It has been more than a decade since we’ve seen Wildlife (short for Ninoy Aquino Parks And Wildlife) in Quezon City. I’ve had good memories of this place when I was in highschool where my classmates and I frequent the place for our school projects. We would meet there on weekends to practice for school plays or stage presentations. We actually went there more often than QC Memorial Circle since there were more trees in Widlife to shield us from the sun till the afternoon. Wildlife was also my husband and I’s favorite...
Whenever the Christmas season arrives, I can’t help but think of Dapitan. It’s a street full of affordable decorations for Christmas. But aside from that, they also have other stuff for home decor, antiques, and gift items. It’s like a mini-Divisoria filled with all sorts of home accessories. Just this week, my husband agreed to give the place a visit. After all, it’s early for Christmas and the place must still be not that full of visitors. And we were correct. Although the place may not that be full of items yet,...
How much do you know about head lice or kuto? Test yourself by reading this list below of some facts about head lice which you may not be aware of. Head lice infestation or pediculosis is most common for girls 4-12 years old. Boys can have lice too. Head lice can live or thrive even on clean hair and scalp. Children who have short hair can still have lice if not treated. That is because lice live and feed on scalp. However, having long hair means having more space for head lice to lay their eggs. Head louse (single kuto is louse, more...
A new S&R branch had opened in Novaliches and I was curious of what we can see and shop in there. The 2 supermarket/department store giants were already our neighbors but I’ve been hearing people talk about S&R often so when we had an available time last week, we finally decided to drop by. After parking (free parking for shoppers), we headed straight to the entrance where you’ll immediately see the Membership area. S&R is a membership shop which means you or any of your companion needs to be a member before you...
I only know a little about asthma though I’ve lived with family members who have asthma when I was younger. The only son of one of my aunts has an asthma and I saw how challenging it was for them back then. I remember how strict my aunt was when it comes to nebulizer time and my cousin’s activities (di pwede laging mapagod or mapawisan). I also have a stepbrother who is asthmatic and my father often complains about the medicines they need to buy whenever my brother has an asthma attack. My kids do not have asthma nor my husband...
Until now, I still find it fun to buy and bring home a Happy Meal to my kids. That feeling that you are carrying something special, the red color of the box, the McDonald’s meal inside it, and of course, the Happy Meal toys, I love everything about it. When I was still employed, I was always excited on paydays when I get to bring my babies a Happy Meal box. My daughters and I love their Hello Kitty toys and girls’ accessories so I always look out for their new releases monthly. Now, McDonald’s made Happy Meal not only...
Almost half a decade from now, my kids will be young adults. And that will mean I’ll be in the mid-life adult stage (no, not the senior stage ha). And yes, time flies by so swiftly and 24 hours is just like a fleeting second. And though there are more imminent bills to pay (utilities, school fees etcetera), this is the perfect time to think of the future, in the longer term. Thinking about other kinds of savings aside from the usual bank and checking account I know was just a bit too tedious for me. I know gasgas na gasgas sa akin...
Feeling anxious, envious, sad and lonely are all routinary and part of my daily life. Don’t think that it’s only you. Everyone of us, even the happiest and most successful woman in the world experience this. Don’t think that it’s sour graping at the same time. Nobody has a perfect life. Even that sexiest mom I’ve just seen in Facebook, who had just been in a cruise with her rich husband, and very pretty children, must have felt empty in some days. We all struggle and we all feel that somehow, we lack here...
