The Library Heiress
More than two decades ago, I was a child growing up in a world with no internet, no fun mobile games, and no video calls.

Children’s Swimming Lessons with Coach Chito Rivera
One of my “frustrations” in life is not being a good swimmer. 🏊♀️ Well, if we will stick to the basic definition of “swim” which is to propel one’s body through water, then I can say that I can swim. However, I never learned the proper way of swimming — the correct breathing, arm movements…

Fair and flawless skin. Long legs. Sexy body. Chiseled cheekbones. Let’s be honest. In the Philippines, we were made to think that beauty is confined to these few physical characteristics.
