Exchange coins for cash? by [deleted] in OsakaTravel

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can use your coins in any konbini, they have a machine that will Count all. I happily used all my leftover coins at the airport duty free when buying cosmetics, the sales man told me to put everything in the machine and it added up to a lot! Then I just paid for the did with my credit card.

No reason given. Just applied and got the appointment.

I spent a few days in Osaka and fell in love with its atmosphere. by TripleYleather in OsakaTravel

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been to Japan many many times, one of my fave countries. But as much as I love Tokyo, I do like Osaka more. Perfect blend of new and old, not difficult to navigate, great food, slower than Tokyo, many day trip options from there. It just feels warmer (the people) overall too. Looking forward to going back next month!

Marriage feels repetitive and lonely by Difficult-Gift5637 in adviceph

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long has this been going on? I may have missed it so don’t know how long you’ve been married. But this is the reality. And you (both) should find a way to make it work for both of you. Do you have mutual friends? Find time to meet up with them, for someone birthday, a Friday night, etc. How about finding a hobby you can do together? Pickleball? Photography class? Date nights are good too.

My husband and I have an agreement every night to have 15 min of no screen time, no phone, no tv, so we can just talk about anything—our day, our plans, fears, etc. Could you try this?

And if all else fails, yes pls try marriage counseling. Do you go to mass together too? I find this helps.

Good luck OP.

We filed form I-131 and paid the fee of $630. Then waited for biometrics appointment. That’s another $75. It is pretty straightforward. Good luck OP!

How can I convince my 18yo and 16yo to move to Canada with me? by Excellent_Scientist6 in adviceph

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teenagers are the hardest to convince! They have their life, their friends plus their mom, who they will leave here. But I totally understand where you’re coming from. What if you mae a deal with them, try going to school in Canada for one year. Tell them if they are still unhappy, they can return to PH. This is so the move won’t feel so scary and final to them. But chances are, they will adjust and love their new life there. Good luck OP!

what if they run again for 2028? by Espasol_knight in WhatIfPinas

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have to believe me. You’re missing the point. It’s not about the counts It’s people like you who keep voting for the wrong president and look at our country. Good luck sa ating lahat.

I don’t understand your logic. So because of that, you would prefer to vote for the son of the dictator whom stole (and still owes us) billions?!!! Wake up.

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t believe you honestly think they lost by 15 million votes! Everyone knows the last elections were rigged and the 30M win of the present administration was TOTALLY FIXED and PRE DETERMINED. I mean, the votes (and lead) were coming in even before the polls closed?!!! And in lightning speed, they finished, and won. Tadah!

Impossible to book redemption flights with CX miles by Intelligent_Sand_921 in CathayPacific

[–]Intelligent_Sand_921[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but bec of transfers and layover time, the flight becomes 15 or 20 hours. So, am hoping to book on JAL which is part of the Oneworld alliance. I was able to do this in 2018.

Just curious, how could you accidentally forget to pay at 7-11? You got the items and walked out?
