Three Reasons to Grab a GrabCar

Image
Ever since taxi apps were launched few years ago, I must admit that I am one of the many who frequently uses them. Being a mom of two toddlers without a nanny, I have to be alert always and see to it that we can be in places safely and conveniently. Due to the increasing crimes committed, I am more paranoid not only for the safety of my self but also for my children. To those who are relatively new to these applications, I assure you, it is a big help! You will only get to spend a maximum 10 minutes for every booking and off you go to your destination. Late last year GrabCar was launched, but only this year that I was able to try and enjoy it. What are the benefits of riding one? Let me enumerate them to you. Ride in style. They have an option if you want to ride a sedan or the premium one which includes SUV car, which is good for group of passengers. You may be lucky to ride a Hummer! Cool eh? Convenient. Is your car coding? No problem. Just book a car aw...

Have you had a fair share of sun kissed glowing skin? I’m sure you have because the scorching heat is so unforgiving which urges you to hit the nearest pool or beach for a getaway. I am sure some of you who is very meticulous of your skin color that you tend to hide from the Sun’s UV rays because despite some lotions with the promise of UV protection, our outer layering cannot be spared from it.

TSM Finds at Converse Warehouse Sale 2015 in Marikina

Image
If there is one motivating factor that gives justice to my shopping is the word SALE. The hub and me loves anything but SALE, who doesn’t love shopping sale items anyway? Especially when it comes to the brand that we love most. It is our second time to go the Converse Warehouse Sale in Marikina and mind you, it was really as satisfying as the very first. We got items at 50% discount the most. They have shoes for as low as P500, but you just have to be very patient in searching for it. Since it is a warehouse sale, expect that you will shop literally in a warehouse. The ventilation will not be as good as the one in malls especially now that it is the dry season. Items are also displayed without boxes arranged respectively by sizes. They have several items on sale like apparels, bags and most especially shoes! Patience is the only key to search for items that will suit your fancy. The trick to shopping in this kind of sale is that you should have an eco bag handy at all times. You p...

Globally-Renowned Hereditary Cancer Test Makes its Way to the Philippines

In May 2013, Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie made headlines when she announced that she had undergone a preventive double mastectomy. Her controversial decision came after test results showed that she had 87 percent of getting breast and ovarian cancer because of a high-risk gene. Since then, Jolie’s health issue has brought the issue of hereditary cancer to the fore, encouraging women all over the world to get tested and seek consultations. Dubbed “the Angelina Jolie effect,” researchers found that testing rates increased from about 350 a week prior to Jolie’s news to about 500 a week after her announcement, reflecting a 40 percent increase. Health experts welcomed this surge in cancer awareness and spur of action, especially since cancer does run in some families. Approximately 5 to 10 percent of all cancers develop because a person inherited a genetic mutation in a way that encourages the disease to grow, according to Myriad Genetics. Myriad is the company that offered BRA...
