Are you tired of waking up to a sun-drenched bedroom?

Ever get blind away from the sun every morning and during the day staying in your bedroom? Carmina had tried using a privacy film unfortunately it didn't work well enough to stick and stay on the windows. I wanted to find another solution that may occur to work better. After searching online my options was to get a blackout curtain yet seems strange since I have blinds on my windows. It also suggested to look for aluminum to prevent the heat enter inside your room makes the area cooler. I went ahead started looking for it notice there are different measurements. I had measured my windows to see which one would best suit my windows and check how many need to order. It goes based on one panel. They are so many sellers, yet the measurement is difficult to find. The first seller I had placed my order requested me to cancel my order since it was no longer available. I needed four pieces of 50 x 100 cm. It was frustrating at first since I had to keep clicking which seller had the righ...

Mobile Phone Experience

Every one year or two years I would get a new mobile phone depending on my family needing a new phone. I am the only girl and I get the new gadget that comes out in the market. I have a phone carrier through Globe in the Philippines. Our contract is every two years. I have four accounts from Globe. I have two accounts that the expiration date falls the same year. The other two interchange to the next following year. This way I get a new mobile phone every year. The first time I had a mobile phone was the iPhone 4s that just came out in the market during those year. I had my iPhone just for two weeks. It was stolen from me when I was shopping at Tutuban. It was the worse experience I have ever encountered in my life.  I realized that point in my life bringing an expensive mobile phone in Divisoria Mall is not safe in the Philippines. I never brought out my phone in public. There was a lady who dressed really nice and expensive clothing. She wore black sunglasses. She w...

My Experience Starting My Own Blog

I learn a lot of things when I started making this blog. I read a lot of articles and watched videos from YouTube letting people know it takes six to eight months to be accepted by Google AdSense. At first I was feeling discourage while reading tips from other people. Yes, it is true you need to purchase your own domain name. I took the courage to purchase my own domain name from Google Domain. You need to figure out what is the best domain name that suit the website you will always write about. I picked Carmina Lifestyle it is based on myself with all my experience. I read it is best to pick .com based on .net or .org. The reason why I wanted to write this is to let people know don't always believe what people say in the Internet. My reasons is they said, not to add videos to your blog and put it later when you get accepted by Google AdSense. Actually, I did the opposite I placed videos in my blogs from places I had traveled. I even placed website link where pla...

Party Favors For All Occasion

Party favors are inexpensive in the Philippines. Every time we have a relative visiting us they would always ask me to design a banner for their Grand child. The only thing I would ask them is pictures that are from a camera and the birthday theme in order to find the right design for that occasion. Here are the sample of the banners I have created on my own based on my own experiences: My sister asked, me to design one for her daughter when she had graduated this year. I brought the tarpaulin with me when I had arrived to attend the graduation of my niece. It is best to give at least two months of time to purchase items online. I didn't have enough time when my sister asked, me to purchase graduation party favor for my niece. The only possible solution was to find a seller that can provide it on time to arrive at a selective date. My relatives that usually arrive every other year would always ask me to accompany them at the 168 Shopping Mall, D...
