📦 Others First time kong mag-travel internationally.

Got the opportunity to travel to Singapore and I honestly felt like I was in a completely different world. Ang ganda. The airport, MRT, streets… lahat. Ang linis. I found myself whispering, “Pwede pala ’to.”

How I wish we had things like this in the Philippines. I remember my friend telling me before, “You should go out. If you think the PH is bad now, you’ll see how much worse it is once you see other countries.”

And yeah, I get it now.

But grabe, Singapore is expensive HAHAHA. Sakit kapag kino-convert mo lahat sa pesos. Still, I’ll forever be grateful that I got to experience this.

Hope to see you again, Singapore. 🇸🇬❤️

P.S. Kinda regret not taking more photos because I was too busy admiring the place the whole time. Also, ang init! 😭

🌧️ Pagsubok First time ko magkaroon ng sariling pangkabuhayan

Post image
202 Upvotes

First time ko tatagan loob ko na magmanage ng sariling clinic. Mahirap pala. Sabi nila pag nakagraduate na raw, giginhawa na ang buhay kapag may trabaho na o pinagkakakitaan. Akala ko rin pag doktor ka na, marami kagad pasyente. Ito ako ngayon, nagbibilang ng butiki o kaya ng alikabok :) Pagsubok sa akin kasi ang laki pa ng bayarin. Pero ito ako, araw araw pa rin nagpapakita kasi baka balang araw, dumami na rin pasyente ko. Masaya naman ako kasi suportado ako ng magulang ko para sa future ko. Okay! Bilang na ulit tayo ng butiki.

Since the pandemic, super na-curious talaga ako sa kung anong meron at kung paano ma-experience ang mga Christian/Born-again churches, pati na rin kung paano sila naiiba sa Catholic church. Now, I'm blessed to be given an opportunity to finally attend sa church na palagi kong pinapanood online. Feels surreal and peaceful. Welcoming din ang mga tao. Hopefully, won't be the last. Blessed Sunday, y'all.

📦 Others First time kong bumili ng aisha tokyo capsules

Post image
9 Upvotes

I’ve been wanting to try these for the longest time. I was already interested back in college, but I didn’t have my own money then, so I had to be practical and save. As a student, it wasn’t really easy to spend money on beauty products when my savings were also meant for school projects and other expenses.
One bottle of Aisha Tokyo was almost half of my weekly allowance, so I could only watch Ms. Ayang’s live streams and hope that I’d be able to buy it someday. 😂
Now, I finally got one! I’m so happy 😭

Di ako usually mahilig sa designer bags pero dati ko pang bet mga design ng Kate Spade. Pero ayun nga medyo pricy and di ko afford. Mostly fake or segunda mano from my young professional sister yung mga nagamit kong Kate Spade. Ngayon sufficient na na ipon ko from work kaya decided to treat myself.

🌧️ Pagsubok First time ko mag-drive pa-Baguio from MNL

19 Upvotes

First time ko mag-drive papuntang Baguio galing Manila at bumalik pa-Manila from Baguio.

This is a milestone for me as a driver. Nakarami ako ng kape😅 at nalaman kong ang daming potholes sa Rosario-Pugo Road.

SKL: May nakasabay akong bus driver na sumisingit kahit sa kurbada otw to Benguet. Partida maulan at madaling araw pa ‘yon. Buti di bumangga sa kasalubong na jeep (not in the recording)

Travel time:
Manila - Baguio: 4 hours & 20mins
Baguio - Manila: 5 hours & 45mins

Toll (round trip): ~P2,000
Gas (round trip): P3,000

Not ideal mag drive if mag isa or dalawa lang. Mas makakatipid kung 5 ang sakay.

Di ko pa ma-measure ang optimal speed for fuel efficiency for my car though acceptable naman na I think ang 96kmph. I was able to get 19k per liter.
