#i'm uninstalling this game and never looking back lol

new home, new beginnings

[deathbypixelz]

Alright. I'm making this post because I was unpleasantly surprised to find Microsoft had forcibly downloaded an """"ai assistant"""" onto my computer (called Copilot), and because finding a site that actually told me how to kill it for good -- in clear, truly step-by-step terms -- was way harder than it needed to be.

Preface: this is only relevant if you're running Windows 11.

Here is your target:

If you see this logo on your taskbar -- or... have Edge installed on Windows 11 -- you've got Copilot. You can't delete it on its own, Microsoft has integrated it into the OS as best they can. The most you can do is disable it (instructions for which are at the very end of this post).

So... to REALLY get rid of it you need to uninstall Microsoft Edge, because it's a part of/reliant on Edge. A lot of bells and whistles of Windows are also reliant on Edge, like widgets, but I never use those. I use my PC almost exclusively for gaming, and I don't want this slimy "ai" shit on my computer. I use Firefox anyway. Edge can go die as far as I'm concerned.

Here's the actual steps, copy-pasted from a website that took me way too long to find. It also really makes my browser chug for some reason, which is why I'm copy-pasting the whole thing. If you still want to look at the site itself, put it in reader view as fast as you can (link to site).

1.) Open Microsoft Edge, type "edge://settings/help" in the address bar, and then press Enter.

2.) Click "About Microsoft Edge" at the bottom of the left-hand pane. Copy the version number at the top of the screen, under Microsoft Edge.

3.) Press Windows Key + S to open Windows Search.

4.) Type "Command Prompt", right-click the result, and then select "Run as Administrator".

5.) The User Account Control (UAC) prompt will appear. Click "Yes".

6.) Navigate to Edge’s “Installer” directory by using the cd command. Depending on which directory your Command Prompt opens in by default, you may need to use the "cd .." command to go back a level or two.

Once ready, run this command:

cd “Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\Version Number\Installer”

Replace "Version Number" with your actual version number copied earlier.

7.) Next, run this command to uninstall Microsoft Edge:

setup –uninstall –force-uninstall –system-level

((It will look like nothing happened! Don't worry!))

8.) Restart your PC for the changes to take place.

((HOWEVER, Windows will try to reinstall it the next time your PC updates (or whenever it feels like it lol) so there's a second half to this))

1.) Press Windows Key + R to open Run.

2.) Type "regedit" in the text box and click OK to open the Registry Editor.

3.) The User Account Control (UAC) prompt will appear. Click "Yes".

4.) In the Registry Editor, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES\SOFTWARE\Microsoft.

5.) Right-click the "Microsoft" folder, hover your cursor over "New", and then select "Key".

6.) Rename the new Key to "EdgeUpdate".

7.) Right-click EdgeUpdate, hover your cursor over "New", and then select "DWORD (32-bit) Value".

8.) Right-click the new value, which is currently named "New Value #1".

9.) Select "Rename" from the context menu.

10.) Rename the value to "DoNotUpdateToEdgeWithChromium".

11.) Right-click the newly-named DoNotUpdateToEdgeWithChromium value and select "Modify" from the context menu.

12.) The Edit DWORD (32-bit) Value window will appear. Change the Value data to "1" and then click OK.

((You are now free. If you ever run into a really serious, unavoidable issue with your OS that's clearly a result of Edge being gone, you can redownload it like a regular app. But you should be fine.))

((And, if for some reason you want still want Edge around but just want the copilot thing gone, here's what you do:

The command, for ease of copy-pasting: reg add HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot /v TurnOffWindowsCopilot /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

You can't actually truly delete Copilot (without deleting Edge), only disable it. And as the reply says, you do have to do this every time you turn the computer on. I haven't tested that myself, but I believe it. I assume/hope that excludes just waking the computer up after it goes to sleep, but I don't know for sure.))

SPOILERS for Detroit: Become Human

I finished my first playthrough and I've definitely got to play it again but, for right now, I'm just happy for these two achievements:

Oh man, if you love a good found family trope, may I present to you...

...Kara, Alice and Luther. My sweet little found family, ZOMG. I ain't even gonna lie to you. I used a guide so that I'd be able to make ~sure~ that none of them died. I was NOT losing Kara, Alice or Luther (Luther in particular seems super-duper in jeopardy of getting killed a lot😭😭😭).

My perfect little android family, FTW! 💖💖💖

Also, Luther's voice actor is Evan Parke who's also listed as Luther's likeness and mocap actor.

But, my STARS, Luther looks like Bentley Kalu (Vannak, Halo the series) to me! Here's some more Luther:

And here's Vannak...

What do you think? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Anyway, continuing on... I knew I'd love Connor and Hank and I really did.

The entire buddy cop feels, the fact that we all know I'm a HUGE Clancy Brown fan, and the fact that Connor is a cutie-pie meant I was bound to love them!

I thought I'd probably ship Markus/North and I did.

But I also could eeeeeeasily be persuaded to some Markus/Simon.

Annnnnd I loved Chloe from the start. Yeah, I sat here and talked back to her in the menu through the whole game and I'm not even sorry, lol!

And then I let her go at the end.

And then I cried, 'cause I'm a softie like that. 🤷‍♀️😉 She won't be in the menu any further unless you take the option for a replacement you'll get after doing another full playthrough but the Chloe you get then will never do the same sort of commentary on your gameplay. Plus, to me that would void the whole lesson of the game, that you've chosen that the androids deserve to be free. That was really quite a brilliant move the game pulls on you, IMO, that making that decision is irreversible. Unless, you know, you uninstall the game, delete your saves and start all of the way over. 😉

But no. I loved having her there with me but I set her free and free in my game she shall be. *sniffle*

Just some off-the-cuff thoughts since I finished it tonight and was all up in my feels. 😭😍😉💖

@themaresnest-dumblr replied to your post “It's Finally Winter Break! I'm FREE!”:

Okay, the first question is tell us all about the computer, the second is what sodding processor does it use that will allow you to play Sims 3? Like the graphic btw, it looks like a They Might Be Giants video.

​I actually haven't been able to install/play TS3 at ALL! I've never had a problem running TS3 before, so this sucks!

At first I thought it was the EA App effing up--I had it install the base game and all the EPs at once, but that didn't work, so I figured OK, let me uninstall everything and ONLY install the base game. That FINALLY got the TS3 Folder to appear in Documents, and the Launcher finally loaded. But every time I click Play, it instantly crashes back to the EA App. I have zero mods or Store CC installed or anything. And the "Repair" button on the EA App appears to do EFF ALL, so.... *whimpers*

I never had a laptop with Nvidia and different V-RAM/GPU components, so I'm a fish out of water as far as specs go with this new PC, since my dinosaurs ran TS3 just fine, LOL. Before this I was on a Win10 8GB Dell laptop (2017-2023), and before that I was on a 4GB Vista HP laptop (2009-2017).

This new laptop is a Win11 Asus--it runs Baldur's Gate 3 (barely, LOL, even my Steam Deck is crying), so I have no clue why it can't run TS3:

Processor 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900H, 2600 Mhz, 14 Core(s), 20 Logical Processor(s). Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 6GB Laptop GPU.

I made an Error Report that I sent to EA, so hopefully they tell me something, otherwise I'm screwed.

[sarasa-cat]

Wow. The fight I had with EA on my gaming machine was not a fun one. Suddenly it just crapped out and made it look like Steam didn't know where my bioware games were. Anyhow. Probably solved after uninstalling, reinstalling, and updating the EA hell.

So, let's see. Finished differentiating between my Surana and Amell, got both of them full mapped out in DA Keep (and partly mapped out in the mega spreadsheet), generated end-game saves for both of them using the gibbed.savegenerator on PC. Got DA2 running my PC, created the appropriate Hawkes (mage Mari in lawful-scheming Neria Surana's world; warrior Vespertine in dumpsterfire chaos agent Keres Amell's world). Saved. Turned on the Steam Deck. Was able to access both of them and play a few minutes in on each. Whoo-HOO!

My two Hawkes are ready for yet another of many runs through that game.

Fwiw, not sure if I will ever fully replay Neria's game in DAO+DLCs because she's a competitionist character and that is a lot time. I do want to (re)play and finish Keres one of these days.

As for warrior Vespertine Hawke -- she's someone who has existed only on the sidelines while in fanfic that required a world state with Bethany alive. I have headcanon for her but have never gotten around to actually playing her game past the first couple of hours of game time. Haven't decided if I want to pre-map out her path through the quests or, alternative, just let things happen (knowing some of the rough guidelines already via existing headcanon).

SO. Given that I know the world that Neria+Mari live in (the History of Lies world), my Dragon Age Keep is all set for the Merrillquisition. May as well start there for DAI.

Meanwhile, DA2 is pretty quick to play so when I'm done with Vespertine's play through, I can make any final tweaks on my Keres+Vespertine canon in DA Keep and my epic spreadsheet before potentially replaying and completionist-finishing my Trevelyan mage (whom I initially played many years back, but left a lot of things unfinished). I really like my Trevelyan a lot and had meant to write fanfic for her but ... life. lol. Yeah.

So... all that is left is getting mods (re)installed on PC and installed (probably with a minor fight) on Steamdeck and all is good to go.

And other to do: Revive my DA sideblogs and make character pages, canon summaries, etc., because ... escapism. I need it. For reasons.

[alltimefail-sims]

I’m the simmer which EA account got banned.

Yes the only exception is that it’s because of the cc. Because all my sims have a lot of cc. I’m very sad I spent a lot of time creating them….

So, if I'm understanding correctly, you can still go into your game and play, but you just can't post sims on the gallery? Or are you completely locked out of your EA account and can't even play your game at all?

Read More ↓

I'm happy to help! Usually they send a warning before outright banning, did you receive any warnings to your EA account prior to being banned? You can login into your EA account online and look under "MY BAN HISTORY." This should tell you when you were banned and give you the option to dispute the ban. Here's a Reddit thread I found while looking into your problem that shows some screenshots that illustrate what I'm talking about.

That's why I personally don't upload anything that isn't "Vanilla" to the gallery if I can help it. There have been some issues in the past with inappropriate and outright racist content, and the gallery has undergone major changes in the last couple months in an attempt to avoid this. My guess is that whatever filter/algorithm they're using to find inappropriate content might have a harder time with sims that use a lot of custom content, and it might be more privy to flagging those, unfortunately. It sucks, but it's the sims team lol. They are bad at fixing problems, but very good at making them. The gallery has always had its issues and, especially if you're using cc, it can be very unreliable IMO. That's why if you're creating sims with the intent/hopes to share them, I really recommend making a Simblr and sharing your sims on here by uploading them to a free host like Google Drive, Mediafire, Patreon, OneDrive, etc. Like I said, I'm happy to create a tutorial for that if you're curious! I'm not tech savvy, but I upload sims on here all the time and haven't had any issues with my methods - it's not as complicated as you'd think once you get the hang of it, and you don't run into issues that come from the gallery.

and YES, absolutely just save your unfinished sims to your library. I have 5 copies of "Vatores - In Progress" in my library right now lmao because I know this game is always playing around in the worst way and I don't want to lose my sims or my progress. I only ever save sims and builds that use CC to my personal library, never on the gallery, and then I use Tray Importer to grab their tray files and cc to share them. It's actually easy-peasy!

You are not stupid! I totally get your thought process with the spawning. That is a pain and there's no perfect solution to that other than just deleting the unfinished townie if they happen to generate in your game.

SUPER IMPORTANT QUESTION: you still have your game installed and therefore have access to your Sims 4 folder, right? If so, you can back up your tray and saves that way you don't lose anything.

I'm using a Windows computer, so I'm sorry if you're using a MAC... I don't know much about their Operating System. For me I can do this by simply copying both folders and storing them in a folder on my desktop, but you can even use a separate flash drive if you prefer.

I go to Documents -> Electronic Arts -> The Sims 4. You use mods, so you're probably very familiar with this but here's a screenshot just in case:

The two folders I have highlighted - saves and tray - you should keep backups of before you update your game, put new mods in your game, etc. because if something gets corrupted, you'll always be able to save the important stuff if you have to uninstall your game, move to a new PC, and etc.

That's what my folder looks like on my desktop - the last copy I made of my tray and saves was on October 17th.

That's the inside of the folder.

Important note while we are here: you can also delete anything inside the cachestr folder (but not the folder itself), anything inside the onlinethumbnailcache folder (but not the folder itself), the avatarcache.package file, and the localthumbcache.package file. Especially do this after removing any mods or cc from your game!

If you can still go into your game and access your sims in the gallery at any capacity, you should go ahead and save your favorite sims to your library. You can do this by going into CAS, adding them to a new household, and saving them like I showed you in the last post. Save your game and then, if you haven't backed everything up before, I would recommend doing that.

If you can't access your gallery at all any more, with the exception of your library, but some of the sims/households you liked have spawned in your game, you can also add them to your library by editing their household from the neighborhood bin. Just open them in CAS and save them to your library the same way you would a totally new sim. This way, even if you may not be able to access everything you've uploaded to the gallery, you might still be able to salvage some sims this way.

Also, if you made a family in CAS and then moved them into a house right after, good news - a copy of them is already saved in your library! So there's definitely some hope?

Lastly, I believe this was also you:

I don't know what mod this could be, but I've seen people complaining about this issue in the past. I've never personally ran into this issue, but it's likely a script mod. Hard to say: I don't know what cc and mods you have in your game. You might just need to clean out your mods and CC folder until your find the culprit (50/50 method). If you don't have everything organized into subfolders, this would be the perfect opportunity to do that. I'll do some digging though, I'm sorry I can't be more helpeful with this.

Please don't feel stupid or feel bad for asking for help. I'm happy to help you as much as I can. That's what I'm here for! I had to learn a lot of this on my own, so if I can help someone else, that makes me happy! Hopefully there is something in here that works out for you. I'll be sending good luck your way!! 🖤

yandere self-aware cookie run kingdom x reader

tw: yandere, worrying behaviour but no big deal as this is the introductory part.

i'm not sure if anyone has already written this au, but this idea just came to me after playing crk lol

PART i

you were just an ordinary, average person who was bored on a saturday.

so you decided to download a game.

why not?

so you looked bored at your phone, looking for recommendations of games with nice graphics for free.

you started scrolling through all the possible apps on the podium, one by one.

crap.

everything was boring and unoriginal, you thought bitterly, tightening your grip on your phone.

you guess you'll have to go back to browsing the posts.

after the defeat you just sighed dully and started staring at the wall.

that was it,

until you got a notification. you didn't even care if it was a storm alert or maybe a kettle offer. you took the phone in your hand once again and, excited by something new, started reading.

it was a reply to your youtube comment.

@username you should try cookie run kingdom!!! it's totally different to genshin, you literally get so much stuff for free it's worth playing/ just be careful for simping for cookies lol

you wrinkle your eyebrows, wondering. cookie.... run? never heard of it. but the offer of free stuff and cookies is tempting.

but you're not going to start simp for any cookies anyway.

right?

having played for over three weeks, it's fair to say you've really become addicted to this game. this short comment really described it all.

simp.

you may be a simp.

but you found out that in this fandom it's... kind of normal.

although despite everything, there are also flaws in this game that scare you to your core. well, nothing is perfect, right?

you don't know how, but you already have literally all the characters without spending any money on it.

you thought it was normal, until you found out from the community that it really wasn't. a lot of people envied you, although there were some who felt sorry for you.

you didn't know why.

back in the day, you'd often catch the cookies looking at you. and this would be normal, but sometimes it lasts for a few minutes, not a few seconds.

sometimes you also hear strange phrases said by them on the home screen or little interactions like waving or smiling.

but no one has ever had this, except you of course.

for the next week you ignored it, playing and trying to enjoy it as if nothing ever happened.

until, one day, you walked in and saw a hand and a face on the screen.

a hand and a face of pure vanilla.

you literally threw your phone to the floor in fear when it started to say something and move.

this is it. you uninstall it now.

so after a while you slowly pick up your phone, turn off the app and with a trembling finger click 'uninstall'.

you can't uninstall the app.

frustrated by the stupid on-screen notification, you click the same thing dozens more times, with the same result.

what the hell?

you stare at your phone in silence, blinking your eyes. shit device.

i'll just go in there one more time, maybe it's already gone, yeah.

after you enter, there is still a hand stretched out towards you while other characters in the background have their gaze directed at you. you are so terrified by this that you don't even react anymore.

a message appears.

tap the screen with your finger to uninstall the application.

... what a strange notification. maybe it's from the game itself, not the system?

you shrug your shoulders, what do you have to lose? your freedom.

you touch your finger to the screen and snort without seeing any reaction.

apparently you are too paranoid-

and suddenly a bright, blinding light covers your vision. you try to bring your hands up to cover your eyes, but to no avail.

you feel as if something is pulling you down harder and harder. you try to move away as far as possible, but strangely you are still standing there.

so somehow now-

wait.

oh fuck,

does that count as kidnapping?

RIP Tumblr

Everyone in here saying goodbye sharing memories only reminds of the times I gathered with friends inside an online games on the last days before they shut down the servers. This is practically what Tumblr is doing with the policy change, in one shot they are about to murder a really big chunk of its community lol. Honestly I know that at least for me, the NSFW adult content is literally the only reason I even know about this app.

Most of the people that follow me are fake bots and I never really connected that well with the few followers that are real so after the policy update, I'm going to uninstall this app.

Because If I wanted to look at SFW and PG watered down bull shit or just plain fan art, I would just go back to DIVIANTART!

My IDOLISH7 Story

Hello. This is a little embrassing to reveal myself. It might be boring for you to read it. But can't help it. I wanna share my story. And also I would like to have a friend whom I can ask all about Idolish7 game and tell freely all about Idolish7.

Actually I don't like Idol series.Still don't like them now except Idolish7. Cuz they are always singing in one minute per one episode and have always simple background. They way they treat their partners in group are way too casual. I watched my first idol anime, Love Live School Idol project. They aren't bad. I like their songs cuz I'm playing their game about 8 months ago. I don't like Muse's anime cuz like I said, they're way too friendly each other. In reality, every Idol person can't be friendly each other like them. They might have their own story, own personalities etc. Maybe the big fact I can't watch them is cuz I'm a girl. Lol😂😂😂Since I don't ship Yuri, that maybe the case.

I fell in love with all Idolish7 characters from fanart in pixiv. At first glance, I'm like ''Whoa! they are so cute. I wonder who they are'' And then, Tsumugi is surrounded by Ainana, Trigger and Re:vale. So, I thought that might be Reverse Harem series. So I give up to find their names but I saved one of those fanart and showed it to my friend. She got wrong Riku with the boy from Dream festival and said they were from Dream festival. So I watched Dream festival anime Ep 1 and know that they aren't from DF. So I give up again and play Love Live. Several days later, before I knew it, my mind and soul are interested in them and so, I started searching their names again. And then I found Anidol and Idolish7 games. I though Anidol might be tye one I'm looking for. So I downloaded the game and start playing for half an hour. I was wrong again. So I uninstall that and downloaded I7, the real one. (Glad I got the real one. Lol😂😂) I started playing Idolish7 mobile Rhythm game in October, 2017. When I started playing, I uninstalled three times. Like iit's always downloading, the stories need to download again and again to read it, can't touch any Rhytm icon cuz they're falling too fast, blah blah. But I'm bored with Love Live game. So, I thought I will try I7 seriously this time. Then, I downloaded all data they need and started playing MonGen,reading I7 story Part 1. At first, I feel bored reading them. When Triigger appeared on Screen and Secret Night songs can be played. I fell in love with Trigger. To get new songs, I have to read all stories and clear all challenges. It's become more interesting. Nor because of all the songs are amazing but because the stories are interesting too. I deeply touched and fell in love with them. Especially the stories, I have never seen that dramatic Idol series. I watched the other Idol series like High School Star musical, TsukiUta, B-project and any other things. They never made me feel excited and want to know more. But I7 is different. They can make the one who is really fussy about all idol genre be their passionate fan, me. I do love them now.Really. 😍😍😍 Scouting them to be idol is a little sudden though ( I mean in my home country, all debuted idol come from singing contests) but they are fine just the way they're now. To become debuted as 7 men together, yhey worked hard steps by steps. It's really want to support them more and more. I feel like I wanna explode when I've read about So-chan going back to home and Tamaki is framed. Momo got arrested by Ryo and Yuki's on fire to look for him. I feel really anxious. I really can't get what will happen next. But that makes I7 more interesting and I love it. I'm still exciting abiut what comes next in Part 4 and all new songs. I'm lookumg forward to their firsr live too. Hope my story isn't too complicated to understand. Since english is my second language, I'm not confident about spelling and grammar.

I want to have a friend who loves Idolish7 more than me and want to have a fun time by tellimg each other our stories. If you haven't watched Idolish7 Anime, I suggest you to watch it. It will never get you bored and want to know more. After you become more passionate, you can play Rhythm game too. It won't make your day so boring.

Thanks for giving your precious time reading this.

One week story

So, yesterday (March 28) I've decided to uninstall my IG and Twitter and deactivated my FB so that I could focus on the whole week (March 28,2021 - April 4,2021). This is how it goesssss...

MONDAY

Today is also the start of ECQ 2.0. we had a curfew at 6PM. I am overjoyed when I heard about the curfew because that means we can go home early. But guess what? I got home at 6:30 because customers suddenly rush at our store before 6. And then we have to eat dinner. Since I'm writing tonight, no one catch us lol. But tonight it is so peaceful and quiet! I am done with my devo then I excercised and took a bath. And then while writing, I just finished writing news in Korean and going to translate it, when something comes to my mind. This aha moment came when I want to listen to IU's songs, but girllll! Her voice is too high and I can't sing her song, LOL. I have to listen and read the lyrics so that I can practice my speech. Then I realized, why don't I listen to Korean worship songs?! I opened my Spotify and saw that SuJu (I'm a fan hahah) has a worship song!!! And I got across to this Psalm 23 song (last week I memorized the chapter so I thought I could record because I know what it says). I have to remind myself that I am a kindergarten at this moment while learning Korean hehe.

This is how peaceful the night is, but before 8, power was interrupted, but thankfully it came back after 20 minutes.

TUESDAY

Day 2 naaaa. Okay magtatagalog na lang ako, sumasakit na rin ulo ko mag-English hahahah.

Okay, tonight is SOL day. And your ate is late na naman pero they are still waiting, unlike naman sa 20-25mins. na late every Tuesday. Salamat curfew, nakasali pa ako sa pa-games. What I learned tonight is that thankful ako kay Lord sa life ng mga leaders ko. Sa patience na ibinigay nila sa akin so that I can grow sa faith ko kay Lord.

Just to share what am I reading now

Super big help sa akin nito. Ang dami kong natutunan.

After the training, I exercised and drank tea. Yes, drinking tea is an achievement everyday. I bought that last year pero hindi ko pa rin nauubos! Grabe tapos may Twinnings pa ako na lasang sampaguita. Gusto ko na silang maubos para makabalik na ako sa Lipton huhu. Ayun na nga, tonight kasi a friend messaged me sa viber, she shared some post about dreams na nawala. So, while taking a bath, bigla kong naisip na, bakit jindi kami mag-Bible study?!! I need that also, and she needs it. I opened to her this idea. And while typing this, nag-uusap na kami sa time kung kelan namin gagawin 'yun. Yehey!

Anywaysssss, that's it. 10PM na at hindi pa ako nakakapag-aral hahaha. Kaya paaalam na muna. Bukas namannn mga beshy.

P.S. nagdisconnect ako sa socmed pero dito ko naman nilipat distraction ko hahahah.

WEDNESDAY

My spirit is well fed today, that's why I'm just going to share my learning today.

On our morning prayer, God reminded me that He never wastes season. All of what's happening in my life are part of His plan. And ngayon ko na lang din narerealize yun, even my bad decisions He made it for my good.

Nanuod ako ng vlog ni ToniG kanina. I am super inspired sa faith ng girl na'to. Sabi nga ni Toni na nagcocomplain tayo sa little thing in our life pero may ibang tao na matindi ang battles na pinagdadaanan.

Day 28. This book was actually given to me by my friend/officemate. Alam ko nabasa ko na 'to pero ngayon ko lang siya naintindihan. Maybe that time wala talaga yung heart ko to seek God. But I was reminded that OK lang na slowly (but strongly) yung pag-journey ko sa life. Dagdagan pa ng Bible reading ko in the book of John

Grabe naman yung YOU WILL HAVE TO SUFFER. Normal naman pala sa life yun. Pero may PERO! But cheer up! daw because Jesus defeated the world. Thank you Lord for the assurance! We need this today sa gitna ng chaos ng mundo.

Lastly, on my devo another translation said sa Ecc. 10:10 'If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed."

I was reminded na hindi ko lang dapat laging gamitin yung strength ko but ALWAYS seek wisdom from God. Kailangang ko ring galingan sa lahat ng ginagawa ko, and I must value the time that God has given me.

Lastly na talagaaaa hahahah. Napag-alaman ko na may karibal pala ako kay Bogummy 😭 hahahaha. Kidding aside, I'm so happy meeting new people despite the pandemic. And greatest thing I learned today is that kaya siguro I'm on 'spiritual high' ( yung tipong I'm happy and filled with God's word at this time) kasi God wants to use me para sa mga kaibigan ko who are losing hope.

Hay Lord, feel me with Your wisdom and continually to speak to me.

파이팅!

THURSDAY

April 1. How I wish at the end of the day may magsasabi ng joke lang ang lahat. Coming home last night, I excercised agad, then I read Day 29 sa book na binabasa ko, and 2 chapters in the book of John.

Supposedly after that I'll do my personal devo. But before, nag-set pa ko ng to-list for today because our store is closed.

So my to-do list is consists of attending morning prayer, reviewing Korean and memorizing words, and playing my Kalimba. Last night, I'm planning to write some lessons rin. Didn't update here the same day (since I'm writing this on a Friday morning) because something happened.

So back before I'm going to do my devo, I checked my messenger/viber and mydays of my friends. Then I saw nga yung myday ng one of my ates in church. I PM'd her, ate ano ibig sabihin nun? Because she said "You will be miss." Although sa totoo lang alam ko na yung ibig sabihin nun but I have this in denial stage pa na, hindi ko maintindihan pero naiintindihan ko, that kind of thing. I activated my FB just to confirm, and even called her. And yes, it is really true.

Last Saturday, just want to remind myself na, Hebrews 12 kept on popping in my minds. It's says there na therefore we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses.... Naisip ko lang siya nun because of the people around me na, oo nga Lord, I look up to them also kasi nakikita how You worked and still working in their life, and because of their faith to You mas nag-hohope din ako at mas lumalakas. Then I remembered a friend dear to who passed away early, na still one of the heartbreaks ko, I still remember that I dreamed of her the night before she died and waking up from the text messages na wala na siya. Of course I'm sad, but looking at her life and seeing her faith to God despite she's been gone through in life na masasabi ko na, she's one of the great clouds of witnesses in my life pala.

Last night, though nung pandemic ko lang nakita si kuya pero kapag sa time nakikita ko siya sa CO natutuwa yung heart ko sa relationship ng bawat isa. Even yung mga kulit moments nila. I can't imagine the grief of those people that are close to him. Na kung ako nga affected, pano pa sila? And, as I mention earlier, I activated my FB and upon scrolling a former officemate just passed away rin, I was shocked, that time nagsi-sink sa akin na Lord hindi ko alam talaga what will happen to me, kung kelan Niyo ba ako kukunin?

What I said to Lee last night (we've talked for 4hrs, 3:30AM na ako natulog) na gusto ko kapag ako namatay masasabi niyo na, "Ay yan si Bevz nagawa niya yung purpose niya dito" and they would be comforted to the fact na I'm with God, and I'm home.

FRIDAY

Since 3:30 na ako nakatulog kagabi, I still set an alarm na 5:30 to attend MP. Napatay ko pala yung alarm ko and bigla na lang akong nagising ng quarter to 5. Mag-M-MP nga pala ako. Patapos na rin 'yung word nung naka-join ako. After prayer, Bishop spoke.haaaayyyy 😭😭😭😭😭😢💔💔💔💔💔💔💔. (No words)
