to click. Lol.. Then, I ask the seller... She said," ***Please click the item of your order ma'am. Then, click the check out. After that, answer the delivery form"*** .
I follow her instructions and yeah. I did it. Wahahaha... I'm so shy when I asked her.. But, after I check out and place my order. I didn't ask anymore..hehehe..
The day of the delivery. **The J&T Express** texted me that please provide the proper amount. An hours later of waiting, the delivery boy called me.., **"where is your house ma'am?"** . (lumampas na pala siya sa bahay namin). Anyway, this one is so funny. Since, this is my first time to received a parcel. I thought, I should sign up or put my signature and open the parcel in front of the delivery boy..Wahahaha.. Nakakahiya.. Then, he said to me... **"Ma'am, first time mo po mag order"? ..** Then, **umOO** na lang ako at sabay sabing, "**Thank you po"** na medj natatawa..Hahaha .Sheggss, kahiya superr..
This is the first product that I ordered in shopee**.** *****The WYN Gluta Kojic Radiant WHITE***** at the ****stellatrading**** shop. I saw this in facebook. Hehehe. I tried to order it for only **165 pesos** plus shipping fee na 100plus.. Mas mahal pa ang shipping fee. Lol...
So, I don't know if I glow my skin in this product. But, I think, my skin is not **"hiyang"** on this. Anyway, this soap is so heavy and easy to bubble with free skin scrub. You must try it. Why not..? Dibah? Baka hiyang ka..Hehehe..
The next one is....
This was the second product I ordered in shopee. The *****Essentia Glam to Glow Rejuvenating Set***** at ****hajimebeautyph****. I saw this in tiktok. Like, wow.. Is this really true??.. Hmmm, I must try it.. So, I save money in order to buy it. For only **389 pesos** plus 100 plus shipping fee..
So, this one really helped me to get rid all my pimples, acnes and dead skin. Supperrrrrr nakaka glow up..huhu.. It has **collagen soap, toner, sunblock and serum. 4 in 1..** In just a week, all my pimples are **"lumabas" ,**it's called **purging stage.** It will last **4-6 weeks**. Then, after that, my pimples are already dried and yeah..I achieved my glass skin. I recommend this to you. :) I already wrote an article about this. You can check it into my articles **"My rejuv journey".**
The third one is this...
I ordered it in 6.6 Mid-Sale of Shopee. Naka less ako, so I ordered 5 bars of it. Thi is a *****SAKURA x4 Whitening Soap***** for only **69 pesos sale** plus shipping fee of 100 plus pesos at ****imoutosakuraaa**** shop. Di talaga mawawala ang shipping fee.Hahaha...Mahal masyado ang ship... I saw this on tiktok also. And yeah.. Famous siya masyado na soap. So, hahaha.. I tried it.
When, I open the parcel, it was wrapped with a pink heart bubble wrap. So cutiee. And the smell of it is just like candy... Hehehe..You know, this soap helped me to **lightened my skin in just 2 days** of using it. My skin started to light and glow up.. You must try this one.I really recommend this soap to you. And for now. This is the Permanent soap that I will be used. :) The best soap ever!!
Next one isss...
I didn't order this one. But, I won this in give away in tiktok. You can check her shop in shopee: *****reisskincosmetics*****. The best ang magic serum niya. I used the dark one. I didn't expect na manalo ako sa give away niya.hehehe.. You can visit her tiktok acc:*****reishaquinga*****. Baka ikaw naman manalo sa pa give away niya. I just paid the shipping fee and the 5 pesos fee of the product. The best product that I've used in terms of liptint and cheecks..
-I know, we love to shop. But, always look the real one. I mean the real shop on it. Because, nowadays, we can't deny the fact that many shop immitating other products. And if you use skin products, please. Don't forget to **patch test**, to avoid irritation in face. :)
That's all. This is not sponsor. It just only base on my experienced in shopee. :)
So, what's up?? Nabudol ka na din bah?? Hahahaha.... Habol pa sa 6.6 Sale...Para maka less mga sis...
Anong Shopee experienced mo?? Share nemen diyan..Hehehe
Thank you.. :)

How to Avoid Spam or Plagiarize?
This topic had make sense. I think?.... Since, we are writers and we don't need to copy and paste the text easily from the others to avoid plagiarism. Later, I will give some link to paraphrase texts if you needed. It will help you in terms of creating a research, and so on.
As a writer and journalist in our school before. I do write an articles. But, sometimes, it is hard to make an intro and outro about the topic and also the whole body of it. But, when we practice harder. Then, it is easy for us. They said that .**"PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT"** . And that's true!
So, back in the topic. **Plagiarism is one of the common mistakes we've done even before and it is consider as a crime. Since,** **it is the same in copyright violation.** And yes. We can't deny that fact that sometimes, we copied amd paste texts coming from the Internet or Google.
When, we say Plagiarism it is when we copy the idea of the person and when we admit that it is our own idea and also, **when we copy the own content of the person whithout their consents or approval.** It can be a texts, work, ideas , essays and so on. It is a very intentional act that we want to steal that original content from the author because, we don't give credit to them. But, when we say **paraphrasing**, it is unententional act. Because, we **paraphrase the original text into OUR OWN understanding or what we say our reflection coming from that texts.**
When we, try to copy and paste texts. **Always, give credit to the original author**. To avoid spam or plagiarize. That's why, it is important to know the proper citing of the authors when using textbooks, websites, dictionaries and other sources. We need to give "**CITATIONS**" for them.
Example:
**Plagiarism is one of the common mistakes we've done even before and it is consider as a crime. Since,** **it is the same in copyright violation.** Whitney123 **(2021)**
Giving credit or citing the author is so important in inserting or using supporting details in our articles. In our country which is Philippines, it is consider as a cybercrime. ***Republic Act 10175*** in according to the DOJ or the Department of Justice.
So, how to avoid Plagiarism? What are the things/ways we should do??? I recommend this ways to you to avoid plagiarize:
Always create your own/original content
Try to understand texts/phrases
Read more books to further gain more understandings
Always cite or give credit to the original author or websites
Try to paraphrase text which is your understanding coming out from what you read
Take time in doing your articles, research and assignments. Because, it takes time.
Don't just COPY and Paste. Lol. Think well.
And always remember this phrase **"Don't claim something, if it is not yours"**
Ohhhhh... Before, I forgot. One thing or ways also to avoid plagiarism are to **SUMMARIZE** the texts, **QUOTING** it and **PARAPHRASE** it . This Three(3) are very essentials in creating an article. We can use this ways or tactics in writing. :)
**SUMMARIZING**
-->When we say Summarizing. It is when we shorten the original texts . We summarize it on what the over all or focal point of that texts.
**QUOTING**
--> When we quote (" ") the texts on what the author said. We just quoted the text if we copied the exact words from the author.
**PARAPHRASING**
-->Is when we paraphrase/rephrase the text by our own ideas or understanding coming from what we read.
Always remember that 3 words. :)
I think, you already understand what's my point about how to avoidi plagiarism or spamming? Make sure that you Just create a unique title or original content. :)
So, this time. I will give some links on how to paraphrase texts and to know if you plagiarize texts. Here it is.
In *****paraphrasing***** a texts.You can use this one: https://quillbot.com/
--It is easy to use. You just paste the text you wanted to rephrase. But, make sure that. You also, put your own understanding after you rephrase the texts. :) --
In checking a texts if it is *****plagiarize*****. You can use this links : https://plagiarismdetector.net/tl
https://www.duplichecker.com/
--If you want to make sure that your articles are not plagiarize. Then, you can use this one to check it. This links are very important in creating researches or paper works. -- :)
I think, That's all for today. I hope, I explained it well. :)
**--"BE UNIQUE: Don't just COPY and PASTE" --**
Leave a comment if you want to give your opinions.. :)

I Want to Fall In Love Again: But, I Can't
Have you feel the same thing with me?That you wanted to open your heart again. You wanted to fall in love again and open for possibilities with the people who courted you. But, We **CAN'T** open our heart again. Because, we are afraid enough to trust again.... That we are afraid enough to fall in love again....That we are afraid to hurt again...**.That the history might repeat itself...**
I also, feel that too. **I'm afraid, that one day I will experience the same pain I experienced before.**
We all know that love is all about falling in love with that person, is all about **passion and commitment.** Love is when we gave our full trust to that person. Before, I fall inlove to the man that open my heart. Hmmmm.. Maybe, I will make another article about this one, on how I met my first love. Lol.. Hahahaha..
Anyway, back to the topic. When we fall in love, both our heart and minds are working on it. We can't stop our feelings to that person if our heart beats for them. Falling in love is when we gave or share our all kinds of emotions, because, we are comfortable enough to each other. That's why, we can feel fear to fall again when that love grows from our past and our heart filled with love before.
You know. To be honest, I want to run away from any relationships. I want to be single and enjoy my life alone. Because, I have nothing to do with the love and anything that can cause heartbreaks. But, I also want to open my heart again. To trust again. To feel love from our partner. To be happy as well.
As a women, when I fall in love, I fall hard. Like, it takes a years before I fall in love to that person. Because, I'm afraid that one day, during with his courtship days. He will leave me, and find another women because, I'm so hard to get. Lol. And I'm so boring enough. Hahaha.. If I'm not comfortable to that person. I didn't talk unless you are the one who will talk to me first. And that's one of my personalities. And I can't help it.
During courtship days, we can see the willingness of each other and the patience of the men, when they will answer by the women they loved. Courtship days is when a couple gets to know each other and decides if there will be an engagement. So, courting is very important before entering a serious relationship. Courting includes activities such as dating , like eating a meal or watching movie. Yieeee. Street food date is enough and its ok for me.
I do fall inlove with someone I love when I was in Grade 7. I thought it was a **"puppy love"** . HAHAHA. But, until now I have crush on him. Well, I already created an article with this. You can read this if you want. Here's the link:https://read.cash/@whitney123/i-have-crush-on-my-sakristan-boy-bestfriend-3b54cdb4
I do tell to him last time, when you help me to decide if I will be honest to him. Yes! I said it to him. You know, what happened next? HAHAHA. He replied to me that..
**"It's okay to be honest pasaway(my nickname that he created to me). Yey! I am the only person that you loved. Thank you pasaway. Hopefully soon, I could hug you" ...**
I'm happy that I already said it to him. But, sadly, after 2 days. We didn't talk or chat anymore. Lol. HAHAHA. I feel ashamed. Like, okay. I will accept it. But, hopefully, our friendship will still okay. It's just like, I ruined our friendship. huhu. Haystt.. But, Atleast, I already know that, he can't love me back. That his, flower phrases or words he uttered at me before are all jokes or lies. :)
But, you know, one thing that I learned from that. Is, being honest is really really okay. There's nothing wrong about it. If we hurt, then. **Accept that fact and fix ourselves.** Being in love does not mean that someone is perfect, it simply means that they accept you just the way you are with all your failures and stupidities.
And also,
**"We should Never ever force someone to love us back. We deserve to be loved whole-heartedly. We are so worth it! If someone couldn't make us feel that we're worth it, we must better set him/her free. We deserve happiness in life and we should be treated like a prince/princess. "**
And lastly, don't ever be like me. Don't stop yourself in loving that person whom you fall inlove. If you are afraid, that you might be experience that pain from your past. It's okay. Atleast, you've tried and you've showed to them that you are so pure and honest for your feelings to them. :)
Hopefully, one day. God will gave the right one for us. The right one that will be our last. :)
Please remember this phrase **"If your relationship failed even in the strongest storm, then, that's Not the relationship that God wanted you to have". :)**
**Everything happens with a purpose and always Trust God's process for us. Do not rush for love. Wait for God's perfect timing. :)**
**---"Never settle for less and always remember your worth"----**
Thank you for reading. :)

How My Mom and Her Cousins Survive in the Dead River(Tragedy)
It is very interesting story. It is all about how my mom survived in the river together with her little brother and her cousins. Imagine, in a very young age. Without knowing something. They tried to save there selves. And I can't imagine there shouting and crying..**.**
**" Hey, hold on!!". "Maaaaaa!!! Help us!"". "Lorddd Help us".. "Kapit langg!!"... While crying and panicking.**
So, I asked my mom to narrate it to me. And yeah, I do write it down.She narrate to me the whole flow of that situation they encountered and her eyes are full of tears every words she uttered. I do cry also. :(
**-----"**When I was young we lived in the mountain. There was no connection of water and light or internet. When we go to school, we have galloons with us and we will keep them in the thick part that is also close to our school. When our afternoon class is over, we'll go to where we hid the containers. And we will continue in the spring that the whole barangay has been waiting for, a few of us will be there.
On the way home we were already passing the **"dead river"** which was the only one we were crossing. My constant companions were my two cousins and one younger brother. While we were walking, we talked happily and because children can't help but play. We didn't even bear the weight of our two -handed water galloons with a bag full of notebooks and a few books. As we happily walked, we also happily played in the shallow water along our path.
At a young age, **we didn't even think that there might be rain up there or in front so there was very little water flowing in our path. We didn't even think that it might suddenly grow up.** We continued to walk and were just a few feet before our house. **But I was alarmed and shocked because the water was suddenly reached my knees and there was no rain. And suddenly I looked ahead. And I yelled, Occupied! At my brother to my two cousins “Let’s go up to the side!" .**
But it was too late for everything to float on the water at my feet. And my cousin, who was about my brother's age, they clung to the side of the mountain that was outstretched so that their hands had the force of clinging. While my cousin and I climbed the other side of the mountain but, every land or rocks that we step on with our feet are washed away by the water. So we clung to the branches of the trees to climb to the higher part of the mountain.
But even in that case, I was still holding a galloon of water in my hand. I didn't even think to let go. When I suddenly let go of the branch I was clinging to, **I was "swept away" by the very strong current of the flood water!** I shouted **“Niiiiiittttt”** my cousin’s name with me trying to save ourselves. **When she saw me she "drifted" in the flood of water and tried to reach part of my body and she grabbed my hair and she pulled with force at the same time looking for our parents.** And I climbed the high white rock that was very rough. Because of its roughness our hands do not slip. And we were sitting there on that rock that we were exhausted in saving ourselves.
We watched the river we passed. Waiting for the floodwaters to disappear. Meanwhile, we shouted at my brother and at my other cousin because we were a bit far from them and I was the one who drifted away. **I shouted "Hold on tight !!! don't let go !!!" Soon the water will turn dip down"**. We are shocked, because of the duration of the event.
**My cousin Nita said "let's go down. .let's go home".** I was afraid to get off the rock we were stepping on. While one of my cousins and brother slowly approached us because the water was only a foot away. At the same time, they said let's go home, Ate, and it's already night. I slowly descended and a rough kind of rocking we climbed. **And I couldn't stop crying as I hugged my sister. Because I never thought my cousin would save me in such a situation.**
It seems like nothing happened at that time. As we made our way home we did not lose our fear that the water might suddenly rise again. We went home with our muddy clothes soaking wet. Because of the excessive dirt of flood water and muddy water type. My brother and my cousin who were just there on the edge of the ground or the shore clinging. The skins of their thighs and feet were scratched. Because of the pebbles and branches along with the flood drift.
We arrived home without even a galloon of water. **When we got home almost at the same time the four of us were roaring and crying**. We can't even speak in our grief. Our parents made us drink water as well as my cousins and their parents. Then they gave us a drink. They question our parents what is happening to us. They can't even believe it because, there's no rain at all. Our crying parents hugged us.
**What if we didn't survive in that tragedy? What if my cousin Nita didn't save me? So that night our parents talked about “let’s leave that place”**. Place far from civilization. Neither light nor water. I didn't quite understand then what kind of life we had. Because, I was only in grade 3 then. **But I will never forget what happened in my life.**
As time went on, our lives became better and better. **That even despite the hardship we can feel comfort and we have many relatives around us.** Unlike before when we lived in the mountains there was no other family and we were just my mother's brother's family. So far, even a few years have passed I will never forget. We studied and somehow we even finished Vocational because at that time life was really difficult. Unlike today there are many Scholarship grant aid opportunities. **I can say the time was different then and now. "**
**"So now that I am a parent I try to make them aware of “Education” which is the only way for human life to be transformed towards comfort. " That no one will do it but you for the good of your own life. "**
**---Enddd---**
I can't believe that they suvive with that very tragedic situation. God never leaves them.
**Lessons I learned:**
**1.) Don't wait for something to happen before you can think of something good for yourself.**
**2.) Helping others is not bad but it is a heroic deed. That you have to be thankful and look back on as you live here on earth.**
**3.) Don't ever pass in the river. Because, we don't know what will happened next.**
**4.) Pray and trust the Lord always.**
Thank you fof reading.

We Will Not Stop, Until We Reach Our Dreams in Life
Dreams are very essential to each one of us. Dreams are what we praying for. Dreams are what we aiming for. And what we want to be. You know, sometimes. Others says that.. **"Why will you dream that one, when you know already that you can't achieve it?" ..**
Hey hey... Let me tell you this one. If that person tell that to you... Don't ever ever trust to them. Why would you trust people if they are the one who pulled you down. If they are the one who didn't trust with the capabilities you have. Is that a true friend?
Our dreams do not depend on what others tells to us. Our dreams do not depend on our family, on our friends and on our parents. Because, it depends on **"OUR OWN CHOICES". It depends on us. We should follow our dreams in life.**
Following our dreams is easier to reach. If we are dedicated with it. If we are 100% that we really want that dreams or profession we wanted to pursue. :)
You know? Even though I'm not in college yet. I seem to be thinking, how about the life of the colleges now?. I know they are having a hard time now. Because, even I'm still in senior high. I'm already undergoing anxiety that I might not be able to pass this subjects and so on. To all college student who can read this post. I saluted to your hardwork. Your success are approaching. All the hardwork you have experienced will be rewarded with a good life soon.
So. Great things take time. Be patient, your blessings are coming.
All of us have dreams in life ... All of us want it to turn into reality... All of us trying to achieve it... We do our best to step unto it.... We aim high as we can.... We never give up for it. Because, we wanted to get it!
Me, as a student. Sometimes, I think and ask to myself...
**" What are my biggest dreams in my life?"**
**" I can be a lawyer someday? "**
**" Those dreams that I wanted to become, will be come true? "**
**" I can give my parents a proper living? "**
**" I can help my siblings to finish in college? "**
**" I can survive in my course?"**
**" I can give the street children a proper shelter and living?"**
**and many more........**
Those things, always bothered in my mind. That's why I try to stand to myself. Even sometimes, I'm so tired enough.
I know that, we experienced being hopeless, undergo anxiety, tiredness, and depression. Sometimes we rattled and worrying if we can survive our chosen course.
One thing that pulled us down is our own friends. Literally!! If they know you can do it. They will never cheer you up. Promise!! . If they know that you are in the stage of succeeding. They will grab and drag you down.That's why. I never ever trust my friends. I mean, I never put my whole trust to them. Because, as what I observed nowadays. **Those whom we treat as our friends, as our bestfriends or our close friends. They are the one who will even pull us down ...** Then, sometimes it seems like we are already down on our ownselves because of the critiziation they said to us.. And suddenly we can say to ourself that, **"Yeah, maybe I can't do that".** Haysstt... **That one feeling that we wanted to say bad things to them.But, sometimes, it's better to keep silent than telling others how we really feel to them because, it hurts knowing that they can't hear or feel all our rants and they don't really understand our feeling inside....** Feel me??
Well.. That's the reality now. And we can't blame them. But, we need to trust our very own self and in our family. Because, whatever may happen in our life, our family is always there to cheer up us and motivate us to aim high and strive hard as we can. Our family, is the only treasure we have. And, we never give up in our dreams because of them. In terms of our failure and success. They never leaves us nor ignore us.
That's why ,our parents always tells us that... **"Never trust your friends. Only family and yourself" .** Because, friends , classmates are just temporary. **Seriously!!** They might leave us soon, if they don't get benefit from us or if they find another circle of friends.
But, guys. Let me tell this to you. Being alone is not that bad. One thing that I learned from my situation before is. It doesn't mean that we don't have friends, then we will become sad. We should always find the positivity without friends. Just like, you can stand alone, you can be independent, you can do what you want without the hindrance coming from your friends.. Think it twice.
Find a way, to be succes. Find a way to reach our dreams in life. Find a way to finish or survive our chosen career. I want to see all of us that we are SUCCESSFUL someday!!! Waiting for that day that all our hardships, all our efforts and sleepless in our student journey will pay someday**. I KNOW WE CAN DO IT!**
Kaya natin to.. We will never ever give up, Until we become successful in our life!! Let's CLAIM IT! That we can do it! Pray pray pray pray pray!. We can't reach our dreams in life without asking guidance and strength to our God Almighty. So guys, what ever career we choose, may God will always enlighten our minds and give us strength and hope to achieve it.
I believe in you. And I will always believe in you until the end. Cheer up!! Laban lang!! Kaya natin to!! Maging Successful tayo soon!!
:) I hope, I've motivate you and cheer up you on what problems you encounter now!! Our hardship will be worth it someday. !! God Bless Us All and keep safe.
@whitney123
I want to cry. Because, I didn't expect for this. But, sir @MarcDeMesel. Thank you for reading my articles. Especially, the "Sir Marc De Mesel As An Eye Opener To All: Legend of Crypto". Thank you for upvoting my 2 articles for $300 in total. God Bless You. More Power.
Sir Marc De Mesel as an Eye Opener to All: Legend of Crypto
All of us known his name. Sir MARC DE MESEL. I know that you also aspired him the most. Because of his kindness and purity. I didn't know him before, but the noise.cash and the read.cash, introduced me to meet him. My journey in this sites is not that easy. Until, I recognize him. I tried to search about him and know more about him.
Sir Marc de Mesel is the legend of crypto. He was a great youtuber and a best man who loves voluntarism. As I watched his videos on youtube. I can say that **"Hopefully, all man like him"** . He was so generous and have a human heart-kind. He helped many people in terms of giving something and He didn't think if that people will help him soon. He is so kind to all.
Sir Marc de Mesel is a great investor since 2008. A capitalism, well-known crypto investor, youtuber, BTC and BCH investor. If you watched his videos, you will be inspired. Because, **he is not only a great investor of BCH but, a loving father to his kids and a loving husband to his wife.**
This picture is him and his loving daughter. So cute little girl and so lovely. **I love how they smile and how he introduced his baby Tintin.** She started crawling but, cannot stand yet. In that video, my heart melted. Because, his voice was so pure and I can see from his eyes and smile that he is so happy with the family he have. He was such a great influencer in terms of:
**--"FAMILY"--**
Family is one of our treasure. Family is the only one that we can give our full trust and we can rely on them in terms of our up's and down or in our failure and success.
**"Sir Marc, as a youtuber. He used that platform, not only for BCH and his investments. But, to spread the positivity and how we gave time to our family. Even he was busy, he always gave time and effort to spend time to play with his kids. Even he was giving his explanation in his some of his videos with his kids crawling unto him. He didn't get mad on it. Because, he gave value to his family. That's what we called "The Best Dad".**
We need to give value to our family also. Even we are so busy enough in terms of our work and studies. We should spend time with them. **Quality time makes our family relationship strong and still**.
According to Marc , **"I hope that I give more quality time, love and attention to my kids, than I got myself from my parents" .** That line strikes me the most. He wanted to give his kids a full support, a love they deserve and attention coming from parents. He really a great influencer to all of us!
Next is.
**--"TRUE LOVE"--**
Love makes us happy and feel complete all day. **Because LOVE, is the only thing that will last at the end**. Although sometimes we are heart-broken or unlucky about love. (Awwcch.I felt that) But, we are trying to find our true love.
Anyway, in some videos and pictures of sir Marc. I saw his wife. Ommyyyy... She's so pretty girl.
They are both looking good. Their smiles are so precious. We can both see them from their faces that they are so inlove and happy. It tells us that skin color is not a hindrance to fell in love with each other. **Because, the true beauty of a person, was coming from within or in the inner self.** True love is when you both fall in love with each other and it was becomes filled with passion, and commitment.
According to Sternberg (1988), that there are three main components of love: **passion, intimacy, and commitment**. Love relationships vary depending on the presence or absence of each of these components. **Passion** refers to the intense, physical attraction partners feel toward one another. **Intimacy** is about loving trust and support each other by sharing in our partner's feelings and being there when they want our presence. And **commitment** occurs when a couple agrees upon a certain level of commitment to one another.
This picture is coming from his Live in youtube. **Titled: "How to get a Pretty Girl".** We can see in that video that love realllllyy reallly existttsss... My heart are fluttered when I watch this one. **Her wife is so beautiful and they are both happy living with each other.**
That's what we called true love. And yes!! Because of them, I believe that true love really exists. Despite with our imperfections, skin color and status in life. I hope all men are just like Marc de Mesel's personality, were it never look on the skin color of a woman. Proud to you sir Marc!
The next is...
**--"KNOW HOW TO INVEST AND SAVE MONEY"--**
**"The biggest benefit to pay with crypto is that you are building a better world by using it. And that's a great feeling" -by sir Marc.**
Sir Marc de Mesel as one of the best influencer about investments and Bitcoin. In his videos, he discussed about the Bitcoin, how to successfully invest in bitcoin. How to become rich in Crypto and so on. His videos give us clue on how to be rich someday!! How to hold your investments for how many years until it will increase. How to hold and sell with our money. I know, many people here become rich because of his explanations about investments. That's why. If you want more about how to invests money, try to watch his videos. You can get there a reliable details.
Next is...
**--"BEING KIND AND GENEROUS TO ALL"--**
Kindness is the sincere and voluntary use to other people. With our time, our money, and resources to better the lives of others and to all people. A person who give help to others without thinking in return.
Sir Marc de Mesel. Helped a lot of people in the world. Maybe, that person is you. :) Not only in financial but also, other things like, teaching us to be a better person. Sir Marc, is not only a great investor but, a great teacher, adviser and influencer to all of us. **He teaches us how to be kind and generous to others.** How to help those people who are in needs. He is not selfish, even he was already rich. He always give and give to others. And that's what we called **"HUMANITY"** . Even, we Filipinos, even what country we are. He is open to all. And **helping is one of his personalities that really shaped him as a real person and a real hero to all.**
Because of him, I learned that. **Even we have a lot of money, cars, houses and so on. If our heart always tells us to be kind to others and we are willingly to do it.... It will be...**
Lastly....
**--"AN EYE OPENER TO THE YOUTH"--**
I, as a youth... I mean We as a youth... We learned a lot from him. We know how to be practical in terms of giving value or importance to the money we have. We know how to help others and give what we have to those people who are needed our help. We learned about, how to love each other even we are have different skin, different status in life and different personalities. We learned how to invest money**He serves as the eye opener to all people to spread "EQUALITY" ..**
I don't know, if he will read this or notice my article. But. .
**---Sir Marc de Mesel. If you can read this article. Thank you for all the learnings you shared to us. You shaped us the real personalities of a person . You are such a great role model to all and the best influencer I've known. THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR! I will always here, to remind how amazing SIR MARC DE MESEL I've ever known"**
Btw, I created a sketch to him. But, I don't think so if it is good enough..Because, I'm not good in sketching. But, I do my best and full effort with this as an appreciation with his kindness to all. I posted this before, last May in noise.cash.
I put this in frame. And display it in our house. I know it is not perfect. But, I like it as my sketch. :) (Self-appreciation)
I also, wrote his name and design it with Bitcoin designs. Can we all say. **"THANK YOU SIR MARC DE MESEL FOR ALL THE LEARNINGS YOU'VE SHARED TO ALL OF US"** in the comment section.

Thank you for reading.

My Rejuvenating Journey
Hi dear.. :) If you are using any kind of Rejuvenating Set. You must read this one. I used rejuvenating set before until now. **I will share to you later the most Best Rejuvenating Set that helps me to achieved my glass skin face. Charr ..**
So, when I was in grade 10. I tell to myself that I want to try something new because, I'm so sick seeing myself, I mean my face at the mirror with full of pimples and dryness of my skin. Of course, I am in the puberty stage and I can't deny the fact that I want to be beautiful also. Hehehe.
So, I search a lot of things on how to get rid of my acnes, black heads and pimple marks, how to be beautiful, how to improve my face and so on. I do search at the youtube, facebook and google on how to improve my face. So, this are the common things that I've search:
***-How to get rid of acne?***
***-What is the best rejuvenating set?***
***-How to achieved glass skin?***
***-How to be looking good?***
and many more.....
Btw, this is my face before. When I don't used any products.
As what you can see from the picture, I have many pimples in my face. Black heads and black holes..Hahaha..And also, superrrrr dryyyyy....Sorry for my face. Lol...
Anyway... The first product that I used before was "PORCELANA toner". This is the Porcelana Toner..
I used this before. But, when the first time I used this one (maybe 1 week). My face burned. As in!! Burned!! So, I stop using it for almost 2 months after the week that my face burned. And, use it again for 2 months. I can see my improvement of my skin. But, "feel ko di ako hiyang" . Actually, I search also about how to use it chuchu... I used it every night only and after I washed my face before going to sleep.
But, suddenly my face turned into this...
I undergo breakouts and peeling. I know it is normal but. It's almost 2 months already.. Yet, my face is not clear. So, I decided to STOP using it.
Then, after 1 year, without putting something into myself. I search some ways on what are the proper use of Rejuvenating Set.
We need to use it day and night
Put an ample or 3 dots of toner in the cotton
Gently, apply in your face in upward motion
Put a plenty amount of Sunscream in your face to avoid Burn
Do not expose from sunlight
Lastly, use it for 1-3 months only. Then, rest our face.
There are some users who sometimes use the rejuvenating set only once. Then they should take a long rest for two months or more. Others can use it for 2 or 3 months in a row.
Anyway. What are the things we should remember if we use any rejuv set?? Btw, the kit is usually composed of a cleanser, toner, cream, and sunblock that all aim to exfoliate and protect the skin.
------> ****We should always APPLY SUNBLOCK!****
------**>Use toner and cream every other day then use it everyday on the following week**.
------**>Always remember that with PROPER USE and CORRECT AMOUNT put on face, you'll achieve that skin you have ever wanted!**
What will happen or side effects if we use rejuv set?
Peeling of skin. Since it will remove our dead skin from our face.
Light tingling or burning.
Discoloration or age spots as they rise to the skin's surface before getting sloughed away.
Our skin is more delicate after using rejuvenating sets, so avoid direct sun exposure.
Lastly, we can experience Purging stage.
Let me tell this to you... This is the one thing why other stop when they can feel that they experience pimple breakouts. Or what we called "PURGING STATE.
Before, I also used other rejuv set but. Yeah. I experienced that one. I thought my skin is not "hiyang" But, it is a good sign dahil ume-epekto na ang product na ginamit natin. At yun ang pagkakamali ko. We don't need to stop using rejuv if we feel something or observe something like peeling, redness, purging, and itching.
Btw, the process of having pimples while using rejuvenating set is called **PURGING**. Dermatologists say purging should be over within **four to six weeks of starting a new skin care regimen**. If your **purge lasts longer than six weeks**, consult your dermatologist.
**(REJUVENATING SETS: DONT's)**
Do not mix other rejuv sets with other products. Stick to one only, because our skin may be sensitive when using rejuvenating sets.
Do not expose to sunlight it can cause burn.
Do not use if pregnant or lactating, unless tagged as mild and safe to use.
Wag din nating biglain ang face natin. Dahan dahan lang sa paglalagay para di pangit ang kalabasan. It takes time. So, take it slowly. Ma aachieve mo ang want na skin mo if you use it in a proper way. :)
This is the Rejuv Set that I used now. And it really helps me to get rid of my pimples. I saw this on tiktok and yeah. Nabudol ako sa shopee. Hahaha...
Essentia Glam to Glow Replenish Kit Collagen Booster. I bought this for only 300 plus pesos. Sulit na sulit siya masyado. This is the shop. Sulit din ka chika ang seller. Gina guide niya talaga ako.
For morw reviews. Check niyo na lang po shop nila. Pati sa tiktok. Hehehe...
Again, this is not sponsored. It is based on my experienced. Sharing is caring. Malay niyo hiyang kayo dito. But, always remember na mag patch test muna before usinh this product into your face. Test the skin for sensitivity to the product 24 hours prior to use. If no allergies occur, you may start using the product. In case of sever redness and itchiness during patch test, stop use of product.
This is my face, when I used this rejuv for 2 weeks... Di pa masyadong clear dahil may pimples pa.. Pero, patuloy lang at wag talagang magpapa-init....hehehe..Pero, fresh din naman akong tingnan.Charrr..Kasi, parang sumisidlak face ko..Hehehe
This is me now. As you can see may naiwan pang mga maliit na pimples at mga pimple marks. Dahil, 3 weeks ko pa kasi nagamit. Nag undergo din ako ng peeling at purging for almost 1 week sobra. At unti-unting na hehealed din naman.. Makati siya sa 1 week na pag used. But, always remember this phrase... "TRUST THE PROCESS" :) ..
Stick na ako dito since, mas hiyang talaga ako dito eh..hehehe..Sharing is caring..:)
But, always remember that we have different skin types. Patch test talaga before mag use ng any products para iwas problema. :)
Thank You....
Ikaw?? Anong rejuv journey mo??

Writing, Help Me To Pay Our Monthly Wifi and Electric Bill
As a youth who lived from poverty. I always think how can I help my parents in this Pandemic. How we can survive if they are the only one who work hard to sustain us and to survive us in this crisis? "How?"...... That's my mindset everyday. Because, theres nothing more than painful things in this world seeing our parents sacrificing for us to raise us well, Seeing our parents crying and tired in everyday stress in thinking for our everyday living.
This is my first time to pay for our wifi and electricity bill. How?
Back then, I was looking for apps that could make money like Clipclaps, Buzz Break and so on. But, it is very long time to get money there. I spend my whole day to scrolling and reading to earn points. Because, I really want to be able to give at least small financial help to my parents. But, I only have 2 pesos in my Gcash. So hard, to earn money in apps.
But, On May 1, my older brother introduced me to the Noise.Cash and Read.Cash sites. You know, I don't know how to use it. But, I explore all the rules, updates, and what BCH is. I was naive before. But, I really enjoyed posting and I was able to gain friends there around the world and talk to someone even strangers. And, I'm not alone anymore.
I started with nothing. Until I learned to use my little ability that I can do at least to help my mom and dad. Due to the current Pandemic, we don't know where to get our daily food. We do not know how to survive in this crisis. How much longer will our problems end ?. But, I know God is merciful and He will restore the world He rules into peace with harmony.
.
.
You know? I'm happy. Super happy.
Because we, are previlige that we can received any amount in posting here. Unless, in the other platforms like facebook, twitter and so on, we can't gain nothing.
-----> "**Always remember that, it is NOT the Earnings we can get, BUT the Learnings we get from other people here."**
**----->"This platform is created, so that we can gain friends, we can interact with others and we can enjoy making good stuffs and enhance our writing skills here as well as we can earn.".**
**We are so Bless that we are part in this platform. This really helps us especially this days.**
I used my ability to provide help with our household bills. Like paying our monthly wifi fee and electricity. I told my mom that, while there was no class, I would do everything to help them. I know my mom have a hard time finding money to borrow just to supply all we need and with daily food. So, I will give them my little help. I am just a student with high aspirations in life, I am only a grade 11 student who aim higher to be a professional Lawyer someday.
I don't think if I cannot give my self I want, but, seeing my parents happy and stressless is worth enough.
All my sleepless at night, my tiredness and dizziness in writing an articles is worth enough.!!
Because, that was the only thing I can do, to help my parents in terms of financial problem. "Lahat ng pagod ay bumunga na" . I earned 2,000 pesos from both read.cash and noise.cash. And I can't believed I 've come so far.
Even 1 peso, I didn't give it to myself, instead I give this all to my parents to pay our wifi bill and electricity bill. Also, I buy our lunch.
I want to cry, because I can't believe that in small amount I've receiving from my hardships in writing. I can help my parents now.
I cannot find money in streets. I cannot find money in scrolling in other platforms.
But, I want to say, "THANK YOU read.cash and noise.cash for changing my life. For helping me to pay our wifi bill" . I will do all my best, inorder to help other people also.
We need to be practical nowadays. Always give value the money we have. Always think for the goodness for your family. We don't need to be selfish in all achievements we achieved in our life. The more we give, the more we recieve. That's why. I'm not selfish in terms of something I have. If I can do that thing, then I will do it in order to help others. Because, being generous and kind shaped us as a person.
Atlast, I want to tell this to all of you. Do not abuse the kindness of this sites. Post what you want but, always remember that it is your own content and you work hard for it. I know all of us needs money, but, it is worth enough if it was coming from our mind and hardships . It takes time, patient and efforts. May God Bless Us All Always.
To all my friends/subsrcribers. Thank you so much for all your support . I'm not alone anymore. And everyday, I learned something new in your life in reading your articles and posts.
This is the start of my journey. I mean our Journey at tuloy-tuloy na to...... :)
Laban lang para sa pangarap. Don't ever give up!! Thank you for the motivations.
God Bless. :D

Difficulties of Life We Experienced Before
I grew up in a poor family. I went through the same hardtimes that my parents went through before. It is tearful to think that we have born poor in this world. I'm sorry, as I write this, I'm really crying because I wasn't think the hardships of our lives back then. Both my mother and father were unemployed. But. my father is a Retired army. But, we can't receive his pension because we advance it before. So, Driving a tricycle is all we rely on, inorder to eat every day. Our tricycle was **Kawasaki**, which was almost made of steel because of its old age. Sometimes, we even push it, because our house is close to the mountain, then when we run out of gas and we don't have any money for buy a fuel, we just walk towards in our school.
We are seven (7) siblings and we are all still studying. I am the fifth of our siblings, but my mind seems to have matured due to the hardships of life. We make salt, soy sauce, oil, and sugar as our viand to alleviate the hunger. We used to borrow 1/2 kilos of the rice to eat and enjoy it even in a small cup of rice we had in our plates. I'm still in the nursery and I haven't even had a penny to buy something to eat inside the room. I have two younger siblings under my mother's care, while my father goes around looking for passengers. My older brothers are still in elementary school. Sometimes, they don't come into school so that they can help our mom to take care our younger sister and brother.
That was our life until I stepped into elementary school. I wanted to help my parents, so I decided to look for a job. But, it was impossible because I was too young before. My mom thought of borrowing again money even though we were already in debt. She borrowed money to buy peanuts and I would sell it inside the classroom. I'm hiding it, because we're not allowed to sell inside. That's what I do every day. Sometimes, I cry because I can't get my investment back because my other classmates are stealing peanuts from my bag. So, I just stopped selling and I just begged my classmates to share with me with their foods and I'm like a beggar before... (cry).
You know what hurts the most? When your classmates and friends are pushing you away. Then, you hear the passengers riding with **your torang torang tricycle**, saying, "***What kind of this, it looks like the bolts of this tricycle are about to be removed. Why are we still riding here?" ..*** I heard that with my two ears. I heard the painful insults of the passengers. I know, my father heard that too but, he ignored it. It’s just tearful because you can really see in my dad’s eyes and face the sufferings of our life before.
We worked hard to study. I have been a consistent honor from nursery until now, a senior high school student. My older brother graduated from college with only soup as his only dish every meal. Our parents cannot give us even 10 pesos. We are deeply in debt but, my older brother still tried to graduate and apply to scholars. He was an ISKO-lar when he was in college. You know .. My older brother is just "**grumaduate**" that his shoes and polo are still the same from highschool. So, he is my idol older brother, who even with great difficulty he was able to graduate from college. My three older brothers did not continue their studies because they could not afford to see our parents who were deeply in debt. But, they also try their best to find work and finish high school.
**As what I can see, raising a huge family is so hard. Before we step into creating a family. Always remember to plan and have a descent job that can sustain our family soon.**
**Coming from poor family is not the hindrance to stop dreaming and aiming our dreams. Because, our poorness before, serves us as our motivation to pursue and work harder than we can. So that we can lift up our family from poverty.**
And now, we strive hard to achieve our goals in life. To help our parents and to have a better future. Laban lang talaga sa buhay, dahil ang Panginoong Diyos ay nasa gilid lamang natin upang tayo'y gabayan at tutulungan sa ano mang pagsubok na ating nararanasan sa ating buhay. God Bless US all.
Thank youuu...

My Wrestler Life Before(Batang Pinoy 2016)
As far as I remember, I was grade 6 that time when I first time to enter in this competition. I joined Wrestling in Batang Pinoy last 2016 in my City which is Koronadal City, South Cotabato.
PROUD KORONADALENEOS HERE!!!! :)
Me and my little brother and little sister joined Wrestling.
Before, we were so afraid because the sports we chose were very difficult then. Our parents were also shocked by the sports we chose. We are still hesitant if we will continue this sport. Because, we have no choice. We ran out of slots in other sports. So, we went to wrestling. Lol. Its super unexpected ..Really. However, our parents were still supportive to us.
Well, we took a picture to get ID and beddings. We orientated and introduced ourself to our other teammates. In wrestling, we have gained a lot of friends and we also enjoy it.
We do the training every day because the first Batang Pinoy competition is nearly approaching, which will be held at the Depita plaza only.
After our class, we immediately go to the training court to train and memorize techniques and new skills so that we can lock down the opponent.
Being a wrestler is very difficult. Because, even in training, our body is crippled and tired. We did sparring to pretend that was our opponent and how we could knock them down. That’s what we do every day with my two siblings and my other teammates.
Me and my 2 siblings are so closed each other. Always together since we were little. Where one of us is studied in that school, we are also studied there. Until now, my brother and I are in senior high school and my sister is in high school. We studied in the samw school at the University.
So, there, the competition is near. So, we train harder every day. We have also bought our equipment for the upcoming competition.
Fast Forward ....
Our long -awaited day had come. The day of the Batang Pinoy competition was also held at the Plaza of Depita, where we trained every day. I was nervous that time, also my siblings, our teammates, our parents and our coach. Because it was the first time we all joined in this sport. Our opponents are from Zamboanga, Bulacan, Ilo-ilo and other cities.
The opponent's base was really based on the height and weight. Whoever is the same height and weight or close is the one we can compete against each other.
My opponent is from Zamboanga, I lose that time . I only got Silver Medal .. Then, one of my opponent quit, maybe, she was scared at me. Charr..Lol.. So, I got the Gold Medal. Hahahaha ... I received Gold and Silver Medal and my two siblings got Gold Medals.
After that, we are happy because we are carrying the name of our City. We were also supported by the mayor and the whole City hall. The tiredness in our training and body aches, are all worth it!!
We had pictures then. But I can't find it. I only saw our medals, certificates and ID.
We first enjoy the 1 week rest after our first competiton. Because, after that 1 week we will train again for the next competition to be held in CEBU CITY !! Yes! In Cebu .. Seriously, we were very excited then. Because of that, we can go to another city.
So, we tried to improved our training and sparring as well as the various skills or moves that can be used to knock down the opponent. Because, the next competition will be more challenging.
Fast forward ... It's the day of our departure.
We used Vans, all sports in Batang Pinoy will use Vans. From boxing, archery, chess, wrestling and so on. I think, 15 Vans that were used. We are only by land because there is no budget for an Airplane. Hehehe..
It's really fun to just By land, because we pass a lot of places and then we can make noise inside the Van. But, the road there is so hard and then many people vomit because they are not used to travel before. We also traveled for 2 days. Arriving in Dapitan. Vans boarded the ship and there we are slept at the top of the ship.
First time we boarded the ship and saw a lot of Dolphins. Grabeh, the food there are very expensive... Hahahaha ... We spent a lot of money, while we were still traveling.
Anyway, we arrived at Guadalupe school in Cebu. Because that's where our headquarters is. We are with our parents of course .. After 1 day rest. We start to compete.
My opponent is Two. The one I fought before was from Zamboanga and the other was from Malolos, Bulacan. I won in Zamboanga, so I'm winning to Gold if I beat Malolos. But, she's too heavy. Because our weight is different. Then he knelt on my stomach. It must also be a foul case but, the referee was from Malolos.. But, that's ok. I'm just a silver medalist.
As for my little brother, he's just got Bronze. Because his opponents are super strong.
To my little sister. She won Gold. Because, she knockdown her opponent and the other opponent was the daughter of the coach and she broke her hand when she locked it. Lol..But, it's not really broken. It looks like a sprain.
After 5 days of competition in Cebu. We enjoy the days left. We went to Disney Land there .. Super nice .. We ate outside. We went there to the Church of Guadalupe and bought some souvenirs. We have fun there and the experienced we had was so memorable.
And I also bought my first guitar there. But, after a months my brother friends broke it. Haysstt ..
As we enter highschool with my little brother. We didn't continue since we need to focus in our study. But, my little sister. Continue it. So, she qualified to the next competition in Tagum City which is the International Competition.
Anyway.. Until now, I can't imagine joining WRESTLING with BATANG PINOY before. Like, I was shocked because we accumulated a lot of Medals and Certificates.HAHAHA. As well as, I can miss the training day, go home tired and travel.
Today seems like an appropriate day to rewind and look back to our craziest things that we do. The best experienced in our life of the three of us.
(I never really imagined it. Hahaha)
This are our Medals we received:
•Mindanao Qualifying Leg ( Koronadal City )
October 25-29,2015
* 2 Golds
* 4 Silvers
•National Championship ( Cebu City )
November 28, 2015 to December 2, 2015
* 1 Silver
* 2 Bronzes
•INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP(Tagum City )
* 1 Silver
....Laban Atleta!
....Thank you....
....Proud Koronadaleños, South Cotabato
...Batang Pinoy 2016. Wrestler.

I Have Crush on My Sakristan Boy Bestfriend
I have crush on my boy bestfriend even before. (Help me to decide, how can I tell the truth to him) . Thanks.
We've met in the church when we become an Altar Server since Grade 5. I don't know how to tell this time to him in a nicest way, because I feel shy and embarrassed.
I have crush on him when we were grade 7 until now (incoming grade 12 this year). When the first time we've met each other. My feelings for him was okay. And I can't deny that fact. Not, until we became even closer when we had the same schedule of serving in the church.
Being an Altar Server is a Best Blessing in my life that God given to me, as giving me an opportunity to serve Him and to serve in the mass with priest. I'm happy to serve and my faith in God brings me to HIM even closer.
I am a shy type person. I'm not really the type of woman who immediately admits to my crush, because I really can't. Even sometimes. I don't know what I will reply to his chats with me.
Personally, I only speak once because I’m shy type. He should have noticed me first to have a topic. To be honest, I'm a very boring person when the person I talked to is so kind. Hahahaha..
But, when my brother is with me. I even beat joker, when I created jokes and laugh too much.. Hahahaha...
Anyway, everytime he's with me to serve. I really don't want to make mistakes, because I'm afraid of being embarrassed to failed. Lol. We're not close yet, before.
When we were Grade 7 we became close and started to chat. Wahahaha.. I'm so happy that time.
But, when we were Grade 8 to Grade 9. We've only chatted once since, he didn't chat with me first .. Huhu. I feel so embarrassed when I am the one who will make the first move.
Until, we really lost communication when I stopped serving in the church. Because, I transfered to serve in our GKK, because we are Proposed Parish soon. Haystt..
I really missed him in those days. So I chatted him first last Grade 10. I greeted him if he was okay.
If he is still serving.
He said he was ok and Yes, he is still active as an Altar Server.
The two of us started to communicate again. Until , we were in Grade 11. I don't know if it is Destiny?? Charrrr....
We were in the same school now, he's studying at the University where I've been studying since Grade 7 until now. He took ABM strand and I took HUMSS strand. He said we were about to graduate soon. And he will still study at the same school with me until grade 12. I'm so happy..hehehehe.
Last night, we chatted. It's all about our Throwback memories when we were still serving. Then, we change our topic. I mean he changed it.
I don't know if that's just his way to expressed his feelings. LOL.
He asked me.
------"I'm the only one person you love?", Yey..my Pasaway loves me"
Why didn't you hug me before until now?
You don't love me anymore? . Then you said you would go to church with me again. Until when, Is your next time ?? Because you always said.. Next time next time..Haystt"--------
I was really shocked. I don't know what to say..Hahahaha..Lol..But, yieee..I was shaking that time..(kenekeleg)
I just laughed at him and said ...
------"Because, I feel shy to hug you..hehe... Then, there are more Covid cases today. I can't go out yet .. Next time. That's my promise. Then, I will hug you soon. Hahahaha .."
He said he would expect what I said.
Then, he said that I change the topic.Lol...Also, he said this phrases that makes me so shockeeddd..!!
----- Why would you feeI so embarrassed to hug me? Then, you didn't seem ashamed that you loved me before?-----
Hooooyyy !! As in..Grabehhhh that's really his lines. Natameme ako ... I just really laughed and replied.. "I don't believe in true love " I told to him.
Then, he replied.
"Even if you don't believe in true love. Human love is really there" ...
Grabehhh ... I feel like I'm going to be happy or cry with excitement .. Hahahaha
... So, I change our topic. I really don't want to admit or tell the truth that I had crush on him, because, maybe he was just joking with me.? I don't know....
To be honest, I don't want to tell this to him that I have crush on him. Because, I'm so afraid of ... That our friendship will be ruined. He is the only person left to me, who I can tell my problems and I really give my trust to him.
But, I don't want to regret in my whole life if I don't tell to him about my feelings ... Huhuhu ...
Helpppp meeee ... I don't know what to do.
I'm afraid to break our friendship .Lol
I think, it's normal to have a crush or fall in love. Since, this is part of human growing ..
But, he might snob me if I will be honest with him this time. Of course, we are 18 this year ..Haystt .
Napaka loyal ko naman..Charr .. .. Hahhahaha ...
Guyssss?? Help me to decide...
Help me...How can I tell to him? How to be honest to the person you loved the most??
Wahhhhhh .... I really don't want to regret it in my whole life.
Because I think in advance.
--- What if I tell this to him, then suddenly, he doesn't like me. So, our friendship will be ruined. He might get mad at me.---- And also, I can feel embarassed or disappointment in myself.
---What if, I didn’t admit it to him. Then, he also loved me too. Maybe, he was just shy to admit it ... Hahahaha ...Charrrr...I'm so advance.Lol ...
Basta guys ...Please Comment your suggestions.. Helpp mee ... Huehuehue ..
Thank you so much ...

What are the different skills you must have as a HUMSS student??
STRUGGLES OF A HUMSS STUDENT (WITH TIPS!) By: kythesus.blogspot.com
1. You have to be confident.
The key to survive this strand is to be confident. One of the possible jobs of HUMSS are reporters, politician and lawyers and these jobs requires confidence. HUMSS students are expected to be good communicators and public speakers and so this strands has a lot of presentation activities to prepare students for their future jobs. So if you have anxieties or stage frights like me, this strand is not good for your health.
2. You have to be good at everything.
While a STEM student should be good in Science, ABM on Math and GAS on public speaking, A HUMSS student should be good in writing, public speaking, statistics, and all other subjects. In short, you have to know everything, from laws, culture, religion, science, language and everything in humanity. But you don't have to be necessarily good at everything but you really have to work hard in being good at everything. In that way, we could be good writers, reporter, politicians, lawyers and social workers who speak only facts and serve the country well.
3. You need to challenge your own beliefs.
Being a HUMSS students will really challenge your beliefs. In this strand, you will have a lot of debates even in the middle of discussions. If you are the kind of person to be offended easily and is very close minded, then you have to open that mind of yours darling.
4. Lots of writing activities and presentations!
This is pretty much expected in this strand. Since some of the people in this strand are aspiring writers, even if you're taking psychology or criminology in college, you have no choice but to do this. You'll also have a lot of presentations. From stage plays, short film, monologue, extemporaneous speech, impromptu speech, and speech choir, the list is endless.
5. Teachers expect so much when it comes to short films.
Teachers have a lot of expectations to HUMSS students when it comes to film productions. Even though you're still in Senior High School, they are still expecting a lot because HUMSS students are future writers, producers, directors, and video editors. Expectations are always there but its your choice if you will let this expectations be a part of your stress.
6. You are constantly being looked down by other people (and your family).
This is very common when it comes to HUMSS student. Other people think that we have no future in this strand and we wanted to be politicians when in reality majority of the jobs that have high salaries are HUMSS related and being a politician is not the only job for a HUMSS student. We love what we are doing and studying liberal arts won't make us poor and die lonely because our passion is what we live for.
Also..You must read a lot of books if you want to survive in this strand.Because, you are dealing with a lot of people kaya dapat maraming laman ang utak mo.
I know that, in the first stage. You can experience hardship and tiredness . But, as long you have dedication in life and you motivation...
I know you can do it!! Nothing is impossible if you try to do your all best.
Actually, its more fun if you take this strand. You can gain a lot of friends, you can build your self-confident, self-esteem, communication skills, reading and writing and also your crirical thinking. It will boost your hiddeb skills.
Promis, sa una lang yan ang makakaramdam ka ng takot at kaba. But, if you cope it up already. Then ,everything will be easy fo you.
All of your hardship and less of sleep. Will, be all worth it at the end. Always remember the word "PROGRESS". So, never push yourself if you can't do it. .You must be tired, but never ever give Up! All you need to rest.
LABAN KA-HUMANISTA!!!
FOREVER UPLIFTING HUMANITY!!
Thank you. I hope that this article can help you...

Our Favorite Place
"I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU, I'LL PROMISE"... Those words he said to me 8 months ago echoed again in my mind... I was here in the park, sitting in the bench where we first met ... I close my eyes, take a deep breath and feel the fresh air ...
Flashing back all the memories that we had when we were here in the park ...
((All pictures that I used in this story are coming from Google. So credits for all the pictures)) Thanksss...
The first time we saw each other, right here where I sit now, the days that he courted me, the days that we spent our time with each other to eat siomai and talk each other, and the day that I said my precious "YES" to him ...
I still remembered it, it was June 23,2019 . He said that, he was to be the happiest man in the world when I answered him ..
We were both happy in our relationship ... And as the days, weeks, months were passed by ... That's how we always do ... After our class, we come here to talk, share problems, eat siomai and work together in our assignments and projects ... Though we celebrate the monthsary, we also celebrate here ...
Until we reach the 3rd monthsary ... He surprised me, gave me a bunch of flowers, a couple necklace, bought me my favorite siomai and he gave my first kiss to me ...
While eating, He put my moon necklace to my neck and I also put his sun necklace to his neck too .... I also asked him, why moon for me and sun for him ... "Darkness and light ?? So, I'm the darkness ?? Like that ??" .. I asked him na medjo may pagtataka ...
But he smiled and kissed me in the forehead ... And started to explain ..
"Do you know why? Because your my moon ... You have scars, imperfections, and dark side but darling, just like the moon, you're always beautiful ..I don't know why everytime I look to the moon, it makes me smile, I feel refresh and removes all the pain and burdens that I have... I always fall inlove with the moon every night as I fall inlove with you baby.... And I'm your sun , because I'm always your light, You always find me when you have problems, and of course sun is alone too, but still shine "... he uttered while holding my hands; it's shaking and sweating, a sign that he's nervous ...
Napanganga na lng ako at medjo natameme ... So, I hug him tightly, dahilan ng pagkahulog naming dalawa sa bench ... Halos tawa at saya lang ang nadama namin that night ... We were both enjoy and I can say that was the best memorable monthsary celebration that we had ...
And I didn't expect na yun na pala yung last monthsary namin ... This place is so much important to me, dahil dito ko lang naramdaman lahat ng mga masasayang ala-ala na kasama ko siya ... I smiled and suddenly my tears bump down to my face ... When someone touch my right shoulder ...
So, I opened my eyes and turned my head on it ..
And yeah, I see him ...
It's Cristian, my ex-boyfriend... The one that I loved so much... He smiled and sat besides me...I was shocked, because I didn't expect that we would meet here at our tambayan place ... We were both silent ... And the sadness of the two of us was obviously can see in our face ... But after a while ...
He broke the silence , ...
"Kamusta ka na?" ... he asked, but his voice is plainly cold ...
"I'm oo-okay" ... I uttered with little bit shakey ...
He look at me and just smiled ... I can't control my emotion, I want to cry, I want to hug him, I want to ask why he leaves me nang ganun lang kadali? ... But, I try to calm myself and ask him either ...
"U-uhmmm, i-ikaww ?? How are you ?, And why are you here?", I'm shy when I ask him, because I'm a little bit embarrassed ...
"Well, I'm fine" .. . He answered confidently ...
"Ohhh, it's good" ... I replied while smiling at him ...
"And I'm just waiting for something" ... he replied ...
My smiled turned into gaze ... And I know who he's waiting for, of course he's new girlfriend... I still haven't met the girl, maybe it's time for me to see her ... And I'll make sure na sasabunutan ko talaga siya!!...
When his phone suddenly rang ..
*Ring ...*ring ...*ring ...
He answered it, with sweetness in his voice ...
"I'm here in the park, where are you ?,
"I will wait you here ".... And he hang up the phone ...
He look at me with sadness in his face and he look down to my neck ... The necklace that he gave to me captured his attention ..
"Why are you still wearing it?" .... he asked while pointing my necklace ...
Natameme ako, at medjo di ko alam kung ano ang sasabihin ... But, I try to answer him ... Nang biglang may tumawag sa pangalan niya ...
"Cristian , I'm here "... said by a beautiful, tall, white girl who is very rich ...
For sure, she is the reason why my love left me ... Get ready for me ghourrll !! ..
I felt like my anger was burning when Cristian approached him and kissed him ... Right in front of me !!!... The harshness of the two of them gets me annoyed!!! ...
Instead of facing the woman, I just stood up and turned around ... I was about to leave, but someone held my arm, causing me to turn into and.. ...
It was Cristian again, He hugged me tightly even though her gf was still looking at us and said...
"I wanna say Thank You ... Thank you for giving me the opportunity to love you, For making me part of your life, thank you for the days that you spent for me, and the time that you reserved everyday ...
I'm sorry for all the days I've hurt you, For all the times I was not enough for you ... Forget me Mae, para di ka na masaktan pa ... Don't worry, your still my moon ... I left you, because I got her pregnant ... And I'm sorry for not telling that thing to you ... Always be careful my precious moon ... I will always love you ... " -he whispered to me and I could feel the heat of his breath ... He let go of hugging me ... And turned around, walking away ...
All I can do is to stare his distance what while he was walking away from me, it was dripping down my tears ... And suddenly, he just disappeared from my sight ..
I sat on the bench where I answered him and where he also left me ... I poured out all my resentment ... I cried and cried ... I didn't even say my side ... I'm a very stupid girl ... And yes, I blame myself fornwhat happened becuse I didn't tell what I felt for him..
"How can I move on? When you're the reason why I'm crying late at night ... Reminds me all your promises that end up in a single "sorry" ... When you gave me so much to remember, even getting you out of my mind will never be easier ... When every moment in a day, it's you that I miss, when I'm still hoping to bring back our best memories ...
..
If you only knew how much pain you feel when the person you loves leaves you...
..
I know that all of us will feel this ... But is it really needed to be this much? ... Everytime I remember all the good times we had, I smiled and I cried ... Maybe I deserve someone else, but I always wanted you ...
I always choose you, always ......
-"You can't do anything but let him go and just accept the fact that you can't really be in the end"

Please continue reading to know the full story.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hi Chester, how are you?", Jane chatted me .
My face filled with happiness and excitement . My smile is almost within my ears . I don't know what to do because I thought that she's already forgotten me . It's been 8 days that she didn't made a call or text for me . It's just sad because, she didn't even chat with me for the past 8 days for not knowing the reason . So, I immediately reply to her . "Hello, I'm not okay, I really miss you Jane ". I sent it while I was frowning .
"I miss you too Chester, can I go to your house?" .she asked .
My sadness turned into amazement . I was really shocked, when she asked . I almost jumped for joy, I almost even threw away my phone .
Aren't you going to be thrilled, because I'm fragile even though I'm a man . So, I didn't think twice. I immediately replied to her, "Sure Jane, I'll tell to mama and papa so they can cook something to eat later, and what time are you coming here ??" . I sent, habang kenekelegggg . Hahaha .
"About 6 PM Chester, I'll be there later, just fixing myself", she replied .
After I read this, I put my phone aside first . I haven't replied her yet . I'm so excited to see her again . I ran out to the bedroom at the same time I told mama and papa that Jane was coming here . So there, they were also shocked . hehehe
So they hurriedly left in our house and buy something to cook later . While I was also hurriedly fixing and cleaning the house .
When my sister suddenly spoke. "Huwwaawww, it looks like the house is very clean Chester ah, what's up ?, Aba-aba will your girlfriend visit you again noh ?, Yiieeeee, " ,she said with a feeling of excitement also.
I Nodded I was just trying to stop myself from laughing . I went out of the house and waited for her.
Soon she also came, carrying flowers, and cake .
Nothing has changed, my girlfriend is still very beautiful, I look like I'm embarrassed in her white dress as she approaches me, it's like we're getting married . Yieeeeee . I'm so harsh nemen . Hehehe .
"Hi Chester, this is for you" ,she uttered while handing me the flowers and cake she brought.
I feel like I'm going to cry with joy and shame .lol.
So, I hug her immediately and she hugs me too . I miss her so much .
"Thank you for this Jane, and for this flower and cake ? Is there anything to celebrate this day Jane?" , I asked in astonishment as I removed my hand from her embrace .
Because, as far as I know, this day is not our monthsary, it's not my birthday and it's not her birthday either . Hmmmm .
"Chester, accept that as my gift for you, because I've been gone for a few days and I didn't said the reason to you" . She said while watching my eyes .
So, I smiled at her and grab her hands. And we entered the house .
My sisters greeted her . I'm so lucky to have them because they're always support me in all decisions that I've made in my life . They accepted Jane and treated her like a sister. When mama and papa suddenly came, carrying the bags they had bought in the market.
"Good Evening, Tita, Tito", Jane greeted them at once .
"Oh, my daughter in-law, you're still really beautiful", mama said to her . Meanwhile, papa hugged her .
So I started to cry, they were so nice to look at them.
Jane was just like their child also . It's so good to see them. That feeling that they love Jane as much as they love me .
Mama and papa have already cooked our dinner, while my sisters and Jane and I are singing in the living room. That's what we always do when Jane is here at home . We were very noisy here before .
When everyone suddenly smiled when Jane played the guitar . I almost felt thrilled and happy while watching my girlfriend singing a blackpink song while playing guitar. She always supports Blackpink. Full of Happiness overflows in my heart , I don't even know how I feel while looking at her.
After that, mama and papa called us to eat dinner . Jane sat besides me, and we were both happy talking to each other while my family teasing us . "Hehehe" . We're both chuckled.
After a while....
She also informed my family that she need to left. And say "Thank you, I will miss you all" .
So, I took her outside . My heart, ached when she suddenly stood in front of me while holding my hands and said these phrases .
"Chester, please take care of yourself. I'll be gone again for a long time, so train yourself that I'm no longer with you. Maybe it's time for you to accept the fact that I can't be the one for you. Sorry for being a failure. Atleast we met, and I'm so lucky to have you in my life . The future we once planned together, those were I will forever treasure . Sorry if I can't fulfill my promise anymore. I love you until we meet again ".
She said as her eyes met mine, and our lips slowly touches each other while our hearts seems creating a sweet symphonic lullaby in every single beat of it . The cold wind caresses our skin, giving us chill feeling .
Those words stabbed me to death, those words literally cut me deeper than a knife . I don't understand what she meant to me . But my tears started falling down to my cheeks while hugging her tightly .
And suddenly everything went all black ...
I woke up, with full of tears and sadness in my face . I dreamed of her again. This is her 9th night of prayer for her burial . She died last May 6 this year because of her diabetic condition.
But, she's not getting out in my mind . Suddenly, I slapped myself. It was hard, rough and painful, but I guess I'm already numb physically because there's nothing more painful than the pain that I am feeling right now . I covered my face using my palm . And I cried so hard . That made me confused .. I stepped unto her coffin were she laid .
"The world is against us, Jane . I need to accept the fact that there's no you that will understand my shitty, childish attitude when I'm mad . No one will kiss my forehead, hold my hand surprisingly, pinch my nose, squeeze my cheeks and tells a lot of story to me . But your always here in my heart Jane, I will pray for your soul everyday . I love you, I will always love you "... I whispered when cold wind hugged me, and I know that was her presence ....
"Cherish everytime, every moment that we are still with our loved ones because we don't know when they will disappear"

"My Friends I Met In Online Class and How We Scattered"
Have you ever experience the feeling that you are alone always when having a new section?
That feeling that you are so afraid to socialize with others? With your new classmates .
Well, that's my feeling before.
When the online class is approaching, I'm so scared to be left behind with others. Since, they are so rich, beautiful and so on. While me? I'm just a little simple girl.
When our class started, I was always left behind. Because, I can't reach their standards and I've always seen in our GC's because I'm too shy enough to reply.
When the weeks was passed by, I had three classmates that make friends with me, until we become eight. We create our own GC and help each other in our all tasks and performances. When one has a problem, we all immediately help and support each other as one family. That's my true friends.
Im so happy that time because I'm talking to someone that accept me whole-heartedly, I'm not alone anymore, I'm not left behind with my classmates and I have someone to share with my own problems.
We decided that we would try to save money so we could meet each other and eat outside...
So, after our first exam of the mid-term, finally, we met each other and we are so happy and our face was full of excitement anf enjoyment.
We toured the mall, we ate, took selfies, tiktok and bought things we wanted to buy..
My classmates are super cute, beautiful and handsome. Im so Bless in having them in my life.
When the final exam of the mid-term was approaching, still our friendship are strong and still we help each other to survive this semester.
Not, until our adviser said that our section will be dissolved because, we are few entering in our online class session. We will divide into two and put into two sections of HUMSS.
We were super sad that time, the others were crying because our friendship reach so far and we will just scattered. Hayssttt ..I'm so sad that time. All I can do is to pray, that it will not be able to continue the dissolvation of our section..
But.....Suddenly...
In the Second Semester, we we're scattered in another sections. Me and my one bestfriend we're together in our new section. While others are into another section.
But, I'm not happy with my new section and my new classmates. They are so unmannered students. I didn't talk to anyone there in my new section because they are super rich and their standards and atittudes are so toxic. Of course, we were new there, so I didn't talk too much or recite in class discussion.
I feel lazy to enter in our class.
Also, I didn't talk to my bestfriend before since he is so competetive in acads. I don't like his atittude. He don't even help me when the times I'm so down in our new section.
After, 2 weeks of having a new section. Our GC is so quite. Like, my life started to miss all our happy moments we were together, talking each other and Video Chat each other. In jut one decision. Our friendship seems broken. I don't know, but we only talked once. Haystt .
My first month of second semester is full of sadness.....
I become alone again.... :(
But, there's a girl that I admired before in my past section. Who make friends with me. And, I'm so happy that time.. She's so pure and beautiful. How I wish I can share her picture here. But, I can't do it for her privacy.
We are always there to lift up each other, giving advices, caring each other, helping each other and yeah.. I can feel the completness and happiness when I'm with her even we just met online.
Sometimes, she is emotionally and physically unstabled due to academic breakdown and family problems. But, I'm always there to lift her up and help her in her academics. I always treasure her, because she is the only one left in my side as a truly friend..
Until now.. We are so open and close... Our Journey in Second Semester is not that easy but, since our support to each other are full. We ended up having an award of With Honors..
I'm so happy that I found a pure friend that will never leave me...
---If you have friends that accept you whole-heartedly, give their trust to you and treat you as part of the family.. Please cherish them.. Because, not all people are so pure enough to give their trust to others..."
Btw, I created a song for my friends before and my bestfriend now.
You know that I have a friends always be there,
To wake up every morning and get out in bed
You know that I loved them as part of my life
We knew each other through online class
If we feel'n so tired but still going on
ohhh,oohhh
I hope our friendship will always be strong
ohhh,oohhh
Chorus:
Coz I'm always be grateful that I met you
Your always be there for me
I wish I will meet you all in reality
I wish our friendship will last until we get older
But, everything change ,
We don't talk too much
I'm so sad this past few days
Thinking of you, the old days with you
How happy we are together
But everything will turn into memory.
I'm so alone, and
I don't even think if I can overcome it.
I miss you. I wish I can turn back the clock.
Please take care yourself.
Hoping that day that we will turn back our friendship together.
I miss you. I miss you my bestfriends.
That's it.. Hehehe. I don't think so if I narrate it well. But, I hope you like it. It's all about friendship..
Thank you for reading!

"My Academic Breakdown During Online Class"
Now, that the world bring us negativity, we always find ways to continue our Educational System in our country. As a student, we have different knowledge, strategies, skills, obligations, mindset and so on. Because, we are unique individuals. This article is all about my academic breakdown during online classes.
Before, I feel so excited to learn inside our house. I will not go to school anymore and we can save money on the tricycle fare, since we will only study at home.
I told to myself that I can do it, and I will really do it for my dreams in life. As a youth, who came from a poor family. I strive hard to lift up my family out of being poorness, especially to help my parents to give us proper Education, because we are Seven siblings.
Our life became even more difficult when we had experienced Covid-19 Pandemic. There were lockdowns, ECQ, GCQ and so on. The most worst at that time are to find work, foods and money to sustain our daily living. It's really tearful that time. Life is so hard and we need to find ways to survive in this crisis.
As the class approaching, the headaches and problems increased because we didn't have wifi and we didn't have enough supplies of gadgets for our online classes. We choose the online class because we could better understand and cope up easily with the teacher's teaching process. If it is modular, we will be the only one to pay attention or self-study to everything written in the whole module. And as what I said before, not all students are quit smart and can cope up easily in just one read.
So, why I undergo Academic Breakdown during online classes?
First, is the internet connection. We have unstable connection since we only used piso wifi before. Not, until my parents bought us Globe Prepaid Wifi. But, still the connection is poor. After the first sem, my parents find ways to borrow money to her friends in order to connect us in the tower. That's why we have stable wifi today because we use PLDT. But, sometimes still the signal is unstable.
Second, is being pressured to the deadlines of the paperworks, videos, performance tasks and so on. 2 weeks is not enough to comply all the requirements that the teachers gave to us. I'm so tired enough in doing heavy tasks. Think about it, everyday in each subject has 5 paperworks and two videos to do. And they give us only 2 weeks to comply all of that. Each day, tasks are becoming heavy. Super tearful that time.
Also, research is one subject that made me depressed that time because, my teammates have no contribution to our paper. I just help everyone to do all in our paper, including defense, I am the only one who finished our research until the end. All, that I hold is hope. Hope, to finish this all. One time, I actually cried at them, even it's so embarrassing. I can't really contain my resentments towards them anymore. Since, we're all just beginners and we don't know each other yet because of the new section. I'm just crying because I'm trying to fight even though I'm really tired physically and mentally. And, I undergo anxiety and sickness.
Third, my classmates atittudes. I don't have friends in my new section. They are so feeler and pabibo. I don't like their attitudes and how they treat our teachers. They don't have manners literally. That's why, I always do alone without anyone talking or asking what to do in the activity if I don't usually get it. I do it alone and I understand it critically. I don't want to owe something in my classmates.
Fourth, lack of sleeps due to heavy requirements. I usually sleep around 3am in the morning to finish 3 tasks.. And get up around 6am to prepare for my class. Sometimes, I faced in the camera without fixing myself. I always eat my meals pass on its right time due to conflict class sechedules and meetings.
One time, I usually said to myself that... "I want to give up!! , I'm so tired enough!! Kaya ko pa bah? ..O kinakaya ko lang?
Online class is so hard, even modular. Sometimes, teachers did not considers our sides that their given tasks to us are so heavy. They keep on saying that "Why? Others can do it. Why you can't?" ...Are they insane!!! Lol.. Not all students are the same, not all student had the capabilities to do the tasks and not all student are so smart!!!!! What kind of mindset is that!
Are we students, are the only one that will gonna adjust in this new learning Platform? How come they don't want to consider our point? !!
Studying at the University is so hard. But, what else can we do? Striving hard even sometimes we want to give up, even we are so tired enough mentally, emotionally and physically. Also, the school tuition is so heavy to paid off. Haysstt...
But, even I undergo academic breakdown that time. I learned that, even in the hardest time of my life. My parents and my family are always there to help me, lift me up, my crying shoulder and God who will help us to overcome our problems in life.
God will always elighten our mind and inner self and in our darkness times. Because, with God nothing is impossible.
My journey in this new platform is not that easy. Every step of the way I always face trials and criticization from other people, but it doesn't stop me to pursue my dreams, rather it made me stronger. And I'm proud to say that I made this far.
And now, I am already a grade 12 student in this S.Y: 2021-2022 . More way to go. Laban lang para sa pangarap sa buhay. And, I realized that, as long that we push or pressure our selves to something that we know we can't really do it... We can't learn something because we need to follow our progress . It's the learning that count.
Thank you for reading this. I hope you like it and I hope, I construct it meaningfully and properly. God Bless! Kudos to all Students!!

"My Appendicitis Journey"
Hi! I just wanted to share this to you. One of my deepest problem I encountered in my life last 2019. When I was in a 10th Grade. I've been undergo operation in my appendix. I didn't know what are the things that I should do that time seeing my parents worrying about me. I blame myself for everything that happened, because of that I gave my parents another problem. I was crying in tears. Many procedures were done on me before I had surgery. Many injections I experienced. I'm so afraid of the operation to be performed. Before my operation, all I did is to pray that the operation would be successful.
So, why did I end up with appendicitis? - Btw, the picture of my operation is at the end of this article :)
As far as I remember, It's Sunday that time in the month of October, year 2019. We went to Passion Hill with my Churchmates (Churchmate). It's super cold there and it's a very peaceful place. We came from practice because we as a youth had a performance. We ate FASHION FRUIT there.
But, Can I ask you? Do you know Fashion Fruit?
Maybe you know that since we are in the Philippines. Fashion Fruit is a very sweet fruit and we ate its seeds. It's super delicious and I've been eaten a lot of it. Maybe, I don't know, I can't count it already . I'm also not aware that the seeds can be stocked in our appendix.
--Are you a Fashion Fruit lover also?-- Well.....
But, before that. Guys, Please avoid eating foods or fruits that we can swallow the seeds of it. Such as watermelon and fashion fruit. It may be stocked in our Appendix. I just wanted to Spread awareness For the goodness of our health.
Continue....
--- After that day, I go to school because it's already Monday. When I stepped out in the tricycle, I can't walk anymore because I feel pain in the lower right part of my stomach. But, I thought it is just only a natural pain. So, I kept on walking until I reached in my room. But, afterwards . I cannot deal with it aymore. I asked permission from my teacher and my male classmates helped me to go to the clinic .
Of course, I was scared and nervous that time . Then, the nurse asked me many more questions while I was crying. He moved my foot but I couldn't really move anymore. It's super painful. So, They contacted my parents and took me to the hospital.
During my Operation ...
They inject me Three times in the back, then one for each both arms . Then, I just woke up and I couldn't move my legs anymore. 1 week I was not allowed to eat even if to drink water. Every roaming of the nurse, she injeced me three times of -pronged medicines in the dextrose. I always lose consciousness from the needle, because the medicine is super courageous and painful. She said that the medicines that they put in my injections are my food since, I cannot eat foods and drink water.
Btw, this is the picture of my operation:
During that time, it serves me a lesson that we should always give importance to our health especially on the foods that we eat everyday.
That's all.... Thank you for reading .. I just really want to share this to all of you, so you can avoid eating or swallowing seeds to avoid appendicitis. God Bless.

My interpretation about this: “Life must be understood backward but it must be lived forward” , means that our past experiences should be our guide as we live our lives wonderfully and fruitfully. As we go through our journey we need to think all the past experiences that we encounter so that it can help us to stand or rechange our past . Life must be go on ,whatever how hard the life is, we must continue what we want to be success in the near future. You can't connect dots looking forward ;You can connect them looking background. So you have to trust that the dots which is your past will somehow connect in your future. We must to trust in something like in our destiny, life, karma and whatever our beliefs in life. Cause believing that dots will connect down the road and will give us confident to follow our hearts even when it lead us on the well worn path and that makes us difference. We need to regularly remind ourselves to learn from the past without being overwhelmed by it.
“Life must be understood backward but it must be lived forward”. – S. Kierkegaard
My Journey during COVID-19 : My Experiences
Hi! I'm Whitney :>. I just wanted to share my experiences during Covid-19 Pandemic.
But before that...
Can I ask you? What are your feelings during this times? What are the main struggles that you had encounter? Did you feel well? What kind of person are you when this problem happened? What are your feelings and mindset? What are your role and your everyday routine? What are the places that you missed to visit? And how can you help to your community as an individual? Please share it to me. Just comment and I'm gladly to read yoyr experiences.
Well, we all know that, COVID-19 Pandemic or Corona Virus affects us totally. It is a kind of virus that we didn't expect. It infect people that caused them to illnesses and it can lead to death. We are so afraid of this kind of virus.
Here are the main causes of Covid-19:
Coronavirus is caused by a VIRUS and NOT by BACTERIA. Because, many people thought that this was caused by a bacteria. Anyway, one of the family of viruses called Coronaviridae was the caused of Covid-19. Antibiotics do not work against viruses.So, many people who become ill can also develop a bacterial infection. In this case, antibiotics may be recommended to use by a health care provider.
Effects of it:
It can lead to death, cough, tiredness, diziness, mental health affection and decreased of our economy, increasing poverty and lack of resources and foods.
What should we do?
We need to follow the health protocols that the government released. Like, proper hygiene, wear face mask, face shield, social distancing, avoid attending or gathering occassions that can easily contact to each other.
But, le'mme share this to you. About my experiences and thoughts when this Pandemic started.
Last 2019, this kind of virus was started. Before, I'm not afraid of it! Just because, I thought it will never appear in our country which is Philippines. But, suddenly, when we heared a lot of news that our country belonged to the affected list countries and it has a several cases last year 2020. My mind and my feelings are started to panic. But, I try to calm myself. This time, we are practicing our graduation because, we are in Grade 10. And our day had come. We are so excited. But, we didn't expect that one of that days in that week. We will never go back in our school and we will never see each other. The graduation has cancelled, the JS PROM also cancelled. And all of us can see the gaze in our face. We don't know our emotions that time. Like, we are sad actually. Totally sad and regretful.
Starting March 2020 - July 2020, We experienced ECQ, GCQ, Home Quarantine and Stay at Home. I know that, our whole life in this month are so horrible. Like, our routine is always the same. Sleep, eat, watch TV, K-drama and so on. Until we discover the app that saves us into the darkness. Which is TIKTOK. Many people entertained this app, it gives us fun, show our talents, creating our own contents that inspire other people. It is a great platform to enhance our talents like dancing, singing and so on. As we can see, despite this Pandemic that we had facing right now. We are still happy and must go with the flow in the life we had.
But, as what I can see. This Pandemic brings also positivity. Because, the family are bind together and they had a lot of time to bond and talk to each other. It makes the relationship of the family stronger. In our community, the pollution and garbage are lessen. It helps our mother Earth to rest against human negtive actions. Also, it gives us lessons in life that we should always take good care of ourselves by eating healthy foods and proper exercises. Although, This Pandemic brings us negativity but, we can also see its positive side. The thing that I can say is that we should always pray to God and make our faith strengthen to Him. Because ,I know someday our prayers will answered soon. There is no possible to God. As long, we are doing good and spread His good news.Everything will turn into peace and we can live the life we deserve. Just go with the flow and continue our Journey in life. Pray. Pray. Pray. Let us unite each other and help as one FAMILY!! GOD BLESS! I hope you like my article. Spread Love and positivity. Please share your thoughts and experiences during Covid-19 at the comment section. THANK YOU!
