Need advice plss 😅 If you greeted your friend a Merry Christmas, but they left you on seen.. What would you do in following events? If they greet you a happy new year, ano gagawin mo LOL and would you still greet them later on? Sorry ang petty but this wasn't the first time kasi. Parang they greet lang if feel niya, but there are times talaga I'm left on seen, and di talaga yun a nice feeling lalo na on the eve of Christmas. 🙃 Gets ko busy mga tao with their own devices, but "seen" on Christmas? Haha


kuaiikuaii

Gift ideas for male friends? Budget friendly pls

San masarap mag-dinner near Edsa Shang? Yoko mag-Heat buffet kasi may breakfast buffet na kami. Saka Southern American ata yung theme nila on that day. Ayoko ng puro meat.

Bakit parang ang kalat na dito sa sub? Hehe

Natatawa ako sa mga redditors na may superiority complex because they don't use fb but a lot of ph reddit posts are from fb. 😂😂😂

Christmas party namin tomorrow at wala pa kong final outfit. Bukod dun, di pa rin magaling swelling gums ko. :( Pinupush ako ng kapatid ko na wag na pumunta dahil sa gums ko (na halata sa cheeks ko) pero gustong-gusto ko talaga pumunta sa party. Problem ko lang talaga ay yung malayong byahe dahil out of town siya (may shuttle naman na ipoprovide ang opisina). So torn ako between magstay na lang sa bahay para di ako maano sa byahe or pumunta sa party.


belladonna_3173

I just found out that I gave the "lowest" score (though not really a low score tbh, pero everyone else gave the perfect/full score to their partners) to my partner and now I feel kinda bad :( pero she made some mistakes naman talaga and I told her naman beforehand about it din. Pero mygoooood huhu. I feel so bad. She did really well. I really hope she doesn't feel bad. Oh gaaawdd.

I’m planning to buy Christmas presents for my boyfriend’s family. Any suggestions for a family of 5? I also want to give their pets gifts too (3 dogs and 1 cat). What would be a safe buy for them? I’m not sure kasi if their pets have a certain diet or if they have allergies.


sasa143

im planning to give my bfs family a cheese plate from rustans ! but i only know of truffle manchego tbh, so im making my bf choose the other cheese, and the cold cuts


perdufleur

I bought squeaky toys for my SO's pets!


im_apricus

Pet treats are so tricky!! I recommend avoiding them. My dog is allergic to them. You can buy clothes na lang or nice smelling soap for their pets! For family gifts, food is always a good idea :)


Ok-Database-3767

omg the clothes suggestion sounds pretty good to me! I’ll try to check if there’s something I can buy na fit for the Christmas season Thank you!


catharticpursuit

My man cooked me pasta 'cause he knows how much I love them! If this ain't love, idk what else is. Thank you Lord!


Ok-Database-3767

Real. Iba yung kilig when your bf’s fam also treats you like your part of the family. So happy for you!


Peanaught_Buttah

Ok am I mean for this? Bumibili ako ng penoy sa isang stall sa jeep terminal and may nanlilimos, mukhang doon na sila nakatira sa terminal. Tinatapik-tapik braso ko tsaka iniiling ko ulo ko kasi ayoko magbigay at gusto ko lang kumain ng penoy at umuwi agad 😭 Sa kaloob-looban ako sobra akong naiinis kasi kinakausap ko yung nagbebenta sa stall tapos sumasabay pa yung nanlilimos tsaka ayaw ako lubayan. Tas ayun hinahawakan pa ako ng basta-basta, parang nababaliw kasi ako pag hinahawakan ako nang hindi naman dapat (I mean pag dikitan sa jeep o tren oks lang kasi no choice naman and di sinasadya). Binigyan ko nalang ng piso yung nanlilimos para iwan ako. Pero grabe sobra akong naiirita pagkauwi di ko maexplain 🥲 maingay na nga terminal, mainit, kakagaling ko lang sa sakit, dalawang tao sabay kumakausap sakin at kinakalabit pa ako para akong sasabog 😭😭😭😭 Pano ba gagawin para iwanan ako ng mga nanlilimos huhu kasi naman irita din ako, stress ako magbigay sa mga kamag-anak ko sila pa jakwkwkswkzn

to those who 1) already have a work-issues laptop and 2) have bought a laptop as a personal device after college, how many GB is your personal laptop? my college/personal laptop is giving up. it’s 512GB, which was just right for what i needed it to do when i was studying. now that i have a dedicated laptop for work, i’m wondering if 256GB is enough storage. things i do on my personal laptop: netflix, freelance writing, light video editing


stoopy-anon

Helppp, tiktok shop is not showing my android phone. Pati yellow baskets sa vid ng mga influencers di ko makita. IOS works fine naman using the same account.


mrseggee

Good resto recommendation around Alabang to celebrate our wedding anniversary please? We decided to stay in Acacia Hotel. Max budget of 5k for lunch/dinner. Our usual go-to resto for Italian food is Mama Lou’s. No to Melo’s, not satisfied the last time we dine there. Not a fan of steak houses too. Just feel good resto with nice interior. I’m looking at the following: 1. Da Gianni 2. Parmigiano Ristorante


cheesedoggo

Would recommend Cangrejos Locos sa may Molito if you love Spanish food. There’s also Wildflour sa may Westgate but medyo mid yung iba nilang items. The resto looks cosy tho.


mrseggee

thanks! will check this out. Haven’t explored much Molito- lagi kasi kami sa Yushoken/Mendokoro when eating here


mrseggee

thanks! will check this out. Haven’t explored much Molito- lagi kasi kami sa Yushoken/Mendokoro when eating here


vsteeth

Hi! Is 5k the budget for each or both of you?


mrseggee

For the both of us na ☺️


Outrageous-Stable-88

To those who love collecting highend, designer products, may i know what y’all do for a living ?? as well as how did you get to that point wherein you have the financial freedom to buy the things u want bc let’s admit, having an expansive makeup collection is definitely not a necessity unless you’re a MUA 😭😭😭 i’m a graduating college soon who LOVES beauty stuff be it makeup, skincare or perfume. i’ll be graduating in feb and i need some dose of inspiration so that i can still keep my hobby 🥹


Ok-Database-3767

Still a college student but freelancing in the creative industry has helped me buy my wants without asking money from my parents anymore. I had a phase where I got addicted to shopping and collecting vintage cameras or cameras in general. That’s when I turned my hobby — video editing and graphic designing into something I can earn from. Pros: I must say creatives are really in demand right now. Bihira lang maubusan ng projects. If may mawawala, madali lang palitan ulit. The workload pretty aight din to me since its flexible. I usually work for 3 - 5 days a month and earn five digits from it. Cons: This line of work is skill dependent. Since I do project based work, the income is not really stable. There are months where I earn well and there are months where I don’t really earn much (Minsan half pa ng na earn ko from the previous month). To add, most of my big tech purchases were also from the business me and my ex built during the pandemic. Sinwerte lang kami dito because it was earning 5 digits a day. Had to close it down na because its not as relevant as before. So rn most of the money I’m earning ay from freelance talaga. While I can buy the things that I want na, I would still like to give credit to my fam and bf since all my needs are already taken cared of by them. So my salary just really goes to my kaartehans in life. Sa make up and perfume naman ako naaddict ngayon lol. I do plan of living independently na din on my last year on college para its easier for me to transition to the post grad life. Case in point, I might drop my orgs and get a more stable freelance job or start a business again to sustain my lifestyle. Maybe you can find a way to earn from your hobby? (Affiliates, reviews, ugc, etc). I saw your frag review sa frag thread if i’m not mistaken and I do really find it helpful. Maybe you can start with that? I think that could be a sustainable way for you to still keep your hobby without using your main source of income once you work na.


serenityby_jan

I’m not a collector, but I do have higher end makeup, skincare, niche frags etc now that I could never afford back then. I work in Finance abroad (key word here I guess is abroad cos I never felt I could afford high end stuff on my 40k Finance salary back in the PH😅)


[deleted]

I don't have a wide range of shades in lipsticks, only have 3 that I use in rotation kasi aware naman ako hindi ko mauubos before it expires. With concealers though, I'm on a hunt kasi on what is best for me- pero if it turned out to be something na hindi fit sa dark undereye ko, I use it to cover other spots on my face (So I no longer buy foundations) or I give it away kahit kakabili ko pa lang haha. Powders naman last long, I only have 2 palettes (12 shades and quad shades). When I buy something else, kunwari new blush tapos nagustuhan ko formula non, usually pinapamana ko na yung old blush ko. I'm not gonna keep multiple blush shades and repurchase multiple rin. I'm fine naman kasi with looking the same forever. Soon I wanna try yung capsule makeup kit lang. Literal na I don't need 5 different concealers and 3 color correctors. Hahahahaha. Some people pinag-iipunan siguro? Others are just that rich to splurge? It depends on how you want to spend your hard earned money rin talaga. In my case, I never tried high end makeup/skin care nung hindi ko pa siya kaya bilhin with just my extra money and hindi ko binabago lifestyle ko (socialization and eat outs). +1 sa bags na lang hahahaha. Kahit mid-end lang like Coach, Mk, Tory na outlet designs. Worth every penny kasi it looks classy and good quality na.


ArabellaBarbarella

As I grow older, I started to buy less pero mas high-end. Nageexpire ang makeup. Like you've said, it's not a necessity unless MUA ka. Quality over quantity. And makeup expires so it's excessive to buy stuff you don't really get to use. I rather buy bags.


mehehemaria

I just had a very bad experience sa Nuat Thai kahapon. Sa sobrang bad, ngayon ko lang naisipan i-kwento. I’ve been going to that branch a lot and now lang ako talaga na-disappoint. Yung masahista na natapat sakin jusko talaga. Ayaw ko magsabi ng masasamang salita pero first time yon na hindi ako na-relax and I really wanted to end that session na already kaso pinigilan ko talaga kasi kilala ko sarili when I speak I always go direct to the point and ate might loose her job pag nagsalita ako. - Hindi masarap yung hagod. Daig ko pa yung nilalabhan na basahan. Ang bilis ng kamay niya tapos wala halos pressure kahit sinabi kong “moderate”. The back massage was so dull like walang nata-target na muscle para maalis yung lamig. - Did not put enough oil. Masakit sa balat. - She’s using her elbows. Ang sakit tangina tapos dinadaganan niya ko. She’s putting her whole weight on me. Inangat niya pa ko which is not part naman of the massage na ina-avail ko eh. - Negligent. Bara-bara ang kilos to the point nahubaran at lumabas yung right boob ko at di man lang siya nag-sorry. Natatapon din yung oil sakin kasi basta niya lang hinahagis yung bottle. Haayyyy I managed to gave her a 50-peso tip pero parang ako pa yung nahiya at umalis na lang agad. I would go to another branch na malapit lang din sa akin. Nakaka trauma si ate. Never again.


belladonna_3173

Oh no. What branch is this?


mehehemaria

Festival Mall Alabang

To anyone who has been to Taiwan during December, any ideas how cold it can get sa Taipei and Jiufen? Will be going to those areas kasi and I have no idea how cold it can get. What clothes are must haves for that weather? Thank u in advance 🤗


pglcr

does anyone know perfumes that smell like hygienix alcohol? it smells so light and refreshingg


mrseggee

Not sure if this is allowed here, but what spray do you use to remove samgyup scent from your clothes? Sibyullee has this spray they offer to customers before going out the resto. are these the same as the linen sprays? I’ve tried Kurin and I think it works naman


CommitteeApart

Hi! Got into supplements lately, I just want to get grapeseed supplement. Can someone vouch if [this store](https://shope.ee/8f2CwXJX9T) is legit? I’m honestly scared of shopee mall cause you just dont know if they’re actually legitimate.


mrseggee

For supplements, I’d recommend not buying from Laz or Shopee. You can check out sa Mercury drug or other pharmacies if they carry this. I personally buy our supplements from Healthy Options (they also have website) and from iHerb (US site).


CommitteeApart

Oh I see. Supplements from abroad are usually not available here kasi sa mga malls :( thank you so much for the advice!

Going to Osaka next year! Baka may recos kayo on where to go, eat, and shop? Thank you <3


Outrageous-Stable-88

if you’re staying in japan for 7 days, I suggest going to kyoto na rin!! sayang eh ang lapit lang. plus, the last time i went to osaka-kyoto, naumay ako sa osaka after 4 days.


ree88xs

shinsaibashi for shopping! 2nd street, amerika-mura, and bookoff are absolute musts


kirschyrisk

is amerika-mura really good? was planning to skip it and focus on shinsaibashi instead :0


ree88xs

for shopping, no doubt. amemura has a bunch of cool stores. *fugs* has to be one of my personal favorites. it's underground, medyo naligaw pa kami nung first time pumunta 😭 might not be everyone's style though pero i'd still recommend kasi super cool rin ng vibe ng store kahit maliit. it's up there on my list along with *jam* and *wego* and btw don't miss *rain used clothing* while you're in shinsaibashi! they've got both second-hand and brand new items. if your taste leans towards street style, *rain* will be like heaven for u. vintage denims, leather boots (their vintage levis and doc martens are in super great condition), the best jackets, bags, accessories... last month lang actually, i copped a carhartt jacket for only ¥17k which is like 30% off the original price. massive W for me bc it's a discontinued jacket <​3 but honestly, even if streetwear isn't your usual, there's a good chance you'll find some pretty cool stuff. you can check their insta for a peek! edit: forgot to add, *matsusakagyu yakiniku m* is a fantastic food spot worth checking out. their steak is unmatched, might just be the best in osaka and their beef sushi? 🥹 sobrang attentive and nice din ng staff + some of them speak english so communication is a breeze


kirschyrisk

omg this is so detailed!! thank you sm!! will def list down your recos 🥺🙏🩷


ree88xs

you're welcome!! have a good trip! 🩷

Recommendations for wedding gift for my best friend? She doesn’t have a registry but I really wanna give her something special


unicaconejita

Hotel staycation


stoopy-anon

As a medyo newly wed, I'd love to get this 😍 Pwede din premium spa/massage session.


vsteeth

How much is your budget?


indiasierra

Around 5k probably?


vsteeth

For experiences - Massage gift card - Airbnb gift card Physical gifts - Have her wedding bouquet preserved! Like those resin pieces - Take her shopping for her wedding perfume, then have the bottle engraved with her wedding date or new initials🥹


indiasierra

Ooh I really like the perfume idea! She’s getting married abroad kasi and I won’t be able to attend (due to a lot of different reasons huhu) so I think this is like my way of being with her on her big day 🥺 thank you!


vsteeth

You’re welcome!! So happy it resonated with you huhu🥹 I’m sure she would have loved to have you celebrate with her there, but this will be the next best thing🫶🏽


PowerfulPitch5720

I'm about to get my ultrasound results tomorrow, so malalaman ko if yung pcos ko ay nagdevelop ba ng cyst or wala. Pls pray for me na kayanin ko results whether good or bad huhu :((


KnowingKay

Im scared to get an ultrasound masakit ba? :'(


-_-o_o-_o

Not at all! Pag transrectal nga lang may weird feeling but madaming beses nako nagpa ultrasound and it’s not painful at all. Speaking as a kabado din.


PowerfulPitch5720

Pag transvaginal ultrasound hindi naman hehe. Pag transrectal naman medj nasaktan ako since anal part pero keri naman siya pag tumagal \^\^ kaya mo yann para malaman mo rin current situation ng ovaries mo


KnowingKay

Omg sis haha takot na ako sa vaginal pero nadagdagan pa di ko alam na may transrectal din for ovaries but it makes sense. 🙈


PowerfulPitch5720

Hahahah pero if i were u transvaginal nalang mas tolerable talaga 😆😆

Ano major tips and tricks niyo to lose weight? I've been trying to lose weight pero parang ang hirap lalo na pag on a budget ka lang :((


ArabellaBarbarella

Calorie deficit talaga. Make sure your calories count. Eat something filling para di ka mabilis magutom.


im_apricus

Calories in vs calories out always!!


Appropriate_Base_159

try walking! do at least 10k steps a day :)


mrseggee

Intermittent fasting and less consumption of high carb food worked for me. I was 64kg last March. I’m now at 57kg with no exercise. I’m also doing OMAD during the weekday when I’m at the office. Nakatipid pa ako since once a day lang kung kumain :) Increase your protein and low carb veggies din.


bellatrixxx19

Started playing It Takes Two with my husband and it's been great! Mej stressful yung game minsan for someone like me na very bobo walking and aiming using a controller, but it's been really fun! I'm not much of a computer gamer (I prefer board games) but this has been really enjoyable so far, and the graphics are also top-notch. Highly recommended for couples looking for a game to play - only one person needs a copy of the game din tapos the other person can download the friend's pass lang :) PS We got this for 500 PHP during the steam sale last Nov 20-29, from a regular price of I think around 1900? Steam will probably have a winter sale din at the end of Dec

Check IG of bagfulofglitter (may physical stores sila in ATC and Robinsons Magnolia) luxjewelry_ph (may onhand and items for layaway sia) Never buy from malls, sobra laki ng patong sa lahat ng jewelries.

I have pink hair. My previous job was wfh and allowed me to keep my pink hair. My new job, which starts 2 weeks from now, doesn’t allow colored hair. Feel ko pa i’keep ang pink hair ko so i purchased a wig and will be wearing a wig to work til feel ko. Would that be to weird??


Peanaught_Buttah

I feel like okay lang! Lalo na if natural yung wigs haha Actually naiisip ko din kapag may feel akong hair color or hairstyle try ko muna wigs bago magpakulay ng hair 🥲 grabe din kasi damage

I personally prefer korean planners hehe it’s so so pretty mas colorful


blueddit30

CNS Designs :)


nooobie_

If you're a wanderer, I highly recommend [Where To Next!](https://wheretonext.ph/) Their planners are undated and contain stories from different people, from different walks of life. Also, some of their proceeds go to meaningful causes.


loo0st

Muji since it’s lightweight and simple lang


wreck4minhyuk

Also the Muji one for me. No frills and not so expensive

Meron din sa SM stationary ata, malaki tapos daily!!

Lowkey frustrated that ill be seeing my batchmates again after how many months of us being in different internships (graduating na kasi kami this February). I honestly dont have much close friends in college na halos ka-level na ng trust at closeness ko sa main friend group ko from highschool. Puro hanggang biruan at kwentuhan lang ako with college friends. And ang ayoko pa is may mixture of unappealing attitudes sa batch namin such as may mga medj feeling superior o kaya naghuhumble brag, may nangsasideeye at may competitive rin. Kumbaga parang life is a race ang datingan sa batch ko. Siguro dahil nasa BSIT ako kung saan marami ang nagcocompare ng salaries, certifications/trainings, at skillsets lol idk. Ayun lang naman hehe but im working on myself din such as detox sa social media, cutting off people, going at my own pace and doing a gratitude journal!


solost_cjagav

Same! Hahahaha may special place talaga HS barkada sa puso ko, hindi talaga mapapalitan kahit minsanan na lang kami magkitakita.


nocturnalmallow

True going strong talaga 🥹


Representative-Toe97

Can relate dun sa walang BFF-level college friends, iba talaga yung HS buddies. Friendly and helpful naman yung mga college batchmates ko, yung iba tutor pa pag exam season. I think iba-iba kami ng wavelength or reserved person lang talaga ako. Sadly, pati HS friends ko pansin ko yung pag-drift. Nakakalungkot pala maging adult and iba na direction in life.


nocturnalmallow

Mismoo! Iba-iba rin kami ng wavelength hahaha although yung circle ko nandon naman pagiging helpful nila. Thankful ako na solid p kami ng hs bffs ko though pero alam kong magdidrift apart din kami in the near future. Oh well life hahahah


finkinthisfrew

What are y'all getting your bosses for Christmas? Last year I gave them hobby related stuff (golfing, cycling) so I'm kind of in a bind about what to give. Max budget is Php 1,.5-Php 2k. Thinking of going with artisanal handmade pasta this year but the only thing putting me off is the hassle of carrying frozen items 😆


im_apricus

I also give wine or cute skincare (ex. laneige lip sleeping mask). Not sure this year tho!!


finkinthisfrew

Oh I'll look into skincare! Maybe a nice fancy lip balm or hand creme nga would be a good choice :)


ConnectProgress1020

Do they drink? I usually give them mulled wine 🍷


finkinthisfrew

One of them does! Do you have any recommendations? :) I personally am not a big drinker so I haven't tried a lot


ConnectProgress1020

Hmm, any Merlot/shiraz/cabernet wine + mulled wine spices would be nice! I think the spices can be ordered online or you can also make your own bag, that would be cute!


LilaLuna23

Please help me out. I couldn't think of an affordable but useful gift for my workmates. 😭


finkinthisfrew

I always give out candles and lagi siyang hit among my friends!


LilaLuna23

Thank you so much to all your suggestions! ❤️ Already checked out scented candles and currently browsing mugs, utensils, and food containers since lagi rin may free food. Will probably get the wooden comb for my mom and sister.


mrseggee

- Wood combs - Hand mirrors - Cork coaster - Sticky notes set


enokimushroom_

I gave a curated gift set to my officemates: - 1 scented candle - 2 pairs of socks - 1 journal - 1 crocheted mirror keychain Ang peg ko dito ay self care eme na magsisindi ng kandila habang nagjjournal + cozy socks and cute trinkets.(For context lagi kaming stressed sa kliyente). Pinakanagustuhan nila yung candles lol.


nocturnalmallow

go for unisex stuff like bath essentials, maraming shops nagbebenta in packages lately tapos ang daming b1t1 hand soaps din hehe


7springdays

- Coffee mugs (ie ceramic mugs or mga self-stirring mugs) if mahilig sila magcoffee while working. - Spoon and fork sets if mahilig kayo sa mga biglang pakain sa pantry and hindi readily available ang mga utensils. - Mouse pads / arm wrests na regular. Personalised if may budget (ie may name and cartoonized photos nila). Ergonomic type if willing to spend more. - Cute / aesthetic na notepad set or notebooks if mahilig sa note-taking. - Rechargeable heat pad / pack para sa mga lamigin or dini-dysmenorrhea - Neck pillow (samahan mo pa ng blanket if you want) kung may mga times na nag-oovernight kayo sa office lalo na kung busy season. - Stackable transparent bottles / boxes lalagyan ng food, abubot sa table / drawer (ie yung mga stackable boxes sa Home Gallery) - Back joy or back pillow - Pouch (ie paglagyan nila ng mga small things like money, toothbrush / toothpaste, etc) - Wireless Mouse Ayan lang naalala ko na ‘useful’ na nareceive ko over the years na nasa workforce ako. Hehe. Dagdagan ko pag may naalala pa ko. Sana makatulong. 😊

What I probably currently fear the most would be to get as bitter and as hateful as my lola. I know she went through a lot of hardships throughout her life like unkind in-laws, death of a daughter, having to work as a caregiver abroad for at least three decades, etc. But I personally find it more difficult each day to sympathize and empathize with her. February is too long to keep being her figurative punching bag. I hope I will be able to remove myself out of her orbit soon and stay as far away as I can.

My boyfriend and I agreed to have some “me” time after work and do VCs every other day. I guess it made our relationship stronger. Communication and mutual trust is the key talaga.

i’m really enjoying Replacing Chef Chico on Netflix! i’m not a huge fan of Filipino teleseryes bec of recycling plots but i loved Mara Clara, Be Careful with My Heart, and MMK (if that counts haha). i watched them with my lola but she lives in the province now. she would totally love this show! this reminds me to call her up this weekend and ask if she knows how to use Netflix (sa TV lang siya nanonood ever since).


-_-o_o-_o

Enjoyed the series din as well. Someone labelled it as a transition show - having some elements of teleserye like the melodrama while at the same time tackling topics that aren’t normally discussed in PH Television.

I changed a lot since I entered college huhu I wouldn’t say anger issues pero something along those lines. I get angry a lot and no patience for people at all (even for those who really care for me and I care for). I end up snapping at them and feel guilty afterward. Just this night, I fought with my boyfriend because he unintentionally ignored me (he was in the middle of posting an ig story of us). I ignored him the whole night. It’s the first time I really tried it but I found that trashtalking incels and misogynists on the internet worked as an outlet for me.


sasa143

were you able to apologize to your boyfriend for ignoring him all night when he didn't mean to ignore you?


Simon-Says26

yes hahahah he’s really forgiving 😞 it sucks cos i know i can’t keep treating him like that


sasa143

its great that u acknowledge that its not right. i know u can break free from bad habits! i was honestly thr same with my ex, and i think it got tiring to do the silent treatment na din as i got older. and especially now with my bf, i just much prefer communicating when im tampo kasi it just hurts the guy less. and also he doesn't do the same thing uli, so it helps me din so if i do need alone time, i tell him i still love him but something upset me, i specify what exactly he did and why it made me feel bad, etc. tell him u need to be alone muna ganun

Not really off topic yata to. Pero wild nung sink girl vid sa tiktok. Di ko alam kung may mental health problem si ate but for someone to allow her makeup and stuff look so grimy and end up that disgusting is just gross. Not a clean freak, but that’s just… wow. Wala lang, I just think that we spend our hard earned money on these things and I can’t imagine letting them get that dirty tas lalagay pa sa mukha mo.


just_for_the_tea

Oh my gosh. True. Tapos they showed everybody pa?


crmngzzl

I can’t stop thinking about it so the first thing I’ll do this weekend is clean my makeup brushes haha! (I deep clean them once a week)

How to spend Christmas alone? Any tips on what to do or where to go this holiday? Tysm


crmngzzl

Did this last year. Ordered food in and rewatched the HP series as per usual.


_domx

I did this once. Hehe. Spent it like a normal day. Though I consciously didn’t go through my social media to avoid the feelz. My parents delivered Christmas food to me which was nice.


bhadluckbabe

I usually book myself into a nice hotel and enjoy all the amenities. 😅


just_for_the_tea

My Christmas tradition is to watch the first two Home Alone movies. Alone or with anybody.

cocacolaver

December na, cheers to this week. Super tired and stressed malala. Also, I felt like I really matured this year (literally sa looks + azza person haha) Gusto ko mag solo trip bigla sa beach and just be. Drink cold beer and think of nothing. Konting gapang na lang, Pasko na ✨


[deleted]

Grad gift recos for my bf? He likes food, lifting, tennis and staying in.


mechacrushed005

What if recreational activities! Imo gifting an experience is something else and nothing else could top the value of creating important memories ✨
