Do you have a nighttime routine? I have been suffering from insomnia for as long as I can remember. I hardly get enough sleep, and it's taking a toll on my cognitive ability. These days, I often zone out. Quite forgetful, too....

@n.J Hmm I've also read somewhere that oats help. I eat oatmeal for breakfast regularly. I'll try to eat oatmeal tonight to see if it works.

@n.J I haven't gone to the doctor because I am pretty sure I would be given sleeping pills. I've read horrible side effects of sedation.

There’s this teacher I know who was originally from the Philippines—he's been teaching for years—who just got let go, or maybe pushed to resign. No one’s saying much, but the group chat’s buzzing about how he’s been struggling...

@n.J @Raine38 Filipina professors, Pinoy language center owners, and goal-oriented people now surround me. They are extremely humble Pinoys. I felt God orchestrated everything to pull me out of a situation that was not good for me.

@n.J @Raine38 In hindsight, I would not have been able to meet my people if they had not done that to me. I am in the process of healing. I no longer see them in my dreams anymore haha.

@n.J @Raine38 Yes, they ganged up on me. I did not just distance myself from them; it was friendship over. My husband also warned them that he would report them to the authorities if they didn't stop. This may sound condescending. They came from a destitute family...

My 8-year-old daughter, despite being born in the Philippines, speaks English fluently. Her cousins and friends around our old neighborhood also speak English. You can hardly hear her cousins and playmates speak Tagalog. Suffice...

Have you noticed how much kindness goes floating around here on this site? People do tease and joke about people being bossy or whatever, but overwhelmingly they are kind. Lotters go out of their way to meet up. They listen to...

@n.J Reading comments...hahaha. Sometimes, it is more entertaining or irritating than the video itself. There are substantial comments and there are flat-out rude, condescending comments.
