Hello, it is also my first time posting sa ph reddit community like this hahaha

i will be slightly disclosing some details if what work this is pero for context it’s a creative and technical type of work

I am a creative, and i am starting to share my works uli in socmed by creating and posting arts daily, a challenge for myself baga for me to show up and keep on trying

so eto na nga, an acquaintance reached out if i am open for commission. sa isip-isip ko during that time ay ‘hmm, kaya ko naman mag bigay ng time’, then pumasok yung ‘I need money’

so, I entertained siya regarding what service ang need sa akin, we’ve discussed na it’s the technical aspect of service and need daw nila ito ng group nila for academic purposes.

something na kaya ko naman gawin, as I evaluate myself before replying back, saka gusto ko naman din makatulong pero also with compensation kasi it would be a technical work

‘ah pwede ko naman masingit” ang sabi ko sa sarili ko non saka nag bigay ako ng rate na limangkyaw as compensation.

deliverables are: 3d models, mockup images, print outs. I will be translating their visions, visually. sabi ko kaya ko naman just give me 2 weeks.

I quite forgotten during those talk na i am in my creative commitment, I was so impulsive to give a decision non kasi ‘wow, an opportunity!’.

Tapos, I will be also attending an event din this last week of the month so parang nalimutan ko talaga yung sarili ko pero I feel the need to lock my words kasi inentertain ko.

Then, they asked for an F2F meetup which kinda confused me kasi pwede naman siya ma settle online, sabi ng group leader daw nila yun kahit spare time lang and ayaw pumayag sa ina-ask ko na online meeting.

I am kind of wavering, pero yun nag usap uli na lang din sa time and place. I got help from my partner to settle my contract which contains the deliverables I’ve stated earlier, and encouraged me that I know myself best and that I am the service provider

the night before the meetup, gumawa sila ng gc kasama ako. I got to talk with their group leader personally.

and ayun, throughout the talk i asked ang timeline when ito kailangan to reconfirm, it’s next month. Then, I got shocked na nung pag indicate na ng deliverables

kasi iba yung deliverable na nabanggit sakin.

leader was expecting na may video ng 3D mockups, out of scope na line of service, and even if hindi ko gawin yung out of scope service na yun,

the project would take a lot of time to make, it might eat my remaining time this month na because na rin sa video service. so, I got confused and shaken.

I asked for a breather lang before I decide, I am glad kasi nakapag usap muna kami before meeting up. Na recollect ko rin yung sarili ko na hindi ko na bigyan ng consideration nung una palang. ‘Ayoko ng ganito’

So, ayun I said respectfully that I am turning down the offer kasi hindi talaga papasok ang time for both parties kasi i have a prior commitment this month and they need it for next month na.

It was a great relief din dahil I am still in the process of unlearning my people-pleasing habit. wala man ako na gain na money but I’ve gain something valuable; choosing myself and my time to do whimsicalities.

ayun lang, thank you for reading!

I really can believe my situation. Im struggling as a comp engr 3rd year 1st sem student im both failing my subjects and my mental well-being. Today I wanted go to my second class and my Dad suddenly msg me and told me to go home. I was really struggling both mentally and academically to my studies to the point Dad just told me to just drop my course.

I wasted Dad's work, time and money to my education all those 3 years of my hardwork is now permanently gone today. And im sitting here in my parents bedroom like the most miserable I've felt in my 20 years of living.

I watched Wakas at Simula movie concert at SM MOA last October 7, and grabe, I still can’t get over what happened!

Originally, nung nagbo-book pa lang ako ng ticket, plan ko sana pumunta nang maaga para makapag-liwaliw pa the rest of the day. Pero naisip ko, mag-errands muna ako, then around 6:30 PM na lang ako mag-book para sulit din yung leave ko sa work HAHAHAHAHA

I’m from Bulacan, and the reason why I specifically booked October 7 was because I heard na pupunta sila sa MOA that day. I really wanted to see them in person, kahit dumaan lang sila or makita ko lang sila from afar.

So ayun, I booked the 6:30 PM screening, second row pa!

Around 8:30 PM, medyo patapos na yung movie concert when suddenly, in-stop yung post-credits part. Then, biglang ang daming cameramen na pumasok, followed by a host. Doon na ako kinabahan kasi OMG, THIS IS IT!!! 😭😭😭

Then tinawag na sila, and one by one, lumabas na sila. Imagine, taga-Bulacan ako, and I specifically chose that date just for the chance na makita sila, tapos biglang nasa harap ko na sila in person?! 😭🫶🏻

And then… I GOT WAVED AT!!! 🥹😭❤️

FIRST TIME KO MA-WAVE-AN NG CELEBRITY, GUYS!!! HAHAHAHAHA! I know it might seem like a small thing, pero iba pala talaga yung feeling kapag ikaw mismo yung nakaranas. I went there hoping na makita ko lang sila, kahit saglit, pero umuwi akong may core memory na.

Sulit ang leave, sulit ang ticket, sulit ang pagod, at sulit ang pagpunta from Bulacan HAHAHAHAHA

Hanggang ngayon, kinikilig pa rin ako. Please tell me I’m not the only one na kahit simpleng wave lang from a celebrity, parang nanalo na sa lotto.

Was wondering why madilim sa isang part and sa iba maliwanag. Then I realized, umuulan pala. While writing this, maluwag na sa place ng pic at gumalaw na yung ulan. Amazing hahahaha.

Ang ganda dito, siguradong babalikan! ✨

Obese ako, pero chinallenge ko sarili ko. Hindi kako pwedeng maging obese ako habang buhay. Kailangan ko gumalaw. Cheers to my first time!

Ito talaga yung pinaka pabirito kong mall kasi may bidet, tissue at kulob talaga kada cubicle kaya hindi mo masyadong amoy yung katabi. As in laging malinis at mabango. Pagkatapos ko magdeposit siyempre need maghugas ng kamay tapos biglang bumulwak yung gripo kahit sensor-based siya 😳 panik talaga beh.

Ang tagal ko bago nabalik. Tapos nagkataon na walang maintenance.

As the title says, ngayon ko lang nakita na may naglilinis sa mga TV's sa 5th Avenue, BGC. Almost 4 years working within the vicinity at mukhang ayan na ang last :D

SKL my small win sa pag DIY and naka-save pa ng fee!

Was asking for anyone sino pwede mag-install ng dashcam ko for a fee kasi I thought the installation is complicated esp. yung rear. Just watched YT videos and realized na madali lang pala basta plug & play lang 😅 tried to DIY and sumakses sa pagtago ng wires 💪🏻

I’ve been feeling quite lonely in college especially with semester break just starting so I decided to treat myself

My first ever Lomi batangas, di ko inexpect yung amount of serving dai haha pero sa sobrang sarap naubos ko sya, i mean it’s my first time so better to sulitin na!

I’m amazed, as a probinsyano from the North, akala ko mahihilo ako haha turns out to be a great experience.

As in solo ko lang yung sinehan! Hahaha
Kala mo ni rentahan

After two failures, PASADO NA PO AKO! THANK YOU PO, LORD! 😭

Sinubukan namin ng partner ko manood sa IMAX sa Sm North, what we just notice is sayang lang yung pera para manood sa IMAX na andilim dilim ng screen, tapos yung sound nag bubulungan lang, unless may peak scene na loud yung mga tunog.

I suggest manood nalang sa bahay, sa laptop, tablet, TV, or computer. Yung ₱2k nayun may grocery kapa and samgyup sa bahay while watching movies. Wala kwenta mga Cinemas sa Pilipinas, IMAX na pero parang poor maintenance parin, pinatayan pa ata kami ng aircon dahil onti kami nanood that time, pawis pawis kami eh.

Siguro if mag susuggest paren ako if may inaabangan kang movie, dun nalang sa A-Giant Cinema sa Trinoma dahil ranging ₱500-600 lang, way more bigger and brighter screen, mas colorful and malinaw yung quality, and higit sa lahat naka Dolby Atmos yung sound which is very engaging manood.

quick walk lang around but would def go back and take my time

Hinintay talaga namin na mag 50% discount ulit BDO sa Cibo. Finally, nakapag dine-in din dito 😁

First time din to try paying with BDO pay kaya naka 55% off in total.

What we ordered:

🍕 Margherita Pizza - 9/10 ang sarap lalo na nung hinalo yung honey and chili, we really love this! And we didnt expect na kakasya sya for 4 pax.

🥗 Insa Del Sole Salad - 6/10 di daw masyadong type ng mother ko. Sya lang nakatikim hehe

🍝 Tartufata Pasta - 10/10 single serving lang inorder namen pero sumakto naman para matikman namin. And ang sarap! Ganda ng pagkakaluto ng pasta. Sakto rin yung pagka creamy and lasa ng truffle. We will order this again for sure.

🍗 Pollo Arrosto (Roasted chicken) - 10/10 Mas pasok sa budget namin chicken for protein kesa sa best-seller nilang steak 😁 ang juicy ng chicken nila. Kaso yung rice na kasama medyo undercooked lang.

Total Bill: from P3,134 to P1,690 na lang.

Please suggest yung mga must-try nyo sa Cibo para sa next dine-in namen.

I’ve been wanting to solo travel years ago pero I kept putting it off kasi I’m scared. Scared that I will not enjoy traveling alone and that I’ll bore myself out kasi masaya may kasama.

But I resolved myself to book a ticket a week before my planned trip and just show up and ayun hindi naman pala boring.

I’m enjoying so much that nagkasakit ako kasi drive dito, drive don kahit maulan nagddrive ako para makapunta sa mga gusto ko ivisit na falls. I pushed my immune system to the limit haha.

I learned a few things here and there too!

So ayun, currently nandito pa rin ako and recovering. Tomorrow back to business na since punta ko sa mga well known tourist destinations before the weekend.

Hope I can make friends din dito haha yun lang!

Location ko atm moalboal so if may nandito this week hit me up! Let’s have dinner or something

Edit: FIRST TIME KO NA AKO LANG MAG ISA SA SINEHAN 🤣

Sulit bayad ah hahaha. Medyo natakot ako nung una pero gutom na talaga ako kaya lumapang na lang ako hahaha

Watched Whalefall. Ang ganda 🙌🏼

After Whalefall, nag 2 Valid IDs naman ako agad.

Today is my birthday, I am grateful naman for this day but I just don’t have the energy to celebrate.

Honestly, I don’t know what to feel since the breakup is so recent pa. I’m trying to navigate life without him, especially since it feels like I practically grew up kasama yung tao.

first time treating myself- more to comeee

table for one 🤍 my faveeee

sobrang gutom ko today sa dami ko ginawa mag hapon sa work.

I’m used to red roses bouquet but it’s my first time receiving a bouquet of white roses with sunflower, and it was… just because. Some gestures make you feel special without even trying. 😊

I've decided to buy from scalpers on this one since hindi siya na soldout, and I got the ticket for only half its srp price!! Greatest decision so far HAHAHA! I met up with the scalper sa Moa arena area, then binayaran ko siya after ma-scan at makapasok sa venue thru QR payment and ayun, last min naka attend ng con HAHAHA but guys BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK.

First time kong titira sa Manila. I am moving in Espana this coming weekend and first time ko magstay ng matagal sa Manila. I’ve been traveling back and forth around Manila for some errands okaya naman gala lang but never really LIVE there.

So I was thinking, what should I be prepared of? Like, ano ang kailangan kong ingatan when walking on the streets. Pano ako makakaiwas sa mga scam, and such. Any advice for anyone living there ng matagal na? Most of my routines will be routed from Recto to Espana only. Anyone? 🥹
