LG Helps Women Wear Their Best

As the whole world celebrates Women’s Month, we find ourselves looking back throughout history about the role women played and how it has evolved today. It’s an uphill battle, but year after year, the gender gap is slowly getting narrower. The goal of equality, freedom, and empowerment is within reach.

 

Technology plays a large role in breaking down stereotypes. New innovations and groundbreaking advances in technology give anyone the ability to do jobs and chores that were otherwise gendered. Housework, for example, has always been a role assigned to women by default. LG has invested in numerous products aimed at giving women the freedom to explore their lives, outside the regular household chores.

 

LG, one of the trailblazers in technology and innovation, remains steadfast in its goal of simplifying work to make life good. Through the simplicity and hassle-free nature of LG home appliances, everyone, especially women, are given more time and freedom to pursue and live the kind of life they want. LG continuously commits to creative innovative products to support women. 

 

In its Women’s Month campaign, LG focuses on how its clothing care solutions, consisting of washing machines and dryers, can bring out the best version of you. Instead of looking at laundry as a chore, LG makes doing the laundry complement your lifestyle while caring for your wash against wear and tear. With intuitive controls and precise settings, you can do the laundry with a click of a button and  live your best life.The LG Styler is key to looking sharp in every outfit, especially for the ladies with a passion for fashion. It refreshes and removes odors from fabrics, and utilizes LG’s TrueStreamTM technology to help reduce allergens and wrinkles in clothing. This steamy assistant also has a dehumidifying function that can freshen up her walk-in wardrobe, keeping her ready to dress for success anytime,  stepping out in style.

 

Speaking more about the initiative, LG Managing Director Seungjae Kim said “Women’s Month is all about empowerment and freedom. We celebrate women all over the world and we hope that our innovations have played a part in achieving their goals. With the help of today’s technologies, LG celebrates these amazing women with modern solutions to help boost their quality of life.”

Menstrual Cup ba ang sagot sa kahirapan?

Ready na ba tayo dito?
Kung hindi ka familiar dito at babae ka, pwes, alamin natin!

Eto ay MENSTRUAL Cup, device inserted into the vagina during menstruation. Pangolekta ng regla.

I tried this literally today on my 3rd day of my menstruation. Usually, Konti na ang regla ko kapag 3rd day.

Here’s my experience:
Inserting
•nasaktan ako, feeling ko Hindi kakasya. Bago ko pala sya nilagay, nilagay ko muna sya sa hot water ng 10mins. Ang weird. Nung nalagay ko na, nakatiklop pa sya, iniisip ko kung paano sya bubuka; Ayun, nag-pop na sya.

Walking
-Weird. Feeling mo may nakapasak lalo na at virgin ako with 3kids 😂✌🏻. Ang weird. Haha! Feeling ko may lalabas every lalakad ako. Ilang beses ko sinilip at kinapa kung okay lang sya, Lalo na kung okay lang ba ako?! Hahaha!

Sitting
•Sobrang weird. May nag-squish. Parang lalabas. Uncomfortable. Yung Iniisip mo sya everytime uupo ka.

Coughing
•Eto pinaka-matinding feeling. Haha! Parang bubulwak at aalis in instance na mauubo ka. Para kang manganganak.

Ang weird nito suotin. But, lahat yan sa umpisa lang. After an hour, I get used to it. Ang Hindi mo lang talaga maatim yung Pag-upo at Pag-tayo Galing upo. Mafefeel mo kasi sya. But, walking, jumping and running, normal lang sya. Yung feeling lang na meron talaga naka-salpak lang.

Para kanino ito?

1. Para sa mga sensitive ang skin sa mga sanitary pads
2. Para sa tinatamad mag-change pads ng madalas. Me! Haha!
3. Okay na okay din sa may malalakas na period.
4. Para sa nagtitipid.
5. Para na environmentalists nating mga Ate. Less waste. Happy World.
6. Mga active in sports.

Paano nga ba ako umihi ng may menstrual cup, medyo hassle lang ang part na ito. Kelangan mo talaga sya tanggalin gamit ang pinch finger nails mo. Medyo struggle ang Pag-hila, hinila ko sya hawak ang nakausling rubber sa Pinaka-cup, pa-side ang hugot kasi mahirap hilahin kung naka-gitna ang hugot.

Satisfying ang part nung nakita ko ang menstrual cup ko na may regla. Parang Nakakatuwang makita na ganito kadami ang nakuha at lumabas sayong dugo na dati ay hindi mo naman nasusukat sa sanitary pads mo.

Image from Google.

Hinugasan ko ang menstrual cup gamit ang tubig lamang at binalik ko ito nang nakatayo. Okay na ulit, pahinga na. Back to tulog na.

Sya nga pala kung tatanungin nyo ako kung may stain pa rin ba ang undies ko after long day, yes, may stain, pero tuldok lang. nakakatuwang wala talang tumagas na dugo, humiga, umupo, mag dekwatro o cross-legs. Yung isiping may period ka lang Hindi posible dapat gawin yan, pero yes, lahat yan nagawa ko. 😂😂

Ayan, kung gusto nyo itry, approve na approve ko to! Masaya naman sya! Sana Masaya din kayo para sa kanya. Haha! Makakabili kayo nito as low as P100 to over P5K. Kayo na ang bahala sa sarili nyo. Will write more about this thru my blog – mamafarrahph.WordPress.con

I am a Failure Mom

I am writing this as of the moment because this is what I feel right now. In this time of Pandemic crisis (Covid19/NCOV) sobrang nahihirapan akong hanapin ang motivation ko. Parang gusto ko nalang wala akong gawin dahil din siguro nakikita kong ganun din ang ginagawa nang ibang tao. I’m counting myself in, pero sa loob ko, dapat maging productive ako.

Dapat madami ako ginagawa for myself. Like isipin ko yung negosyo ko for the next step, i-home therapy ko manlang si Kuya Jansen at Kuya Johan, Turuan ko magbasa si Janel, maglinis manlang sa kwarto namin, gumising nang maaga at asikasuhin lahat nang lutuin. Sa dami nang dapat kong gawin at sa dami nang iniisip ko ilan lang dyan ang nata-tap o nagagawa ko kaya feeling ko I AM A FAILURE MOM.

Pero, Alam nyo ba kung bakit ako hindi sumusuko at nagpapatuloy kahit pakiramdam ko hindi ako mabuting INA para gampanan lahat nang TAMA ko dapat gawin? Yun ay dahil..

Alam ko sa sarili ko na, “KUNG HINDI AKO ANG GAGAWA PARA SA KANILA, SINO ANG AASAHAN KO?!”

Kelangan ko tanggapin ang sarili ko na hindi ako perpektong tao, WALANG PERPEKTONG TAO. I’m just pushing myself too hard para gawin lahat lahat nang tama. Natuto akong tanggapin sa sarili ko na “OKAY LANG” na hindi ako magaling sa lahat pero kaya kong pag-aralan basta wag ko lang pilitin at madaliin ang sarili ko.

Kaya kong matapos ang lahat at matutunan lahat basta gugustuhin ko. Kelangan lang natin paalalahanan ang mga sarili natin na wag sumuko. Palaging may Pag-Asa. We can always feel that we’re failing in each and every aspect of our life pero hindi tayo “QUITTER”, Hindi tayo madaling sumuko. Yan ang katangian mo na kaya mong ipagmalaki.

Kelangan natin bumalik sa rason natin kung bakit natin sinimulan, Ano ba goal mo? Ano bang rason mo? Ang magiging outcome kapag nagawa mo lahat nang Kelangan mo gawin? Kelangan mo questionin ang sarili mo. Bakit mo ginagawa ang bagay-bagay?

Sinulat ko ito dahil pakiramdam ko palagi akong mag-isa, walang makatulong sakin. Ang tanging Isipin mo at palagi mong gawin ay ang “PAGPILI SA SARILI MO!” Piliin mo ang sarili mo. Pakiramdaman mo kung Sino ang nasa tabi mo. Meron o walang katulong kelangan mo pa ring maging committed sa sarili mo. Kaya ngayong natapos ko nang ibuhos ang nararamdaman ko, balik na ulit ako sa dapat kong gawin at harapin sa buhay.

GOODLUCK SAYO! MABUHAY KA!

❤️ Mama Farrah

Simplify your Life and Spend Less

One of the best things with living in the Philippines is the relatively low cost of living. As compared to other countries, we get to enjoy a lot of necessities and even luxuries at a lower price. Sadly, however, electricity is not one of them. The Philippines currently has the 2nd highest electricity rate in the whole of Asia. Given this fact, it’s only natural to look for all opportunities one can have in saving and being energy and cost efficient.

Global leader and technology innovator LG Electronics has been at the forefront of designing with the consumer in mind. Nowadays, it isn’t enough for home appliances and electronics to be just state-of-the-art. It has to be at the same time, cleanly designed, simple, minimalist, multifunctional, and above everything, energy and cost efficient.  

LG’s advances in Inverter technology has always been about innovating towards one goal – less energy consumption, more savings for the end user. Through efficient design, consumers can live a lifestyle they’ve always dreamed of without having to worry about the electric bill every second. Each product has been designed in such a way that it goes above and beyond what’s expected.

The LG Smart Inverter Washing Machine, for example, is so energy efficient that it can use only 67wh (watt hours) of energy to do a cycle – less than what it takes to iron a shirt or 4 minutes of using a blow-dryer. For refrigerators, LG’s Inverter Linear Compressor keeps your food fresh longer by maintaining temperature fluctuation within ±0.5℃. This allows you to cook with fresh ingredients every day for your family, and minimizes spoilage. With air-conditioners, staying cool is made more efficient with the LG DUAL Inverter Compressor which reduces energy use up to 50％. Given our tropical climate and humidity, your family can enjoy a cool breeze whenever they want while using less electricity.

LG is designed to make life better. Whether it’s energy and cost efficiency, connectivity across multiple devices, or even artificial intelligence, every facet of LG’s design is conceptualized with efficiency and simplicity, giving you and your family more time and more savings.
