Ready For The Second Wave!

Since the second wave of the virus is at hand and I wanted to be prepared, I decided to buy two very interesting-looking bottles of disinfectants at the convenience store today.

In March, some liquor companies that produce beverages like rum and brandy said that they will start to produce disinfectants to help address insufficient supply (at that time).


Looking closely, you can make out the name distilleria Limtuaco engraved in the bottle. I'm pretty sure it used to be a state-owned enterprise during the Spanish colonial era and perhaps later bought by a Chinese since the name Limtuaco sounds like Chinese.


During the latter years of the Spanish colonial era in the Philippines, the Chinese intermarried with the natives (to elevate their status in the islands) and later overthrew the Spanish regime.

How to Register to DITO Promos Thru Text

Image
I was scratching my head trying to figure out how to register to DITO promos without going through their app. I don't know why but apparently DITO's app needs internet connection to be accessed. How very counterintuitive! Imagine, I was about to register to a Smart Promo just to access their app and subscribe to a promo! Anyway, thank goodness I was able to find a way to subscribe to DITO promos without using their app. Here is how you can register to DITO promos thru text: 1. Text HELP or 0000 to 185. This is free of charge. 2. You will receive a reply with the menu. Choose 'Buy Promo'. 3. Choose your desired promo and confirm your purchase. That's it! Now you just have to wait for a text confirmation or try to check if you can now access the internet. Hope this helps you out!
