Pero laman ng binggo-han bago pa malamnan ang tiyan, Bida na ng tsismisan bago sariling bahay’y malinisan, Maagap, sa pilaha’y masikap, mapa-DSWD o simbahan, Walang grasyang pinalalampas- umaraw man o umulan.…

  • Surprise! Surprise!

    ·

    More than the value, I was amazed how a friend can be so surprising with her pick. Never have I owned a decent watch since I was six. Thank you so much, Ate Alma. I love you! Pardon the excessive gushing. Just think I’m a kid who’s still learning GMRC (good manners and right conduct),…
