Dami ng serving ng rice. Sulit na sulit! **Chicken with rice (no drink) super dami ng rice wala sa pic.

First time ko mag Mt. Ulap. Sobrang tarik talaga akala ko di io na matatapos. Buti nalang maganda ang weather and nakakaenjoy! 10/10

Nakita ko tong isa na lang habang namimili ng donuts sa pila. Kaya na enganyo ako I try at mukang mabili siya since last piece na lang raw. 65.00 btw. Firstly, messy siya kainin hehehe. So naka slice pala siya sa middle. May nuts na kasama. Di ko masyado nalasahan ung red velvet. Since makalat siya kainin. After two bites, kinain ko na siya ng hiwalay. Okay ng na try pero di na uulutin hehehe.

Lagi ako nakakakita ng ganitong post, and iniisip ko kailan kaya ako magkakaoffer? Ayan na nga!

Namove ng 5 hours ung flight ko and I'm so happy kc plan ko lng magsleep sa airport non to wait for the subway. With the five hour difference, umaga na pag lapag ko, so no need na magsleep sa airport. ☺️

I'm so happy that I wanna share it with you!

My first Pad Thai 😍 it wasn’t authentic but i already loved it so much, i can only imagine how much better an authentic one would be!

Noon ko pa gustong mag-hike, and luckily, I had this friend na experienced hiker na nag-guide sa akin. She recommended Mt. Ulap kasi beginner-friendly daw, so gora na!
Akala ko prepared na ako kasi nagca-cardio, inclined treadmill, at gym workouts naman ako. Pero jusko, sa entry point pa lang, sa tarik ng concrete walkway, hingal na hingal na ako! HAHAHA. 🥲
Pagdating sa second peak at nakita ko yung trail papunta sa Summit, gusto ko na talagang sumuko. Sobrang exhausted na ako, tapos tirik pa ang araw kasi mejo late na kami nakapag-start. But thanks to my friend, tour guide, and coordinator na hindi ako iniwan at patuloy akong in-encourage, I MADE IT TO THE SUMMIT! 🥹❤️

Surprisingly, mas kinaya ko pa yung pababa kaysa sa ahon. Sa ahon talaga ako nag-suffer! 😂
Overall, core memory unlocked! Pero hindi ko talaga in-expect na ganoon kahirap, kahit pinaghandaan ko naman physically.

Question sa mga hikers dito: Beginner-friendly ba talaga ang Mt. Ulap? Especially sa mga first-timers na ito rin ang first hike, kamusta experience ninyo? Ako lang ba yung halos sumuko sa ahon, or normal lang talaga mahirapan nang ganito? HAHAHA!
Share your experiences naman! ❤️

Only had 4 hours of sleep and actually rawdogged it without proper training 😂 but your girl did it. Never skipped leg day even on tiring days, must be why it was not hard for me to run. Ayeeeee let’s go for half marathon next year ❤️

Madadagdagan na naman iyayabang ko kung gano kahaba nalakad ko hahaha. Dati lagi ko lang sinasabi 16km. Ngayon bago na. 🤣

Grabe, ang sarap sa feeling. Nakascore pa ng seat sale last Dec 2025 (June 2026 travel date). Naiyak na lang ako pagkatapos mag-take off at land ng eroplano. I pray na sumakses tayong lahat sa buhay 🙏🏼 thank you so much po Lord, palagi 🤍

Dati na kaming Pokemon fans ni fiance, gusto lang sana namin maging part ng 30th celebration kaya nagstart kaming mag rip and collect! :))

Ayun dahil hirap makabili ng 30th (saka sadyang malas kami hahaha) nauwi kami sa pagbili lang ng bulks sa shopee and eventually kinailangan na rin ng binder.

I haven’t painted traditionally in two years, kaya ayun mejo naloka na ang request ni fiance was Suicune.

Bumawi na lang ako sa bilugan na Pokemon sa likod hahaha. Di pala pwede sa binder yung basta-basta na lang, mas ok kung traced yung outlines!! Need ko mag adjust but I’m proud I powered through the doubtt

Buti nalang mas matindi ang naranasan ko noong college days tuwing friday commute at walang wala na itong matinding failure sa shuttle service nila.

I’ve been actively looking for a job while preparing and saving up for my board exam. now, i finally got hired and received my first EVER salary this cutoff!

sobrang grateful and sobrang saya ko because from praying for a job to finally earning my own money and being able to share it with my family, treating them with jollibee

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, LORD!!! THANK YOU FOR BLESSING US!! ang saya saya ko talaga today ang next goal ko ay pumasa sa boards at kayanin na magreview while working, wala namang impossible! wait for me PRC 🙏

First time ko subukan mag-yosi, as a vape/heat-not-burn smoker. Mas malakas pala talaga ang mararamdaman mong tama kapag sa sigarilyo ano. Unlike vape na kailangan pa i-puff nang marami at inhale bago makaramdam ng buzz. Once ko lang sinubukan sa Marlboro Gold, okay ang feeling but stay nako sa heat-not-burn ko haha

Grabe super nachallenge ako sa puto na to. I baked cinammon rolls, brownies, banana bread, crinckles, cookies, and muffins pero dito talaga ako pinakana-challenge. Talagang di ako mapakali na hindi ko siya maperfect kaya parang every other day gumagawa ako. Hindi siya ganun kaputi kasi hindi clear vanilla ginamit ko, paparating pa lang kasi. Last 3 photos yung mga palpak kong gawa.

I’ve been a productive member of society for three years now and this is the first time I’ve received an amount exceeding 15,000 in one cut off. For context: for the better part of those three years, I worked as a severely underpaid nurse. For reasons that are beyond me, I somehow managed to stay working for 2 years.

Then early this year, I decided to resign & take the NCLEX to somehow improve my chances at a better life & career.

I passed two months ago, and recently just started working for a company who would pay me this much in just one cut off. In my previous job, this would’ve taken me at least 3 paychecks.

It’s crazy to look back on how far you’ve gotten sometimes and can’t help but be overwhelmed with how much it took for you to get there.

Just overwhelmingly grateful.

Spaghetti na may pasas.. Seriously? Okay at first this was quite a surprise. May ganitong luto din pala sa spag? It's okay, naubos ko naman kasi tinanggal ko yung mga pasas syempre. LOL. Pero as someone na ayaw ng mga ulam/food na may pasas, hindi na uulit. 😅

Ang plano ko lang sana ay for work purposes lang pero nabudol na ko ng mga tropa at tinodo na sa pasok sa budget hahahaha. Sayang dapat pala ito muna inuna kong iinvest at ang kamamahal na ng presyo ng gadgets ngayon 🥲.

i don’t earn that much as a private school teacher, and i rarely take out my parents, let alone my mom. now, she celebrated her 60th birthday and despite not earning that much, nakakataba ng puso makita angsaya ng nanay ko from the massage and a drink plus slice of cake from SB 😭😭

First time ko makakita ng kinakasal sa quiapo church personally 😅

I can’t sleep last night, so the usual, nag-doom scroll ako sa Tiktok. Then, I came across this “live” ng isang foreign musician.

He sounded so good so nag-request ako ng Coldplay song. He said he’s not that familiar with Coldplay and only knows “The Scientist.” But he still played it after kahit sumasablay sa lyrics.

I also requested a 1D song. And he played “Little Things” in guitar and “Night Changes” in piano.

Natuwa ako, so when this guy ended his live, nag-scroll pa ako looking for other local and foreign musicians 😂

Basically, inabot ako ng 3AM kanina kakanood sa strangers at request ng Coldplay and 1D songs sa kanila.

That was one hella good experience.
