Mango (my teammate) couldn’t stop talking about this game at work. She had to leave early today so she couldn’t join our get together after work. During work she’d always say “Aww!!

I paid Php200 for an affidavit of loss, filled up an application form (the lady was nice to me) and then waited to have my photo and...

I’ve been having this really bad sore throat for some days now and I badly want it to go away. So I asked my friend Google how to cure sore throat.

Can’t wait to try this out.

Today was one tiring day for me and my co-interns. I received a txt yesterday asking us to bring an extra shirt and a towel, to put on sunblock, to wear casual clothes (no jewelry) and rubber shoes.
