I was checking my Credit card balance and downloaded a SOA when I noticed that the annual fee amounting to P1550 or $27 was already reflected.
In the past years, I would only call the customer service for the waiving of charges or reversal. What was good at BPI bank, upon evaluation of your records approval was quick. Right during the conversation with the phone banker. However, now that I am staying at home, the problem is I don't have a phone!

I tried talking to BEA yet I was instructed to call their hotline. Fortunately, I found a contact number for my mobile. Just I thought the call wouldn't push through.
I find it a waste of money to pay but it seems that's the only choice. However, my my sister in-law sent me a message that she will be going to my house, take care of my little boy. Then, I can come over to her's to call as she has a phone! Thank you!
Almost twelve noon, no wonder I still feel hot while walking even though I had an umbrella. As much as I wanted to wait for the later time, that was not feasible as my sister in-law was only on break from work.
It's been raining the past week, no wonder why mosses are so healthy growing at the wall beside the road. Weew! That few minutes of walk made me sweat!
Guess what? My request was approved, it will be treated as advance payment on my next billing. Thankful as that was enough to pay my monthly electric bill .
Since 7/11 is just a few walks away, I decided to drop by; I need some cash. This is one thing that I would say I like here, if an ATM is not available at the convenience store that means walking farther at the city hall. Still my bank is not available here , bank charge is $0.32 per transaction.
Wait, what about some custard? It looks delicious but cookies too!
Which cookies would you like to buy? The white one or the yellow? The bakery staff asked me.
Huh? What was the difference? I asked. Guessed she answered?
I don't Know.
Was it only me who got irritated with this answer? So I answered back.
Why do don't know? You should KNOW!
Forgive me for showing some attitude, blaming the hot weather!
And a lot of choices! Did buy some more still though.
Sister in-law was sending photos in our group chat and saw that my JC boy was behaving so well! Good job son! Still I decided to go back home.
Even though I badly wanted to drop by here and have a cup of coffee! I told my sister in-law I'll be fast so I had to stick to what we agreed or else she won't babysit my baby next time.
But my feet stopped by at the edge of the road upon seeing this lovely flower in bloom at the wall. Passers by are not minding it even before, only now that I noticed this. Could it be that it's just now that flowers sprout?
Anyone want fresh buko juice? $0.08 per cup. Yes, fresh and pure as in Manila saw the vendor adding a lot of sugar in the juice as he added ice. Even if I didn't witness it, still I would know he did upon tasting. Well, I grew up drinking, even with an empty stomach.
The cup was perfect to quench my thirst from walking under the humid weather. Might ask why I didn't take public transportation? Well it's not available here .
After I settled back at home, I harvested some moringa as they said this is good to increase milk supply. HOPE so!
Ah, I can't believe how I accomplished everything in just an hour! Actually I noticed that even in thirty minutes I could do a lot now unlike when I didn't have a baby. That was only for scrolling on Facebook, lol.
