Hello readers, how are you? I really mean to ask you all about yourselves at the beginning of my posts because as a socially awkward person, I simultaneously feel like I don't talk but talk too much about myself. But it's especially important to connect in stressful and uncertain times. So I hope that you're …
Filipino Kids Books 3
Ahoy-hoy readers, have you eaten today? I feel like I just ate a bunch and could still go for some pudding. Anyway, here's my latest installment of Filipino kids books reviews. Watch my video because my mother interrupts! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYpFTZUuo7w Filipino Friends This book is a wealth of information. There's a main storyline but also a …
Filipino Kids Books 2
Hey hey readers, have you been working out? I can't believe I'm actually following up on a series. It's true that I technically have an unboxing tag, but I don't continuously subscribe to services, so it's not that consistent. I also made a What I'm Reading series to have a collection of notes from other …
New Series! Filipino Kids Books
Howdy folks, how are you? I'm sure that somewhere among my Internet channels and platforms I mentioned that I'm going to be an aunt! Truthfully, it's so weird that I get a title as if I had any input into the matter 😅 But since I am getting it, I'm going to utilize it! It takes …
Women, Race, & Class 1
Hey hey readers, what are you reading? I have to admit, I'm kind of tech snob. Not in a Apple superfan way, but that I was wary of e-readers, and I've no idea what I'd do with tablet or smart speaker. But Haymarket Books (which often offers great sales) was offering Remi Kanazi's Before the …
Fall/Winter Wish List
Hello readers, are you getting everything holiday-ready? I put our tree up, but I don't really feel festive. Maybe it's because it only just got cold here. It's really messing with me because I need to get a bunch of crap, but I don't feel that urgency! Another thing could be that my brother and his …
Where to Give for #GivingTuesday
Hello readers, are you finishing your leftovers? According to GivingTuesday.org, a team at the Belfer Center in New York began celebrating the day in 2012 to start a charitable mindset for the winter holiday season. Not only is the date the Tuesday after U.S. Thanksgiving, but it also follows the massively consumer-y "holidays" of Black …
July 2018 Picks
Hello followers, have you checked in with your friends? I know it's summer. Maybe it's the heat? But I just feel kind of in the dumps. Maybe I should've actually watched the World Cup? I feel like buying something, but you know me. I can never justify just buying something, and I'm really indecisive. But I …
Book Club? with Blackwater
Hello readers, how are your sinuses? Last year I bought myself Blackwater as a belated birthday present and have only recently gotten around to it. I love learning, but it takes me 100 years to read non-fiction. One reason is because I feel like I should record or memorize everything. That may be futile, but at least …
Spring Wishlist
Is it just me or is it easier to spend money when you don't have it? LOL. Or at least daydream about spending it. Then when I get money, I really got to prioritize what I actually want to spend it on... Now that I have a little birthday money, I have the chance to buy something fun, …
