Covid-19 Chronicles: December activities with the kids

 2021 December

21 December 2021

Our milestone for December is applying for our Philsys National ID. :) Yay!

Having a National ID is beneficial for identification purposes in the Philippines and, best of all, it's free. Other ID's that you can apply for, but may incur fees, include passports (P950) and a postal ID (P500). 

Also, usually any business transactions require 2 valid IDs, but maybe not anymore; still, it's better to have at least two, just in case.

COVID-19 Chronicles: Kids' Online Classes Begin Again

 2021 August and September

It's weird but it's the start of the classes again. Weird because we're used to classes starting in June, but because of the pandemic, the kids started their online classes in August (Dana) and September (Dylan). 

By now, we've had one year of this "new" mode of teaching and the kids have grown accustomed to it.  

For these two, they actually prefer it! :)

COVID-19 Chronicles: My 2nd Dose Vaccination Day

03 August 2021

August 2nd was supposed to be the day I am vaccinated with my 2nd Dose of Sinovac. But when I got to the Health Center, I was told that all vaccinations scheduled on that day were postponed. I had to come back the next day.  Weird. 

They did mention that postponing it for a day isn't a big deal. 

Since there was nothing else to do, I just came back the next day.
