Dumederetso ba kayo sa ospital pag may sakit kayo?

Do you stay at your place lang or go to the hospital? I currently have a fever and usually iniinuman ko lang to ng biogesic and tinutulog. Pero sa ngayon kasi parang ang OA nanghihina talaga ako. Pumupunta na ba kayo ng ospital or wait it off until like 3 days na and may lagnat ka parang rin? Wala naman problem yung sa expenses tbh since may HMO naman din ako.

skl na microwaveable pala yung ice cream containers

skl since having people over, my cousin told me that microwaveable yung ice cream containers ng selecta/magnolia!

they brought food over in ice cream containers kase and i told them to get the microwaveable bowls to heat it pero sabi nya na it's safe naman na daw. di pa ako naniwala nung una kase nga plastic pero pinakita nya yung container lid where it does say na microwave-safe siya (except for the lid)

after nun, chineck ko yung ice cream containers na meron ako. ginagawa ko lang kase silang lalagyan ng karne sa freezer and totoo nga siya lol

wala lang tuwang tuwa ako. better reason for me to keep them instead of tossing them in the trash. pwede ko na kase nyan idiretso sa microwave yung frozen meats to defrost them quickly. less gastos na rin to buy food containers hehe

hopefully, this is a helpful tidbit din for some people here! so far, sa selecta and magnolia ko pa lang siya nakita

Looking for tips to eliminate small cockroaches - SMDC Condo

H! It’s been a year since I started living alone. These past few months I encountered A LOT of small cockroaches. I’m living in SMDC condo btw.

I just want to know some of your tips in eliminating those cockroaches. I tried using Baygon spray and trap medicine, professional pesticide services and covering holes in my door but still having the same problem.

Ano ang dapat mauna, deep cleaning or pest control?

Unang araw ko pa lang, super dami nang maliliit na ipis. Contacted the landlord na and he advised me na magpa-sched para sa free monthly pest control ng condo. While waiting for my schedule, naglagay ako ng mga black cap roach bait sa unit. Ever since I did this, ang dami biglang roach poop (hanggang mattress huhu). I don't want to deal with that + takot ako na magkabulagaan kami ng ipis while I'm cleaning tall cabinets, kaya I want to avail a deep cleaning service. Di lang ako sure if better ba na mauna yung linis kaysa sa pest control.

Dapat ba mauna ang deep cleaning or pest control? Any advice/help din regarding my situation would be appreciated

10 months into solo-living, here are the minor updates of my apartment!!!

Malayo pa, pero malayo parin talaga haahahaha. First 3 photos eh hitsura ng unit ko when I first moved in. Gave it a little update in a span of 10 months. Sofa nalang talaga kulang, hirap maghanap ng maayos na 2nd hand!!!

If you are ever having second thoughts on buying things kasi nagre-rent lang kayo, this is your sign to buy those stuff!!! Design your place the way you want to live in it.

Dedma sa nagsasabing “nagrerent ka lang naman, mapapagod ka nyan pag naglipat ka sa dami ng gamit mo”. I know na for some people it’s coming from a place of concern, pero karamihan din don nangingialam lang. so if kaya mo na, push mo nayan!!!

Step-mom sent me these!!! She is the sweetest!!!!!!!

I posted something earlier about a family gathering she initiated that my father invited me to. Alam nyang I cannot deal with all the ‘family gathering things’ emotionally so she sent me this instead.

She’s always been a silent supporter kahit nung andun palang ako sa puder nila ng tatay ko. Pinagsasabihan nyang rin tatay ko minsan if out of line na yung sermon sakin.

Okay may uulamin na ako for the next 2-3 days hahahaha. Let’s eat!!!

Induxtion Cooker Alternative for incoming very bad weather.

Hi.

So si Bavi iniinvite ang sarili niya sa PH so need maghanda.

Naka induction cooker ako. Since gusto ko lang ng back up if mawalan ng kuryente.

Ano mas ok?

Butane or LPG (ung super kalan lang).

Back up lang talaga, mas prefer ko na ung induction (medyo marunong na ko haha)

Hindi gaano kalakihan ang kusina, kaya medyo hesistant ako sa super kalan, mataas kasi yon. Ung full tank LPG naman, inefficient kung back up lang.

Sa butane daw mahal, pero back up lang naman.

Thoughts?

Renting condo for 1 month. What are the things that I should know?

Hello, I am planning to test the waters muna by renting a condo for atleast a month. Checked kung magkano sa airbnb and asa 50k to 60k.

So I posted sa mga group with a budget of 20k to 30k and meron naman mga nag alok within the budget :)

Here are the few things na gusto ko sana malaman beforehand. Any tips and advice ay welcome rin!

  1. Ako po ba magbabayad ng utility bills for the whole month of stay or kasama na sa payment kay host (20k-30k)?

  2. Need din po ba like advance and deposit?

  3. How much po kaya magagastos for foods and other things?

Thank you! :)

Ice maker machine o mini ref? Suggestion needed. Thanks!

Hello mga solo leveling person

Ma ssuggest niyo po ba na bumili ng ice maker machine or mag ref nalang.

Bilang isang 30hen na mahilig sa kape at iba ibang drinks, gusto ko sana may palagiang yelo sa bahay.

Nasasayangan po kase ako if mag ref ako kase 1 minute away lang saken ang palengke.

spilled boiling water all over my electric stove 😭

hi! so i was boiling an egg and completely forgot about it 😭 when i came back, the water had already spilled out of the pan because it was way too shallow (yes i only used it because i was too lazy to wash another pan)

the water didn’t just spill on the stovetop either, it went everywhere and even dripped down to the bottom po 😭 i turned it off right away and this pic is me trying to dry it now.

aside from letting it dry, is there anything else i should do? i’m kinda scared to turn it back on tomorrow in case water got inside and causes a short or something. i live alone in a condo so i’m being extra paranoid 😭🙏🏻 any advice would be appreciated.

apartment or condo: which is better and what would you choose?

i’ve lived in both my whole college life, but mostly nakacondo talaga ako. for context, i’m living in ubelt, españa area and my contract is ending next month. i’m looking for places and i want sana na magcondo ulit but there are cheap apartments na decent tignan around here.

rent around this area is actually pretty high 😭 but sometimes, there are apartments na very nice pero kasing price na ng condo.

for me, ang ayoko sa mga condo ay mahigpit sila masiyado sa security (for obv reasons) eh i like inviting friends over. sa apartments naman, usually walang mapagiiwanan ng parcels and whatnot. hindi rin ako nakakapagpadeliver ng water sa unit ko mismo kasi walang nagaakyat.

mahilig rin ako magluto, so iniisip ko rin alin yung mas less yung restriction sa mga gagamitin ko.

isa pang consideration ko is yung gym, siyempre walang amenities and gym sa apartment, pero since it’s cheaper, i could probably just use the money i’ll save para sa gym subscription. but then again pag nasa condo, andon na lahat.

for everyone who’s living in an apartment or condo, what would you say is the pros and cons of living in one? please help me decide!
