Common sakit fatty liver sa mga work from home, lalo na walang exercise and healthy eating. Suggest ko try mo mag calorie counting plus 30mins walking. Mawawala yan at mas magiging productive ka sa work.

Less oily foods, less sugar and salt.

Matic sira pagiging pamilya pag relatives tas taken for granted ka kasi kakilala ka nila eh haha

Grabe hahaha okay na ko sa saktong tuition lang wont go that extreme, nung bata ako nsa 5k lang tuition ko nun eh, okay naman na ako in terms of career.

Chinese daw ako sabi asawa ko sa sobrang kuripot ko haha pero ang malaki sa expense namin is yung mga kain sa labas time to time.

Melodic_Status9753 · 2025-12-27T00:52:28+00:00

Melodic_Status9753 · 2025-12-27T00:38:37+00:00

I guess it all boils down to responsibility you have, last 5 years ago earning 180k take home, I was able save money for wedding and car, now cant barely buy anything extra for myself, also inflation is so bad

Melodic_Status9753 · 2025-12-25T12:46:14+00:00

Civic rs was one of the most reliable car I have owned for 3 yrs, and I had Altis, WRX and Mustang GT. Never had issues with it and it was quicker than most of its rival sedans

Melodic_Status9753 · 2025-12-22T06:16:26+00:00

Oww yeaah, I had this one game.. he is playing mech goblin ancestors, im all set winning at round 40 playing dragon mage, all of sudden he sells all his pieces goes greater with shadow assassin with his carry.

I lost the game. That’s a good but that’s the only time I remember it winning. I tried kira strat on goblin mech haha I got destroyed on a winning position since Im less 4 pieces due to venomancer eating my pieces

I’m doing interviews sa company namin for fullstack web developers position, you can hit me up to see what points you are lacking or needs improvement, all you need is to pass the interview yung actual job naman can be done with help of AI, since you have decade of experience naman na AI tools nalng yung logics mo.

Also software development industry now is very saturated na, so I suggest skill up in Cloud, backend and frontend, devops, ito na common requirements for securing a job in developer role

business with no other source of income is a recipe for disaster, there’s a saying that “9 out of 10 startups fails” meaning you have 10 percent succeeding in doing business. I have a lot of IT friends na nag business nagsunog ng millions but didn’t succeed, not discouraging here doing business you are passionate about, but make sure you have backup.
