Self-doubt

Published by Kima Rodriguez

I recently made a trip to UPLB to submit some additional requirements. I’m still holding on to hope, praying, wishing, and firmly believing that I can gain entry into graduate school. Pursuing my Master’s Degree is something I’m extremely passionate about, even though there are individuals trying to bring me down because they don’t believe in my potential. That’s life, filled with its ups and downs. Success doesn’t come without encountering failures, discrimination, and criticism along the way. I’ve decided to use these negative sentiments, discrimination, and criticism as motivation to improve and ultimately succeed. I’ve grown weary of shedding tears and am determined to change my perspective on life. When your mind and heart are genuinely set on achieving your goals, you can overcome obstacles, even when there are naysayers trying to hinder your progress. I’ve learned to let their disbelief slide off me. I’m making a promise to myself that I will become a successful woman one day, not just through intelligence or bravado, but through hard work, perseverance, and unwavering faith in …

The Meeting Plate

Published by Kima Rodriguez

We celebrated Father’s Day at The Meeting Plate in Imus, Cavite. Originally, we had plans to dine at Kanin Club in Alabang, but due to heavy traffic between General Trias and Imus, we opted to find a place to eat in Imus since it was already noon. The restaurant had a simple ambiance, and it wasn’t particularly eye-catching from the outside. What caught my attention, though, was their “mini-boutique” inside, which offered a variety of items like clothes, makeup, makeup tools, shoes, soaps, and more. This was a nice touch, as I had some time to browse around while waiting for our orders. Now, let’s talk about the food. It was delightful! I found the spicy nachos, chicken wings, and fried chicken to be particularly scrumptious. As for the ribs, they were decent, although I’m not a huge fan of ribs in general. Overall, I’d rate the food a 4 out of 5. I’m eager to recommend this restaurant to my friends and anyone else looking for a good place to eat. On my next …

Brock’s Burger

Published by Kima Rodriguez

I had heard quite a few recommendations about the delicious burgers at Brock’s Burger, even from some of my friends. When I found out they had a newly built branch in Trece Martires City, Cavite, I decided to give it a try. The place and the staff at the restaurant were quite pleasant. However, when it came to the burger itself, I couldn’t say there was anything exceptionally special about it. Personally, I wasn’t a fan of their bread, but I did enjoy their patties and fries. Considering the price point, I thought it was a good value overall. I’m open to returning to sample some of their other burger offerings in the future. The cost for the meal typically ranged from P100 to P200, making it quite affordable.

I’m absolutely smitten with this Lippie Stix from Colourpop in the shade Brink. It has become a daily essential for me. Brink strikes the perfect balance between not being too pink or too pale. It has this incredible ability to instantly brighten up my complexion. It’s safe to say, I’m completely in love with it! 😄💄💋
