Life is so Boring without Electricity!



Yes it is! Since we are still experiencing a Daily Rotational Brownout Schedule here in our city. I really feel so tired about this. According to the news, UNLESS it rains soon, the National Power Corp. (Napocor) would be forced to shut down the Agus and Pulangi systems depriving Mindanao of 53 percent of its installed power capacity.

Rainy season here starts in June so that means we will still experience power interruption until June? It's even getting worse since April and May is summer time here in the Philippines.

Here's our daily brownout schedule:

Monday - 1:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Tuesday - 8:00 am - 1:00 pm
Wednesday - 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Thursday/Friday/Saturday/ - rotating brownout time schedule as I had mentioned above.
Good thing every Sunday we don't have a brownout schedule since this is our Church Sunday Service and family day.



Life is indeed so boring without Electricity! Specially when the schedule is from 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm, its so hot here in our place! Our sweat is pouring and we can't sleep since we can't turn on our aircon and electric fan. I really feel so pity looking at my daughter who is sweating all around her body. I just used a fan but still it can't help trigger the heat.

When the schedule is from 6:00pm to 10:00pm, its really dark around specially outside. We just light a candle to have some light. Good thing my hubby fixed our emergency light. But its still so boring! We have nothing to do. We just sit in and wait for the electricity to come back.

What's even worst? Our business is so affected! Since we have an internet cafe and of course we mainly use the electricity to run this business. Our primary household income is very much affected.

I also heard that there are some establishments here in our city who already pulled out some of their workers and others have deducted their salaries because of this power interruption schedule that greatly affects their business.

We need God's mercy and miracle for this and we are praying for the rain so we can have a stable electricity here in our city.

  Mga higala! It's that time of the year when the Province of Bukidnon’s beloved and famous KAAMULAN FESTIVAL will be held again this March 23 to April 23, 2023! Usually held in Malaybalay City from the last week of March to about mid-April, Kaamulan Festival is an ethnic festival highlighting the indigenous culture of Bukidnon, and honoring the custom and traditions of the seven (7) original tribal groups in the province namely - the Bukidnon, Higaonon, Talaandig, Manobo, Matigsalug, Tigwahanon and Umayamnon. This is the gathering of the 7 tribes to celebrate and for thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest. The festival name is from a Binukid term "amul" which means gather. Kaamulan Festival has become one of my favorite festivals in Mindanao. I am very much amazed with the colors, musical instruments used, the graceful movements of every performers during the street dancing, and the gigantic entries in the float parade. So without further ado, here's the updated Schedu

Impulsive Christmas Shopping

Did you know that impulsive Christmas shopping is a problem which plagues many of us during this holiday season? Some of the problems which often comes out from impulsive Christmas shopping are going over budget, buying frivolous items and even forgetting about items that were already purchased. While there are many problems which are often associated with impulsive Christmas shopping, it is important to remember that sometimes impulsive Christmas shopping is a good idea. When you see an item that you just know will make the perfect Christmas gift for a friend or relative and purchase the item without giving it any thought that is the exact definition of impulsive shopping.  However, it is also not necessarily a bad thing. Buying a gift on impulse is not a problem when the gift you purchase is a great gift for the intended recipient but impulse Christmas shopping becomes problematic when it causes the shopper to go over budget or purchase silly items they wouldn’t normally buy.
