An Open Letter On nCoV

I’m finally out but not permitted to go to places with lots of people. My doctor specifically told my mother not to let me go out the mall. Lols

Kahit wala pa ang nCoV I would wear masks because having a history of asthma means you’re the best candidate for respiratory illness. Shoutout po sa mga mahilig umubo, nCoV or not magtakip naman kayo.

TBH kakalabas ko lang ng hospital because I nearly caught pneumonia. This is how much it’s worth to be confined for lung problems mainly asthma, bronchitis and rhinitis. Beforebeung admitted I visited the doctor 2x and was on antibiotics. Ngayon I have 5different medicine + Nebules. All in all the money I spent for consultation and meds is around 5k. I’ve also heard about how the sick would sometimes die sa hospital kasi walang card/pang downpayment. Which is really sad. So di ko din masisisi why a lot of people are very afraid.

Please don’t assume that I would encourage racist rants. I’m not condoning xenophobia. We all are in this together no matter what race, lahat tayo takot. We all have families and loved ones we want to get home to. If it started here in the Philippines we will also be on their shoes.

If you’re not afraid of getting sick because you’re very healthy then from the bottom of my heart, good for you! Pero if you’ll be making fun of people because they’re afraid to get sick, then please think about this first. Not everyone is fortunate enough to afford medical assistance and if ever they get checked ups for free, do you think they can pay for meds?

Always remember: Only one way of using a surgical mask, colored side out! Don’t touch your face and wash your hands!!Take care everyone!

Oh My Brows!!!

Disclaimer: Please know that this is not a paid post, I paid for the services and it was worth every penny!

So I had gone and tried the permanent make-up trend! Honestly it was quite difficult choosing a therapist. The best ones are often waaaay out of my budget. And I also don’t want to be too cheap and end up with years of regret. Thankfully one of my friends recommended this extremely talented lady named Aby of Mannequin’s Lair.

Look at my picture only a week after the procedure. No makeup, no edits. It cuts at least ten minutes from my daily routine!!! I’m just so thankful.

I’ll be updating you more as I go into my journey. Till then!

Owning a Hoverboard: Safety Measures To Remember

With great power comes with great responsibility – Ben Parker

CD-R King Your one stop shop gives you an insightful Hoverboard/iRover safety usage.

The stylish and frolicsome appeal of iRover maybe mistaken as a toy. It is apparent to many that your futuristic iRover/hoverboard is fun to play with, but it is far from being a toy.

 

iRover indoor

As per DTI’s consumer’s safety requirement, it should be clear to hoverboard enthusiasts that the gadget is intended for age 14 and above. We need to realize that we should exercise proper care when using anything that has 2-wheels. Protective gear such as helmet and wrist guards, elbow and knee pads should be worn whenever onboard a hoverboard.

Safety precaution for first-time users includes that the user should be in front of a sturdy handle to achieve balance in riding the iRover. Test your balance by slowly leaning back to move backwards. Gently lean forward to thrust in a slow mode forward. For novice users, always start working on a slow and steady pace until conquering the iRover.

In maneuvering towards left, slightly put weight on the right portion of iRover, while in turning right the left portion should bear more weight.

Battery Recharging is 6 hours and should be done with extreme caution. Presence of an adult should be sternly considered while youthful exuberance are being displayed by the youngsters. It is also advisable that iRover should ideally be for indoor use only.

Your one-stop media provider secure its consumers the necessities in owning an iRover like the do’s and don’ts, offshore manufacturer and store. Thus, should be clearly seen and stipulated on the box.

Pinakbet One of My Favorite Filipino Dishes

I’m so proud to show you what my mom cooked for me today. It is one of the best Filipino Veggie Dishes which is called Pinakbet.

2016-02-11 08.50.09

This is a viand made from sautéed squash, eggplant, string beans and okra. Shrimp paste, fish sauce or salt then pepper is then added for flavor.

Here’s a simple recipe:
1/4 kilo of lean pork cut into small bits.
1 eggplant or 4 small ones, sliced
1/4 kilo squash, chopped into bite sized cubes
3 pieces tomatoes (the more ripe the better)
1 red onion, chopped
5 cloves garlic, crushed
6 to 8 pieces okra
1 bunch string beans, cut into bite sized pieces
3 tbsp shrimp paste
1 cup water
3 tbsp cooking oil (we use canola it’s good for you)
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
Heat the pan and spread the cooking oil.
When oil is hot enough, sauté the garlic, onion, and tomato.
Lower the temperature then cover the pan for about a minute. This should soften the ripe tomatoes.
Crush the tomatoes with a fork to bring out their natural flavor.
Add the pork and cook until color turns light brown.
Put-in the shrimp paste and cook for 2 minutes.
Add water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes or until pork is tender.
Put-in the squash and cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until it becomes soft.
Add the remaining vegetables and mix with the other ingredients.Simmer for 5 minutes or until all the vegetables are cooked. (Do not overcook the vegetables)
Serve hot with rice. Share!!!

If you wouldn’t want to add pork it’s okay. This saves about 30 minutes of preparation time. This is also best eaten with fried fish. Today I enjoyed it with a small bowl of Dulong which is a kind of small fish. Sometimes I see these with Nasi Lemak.

1+1

Guess who got her Althea Beauty Box?!

Last Friday, I was busily tinkering around the Althea PH Website. I found shopping for Korean beauty products really easy because I can easily navigate or just search for the beauty products I want.

Now I won’t act like an expert in Korean Beauty products because I am not. I just am a fan for some of their products and I know that they are really big nowadays in the beauty/cosmetics industry. So when I saw the wide array of products I was like “Whoa what does this do?!” I felt like a little girl in the candy store. I just didn’t know which to check!

The beauty of their site is that the products were grouped according to use, like SKINCARE, MAKEUP, CLEANSER(I think cleansers are a big thing there that it has it’s own tab), PACK & MASK(Koreans love their Facemasks), NEW ARRIVALS and TRENDY ITEMS(Best Sellers). You can also sort their products according to relevance, price or manufacturer. I honestly sorted mine by price because I am running on a budget. Hihihihi

DSC08681DSC08684DSC08685

If you’re asking me about the great things about Althea they would be:

  • The prices are really affordable. – I checked some deal sites and some other online stores and they have the best price!
  • They offer free shipping DIRECTLY TO YOUR DOORSTEP for orders Php1500.00 and above – You don’t have to worry about going to the post office and being charged. And as a Filipino I found this very relieving. That’s actually my main concern when it comes to online shopping.
  • If you were able to get a fake product form Althea, they’ll refund 200% of that item’s purchase value. – Yes, they are confident about the legitimacy of their products!
  • They have an Unconditional Refund Policy – They will refund the product you bought within 30 days. if you’re not satisfied. No questions asked!
