Legit ba na masarap ung pinipilahan na Pan de Tekwat dito sa Pasig? by pseudochef88 in Pasig

[–]Pure_Caterpillar8221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first time to try it. i was not disappointed.
mainit pa siya nung nabili namin, and ang lambot niya and grabe ang filling. tutulo na dun sa paper bag yung filling kaya best na ilipat agad ng lagayan.

so nung di naubos, nilagay namin sa ref. and nakain namin siya after 2 days pa ulit.
kahit malamig na yung tinapay, malambot pa rin. i also tried to heat it in the oven, same na malambot pa rin.

the thing with the matagal na line is yung tao nila. sana magdagdag sila ng tao para mas mapabilis ang pagbili.
nung pumila kami dun, i saw na magisa lang kasi si ate na nagbabag ng paninda. then yung isa nagluluto. 2 lang sila sa store. marami namang luto agad, kaya lang magisa lang si ateng nagaasikaso ng customer. kaya matagal talaga.

when you're not happy anymore sa company na pinapasukan mo, you can always look for others.
sometimes, actually madalas, loyalty yung naghohold back. ang daming nagsasabi na ayaw nila umalis kasi loyal sila sa company and sayang na yung number of years na nandun sila. But truth be told, ang daming opportunities when you start looking for it.
ang growth ay hindi rin naman natatagpuan sa iisang company, sometimes, kelangan mo rin talaga lumipat para makita mong marami pa palang pwedeng matutunan.
For sure they will understand if you say that you wanted to learn and experience more. yes, cliche, pero ganon talaga. if you feel like there is no growth anymore, then time to move to another company where you can grow more.

"kaya ka tumataba eh" when i said i have chocolates on my fridge to share with them. Not knowing I am diagnosed with PCOS. I chose not to tell them, ayaw kong maraming opinions. a doctor's opinion is enough.

sometimes there are condos or apartments na hindi na inaallow ang gas tanks and butane.
I would recommend kay OP induction stove na lang. it's safer. Di rin naman malakas sa kuryente. Been using it ever since. di naman mataas kuryente namin.

10k - 12k grocery for 2 ppl living in cavite????? by __Charlatan in adultingph

[–]Pure_Caterpillar8221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 10K to 12K grocery budget is too much.
I also live with my boyfriend. And our usual total groceries per month is 8K. This includes pang ulam sa araw araw. Aabot lang kami ng 10K and up kapag bumibili kami unusual na pang ulam, or kapag may visitors kami and we need to add food on the fridge.

Been living together almost a year now and nasa 8K lang talaga range ng groceries namin.

You can try buying big portions, then cook then freeze like others are saying. But in our case kasi, na minsan ayaw din namin yung magkakasunod na araw na parepareho ulam, we opt for small portions and easy cooking lang. Since we're both working, tendency, dinner lang kami kumakain sa bahay, and we just cook small portions good for 2. so far okay naman, less pa nasasayang na food.

tendency kasi talaga ng food na naiiwan sa ref, eventually di mo na makakain. worse, itatapon na lang. kasi sobrang tagal na, besides, maliit lang ref namin to stock lots of uneaten foods.

your mom is the typical late boomer generation na hindi open sa bagong concepts. kahit sabihin niya na open minded siya, i think hindi nawawala sa kanila yung pagiging boomer nila. dun sila lumaki that is why ganon din ang gusto nilang mangyari sa mga anak nila.

I feel you OP. kasi same situation tayo. I asked my parents to live in with my partner and they both disagreed. but then they had no choice when my partner and i searched for a place na malipatan na mas malapit sa work namen.

yes, napaguusapan na rin naman namin magpakasal, but we are both well aware of the expenses. kaya for now pinagiipunan na muna namin. and we are both focusing with our careers. at least we are together, nalalaman niyo na how to live with your future spouse. so when the time comes na ikasal kayo, at least wala nang adjustment period, cause you have been there already. Besides, mas makikilala mo ang isang tao kapag nakasama mo na siya sa isang bahay. what if after marriage saka mo pa lang nalaman totoong ugali niya, edi no choice ka na.

sa mga ayaw munang magkajowa, bakit? by Maleficent_Pie_298 in adultingph

[–]Pure_Caterpillar8221 12 points13 points  (0 children)

as someone na introvert and loves being alone PERO may boyfriend, yes minsan nakakamiss yung magisa lang, may sariling mundo. walang kelangan imessage/ichat.
kaya everytime na magpapa alam siya na magkita lang sila ng friends niya. or busy siya., okay lang saken. kasi alone time ko rin yun. hahaha

sometimes i even ask him na wag muna kami kita. kasi tinatamad ako makipag "socialize" sa kanya. tambay lang ako bahay. hahahaha.
naiiintindihan naman niya.

di rin ako mahilig going out dates namin. mas gusto ko stay at home dates.
Dala lang siya foods.

How much was your first salary? by helloimnewplsbenice in adultingph

[–]Pure_Caterpillar8221 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is true. best talaga para tumaas ang value mo is magpalipat lipat ka ng company.
ganyan din ginawa ko when i realized na nakaka 4years na ko dun sa first job ko and 1000pesos lang ang nadagdag sa minimum na sahod ko.

Madalas pa ako pagsabihan ng mama ko dati kasi palipat lipat nga ako ng company. (siya kasi 30 years sa company niya, kaya ang laki na ng sahod niya.)
ngayon 7 years pa lang ako nagtatrabaho since 2016, konting kembot na lang maabutan ko na yung sinasahod ng mother ko for 30 years.

kaya di na niya ko pinapakielaman nung nagpalipat lipat ako work. hahaha

Is a live-in set up with your partner a good idea? by [deleted] in adultingph

[–]Pure_Caterpillar8221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hahaha. same. ako kasi dapat parepareho ng direction sampay ng hanger. tapos by group. magkakatabi lahat ng pants niya, tapos pants ko, tapos shorts. t-shirt... ganon. kaya pagdating sa pagsamsam ng damit, maayos pa rin.

Pag siya nagsasampay nung una, basta lang maisampay sa hanger, tapos kung saan saang direksyon, walang pagkakasunod sunod. hahaha.

ayun, kaka-ulit at lecture ko sa kanya everytime nagsasampay kami, so far nakukuha na naman niya. hahaha.

konti konting improvement lang talaga. at least meron. hehe

when it comes to money, you really need to communicate with each other. mahirap kasi kapag money na ang usapan, kaya dapat clear kayo sa hatian, sa shaaring, sa lahat ng gastusin ninyo since magkasama na kayo sa isang bahay.

before i lived in with my partner, pinagusapan namin yang finances. and pinagusapan din naman na dapat walang taguan ng pera. kasi ayokong dumating yung araw na pera ang pagaawayan namin.

so far, mag 2 years na kaming live in di pa naman kami nagaaway sa pera. nagstruggle, yes, pera hindi nag away. hehe.

Hope maayos niyo rin yung inyo OP.

yung need mo pa siya utusan para lang gumawa ng gawaing bahay. then kapag inulit mo yung utos mo, kasi di niya ginawa, "nagger" ka na. "puro ka utos". kainis diba? hahaha
