Posted by Ria Hazel on 1:06 AM in COVID-19, COVID19, Enhanced Community Quarantine, Hand washing, Love in the time of Corona, Manila, Philippines, Positivity, TikTok, Videos,

With the enhanced community quarantine in effect, social platforms, like TikTok, provide a great avenue to stay connected with the rest of the world. Here are digital ways you can do to fight the new coronavirus:

Get Informed

Access to accurate and timely information is our first line of defense. TikTok created a special page within the platform for you to know the Things About About Coronavirus. These include advisories and preventive measures to protect yourself with the help of the World Health Organization. There’s also a special section called Mythbusters to debunk fallacies about the virus and fight misinformation.

Stay at Home and Play an App to win an iPhone 11!

Posted by Ria Hazel on 3:24 PM in App, Bongga Ka Day, Enhanced Community Quarantine, Mobile Phone, Philippines, Play, promo, Quarantine, win, Win an iPhone 11,

I never thought that staying inside the home is really tough. There are times that you feel so trapped and lonely. On this second week of the enhanced community quarantine, things feel somewhat better but you still have that urge to see your friends and loved ones. For millennials, Gen Z, and feelennials (feeling millennials LOL!), our gadgets are sources of entertainment, information, and connection to a bigger world. Eventually, we’ll get bored and run out of things to do. Here’s something you can try: Why don’t you download this app and play it until you win a brand new iPhone 11?

Say hello to Bongga Ka Day.

A Chance to Serve in the Time of COVID-19

Posted by Ria Hazel on 6:11 PM in #FightCOVID19, COVID-19, Donations, Enhanced Community Quarantine, Fighting, Philippines, Quarantine, Service, Service in time of COVID, What You Can Do,

Pandemics like the COVID-19 are unpredictable. It is a hit or miss and we may or not be ready for it. It's just so sad that once it does hit us, it brings out fear and panic. My commute last Monday was scary. Even if I was wearing a mask, I wasn't really able to practice social distancing because only the schools were suspended. I still have to go to work and with limited transportation, I had to wait for two hours just so I could get a ride. But aside from that, it brought fear because we have two senior citizens in our home.
