Loved Promil iShine Talent Camp 7 2019 | Why We’ll Enroll Again Next Year
To be honest this will be more of a memoir than a review. Macho kid recently turned 9 and a few more years and he’ll transition to puberty. It makes me anxious as a mom if I’m doing my best to point him in the right direction. In the direction where he’ll grow as a good, responsible adult, while still happy with his choices in life. Masyado ata malalim? In other words, I want his childhood spent on both values, education, and productivity. All while still having fun that a kid deserves. This where Promil 4 iShine Talent Camp 7 comes in to play. You can read more about it on my…

Contact Dermatitis and My Kojic Acid Whitening Soap Trauma
Now while I already stopped trying to lighten my skin and embrace my natural color. I used kojic acid soaps occasionally because they work well in exfoliating dead skin cells. Revealing smoother and more lustrous skin. One time however, I used a Thailand-made soap (sorry I can’t name it to protect the brand but it’s shaped like a starfish) one day and then this happened. OUCH!!!!!!! Just continue reading until the end for my full story. What is Contact Dermatitis? Contact dermatitis is a red, itchy rash caused by direct contact with a substance or an allergic reaction to it. The rash isn’t contagious or life-threatening, but it can be very uncomfortable.…

Hello World! Happy Mother’s Day! Hello Macho Mom!
I have to reward myself a gift of writing a personal musing on the very first post on my new website The Macho Mom. It has been long over-due and I’ve been thinking about it A LOT! If not for the google penalization of my beloved kikaysikat.com, I wouldn’t felt so desperate enough to create another domain because I feel like an octopus who’s lost its tentacle and it needs to regrow another one.

A good friend told me that when we shared each other’s sentiments on travel. Each place we visit is like a dream, and going back home is waking up. So without further ado, let me share with you the bits and pieces that my mind can fragment…
