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. Two years ago, when we went to California got sick and that time it was covid season. I just wanted to protect myself even though hardly get sick in the Philippines. Two days before our flu vaccine received a SMS on our mobile phone number to confirm if we are going to get our flu shot. I had responded said yes.

Do you ever have someone you're talking asking what time it is?


Do you ever have someone you're talking asking what time it is? 

Sometimes you come across who you're with they keep asking you what time it is and consisting looking at what time this has happened to me a lot of times either in person or on the phone.

Questions I ask the person if they ask more than once:

  1. Do you have a date?
  2. Do you need to be home in a specific time?
  3. Are you expecting someone to come over?

When I reply with question number 1 the person laugh at me the person say why do you say that to me if I have a date because you're always asking me every time when I am talking to you. It becomes annoying at time you feel they no longer into your conversation might as well not talk anymore on the phone.

I also have someone come over your home by appointment and they keep looking at their watch to see the time.

I always ask them question number 1 and they say no just my sister might look for me why I am not home yet.

I always tell them why not call them up where you're at no need to worry not unless you have an appointment that you need to be in the same location.

You will notice people like to multi-task and do other things in between their schedule.

What happens when one appointment doesn't fall back in time or becomes delayed?

Do you have a backup plan in case it happens to you?

In the Philippines most people are on the Filipino time where they don't come on the actual time you expecting them to arrive there will be a lot of excuses you will hear.

Other times they like to hold people waiting for them.

I was young I was always taught to adjust your time from your home and the distance of transportation never let other people wait for you always leave fifteen minutes ahead of time this way you have allowance in your time in case you reach traffic or an accident on the road.

If you see me I am always prompt in time if I am late I will call or message you in case something does occur during our moment when we do meet each other.

I am on the phone I will not ask you the time I can look over at my phone or my watch to see what time it is you will have no clue I am looking at it only once if I have something else to do.

Otherwise my time is meant for you to spend time with when you’re on the phone or I see you in person.
