I had a chance to declutter Deye’s school cabinet last Sunday and thinking to sell used text books she had in the past two years. If only we are close to Manila, I would have sold these books in Recto right away.
Back in college, I don’t normally buy my books from the University I went to. I would take time and effort going to the crowded place called Recto, check all the stalls and buy used college textbooks. I remember buying one for only Php80.00 where if you get it from the bookstore, it would cost you Php550.00. That time my mom gave me an exact amount of Php550.00 but since I got the book for only Php80.00, it saved me a lot and used the money for something else.
I wish there’s Recto or the like here in my place where we could get cheaper and used books or trade old text books to something we could make use of.

Hi, Mitch here, a full-time home-based Marketing Manager by day, 24/7 Mom, and a Blogger/Content Creator in my spare time. Proud mom to 2 girls and 1 boy, Derelle, Erchelle, and Elric.
I am happy to share my adventures as I walk through motherhood and having to do most things on my own while my husband works miles away from us. Turning my passion into a profitable venture is another thing.
I also author and manage my 15-year-old blog, which developed my social media awareness over the years.
From being an ex-OFW to doing what I am good at in the comfort of my own home – while taking good care of my 3 wonderful kids, I hope that people see me as a great inspiration when it comes to pursuing my passion and turning it into a profitable venture. A giant leap like this is such a challenging journey but indeed is rewarding. A few bumps along this whole journey did not stop me from being the best version of myself.
