My Paranormal Experiences - Part 2



This is a continuation of my story telling about my paranormal experiences; Although, last time I wrote about stories that happened at my old house so I am now gonna tell you guys about the things I experienced at random places.


Too early for school.

It was during the 5th grade so I was about 11-ish years old. I had a school service back then and I had this friend and classmate that rode with me, let us call her Isla. So Isla and I were always the ones who are very early to arrive in school and the classroom that we had back then was only 1 for the whole day. So me and Isla climbed up to our room and the door was locked which was unusual since it was rarely locked except when somebody else arrived before us (which sometimes does happen) and decided to prank everybody. Me and Isla were knocking at the door for a minute or two and the doors of our school that time had really tiny windows so me and Isla peeked on the window and we saw a girl about maybe our age jump to look at us and crouch back down behind the door that we were peeking in. We didn't see the face, only the eyes and the hair because it happened really fast. She was almost naked from what I saw or maybe wearing something that I couldn't see. Isla looked at me and asked if I saw that and I said yes and I asked her who was it, she says she thinks it was one of our classmates because of the haircut. So we just kept knocking until all of our suspects that we thought were inside and who we saw arrived. We kept telling them what happened and some even thought we were just scaring everybody. We kept an eye on the door incase it does open and somebody was really inside but classes were about to start and our adviser unlocked the door. Me and Isla rushed inside to tell everybody where we saw the girl but really, nobody was there. Totally creeped me out for the rest of the day.

House.

This was at another one of our old houses, not the same as the past one that I've told you guys about. I was either 8-9 years old at that time (we moved out for abit at our old home due to renovation) and everybody, my mom, my brother and my aunt were already at the main room getting ready for bed. I was at the living room watching a favorite show of mine. There was a window behind the TV (We haven't rearranged much of the furniture yet because we just moved there at that time) and I saw someone, no idea if it was a girl or a boy wearing a white shirt and he or she put his hand on the window really slow and left. I ran to the main room and told my mom what happened. She checked the window and she saw that there were finger prints. I honestly don't know if it was a ghost or a real person which brings me to this, at that same house, few nights after, I saw a lady wearing white pass by the window and I yelled "woah" which startled my mom. She asked me what did I see and I said I saw a lady pass by. She stared at me like I gone mad which I didn't know why back then, now I do realize why since that window is in the back part of the house and not much people could really fit there since the windows are too close to the walls. She never really told me anything about it until we thought somebody got inside the house. There were banging noises everywhere that my mother got outside the room with her bat or something to hit someone with and gone to check. She didn't see anything but she did say that the noise just kept transferring from room to room. It was a really crazy house.

Stairs.

We moved houses alot so this one is another house that we just moved in. That night me and my yaya (a Filipino term to use to call our maid) were sleeping in my room. the doors were open and my mom and my brother were sleeping in the main room. Althorughout the night, me and yaya just kept looking at each other because we keep hearing someone coming up and down the stairs. It only stopped when my mom would come out of the room to check up on me which was only 2x after that, it just kept happening again and since we just moved, there wasn't electricity yet in that house and we'd have to wait for I think 3 days for there to be power. After that night, me and yaya had our own pair of earphones and played music to sleep.

Throwing Objects.

Another house that we moved to again. This was a few years ago and nobody else was home but me and my boyfriend at that time. I was peeing but I had a bad feeling or was scared at the moment for whatever reason, so I pee-d while the door was open. All of a sudden something or someone threw a colgate cap at me and I know that it wasn't my boyfriend because he was busy playing HON. I'm sure it wasn't paused because I could hear Nymphora's dialog and I could hear it from the bathroom. Trust me, he loved his HON back then. All I could think about at that moment was, well the worst has happened and ran outside where my boyfriend was playing and ended up trying to learn how to play HON.

Manananggal
From Wikipedia description:
The Manananggal (sometimes confused with the Wak Wak) is a vampire-like mythical creature of the Philippines, a malevolent,man-eating and blood-sucking monster or witch.
More about that HERE

I'm sure this is probably my craziest story but I am somehow happy that I wasn't alone when I experienced this because I wouldn't know how to handle it and explaining to everybody what I saw at that time. This happened years ago and I was with my friends and boyfriend at that time at one of our friend's house's terrace. We were just telling stories, laughing, just really having a chill time until 12-ish a.m. until my boyfriend pointed at something and asked me "what's that?" and not waiting for my response he yelled again, "what is that?". I looked at it and swore and hid my face on my boyfriend's back. Our friends probably saw my reaction because when they looked at what we were talking about, they too swore and screamed and ducked because it flew just right above us, even taking a moment to land on the roof and fly off again. I couldn't really get a good look at it other than it is half a body, huge wings and long black hair. I didn't see the face or the bottom part of the upper body that clearly because of her huge wings, all I could remember is she was scary but not disgusting.  I thought she might have been glowing at some point but that's just maybe my tears from being to scared. I think what scared us the most is how powerful and loud and big her wings are because you could just hear it even when she was still far away. When she was gone we couldn't move from where we were, some of us were even in denial of what we saw. To be honest a few months ago I was looking outside my window when I saw a shadow figure moving around, it was huge and I'm sure there weren't any birds, there weren't any dogs or cats around so I don't know what I saw but what I do know is I did see a manananggal and I do not wanna see it again.

Other People's Experiences with my Doppelganger.
I just wanted to add this part eventhough I wasn't there to witness it. It was just pretty creepy that I knew I had to add it in. This one is from my yaya at that time, when we were living at the house where the colgate cap was thrown at me (story above), I wasn't always home during those years since I was always out with my friends and went home really late. Our house that time had a gate and a stone pathway that if you walked on it, it would make some small noises. My yaya said she was watching T.V. at that time when she heard me calling her from the front door. The voice was coming outside and my yaya said that my voice asked her to open the door and to hurry up and the "person" outside wasn't even knocking. Yaya felt a bit weary at this point because when she looked at the window, she saw that the gate was still locked and she didn't hear anyone coming towards the front door so, she didn't answer. After awhile the voice was gone and when I actually got home, I opened the gate and knocked on the front door because I only had the key for the gate at that time. My yaya won't open it for me at first and kept asking me all these questions and I was there just answering them. When I got in, she asked me if I went home earlier that time, I said "no, I just got here" and she told me what happened.

Fred visited us at that same house a few months after. He is usually a morning person so he got up really early and was talking to yaya at the dining room. The dining room at that time was infront of my bedroom door (it was a small house) and Fred and yaya saw "me" coming out of my bedroom. They saw me stretch and walk towards the back door. Fred said he tried asking me what I wanted to bring for lunch, he said that I just peeked at him and went out. Then after a few minutes, they saw me coming out from my brother's room. They looked at me like I was a damn ghost and I asked what's the matter? They told me what happened and I actually didn't go to school that day because I was just too scared to even go to the bathroom.

Those are the stories for my paranormal experiences and if you didn't check or read about the first one that I made then click HERE.
Do comment or link down below your paranormal experiences because what more way to scare yourself even more right? Anyway, Happy Halloween everybody!

Back To School: Beauty Essentials!


Good Day Everybody! I know I'm pretty late with the back to school post (classes in the Philippines started last June 1st) but I think this will still be helpful if you wanted to grab some stuff that you now know that you need or if you're classes haven't started yet, then you'll need these beauty products for sure. So let's get started!


So, when I was in high school, I experimented with lots of makeup but due to the school policy, I had to keep it to a minimum. Although, that didn't really stop me to look pretty and still express myself yet still looking natural.

1. Concealer for me back then is my best friend. With this product, I could hide some unwanted blemishes or spots that my adolescent days were giving me. I didn't really like having them and it irritates me that my classmates tend to notice it whenever they talk to me. So this is a life saver. (Fake Up Concealer by: Benefit. I got it on a travel size from the flawless four package that included other products for about P1,300.)

2. A little blush goes a long way. Ever had one of those days where you look like you just wanna go home, you feel that your face is so flushed that it makes you look like you aren't a morning person? Well, try and invest on some light blush on. Besides looking cute, having some color in your face makes you look like you did some effort putting yourself together since it makes your cheeks pop but not clashing with your school uniform. Finding the right light blush color for your skin tone would really look natural and doesn't restrict you from experimenting with makeup while at school. (Nichido Cheek Mousse from Watsons. I remember getting this for about P164 before.)

3. Hair tie. Okay, seriously though, how many hair ties do you lose in a week? Uhuh, yea me too. I lose quite a lot because when your at school, you tend to want to tie your hair in the middle of the day and sometimes other girls would borrow from you too. Taking it off at the end of the day and finding it the next day is always a struggle if you aren't a super neat kid (Yea, I'm not organized with my hair ties at all). So, do try and buy those little hair ties that are way too many for you to even lose and put it in your makeup bag. That way, you won't have to waste time struggling to find where you last placed your hair tie and actually do some work with that time. (Hair ties from Forever 21. P89)

4. Lip Balm. Yes you do need this since when you are in school, the weather seems to be on it's best with confusing how you should feel. (Especially now in the Philippines it's either raining or sunny.) I don't know why but my lips are the best to react to weather changes so this is a necessity for me or if you just have really dry lips and don't feel like packing on some vaseline on it then this is the best way to go. This is also a replacement if you wanted some color on your lips but don't want to go to heavy on lip sticks, just buy the tinted ones that you know won't break the school policy. (Cherry Chapstick from Watsons. I forgot the price but below P100)

5. Hair Removal Cream. Okay, so I had this issue before that when I shave or pluck, my arm pits just gets irritated by it and makes me self conscious whenever there's an event at school that I must wear some things that are sleeveless. So if you are having the same problem, you could try using the hair removal cream. Just make sure you do a patch test first before you actually use it to make sure you aren't allergic to the product and make sure you follow the instructions. (Veet Hair Removal Cream from Watsons. More or less P116)

6. Powder. I think that if you don't like having a full on coverage but have super oily skin, then do invest on some good powder. It makes you look a bit more flawless and controls the oils on your skin. There are just those times where you'll have to reapply but not really that bothersome. (Hello Flawless Powder by: Benefit. I got it on a travel size from the flawless four package that included other products for about P1,300.)

Alright, so I guess that are some of the beauty necessities that got me through my high school days. It isn't a lot yes, but it did make a difference. So hopefully you guys found this helpful and +1 or comment down below your suggestions or what are your beauty essentials for school.

Thanks for reading guys, until the next blog!
