Nothing ordinary for DECIEM
I’ve tried so many products for skincare routine and different skin regimens but for a bang for the buck, The Ordinary is always going to be number 1. I discovered this accidentally near Yonge-Bloor area. I was walking around during lunch time and I saw this “NOT BAY” sign in Yorkville. I got curious and […]

Here’s why you need to support Black Lives Matter if you’re Filipino
We should stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. We have to support them. We should relate our ownhistory to whatever is happening right now. It is similar to what our ancestors and families went through! We should not let systemic racism happen to them. I need to remind everyone WHY we have […]

I think our society is creating its own brackets of generations where they draw conclusions and/or generalize each group. I cringe every […]

new haul of a book hoarder
Squeezing some reading time in my busy week with the coolest bottle of La fiole which I found out recently. I’ve been trying some books outside my usual genre, so far I’m enjoying it. I wish I could finish all by the end of next week.

YES – on strict border policy. NEVER AGAIN for war
This was taken from the Nuit Blanche event. People could cast their vote and there’s a large screen showing the results. NO is leading the poll but I’m quite surprised that it’s almost a tie for them. I voted for No, and I stand firm on that decision [It’s obvious why I chose No].. PARIS ATTACK I […]
