For context, I stopped playing basketball as a hobby around early 2020 before magpandemic because nawalan na ako ng interest, wala din akong proper self confidence and yung court inside our subdivision ni-lock and may fee na to use, which is lame considering na free for use yon for the subdivision. In that time, my basketball shoes are the Nike Zoom Rize na regalo sakin ng father ko. I still have the shoes and minsan minsan lang maglaro pero never regularly. Now na natanggal na yung BOD and may new set na of BOD, the court was opened na and bumalik yung interest ko in playing back again. This time idgaf on what people will say, i will just play with confidence kahit di ako magaling.

Now my Nike Zoom Rize, pasira na siya. Given naman na yon kasi matagal na yung shoes ko. I am now looking to buy a new pair pero right now, I don’t have any idea on what shoes are good now and napapangitan na ako sa mga designs ng basketball shoes today unlike before (or tumatanda na siguro ako lol. 27M).

Right now, yung natitipuhan kong bilhin is the Believe That by Anthony Edwards. Can anyone recommend kung anong pwedeng basketball shoes for mainly outdoor use? Kahit any brand.

Edit: budget ko po is maximum of 6k.

Pwede ba magclaim ng iba yung NBI Clearance ko? May work kasi ako ipapaclaim ko sana sa kapatid ko with authorization of course.

May bus po ba na deretso don or need pa din ng MRT?

I graduated nung June 2024 then got a job ng November the same year. Before ako grumaduate, nag intern ako sa isang Government Agency; to be specific, assigned ako sa Office of the COA Auditor. I loved the job and siguro dito ko narealize na gusto ko maging Civil Servant. Nag-apply ako under agency with decent pay sa isang GOCC and luckily, I got hired as a staff ng Office of the COA Auditor, given my experience.

I took the Civil Service Exam twice with the first one nung March last year and passed this year. I took care of my requirements like PDS, updated my resume, my CSC Certificate will be released next month and to follow na yung iba once I got the job offer. Here's my dilemma: I don't know where to start like how or where to apply. May backer ako pero balak ko munang magapply sa sarili ko sa mga gusto kong agency and gagawin ko na lang safety net yung backer ko.

I know job offers will take long kasi alam naman na natin yan, pero hindi naman ako nagmamadali kasi firstly, we are in the middle of the audit sa Agency and mahihirapan yung mga Auditors namin kapag na short staff sila given na busy sila, and secondly may mga payments na din ako kaya I can't afford to resign. I have followed the advice of many people na wag munang magresign until makakuha ako ng job offer.

Sa mga nakaranas ng situation ko right now: how can I start? Can I submit applications kahit wala pa akong certificate of eligibility? And of course, any advice will be appreciated.
