It is everywhere. Videos of people protesting about wearing masks. Grown adults throwing childlike tantrums for being asked to wear a mask in public during this pandemic. People complaining that their rights are being trampled on just because they are being asked to put on a piece of cloth over their nose and mouth to […]
A couple of years back, I bought a fitness watch from Lazada. It cost less than a thousand pesos and it measured my steps, calories burned, heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels. While my main purpose for it was to count my steps, I found myself wanting more from it and its partner app. […]
So much of this pandemic has me feeling uncertain about the future. I feel like we do not know what tomorrow might bring. I often say that I try to live my life the best I can because tomorrow is never promised, but I think that this is something that has never been more real […]
How has living in this pandemic been for you so far? On my end, it has been OK. A bit challenging, a bit scary, but if I take a step back and look at what I have instead of what I do not, I will say that I am doing better than most. Life is […]
Churros seem to have become a popular snack these days. Shops that offer churros as a specialty have been popping up everywhere. It would be a safe bet to say that there would be a churros place near me in every area I go to. Instead of trying these places out, I decided to go […]
If there is one thing that Jennifer Lawrence and I have in common, it’s our guilty pleasure: I love Keeping Up with the Kardashians! Photo Credit: Pixabay My sisters and I have been following the reality show since its early days. I used to watch Paris Hilton’s reality shows so I was already familiar with […]
In a recent post, I talked about my experience watching the Manila leg of the Boyzone Thank You and Goodnight farewell show. Their last two Manila shows were probably the first concerts from foreign musicians that I’ve seen in a long time, with the most recent before that being a toss-up between Alicia Keys and […]
Back in the 80s when I was a little girl I was a big Sharon Cuneta fan. I loved her movies and the theme songs that came along with them. One of those movies was Bituing Walang Ningning, which was recently aired on PBO. Bituing Walang Ningning is a movie about Dorina, a poor girl […]
I have been going through some of the Korean TV series available via streaming as per my cousin’s recommendations. With her prodding and because I had finished and enjoyed another one of the other shows of the female lead, I decided to hunker down and watch the show What’s Wrong with Secretary Kim on Viu. […]
How has everyone been doing? How was your week? We are nearing the end of a long weekend here in the Philippines, I hope everyone is taking the time to relax and enjoy the time with loved ones. As for me, I have been staying home, as usual. My sister and I were talking about […]
One of the shows that I have been watching on the Fox TV app is the medical drama New Amsterdam, starring former 90210 and Blacklist actor Ryan Eggold. It is based on a book called Twelve Patients: Life and Death at Bellevue Hospital. It is about a young medical director named Max who is trying […]
(A post from a year ago, reposting for the benefit of those looking for this entry!) Growing up, my parents made sure that members of their respective families were always welcome at our house. They would stay for vacations during the summer or even live with us while they were in the process of moving […]
A little trivia about me: I hate shopping. I know, that’s not a very girly thing to say but I just hate it. I’m the type of girl who will only go to the mall if I need to meet someone or if there is anything specific that I need to buy. I usually shop […]
The word reputation is defined as the “belief or opinions that are generally held about someone or something.” To put it simply, it is about what other people think of a person, thing, place, group, or business. In these times where most (if not all) of us make use of social media, we all have, […]
