A reaction/rant to a negative review I read about Emily Henry’s book, Happy Place:

Kausap ko last week si *secret* na super naging close ko na, at na-trigger talaga ko dun sa advice na binigay ng ninang nila sa kasal. Ughhh nakakainis talaga. Bakit ganun ang tinuturo nila sa mga babaeng bagong kasal?? Parang ganito yung advice:
I-make sure na presentable ang mga asawa natin kasi pag hindi sila presentable tingnan, nagre-reflect yun ng masama sa babae, na parang hindi natin sila inaasikaso at inaalagaan.
I am so tired of people looking down on designers or illustrators (people in the creative field in general). I don’t do what I do as a hobby (anymore). If you’re neither a close relative nor one of my closest friends, I am done with favors or discounts. It’s either I do it for free (for the people previously mentioned given I have the time—but if you want to pay me I won’t stop you either 😂) or full price (everyone else).
