List of School Supplies for My Grade Schooler



I just finished enrolling my eldest son, Chico in a state university.

 
Mango and Peach are already in high school while Lemon was left in grade school. All three were on the same school. We planned to enroll them before this month ends.
So I am now busy listing school supplies for our students.

As advised by school registrar, high school basically needs 8 notebooks and ballpens!

So here are Lemon’s school supplies as a grade schooler:

notebooks
long brown envelope
red ballpen
manila paper
cartolina white
cartolina colored
expanded envelope w plastic envelope
pentel pen
set health kit
pencil case
pencils
crayon
sharpener
eraser
pad paper
ruler
glue
plastic notebook
plastic wrapper
scotch tape


Hope this would help mom’s like me.

Do you have a more complete list of school supplies? Please do suggest. Thank you.

Product Review:Mondes Professional Ionic Keratin Hair Treatment

Tryin’ to REVIVE my Damaged Rebonded Hair:  Mondes Professional Ionic Keratin Hair Treatment (Part 1)

I am one of those gal who had their hair rebonded and colored and ended up having dry and coarse hair stands. In my case I’ve been doing the rebonding process for almost for years. Just this last session when I noticed that
my hair became brittle and it looks like I have fried hair after each washing.

I let one month passed to see my hair condition will change but -  que horror! It even got worse! It’s a depressing moment for me.

Who else to blame, I am guilty of these hair crimes (perfect!):
1.     Wet hair whitin three days after the procedure.
2.     Tie hair or put it on the back of your ears.
3.     Use of any heating tools: blow drying, hair ironing.
4.     Mess with hair for at least six months –hair coloring, streaks, highlighting.
5.     Use hot water, it will rob it of its moisture.
6.     Do not use a wide toothed hair comb to separate the strands and remove any tangles with great care.  A wooden comb is preferable as plastic combs are known to create frizz due to static.
7.     Do not wash hair in alternate days or try co-washing hair using conditioner as a shampoo and just rinsing it away.
8.     Do not keep hair safe from environmental factors – harsh sun rays, cold winds and the rains. Use a hat or an umbrella.
9.     Do not apply a hair serum regularly to protect it better.
10.  Do not use a leave in conditioner to retain moisture and keeps dryness and frizz away.
11.  Do not use hair masks frequently or get hair spas done for moisture and nutrition.

I do not want to trim my medium length hair nor spend a lot to salon hair treatments. Instead I headed to my ever reliable pc to look for alternative hair treatments for my damaged rebonded hair. I’ve found out that keratin hair treatment rebuilds, restores and rejuvenates damaged hair.

Mother’s Day – My Mom Was Once A Chef

I can cook, but not well. I figure I have six years until my children discover what  their friend’s mothers make for dinner – Jane Pauley

When I come across this quote, I just couldn’t help but smile..

I was on my teenage years na when I realized that my mother doesn’t actually knows how to cook! For once I thought that instant noodles with eggs and sautéed chicken with ketchup were special on our dinner table! Haha!
the ever dependable-Rodeo cornedbeef!
Now I know why hotdogs (we love Purefoods Beefies!), bacons, hams and tosino were so staple at our fridge! And canned goods like corned beef ( you still remember RODEO?) and sardines (555 and Master Sardines) never run out of stock!
I love you, Nay –  best chef ever!

Vote wisely. Suriin ang mga kandidato na pagkakatiwalaan natin para sa ating mga anak. Husgahan natin ang mga kandidato di lang sa kasalukuyan nyang ipikakikita sa panahon ng pangangampanya. Let's have the initiative to research about their backgrounds and the past and present works for our beloved Santa Cruz.
