Theme

I tried tweaking my blog's theme. unfortunately, I'm not good at tweaking anymore. It seems like basic CSS left my central nervous system already. So I decided to get a minimalist theme and tweak it according to my liking. Got pretty contented with it, though i know i need to work on with my creativity once again. How did i get soo rusty?! lol.

Hoping to catch up with CSS/HTML and Photoshop in the coming days because i believe I might need that skill in the coming future.Wish me luck!

For the future!

I came across a post *again* regarding savings/investing. As a parent (and a mimimum wage earner), I can say that saving is not really easy. Especially, when you are sending someone to school and when you have a newborn baby to took care of. The expenses are unlimited. From school stuff down to medical necessity such as vaccines! Good Lord! Vaccine for kids are always P1500 and up! 

Going back to the real topic. I have this parental urge to save for the future, not only for the kids but for my husband and I as well. I was able to save up for a Tricycle last year, now it's already operating(I turned it into a school service/business) and I can call it as an asset. My husband and I goal for the coming year is to open an account for our emergency fund. We're just on our 26-ish so I think we can still catch up for these investments. After that, We will open up a savings account individually and the college fund and insurances will follow. Hopefully, We can finish saving for some of these before we reach 30. 

These might be hard but I'm not open for negativity. Always looking forward to achieve my short term goals. We will just have to sacrifice and forget the "luho" for the next years but Hey, we can enjoy our lives when we reach 40. Lol.

Online Selling


I have decided to declutter my old gadgets and sell them online. I tried utilizing shoppee however I failed using it. The interface is not user friendly!! Maybe just for me. Lol. So i used Facebook Marketplace and it's really an interactive place to sell stuff. You will see how many people had viewed your item and the market is really big since everyone, like literally, everyone has been using facebook nowadays. 


I was able to sell all my items in less than 2weeks. It feels good to earn extra money thou I got sep-anx letting go of the gadgets that I used to enjoy before. Well, the depreciation of gadgets is really fast so, we just need to decide if we will sell them or keep it till it got no value anymore.

Parenting Chronicles


Let me start this with informing y'all that I'm a mother of 2, a 4yo pre-schooler and an unborn baby. Lol. I'm still waiting for my "bunso" to come out. I'm on my 37th week so yea, just counting the days till i meet my little one. 


Parenting was never easy. I was reading a lot of post about parenting. Yes they are informative however, I must say that parenting will always vary from case to case. Not every suggestion or observation would be applicable to every kid. In my take, as long as you show love more than any other emotion is enough to become a better parent. 


I'm guilty of being a disciplinarian-mom. I would say no most of the times. It just that i can't bear to have a spoiled-brat kid. We are living with my parents so yea, Grandma and Grandpa are already giving her everything so I must sacrifice and be the antagonist. In my end, as long as I'm giving her genuine love and support, I know I will be a better mom. 


Let's not give a damn what society will say about our parenting. We know what's best for our children. Let's stop comparing and just focus on our own families. Hoping that time will come and all of the parents out there will claim that they've become the parents they want them to be.

Try'na be back!

Here I am again, back from being long-gone hiatus, however, I must say that I'm gonna be back for good since I need this to improve my writing skills once again. As if that I was good at writing before. Lol.

I'm gonna post random stuff here but I'll do my best to produce post with a senseful content. Wish me luck! Gonna need to motivate myself to do more than what I'm doing already so I'll become succesful in the career that I'm going to take, talking about freelancing.

I'm very open for suggestions and advises especially from someone who do freelancing for a living <3
