#SISIG IS LOVE SISIG IS LIFE

[lvrby-katsuki]

moment of silence to the non-filos who have never tried sisig

[still-finding-her-place]

Quick food trip with friends ✨

First stop, of course Bulalo and sisig for breakfast. We’ve ordered the barkada bundle, and boy it’s too much for our tummies! Had to ask the servers for a portion to go.

Cutie Bulalo Point

Next stop: Dear Joe, crosswinds ✨

Since it was lunch time, and a friday, we basically have the cafe to ourselves.

But of course, after chilling, their stomach’s were now asking for dinner.

Last stop: Pamahaw

Look how serene the place was 🤍

Seafood boodle fight for my friends who have seafood allergies ☠️😭

Incomplete**

Then we had our nap on the way home 😭🥲

Till next adventure, A!

is it okay to req for a filo reader? i saw merienda and immediately thought "kababayan" im sorry tho if i got it wrong—😭

MILES with a filipino reader

a/n: okay i'm so sorry this is really short because life is very hectic right now </3 i hope u enjoy tho

tags:

you would swear in filo a lot to the point where miles'd learn how to swear himself... he'd know more profanities than anything else LMAO

you'd love making miles try our filo foods like sisig! sinigang! adobo! or maybe even snacks like clover, piatos, or street food like isaw, fish balls, all your childhood food!

you call miles' parents tito and tita. they breathed a sigh of relief when you first met them and you didn't call them by their first names

your parents LOVE miles! they're happy their child is dating someone with good grades (ha ha..)

your moms would always make chika together also HAHAHA

miles would try to learn a little filipino to impress you. it may have a little bit of an accent but it's okay because it's the thought that counts!!

You're lying down on Miles' bed, illuminated phone in one hand and the other intertwined with your boyfriend's. You can kind of tell he's trying to tell you something, the way his eyes constantly shift to your gaze and back to his phone.

"What's up? You seem bothered." You yourself started to get quite bothered with the continuous glances.

Miles' attention immediately shifts to you. "Oh, yeah. I wanted to show you something."

Your interest peaks when he opens his phone and clears up his throat. "Ahem. Magandang... hapon.. po." (good afternoon, formally)

At once, your eyes light up and you break into the biggest smile he's ever seen— he is a little stunned at your oh-so-positive response.

"My gosh, where'd you learn that? That's amazing!"

"Um, I know a few more phrases, actually. I got this, uh, language app."

You beckon him to recite, ecstatic at his knowledge for your own language.

"Okay, um... ikaw ay maganda! (you are pretty, in a slightly stiff way) And uhh, asan po yung banyo?" (where is the bathroom?)

You let out a hearty laugh at the latter sentence, your heart fluttering at his endearing self.

"Hay, bat ang pogi mo talaga?" (why are you so handsome) You pull him into a hug, showering him with kisses. His ears turn a little red, but he plays it cool (or so he thinks) with a slightly awkward peck returned on the cheek.

Your heart swelled at the idea that Miles had put in so much effort towards appreciating your language and culture.

"Mahal ko kita, aking sinta." (love you, my darling)

a/n 2: listen since miles is using a language app to learn he also probably knows common phrases tourists might use to get around so... thats why i kinda put that

.📻🍳🐯🌙

📻 = What music genre do the mun and muse listen to the most? Any favorite bands?

my favorite band of all time is sleigh bells, has been for something like 14 years. i have so much to say about them… anyway, i've been listening to lauren bousfield a lot since last year around the same time stampede started airing; even now i listen to palimpsest and salesforce a Lot i listen to quite a mix of genres [here's my topsters list for albums], but to try and put it in broad strokes to answer the 'genre' thing… it seems like i like listening to music with distorted vocals, very maximalist songs with more emphasis on making you feel something than being the most eloquent and efficient with the lyrics.

i like vgm and witch house and jungle and any sound at all that makes me feel something.

i think i answered an earlier ask about stamps liking noise and understanding the scene—that people can and will dance to it because music is something that makes you feel something even if it doesn't have an orthodox melody/rhythm/etc. given the novelty of it and the openmindedness that vash tends to have i think he'd do fine with experimental, noise, etc. sorta genres; i don't think there'd be any genre he'd hear and have it be the sonic equivalent of giving a caveman a warhead candy or whatever.

but i also think that vash would particularly love live music, from concerts to just someone chilling out outside with an out of tune guitar, covering a rock song to kill some time.

sure he's got that radio/music player he keeps around, but i think he'd gladly take those earbuds out if he hears a friend humming or whistling or notices the wind picking up and nudging against windchimes or howling through metal structures.

he's used to living a life where you can't really stay put, and have to find meaning out of the little things. sometimes they require for you to focus on them, sometimes they make you stop and listen

🍳 = What are the mun’s and muse’s favorite foods?

i talked about liking pistachios (especially with whatever chocolate i have on hand) as a snack earlier. i'm also a big fan of anything and everything cotton candy, especially ice cream. i am allergic to a Lot of things, but if i were to only eat what i'm not allergic to, i'd easily get malnourished. my favorite fruit's strawberries (which i'm allergic to…..), although! i'm Not allergic to any kinda seafood, which is fantastic news for me given how much i love seafood :3 especially mussels and octopus! i've only eaten oysters once but i did enjoy how its just like eating a mouthful of solidified seawater

i'm filipino-chinese and have been pretty blessed w/availability of respective cuisine; favorite soup is sinigang, which is wonderfully sour and brings me a lotta comfort. could fuck up some sisig or bicol express any day. i've only ever had spaghetti of the filipino kind, and prefer my lemonade to be the kind made with calamansi.

favorite dessert is leche flan (the filipino kind's a lot denser, with more egg yolk and condensed milk). a lot of my birthday cakes were either goldilocks or red ribbon (bakery brands) mango cakes or mocha cakes lol. even now it still Is the go-to for any celebratory cake

ougghh peking duck and yangchow fried rice make me forget about all my problems in life… i'm also very happy to be at any dim sum place especially if i can get cantonese siomai or that one dish that's like chao tom but in Ball Form… egg tarts and mango pudding… dude i will be so happy. i will be SO happy

anyway i also talked about stamps liking oranges and orange juice! the rest of the food that was on the table for the twins' first birthday… looks kinda bland honestly lol. but, it makes me think that stamps would probably find space food to be nostalgic! i'm sure he's also grateful that Plants know how to produce[?!] pizza??

my interpretation of vash has a pretty big sweet tooth, and indulges it with fruit and desserts and pastries. although i've had him enjoy donuts as a nod to his other counterparts, i've also had him express that his favorite kind of donut is "assorted", LOL.

so i imagine him to be a lot less picky about his food given his circumstances, but i think that also comes with him not having too many "favorites", and there's still plenty of firsts he needs to try out here in spirale where it's possible! he's probably especially excited about what human food engineering's come up with, so any food that has that sort of novelty to it (like the whole miracle fruit thing, or spicy ice cream) has a particular appeal to him.

🐯 = What animals would best be associated with the mun and muse?

with me… well, besides mice and rats (due to being quite attached to my zodiac sign lol) i don't have any other super strong animal associations w/myself, they're all mostly bugs or fictitious animals LOL. online quizzes have given me killer whales and polar bears. i had a sick-ass dream about falconry once?? i guess if i had to pick, then it'd be hummingbirds! or maybe pigeons… wow! my answers all over the place

for vash… i did make him a ptarmigan for endless aurora. he chose those dudes 'cause he mistook them for doves LOL. i wonder what kind of bird call is used in the full version of TOMBI? kinda wanna say that's an eagle

suppose there's a little bit of lamb association with vash, given wolfwood's mission with him and the biblical stuff goin on over there. then there's also the namesake! i keep forgetting to make stamps buy a highland cow plushie wearin heart shades for maxvash and calling that guy the 'third vash' [or 'fourth vash', if we're counting spamton as an honorary vash?]

🌙 = Are the mun and muse more morning, day, or night people? When are they the most relaxed? When do they get the most work done?

i stay up too late and have a very erratic sleep pattern. daytime and sunsets make me the happiest, but sometimes mornings and nighttime's the only times of day where it's cold enough and quiet enough to Think. i dont have a phobia of the dark and i can sleep at any hour of the day so theres no real time of day that i dislike, at least

vash strikes me as a morning person… sorta. i think he sleeps more if he hasn't been eating hence all the dozing he does on-screen even when it's like the middle of the day, with his mood apparently remaining unaffected. i also know he's had to tend to animals & worked tirelessly hard as a Plant engineer. he doesn't ever seem to be disturbed by the heat that two suns bring on or by the chill of the desert-planet night, so i could see him be pretty adaptable himself.

i think the only reason he'd feel anxious about nighttime is bc a lot of terrible things (the Big Fall, the destruction of Jeneora Rock, the attack on the Humpback, the night of 7/21, etc) tend to happen then. which incidentally is part of why i made his giant challenge occur in the morning last summer; i'm mean, and i don't think he should get to feel safe from the horrors just because the sun's up

“Be careful, you are not in wonderland.”

— Allen Ginsberg, Kill Your Darlings (2013)

Welcome to my timeline! I am Jomara, but you can call me Jom. I’m currently 18 years old, born on December 21. I don’t really like putting labels on myself, but in case you are to refer to me with pronouns, I’m comfortable with any pronouns and/or I usually go by she/her and they/them. I mostly spend my day by reading fanfics, watching films, scrolling through different socmed platforms (e.g. Twitter), and most of all, admiring art. Recently, I’ve realized that I do not have a knack in playing games that usually need strategy and tactics, for my mind and personality are much simpler than I thought; however, I can tell that I’m adept in finding fun and beauty in everything I come across to, which I think is very important in life. 

I like caramel-flavored beverages and iced coffee. I usually order salted caramel frappuccino, salted caramel milk tea, salted caramel ice cream, caramel cappuccino, and caramel iced coffee in coffee shops. I like to eat my mother’s adobo, pork binagoongan, and chicken curry; my father’s sisig and pork dinuguan; and my brother's bicol express. I have a wide range of music tastes as I like to listen to Taylor Swift, Arctic Monkeys, HOZIER, DPR, HONNE, Harry Styles, The NBHD, LE SSERAFIM, STAYC, Rivermaya, Zild, and etc. I also like reading novels that have a slowburn type of romance; I’m fond of watching people develop love for each other in a pace that fits their feelings.

I’m not really fond of cakes because of their texture. I have a huge dislike, too, of insects. I’m not a pet-person, but I do find them adorable. I don’t like it, too, when people leave the door open and turn off the lights when I’m already lying down in my bed. Moreover, I dislike people who cross the line and make me feel that I’m obligated to answer them. But the most important thing of all, I hate men’s fragile ego!

Recently, I've been interested in cosplaying. I’d love to try it some other time, when my tasks are finally done, and if possible, go to cosplay conventions, too. Apart from that, dolling myself up is a new interest for me. I’ve never done make-up myself before, but now I want to learn it. I’ve been buying products, trying those out myself, and I think I’d buy more, as I’m loving myself more as a woman. I can finally share sentiments with other girls who love to doll themselves up to look more confident and pretty. It’s really fascinating!

I hope you can find my life interesting as you scroll through my timeline. Nevertheless, I still want to thank you for your time and have a great day ahead!

[alexan-fr]

just a random and appreciation post kasi 3 months na kaming hindi nagkikita ni marie

siblings close in age are really the only people that experience each stage of life together. grow up around the same age, have kids around the same age, raise a family around the same age, and grow old around the same age. no one else gets to live those moments with you every single path of the way.

marie is the best gift both of my parents have given me. no amount of material things could make me feel otherwise. i wouldn't want to ask for more from them— she is enough and i will forever be grateful and blessed that she's my sister, my bestfriend, my kakampi in every battle.

i miss you, marie! hope to see you soon, sizzling 💙🤍

ps. 'sizzling' because we both love sisig, and 'siz' for sister. and by the way, we used to cringe everytime my mom and aunt called each other 'sister,' but OURS IS EVEN MORE CRINGY HAHAHA i just love her so much.

ps. you all hate your sisters.. i would risk my whole life for mine.

[deyzalee]

Dear God,

Thankful and blessed today. All is well after my 24 hours duty. I arrived home safely. I had my self care routine. I ate two Ben’s cookies and drank milk. I drank my vitamins and medicines. I watched True Beauty while waiting for my sleep. I slept and woke up at 6PM plus. I scrolled my social media accounts, chatted my family and friends. I played cooking fever. I watched random videos on Youtube and Tiktok. I reheated the pork sisig and ate it for dinner. I also ate pani puri and drank Peach drink. I had my self and skin care routine. I read few pages of the Bible. I received my new pocket pink Bible that I bought from Amazon. I made cover letter for my CV. I drank green tea. watched True Beauty. I cooked white rice for tomorrow’s meal. I will drink my medicines. I will continue to watch True Beauty. Have mercy on us Oh God. Guide us always to the right path. Remove sickness, danger and negative things in our life. Answer our prayers in your perfect time. Thank you and I love you God.

This hell that I was walking into

Was intending to do the FFXIV fanwrite using FGO X FFXIV as a crossover. but some point of starting Tendonitis hits and energy level went down. If anything I probably would end up attempting it again (Either with or without Wodime meeting Emet because Wodime could have be a shard of his late son)

Before ShB, the timey whimey timeline of an FGO-FFXIV crossover that got pruned

Mash, Mordred, Emiya, Cu, Kiritsugu, Iri, Tamamo/Cat(Tamamo pretending to be Cat because wary of Emet. Something sun theme vibes something) as the servants who accompanied Gudako

Stormblood part of timeline where FFXIV main team was probably in Ala Mhigo-Kugane. Exarch avoiding Mor Dhona to avoid questions.

Exarch stole the excess Light and threw himself into the rift. Ascended to Throne of Heroes(?). Chained summoned with Future/ Primal/ Psuedo Servant  Hylnyan(a BRD-DRK-SMN synch that can use her headspace crew as her Light party) to deal with a summoned Emet. Emet eventually has to eat the excess Light. Timeline will still get pruned. FGO team was to fix this singularity lest it becomes a Lostbelt. Emet will tempt Gudako into Ascian-dom

How did they meet?

Probably landed near Falcon’s Nest. Mordred and Mash could pass as Ishgardian Knights guiding a bunch of Hingan folks from Idllyshire who were trying to get to Limsa to get back to Kugane because of their largely Hingan looking crew (Let’s go with that).

Emet looking to Mash and Iri(the way the resident WHM clings to Kerry) as the potentially weakest members of the group (vague impression that they were not real humans compared to the rest that felt more like spirits. The servants pique Emet's interest).

Emet has this feeling that he shouldn't use soul sight on the servants because whatever Iri is as a grail conduit and Tamamo might burn his eyes out with how bright they are. Especially sun theme Tamamo (Not familiar enough with Typemoon magic. just soul/life/galaxy/primordial magic BS on my part)

Bad idea when his current body was hit by Kerry’s Origin bullets weakening it enough for combine trial fight to allow the excess Light to neutralise Emet

Why Emet got summoned? I don’t know? Something to do with denial of his own death at some point and wanting someone who understand why he did what he did? Caused a singularity and Gudako is my current Gudako.

With the exception of Cu, Mash and Tamamo the other servants were picked with Seiyuus in mind. (Ardbert, Cid, Lucia, Minfilia). I would have love to bring Kiara(Ameliance/Sadu/ Kan-E-Senna/Miqo'te voice 2) along but I don't have her.

Einzbern-Emiya family’s situation is unique, since not everyone is the original F/Z self. Other than that servants who can use the FFXIV myths and storyline got compatibility to rayshift with Gudako. And this is the most well behaved and less black/white moral issues team. And this team give me more background to work with since I like them.

Atalanta would have sided with Hylnyan in LB1 way. Emiya kinda walked Ardbert’s path. Kerry’s FGO design reminds me of Fatebreaker(the other way around actually). Spectral Basaka wa dare ni mo makenai!!! Sekai de ichiban tsuyoi dakara!!! Rengoku (Thancred) is a sword….

And Mordred. She gets to use Bastard child and daddy/mommy issues/weapon bred for destruction as compatible rayshift reason (hi Aymeric, Huarchefant and Zenos!) Plus she shares a seiyuu with Minfilia. Plus she was in my Chaldea longer than her OG father and made a name for herself headcannon wise(thanks Sisigou!)

Battle near big bridge

With the clairvoyance of Cas/Ko-Gil who wisely chose not to be a part of this fic because meeting Greg could fused the dimensions or something.  

And then there's the granps who are trying to steal POV limelight. so it might be a GOT Multiview short story thing.

October 16, 2022

I want to die and live at the same time, or maybe I just want my thoughts to get quiet? I tried killing myself several times but everytime I do it, I just breakdown, and cry. Life is so cruel, if this is just a lesson then why am I still in pain? Why am I still hurt?

They say, "Time heals" so I waited for years and years, 'till it's more than a decade yet I'm still stuck in the past. I can't accept it, I can't move on, I can't let that little me suffer alone. Some people may say "Just move on, if you can't accept it then how will you move forward?" Simply, because I can't. It's hard to accept something specially if you didn't even received an apology, or even your own justice.

It's suffocating, I'm drowning from sorrowness, It's getting worse everyday, I don't have anyone or someone to be there with me. I have a lot of loving friends and I'm grateful to have them in my life, but I still feel alone. I know they already got their own problems to deal with, I don't want to make them feel like they are obligated to make me better, or to help me become better. I just hope I can do this alone, and someday.. I hope I get an enough courage to just kill myself. I'm tired, everyday that I wake up I'm not grateful or happy, I'm just disappointed because that just means another day to feel like the most shittiest person in the world, another day of remembering my trauma, and another day full of disappointments. I hope tomorrow I don't wake up, I just want to sleep and stay in my dreams. Because, I can no longer take this anymore, my heart and mind is going to explode they are both in pain, I can't explain it but it's so heavy. Too heavy that it feels like it's going to burst out.

It's too heavy, that I'm starting to have hallucinations.. sometimes I see myself running towards the truck just to kill myself or jumping off the building and hanging myself, that's how desperate I am to just kill myself.. however I couldn't do it, there's something stopping me.. I wish it won't stop me anymore the next time I do it.

March 4, 2024

I'm grateful for today. I don't wish to die anymore, I'm starting to love life. I'M. FALLING. IN. LOVE. WITH. LIFE. Big changes, almost 2 years ago I thought I wouldn't be able to make it I was really in the dark at that time, but look at me now. I can't help but to feel proud of myself, I am so glad that I managed to pick myself up, to tell myself that this isn't the life that I wanted, that I prove to my younger versions of myself that I am so much stronger than the thoughts inside me.

I no longer feel alone. I no longer feel like when I wake up it's going to be the worst day ever. I'm no longer surviving. I'm. Actually. Living. Life!!! Although my friends don't know it, I love how they somehow healed my heart & soul. The little things they did for me, the way they joke around with me, the way we always got each other's back when one of us is crying, the selecta ice cream we always buy when things go south, me and my girl friends telling each other that we're pretty, the way we hype each other in the comfort room while we do our own girly stuffs thing. I also appreciate my parents who are always mad and screaming around the house but made sure that me and my brother are having the best life they could ever give, my mom who sacrificed a lot emotionally, physically, and mentally, I know how much it's hurting her sometimes and yet she's still trying her best to be the mom we need. My mom who was always there for me. To my dad— thank you for not pressuring me in acads, thank you for always spoiling me the things that I want and need, thank you for the 7/11 sisig whenever, I'm still studying and it's past midnight.. thank you for being the best dad I could ever have. All the small things that they think did are what matters to me the most— because, it's what made me feel like I am a human being who is just trying to learn how to live this life, it's what made me feel like I'm actually living and being loved by the people who surrounds me. I failed to see these people around me 2 years ago, but not anymore. So, this message I made is also for those who helped and developed my character along the way, to those people who came and left me with a greatest lesson in life, to those people who saw and knew all the past versions of myself and still stayed, to those people who have loved me for who I am, and to my wise Auntie Joanna who opened my eyes and made me realize a lot of things in life. Please, know that I am truly grateful that I met and had the chance to live this life knowing that you have come into my life. I will always carry our shared memories & lessons that I have learned along the way. So that the next time I feel a wave of sadness I will remember how I had you in my life, that you were once and still in it (forever engraved in my heart, soul & in my mind). How you changed me into a better person, this time I'll know how to handle it.

So to anyone struggling in life like me 2 years ago, I'm telling you it does gets better but you have to help yourself, you have to beat that thoughts inside your head, you have to believe in yourself, and I know it's not going to be easy but, you'll get there. Enjoy your time, enjoy your life. Don't waste it overthinking on things that are not happening yet, don't waste your tears on some dude who didn't text you back, don't waste your time stressing on things you can't control, you have to seize the day. LIVE. AND. LOVE. LIFE. Perhaps, 2 years from now, 3 years from now or even 5 years from now.. you'll look back and realize that you're the strongest person you know, because you managed to get out. You managed to overcome that fear, that thoughts inside you that are eating you or whatever it is that is holding you back from enjoying life. I. KNOW. YOU. CAN. AND. YOU. WILL. OVERCOME. IT. I may not know who you are, well maybe I do. Please know that I have a faith in you.

Be the main character of your life because, life does not wait for you to be okay and you can't wait for life to get better before, you decide to be happy.

Simple People

I will live in a faraway countryside.

I will have a garden bountiful of dahlias, tulips, roses, and chamomiles.

I won't run out of carrots, sweet potatoes, different kinds of peas, tomatoes, and greens.

I will set a little tea table by this garden of mine, and on it, my husband and I will eat hearty breakfasts and tasty snacks in the afternoon.

The kitchen of my lovely home will always be filled with radiant warmth, laughter, and smell of delicious food.

My husband and I would cook our favorite binagoongan, ginataang laing, sinigang na baboy, sisig, and inabraw. And when time gets good, he'll prepare me some good quality steak, Caesar salad, and Hungarian sausages.

Our children will be loved. Oh, loved so well.

We'll learn how to fix holes and arguments, just like what we're doing now.

We'll enjoy the little things in life. Like fixing up the door handle. Running up to the mall late at night to buy materials for our little one's project due tomorrow. Cleaning up after our dog or cat's vomit. Washing the dishes or folding the laundry.

And when time gets boring, we can pack up our bags and go for a little trip on the beach, on a nearby bigger city, or up in the mountains.

And when we feel like the other person is struggling, we'll hug and hold each other's hand and say... "Don't worry baby, everything's gonna be alright. You'll see."

My Life

I am Rachelle Anne D. Manalo,from Sto.Domingo Talugtug, Nueva Ecija. I was born on December 2, 2005, in Talugtug, N.E. Center.My parents' names are Jovelyn and Razel Manalo. I have two younger brothers,William and Russel.I studied at Elem. School in Sto.Domingo Tal. N.E. and now Jr. to Sr. High here at Talugtug National High School.I love watching K-dramas and Thai-dramas. Food is sinigang ang sisig. My favorite colors are pink and black. I've had a boyfriend since 2019, and we're both part of the Church of Christ.

On December 2, 2012, when I celebrated my 7th birth day, it was the day my parents parted ways. They both cheated. My mom has a relationship with my best friend's dad. However, my dad has a mistress, and now they have three childrens, Liam, Jhonchin, and Princes; they are my three siblings on my dad's side. So I grew up with my grandparents, Conchita Dumandan and Jaime Dumandan, because in 2014, my mom left us and went to Saudi Arabia to work and to provide for our daily needs. So I grew very angry with them.

I have a boyfriend, and his name is Ricomar Viadan. He's been by my side since 2019. He's not just my boyfriend; he's also my buddy, and he acts like an overly protective brother to me.That's why I'm very thankful that he came into my life. I have a lot of friends; that's why they call me a friendly girl.Some strangers always thought that I was "maldita or always mad, but when they started to get closer to me, they were always shocked at how nice I was.

December 2,2023 celebrated my 18th birthday,my mom came home just to celebrate my birthday and New year here at the Philippines.Almost of my friends attend my simple debut.I am verry thankful to God because he always protect and guide me,and for being safe of my family.Being part of Church Of Christ is a blessing for me .

Hi everyone, I know you’re wondering who I am. Not my name but who I am. First I will let you know my whole name. My name is Sheena Kristelle Domingo Lawig, but you can call me 'telle' for short. I'm the daughter of Michael Lawig and Shirley Lawig. My Father died when I was 9 years old. My mother is working abroad so my grandmother on my Father's side is the one who is taking care of me and my sister. I have an older sister named Classique Faith Lawig, I'm now 16 years of age. I'm now in 11th grade, GAS. I want to be a civil engineer someday but I am not good at mathematics. I want to be a doctor someday but I am afraid of blood. I want to be a teacher someday but I am short tempered and hate speaking in front of a lot of people. This is me, my life is such a mess, I can't understand myself too. I don't really know who I am and what I want. All I know is I love eating and playing video games. My favourite food is sisig. My favourite colour is Pink, My favourite number is 6. My favourite sport is volleyball but I'm not good at it. I also love watching romantic comedy Korean dramas. Whenever I'm hurt, My coping mechanism is cutting my own hair. I hate eating bitter gourd, I hate fake people. I am kind to people that are kind to me also but when he/she is mean to I will be mean to that person too. I am soft hearted, when someone did something wrong to me or someone hurted me, one sorry will fix anything. I hate myself for being soft hearted, because someone is taking advantage of me.

When I was a child my only problem was how to escape every time my Grandmother wanted me to sleep every afternoon. But now, I'm facing a lot of problems. Family problems, Financial problems, and school problems. But those problems moulded me to become stronger than the younger me. As I grew up I realised that growing up without a father is hard. I was just 9 years old when my father died. It didn't affect me that much when my father died, maybe because I was just 9 years old before. but as I grew up it started to affect my mental health. I started to question myself “what if my father is still alive?” “Am I better when my father is alive because there is someone that will discipline me?” “What if my family is complete''. I'm jealous of the children that have a happy and complete family. My mother is giving me money for my everyday expenses, It's hard for me to budget myself. Money for my food and for my school. I am now focusing on my studies. I want my loved ones to be proud of me someday. I'm working hard to be what I want someday. I want to change all the sacrifices my mother made for us. That’s why I'm so pressured on my academics because I want to be successful someday. I am the breadwinner of our family because my older sister already has a family. All of these problems that I have been through or I'm being through are making me stronger and matured.

You will get through everything

I know it is challenging

But you keep on believing

On the God’s perfect timing

March 5, 2023

I have always wanted to keep a journal of my life, and that desire has only grown more as I have aged. However, what we want and what we actually have the time for doesn’t always coincide. 

I have always romanticized this idea of “journaling” and felt that I would only do it justice if I had a hand written journal. But, that takes way too long and just doesn’t fit in with the lifestyle I’m currently living. As I get older though, I’ve come to realize that there are so many happy moments in the past that feel like a blur to me now. I don’t think I can rely on my memory to remember details of everyday life. But I don’t want to forget.

I am in love with my life, and I really want to treasure every moment of it, and to carefully log my days so I can remember them years and years from now. I had the loveliest day yesterday, and so there’s really no time like the present to start writing about my days. Most of my weekdays (M-F) are quite the same. I go to work, get some movement in my day (a walk/hike, yoga/pilates, or the gym), and then I have dinner and settle in for the night. I probably won’t make any journal entries on those days, unless something significant happens. This week, I do have a lot planned for the weekdays so expect more journal posts!

Yesterday was a Sunday, and it stormed the whole night before with some of the longest bouts of thunder I have experienced in my lifetime. To my surprise, I woke up to a beautiful, sunny day. I live in San Francisco, so it was still cold.. but beautiful nonetheless. 

Tim cooked us breakfast bowls, and then I spent most of the morning reading while he played Elden Ring. We planned to head out for the day around 1 PM. I had heard about the Due West craft fair at the Ferry Building, and we also read news that March 5th was the last day the Bay Bridge Lights would be lit, so it was a perfect time to blend those two plans and make a day out of it.

I really love craft fairs as they usually have two of my favorite things (candles & earrings). I managed to restrain myself at this particular craft fair, and only bought two glass, wavy straws in pink and green. I had been meaning to buy them online along with more retro  cups, but it was so much cheaper in person. Tim, as always, had already brought a reusable bag with him to carry anything I wanted to buy for the day. 

We were at the craft fair for an hour, and then walked around the shops in the Ferry Building. A new shop opened up in the building called San Francisco Trading Post that had booths showcasing products from local artists. I really loved this retro pencil sharpener that was made to look like the old ones in elementary schools that you would twist to sharpen. I thought it would make the cutest decoration on my work desk, but it was $200, so Tim said he would just make one for me. I’m going to hold him to this. 

Tim found this interesting book about the history of Yosemite. We are planning a cabin trip to Yosemite from April 28th - May 1st with a few of our friends. Tim already booked it, and it will be his first time visiting the national park so he told me he wants to be as prepared as possible. This means we’re going to rank our top sites, and top hikes so we can make a must-do list. I love dating someone who wants to be as prepared for a trip as I am. 

Afterwards, we got a late lunch at Senor Sisig. I had been so against trying it because it just felt like a bastardization of Filipino cuisine, and honestly way too overpriced. It was good, but I just don’t think I’d pay that much for it ever again. We then continued to walk down Embarcadero and had a plan to embark on the long walk from there to Coit Tower. On the way, we discovered a history walk through the buildings on the Embarcadero and got to take our time and marvel at all the details and photos from the past that we saw.

Tim has been wanting to take me to the Coit Tower for a long time because he wrote his senor thesis on the murals inside the tower. I hadn’t known that these were produced by Public Works and reflected the lives of working class Californians until recently. Once I found out, I couldn’t wait to go see them. One of the best parts of the day wasn’t the tower, but the journey going up. We went on this staircase that intersected with a private garden that people living in the neighborhood had put together. It was a little oasis in the middle of the bustling hillside. 

I couldn’t really capture the beauty of the tucked away garden, but I did take some photos of the rest of the walkway up:

Unfortunately, we made it to the tower at 5:10PM and the building closed at 5PM so we weren’t able to go inside the building to look at all the murals inside. Tim took me along the outside, and I could see glimpses of the murals throw the windows all around the building. We made a plan to come back again at another date, but I still enjoyed the whole journey there even though we’ll have to come back to get the full experience. 

We continued from Coit Tower down to Washington Square Park in North Beach. It’s an area of the city I haven’t yet had the chance to explore in its entirety, so I just felt excited to be wandering around new streets. I always love seeing all the historic architecture in this area, and learning that it used to be called San Francisco’s Latin Quarter and housed a lot of the artists in the city before becoming increasingly gentrified. Tim and I made a plan to come back and have a date at Tony’s since he has yet to eat at the restaurant. 

We got gelato, and then went to City Lights to wait for the sun to come down. We wanted to see the Bay Bridge after sunset once the lights were illuminated again, so we had to wait out the sun. I love going to bookstores with Tim because we both naturally gravitate towards non-fiction books. He’ll read a little, and so will I, and then we’ll discuss interesting historical facts we learned in the short half hour we’re browsing the bookstore. 

Afterwards, we made the walk down Broadway back to the Pier on Embarcadero to get a final glimpse at the Bay Bridge lights. 

I’m really glad I got to enjoy them for their final night with the love of my life in the city we have fallen in love in. We made our way back home after this, and then I stayed at Tim’s and cuddled for a little before heading back to my place. It’s always hard to tear myself from him because I never feel more at home or more comfortable than when I’m laying with him. I just feel like I always sleep better and I always wake up better when he’s next to me.
