Protect yourself and your loved ones - get vaccinated!

Carmina went to do her two weeks grocery on March 25, 2025, at Landers Balintawak branch. Upon entering the store near the pharmacy there was a sign posted saying to register for vaccines that will be held on April 12, 2025. Carmina called up Becky asking if she is interested remembered to look out for the flu shot. Becky said yes and asked her to give me full name, birthdate and phone number contact information. Carmina also called up Mom Violy said alright and still faraway to decide.  Carmina felt Mom Violy should get the flu shot since we'll be traveling to California upcoming vacation.

End of the Year

As the year approaches people start to list down the things they would like to accomplish on the coming year. Sometimes we write it down on a notebook, but never come to the point to check mark stuff we have done off from our list. Sometime we pretend we will do it and keep putting it off. I am proud of myself this year I have accomplished more on what I didn't expect. I gave myself a goal to strive and make my life better. I have close friends who told me I need to find myself and do something I will enjoy doing for my future. Just like everyone else we have our own baggage's. We also have pain in our hearts.

Cover of A Book, Face and Social Media

Every book has a cover just like people we have a face. We open that book as we turn the pages. We look face to face to someone we only can see how they look. We cannot read the mind of a person. Some people have a social media account. We glance and look at their profile picture it will be their face, object that means to them so much or just a scenery. What ever it is. It represent the person they are. Did you know sometimes there are people who hide who they are? In their social media it can be an imaginary life. A life what they want to misjudge their audience. Just like when you glance at a person we don't really  know what that person feels until they express their emotional feelings. Not like in a book everything is written down as you read the thoughts from the author. Last night I was searching a new beach place to explore for the end of this year. I came up with a picture of a couple my friend knew. I asked, her why she hasn't removed her past i...
