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.

Becky's Craving for Iced Caramel Macchiato from Barista Coffee Beans

Carmina asked around where we can get some coffee inside Fishermall. Someone suggested to try Barista located at the ground floor located across from the Christmas tree decorations. Becky asked, Carmina to assist her reading the menu since the print was too small.  Carmina asked, the person what is their best seller. The person said on the cold beverages it is Sapporo.  Becky decided to get the Iced Caramel Macchiato.  Ate Cynthia wanted the Matcha being cold beverages. Becky asked, Carmina what is that you want.

She said, the matcha taste it is the powdered version. Becky enjoyed her drink with any complaints.  NOT SPONSORED. Subscribe @ Carmina Lifestyle YouTube  a place to look, discover and share.

Carmina Reunite with Ate Cynthia after 29 Years

Ever have people you've met in the past and never saw them for a long time. Becky has been trying to put Carmina to meet her older sister Cynthia for a long time. We just don't have the right time. The last time I met Ate Cynthia was year 1994 when I was living in the Philippines. I met Becky with our common friends. Becky had invited me over to her home where she grew up with her siblings. During that time, I hardly spoke Tagalog since I grew up in California. I only understood Tagalog since my parents spoke to me when I was young. I spoke back in English. It was great seeing Ate Cynthia for just the day. We found out that we had a lot of things in common when it comes to food. The reason why I call her Ate is because she is older than me for sign of respect. After spending time, I found Ate Cynthia love taking pictures of the scenery and videos.  Ate Cynthia is very reserved, simple and outspoken person easy to talk too.  Who knows it is just our first meeting and one day we...
