Ecosia

This month I discovered Ecosia. Through Aileen Xu of Lavandaire on Youtube. And I'm very impress with this site. Ecosia is a search engine. Where you can plant trees while you search the web. Amazing right? I beth you are amazed too. But how can this be possible? It's simply easy, here's how. 1. You search the web with Ecosia. 2. Search ads generate income for Ecosia. 3. Then Ecosia use the income to plan trees. Ecosia was found in 2009. And it has a transparency page on there website. They post monthly about this updates. Learning about Ecosia this month is very timely. Because one of my concerns this month is the environment. This month I did some tidying on my file of paper. And I sort them and put the recyclables in a box. And when I filed a good amount I will give it to the lady who collects them in our place, so she can have some money. Accumulating this file of stuff is a eco concern. The proper waste management is need. Last year was the time when I discov

Which was launche last year in October. The Indéfene line is replace the Sophie Paris best sellers Sophie Lipstick. If you are a fan of the Sophie beauty you'll notice that they are improving the formulas and changing the packaging and the name even.

2017 Goals Mid-year Review

    How are you keeping your goals for this year 2017? I never really have a New Year resolution.  Aside from the word resolution has a negative vibe to me. I use the word "goals" instead. I can say, I'm doing good for my goals. Let me share with you how was my half year goals went through. 1. Start a blog. After years of thinking of starting a new blog, it finally push through this year. Although I admit that there is a flaw in the consistency of my posting I still achieve this goal this year. Honestly this blog is four years in the making.     2. Travel. One of my goals this years is to travel. And accomplish that last January and February. With a little trip in Manaoag, Binondo and Taguig. This made me realize that I can travel within a day without thinking of having the big amount of money to save. Traveling is possible and it can be cheap.   3. To graduate. I didn't even expect that I will even graduate this year (at least not this soon). 4. Study

My family and I went to the mall to bring my niece and nephew to play in some play centers. After that we went to Zack's Burger. Zark's have their food challenge. Where if you bit the time of their record in the burger eating challenge your burger will be free. The burger size is the typical american size. So it's bigger than the Filipino fast food size we have here in the Philippines. So you might ask if you can finish eating it with it's size? Yes, you can. Well my sister ask me that question. And I said yes. They don't have a pitcher size drinks if you are thinking to have that. When you are in a large group to dine there. Aside from burgers they also have nachos and etc.  Had you try Zack's Burger? What do you think about their food? Tell m
