Nice! I have yet to do so. Halfway through the 15 books of the Wheel of Time book series.
I just read book 1 of The Wheel of Time. My mood hasn’t swung to read the next book yet. Is reading by audiobook better?
In reply to https://www.threads.com/@cazedmunds/post/DWzxy1GAQI4 🧭 https://www.frederickcalica.com/?p=3374301My PE instructor in school once said, "I have two daughters. Both are girls." "Bring me a red pen of any colour."
The instructor is thinking in Tagalog and translate it to English upon speaking. When we translate it back to Tagalog:
“May dalawa akong anak. Parehong babae.”
The mistranslation occurred in “anak” to “daughter”. Tagalog does not have gendered terms for offspring. That is why the second sentence in Tagalog clarifies the gender but totally redundant in English.

fredcSo, there’s this friend suggestion on Facebook. Versions of Me have different reactions. The council of me decided to defer action on a later time. (https://www.frederickcalica.com/2020/12/10/so-theres-this-friend-suggestion-on-facebook-versions-of-me-have-different-reactions-the-council-of-me-decided-to-defer-action-on-a-later-time/)
This post popped up from Facebook memories. It is probably time to take action, but it is now moot. It is either that the Facebook profile was deleted, or I was pre-emptively blocked.

Goes to Philippine Social Security System - SSS to get replacement. Only to be told wala na UMID. MySSS na daw and I can get one by registering anew to the website. Only to be told na need ng government ID to get a MySSS ID. So... paano?
In the meantime, download the eGovPH app and create digital IDs. The digital national ID and Philhealth ID is available there. And lets’s see if those are acceptable when you apply for the physical cards.

I haven’t been on TikTok. Maybe it’s just me being a hipster. However, I am watching short-form videos from time to time on YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.

So tempted to go old school because the prices here are worse (CAD compared to PHP). I retained my Netflix and Prime PH accounts. 🏴☠️
