Philippines during the Pandemic

The pandemic experience is different from one person to another. I know its weird but I have been feeling that something is about to happen whenever I was in Makati. The company I work for is in Makati, the business capital of the Philippines. I am just a regular employee who works the 8-6 grind.

I pass this place on my way to work, this is far from my workplace though

I can't explain it but I have shared this "weird feeling"  with some officemates during lunch outs. That Makati have this"apocalypse vibe" for months from 2019 to the week before the lockdown that closed majority of business in Metro Manila. I laughed with my officemates while we talked about the "apocalypse vibe" I've been having then. But that feeling did not go away. So when the news about the Wuhan virus infection broke out, I was thinking that some tourist may bring it here. Which happened.

I took this picture inside the P2P bus that I usually take to go home before the quarantine period. The fare was increased so it took them longer to fill the bus, and only a few did not wear a mask.

And now people are suffering from the economic hardships brought on by the pandemic.

No Documentation Loans!

I was spending my free time (Sundays) with some of our neighbors on our backyard when the talk centered into mortagages and loans. It seems that my husband and I were'nt the only ones thinking of how to pay our home's mortgage every payday.

Anna is even thinking of swapping their home for a condo unit (much more affordable to his and her husband's combined monthly salary. But Lisa the more positive thinker in our group suggests we try to apply for loans. A loan can really be a problem the moment you're late for your payment. So most of us eschewed the idea. Lisa though is persistent so she immediately scanned in her mini notebook for a lending company that she thinks will suit each of our needs and individual financial range.

One of the websites that we dissected was Five Star. Five Star, to our surprise, offers 10 -15-20-25-30-40 year loan programs! And 0% -1% -2% -3%-5% -10% - 20% down payment/ltv options are also being offered.

Five Star even offers NO VERIFICATION or NO DOCUMENTATION LOANS for those who are employed and with good credit! Now that's some kind of icing!

jade bracelet

Happy Easter Everyone!

Hope you've had a meaningful holy week with your family and friends.

I tried not to mind the hot weather by doing things I've been meaning to do, like my wire jewelry hobby.

An officemate ordered a jade bracelet so I made one last weekend. I used star shaped jade, 10k 5mm gold wire, some 10k gold balls, and a 10k classic clasp.

Here's another picture of the bracelet I did. My officemates really liked it. They say it's cute!
