PLARIDEL/PENABATAN

Monday afternoon man cguro to when I went to check a certain room for rent sa Vivas Subdivision in Plaridel, Bulacan. Nice didto kay safe nya walking distance ra lagi to and from the jeepney stop. But when I went there, they said taken n daw ang single room. So adto n daw kos room nga naay double deck. Sad. But today 11/15/23, they msgd that di daw madayon kay nawad-an daw ug wallet tong gusto mopujo didto. Hmmm, meant to be? But then, tua koy gustong tan-awn pud sa Penabatan, Pulilan, near the bypass road daw. Coz P3k ra man gud to while P4k tong sa Plaridel. But basin madala pud diay to ug P3k kay di man ko mogamit sa ilang internet. Ang ahong apas ato is ang kanindot ra man jud sa room bujag and ang accessibility and safety. So I plan to check out the Penabatan apartment this afternoon. Di sa ko moadto ila Kuya Rading kay morag daanon n man tong ilang room lagi. Jia you Doki!

AFTER ALL

Ganahan pud mokanta nis Mam Joy nga teacher ug Math. Jia you Mam. Amen! Ay I went to check out a room for rent in Plaridel diay yday afternoon. Wa man naho bayri, they msgd me today that nakuha n daw. Sus kadali ra pud oi. Ganahan n ta ko kay walking distance ra from Vivas Subdivision to sakayan. Then the jeepney ride reminded me of old Cebu life jud. Cge lang, basin tuay lain pud lagi. Di n man lagi kuno mobalhin si Kyla and morag si Hershey pud. So ako jud ang maningkamot ani lagi if gusto ko mobalhin. Gimahalan man ko atong ila Kuya Rading lagi that Karlyn Alipio helped me find. Duol ra jud nuon to nya maglakaw ko lagi ug mga 15 to 20 minutes siguro to NU/SM Baliwag. But morag not worth the price lng lagi kay morag wa ko kafeel ug safety didto. Ako ra jud nuon tas room nya P2500 daw if walang aircon and P3k if aircon. So if 2 mi moabang, P1,500 ra mi each. But wa lng lagi ko nidajon kay I somehow felt closed in didto. 2nd unit man gud siya. Mas maayo siguro aron di diha dajon masulod. Pero morag wa lng ko ganahis neighborhood lagi. I pray for the best. Amen!

REAL ESTATE

This weekend has been about real estate. On Saturday night, I received a flyer from this lady manning the Alta Vida stall in SM Baliwag. She actually turned out to be married to a Korean guy. Yun iyang family name actually. But upon chatting with her, it appears that her husband is not related to the guy that I met in Hawaii many years ago. And y'day 11/12/23, while waiting for SM Baliwag to open, I chatted with this lady named Chello Cruz. She was manning the Alta Vida stall pud y'day. Whole day raw siya dun. But actually I talked to many people yday about rent to own etc. And today, there's somebody who said that they have an available room for rent in Plaridel, Bulacan. Tan-awn p naho if ganahan kos lugar and if ma-afford pud naho. Coz P2500 tong ila Kuya Rading lagi nga walking distance to NU/SM Baliwag. But then wa ko nidajon kay 2nd door and medyo kulob. Or di p lng jud ko decided lagi nga mobalhin. Nag order man gud ko ug 2 air coolers from Shopee. Asa n kaha to ay! Jia you Doki, go go go!

Ganahan ko moadto kay wa p ko kaabot ug Metro Manila lagi. But giubo man pud lagi ko ron, tungod sa alternating lagi Lord nga hot and cold. Well, if in good health ra ko ugma pohon Lord then I'll go early. Kay every 4 hours man ang ingon sa P2P bus service from Malolos to Pasay. If mamiss n naho, asa p ko kasakay lagi padung PITX? Go go go Doki and aloha!
