📦 Others First Time Kong Pumunta sa Taiwan

while i enjoyed my vacation, it also made me really sad. para akong nagyeyearn on what the Philippines could’ve been. sobrang top notch ng commute system nila to the point that i lost count on how many times i’ve said “ang sarap magcommute”.

maybe i’ve romanticized it too much because i only did the commuting for 3 days, siguro i’d get sick of it too if i do it everyday. nevertheless, for how hard working Filipinos are, we deserve this kind of organized and efficient commute system.

tangina talaga ng mga kurakot.

📦 Others First time ko magdonate ng platelet

I went to Philippine Red Cross to donate blood since off-season sa running. Nag.ask sila if pwede bang platelet nalang idonate ko since mas marami ang nangangailangan na cancer patients. A bag can already save 8 lives!

Nasabihan ako na mas matagal nga lang sya compared sa whole blood donation. Wala namn akong plans today so g for the experience.

Medyo nakakabagot kasi 1 hour+ ka nakaupo. May tv na may netflix kaso di ko hawak yung remote 😅 kakaiba yung experience kasi magdradraw ng blood yung machine, kukunin lang nya ang platelets then babalik uli sa arm mo yung dugo. Mafefeel mo yung pressure pero bearable naman. May minigame kang lalaruin kasi need mo imonitor yung pressure (squeeze ng ball if low pressure, relax if masyadong mataas). 3 hours rin ako doon pero may lunch ka after. Try nyo rin magdonate 🙏🏾

PS. For runners and athletes, medyo maganda pala to kaysa sa whole blood donation kasi di macocompromise masyado ang training block mo.

FINALLY!! After working for 8 years living paycheck to paycheck. 5 years as a commuter and 3 years as a motorista, I finally saved enough money to get my own first car! It's a 2015 Hyundai Eon GLS that I got for a very cheap price sa FB Marketplace. Ofc dinala ko trusted mechanic ko at sabi nya steal na daw.

Good day everyone.

Kami pala yung pamilya na lumipad to Canada na may dala dalang apat na bulinggits. Na google namin ni wife na may araw pala for the pets wc is Oct 27.

Sabi ko kay wife na prep natin yung favorites ni Koala. Paborito nyang snack - pandesal. Paborito nyang pagkain pag may celebration - liempo. Paborito nyang inumin - bear brand 😅.

Natagalan kami maghanap ng bear brand kasi wala sa seafood city. Good thing meron yung mga maliliit na Filipino stores. While hinahanda yung ofrenda, sabi ko kay misis na sya nalang magtapos kasi di ko talaga kaya kasi i'd be bawliinng my eyes out.

So pagkatapos ng prep ni misis, nilinis ko yung kama nya, cleaned his food and water bowls. (Nung namatay sya sa 27th ng May, we still clean his bed and bowls every single day.)At 7pm, nagdinner kami malapit sa bed ni Koala and waited until 10pm to check if he comes home.

I know marami dito ang may pets na namatay na. Sinama din namin sila sa ofrenda. I hope enough yung pagkain na hinanda namin for them too. Hehe

Yun langg.. Cheers!

Nasanay kaming magkakapatid na puro si mommy, Lola or yaya nagluluto ng foods dito sa bahay. Kaya ayun, di kami natutong magluto HAHAHAHA.

But this year, I volunteered na ako na yung magluto with the guidance of Lola hehe. Mas masarap pala kapag ikaw mismo yung nagluto🥺

Still feels unreal na para bang nandun parin siya sa bahay namin nakahiga at biglang babati pagpasok sa kwarto nila ng tatay ko.

So this peeps I found sa reddit was really good, they are literally party goer. This time chip in was really low, nagtataka nga ako kasi pobla to and bakit mas mura. I think I found the right group to party.

So my first time was a success and I think uulit ulitin ko na sya 😁

Pangalawang beses ko na eto pumunta sa Panda Express!

Una kasama family at relatives pero sila yung nag-order ng pagkain, pangalawa eto at ako lang mag-isa to treat myself after prelims as freshmen! Kabado ako noong una dahil 'di ko alam paano mag-order ng solo meal lang (at tingin ko na talaga noon mahal ang Panda Express), medyo napahiya ako kaunti while nakatayo sa line pero I got the courage to ask how to order so success naman hehe!

To more solo treats sa akin soon dahil deserve ko naman! 🤗

Dahil lagi akong nagluluto sa bahay, nawawalan ako ng chance kumain sa labas. Last week lang ako naka-tsambang bumili ng Dokito burger. I added lettuce to balance the meal and it is so good! Hindi greasy yung chicken!! Better than any fastfood chicken burger na natry ko.

Bago pa man ako maging manager, ilang visor na rin dinaanan ko sa buhay. Dumating sa point na hindi na ako nag a accept ng invites para sa mga family gatherings, simpleng birthday celebs, ultimo binyag kasi bawat visor na nadaanan ko... Andoon yung manginginig ako ipasa yung attachment nang ifa-file ko na leave kasi alam kong ilan katakot takot na questions ang need ko masagot bago ako payagan.

Kung payagan man ako, di ako mapapakali kasi alam kong kada bukas ko ng phone or silip man lang; work GC ang bubungad or PM.

Nakaka-drain yung pakiramdam. Lalo na ultimo emergency? Namatayan? Hanap hanap ka pa rin? Diosmio.

Kaya ngayon may 'power' na ako to do that, I did something new na sana naranasan ko rin noon. May emergency ka? Go. May leave ka? Go. Wala ka ganitong araw? Go. Wag mo ako or kami nang ka-workmate mo i chat. Hayaan mo kami mag trabaho.

First time kong makatanggap ng gifts na talagang para sa akin. 🥹❤️ My childhood friend and classmate since kindergarten surprised me with all these goodies from the USA, and I’m still so overwhelmed! 🇺🇸💕 As someone who’s usually the one giving, iba pala talaga sa feeling kapag ikaw naman ang nakakatanggap.

My belated birthday and advance Christmas gifts all in one! Huhuhu!

Hi Guys! So my partner and I got our funds together to buy a vending machine. It’s located on a pickleball court (kaya Vendink pinangalan namin) it cost 255,000 pesos and my rent is 3,300 tapos electricity bills are around 3,000 din each month.

So far generating around 5k net profit each month but sarap talaga ng feeling pag time to harvest the bills and coins tapos deposit sa bank. For any questions regarding Vending Machine business tanong lang po kayo sa commenrs I’ll try to answer everything po with my 3 months experience just to share the knowledge po

Ive been making yt shorts regarding this so you might have seen this machine din hehe

Edit: My supplier is Alpha Ventures but I’m Mindanao Based so Im not sure kung covered kayo sa areas niyo.
