Anyone celebrating this doesn’t understand the whole picture. Even if mataas purchasing power mo because you earn in USD, lahat ng bagay na andito sa Pilipinas tumaas din ung cost kasi net importing country tayo. Sa oil pa lang talo na. Even though I don’t agree with the original poster’s sentiment, let’s not mock other people who are just trying to earn money. We can correct without belittling other people naman.

Satin din talaga magsisimula ung improvement. While we should never stop calling out those in the position of power, we should also do our part sa little things. Hindi uunlad ung bansa kung sa mga maliliit na bagay pa lang di na tayo maayos.

Asan kaya tayo if we never let our fears stop us from doing what we want to do?

Let’s not waste this chance to try again. Got this quote from Our Unwritten Seoul. In the KDrama, the main character became a shut-in due to an event that ended her dreams. This quote is what she used to encourage herself to keep trying despite all the challenges. May we all find the courage to step out of our figurative doors every day.

There's a time and place for everything. Sa airplane, karamihan ng tao gusto magpahinga and dapat nirerespeto un. For me, same lang din ung ginawa niya sa mga taong nanonood ng videos sa phone na nakatodo ung volume habang nasa public transpo. Iba ung madidinig mo, pero pareho lang walang consideration sa mga nakapaligid. Kahit anong religion pa ung ipreach niya dito, wala namang assurance na lahat ng other passengers same ng religion. And kahit na same, hindi naman lahat gustong makinig sa time na yan.

📌Day 3 of sharing 5 Japanese words and phrases: hai (はい) - yes iie (いいえ)- no kudasai (ください or 下さい) - please (casual) onegaishimasu (お願いします) - more formal, but also generally more used for requesting for favors or services sumimasen (すみません) - excuse me/I'm sorry Kudasai vs Onegaishimasu examples: Kudasai: Mizu o kudasai - Water, please. Onegaishimasu: Tokyo eki made onegaishimasu - Tokyo station, please. (in a taxi)

The world is already harsh enough. Let’s not add to that. Kindness is free

Wala akong tipid hacks talaga, but I try to avoid impulsive buying by doing the following: - Huwag mag-grocery pag gutom. Kahit online pa ung pag-grocery mo, kumain ka muna before you scroll para di ka mag-add ng cravings sa cart mo. - 1 month rule (pwede mo ireplace ung 1 month with your preferred duration) - Whenever I think I want to buy something, I give myself a month before actually purchasing it. If I still want it after one month, I’ll buy it para sure akong gustong gusto ko talaga ung bibilhin ko. Else, nalimutan ko na siya even before the month ends. - Kurot principle - I only buy something if I can immediately buy 2 of it. This means that whatever I buy will not put a huge dent sa savings ko.

Good reminder especially for those who are their own worst critics. Breathe. You are doing okay!

Happy Wednesday! A meaningful life is one that fulfills your why. Kung ano ung important sayo, un dapat ung guide mo kung ano ung need mong path na tahakin. Your success should be by your definition and not by the society.

Accountability. Hindi pwedeng pag maganda result, magaling ka tapos pag hindi, kasalanan ng iba. Need din natin ng self-awareness na baka kaya tayo nasstuck sa bad situations ay dahil may mga things din na need natin iaddress.

Sharing because we all need a bit of positivity sa panahon ngaun. Good morning everyone!

Masakit ung gantong thought no? When we have thoughts that make us question our own value, we have to question it. Nararamdaman mo ba yan because your partner is actually showing na mukhang for convenience ka lang? If that’s the case, evaluate your relationship. If you’re feeling it kahit di naman ganun ung partner mo, maybe there is an insecurity in you that needs to be healed. When you get to address that, malelessen ung pag overthink mo sa mga bagay and you’ll be happier. At the end of the day, we all just wanna be happy.

From what I've noticed, mostly seniors ung naaadik sa AI generated vertical dramas. That's bad kasi andun sila sa point ng life nila na slowly nagdedeteriorate na ung memories and attention tapos naexpose pa sa something that encourages brain rot. The thing about short content is it is really addictive. Dahil mabilis lang siya, instant ung dopamine hits pero di naman ganun nagwowork ung brain. The brain needs to establish connections para magkaroon ng memories. So sira attention span and memory. Pag lagi kang babad sa anything short form, para kang laging high pero walang actual reward. E ganun ung mga AI drama. Hindi lang din ung consumers ung kawawa, kawawa din ung mga nasa field ng entertainment. Unti unti na silang nirereplace kasi may tumatangkilik nung AI generated e.

Happy anniversary! The world needs to see more happy love stories. 🥰
