No traffic, no waiting room, just a therapist who knew exactly where she needed relief—Carmina's review proves in-home massage can outshine any spa.

It has been over a month when Becky and Carmina had always wanted to do a spa together. Becky started working at the call center body gets painful. Carmina used to get her home service massage from Mary Ann since she had moved back to Davao had to find someone else. At first Becky wanted to go to a spa where just walk into a place yet the prices, we're different while searching online depending what type of services you prefer.

In our chat group, we discussed which restaurants we’d like to dine at, and Mom Violy has been eager to try the all-you-can-eat lobster her best friend recommended at Solaire. Carmina took charge of making the reservation through Solaire's Resort  website and asked the family which seating time they preferred, choosing between two options with different time frames. Carmina registered it under Mom Violy's name and phone number. She received an email for our confirmation, and a week beforehand, a reminder was sent to Mom Violy's mobile to confirm if we were going ahead or not.

When we arrived, we were informed we couldn’t enter the dining area until exactly 5:30 p.m...

Mom Violy had been wanting to dine at Tapenade , a place that brought back memories of her visit seven years ago. This time, she made a reservation to enjoy Mediterranean dishes in celebration of Carmina’s birthday. Carmina didn’t get to choose where to eat, as Mom Violy usually follows her own cravings. While browsing the menu, Mom Violy couldn’t recall what she had ordered all those years ago. Shocked by the prices, she pondered her options, still unable to remember the dish she once had. In the end, she decided to order the Gambas Al Ajello as an appetizer, while Carmina chose the Norwegian Salmon.

Carmina says Bebang’s halo-halo is summer in a spoon — but is it the real deal or just pretty colors in a cup?

Since last year, Mom Violy and Carmina had been wanting to try the much-talked-about  Bebang's Halo-Halo , but even when we passed by, the timing was never right. Mom Violy kept saying she’d wait until a branch opened closer to us. Then Becky told Carmina there was one along her commute route to work. The best part was that the Tomas Morato branch in Quezon City had just opened. When we arrived at CTTM Square , we found plenty of restaurants on the second floor. While checking the menu, we let the customers behind us order first. Mom Violy asked them for recommendations, and they suggested the Presidential for first timers. Unlike other places, Bebang’s Halo-Halo doesn’t have size options—everything comes in a standard size, making ordering easier. Seniors and PWDs get a discount per order, and you’re given something that lights up when your halo-halo is ready for pickup. Service was quick, so the wait wasn’t long at all. Each order comes in its own green plastic bag with a table...

From private practice to public premiere: Carmina’s first YouTube debut changes everything.

Every day, I would join Lyn’s livestream after being active and chatting with others who were also watching. Lyn once advised us to premiere long videos since they count toward public watch hours, just like livestreams. She suggested they be over ten minutes, but to me, that felt too short premieres felt more like livestreams where you entertain viewers for one, two, or even three hours straight. Recently, while on vacation, I decided to try my first premiere since my video was an hour and thirty-six minutes long. At first, I was nervous as a newbie, unsure if it was the right move, but sometimes you have to step out of your comfort zone to see what might help with YouTube watch hours . Carmina joined her friend's livestream to announce an upcoming premiere on Tuesday, January 13, Philippine time , since many viewers are in different time zones. It’s common during livestreams for the host to make such announcements and pin them so other viewers can turn on notifications and subscr...
