People closest to me know I grew up loving anything floral — from a bouquet of flowers, dresses, bags, accessories, etc. After laying my eyes on the new MBaldemor x beabi Floral Symphony Collection, I knew I had every reason to score myself a piece from this line.

The Lifestyle Wanderer's review of the Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 phone

UNBOXING

It's my first time laying my hands on a notch-less phone. While this new Huawei mid-ranger sports a thin bezel in front, it almost appears to be bezel-less because of the undisturbed FHD full-screen IPS display. This means no more front button and selfie camera in front! 󠅓💯

Got nothing to do this Saturday? Join the Sounds Good coastal cleanup event happening on November 9, 2019, at the Las Piñas-Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area (LPPCHEA). This 100% Sustainable Event is made possible by the House of Marley, Power Mac Center, and CORA Philippines (Communities Organized for Resource Allocation).


The Las Piñas-Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area (LPPCHEA) is a nature reserve situated south of Manila Bay.

Established in 2007 thru Presidential Proclamation No. 1412 as amended, LPPCHEA is the first critical habitat to be declared in the country. LPPCHEA consists of two (2) islands—Freedom Island and Long Island— with mangroves, ponds and lagoons, mudflats, salt marshes, and mixed beach forest all over.

LPPCHEA was recognized as a wetland of international importance by the Ramsar Convention because of the critical role it plays in the survival of threatened, restricted-range and congregatory bird species. It is the 6th Ramsar Site in the country to date.

My penchant for labeling started back when I was in college. I remember buying an embossing label maker at a bazaar plus a few tapes so I can scrapbook some good memories. Too bad it easily gave up on me after a month or two, leaving me some tapes that became useless to me eventually. Just when I thought my labeling dreams can no longer happen, I was introduced to a much better, easier-to-use labeler, the Brother P-Touch Cube.

AESTHETIC

The Brother P-Touch Cube and the Design&Print App

The Brother P-Touch Cube's simple and compact design is already a win for me. Compared to other labelers in the market, this label maker doesn't take too much space in the desk. Basically, all labeling functions are housed in its dedicated app that's available in both iOS and Android devices for free.

The Brother P-Touch Cube is powered by six AAA batteries

Both the front and back casing are detachable to house the tape and six AAA batteries needed to run the machine. I'm also living for the small window in the other casing where it allows the user to see the specifications of the tape placed inside the label maker.

Because we can't have everything in life, the Brother P-Touch Cube still comes with a manual cutter. Fret not, because cut marks are present in every print to guide the user where one should cut exactly.

Fast forward to mid-2019, I'm a millennial working in the metro without a single credit card. I've made several big purchases in the past for my blog, but I had to use my dad's credit card to be able to score them. And yes, I've tried applying for one but I got declined, unfortunately.
