“Ryo, sure ka ba, okay lang ‘tong suot ko?” I ask for the nth time, checking myself in the mirror.

We’re going to meet his parents today and i have never felt more conscious, let alone anxious in my entire life. My job requires for me to converse with various people and I never once had emotions like this when doing so.

Ryo walks up to me and from the back, he wraps his arms around my waist planting a kiss on the crown of my head. “You look beautiful, my love.”

“What about my outfit, sa tingin mo, hindi ba sobra o kulang?” Aligaga kong tanong dito.

“It’s just right, my love.” He answers with no hesitation.

Realizing there was no benefit in me overthinking things, I took his word for it and we finally got to leave our apartment.

“Ah, my son was right, you are a gorgeous young woman, Itsumi.” Nakangiting sambit ng nanay ni Ryomen matapos akong mag-mano rito.

Ngumiti naman ako pabalik, “Thank you po, tita! Pero mas maganda po kayo, alam ko na kung kanino nag-mana si Ryo.”

“Naku!” Lumingon ito sa asawa. “Narinig mo ba ‘yon, mahal? Sa akin daw namana ng anak natin ang kagwapuhan niya.” Pag-bibiro nito.

“Hindi naman ako tatanggi ro’n, mahal.” Sagot naman ng tatay ni Ryomen.

Naramdaman ko naman ang pag-iinit ng mukha ko nang mapagtanto ko ang aking sinabi.

“Lagot ka,” Pag-singit ni Ryo sa gilid ko. “Hindi ka na papasa kay papa niyan.” Halata sa kanyang boses ang pang-aasar.

Pinalo naman ito sa balikat ng kanyang nanay at pinagsabihan, “Baka maniwala si Sumi. ‘Wag mong binibiro ng gano’n.”

Then dinner time came and it was nowhere near what I expected it to be. Magaan ang pakiramdam ko na makipagusap sa mga magulang ni Ryo. Palabiro ang kaniyang tatay at ang kaniyang nanay naman ay sinasabayan din ito. We shared heartfelt laughs, talked about our plans, dreams, and shared our values. Surprisingly, his parents and I have so much in common — so much more than my own.

My heart felt so full and joyous.

It was on the way home that I realized Ryo was reared in a secure household. Looking back, maybe it was the reason why he left and didn’t force anything between us—why he just let time and fate bring us together once more.

“Honestly,” Pag-uumpisa ko. “Kung ayaw mong makaharap si dad ulit, I respect that. We don’t have to go.”

Bahagya itong tumawa. “Bakit naman ako aayaw na harapin si tito?”

“Tito agad?” Tinignan ko ito ng may panghuhusga.

Natawa itong muli sa reaksyon ko. “What, does he prefer to be called sir or gusto mo, dad na lang din itawag ko?”

I cringe at the thought of Ryomen getting shut off in an instant if he had called my father dad on their first meeting in a long time.

“I can handle your father, Sumi.” He says, grabbing my hand as he guides us out of the apartment.

The ambiance from when we had dinner with the Sukunas compared to now differs greatly. This one makes you want to rip your head off, whereas the other was carefree. Moreover, I’m not entirely sure if having both of my parents here is good or bad. Though, on the bright side, this is the first time in a long time I’ve seen my divorced parents together.

“You’re that guy my daughter dated before, am I right? Iyong galing sa mababang pamilya.” Walang emosyong sambit ng tatay ko.

“Dad!” Pag-protesta ko rito.

Naramdaman ko ang kamay ni Ryo sa aking hita at marahan niyang hinaplos ito na para bang ipinapahiwatig sa akin na ‘wag akong masyadong mag-alala sa sitwasyon.

“You weren’t born a chairman. Naging empleyado ka rin na may mababang pwesto.” Pag-sumbat naman ng aking nanay.

I am already regretting even planning this dinner. Sana ay hindi na lang kami tumuloy.

“Yes, sir. I was that guy.” Sagot ni Ryomen sa tanong ni dad.

I gave him a glare, but he only squeezed my thigh, maybe as an attempt to reassure me that it’s all going to be fine.

“Was?” Natatawang tanong ni dad. “Bakit, marami ka na bang naabot sa loob ng maikling panahon?”

Kumukulo na ang dugo ko sa inis habang kalmado pa rin si Ryo.

“I believe so.” Sagot ni Ryomen. “I finished both of my undergraduate and graduate degree with latin honors. I was a top-notcher in the bar exam, and I work at a well-known law firm now.”

My dad snickered, “Face me again when you’ve built your reputation as a lawyer, or not. I know that field is very saturated.”

“I am building it at the moment, sir.” Ryomen smiles. “I specialize in corporate law and have won numerous lawsuits now. If you need my help, don’t hesitate to call. I heard your company is having troubles right now.” There was a hint of mockery in his voice.

Dad was left speechless and moments after, the silence was overrun with my mom’s mocking chuckle.

“Kid,” she turned to Ryomen. “I liked you before and I like you even better now. Good thing you two got back together.”

“Thank you, ma’am.” He smiled.

Mom waves her hand as if telling him off. “Enough with the ma’am. You can call me tita, or mom, but I prefer mom.”

Ryomen gave an amused chuckle before turning to me and winked. He leaned in closer to me and whispered, “What do you say, did I do a good job, princess?”

Naramdaman ko ang init ng aking mga pisngi.

“Kids,” Mom calls and we both face her. “Do you want to eat somewhere else? Nakakawala kasi ng appetite ‘yong atmosphere dito. Maybe we could go shopping, too.”

Pagkasabi niya noon ay dali-daling tumayo si dad at padabog na lumabas sa private dining area.

“So, kailan ang kasal?” Mom asked.

We ended up not having to change restaurants. Nevertheless, mom still insisted on going shopping and so we did, for two more hours. The night started out disastrous, but I’m thankful that at least Ryomen could get along with my mother.

“Bakit ‘di ka man lang nag-react do’n sa tanong ng nanay ko tungkol sa kasal?” Tanong ko kay Ryomen na ngayon ay nakaupo sa couch.

“I did, I smiled.” Simpleng sagot nito habang inaalis ang mga bitones ng kanyang damit.

Umupo ako sa kanyang tabi, “No, I mean, why didn’t you protest?”

Huminto ito sa kanyang ginagawa at tinignan ako na para bang may mali sa aking sinabi. “Protest?”

Tumango ako.

“Baby,” he turned to me, “there is no other ending to this than us getting married. Why would I protest? I intend to marry you, Sumi.”

“Isn’t it too early for you? You’re still starting on your career. Marriage is way different than dating.”

Ryomen examines me with a sincere gaze. “I’m not going to leave you. Hindi lahat ng marriage nasisira, Sumi.”

I look down, feeling a bit disappointed in myself for projecting unto him. “I know. Sorry.”

He scooted closer to me tilting my chin up before leaning in to kiss my cheek, “I’m going to marry you,” then my neck, “build a family with you,” then my lips, “all while loving you endlessly, my love.”

“You’re safe with me, Sumi.” He says before kissing me again, this time with more passion, as if it were full of love, hunger, and desire.

It wasn't long before my back touched the velvety feel of the sofa, and the sound of our moans and lips colliding together as he relentlessly professed his love for me faded into the night.

rant

nagmakaawa ako nun sa nanay ko na kapag manghihingi siya ng pera sakin, kamustahin niya man lang muna ako kahit labag sa loob niya kasi kailangan kong maramdaman na despite our differences, may nanay pa din ako na matatakbuhan when i feel like the world conspired against me. pero wala talaga, magchachat lang kapag manghihingi ng pera. hindi ako nag-eexist pag di niya ako kailangan. ang sakit lang kasi kahit anong gawin ko or sabihin ko, ako pa din ang lalabas na masama. gusto ko lang naman maramdaman na may nanay ako di ba, kahit ayun man lang. si lord talaga di mo maintindihan e, malas na nga sa tatay tapos malas pa sa nanay. tapos may ate pa na nanakawin identity mo para sa lending apps, lagi na lang lowbat phone ko dahil sa collection calls. pinanganak ba ako para maghirap? shuta. gusto ko lang ilabas kasi para akong nilalason, may work pa naman mamaya. ayun lang.

[blue-thief]

half-filipino shidou headcanons bc he's half-filipino to me until canon says otherwise

"chinoy ka ba?" ("are you chinoy?" chinese + pinoy/filipino = chinoy)

"hindi. jinoy ako 👖😜" ("no. i'm jinoy" idk if there's an actual term for japanese + filipino but yeah)

"PAANO KA NAGASALITA NG EMOJI????" ("HOW ARE YOU SPEAKING EMOJI????")

(if i made any mistakes it's cuz i'm whitewashed asf)

thought it was funny asf when tatsuki fujimoto pretended to be filipino

no one is safe from "knock-knock/who's there?/ako maba/ako maba who?" jokes ("ako maba who" sounds like "ako mabaho" which means "i stink")

he taught charles how to play nanay-tatay (the filipino equivalent of patty cake i guess???)

demands rin calls him "kuya" (literally translates to "older brother" but in this context it would be equivalent to hua cheng calling xie lian "gege" in heaven official's blessing)

shidou: have you ever had puto before?

sae: WHAT

("puto"/"puta" is spanish for "whore". puto is a filipino steam rice (cup)cake though. we do use "puta" but it's usually used in the phrase "putang ina mo"/"tangina mo"/"tangina". the literal translation is "your mom is a whore", but it's basically a catch-all swear word. you can use it for "fuck", "son of a bitch", "bitch", "motherfucker", etc)

shidou visited sae in spain once and stole a bunch of stuff as "revenge" for colonization

when he commits petty crimes in japan he makes the same excuse

he will make the same excuse if he ever goes to the USA

his grandparents on his mom and dad's side don't get along because. yeah

he terrorizes the italians by listing off the recipe for filipino spaghetti

"yeah, we use brown sugar, banana ketchup, hotdogs-"

the ubers get obliterated on the spot

oc interview: ✨✨vance✨✨

thank you to @swearingcactus AND @glitchinginthegarden AND!! @v-eats-bugs for tagging me !! finally got to sit down and answer this :3

let's hit it !

🧡 Name?

"Just call me V."

his first chosen name was penn, but he started going by vance after his medical transition. he doesn't give it out freely bc that was the name arasaka knew him by; he doesn't mention his surname, either, bc it's a pretty prominent one with much of its members still working for the megacorp in question.

🧡 Nickname?

"...Well, last I checked, 's still V."

apart from "mano" from jackie, vance doesn't have much in terms of nicknames. his old netrunning handle was N3tH0und (net hound); it's a retired username that's been largely scrubbed from the net, but sometimes he signs his major hacks with it just to fuck with people. it's a ghost's name, and it's fun to haunt the net only when he knows for certain that it can't be traced back to him.

🧡 Gender?

"Guy! Never been asked that outright before."

🧡 Star sign?

"'s not my scene--can't say I know much about it--but Misty's got me down as a Cancer, whatever that means. Says that's probably why I'm, er, so 'intuitive', as she called it. You ask me, that's just the merc work--bein' able to read a room, that is."

i first drew vance on july 7, 2023, so i consider that his birthday. like vance, i have no idea how being a cancer applies to him, but google says cancers are loyal, domestically inclined, and committed to their loved ones, so that sounds about right!

🧡 Height?

"Six flat. Johnny's pretty sure I'm taller than 'im...but he's slouchin' all the time, so don't think he's got a say in it."

🧡 Orientation?

"Usually go for other guys. But I guess the definition of that is pretty loose these days, 'specially in NC, huh. The hell does it matter to me if you've got certain...parts. If you're a guy, you're a guy, and if you're down, I'm down, y'know?"

vance is a gay man with a preference for masculine-identifying individuals. like he said, if you identify as a "guy" in any form, then that's good enough for him. he's not one to talk about having "appropriate" parts, and he thinks it's dumb that they're gendered in the first place. he's not usually looking for anything serious and he's more than okay with just being an input and having one as well.

🧡 Nationality/ethnicity?

"Nay's Indian. Tay's Filipino. Ya ask anyone, I look more like my mom."

nanay and tatay are the filipino words for mother and father, respectively. vance has a very limited grasp of either language but he at least knows that much from his dad's mother tongue.

🧡 Favorite fruit?

"Oh, man, 's been a while--this one time when I was growin' up, think I was ten or eleven, 'Saka sent Dad a basket of 'ganic fruit. For his 50 years o' service, I think it was. Anyway, had my first apple then. What I wouldn't fuckin' give for one right now."

he likes fuji apples the best :3

🧡 Favorite season?

"Gotta be winter. I got to go a lot of places back in '65--Europe, mostly--an' most of them were snowy. Loved seein' my breath fog up. You don't get that here. You get hot rains and the pavement steamin'--guess it's pretty, in its way, with all the city's neon shinin' through the rain.

"But it ain't a real winter without snow."

🧡 Favorite flower?

"If ya hike it out to the Badlands in the summer, you'll find these little white flowers blooming on the cacti; Net says they're called Saguaro blooms. I like their...tenacity, I 'spose."

"But if I had to give ya a traditional answer...blue hydrangeas. Maya--she used to grow 'em in her apartment, still don't know how she did it--she gave me some blooms for my birthday back in '70. A welcome home kinda thing. Don't got her green thumb, so they died a week later...but they were real pretty. Somethin' to look forward to comin' home to."

🧡 Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?

"Coffee--can't say it works for me, though."

he likes all three and refuses to drink his coffee black. he will put so much milk and creamer in that cup that it might as well be a dessert. johnny is disgusted (affectionate).

🧡 Average hours of sleep?

"...Hours, plural?"

vance is a champ at power naps and between the relic and an insomnia left over from his arasaka days, he doesn't get to bed much. if you do somehow get him into bed by morning, however, be prepared to not see him until near-evening the next day.

🧡 Dog or cat person?

note: those 10,000 photos are just the ones he has on his phone; do not look at the cloud where his kiroshi photos are stored.

🧡 Dream trip?

"...Was actually, erm, thinkin' of--well, when we get all this shit sorted out--I was thinkin'...might bring Johnny somewhere colder. Somewhere with snow. Said he hasn't seen snow before, so, I-unno, thought he might like it out there."

please take this time to imagine johnny in his android body nuzzled up to vance in the snow, red-faced and, for the first time in a long time, in awe. they're going to have hot chocolate later in some cabin vance rented out for the season--but right now, they're watching their shared breath cloud together in the air, simpatico even in this.

🧡 Favorite fictional character?

"Oh, oh--there's this real old holovid I used to loop when I was fifteen. 's fucked how they got most of it right. Anyhow, Rick Deckard. I used to think he was so damn cool."

deckard, with his big-collared jacket and general gruffness, was definitely one of vance's transition goals. that, and he watched br2049 right after--with how deckard was treating K, vance started projecting Really Fucking Heavily on K. like wow! you're a total killing machine with a father who just might love you. that's crazay man. could not be me

🧡 Number of blankets you sleep with?

"Run pretty warm as it is already, so just the one. Like the...texture of it, as it were. The weight o' it."

get this man a weighted blanket please god. i think it would fix him. alternatively, just lay on top of him and he'll be happy.

🧡 Random fact?

"I used to klep a lotta shit when I was a kid. Wires, chips, motherboards--mostly tech, really, from the vendin' machines and bus stops 'round the city. Sold 'em for a pretty eddie down in Heywood; got no buyers in the Hill, not when we could all afford the tech those Heywood kids were tryin' to kitbash together in the first place. Don't really know why I did it.

"To strike out, maybe? Maybe I liked the challenge. There's somethin' about makin' a machine give its own parts to you; get a vending machine to dispense its motherboard, a bus stop sign its LED, and ya feel like ya can make anythin' bend to your will."

QSMP LANGUAGE DAY‼️ HAVE SOME FILIPINO* TRANSLATIONS NOW THAT OUR LANGUAGE HAS BEEN ADDED :D

*Note: This will be one dialect, which is the most common dialect, Tagalog. People tend to say Tagalog = Filipino, but it's just really the most used dialect

Hi/Hello = Magandang Araw/Umaga/Gabi

We have no informal way of greetings other than just saying Hi or Hello, so we say Good day/Morning/Evening

Until next time = Hanggang sa susunod

No informal or formal way of saying bye other than just saying Bye

The Federation = Ang Federasyon

No direct translation of Federation, we change spellings sometimes of English words to fit

Eggs = Mga Itlog ▪︎ Egg = Itlog

Plural words tend to have "mga" before the noun, we don't usually add s or es at the end

The Code = Ang Kode

Same as above, change of spelling. We don't have c's or some letters in our alphabet so it's ABKD (Ah-Ba-Ka-Da) <- ABCs

Mom = Nanay ▪︎ Dad = Tatay

Child = Anak ▪︎ Grandchild = Apo ▪︎ Sibling = Kapatid ▪︎ Niece/Nephew = Pamangkin

Our language doesn't usually gender words, so daughter or son would just boil down to "anak"

Eldest [Child] = Panganay ▪︎ Youngest [Child] = Bunso

Usually people will address others or kids as "bunso" which is youngest. If we finally get Filo streamers and they call their eggs or other eggs "panganay" or "bunso", there you go!

He/She/They (singular) = Siya ▪︎ They (plural) = Sila

Sure = Sige ▪︎ Yes = Oo ▪︎ No = Hindi ▪︎ Not allowed = Bawal

*Bawal is like saying "you're not allowed". "Bawal kumain" is "You're not allowed to eat"

Gossip = Chika/Chismis

Motherfucker = Putang Ina

Some informal spelling would have it together as "putangina" or slang as "tangina"

Shit/Fuck = Puta

Idiot = Bobo ▪︎ Stupid = Gago ▪︎ Dumb = Tanga

These are slang terms or more rather, insults, for being an idiot. Do this what you will with Foolish's name

Girlfriend/Boyfriend = Kasintahan

Love = Mahal

This can also mean expensive

Duck = Bibe ▪︎ Rabbit = Kuneho

Money = Pera

If you were to say the currency of money, we use Pesos (peh-sos) <- instead of pay-sos

The Island = Ang Isla

We hope you enjoy the Island = Umaasa kami na masiyahan ka sa Isla

For informal use, say "Sana na masiyahan ka sa Isla".

Some Slang:

Sana all = [If] only all

Used when others have something that you want. "Sana all may girlfriend :-(" = "If only [everyone] had a girlfriend :-("

Mamser/s = Ma'am + Sir/s

Slang for addressing all, like ladies and gentleman but in slang

Bading = Gay

Not actual slang translation, but feel free to use this LOL + also a lot of queer filos (me) like to just say bading a lot LMFAO

KKB (Kanyang Kanyang Bayad) = "Pay with your own money"

Used when you're going out with friends and don't treat each other to paid meals. Pay on your own!

Aq = Ako = I

I personally tend to abbreviate ako as "aq" as the pronounciation is sort of the same where the q sounds like "ku" so it sounds like "aku" or ako in an informal setting

Huy/Hoy = Hey

Said usually outside as Huyyyyy or Uy. Huy is like "Heyyyyyy" while Hoy is like "HEY!" (think of it as OI!)

Shet = Shit ▪︎ Pak = Fuck ▪︎ Pakyu = Fuck you

Kyut = Cute

Pa kyut = To be cute, not to be confused with Pak-yu

This is all I could come up with for now, feel free to add more! Hanggang sa susunod! Mwah mwah kis kis

[f1-4rf3s0-l]

Hmm, Christmas

I like Christmas, the food, the chilly air, the relatives, it feels warm and I feel loved lol. There are some people I wanna spend Christmas with, it feels illegal, but it sure feels good smh. It sure is fun to talk to, play games with, and generally spend time with people I love. Hmm, cringey. I miss caroling with my cousins, haven't done that in a while. On Christmas with extended fam, the presents always fell flat but the money though... 🤑. I feel like Christmas has a feeling attached to it, it's like a feeling that's associated with it, I don't know what it is...

Ang pasko para sa akoa kay murag dili mabutngag kahulugan, murag dili mahikap ang kinatibuk-ang gahum sa misteryo sa pasko Bwhahaha. Mura gyug dili masabtan ang mabat-an kung muabot na ang pasko, murag malipay nalang ka nga "ay pasko na diay" (Hahahaha buang). Usahay man gud, murag wa na namatikdan nga ting pahulay na, ting ila-ila nasads mga kapamilyahan, ting kitaay nasads ate kuya, titog tita, nanay tatay, (manulis nasad ta anig pamaskohan Hahaha) murag mahimuot nalang ka ba.

Usa sad nga hinungdan sa misteryo sa pasko kay murag ang memories ba— nadak-an na nato ang mga buluhaton kada pasko (tungod sa atong kultura), mga simbang gabi, carolling, bonding-bonding, dako nga hinungdan ata ang nostalgia. Bisan sad sa ubang pasko nga murag wa gyuy wawarts, makahimo baya gyapug handa bahalag mag ayum-ayum ra, malipay ra baya gyapun ta Hahahaha. Sa panahon sa pasko, ang pamilya baya gyud ang pokus sa okasyon, ang simbahan, ang paghigalaay, murag kana ata ang "misteryo" sa pasko para sa akoa...

[bearrhi]

[Translations: tito = uncle | ate = older sister | nanay = mom | tatay = dad]

Jun talking to ate Jan like their parents would 😭

Meet Jan and Jun Lim, two siblings from Tomarang figuring life out together after losing their parents.

The Lim siblings are one of the families I made when For Rent came out (+ Anand Saechao, Jan's baby daddy). I was so excited to make South East Asian sims in a world inspired by South East Asia, especially as a South East Asian person myself. WE LOVE REPRESENTATION 🤭

Jan and Jun are Filipino and Anand is Thai!

[spotconln]

you know what i want. pinoy spot content.

her ancestors fleeing to the louisiana communities in the early 19th century to escape spanish colonization. hearing stories of family members who fought in american wars (civil war and war of 1812 – she refuses to acknowledge those who fought with the confederacy) and wanting to be as tough and fearless as they were, be a leader.

taking care of her younger siblings, the protective instinct being instilled early on. learning english alongside her native tongue. watching her tatay fish and nearly falling into the docks herself. being involved in the traditions with her community. the familiar smell of cooking with her nanay.

migrating up to new york for better opportunities. anglicizing their last name to conlon (yes, it's an irish name, creative liberties). losing her parents in accidents. her and her siblings being taken in by the brooklyn newsies. distrustful at first, but eventually fiercely loyal. learning under the older ones and adoring the younger ones like her own siblings. finding the balance between cultures as she's constantly learning and embracing different ones, feeling more at home with other filipino newsies.

gaining a new sense of the word pamilya with the newsies.

earning the nickname spot for her spot on aim with a slingshot. rising up the ranks and gaining respect. rightfully becoming leader of the brooklyn newsies, feeling that sense of leadership she's always dreamed about. secretly giggling to her girls whenever other boroughs are intimidated by her.

reporting with pride the news of the philippines being free from spanish rule. supporting, without hesitation, the revolutionaries and their fight for independence and getting into arguments and fights about it with imperialists during the philippine-american war. shamelessly advocating their sovereignty for years.

leading her newsies into the strike and feeling that sense of courage despite the nerves and fear because they're doing the right thing, one she knows her ancestors felt when running for their freedom.

keeping scraps of any newspaper she can find that mentions filipinos and their accomplishments. her heart hurting at racial discrimination and violence but keeping a brave face.

celebrating the phillippines finally getting proper independence (because she will still be alive by 1946, i am making it so) and getting emotional when naturalized as an official u.s. citizen.

reflecting on her childhood and her parents and and her ancestors and just how far they've come.

tldr; clarice julianda as spot makes my pinoy heart so happy.

[alpasnihaya]

i can't fathom i have a boyfriend now.

family is something i cherish, pero at the same time i don't really want to be that desperate for it. i come from a family that bond over food, especially lunches or dinner, or even meryenda. i guess that's how you call busog talaga.

i've always dreamt of having my first boyfriend completely known by my family. i don't like the idea of hiding someone i completely love from the first ones who lent me love. gusto kong maharana or sing together, go on food trips, be actual friends with them before hopping into the relationship, and bond with family. i'm not gonna lie anymore, family is so important to me. they've granted me so much love and care. i've always had this dream since i was a tween. napakasarap magmahal kung mahal rin sila ng mga taong minamamahal mo.

i adore my boyfriend's bond with my family so much. natutuwa akong sobra kasi i'm seeing my life and i'm conscious. how i love them so much. yung mga jokes ni nanay, yung bond nila tatay, yung asaran nila ni hannah.. jesus. he's a part of our family. i'm so happy. kukupkupin talaga namin sya : (

napakapogi nya, ang ganda nya ngumiti. yung totoo, those genuine smiles. i've never seen him have so much fun and smile so much before. on top of that, kasama pa yung pamilya ko. i love dieter n my fam so much : ) ♡

[sunb0rn]

glad that i got to visit nanay naty's wake yesterday

monday palang worried na ako kung may magagawa ba ako na tulong sa fam sa pag aasikaso coz nanay passed away at around 4 am. pero dahil magulo pa din karamihan at madami naman na silang nasa LP, pumasok nalang ako. i just messaged my mom na pwede ako umuwi ng Wednesday to help out kasi wala yung isa kong tita.

tbh, kung si mamy lang masusunod feeling ko ayaw na niyang umuwi pa ako ng alanganin na araw dahil makaka uwi naman ako ng friday night. ayaw kasi non na napapagod ako ganyan, or like iniisip niya wala naman akong valuable na magagawa doon (or baka ako lang din nag iiisip neto) anywaaayyy..

umuwi pa din ako kahapon kahit na hindi naman kulang talaga yung mag aasikaso sa wake (hindi natuloy lakad ng tita ko). gusto ko din kasi mag spend ng time with nanay and in any way mapag silbihan siya for the last days.

so yon.

yung pag punta ko, i would say that its worth more than what I thought kahit mga simpleng pag aasikaso lang ng bisita ginawa ko + we had a visitor na fam friend ng mom and dad ko, eh lumabas si mamy to run some errands. at least i was there to talk with her.

pero yung best thing ng pagpunta ko is dahil kay tatay mando *ill have a separate post for this gusto ko may kasama na pics eh.

eto yung first loss namin from dady's immediate fam.

It's now or never.

Hindi ganun kadali pero siguro ito yung kailangan. I always asked the Lord to give me a sign kung kailan tama na but it seems like nabibigay pero dinidisregard ko.

Kasi namamag asa parin ako.

Kasi baka one day maging okay talaga kami.

Kasi baka kaya parin naman.

Sino ba naman kasi gustuhing makikipaghiwalay paskong pasko? Pero kung papalagpasin ko pa, baka maging cycle na naman ako na naman ang iiyak palagi. Hindi ko rin kayang dibdibin na kahit palipasin man lang ang New Year kasi ang bigat na.

Ofcourse I asked him about what happened last night na mas pinili nyang makasama SILA kaysa sakin. I may sound selfish pero special occasion tapos iiwan mo'ko? Na akala ko maghahatid lang pero anyare? Ignoring my chats ang calls tapos irireason mo sakin lowbatt? Kung hindi walang data, mahina signal, ngayon naman lowbatt.

Inumaga ako kakahintay and finally decided to go out nalang kasi andami ko ng iniisip ayoko magpalamon. Tanghali na sya nakauwi habang ako bumabyahe na mag isa. Just needed some fresh air and it helps. Decided to watch Firefly and the biggest takeaway ko dun is maging matapang, overcome your weakness (in my case yung pagiging vulnerable ko) and move forward lang. I burst into tears sa sinehan at kauwi ko may part 2 pala ng pag iiyak na naman.

While me asking about that night, I know some of it is hindi totoo. The way he speak, the body language, I know it isn't.

Lagi ko sinasabi sa kanya na mas gusto kong malaman kahit yung masakit na katotohanan.

Siguro sobra sobra na din. Napupuno din. Tao lang din. It was all about the small things and small unresolved issues na nakakapagsuko sakin. Which is masakit kasi maliliit na bagay na nga lang pero parang wala syang action sa mga inaaddress ko sa kanya noon pa man and it turns into cycle nalang.

It takes me a lot of courage to do this.

Almost frkng 9 yrs of being with someone you love is not that easy to let go.

Yes, we're engaged for 10 months now and maybe we're just really not meant for each other.

The book of It Ends With Us reminds me to step up and breaking the generational chains. I always say to myself na ayoko mangyari sakin yung nangyari sa marriage ng parents ko. It turns out along the process na may some similarities na sa relasyon namin.

Ayokong maging tulad ng nanay ko na nagtiis ng almost 23 years sa ugali ng tatay ko. Yun nga lang she made a mistake that I can't tolerate. I can't tolerate cheating.

I love them both pero masakit sa loob ko na pinaabot nya ng almost 23 years bago mag decide na iwan talaga tatay ko and sa way pa ng pag ccheat.

Masama loob ko dahil kaming mga anak nila ang damay, ang kawawa, ang nagsusuffer. And to my father na just doing his best for his children, yun nga lang not the best for his wife.

May sama ng loob talaga ako sa parents ko but in the end, they're still my parents.

Now, I can say that it's totally over.

pag nakikita ko talaga ugali nitong pamangkin ni J na 5 years old, lalo kong inaayawan magkaron ng anak hahaha. ang hirap pala talaga magpalaki ng maayos. lalo pag ganito, parang ang hirap i-correct.

I dunno kung dahil ba nag shift yung way ng pagpapalaki sakanya nung napunta sa tatay or ganito na talaga siya before malayo dito. parang 3 years old lang kasi siya nandito. almost 2 years din nawala sakanila. so baka may effect nga talaga yun. ang siste kasi, siya lang yung bata dun sa side ng tatay niya, e kaso wala naman ding time yung tatay sakanya, lagi raw busy sa work. pero babing baby siya dun syempre walang ibang kaagaw sa atensyon e. yung mga tita lang din ang madalas kasama pero medyo na-spoiled din. ngayon, andito na siya ulit, syempre di lang naman siya yung bata dito. gusto niya nasakanya lang lahat ng atensyon, gusto niya siya lang yung love. gusto ko intindihin pero ewan naiirita lang ako, sorry. haha

marunong narin siya sumagot sa mga nakakatanda sakanya, may mga unreasonable conditionds narin siya. tulad ngayon lang, hinawakan lang ng pinsan niya yung laruan niya, ayaw niya ipahawak. pinapaintindi sakanya na hindi maganda yung nagdadamot, at kailangan niya matuto mag share. so sinabihan siya na pag pumunta sa bahay ng pinsan niya wag hahawak ng laruan. aba sumagot ba naman ng pagalit "fine, he can have all that [toys]" tas paulit ulit niya sinasabi yung 'fine' habang nagsasalita yung lola niya.

sabi ko "that's bad" tas sinagot pa ako "pag sinabi mo pa yan di na kita love" hahahahaha. di ko alam kung matatawa ako o maiinis talaga e haha. nakaka stress ang mga ganitong bata. sorry, pero ganito yung ugali ng mga bata na pinaka ayoko. parang may mali kasi, pero i swear naiintindihan ko naman yung bata kasi wala yung prensence ng magulang niya, which is sad, na kahit ang dami na namin dito na nagmamahal sakanya, parang kulang parin. it's annoying, yes, but it kinda makes me wanna understand the kid so much better. medyo nakakatulong rin sa patience ko ang hindi pangengealam sa mga ganitong scenario, like nakikinig lang ako. haha.

~~~~

I wonder kung ganito ba ako kasalbahe nung gantong edad ko, pero I think not. kasi laking lolo't lola ako, sobrang clingy ko sakanila na halos ayaw ko na umuwi ng bahay kasi gusto ko lang sila kasama lagi, hanggang pag laki malambing ako sakanila though nung naging adult [college days] nalang ako medyo naging suwail sa lola — which is minsanan lang esp kapag nagdadala ako ng barkada noon sa bahay.

base rin sa kwento ng mom ko noon napaka friendly ko daw nung bata ako, takot nga ako sa nanay ko e. siguro naman hindi ako ganito kasalbahe. kaya napapa isip ako minsan kung magkaka anak kami, paano ko kaya palalakihin na hindi spoiled, suwail at salbahe.

Hi there! This will be my first blog entry and I hope that you'll like it. I'm Margarette but you can call me Marga for short. I'm 18 years old and I've already made big achievements in my life. I'm a pageant enthusiast and I've already won three crowns. I love cats so much and I have a cat named Margot ☺️ isn't it cute? His name is inspired from my name.

I'm raised by my grandparents and grew up in a small town in the province of Eastern Samar which is Salcedo. Our hometown is known for its beautiful beaches and people, I'll tell you more about my hometown on my next blog. I don't have a biological father by my side but I am beyond grateful for having such wonderful people with me as I grow. I have my Mama, Nanay, Tatay, Auntie Myrna, Aunties, Uncles and cousins with me as I explore things in my life. They made me who I am today and I will forever be grateful for that.

Currently, I'm a college freshman and I'm taking Bachelor of Arts in Communication. I've chosen this college program because my passion is in this college program. I'm a journalist from elementary to senior high school, now that I'm a college student I didn't join the ESSU Catalyst. Maybe I was scared and a bit pressured about the college life but I'll try to join next school year. I've made new friends in college. At first I was hesitant to approach my classmates because I am really a shy type of person. I'm not the kind of person who approaches someone first but now I guess I've improved and faced my fears.

I think that's all that I can share with you for now, see you on my next blog!

✨Sleep therapy for today ✨

Nagpunta kami sa birthday party ng pamangkin ko. Naisip ko, ang wasteful ng kids' party (or at least, 'yung style kanina). Naisip ko rin, kung ako ang magpaparty, siguro mga 7-10 people lang mai-invite ko, kalahati noon e kamag-anak, tapos konting friends from school. Most likely, intimate dinner lang 'yung style or something. Or spa party or byahe sa resort.

Anyway, children's party naman 'yung kanina so gets, pero ang kaunti lang ng kids, siguro mga 5-7 tapos hindi pa game sa mga palaro. So, adults na lang ang niyayang mag-participate. Karamihan sa attendees e mukhang friends from work ng pinsan ko and mga kamag-anak ng asawa niya. Except sa hello and thank you, hindi wala naman kaming interaction halos ng ibang tao roon, kahit 'yung mga kamag-anak namin.

I hope na nag-enjoy 'yung pinsan ko, asawa nya, at 'yung 1-year-old nila, kasi if hindi, 'yun ang ultimate sayang. I kept seeing 'yung balloons, cups, plastic things and even food na mapupunta lang sa basurahan ('yung lolo ko for example andaming ayaw sa food). Pang-budget meal ng estudyante kasi 'yon, which isn't bad if may 30 kids na umattend or so.

Nag-reminisce lang ako about 'yung party namin noong kinder ako na sa ganoon din ginanap (ibang branch) at 'yung cute naming pictures ng mga kaklase ko. Also tinago pa ng kaklase ko 'yung pictures so pag bisita ko sa bahay nila, pinakita ng tatay niya sa akin. Haha. Memories.

Tapos, tumambay nanaman ako sa mga job posting site at andami kong nakitang mga naghahanap ng "property specialist." Sabi ng parents ko, mag-apply daw ako tapos ipasa ko sa kanila pag bentahan na. Kasi may age limit usually na pinopost. Napa-comment nga ako sa isa, "bakit until 32 lang." Kung gusto nga naman nila na confident tungkol sa mga kabahayan, may network, at medyo walang ginagawa sa life, why not 'yung mga semi-retired mommy or empty nesters.

After a while, na-toxic-an na ako sa ginagawa ko, and karamihan ng mga post hindi for me (for example, looking for translators or actuarial officer), so naisip ko, mag-stick na lang kasi sa moonlighting jobs. Until now hindi pa ako nakakapagsimula kasi wala akong mahanap so far na malapit dito sa bahay and okay ang schedule (usually 24 hours palagi tapos ER post pa). Also within a few seconds of posting, post taken na agad 'yung mga LF. Matindi ang competition. Mas nakakakita ako ng regular doctor jobs sa paligid, pero may regular job na ako eh, gusto ko talaga extra money in a few hours of working lang. Pang-gyudon ko.

Everytime may "nalalakihan" sa sahod ng doctor, naaactivate ang fight (not flight) mode ko sa pagpapaliwanag na kulang 'yon compared sa mga pinagdaanan to get here. Pero ako rin naman nalalakihan sa sahod ng mga surgeon na consultant, tapos ang sisipag pa nila, everyday, nasa operating room. Iba naman kasi 'yon. Mga edad 50 pataas na sila at hindi sila makakapag-opera forever.

'Yung friend ng nanay kong may anak na doctor, nag-post ng now serving profile niya sa social media. Pero wala akong gano'n kasi ayokong mag-market sa mga kakilala. Mas trip ko magkausap ng mga stranger para no strings attached.

Actually, sa kabila ng lahat, parang ambilis lang ng party. 'Yun nga lang may humarang sa parking namin kaya wala ring silbi na maagang nakalabas sa building. After no'n, natulog lang ako until now. Mula kagabi, after kong matapos ang deliverables, sabi ko, pahinga na talaga. Kailangan ko nang lumayo sa part-time for now at mag-focus sa recovery para pagdating sa Monday e ready ulit! Dadating pala 'yung may mataas na katungkulan sa opisina from abroad next week so need ko rin ng energy for that.

I'm happy kahit papaano kasi kayang bawiin ng tulog 'yung pagod ko. May time na kahit matulog ako, paggising ko, masakit pa rin, or something. Parang pumikit lang ako at dumilat. Pero ngayon, I feel the weariness going away.

Happy Sunday!

Long post ahead. It's a rant. Feel free to scroll away :)

I walk on eggshells everytime my tatay (translation: dad) is around. Which means ever since i started college, i tread on thin ice because of him. I don't know why it has come to this. If this was the sims, my friendship bar with him as kid would be around 90 to 100. Right now? 50-75. Or probably 50. Idk. Why are fathers like this?

I have never heard any good words from him. Just bad. Like hurtful. Hurtful to me. And they all stuck. One of them was when I was in 8th grade. I'm in my 2nd year of my IT course. 6 years, and i still remember where I was, where he was, the time he said that to me, and the way he told me that. He said "babagsak ka na lang" (you'll fail). To my 8th grade self, i was ugly crying because the group leader went on a vacation because his parents forced him to, and i was suddenly left, and it was all too much for me that time (drama play, campus paper projects, radio play). You might think, "lana, that's petty". But it hurts. It hurt me that time, and it still does right now.

And then another time when he told wanted me to do stock trading, but i didnt want to, he said "wala ka nang pag-asa" (you're a lost case/ you have no hope) like ok...? And because of that, my brain learned that: tatay is here = be mindful of your actions; tatay is here = leave the room and do something else that he won't notice and sermon you for it; tatay is here = do not be left alone with him if one does not one to feel anxious and awkward.

He calls me lampa (clumsy; but it hurts to hear it in tagalog lol). I don't know. I wish I wasn't born, honestly.

And then all of this, it all comes down to a thought that goes: "Lana, you have it lucky. You have a home, food, clothes; your parents gave you good education by enrolling you in a private university from elementary to senior high. They've given you wants (that I was still shy to ask and receive). You shouldn't feel this way."

And then I feel guilty. And then I try erasing it in my mind by doing something else (gaming or watching stuff or listening to music or just staring outside).

I can never bring this up to my nanay (mom) because I don't want to hurt her, and that would mean she's gonna bring that up to him, and that may lead to serious discussions with him, and that would be the death of me
