To be honest, I don't have any idea what topic I'm going to post here. I just visited my blog and see if there are any new notifications here. Unfortunately, nothing else is new! HAHAHA Anyway, because I'm already here, I'll continue to write and think of any topic to discuss here. Ok, give me some minutes and I'll just refresh my mind of what is the best thing to write. Oh uh! Can't think of any. HAHAHA Sorry! Ok, I'll be back soon and I'll promise to have an entry here that are interesting and worth readable, unlike this post. HAHAHA Maybe I just want to have an ENTRY FOR THIS MONTH here on my blog. Oh! This post is really non-sense. HAHAHA Bye for now! :P

Remembering my Tatay...

My Nanay and I went to Himlayan Cemetery to visit my Tatay’s grave in remembering his 14th death anniversary. August 29 is the exact date of Tatay’s death anniversary but due to household chores that Nanay and I usually do every weekend, we decided to visit Tatay the following day (August 30, 2010). Yes, it’s been 14 long years that our Tatay left us due to lung cancer but his presence in our lives still lingers on. I was nine 9 years old when he passed away but the memories I’ve shared with my father are still very vivid and unforgettable. I considered my Nanay as the soft-spoken in our family while my Tatay was the disciplinarian. Though my father has a strong personality, I was never scared of him because I know that in his strong character, a good and loving father is what he really portrayed. I heard a lot of good comments about my father that most of our relatives liked him. They’ve said that my father was well-loved by everybody because of his character. Yes, he’s strict, but...

From Silence to Sharing -- My Unconventional Journey and Prioritizing Mental Health

Writing has never been my strong suit. At most times, I grappled with writing slump and the distractions that life unfailingly presents. But today, before the Year 2023 closes its chapter (Kathniel yarn? lol), I'm courageously sharing a piece of my life. A little nervous, but also empowered, as only a few are aware of this. I used to keep everything inside, but now I'm opening up, and I hope this can help someone else going through a tough time like I did. Life can be tough, especially when you've lost someone, but I want to encourage others to find their strength and keep going, no matter what. STORYTIME: I had only worked for just eight months in my former company when they offered me an overseas opportunity during the pandemic's peak. Uncertainty loomed, but my mom's (BesNay) contagious enthusiasm encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone. However, life paints a complex picture. I faced the heart-wrenching loss of my mother wh...

Slumdog Areas: Keeping their faith!

Have you watched Slumdog Millionaire? It's a story of a young boy who grew up in a depressed area in Mumbai, India. When he was young, he didn't bother with all the hatred, negative comments and poverty that surrounded him. Instead, he moved forward and he won a million bucks when he joined the Indian version of "Who wants to be a Millionaire"! Sounds interesting, right? During my college days, we had a subject entitled Program Planning and Building which we gathered information and data in our chosen barangays . We interviewed people from depressed areas about their lives in their slum houses. At first, I was a bit nervous and frigid because my thesis mates kept on teasing who will be the first one to conduct an interview. Because I have a soft spot with the people in slum areas, I decided to be the first one to mingle with them. We asked them about their jobs, families, their cost of living and what are their plans for the future. Some of them were hopeless case...
