LPT: Use the chrch for meals and mental health breaks.
Lately, I’ve found a lot of comfort in going to them. I’m not a believer. I don’t care about the sermons, and I’m not there to prayy. I go because it’s the only place I can get a decent meal for free.
Im a 19F economics student who lives in a dorm that doesn't allow any cooking (not even rice cooker), so we have to buy from the karinderyas/ eateries nearby. But even food there is a bit of a stretch for my budget (especially with the price hike recently) since I’m relying on a scholarship and a part-time job. Most nights, I’m just in my room eating plain rice with soy sauce.
I feel a bit guilty about it sometimes, but I’ve started timing my visits to whenever there’s a community gathering or a service where I know they’ll be serving food. It’s the only time I actually get to eat something with real protein.
Besides, it’s also the only place where I feel at peace. My life is just a stressful loop of working, studying, and counting every single peso. There, it is quiet and cool, and for that one hour, I don't have to think about my situation. The stillness just helps me clear my head.
