Personal musings: Coloring outside the lines
I remember it clearly when I was 4, my teacher told my mom that I need to stay longer at school, because I drew random things, and colored outside the lines. I also used the color blue instead of purple in grapes She told me to make sure I keep the color inside the lines, and use the “correct colors” Today I realized, how ironic it is, to teach Art, only to subject your class to rules, and restrict creativity. Sure, you can say “Hey you can try using purple for grapes” or “You can draw your squiggly lines in another sheet” But no. Dont do this. Dont do that.…

This Retinol Alternative is Making Waves in Age-defying favorites
Anyone whoโs looking on how to reverse the signs of aging has come across the buzzword retinol, a classic skincare ingredient that is a derivative of Vitamin A that when used consistently, helps increase cell turnover, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles.

REVIEW: Loop Quiet – noise reducing earplugs (finally, sleep!)
Hello everyone! Today, I would like to share with you one of my best Lazada purchases this year: the LOOP Quiet Earplugs. Thanks to these earbuds, I can finally sleep well, as I don’t hear the chickens crowing every morning anymore (in addition to the bipolar medications prescribed by my doctor). These earbuds are perfect if you have noisy neighbours, dogs, or someone who likes to sing karaoke next door, if your apartment is near a noisy road, etc. The Loop Quiet Earplugs cost 1,095 pesos (buy Loop Earplugs here), which is a bit pricey, but I have tried cheaper earbuds before, and they were just a waste of money.…

Our Disney on Ice Manila Experience (2023)
It’s been 30+ years since I’ve experienced Disney on Ice. I can perfectly remember the moment; I was five years old, seated way way up the General Patronage seats, but still in awe and wonder of what I was able to see below. My favorite Disney characters prancing on ice. It made me want to take up ice skating lessons too! There were also snack vendors, from popcorn, hotdogs, cotton candy, and yes, the snow cone with a lightup musical mug. I wasn’t able to buy the snow cone mug, because we couldn’t afford it at that time. But I’ve always been grateful for the experience. Thirty years later, like…
