Finally got to drive in the place where I crashed almost a year ago.

I’m a new driver (almost a year of driving pa lang). And last year, around the 2nd month of driving, I crashed our car at a mall parking lot. It was so bad - the driver’s side was so damaged, our insurance claim hit 750k and I had to pay 15k to the other party (kahit na may TPL kami).

Ever since, I tried my best to overcome my fear of driving and crashing. I took driving lessons again one month after the crash. I also became a more cautious driver. But I never drove to that mall anymore. I still went there but my partner would drive or mag trike na lang ako.

Last week, I needed to drive there kasi ang lakas ng ulan and mahirap magcommute. Sobrang ngatog talaga halos nagpapawis kamay ko and ang gulo ng utak ko. The moment na may nakita akong empty slot kahit ang layo sa entrance nagpark na ako agad. After non, nanginginig pa rin kamay ko.

Baby steps but I’m glad nagawa ko and safe ako nakauwi din.

We celebrated his first barkday! 🎂

He had fun with his new dog friends and his new clothes! 😄 My only wish for him is to stop being a picky eater 🤣

Brought my dog to the vet because he kept skipping meals. Vet said it was behavioral issue 🤣 bye $82

So back in December, my dog was skipping meals whatever we put down and was apparently suffering from an infection and anemia. He became OK and started eating normally until recently again. He wouldn’t eat pork or beef sometimes and he would skip up to 2 consecutive meals until he eats whatever was served again.

We thought he might be sick so we brought him to the vet. All his blood results were OK. He’s very healthy. Apparently, he’s just a VERY VERY PICKY EATER 😭

He’s on fresh food + kibble (nature’s protection adult salmon) diet. He’d eat it if there’s chicken but we can’t keep giving him that since his tear stains come back and we don’t want that. So we need to stick to hypoallergenic kibble and fresh food that’s pork or beef.

He was prescribed Mosegor Syrup and to switch his kibble (we switched to NP Lamb instead). Hoping he eats because he’s turning 1 soon and we don’t want him going hungry 🤣🤣🤣

Most kids have it easy these days but their parents have it harder I guess??

With all due respect to those kids (still studying). I just noticed that most kids I know have it easy. I know kids from non-rich families with parents na panay reklamo sa dami ng gastos at nangungutang at ang daming problema or isa lang ang may trabaho sa magulang pero nakukuha pa rin ang gusto.

May kilala akong magulang na lubog sa utang pero kahit anong luho hinihingi ng anak, binibili nya even if that will mean more utang.

May kilala din akong graduating hs student (kilala ko ang nanay nya). Binigyan siya ng choices sa university. Isang government university at isang private na may kamahalan. Yung nanay nya kinukuchaba kami na iconvince ang anak nya na sa govt univ na lang mag-aral dahil wala na siyang pampaaral sa private or maghihirap na sila. But yung anak nya, yung private pa rin ang pinipili at halos walang magawa ang nanay kundi pagbigyan.

May isa din akong kilala na bata (junior hs pa lang) at nakakabili na ng luxury aka LV or Gucci sa ibang bansa dahil binibigyan ng lola nya ng pera (yung lola nya ang kakilala ko) kahit na yung lola eh panay reklamo sa lahat ng nailalabas nyang pera sa apo.

Alam kong medyo problematic ang magulang dito sa mga examples na to pero bilib pa din ako sa mga batang ganito. Nung ako yung nasa edad nila, never ko nakuha mga gusto ko. Kung ano lang ang meron yung magulang ko na ibibigay sakin, yun lang. walang choice. Even if it that means di ko gusto. Yung mga wishes ko na gamit halos madalang ko lang makuha. Partida living comfortably naman kami pero malala lang talaga mag-ipon magulang ko.

Nagugulat lang ako sa panahon ngayon.

Don’t put a lens protector if you’re thinking twice

Just small piece or advice. Lens protectors alter the optical quality of the lens and also the strength of the filter magnets clipping on your lens.

I realized that too late. I wanted to avoid any signs of wear and tear to my Pocket 4 and immediately put on a screen and lens protector. Then I realized that the lens filters clip too loosely and sometimes idk my video quality seems kinda cloudy or not as crisp as the first time I used it.

I tried removing it today. Took me 2 hours to chip away at the edge using many tools like scissors, tweezers, laminated ID, credit card, cutter, and mostly a needle (broke one).

After 2 hours the tempered cracked. I got a mini heart attack as I thought it was the actual lens glass since i was chipping at the edge too long. But it was the tempered.

If you’re thinking twice, just raw dog your device before regretting it.
