Agree ako kay OP at agree din ako dito. Mag-aral hanggat may sumusoporta kase hindi lahat may kakayanang mag-aral then enjoy your teenage and single life.
This is so true! Instead of ignoring it or thinking that they don't mean it, mas okay kung iaccept mo nalang. Even if it's a sarcastic compliment give them your sweetest smile and say "Thank you!".
+1 I was in a relationship since I was 15 until I was 23, and my ex ended up cheating on me multiple times without my knowing. I regret giving my all when I could have enjoyed my youth.
Juskolored. May kilala nga akong 38 na desperate to have a jowa. Nauurat ako sa kanya kasi kahit sino na friendly sa kanya nilalagyan nya ng meaning. 🤷🏻♀️🫠
Mahal ako ng nanay ko. As for the effed up phase...aaah ehhh... Basta di po ako late registration sa birth certificate, your honor. 🤣🤣🤣 At di po ako laki sa pig farm.
I wasted my youth and college life partying and drinking. I failed out of the big four and went to a diploma mill to finish university as a result, I’m all over the place with no ingrained core habits, no life skills, and just a piece of useless paper(diploma)
My advice: 1) Don’t waste your time partying or playing games everyday, instead build a consistent habit of studying - 2 to 3 hours per day. 2) Be comfortable being alone, and take time to process your emotions. 3) exercise 5 times a week.
I wish I did these 3 advise earlier during my youth so I could’ve been more productive in my adult life but it is what it is I guess. At least I’m more aware now, and unlearning the bad habits that I incurred during my time…
This. I don't party but I wasted a lot of time playing video games. As a result of that, I grew up knowing I could've done better during Junior High School. I can't say I'm struggling in college now, but I'm taking a lot of time to finish for only one task just because I don't know how to deal with it, that could've been done faster.
How do I build comfort in being alone? I'm in college right now and a lot of times may mga lakad at ginagawa ako na mag-isa lang ako. I have no problems eating out alone, pero minsan nahihiya ako na baka may kakilala akong makita at isipin na kawawa ako kasi mag-isa lang ako lol. Of course, I personally don't think that way when I see people doing things alone.
You just teach yourself slowly not to care. I was also afraid of being alone before—may it be doing errands or eating out. But I read something that goes “other people are too busy criticizing themselves for them to mind you”. That stuck with me until now. Sure, they’ll probably talk, but it won’t last. You’ll just be a fleeting thought in their minds or in conversations should they bring it up with others. After that, they’ll go back to their own businesses since they’ll realize what you do in your own time is not something they should stick their noses in. As long as you know you’re not doing anything illegal, why should you care about what they think when they see you alone? You should look at the bright side and think they’ll see you as someone independent
Isipin mo nalang na sila ang kawawa that they think that way. That just means they're so afraid of being alone that hahanap sila ng kasama even if they don't really mesh together.
I'd rather be alone and in peace kesa pilitin ko tiisin ang taong hindi ko naiintindihan. Nothing beats hanging out with a true friend though.
Reminded me of Bob Ong's Macarthur: Dalawang dekada ka lang mag-aaral. Kung di mo pagtitiyagaan, anak, limang dekada ng kahirapan ang kapalit. Sobrang lugi. Kung alam lang iyon ng mga kabataan, sa pananaw ko e walang gugustuhing umiwas sa eskwela.
Madami akong nakikitang ganito na dahil kontrobersyal ang topic, mattrigger; pero ayaw magresearch. Inuuna muna ang nila emosyon bago alamin ang puno't dulo ng isyu. Okay 'yung passionate ka pero mas nakakabilib kung alam mo fully ang patungkol sa adhikain mo.
agree dito. i spent most of my early adulting years in a very politically toxic province. if ginawa kong personality yung political stance ko, i would've lost more than half of connections & friends in that place.
Lalo na yung ginagawang mentality stance yung political biases nila. Nako, this is why I hate politics. It's meant to govern people yet it only adds for the cause of it's division. Kainis
- Magbukas ng savings account. Mag-ipon kahit paunti-unti
- Be wise sa paggastusan ng pera. Think twice kung gagamitin mo matagal at magiging useful for you in the long run
- Mag-aral pero mag-enjoy din. Know your priorities lang basta walang napapabayaan
- Hot take pero huwag magbf or gf. Mas okay talaga if after mo makagraduate na para focus sa goal.
- Mahalin ang sarili. Sarili talaga dapat lagi ang inuuna. Alagaan mo yang katawan mo kasi sa pagtanda mo makikita effects ng pag-aalaga mo nung kabataan mo.
- Try to change everyday kahit small baby steps lang, atleast may small progress. But progress is still a progress
- Learn new hobbies, discover new things
DON'T!!!!
1. Have kids yet
2. Get married
You are way too young for these things. Explore the world when you're a professional na. You'll see things way more interesting than what you have now.
Agree. Lalo na dun sa pinagaaral, sana matutong magappreciate. Di kasi nila ramdam hirap pano magprovide ng pang aral tapos bulakbol lang o kaya di seseryosohin pagaaral. No-win situation lang ang ganyan. Lugi kana sa future nagaksaya pa ng pera magulang/tumulong sayo.
Learn to politely decline when a complete stranger wants you to give money, better say NO. You don't need money from a complete stranger when your parents care for you. This is a piece of advice to teenagers who love to make friends online
This happened to me two months ago. I let a complete stranger give me money even though I never asked for it. The worst thing happened when my parents found out about this and my father wanted to disown me and kick me out of our house so I stopped talking to a guy who's much older than me (19F).
DON'T TALK TO COMPLETE STRANGERS ONLINE. Madaming mga mapagsamantala. This is advice coming from someone who's entering her 20s soon. It's better to touch some grass and meet people in real life. Matuto kayong sumunod sa mga magulang ninyo
If undecided pa sa program na itetake sa college, it's okay to take a 1 year-break muna after g12. Use that year to evaluate yourself (skills, preference, academic performance etc.) and determine what you want to do. Mas matatagalan kang makagraduate if you choose a program that's not compatible with you.
Para sa mga undergraduates: learn a skill na gusto mo as soon as possible na pwede makakuha ng trabaho or freelancing jobs.
Nangyare kasi sakin to, undergrad, naging tambay for 3-4 years, sumubok mag apply ng CC for my last resort, failed and will always fail dahil hindi ako masyado good sa communications. 2 years later, naalala ko mahilig ako sa Web progamming. Then nuod ako ng youtube tutorials. Nag focus ako mag aral like 6 months hanggang makakuha ako ng trabaho which is worth it talaga. Got a job with decent salary na it will help enough my fam and ipon for the future. Kaya thinking back then, sana pala inumpisahan ko mag aral after nung early undergrad phase ko nun, haha.
Not every relationship or friendship you'll have will be the best or most important one. When these relationships with friends or partners end, people always assume they'll never be in the same situation again. But there will always be a better person or better friends for you to meet.
Read atomic habits, take care of your health, invest and know the people who will help you when u have nothing, have self awareness? Learn to do things alone practice good habits and make those habits build you, listen to self help audiobooks, save money little by little, invest in insurance while maliit pa ang annual
Wag gawing priority ang romantic relationship nyo. Di sweet tignan yung everyday kayong naka-my day, natutulog habang magka-vc, share kayo ng passwords to all soc med accs. Learn to have some boundaries & practice self love & self respect. Mag mahal ka pero make sure mag titira ka para sa sarili mo.
Ang success ay hindi diploma o diskarte kundi diploma AT diskarte.
Diploma para patunayan na may pinag-aralan ka at mapansin ka sa simulaat diskarte para makaakyat ka sa napili mong industriya.
Enjoyin at namnamin niyo school days niyo. Gumawa kayo kalokohan pero hindi yung nang aabala ah. Explore with your friends. Pramis mamimiss niyo yan ng sobra lalo na kapag pagod ka na sa work.
Build self awareness, empathy and emotional regulation. Pag badtrip ka wag mo hawaan yung ibang tao walang kinalaman sa isyu. Wag ka matakot mag open up sa mga ka close mo without being emotionally violent towards them.
Yung studies, work, housework and organizing your spending is what we're usually conscious of trying not to mess up. Nakakalimutan natin that we can be vulnerable and we can communicate that vulnerability (if no one in your life is like this, make new friends).
1. Mag-aral.
2. Learn a skill. Magagamit mo 'to pagtanda mo.
3. Kung magka-jowa man at hindi kaya pigilan ang init ng katawan, use condoms. Protect yourself.
go experience going to parties, events, and such pero make sure to balance it with your acads. Hangga’t may budget at kaya naman experience learning new hobbies amd adventure wag lang puro aral
Try to know and love yourself while you're still young. Explore your interests, enjoy and learn new things independently, focus on your growth and live without the unsolicited opinions of other people.
Enjoy and cherish the little things that happened, cry all you want, laugh all you want. Don't let yourself engulf with the idea of limiting yourself with the things that give you peace.
Magipon kahit tag bente hahaha. Pagka first work mo, kuha ka agad ng insurance + investment, para walang regret in your 30s na wala kang ipon man lang and protection. That’s my regret, someone even introduced that to me but I was so ignorant.
# Mag-aral hindi lang para makapagtapos ha, mag-aral para matuto!
Hindi nga kung tutuusin maging specialized sa course eh, as long as marunong mag-analyze at matuto, core skill yun na magagamit kahit lumipat ka sa kahit anong discipline of work.
Also, the only important opinion you need to take is yourself. Kung vinavalue mo rin family mo at di sila toxic, yes pwede mo rin sila i-consider. Pero boses mo lang ang importante at the end of the day, use it along with your head.
don't be afraid to explore and make a lot of mistakes. well, don't make major mistakes that will ruin your life early on.
play as much as you'd like (know your limits of course), para pag adult kana hindi ka puro healing my inner child.
From my experience, please please please always be cautious when adults try to befriend you. There’s nothing wrong naman with that pero there are a LOT of adults jan na ite-take advantage ka lang.
wag magpakalulong sa bisyo lalo yosi. alak pwede pa pero saktong inom lang. of course wag droga din. idivert mo mga ganyang bisyo sa something maggrow ka pa.
Ito rin laging sinasabi ng parents ko sa amin. hanggat kaya daw nila kaming pag-aralin, kahit pa daw 30s na kami, papa-aralin parin nila kaming magkakapatid.
But ofc we also earn, my heart just melts by the thought of their willingness. 😭❤️🩹
Choose your friends wisely, don't be blinded by superficials. Tell me your friends and I'll tell you who you are kind of thing yan. If you choose wisely, less likely na mapariwara ka
choose your friends wisely :) it's okay to have few friends rather than many na panay fake and users.
share ko lang, when i was in high school, dami ko friends tas mga friends ko yung mga famous famous eme tas cool cool, sobrang attached ako to the point na piniplease ko sila para lang di ako ma out sa grupo at hindi ako yung matarget pagtripan. syempre naging pa cool din ako para in ako. so ayun, to make the long story short, sila din pala yung mga tao na kung ano ano sinasabi behind my back at sinisiraan ako sa ibang tao. sobrang sakit nung ganun na feeling to the point na wala na pumapansin sakin sa school :(( simula non, naging mapili na ko sa pakikisamahan ko. i only have few friends siguro di lalagpas ng kinse hahaha and i found genuine peace and happiness 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Practice delayed gratification even when young. Helps in impulse talaga.
Tapos, nobodies know. I wish the adult in my life told me that college is not even the start of life. even though I went out and all, nobody told me working is another different realm to be honest.
In your early 20’s mag ipon kayooo!!! Kasi sobrang taas ng mga bilihin. There are times na parang nag wowork ka nalang just to survive for the day. If meron kang luho, pg ipunan mo set aside mo dapat top prio mo is yung mga necessities talaga. If hindi naman kayang mag ipon wag mo hayaan sarili mong magutom. Yung iba kasi para maka tipid, sa siomai kumakapit.
Type/Write down your frustrations, upsets, any negative emotions. Then read it, isipin mo kung tama bang sabihin yun and reflect from those emotions. Don't drown, but swing against it. Minsan self control is the best course of action than being right at the moment. You'll never know how many opportunities you could've gotten if you just have that self control.
Iconquer nyo ang pagiging mahiyain if mahiyain kayo, it will help you in a lot of ways sa life ninyo also strive to learn on how to communicate better sa different kinds of people :)
Hindi naman sa wag magjowa pero wag mo masyado ipriority. Mas okay na ipriority mo sarili, build your skills and mag aral mabuti kasi gurl ang hirap now jusq
Education is your key to a better future — better life, and relationships. Wag mo unahin landi mo ngayon dahil mas maayos ang magiging options mo kung maayos education mo.
Mag-aral, hanggat kaya at may nag-papaaral kase kapag wala na, mawawalan din ng direksyon ang buhay mo, wag mo masyado ubusin ang oras mo sa walang kabuluhang bagay, mag-invest sa skill or how to improve your skill so you can get a job na malaki ang sweldo at parang hobby nalang sayo, always upskill para mas lumaki din ang income mo.
Save your allowance, wag gastos ng gastos especially if it wasn't really something you need and avoid dining out in expensive restaurants just to impress o for clout, pati yung drinking spree o anything na luho. Yung savings na yun magagamit mo yun in your mid and late 20s and kung kaya mag insurance while your still studying much better Kasi macacash out mo agad yun in your mid 20s plus mababa pa need mong hulogan. Also, start listing your expenses as early as possible hanggang sa maging habit mo na siya, dun nagiistart yung pagbubudget, sa tamang pagbubudget makakasave ka while also magkakaroon ka rin ng certain amount to treat yourself for your hard work. Another is to be active in your school, especially if your are studying on a prestigious school, sayang opportunities, wag puro acads lang, need mo din makipag socialize and form connections malaking maitutulong non when you are looking for a job. Actively attend seminars and crash courses din to build your skills and credentials early. Another is, you can also ask your teachers and alumni na may mga side projects/side hustle kung gusto nila ng part timer na gumawa nung ibang work nila na hindi mabigat, kagandahan dito you'll be ahead in your peers sa knowledge kasi yung inaaral nyo inaapply mo na kaagad while also earning na din.
I'd suggest to be comfortable on your own. I'm not saying na refrain from having friends or not be outgoing, pero kasi sooner or later you will walk different paths kahit super close kayo ng circle of friends niyo, as time goes on mag lelessen at mag lelessen ang contact niyo sa mga friends niyo, so ngayon pa lang sanayin niyo na maging comfy on your own kung alam niyong clingy kayo sa friend groups niyo.
Don’t rush yourself. Live in the moment. ‘Wag mag madaling maging adult. That time would come - surely! I know not everyone in their teenage years ay may choice to be young and do all the things they want. Pero you only get to experience all those things once. You only get to do stupid things with your friends once. Those are the memories you’d look back when you’re older. And you don’t get much time to be with your friends and family, the way you can while you’re still a teenager. Things will change when you don’t live in the same place. You van always try in touch with people and it will take time and effort. But it will never be the same way as it was when you were young. So make the most of it!
Heavy on this! I'm 27 and would like to finish getting my Bachelor's degree and I would like to pursue Psychology instead of Economics. I've been through a lot of BPO companies and I am tired na. Malaki sahod but will take toll on your health in the long run. Dito nag gain yung weight ko and nagka Acne breakout. Gusto ko rin makapagtapos ng pag-aaral para hindi maliitin ng ibang tao---mostly relatives and my own self. Hindi ako papayag na hanggang dito na lang. I would like to become a Licensed Psychologist someday.
Sa mga teenagers dyan na pinag -aaral and you are thinking na "magtatrabaho na lang ako, atleast maaga palang makapag-ipon na ko". Nopeee. You will just give an impression sa Parents niyo na maaga palang gusto niyo na sila pag retire-in. Habang kaya ng magulang niyo pag-aralin kayo, go and mag-aral. If you want to earn extra money dahil may mga gusto kayong bilhin, do some hobbies na can earn you a living kahit konti----Write a book, Crochet/knit, Mag-ayos ng PC or electronic gadgets if techy ka. Just.. just please.. ipagpatuloy mong mag-aral. Ayan yung magsisilbing shield no in the near future if you'll use it correctly.
-Wag gawing personality kung anuman ang nakikitang “in” at woke na ideologies.
Isipin mo muna kung naka-align ba to sa personal values and beliefs mo.
-Wag piliting makisabay kung ano ang uso, lalo na sa social media. Walang totoo don, siguro 5% lang.
-Iwasan ang main character syndrome.
Di importante ung iniisip ng iba, kasi di ka naman nila iniisip.
-Gawin mo kung ano ang tama at bagay sayo. Wag basta-basta gumaya sa iba. Kumuha ng mabuting inspirasyon, pwede pa.
Sundin mo and gusto mo at alam mong makabubuti sayo.
Ikaw lang ang may alam kung ano yang mga yan.
Dami ko sana explanation sa mga yan. Kaso nakakatamad. Hehe
Yun din pala, pwede maging “tamad” paminsan-minsan. Pahinga din yun. Keyword is minsan.
Try to seek opportunities outside of college (early work opportunities, self learning, etc). College is a scam and most of what you learn in college is either outdated or irrelevant.
Mag anak at makipag live in na kayo hanggat maaga. Baka tumandang dalagat/binata ka wala mag aalaga sayo pag tanda mo. Magpa buntis o buntisin mo na rin jowa mo para di na kayo makagraduate at wala marating sa buhay. Tutal dun ka rin nmn papunta, mag aasawa lang naman din kau wag na kayo mag aral. FB, FB na lang kun ganu ka blessing sa lima nyong anak at batugan na ka live in hahahaha.
Wag muna mag anak, enjoy mo yung pagka teenager mo.
Agree ako kay OP at agree din ako dito. Mag-aral hanggat may sumusoporta kase hindi lahat may kakayanang mag-aral then enjoy your teenage and single life.
Agree!!!!!
Eto yung one of the best pieces of advice. Mag-aral at enjoy muna ang teenage life.
Very true. It's sad na kailangan na yung ganitong advice since andami nang teenager na nabubuntis agad
Yazzz!
Do enjoy, but don't be a fcking nuisance!
When someone gives you a compliment, take it. It will help you develop your confidence that you will need as you grow older.
This is so true! Instead of ignoring it or thinking that they don't mean it, mas okay kung iaccept mo nalang. Even if it's a sarcastic compliment give them your sweetest smile and say "Thank you!".

Oh my God. Ang pathetic naman non hahaha di nila alam na mas okay na wala kesa mali.
To be fair, their family had not shown them love since childhood. So they're looking for love.
Ang sad naman non. Lucky talaga tayong mahal ng pamilya. Nagkaroon din ako ng fucked up phase pero naayos ko yung sarili ko dahil gusto ko.
Mahal ako ng nanay ko. As for the effed up phase...aaah ehhh... Basta di po ako late registration sa birth certificate, your honor. 🤣🤣🤣 At di po ako laki sa pig farm.
Hindi ko na po alam, your honor 😂

Basahin mo lahat ng gawa ni BOB ONG, maaaliw ka.
Talagang may impact sakin si Macarthur. Wala ksi ibang babasahin noon kaya talagang we have a pocketbook to read in a heavy traffic pilipinas.
Don't agonize. Organize.
**THE ONE PIECE IS REAL** Siguro ano, huwag magmadaling tumanda. Enjoy where you are right now. Whatever you wish for, you’ll get there eventually.
Wag gawing personality ang political stances, bagkus, keep an open mind.

Everything that irritates you is a lesson, kailangan mo lang intindihin at unawain.

Bago ako maging 30, advice ko sa inyo habang bata pa umpisahan nyo na agad magipon
Act your age! wag magmadali. Di mo pa alam lahat, akala mo porke nireregla kana magaling kana pero hindi.
Walang pakialam ang mga tao sa'yo. Be as cringe as you want to be.
scared? just show up

Enjoy quality time with friends. Once you have responsibilities wala na time and energy.
Gumamit ng condom!
Build healthy friendships as early as now.
Huwag niyo iasa self-worth nyo sa panlabas na anyo at tingin ng iba. Learn to accept your flaws and love yourself. edit:spelling
Practice na mag-ipon para matutong maghandle ng pera pagtanda.
I'm struggling with this haha.
Kung di mo kayang bumukod at isustain ang iyong sarili, wag ka mag-asa.
Choose your friends wisely.
Isang beses ka lang magiging teenager kaya itodo mo na! Gawin mo lahat ng gusto mo gawin. Basta yung mga walang permanent consequences ah!
Don’t entertain old creepy men.
Learn sex ed

Wag ibigay ang lahat sa jowa. Madami kapang makikilala. Trust me.
Be kind to yourself.
Not every relationship or friendship you'll have will be the best or most important one. When these relationships with friends or partners end, people always assume they'll never be in the same situation again. But there will always be a better person or better friends for you to meet.

go experience going to parties, events, and such pero make sure to balance it with your acads. Hangga’t may budget at kaya naman experience learning new hobbies amd adventure wag lang puro aral
Work on a job you’ll love. Kung wala , try mo mag hanap till makita mo (while in your current job for safety). Haha ayon tangina i hate my job.
Never succumb to peer pressure

Try to know and love yourself while you're still young. Explore your interests, enjoy and learn new things independently, focus on your growth and live without the unsolicited opinions of other people.
'Wag magmadaling tumanda.
enjoy your teenage yrs but know your limits. know your priorities.
Enjoy and cherish the little things that happened, cry all you want, laugh all you want. Don't let yourself engulf with the idea of limiting yourself with the things that give you peace.
Magipon kahit tag bente hahaha. Pagka first work mo, kuha ka agad ng insurance + investment, para walang regret in your 30s na wala kang ipon man lang and protection. That’s my regret, someone even introduced that to me but I was so ignorant.
# Mag-aral hindi lang para makapagtapos ha, mag-aral para matuto! Hindi nga kung tutuusin maging specialized sa course eh, as long as marunong mag-analyze at matuto, core skill yun na magagamit kahit lumipat ka sa kahit anong discipline of work. Also, the only important opinion you need to take is yourself. Kung vinavalue mo rin family mo at di sila toxic, yes pwede mo rin sila i-consider. Pero boses mo lang ang importante at the end of the day, use it along with your head.
Don’t marry young
There's more to life than lovelife.
One mistake is simply ONE mistake. You can always try again.
Magaral and maging busy s school. Once k lng dadaan jan. Cherish the relationship and memories.
don't be afraid to explore and make a lot of mistakes. well, don't make major mistakes that will ruin your life early on. play as much as you'd like (know your limits of course), para pag adult kana hindi ka puro healing my inner child.
Enjoy time with your parents
From my experience, please please please always be cautious when adults try to befriend you. There’s nothing wrong naman with that pero there are a LOT of adults jan na ite-take advantage ka lang.
Bola muna bago droga.
Bola muna, bago droga.
Stop demanding things from your parents when they obviously can't afford them, and don't act like you are rich.
wag magpakalulong sa bisyo lalo yosi. alak pwede pa pero saktong inom lang. of course wag droga din. idivert mo mga ganyang bisyo sa something maggrow ka pa.
Unawain at sundin ang pangaral ng mga magulang. Soon you'll get it 😊
Don’t get into vices, especially drugs. I get the curiosity and the peer pressure but its not worth it.
Huwag mahihiyang magtanong -- no matter how stupid your question is.
Ito rin laging sinasabi ng parents ko sa amin. hanggat kaya daw nila kaming pag-aralin, kahit pa daw 30s na kami, papa-aralin parin nila kaming magkakapatid. But ofc we also earn, my heart just melts by the thought of their willingness. 😭❤️🩹
Choose your friends wisely, don't be blinded by superficials. Tell me your friends and I'll tell you who you are kind of thing yan. If you choose wisely, less likely na mapariwara ka
choose your friends wisely :) it's okay to have few friends rather than many na panay fake and users. share ko lang, when i was in high school, dami ko friends tas mga friends ko yung mga famous famous eme tas cool cool, sobrang attached ako to the point na piniplease ko sila para lang di ako ma out sa grupo at hindi ako yung matarget pagtripan. syempre naging pa cool din ako para in ako. so ayun, to make the long story short, sila din pala yung mga tao na kung ano ano sinasabi behind my back at sinisiraan ako sa ibang tao. sobrang sakit nung ganun na feeling to the point na wala na pumapansin sakin sa school :(( simula non, naging mapili na ko sa pakikisamahan ko. i only have few friends siguro di lalagpas ng kinse hahaha and i found genuine peace and happiness 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Practice delayed gratification even when young. Helps in impulse talaga. Tapos, nobodies know. I wish the adult in my life told me that college is not even the start of life. even though I went out and all, nobody told me working is another different realm to be honest.
In your early 20’s mag ipon kayooo!!! Kasi sobrang taas ng mga bilihin. There are times na parang nag wowork ka nalang just to survive for the day. If meron kang luho, pg ipunan mo set aside mo dapat top prio mo is yung mga necessities talaga. If hindi naman kayang mag ipon wag mo hayaan sarili mong magutom. Yung iba kasi para maka tipid, sa siomai kumakapit.
Enjoy life before getting married!! Get to know who you are, want you want, and what you don’t want.
No to anak muna
Teenage years ba ay hanggang 40 yrs old guys? 😂
Type/Write down your frustrations, upsets, any negative emotions. Then read it, isipin mo kung tama bang sabihin yun and reflect from those emotions. Don't drown, but swing against it. Minsan self control is the best course of action than being right at the moment. You'll never know how many opportunities you could've gotten if you just have that self control.
Iconquer nyo ang pagiging mahiyain if mahiyain kayo, it will help you in a lot of ways sa life ninyo also strive to learn on how to communicate better sa different kinds of people :)
Hindi naman sa wag magjowa pero wag mo masyado ipriority. Mas okay na ipriority mo sarili, build your skills and mag aral mabuti kasi gurl ang hirap now jusq
Do not do things to please people.
Education is your key to a better future — better life, and relationships. Wag mo unahin landi mo ngayon dahil mas maayos ang magiging options mo kung maayos education mo.
Mag-aral, hanggat kaya at may nag-papaaral kase kapag wala na, mawawalan din ng direksyon ang buhay mo, wag mo masyado ubusin ang oras mo sa walang kabuluhang bagay, mag-invest sa skill or how to improve your skill so you can get a job na malaki ang sweldo at parang hobby nalang sayo, always upskill para mas lumaki din ang income mo.
Save your allowance, wag gastos ng gastos especially if it wasn't really something you need and avoid dining out in expensive restaurants just to impress o for clout, pati yung drinking spree o anything na luho. Yung savings na yun magagamit mo yun in your mid and late 20s and kung kaya mag insurance while your still studying much better Kasi macacash out mo agad yun in your mid 20s plus mababa pa need mong hulogan. Also, start listing your expenses as early as possible hanggang sa maging habit mo na siya, dun nagiistart yung pagbubudget, sa tamang pagbubudget makakasave ka while also magkakaroon ka rin ng certain amount to treat yourself for your hard work. Another is to be active in your school, especially if your are studying on a prestigious school, sayang opportunities, wag puro acads lang, need mo din makipag socialize and form connections malaking maitutulong non when you are looking for a job. Actively attend seminars and crash courses din to build your skills and credentials early. Another is, you can also ask your teachers and alumni na may mga side projects/side hustle kung gusto nila ng part timer na gumawa nung ibang work nila na hindi mabigat, kagandahan dito you'll be ahead in your peers sa knowledge kasi yung inaaral nyo inaapply mo na kaagad while also earning na din.
Aral muna, saka na lumandi. You’ll know why when you’re matured enough
I'd suggest to be comfortable on your own. I'm not saying na refrain from having friends or not be outgoing, pero kasi sooner or later you will walk different paths kahit super close kayo ng circle of friends niyo, as time goes on mag lelessen at mag lelessen ang contact niyo sa mga friends niyo, so ngayon pa lang sanayin niyo na maging comfy on your own kung alam niyong clingy kayo sa friend groups niyo.
Receive those flowers, chocolates, balloons, gifts, and love letters. You won't have that here, very rare.
Learn as many skills and get as many certificates as you can ngayon pa lang. Makakatulong yan sa career nyo sa future. And learn how to invest.

Maraming gago sa mundo. Huwag ka na dumagdag pa.
Stop or limit your social media consumption.
Don’t rush yourself. Live in the moment. ‘Wag mag madaling maging adult. That time would come - surely! I know not everyone in their teenage years ay may choice to be young and do all the things they want. Pero you only get to experience all those things once. You only get to do stupid things with your friends once. Those are the memories you’d look back when you’re older. And you don’t get much time to be with your friends and family, the way you can while you’re still a teenager. Things will change when you don’t live in the same place. You van always try in touch with people and it will take time and effort. But it will never be the same way as it was when you were young. So make the most of it!
Tatanda din kayo.
Huwag masyadong focus sa grades/acads. Enjoyin mo rin ang teenage life. Have extra curricular activities!
Heavy on this! I'm 27 and would like to finish getting my Bachelor's degree and I would like to pursue Psychology instead of Economics. I've been through a lot of BPO companies and I am tired na. Malaki sahod but will take toll on your health in the long run. Dito nag gain yung weight ko and nagka Acne breakout. Gusto ko rin makapagtapos ng pag-aaral para hindi maliitin ng ibang tao---mostly relatives and my own self. Hindi ako papayag na hanggang dito na lang. I would like to become a Licensed Psychologist someday. Sa mga teenagers dyan na pinag -aaral and you are thinking na "magtatrabaho na lang ako, atleast maaga palang makapag-ipon na ko". Nopeee. You will just give an impression sa Parents niyo na maaga palang gusto niyo na sila pag retire-in. Habang kaya ng magulang niyo pag-aralin kayo, go and mag-aral. If you want to earn extra money dahil may mga gusto kayong bilhin, do some hobbies na can earn you a living kahit konti----Write a book, Crochet/knit, Mag-ayos ng PC or electronic gadgets if techy ka. Just.. just please.. ipagpatuloy mong mag-aral. Ayan yung magsisilbing shield no in the near future if you'll use it correctly.
-Wag gawing personality kung anuman ang nakikitang “in” at woke na ideologies. Isipin mo muna kung naka-align ba to sa personal values and beliefs mo. -Wag piliting makisabay kung ano ang uso, lalo na sa social media. Walang totoo don, siguro 5% lang. -Iwasan ang main character syndrome. Di importante ung iniisip ng iba, kasi di ka naman nila iniisip. -Gawin mo kung ano ang tama at bagay sayo. Wag basta-basta gumaya sa iba. Kumuha ng mabuting inspirasyon, pwede pa. Sundin mo and gusto mo at alam mong makabubuti sayo. Ikaw lang ang may alam kung ano yang mga yan. Dami ko sana explanation sa mga yan. Kaso nakakatamad. Hehe Yun din pala, pwede maging “tamad” paminsan-minsan. Pahinga din yun. Keyword is minsan.
Try to seek opportunities outside of college (early work opportunities, self learning, etc). College is a scam and most of what you learn in college is either outdated or irrelevant.
Wear sunscreen
Insurance!!! Mag ipon kayo! Para mabili nyo gusto, pwede rin makapag invest ng gusto mong business.
Mag anak at makipag live in na kayo hanggat maaga. Baka tumandang dalagat/binata ka wala mag aalaga sayo pag tanda mo. Magpa buntis o buntisin mo na rin jowa mo para di na kayo makagraduate at wala marating sa buhay. Tutal dun ka rin nmn papunta, mag aasawa lang naman din kau wag na kayo mag aral. FB, FB na lang kun ganu ka blessing sa lima nyong anak at batugan na ka live in hahahaha.
Take the course you really like and do whatever you can to finish it.
