Addicted to Calendar Making

Since the Election ban, I admit, I haven't been very productive at work. So I found myself a hobby to keep my mind busy and also to sharpen some really rusty Photoshop skills. It turns out that managing my finances meant I have to pay bills on time, and that dates are important. It definitely meant that I need to get myself an organizer. Sure I have a digital organizer app installed in my phone, but it's always nice to actually have something to write on.

I basically use my phone as an alarm clock and for reminders, as far as using it as an organizer is concerned. Since I can't find a decent calendar or organizer around here, and I really don't want to spend hours on the Internet looking for the right one and then buying it for like a thousand pesos. Even the Starbucks planner doesn't entice me. I love Starbucks, but not the fact that I have to spend almost P 3,000 just for a really thick book, which I am sure I won't get to fully use.

What do I do?

I make myself one, of course. I made one according to my needs. It's not done yet, since I practically started making the layout just an hour ago and its ten minute til 5pm. LOL

April's almost up, but I still have plenty to do, which doesn't concern being an employee. Take a look at what I came up.

I found the original design on Pinterest, but if I printed it out, it would be too big to fit my bag. Not economical at all. So I modified it and voila!

Tell me what you think!

Zamboanga's Yakan Village is as Mindanao as could be

The author with the Yakan children With today's modern society, and Man's hurry to progress, many of our cultural heritages have been forgotten. Our forefathers, in their obsession to catch up with modern times, have neglected to pass on what we could have counted as part of history. But this ethnic tribe has not. The Yakan people originally come from the Basilan province. During the trying times of the '70s, some of the population opted to move to the safer Zamboanga City, bringing along with them traditions and culture as a means of making a livelihood. Although some of them may have moved on to become more progressive, a small village in Zamboanga City has preserved their culture, which is now known as the Yakan Village. This small group of people earn their livelihood by showing guests the traditional dance, Pangalay , which is also practised by other Muslim tribes, and by selling handwoven goods. Considering the amount of effort put into it and what it symb...

Jardin Maria Clara

It's about time I featured Jardin Maria Clara on here since I've been going to that park a couple of times now. Anyway, in preparation for today's marathon earlier , I ran with some friends who were also fellow participants yesterday. On the last run , there were only three of us, but this time, we were joined by Jayson, who was supposed to come to the last practice run, but instead slept through the morning. Since this session was held on the afternoon, he finally managed to come. This park is famous for the Butterfly Sanctuary and umm, for couples who like to be lovey-dovey even during the day. Can you see the couple in this picture?

Green Tea Facial Scrub

Image
I recently just found out that green tea bags/leaves can be used as facial scrub. Actually, I was just scrolling on my Twitter feed when bubzbeauty   posted her new video. Since watching that video, I was on a quest for clearer skin through green tea. Our family's most preferred drink next to water is green tea, so after finding out how the tea bags make good exfoliants, I just jumped from thinking that green tea was expensive, to green tea is sooo worth the price! Anyway, here's what you'll need: A used tea bag, still a little warm A teaspoon of honey Some rice flour  Here's the video so you can watch how it's done yourself: Just in case you don't have honey or rice flour, you can use the cleanser that you're comfortable with. I find honey too expensive to be used on my face, so I'd rather not use it. Instead of rice flour, I use baking soda, since baking soda is just like having microdermabrasion done on your face, and it also brig...
