The education sector needs the best and brightest to lead the way.

Today’s learners face considerable challenges; their learning journey was set back several years by the global pandemic that halted face-to-face classes from March 2020 (the first implementation of community quarantines) to November 2022 (when the Department of Education, or DepEd, ordered a full return to school-based learning). According to UNICEF, Filipino learners missed more learning opportunities compared to their global counterparts, as the Philippines was among the last countries to reopen in-person classes—effectively putting Filipino learners at a significant disadvantage.

Top Christmas Gift Ideas for Adults in 2024: Unique and Thoughtful Choices

Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links

 Okay, I decided to make a blog post about gift ideas for adults ages 30 and above - depends on the person actually if they want the item or not regardless of age. I kept seeing some good products on my Facebook feed and then they suddenly disappeared, so I decided just to place them here once I saw them. I also have to warn you that there are no gadgets found in this post. 

This list can still be updated so be sure to come back and check out for some new stuff. 

1. Ergonomics Lying Down Pillow 
   
   

• Memory foam
• Breathable Head Rest Support Pillow for Body or Face 
• Rest Pillow for salons and spa
• Price: Php 509

I thought this was a great gift idea for adults or anyone who likes to sleep on their stomach—well, I do this because it feels better on my back. But I think it's intended more for massages and simply for relaxation, so it's a great gift regardless of how you use it. 

2. Hisiya Face Down Pillow 

• This pillow with cotton filling to ensure a soft and comfortable. 
• The pillow provides neck support, fitting perfectly with the curvature of the human cervical spine and facial contours for comfort. 
• It's suitable for all seasons, warm in winter and cool in summer
• Can support side sleeping or back sleeping positions. It can also be used to elevate the neck, legs, or cervical spine
• Great for drivers, teachers, students, and office workers, suitable for home, office, and travel
• Price: Php 1,177

I believe this is a better version of the first pillow posted in terms of size. It has longer pillow support up to the chest, so it's more ideal for massages. 

 3. Crystal Bracelets

If you know someone who loves bracelets or someone who believes that certain crystals can give you good luck and good chi, then this Crystal Bracelet is a great gift idea. You can also customize the type of crystals and the type of bead from dancing lion, toad, dragon, and more! 

4. Capresso on the Go

• The Capresso On-The-Go Personal Coffee Maker is the perfect solution for brewing your favorite ground coffee or coffee pods quickly and conveniently. 
• With its sleek, compact design and sturdy construction, this coffee maker delivers a perfectly brewed cup in less than four minutes. 
• Paired with a stainless steel thermal travel mug, it’s designed for hassle-free, on-the-go enjoyment!
• Price: $39.99

Sorry, but this is all I got for now. It's a short list, but I'll add some more soon. If you want your product to be added here, simply send me an email and let's talk about it.

We Plan to Buy a House: Thoughts and Reflection

 I have to admit, even in my 40s, we still don’t own our own home. The simple truth? We couldn’t afford it, especially nowadays when inflation has really hit everyone. But recently, we realized that the time has come to make it happen.

 So, I’ve been researching homes in both nearby areas and provinces that fit our budget. To my surprise, I discovered something exciting—many modern homes are now solar-ready. It’s reassuring to see real estate developers addressing one of the biggest concerns for homeowners: the rising cost of electricity.

Vacant Lot

 This feature has sparked a sense of hope and possibility, knowing that we can find a home that not only fits our budget but also helps us sustainably manage future expenses.

  At this point, I’m still unsure about the kind of home we want. There are beautiful houses near the mountains, but they aren’t solar-ready. Then there are homes in cooler climates, but they’re far from essential amenities like grocery stores and schools. The number of factors to consider is both frustrating and overwhelming.

 Will the kids be all right? 

 Another big concern is whether my kids, who grew up in the city, would adjust to life in a more rural setting. Provincial homes are undeniably more affordable, but the lifestyle shift is something we really have to think about.

 Balancing location, convenience, sustainability, and family needs is proving to be more challenging than I expected. But I’m hopeful that with some time and patience, we’ll find a place that feels just right for us.
