Halimbawa ng balita journalistic

Nabasa ko.
Madami akong gustong sabihin sa’yo pero sa palagay ko huli na din ang lahat. Mga pagkakataon natin sa isa’t isa, lumipas na. Wala namang mali sa’yo. Sweet, mabait, matalino, matulungin, ilan lamang yan sa mga salita na ginagamit ko pag naikkwento kita sa iba.
Nagulat ako sa sinabi mo. Hindi ko inakala na magkakagusto ka sa isang babaeng tulad ko. Boyish, matapang, warfreak, palengkera… at marami pang iba. Sabi mo nga “You always say na walang tatanggap sa ugali mo pero nandito naman ako.” Sa totoo lang, mas takot ako na masira ung pagkakaibigan natin dahil sa pag- ibig. Alam ko sa sarili ko na mahal kita, hindi ko lang alam kung anong klaseng pagmamahal. Nakakatawa nga naman ang tadhana kasi hanggang ngayon ay hindi na muli tayo nagkausap. Aminado akong nailang ako, hindi dahil sa hindi kita gusto, kun’di dahil hindi ko lang din alam kung seryoso ka ba sa akin. Parang ang standard na abot ko lang sa type mo ay pagiging chinita, maliban don ay wala na.
Namimiss ko iyong mga panahon na nagkukulitan tayo. Mga araw na kumakain tayo kasama ang mga kaibigan natin. Mga araw na magkatabi tayo sa fx at nakasandal sa balikat ng isa’t isa dahil sa pagod at antok. Ngayon wala na lahat.
Balita ko lumipat ka na ng tirahan sabi ng katulong ninyo. Nasa Pasig ka na, ako naiwan dito. Minsan naririnig ko padin ang mga tawa mo sa mga lugar kung saan tayo ay madalas magkita o kumain. Minsan nakikita ko ang anino mo sa bawat dumadaan na matangkad sa eskinita.
Ngayon, naririnig ko na lamang ang pangalan mo sa bibig ng iba. Sa kapatid ko na kinekwento sa akin kung ano nanamang nakakatawang bagay ang ginawa mo sa trabaho. Sa mga kaibigan natin na tinatawanan ang mga rants mo tungkol sa init sa Pilipinas. Sa sarili ko na pilit na sinasabi sa sarili na okay lang na wala ka na, madami pa naman akong makikilala.
Hindi lang ikaw ang nawalan ng kaibigan, ako din.

This is my first time posting here so PLEASE BEAR WITH ME I REALLY NEED TO LET THIS OFF MY CHEST.
So ayun na nga I (F24) laging may nalalaman about his (M20) exes which is waaaay different sa mga kinukwento nya. Paiba iba ang mga kwento nya about his exes and nahuhuli ko lang na hindi totoo mga kwento by going through his phone. He told me he has 3 exes and he was single for more than a year before he met me. He also told me na lahat ng exes nya, wala na syang balita and nakaunfriend na sa lahat ng soc meds nya. May nakita akong tagged post ng girl sa kanya way back 2021 and asked him sino yon and told me "tropa" daw nya and yung mga tagged posts na yon was intentional para pagselosin yung 2nd ex nya since pangganti daw dahil nahuli nyang nagccheat sa kanya si 2nd ex. Edi si ante nyo pinaniwalaan. Later on, that girl na always nagtatag sa kanya nabasa ko sa messenger was ex (i concluded na she was the first ex based sa mga nabasa ko) nya pala so yung sinabi nyang pangselos was di totoo. I also found out na friends pa din sila ni 2nd ex (which he always tell me na 3rd ex nya) Lastly, recently lang, nalaman ko na he was in a relationship (june-july '23) before he met me (jan '24) which is also different sa kwento nya na single sya for more than a year.
What should I do? Should I confront him about sa mga nalaman ko na: 1. yung sinasabi nyang tropa na nagtatag sa kanya "pangselos" was actuay his ex 2. hindi 3rd ex si 2nd ex 3. he was in a relationship until last june-july 2023 (we met jan 2024) or hayaan ko na lang?
DI KO KASI MAGETS YUNG POINT NA BAKIT NEED MAGSINUNGALING ABOUT HIS EXES?!?!??? IF SINABI NAMAN NYA NG TOTOO LAHAT FOR SURE WALA LANG NAMAN SAKIN YON HAYY SEND HELP

Ang daming colleges and iba iba sila ng inooffer na semester. I planned to go sa Mapua kasi 4 sems sila and balita ko mabilis maka grad and possible ang less than 4 years graduation. Pero they'll switch to 3 sems nalang ata next year and im contemplating whether or not i should still continue.

Siguro some of you hindi kilala kung sino to ano? admin lang naman siya dati at siya ang na gangbang ng grupo ni ~ oppps can't spill. Yan ang reason kaya siya nag resign 🤭🤭🤭 Brainy din siya e kasi she knows na may makakaalam kaya nag resign 🤭🤭 balita ko ngayon nagpopokpok na siya sa mga afam infairness ha lumelevel up ang hustle ni ateng 🤭🤭

Hello po. Sana may makatulong sakin.
Yung gcash ko kasi may limit na 500k at ginagamit namin para sa tindahan kaso bigla nalang naging 100k.
Nag try na kami iconnect ang UB namin at mag cash in pero ganun pa rin so nag raise na ko ng ticket at nagchat sa gigi. Kaso 2 weeks mahigit na wala pa din balita. Puro assigned na daw sa agent nila pero wala talaga. Baka po may makatulong mag explain bakit nangyari yun sa account na naging 100k nalang at paano mababalik sa 500k. Salamat po!

Naranasan niyo rin ba ito? When we were in our 20s almost same ang sahod namin kaya pareho kaming matipid when looking for accommodations and spending sa travels.
10 yrs later marami nang nagbago sa buhay namin. Mahirap makahanap ng kasama sa travels dahil may responsibilidad na sila sa pamilya or maraming binabayaran like house and/or car
Kapag nagkakataon naman na we travel together, as a childfree tita na may 6 figure monthly salary, I can afford to splurge, pero yung mga kaibigan ko usually hindi
Masaya ako to spend time with them, yun naman ang point why I go with them. Pero minsan I end up planning to return to that destination, solo, to book the fancy hotel na may pool and spa and do the activities I wasn't able to do before.
Hindi nila alam how much I earn. Low key lang ako dahil walang gusto ng mayabang. Isa pa ayoko na may mangutang sa akin. But the income gap is one of the reasons I travel solo.
What if on a friend's birthday, I invite her to go somewhere, tapos sagutin ko na yung accommodations and maybe a nice tour na magugustuhan niya as a gift? Para walang burden sa kanya at ma-enjoy ko ang comfortable travel na hindi puro tipid. Has anyone tried this?
How do you deal with income gap and enjoy your trip with loved ones?
Edit: Maraming salamat sa lahat na nagshare ng kanilang experiences and advice!
Nagstand-out yung mga nagtanong kung ano ba ang priority ko. Based on your advice, ganito gagawin ko next time
If the goal is to spend quality time with my friends, then what's important is for us to catch up with each other's lives. Whether we do it during dinner at a restaurant or out of town, ang importante is we maintain our relationship
If the goal is to explore a destination, pwede kami magkaroon ng free for all day or I could stay behind for a few days
So during a long trip, halimbawa, on the first few days ang priority is having fun with friends, and then later I can splurge and do activities na hindi kayang gawin with them
If it's a short trip, I can offer to shoulder the cost of accommodation para mas kumportable kami
I've met a few travel buddies naman, pero clingy ako sa old friends ko haha. Mas matagal na kaming magkakakilala after all. At pagdating sa exploration, iba talaga ang freedom ng solo travel

Hello everyone! I just want to ask if normal lang ba na naaapektuhan ako sa nagiging mood ng boyfriend ko? Halimbawa malungkot siya then parang malulungkot din ako kapag badtrip siya badtrip din ako. What am i supposed to do kaya?

pano po ba sisimulan? need po ba kumuha ng mga permit or bayaran kung saan ka pwepwesto? halimbawa sa kanto nyo ganon po. salamt po getting ideas to start up thanks.

Hi Guys, question lang meron po bang promotion this mid year? usually diba ganitong time na tayo kinakausap ng People Lead naten if meron man magandang balita. Thanks sa mga sasagot

Hello, anong stance nyo sa hatian ng expenses with your bf/gf? Lagi ba dapat 50/50? Halimbawa 100k yung income nyo pero sa kanya 500k, may bearing ba ito o 50/50 pa rin all the time?

Looking for a book (Tagalog or English) or a film, (in any language) where the story is kind of like Pambihirang Harana or Sabi-sabi by Cesca.
Lyrics for Pambihirang Harana:
Kunwari ay 'di ko alam
Ang iyong nararamdaman
Sabihin na lang 'di ko narinig
Ang mga usap-usapan
Magbibingi-bingihan muna ako
Dahil mahirap ang umasa sa hindi sigurado
'Wag mag-alala, 'di ko sasabihin
Naiintindihan ko kung hindi mo maamin
Lyrics for Sabi-sabi:
Usap-usapan na naman tayong dal'wa
Meron na namang kumalat na balita
Sabi-sabi ng ating mga kaibigan
Iba daw ang pagtingin ko sa'yo
Parang ewan lang, 'di ba?
Puro bola ang mapapala natin sa kanila
'Sensya na alam kong nakakailang
'Di bale wala 'kong gusto sa'yo

Ang utos sa inyo, i-block ang may duda, may tanong, iba diwa, pero lahat kayo nasa fb post ko, nag-aabang ng latest update...
Para matupad ang utos, kayo ang iba-block ko... 😁 Ang toxic
Eh di tahimik ang buhay, dito kayo sa reddit magbasa ng latest...
Mas updated kami sa balita ng mga locales...
Kaysa dyan sa inyo, kung ano lang i feed ng worker, yun nalang ang alam nyo...

Armenia and India will form a new working group for defense cooperation

Defense ministries of AM and IN held a meeting on Tuesday. They discussed the 2024-2025 cooperation plan and the creation of a new working group to coordinate the cooperation.
source,

from PM Pashinyan's speech at Copenhagen Democracy Summit:

PASHINYAN: Democracy has indeed become a reality in Armenia. Before the 2018 Velvet Revolution, massive electoral frauds were the usual companion of elections in Armenia. There was no trust among the citizens that there was a real chance for them to elect the government.
Now the situation is totally different; citizens know that they are powerful enough to decide. The two general elections that were held in Armenia after the Velvet Revolution have been acknowledged as democratic, free, and competitive both by the Armenian society and the international community.
Armenia made huge progress in strengthening the democratic institutions, an achievement reflected in reputable democracy indexes:
(a) Now we are the 43rd in the Reporters Without Borders’ Freedom of Speech index, compared to 79th place in 2017.
(b) Categorized as having partially free internet in 2017 by Freedom House, now we enjoy the status of a country with free internet.
(c) In Transparency International’s Corruption Perception Index, Armenia is now 62nd instead of 107th in 2017.
(d) In the Economist Intelligence Unit’s democracy index we are 84th compared to 111th in 2017.
In order to assess this progress, it's essential to note that alongside democratic reforms, Armenia has been contending with external security challenges: the 44-day war in Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijan's invasion of Armenia in 2021 and 2022 and the occupation of over 200 km² amid inaction by [Russia's] CSTO, the forced displacement of over 100,000 Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh, have cast doubts among Armenian citizens weather democracy is the right choice. So, democracy needs to prove its efficiency while dealing with security, economic and humanitarian challenges.
We are pleased with the deployment of EU monitoring mission alongside the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, and we welcome EU’s decision to expand its capacity. On the other hand, we hope for the inclusion of Armenia into the European Peace Facility and in this regard, we rely on the support of all EU member states [Hungary].
A new set of commitments aimed at strengthening Armenia’s economic resilience, state institutions, and addressing the humanitarian needs of refugees has been taken on by the European Union and United States during the high-level meeting on April 5 in Brussels. The rapid and effective implementation of those commitments is of utmost importance.
Despite all the challenges, we believe that the real and most aspiring companion for democracy is lasting and sustainable peace. My government took the share of its responsibility for this. Recently we reached an agreement with Azerbaijan to launch the delimitation of our interstate borders on the basis of the Almaty Declaration of 1991. That means that during the delimitation we should simply reproduce the Soviet-era administrative borders. This is the implementation of the agreement reached in Prague in 2022. Now it is time to incorporate and reflect those agreements in the peace treaty and have it signed.
Another key point for our regional stability is the «Crossroads of Peace», project, initiated by my government. This project implies that Armenia and Azerbaijan restore and open transport and other communications in accordance with the sovereignty and jurisdiction of the countries through which they pass, and comply with the principles of equality and reciprocity. These elements of the concept were agreed upon during the July 2023 meeting with Ilham Aliyev and Charles Michel. //

... Politico reporter's Q&A with Pashinyan

REPORTER: [Ex-NATO leader] Anders Fogh Rasmussen called your neighbor an autocracy. You are in a very difficult geopolitical and geographical position. How do you solve the security problem in that environment?
PASHINYAN: I would not like to comment on the internal situation of our neighboring countries. Democracy fully corresponds to the mentality of our people. It is a strategy for our government, it is our political belief, it is also our political identity. The members of our political team have spent most of their lives fighting for democracy, the rule of law, and freedom of speech. Now we have the opportunity to realize all these values in our country.
The security situation was complicated because of the regional and global situation; the world order is collapsing at the moment. My assessment is, and I have had occasion to say this publicly, that the 2020 war was a prelude to further developments. And now the main issue is security.
What is our strategic point of view, how are we going to guarantee the security of our country? Recently, I gave a speech in our parliament, where I said that the most important tool for ensuring security is a foreign policy based on legitimacy. This is the reason why we so often speak about the 1991 Almaty Declaration.
It is very important that during the 2022 Prague meeting, two very important agreements were reached. Armenia and Azerbaijan recognize each other's territorial integrity and sovereignty on the basis of the Almaty Declaration and will use it as the basis for the border demarcation. This is the reason why I said that we are not drawing a new border, we just need to reproduce the existing one on the ground. This process is happening right now, and I hope that we will continue it steadfastly.
REPORTER: The border conflict that has occurred in recent years has had a negative impact on relations with Russia and Russia's role for Armenia. What would you say about this?
PASHINYAN: Armenia is a member of CSTO. We are officially a CSTO member, but I have announced that we have frozen our participation.
REPORTER: So are you still a member or...?
PASHINYAN: It is a matter for further discussion, but it is very important to record the current situation. A crisis arose in our relations after Azerbaijani troops invaded Armenia, and according to CSTO procedures, the Organization and its member states had to support Armenia in this situation. But even after the formal application, the CSTO refused to take any concrete steps, and in fact, that is the main reason for freezing our participation in the CSTO at all levels.
REPORTER: Do you expect the West to occupy the current vacuum and ensure your security?
PASHINYAN: We are diversifying our foreign relations in all spheres. Now we are developing defense cooperation with India, France, and other countries. We have a certain cooperation with the European Union because as I mentioned, we are happy about the deployment of the EU Civilian Observation Mission on the border. It is a civilian mission but in a way, it is a new factor for the security of our region. This is the first time that the European Union participates in the security agenda of Armenia.
REPORTER: Would you like to become an EU member?
PASHINYAN: We are waiting for the EU's decision to include Armenia in the European Peace Facility. We also hope to start visa liberalization negotiations, and last year I announced in the European Parliament that Armenia is ready to be as close to the European Union as the European Union deems it possible. This is our position.
REPORTER: Can you elaborate on what initiatives Armenia is taking in the fight against corruption?
PASHINYAN: We have made huge progress but have not eradicated corruption from Armenia. We must continue to be persistent in the agenda of democratic reforms. This is the reason why cooperation with the European Union is of utmost importance for us because today the European Union is our main partner in the implementation of our democratic reform agenda. We hope that the European Union, as well as the USA, will increase their support to Armenia in the implementation of democratic reforms, because, as I said, democracy is a strategy for us.
By the way, in 2019 we started a Strategic Dialogue with the USA, and today we see the strengthening of our cooperation with the European Union. We recently had a tripartite meeting with the participation of the USA, EU, and Armenia. It was an unprecedented format, where we adopted a huge agenda of institutional and economic reforms. It is also very important that we receive more tangible support from the EU and the US to address the humanitarian needs of the Nagorno Karabakh refugees because it is a very sensitive and emotional issue for us.
REPORTER: In which year would you like Armenia to become a member of the EU?
PASHINYAN: This year [as soon as possible]. //

former regime continues to hold protests and briefly shut down roads in Yerevan with demands for PM Pashinyan's resignation

ԳԼՈՒԽ 1
Dozens of participants were detained and released the same day for blocking roads. The detentions decreased from 170 on Monday to ~63 on Tuesday. They want Pashinyan to resign or to be impeached. The protest organizers visited universities to gather student supporters, some of whom joined them with a dance. The organizers also stopped by at a bakery where they were given free food.
A felony investigation was launched after a police vehicle, "with the sirens on", struck a reporter on the street. In another instance, an investigation was launched against a protester who brought a long sword. One other case was launched over alleged threats made on Facebook by a Galstanyan fan who wants scores of people to be beaten in dalans and exiled from Armenia, "մենակ էտ դեպքում էս սրբազան հողը կմաքրվի էս տեսակ շան ծնունդներից, ուրիշ ձև չկա!!!!"
ԳԼՈՒԽ 2
A ruling faction member of Yerevan City Council complained about "harassment" by opposition figures who are attempting to convince ruling party members to join the protests and the impeachment.
RULING MEMBER: That is not how it works. No one will join you with that conduct. People will join if they see you have a legitimate agenda with trustworthy leaders. Instead, you are "ethnically cleansing" the citizens of Armenia [referring to one opposition speaker telling non-Armenians to leave] և հեռու չէ են օրը երբ դուք գուցե ասեք որ հայ լինելու համար պետք է Հայկ նահապետից տեղեկանք բերել: //
ԳԼՈՒԽ 3
Yesterday the protest co-organizer Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan said he received a report suggesting that the Deputy Rector of Yerevan State University supposedly urged deans and others to retaliate against students who joined the protests. Galstanyan said he was unsure whether the report was true, but decided to read it out loud anyway. On Tuesday he rallied his supporters to the backyard of the University where he demanded to speak with the Deputy Rector for clarification.
The Deputy Rector went downstairs and greeted Galstanyan, who shook her hand but wouldn't let it go for an uncomfortably long period, prompting her to ask him to let go of her hand. The Deputy Rector declared that whatever Galstanyan read about her was a defamatory lie.
GALSTANYAN: I never believed it myself.
DEPUTY RECTOR: Then you should not have said out loud something you did not believe.
GALSTANYAN: Listen, there is a recorded fact...
DEPUTY RECTOR: Where is that "recorded fact"?
GALSTANYAN: It was on the media. As I said yesterday, I had no verification that it was true, which is why we came here to clarify it. If it's false, then I apologize.
DEPUTY RECTOR: Thank you. //
The Deputy Rector urged the protest organizers not to enter the building or disrupt the classes, and that "anyone who wants to follow you can follow you, anyone who wants to stay in classrooms should stay in classrooms".
The angry Deputy Rector left. Another university official criticized Galstanyan for not checking the information before reading it to his followers. Galstanyan said he stands behind his words, and that he was "just reading what was on the media", but reiterated that he had no intention to insult the Deputy Rector.
ԳԼՈՒԽ 4
Galstanyan and his supporters visited the monument dedicated to Operation Nemesis. He praised the figures behind Nemesis for "assuming personal responsibility". In front of the crowd, Galstanyan introduced Hambig Sassounian who recently joined his movement. He pointed to the Nemesis monument and said Sassounian is "one of the successors, one of the brightest people." In related news, on Sunday a ruling faction MP complained about receiving death threats with reference to Operation Nemesis.
ԳԼՈՒԽ 5
DANIEL IOANNESIAN (NGO chief): When this protest dies down, we need to discuss the following: (1) The transparency of political and media funding. There are some regulations in place, but they are incomplete and easily bypassed. For example, I'd like to know who paid for Archbishop Galstanyan's giant stage in Republic Square. In 2018 Pashinyan organized a fundraising for it and disclosed a detailed report. (2) Should the media organizations that do not respect the rules of financial transparency enjoy all the mechanisms for the protection of journalists? (3) Are the customs authorities confident that the church is not facilitating the business activities of certain figures disguised as donations? (4) Is it fair for the church and clergy members not to pay taxes? Should they be able to have a Bently and LX570 without paying taxes? [The "Bentley" is based on a true story.]
ԳԼՈՒԽ 6
Archbishop's fans spotted Miss Armenia 2003 and a H1 host Lusine Tovmasyan drinking a coffee at a Yerevan café and approached her.
PROTESTER: (unintelligable)
LUSINE: I was here drinking coffee yesterday, and a year before that.
PROTESTER: Why have you not joined the holy struggle?
LUSINE: Լավ եկեք թարգեք, շատ զզվելի ա, էնքան զզվելի ա․ //

Armenian government has upgraded other diplomatic channels to reduce reliance on ARF's diaspora structures in the US, says pro-West NGO chief

KHURSHUDYAN: The status of the Armenian Ambassador to the U.S. [Lilith Makunts] has been significantly upgraded. I won't go into specifics because it's tied to our neighbors, but she plays an interesting role there. We have great conditions for the U.S. Congress to pressure Azerbaijan. This is outside of ARF's lobbyist groups in the U.S.
REPORTER: ARF Hay Dat's recent conduct has been shameful.
KHURSHUDYAN: And its influence on the Lemkin Institute was obvious. //
Yesterday Kurshudyan accused the Lemkin Institute of caving to ARF's pressure and meddling into Armenia's internal affairs to assist the protests by the pro-Russian former regime.
KHURSHUDYAN: Lemkin Institute accused Pashinyan's April 24 genocide remembrance day statement of containing "victim blaming". Lemkin did not comment on Pashinyan's statement for several weeks, waited 15 days, and as soon as these pro-Russian protests began in Armenia, they gave them a պաս:

Georgia passes controversial ‘foreign agents’ bill despite widespread opposition

The law will require organizations receiving more than 20% of their funding from abroad to register as “agents of foreign influence” or face crippling fines.
The bill will be sent to the President who is expected to veto it, but her veto is expected to be overruled by the parliamentary majority later.
Georgian PM Kobakhidze had an "honest conversation" with U.S. deputy foreign minister James O'Brien, telling him that the Georgian government is interested in deepening the partnership with the U.S., "which requires mutual efforts and relations based on fairness."
James O'Brien demanded to speak with the manager - Bidza Ivanishvili. The latter refused to meet O'Brien, saying he won't hold any meetings under "blackmail".
The White House said the U.S. will review its relations with Georgia if the bill becomes law.

temperatures are rising rapidly in Armenia

REPORTER: The rainy May is not going to be enough to alleviate the negative consequences of the rapidly rising temperatures in Armenia. With a ~3 Celsius anomaly, Armenia had the second-highest increase in temperature over the last 6 months among a group of monitored countries.
WEATHER CENTER: High temperatures increase the evaporation of water and reduce the amount of snow in the winter. In December and January, we recorded rain instead of snow in certain mountainous regions, which is bad for water resources.
REPORTER: A conference was recently held in Yerevan within the framework of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification.
UN official: Around 40% of global soils are degraded. Millions of people will be forced to migrate from their communities by 2050 as a result of climate problems. Emergency action is needed to reduce the rate of rising temperatures. //
Armenia joined the Convention three decades ago and has assumed the responsibility to restore degraded soil by 2030. The government is promoting drip irrigation systems for farming and wants to plant more trees.

The first bridge began operating in 1996. It came to replace the floating bridges on the river.
Iran says the AM-IR traffic through the Meghri checkpoint significantly increased last year. Coupled with the fact that Armenia is building a modern North-South highway, they believe it's necessary to have a second AM-IR bridge to handle the rising traffic.

a new study on mice indicates that more exercise might be better than more sleep for clearing brain of toxins

They injected a dye into a brain and tracked the speed of its movement during sleep and exercise.
The findings show that the clearance of the dye was reduced by 30% in sleeping mice compared with mice that were kept awake. This has not been confirmed on humans yet.
Previous research has suggested that sleep is important for preventing dementia as it is during this time that toxic proteins are cleared from the brain.

This post will provide dialogues of NPCs who used sarcasm at least once.
"You head over to pay the barman a visit. Have a good drink and come back then. No use talking to you now - you look like a controller has rearranged your brain." - Lebedev (That dialogue, like few other dialogues can be unlocked if you won't complete "Talk to the barman" mission and will start talking to other NPCs before talking to Cold)
"Hello, O, Wonder of the Zone! I heard Lebedev wanted to get a piece of your invincible aura! Go see him." -Gray/Novikov (Can be unlocked if you'll start talking to Gray/Novikov before "Ask Lebedev about what happened" mission)
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/4v9wgN.jpg
"You look pretty good...for someone who survived the Emission anyhow. What you really want is to sit by the fireplace at Lebedev's..." - Suslov (Can be unlocked if you'll start talking to him before talking to Lebedev and completing "Talk to Lebedev" mission)
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/dqfXS6.jpg
"O welcome, guest from foreign lands! What come you with? A bursting purse or prized exotic wonders?" - Suslov

"We can do away with blindfolds this time. If you step into some quicksand, dying is ever so much more fun with your eyes open...I'm just kidding! Keep your eyes peeled and remember the way across the Swamps - next time you'll have to make it on your own." - Dialogue of Clear Sky Guide that can lead you to Cordon (Name of that guide is randomly generated)
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/TQ19dK.jpg
"What's it to you, huh? One look at you tells me you've got your own problems. Around these parts knowing too much can help you kick the bucket long before you're due. By the way, your bucket looks mighty nice - wanna trade before you walk upon an anomaly? Ah c'mon, get your panties out of the bunch - I'm just putting you on." - Dialogue of Random Bandit
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/zCQJZw.jpg
"What are you, some kind of journalist? Gonna write about me in tomorrow's newspaper? Ha-ha-ha! All right, listen here, boyo. We're the knights of the road and we rule the Garbage. You cut us some juice and we mind our own business. You don't pay up - you're in deep shit. This is a gold rush of sorts. That's 'cause these Soviet trinkets buried in this dump are now worth their weight in gold. So if you get into debt with us or try to be a hero, we'll send your ass straight to the camp. Working down there is about as much fun as mining uranium, what with all the anomalies and radiation. But hey, the good news is that at least your troubles would soon be over... along with your life." - Another Bandit dialogue

"Well, this here is the flea market, so I guess that makes us flea marketers. He-he, we're traders, buddy - we sell small stuff here and there...I'll be straight with you: our goods are crap, but hey, at least we're still in business, right? So, you come to trade or just to chat?" - Dialogue of Flea Market Trader

"Well, it's a difficult concept for you to grasp but...I live here! I also work here as a stalker. And we have a base here. Maybe you've heard of a clan called Freedom? Well, the Dark Valley is our territory. What do you think a Freedom member is doing on Freedom territory?" - Dialogue of Random Dark Valley Freedomer

"Well, I do my best work in the kitchen with a fork! Hah! Kidding, buddy. I'm a sniper expert. I can shoot pretty good myself and I help others too. I can work your assault rifle real nice - it'll fire like a Spetsnaz SVD when I'm finished with it. And if you get a real sniper rifle, oh baby - your enemies are gonna be taking real long detours to stay out of your way, that's a promise. I can also patch up your armor if need be." - Dialogue of Yar

"Trying to decide which beast to bring the Inquisitor. He runs a zoo at our base where he holds specimens of the local fauna. I'd love to stick a controller in there, but he'd probably make us all into zombies even if we could get our hands on one." - Dialogue of Random Agroprom Dutyer
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/aSg8jG.jpg
"Agroprom is a former research institute. Obviously, after the Zone appeared there ain't much research going on here no more. Ha-ha. Instead, we're using the building as our base to fight off the Zone's spawns. We're holding the line against the monsters that come out from underground. We fight to save the lives of other stalkers, sometimes at the cost of our own." - Another Dialogue of Random Duty NPC
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/ONEwh2.jpg
"Don't mind him, that's our local dumbass Mitay. As one professor would put it, he's "nothing but a vulgar swine!" No garden is without its weeds, and Mitay is the designated weed in ours. He'd be a perfect fit for the Inquisitor's zoo - would complete the collection as the top show freak. Sometimes I wish a pseudodog would adopt him... But really he's much better off as a trader. If he spent his days in the bar he'd spent more time getting his ass beat than actually drinking - or worse. Even considering that manhandling is a sure way to wind up in the cooler, that wouldn't stop most." - Dialogue of Major Zvyagintsev
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/RowziG.jpg
"I'm loving our scientists, man! They're funny guys, that's for damn sure! Usually they don't stick their nerdy little noses out of the bunker, but when they do, like the other day... all hell breaks loose! Troops everywhere, choppers, APCs! Next time, they might as well haul a battleship here, or at least an armored train..." - Dialogue of Random Yantar Stalker
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/51spyn.jpg
"We got a job for you. You see, we didn't exactly come to this forest to pick mushrooms. There's an anomalous zone nearby, with whole mountains of artifacts. I know how to get there, but the road goes through the forest - and you've heard all about the forest, I'm sure. It's a friggin' deathtrap. So, you escort us there, keep guard for a short while, and we'll reward you with a nice and juicy artifact for your troubles. Deal?" - Dialogue of Red Forest Stalker
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/haGgsJ.jpg
"We've arranged a little deal with the military. They take our bullets and we take their base. Sounds fair to me. Me and the boys are "negotiating" as best we can." - Dialogue of Army Warehouses Freedomers
Additional proof: https://snipboard.io/0PgNJU.jpg
Not really a dialogue, but nonetheless it also should be mentioned. Description of Eye artifact:
"This artifact, which resembles the human eye, considerably increases the body's metabolism, helping wounds heal quicker. Experienced stalkers say that the Eye also brings luck. Right or wrong, it sure brings in money. Emits radiation."

BWAKANANG SHET NA MALAGKET!!! BAKIT BA NAPAKAHIRAP MAGKA-ITEM SA DEPED!!!
To be honest, nawawalan na ako ng gana mag apply paulit ulit para sa lecheng item na yan. Ang sabi sa balita eh maraming teachers daw ang kailangan, pero kahit yearly ka mag apply, wala pa din bakante. So ano na?????
Dream career ko talaga ang teaching, kaso ngayon gustong gusto ko na sya isuko.
Kahit papaano competitive naman yung score ko every ranking kaso ewan ko, ang ilap talaga ng item para sa'kin. Oras na siguro para mag apply din sa ibang bansa...

Good afternoon po at sorry for the lack of a better title. Just want to inquire ano pwede gawin namin. Naaawa kasi ako sa sitwasyon ng pinsan ko, sobrang depressed na kasi di nya alam gagawin. Wala kasi syang alam sa batas at sa rights nya.

Cousin (Male, married, in his 40s, tricycle driver) Wife: walang work, with 2 kids from her 2 exes Kids ni cousin: A(m,10), B(f,8), C(m,3) Aunt ni Wife (P) Asawa ng aunt ni wife (Q) 

Hindi na nagkakasundo yung cousin ko at yung wife nya. May times na pinipisikal sya ng asawa nya pero di sya makalaban kasi takot sya ma-barangay at makulong. Ilang beses na rin sya pinapalayas ng asawa nya sa bahay nila kung saan siya ang nagbabayad.
Nakatira sila sa apartment na pagmamay-ari ng aunt ng wife nya(P). Two weeks ago after nila mag-away, pinalayas na si pinsan at dun sya tumira kasama sa mother niya. Dala nya sina kids A and B (gusto ng mga bata na sa kanya sumama, even yung isang stepdaughter gusto rin sana sumama kasi pabaya yung nanay at palaging nag-iinom).
Aware si pinsan na kailangan nya magsustento sa mga bata. Pero ngayon, nag-insist si wife nya, P, at Q na bayaran yung apartment kung saan nakatira si wife nya kasi daw pamilya pa rin. Sinabihan din sya nina P at Q na wala syang madadala sa mga anak nya kasi dapat daw sa nanay. Today, ipapa-barangay daw ang pinsan ko (wala pa kong balita if natuloy).
Additional info. Tricycle driver si pinsan at yung linya (ruta) ay owned by P and Q. Kinuha nila yun sa pinsan ko kaya hindi nakapag-biyahe and pinsan ko yesterday. In short, wala na syang trabaho.
Ito po questions ko.

1. May laban ba sya sa mga kids nya (A and B)?
   
2. Obligasyon ba nya bayaran ang rent sa apartment plus utilities na tinitirhan ng asawa nya (kasama ng asawa nya si kid C)?
   
3. Ano po ang minimum sa kelangan nyang ibigay para sa mga bata? (Percentage ng kita nya)
   

Hoping na may magbigay po ng guidance. Maraming salamat.

Naexperience nyo na ba yung nagbayad kayp ng past due balance nyo sa UB Quickloan pero hindi nabawas lahat ng amount na binayad nyo? Halimbawa, 10k binayad mo tapos 2500 lang nabawas sa online. Please enlighten me. Thank you.

Hello, kamusta kayong lahat? Medyo mahaba po itong ikukwento ko sainyo. Tungkol sa ex ko na 4 years kami (Tawagin nalang natin syang W). By the way, I am 24F and 25M naman sya. Nagkakilala kami nung college, same school magkaibang course nga lang. Nagmatch kami sa T 🔥- dating app kasi pinatry ako ng mga kaibigan ko eh ako uto-uto tapos di ko naman expected. Sa una syempre masaya kami. Hindi ako kagandahan pero sya chinito na maputi. Idk nga ano nagustuhan nya saakin eh.
During our 1st year na magbf/gf, okay naman sya. Siguro kasi 1st bf ko sya. Hindi pa ako marunong ng mga redflag redflag na yan noon kasi first time. Puro lang kasi ako crush crush nung college. In short bulag ang ate mo kasi inlove. Unang napapansin ko sakanya na akala ko normal, nahihiya sya na makita ng mga blockmates nya na kasama ako. Hindi naman ako ganun kapangit. Tapos naman napansin ko pag nasa mall kami napapalingon sya sa girls yun talaga nagalit ako sabi ko nakaka-bastos sa part ko eh ako marupok pinatawad.
Nung nagpandemic na, nagstart na sya mag-iba ng ugali. Meron pa akong nadiscover meron syang addiction sa p()rn. Yung 365 days nakailang ulit sya kasi nakita ko sa history ng account nya. Nadismaya ako kasi hindi ko alam na meron syang ganun side kasi nung mga previous years okay naman sya or baka bihira kami magkita kasi busy sa schoolworks? Nangungulit din sya magpasend ng video ko or pictures na nud3s pero ayoko talaga nagagalit sya bina block nya ako. Akala ko normal na tampuhan yun redflag na pala. Naalala ko pa nanunuod kami TV lumabas si Ms. Catriona Gray sa isang show sabi nya saakin "Kung ganyan kaganda GF ko buntis agad yan sakin ihi lang pahinga. Joke lang" nagtaasan balahibo ko sa sinabi nya sabi ko "G@go? Ano ba sinasabi mo? Saka sa itsura mong yan papatulan ka nyan?" sobrang inis ko kasi sakanya kaya ganun sinabi ko.
2021, una akong nagka-work saamin. Actually for experience lang kaya ako nag apply bilang JO kahit 6k sahod sabi ko okay lang wala pa naman ako ginagastusan. Kaya simula nung nagwork ako spoiled sya sakin, food, damit, or anything na request nya na afford ko binibili ko kasi mahal ko at tanga ako eh. Dumating sa time na nakaipon sya ng marami kasi binibigyan ko sya 500 or 1k depende sa budget ko monthly yan. Kada lumalabas kami sabi nya wala sya pera edi ako na naman taya pero marami sya ipon ayaw lang gumastos naintindihan ko ulit yun kasi alam ko wala sya work and nagrereview for board exam. Hanggang sa napapansin ko lumalala ang mga luho na umabot sa point nagka-utang utang ako mabili lang gusto nya at takot ako maiwan diba ako si tanga?
2022, dito na gumuho mundo ko. Mid-July right after my birthday I noticed na merong active reactor sa posts nya sa FB. I stalked the girl, hubadera and single mom. Nagduda ako and kinausap sya. Sabi ko "Hi kilala mo si W****?" Grabe kabog dibdib ko kasi alam ko something is wrong I can feel it. Sabi nya yes we're fubu. Grabe as in grabe gulantang ko nanlamig talaga ako di ako makapagsalita nakaramdam ako ng pagkahilo. Sunod sunod na iyak ko. Hindi ako nagkamali sa pagdududa ko. Sabi ko "I see kelan pa?" sinabi nya date and yun yung time na panay hingi sya sakin ng pera it turns out pang check in nila ni single mom and sabi ko "GF nya ko 4 years na kami" di nya raw alam na may GF ang sabi raw kasi "single na 2years ago".
Kinalma ko sarili and nagpasalamat pa sa honesty ni single mom. Chinat ko bf ko and sinabi ko lahat sakanya and ginaslight pako at nagalit na walang katotohanan lahat na sinabi ni single mom. Tinanong ko sya "bakit mo nagawa yun?" sagot nya sakin "Eh kasi nagsasawa na ko sayo." I'm so confused and lost di ko na alam. Durog na durog ako, I mean lahat ng kabaitan, pagmamahal binigay ko, suporta lahat and eto lang ipapalit saakin?
I ghosted him pagod na ko ayoko na. Blocked sa lahat ng soc med, deleted his number and started to move on sabi ko sa sarili ko tama na. After a month, narealize ko isang araw lang pala ako umiyak na malala, kasi kami palang nagmomove-on na ako. Hindi ako natrato ng tama, puro pala ako beg ni isang regalo wala ako natanggap sakanya. Gabi-gabi ko sya iniiyakan nung college bukod sa acads. Puro trauma dinulot nya saakin at problema and hindi ko narealize kasi mahal na mahal ko sya. Nung nakawala ako sakanya parang nawalan ako tinik sa dibdib naging peaceful tulog ko. Mr. Mechanical Engineer napatawad na kita, I'll take it as a blessing hindi ako marunong magtanim ng sama ng loob. Niligtas ako ni Lord sa kagaya mo. And ngayon, I'm so contented na sa buhay ko masaya na ako. Nagagawa ko na mga gusto ko. And si single mom? Last na balita ko sakanya ka-date nya yung classmate mismo ni Ex ko.
