Ito ang sa akin:
Tattoo Choker Necklace - para lang brown nylon na nakabraid. Mura lang ito kaya daming girls ang nagsuot.
Butterfly Clips - ang alam ko, si Jolina nagpauso nito sa Pinas and ito talaga ang silat na accessory nung 90s sa girls.
Sandals with Socks - nasa US yung Aunt ko before and nagpapadala ng colorful socks na Fruit of the Loom brand. So I felt I’m a little “extra” kasi mostly, others wear black gray and white socks
Guitar String Bracelets - the more, the better. Binili ko pa yung sa akin sa Anonymous store sa Glorietta.
Colorful Nails - marami akong nail polish (isang puno ng Damish cookies canister) na pinag iipunan ko ang pambili. I color my nails according to the occassion or holidays and put designs like stripes, hearts, different colors. Weekly, bagong kulay qt inaabangan ng classmates ko. Kaya madilaw ang nails ko noon. Influence din ito ni Jolina haha

Here’s mine:
- We are at a team holiday event and we were talking about games. Most of us are in the mid-30s to 40s then this one Gen Z colleague asked what’s Limbo Rock. We had moments where we had to explain the references to him. Everyone usually gets them except him.
- I was listening to the radio one Sunday morning, and they were playing “the classics.” I was expecting The Beatles, The Carpenters, and Dionne Warwick… then they played a Spice Girls song. After that came songs from boy bands and girl groups from our generation.
- When teens call you “Tita” now instead of “Ate”.
- More people use “po” and “opo” when they’re talking to me.
Edit: Salamat sa nagshare ng stories, it made my day! Keep sharing!
Kinakagat ko sa gitna (crosswise) para makita ko yung powdery chocolate. Hinihimay ko ang pag kain nito.
I saw Benson’s Eclair sa Lazada but I doubt it’s the same thing.
May favorite ba kayong nag-iba o nawala na ngayon?
I remember these TV commercials noon: McDonald’s Paboritong Apo, PLDT’s Suportahan Ta Ka and Hello Billy at Perla’s Wais na Misis. May series pa nga yung iba.
Pero naalala ko din yun jingles ng Seiko Wallet, United American Tiki-Tiki at Mr. Clean Labadami Labango sa radyo.
Maraming iconic talaga. Fita’s Sports Car, Coca-Cola’s Karl Kalabaw, Biolink”s Dark-skinned Baby, San Miguel’s Shiboom to name a few.
Tulungan nyo ko maalala!
I saw some videos about this “theory” that older people tend to wear their bags crossbody, while younger people wear them on one shoulder.
I’ve noticed this here in Makati, and it seems accurate. What do you think, fellow kwarentahins?

Nagpunta kaming perya mga 7 years old ako. Naglaro ako nitong beto-beto. Na-amaze lang ako at naengganyo kasi nanalo ako. Then in the end, natalo lahat yung bigay na pera sa akin. Napagalitan ako ng lola pag-uwi at sabi may daya daw yun. 😅
Well at least sa murang edad pa lang, alam ko nang walang magandang maidudulot ang sugal. 😁
Kayo ba, nagsugal din ba kayo nung bata? Anong nilaro nyo, yung coin toss (cara cruz)?

Napakahilig ko sa music. I’ll brag na I can guess a song under 10 notes. I follow this music professor (yata) na mahilig magpahula ng old songs and madalas tama ang sagot ko. Or kapag may song sa radio, alam ko agad kung ano. Limited lang syempre sa mga gusto kong songs.
Pero yung mga kanta, walang hilig sa akin. Usually ang song choices ko sa karaoke yung mababa lang at puro hinga hahaha!
Naisip ko lang kanina na mag-inquire ng vocal lessons and itutuloy ko na! Magstart ako by end of this month. Medyo mahal pero pwede ko naman kasi ipareimburse sa work kasi part ng benefits namin yung sa fees sa skills.
Goal ko lang naman ay pang karaoke lang na level.
Share ko lang naman. We shouldn’t stop learning new things kahit 40s na tayo.
Whenever I see a restaurant on reels or someone recommends a place, I immediately save it to a Google Maps list called “Food!”.
Originally, it was just my way of keeping track of restaurants I wanted to try. But later, it became useful whenever I’m traveling or just exploring an area. Instead of rushing to search for a place to eat, I simply open my list and check what’s nearby that I’ve already saved. No more “San tayo kakain?” panic moments.
I actually shared this hack with my table during GEB because it’s a simple thing to do but has been helpful for me.
Aside from restaurants, I also create Google Maps lists for my trips. I have lists like “Hanoi Day 1” and “Sa Pa Day 3” where I’ve already saved the places I plan to visit. I find this useful as some destination names can be difficult to type. I usually DIY my trips and rely on public transpo, having everything saved in one place makes it easier to get around. I can just open the list and check instead of searching from scratch every time. Google Maps is free, so I try to make the most out of it.
Does anyone else do something similar, or do you have your own system for keeping track of restaurants you want to try or places you want to visit?
Lahat yan nakarelate ako 🤣
What else do you think is missing? Ako yung kumakanta or voice lessons sa harap ng fan.

Gusto ko lang gumawa ng song playlist for kwarentahins. Sa dami ng sumikat na songs noon, baka nakalimutan ko na yung iba. Suggest naman kayo. Any genre ito.
Thank you. 👋
Edit: Salamat sa suggestions, iadd ko lahat yung available sa Spotify.
Edit 2: Ang daming kanta!!! Baka iseparate ko sa 2 or 3 playlists kasi mahirap magsenti tapos biglang kailangan ko magMacarena after. 😅😅😅
Nice to meet everyone! I’m not sure if lahat ay nakakuha, pero pwede ko naman ibigay next time. I hope you enjoy this Kwarentahin souvenir!
Puro para sa married men and women ang recent posts, paano naman kami? Hahaha kwentuhan thread lang ngayong holiday.

Photo info: Sumakay ako ng ultralight plane sa Mati City. Takot ako sa heights pero mas lamang ang kagustuhan ko ng thrill kaya ayan, kasama sa bucket list ko.
I’ll be traveling back to these places November at January. Baka gusto nyo quick meetup like coffee? If ever, I’ll put it in my itinerary. Dumayo na ako sa Davao before and meet some Reddit friends there.
Maganda, marami tayo haha. If gusto nyo lang naman.
Took this quick weekend trip last October with my friend of 26 years. Exhausting but so much fun and absolutely worth it.
Fellow Kwarentahins, can you give me some words of encouragement? Maybe jokes as well to cheer me up, I’m feeling so down today.
I’m sorry, I’m not ready to share the details.
