Acne Treatment Using Effective ProActiv Solution

Wazzup Pilipinas!

As a child, it has been less of a problem of mine to experience the troubling effects of an acne or pimple dilemma. I could imagine the disgusts of my other classmates suffering from an acne bombardment in their faces. Such a true destroyer of confidence.

Maybe because I grew up from the province of Pangasinan where our food is less of the oily and fried stuff we see and eat here in Manila. Fresh vegetables, fruits, root crops and other food direct from nature were abundant and so we didn't have to buy from fastfood chains and suffer guilt from all those greasy food.

Some say fried food contributes to the acne or pimple problem.....and if your diet is not paired with enough exercise and a positive perception in life, it also wreaks a distressful disposition.In severe cases, you need the help of experienced dermatologists to deal with your acne issues. Make sure to contact only a reputable aesthetic clinic so that you can get the right treatment in the right manner.

Let's start our every morning right, and end it still feeling glad we made it throughout a lengthy but fulfilled day!

Every summer, many of us wants to go to places that can keep us cool. Like malls, hotels and etc., that we forget that we still have those spots that is pleasurable in sight, feeling, and in budget.

Last May 2013, we celebrated our Mother’s birthday at Daranak falls, Tanay Rizal. We had to wake up early for the long and exhausting trip. We prepared the foods and we’re ready to go!

One of the most unforgettable vacation has brought me one of the embarrassing and painful moments during summer. It was when we went to a magical falls called “Paradise of Anton” , the way up there was really a hard one due to the large packs of stone and some of which are pointed. On our way there beside from the fact that the time you are able to reach the falls would take about 30 minutes which is really tired me out. While stepping in one of those stairlike rocks I suddenly slip and wounded myself which left a scar on my knee.

How I wish I could enjoy the night life right there on the shores of Pagudpod in Ilocos Sur but due to the the pain in my knee which unable me to go , so I stayed at the hotel rom browing from channel to channel and trying to foget the beach although I know that my cousins certainly are enjoying so I just played my cellphone until I fall asleep.

The time I woke up I checked my knees the wound was all dried out and I could walk again so I jumped out of bed and enjoyed the day in Vigan and Pagudpod, with the company of family.

Summer 2013 : Review Centers, Kumon, Cupcakes and Cashmere

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Summer 2013 was the summer vacation wherein I found myself extremely productive. Unlike my previous summer vacations where we visited Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Singapore and Hong Kong then we were pretty much useless before the trip, this year, I decided to concentrate more on preparing for the College Entrance Tests that I will be taking in the next couple of months.

My friends and I enrolled at PTS Review Systems for the College Entrance Test Review. It was also another way of bonding with my friends Vallea, Justine, Nicole, Aubrey and AC, that's why the classes weren't always dull. Some of our group's favorite teachers were Sir Enrico and Ros. We learned a lot of meaningful things in PTS that had not been imparted to us by our previous teachers back at school and that's why I think it was fulfilling and at the same time, fun because I enjoyed the company of the people around me. My mom also enrolled my sister and I in Kumon, a children's review center.

YEHEY WOHOO YES SUMMER TIME” when you hear this from the students, you will know it it’s an indication that summer has arrived. So what did I accomplish during summer?

I didn’t have a luxurious vacation like having a night in another country nor spend the week at Boracay but having and experiencing this simple but complicated things and matters this summer made me feel braver and stronger.

First meet my best friends the tallest is Nicole and the one in orange is Shenna. I just want to share this event because this is one of the things in summer that helped me a lot. May 21, 2013 we attended Shenna’s recital at Araneta Coliseum. At the venue, we shouted and supported Shenna by the time she was already performing. After that we had our dinner at a fast-food chain, like the usual we ate at KFC and it was already past midnight. I informed my parents that I'm sorry because I made them worry and I'll arrive at home late and all. I can’t even eat properly Shenna and Nicole kept on telling me “sorry ha mapapagalitan ka na uyy kain ka na sige ka papayat ka” these lines helped me to enjoy the day even I know that my parents will scold me when I got home.

What im saying is that we came from different schools like Shenna from San Benildo Nicole from St.Scho Pampanga and me at PCSHS but we don’t forget to bond with each other if we have time, this bond between us is “unkabokable” its strong this bond keeps on going for 7 years, its priceless.

Philippine Independence Day is an annual national holiday commemorating the Day of Freedom or "Araw ng Kalayaan". It is observed every 12th of June to commemorate the Philippine Declaration of Independence from Spain on June 12, 1898.

Independence Day was officially observed on July 4 until the Republic Act No. 4166, which set out to move the holiday to June 12, was approved on August 4, 1964.

It is a day when many people, including government officials, employees, and students, participate in nationwide celebrations in the form of parades and events related to Independence Day. However, the main highlight is the police and military parade in Manila headed by the country’s incumbent president, followed by a speech and a 21-gun salute.

The Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) conducted bid submission and opening activities yesterday (11 June 2013) for the P 3.769-Billion MRT-3 Capacity Expansion Project, disclosing that it has decided to drop a proposal to purchase second-hand trains from Spain.

“We looked at our options for purchasing some of the coaches from Metro de Madrid, but it turns out that this would not have significantly improved the timeframe we are working on,” said DOTC spokesperson Migs Sagcal.

“So we decided to continue with the ongoing procurement of new trains instead. This should also result in lower maintenance costs,” he added.
