MARKET TOUR IN BANTAYAN ISLAND : WHERE TO BUY PASALUBONG, BUWAD, TAGUANGKAN, LABTINGAW ETC?

Just recently, I went home to Bantayan Island and witnessed the observance of the new normal travel protocols. I included in the vlog the fares and the guidelines for tourists and locals alike and everything you need to know for the trip. You may find in the video that it is somehow easy to travel to Bantayan but please remember that the virus may be lurking nearby. Always think of your safety and of the safety of others.

HOW TO EDIT PHOTOS IN LIGHTROOM MOBILE AND A GLIMPSE OF SURPRISE

 

In my previous B/VLOG, I mentioned that I bought a new phone, Samsung Galaxy A51, which I used in taking photos. I posted those unfiltered photos in that vlog so that they could be seen firsthand how they look straight from the camera. To add a little spice to my photos, I’m going to share to you now how I edit those photos. Well, I love editing my pics not just to enhance them visually, but also because I find this activity relaxing. So here’s my video on how I edit my photos.

MY 2020, ONE CRAZY “KOMBUCHA” RIDE

 

When 2020 came, the first month had always been the busy month for me. I didn’t even celebrate the New Year with my family because year-end reports which I had to accomplish would be flooding at this point in time. As always, these would be accompanied by anxiety and stress which would heighten up as the deadline for submission got nearer and nearer. Added to this, my fears soared to the highest level when Taal Volcano erupted and that was also the time when my colleagues and I had an official trip to Manila. We were stranded at the airport for almost 12 hours. When I was in Manila, my stomach hurt so badly that I vomited  almost 10 times. I  could barely walk because of the tremendous pain I felt in my stomach.

NEW NORMAL DINING: LET’S EAT SAMGYUPSAL IN DAEGA UNLIMITED KOREAN RESTAURANT

The least that I can do to save humanity is to stay at home in this COVID 19 pandemic. And the least that I can do to help the nation’s economy is to go outside and let my money gradually disappear from my pocket, haha! Just kidding… Seriously though, since one is now allowed to go out if he can present his passes(quarantine pass, travel pass, etc) and observe safety protocols like wearing face masks and face shields, and disinfecting with alcohol or sanitizer, then I could go.

LIFE RECENTLY, HOW LECHON BRIGHTENED UP MY LIFE (YES, LECHON😂)

 

 

Hello, it’s me, the one who chases potatoes, CHASING POTATOES, haha! I guess I have to reintroduce myself because I was gone for more than six months. I mean I’ve been out of this blogosphere world because of so many tragic happenings around the globe since the beginning of the year 2020. Added to this sad turn of events was my being hospitalized for an operation in the first month of this year, which I will tackle soon on the blog (maybe or maybe not, haha). This pandemic that has disturbed the whole world has paralyzed my creativity, putting contents into a halt. Fear and anxiety dominate my being; thoughts and ideas float in the empty spaces in my mind. But I’m still thankful to God for sparing my loved ones and me from this horrible virus. Please COVID-19, be gone. (sigh!)

HOW I EDIT MY PHOTOS FOR THE GRAM

 

Sometimes I want to feel fancy, just like most girls. If I set aside my lazy ass and I am in the mood, I like to put make-up on my face, wear cute outfits and take photos of myself. I like to use my time as well by editing those snaps. I think it’s not about being vain but because I want my photos to reflect my creativity and artistry.

Sometimes raw photos are boring and problematic but added with filters and enhancements they channel different emotions and tones.Right? However, I don’t overdo my photos. I want them to look natural, if possible. So, here in my blog I’m showing you how I edit my photos to make them appear as natural as possible.
