McDonald's treats riders by giving them time to spend with their family

I’ve always had a soft spot for all delivery riders. Lalo na when the rider arrives and I find out na naka-bisikleta. That’s parang double the effort pa. 

 

So I always make sure to give them tips or juices/drinks, chocolates , biscuits or anything na makakain nila. Lalo na ngayong rainy season and I see them na nagsisiksikan para di maulanan. As a mother myself, ramdam ko yung pagod ng trabaho nila. 

 

Lalo na at pandemic pa they need to earn while keeping themselves healthy.

So, eto na nga napanood ko ‘yung McDo video, bigla na lang tumulo luha ko without realizing it. Tama ako sa naisip ko na paano yung mga pamilya nila. 

 

Nagkikita pa kaya sila or nakakapag usap after a day’s work. And unlike those na regular ang jobs they don’t have a fixed day off and most of them work 7 days a week pa. 

Sila yung mga unsung heroes natin na kahit ano mangyari dadating at dadating para lang ma deliver yung mga inorder natin. Yung craving natin na kahit gabi na pwede pa din umorder, at kapag Nakita na natin yung notification na “Your Order is here” iba na yung ngiti natin.

 

So sana, every time na oorder tayo isipin din natin na may pamilya sila na iniintindi at namimiss kaya don’t treat them differently. 

 

Thank you McDonalds for this video, for treating our dear riders and giving them time to spend a day with their family. Makikita mo yung totoong saya nila—walang katumbas—instant good vibes.

 

Para tuloy gusto ko din magorder sa McDelivery para masurprise din ang family ko. 

 Chicken McDo? My favorite McSpaghetti? Cheeseburger? Lahat na kaya weekend naman!

 

Check out the super heartwarming, feel-good video HERE and order via McDelivery to make your family time all the more precious and to show your support for your riders!

mWell partners with the country’s top Zumba masters to launch the mWellness Score

 

Continuously breaking new grounds in digital healthcare, Metro Pacific Investments Corporation’s (MPIC) mWell, the Philippines’ first fully integrated health app, is partnering with the country’s top Zumba masters to launch the mWellness Score via the mWell Fitfest Tour Zumba challenge that kicked off in Cebu.

 

mWellness Score is a personal in-app health tracker which measures the amounts of exercise, light activity, sedentary behavior and sleep everyday using data-driven methods. 

 

The mWell Fitfest Tour is led by celebrity dance diva, choreographer, and top Zumba instructor                   Ms. Regine Tolentino. Through it, Zumba communities around the country will get the first crack at mWellness Score via the nationwide Zumba challenge that kicked off in Cebu last Oct. 7 where hundreds of participants danced the weekend away in the Dance Workout 3.0 Marathon held at the Insular Square in Mandaue City. 

 

The workout series continues in Mandaue, Bohol, Pampanga, Marikina, Las Pinas and Quezon City.  Zumba enthusiasts may join the event for free, dance their way to a healthier lifestyle and get the chance to bring home gift vouchers, shirts, and smartwatches. All they have to do is download the mWell app, start using the mWellness Score feature and flex their scores on their social media pages.  

 

“I’m really excited to partner with mWell for this event. You won’t feel like it’s a dreaded workout. Just dress up, feel beautiful and empowered as you move to the music. You’ll burn a ton of calories too! It will be a blast. By monitoring my mWellness Score as I teach Zumba, I can easily stay fit and healthy, lower the risk of getting sick and be more productive,” she adds. 

 

In support of the fitness campaign, MPIC’s Finance, Risk and Sustainability Officer and wellness enthusiast Ms. Chaye Cabal-Revilla says, “Zumba is a happy pill.  It’s a fun and easy way to be healthy and beat stress at work. In our spare time, we even have Zumba breaks in the office. And with the mWellness Score, you can track your performance versus other mWell app users. This feature also helps monitor step count, physical activity, and sleep.”

 

 

Through the mWellness Score, mWell mobile app users can easily access a handy guide to developing a healthy lifestyle for long-term health, without having to spend on extra gadgets or wearables. 

Designed for those who lead a busy life, the mWellness Score enables app users to be in control of their health, reach their fitness goals and make informed lifestyle choices to prevent chronic diseases. No need for a drastic lifestyle change. All it takes are a few tweaks to make space for physical activity and adequate sleep regularly. 

To make the path to fitness more exciting, mWell users can set personalized goals, or interact with others on the app, making wellness organically part of their lifestyle. They can get their daily mWellness Score for free by simply clicking on the Wellness icon on the app.

This latest innovation from mWell comes on the heels of National mWellness Day, the biggest nationwide digital medical mission. The fastest-growing health app which provides doctor consultations and serves as a wellness guide, has earlier won Best Initiative in Technological Innovation in The Asset ESG Corporate Awards--one of the world’s leading and longest-running honors in the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) space.

 

Aside from the mWellness Score, mWell has also made available customized fitness and nutrition programs developed by Olympians and exercise physiologists as well as calorie-controlled recipes created by dietitians and nutritionists. 

 

Download the mWell PH app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Follow mWell on Facebook and mwellph on Instagram for more updates.

Don’t let the stress from choosing the best gift and the intensity of the holiday rush rain on your parade with these early Christmas shopping tips from vivo. 

Where and when to go “Ho ho ho” 

Shopping online is definitely on top of the list when it comes to avoiding the hassle of long queues at cashiers, the trouble of looking for parking spaces, and a general huge number of crowds. Browse for your gifts online with ease using the vivo Y02s’ 6.51-inch Fullview^TM Display with 1600*720 HD+ resolution. With this feature, users can easily appreciate the products on the screen. Not to mention that the vivo Y02s runs with a Mediatek Helio P35 so you can switch from one app to another with ease to compare the gifts you’ll purchase.   

 

However, if you still prefer visiting physical stores, it is recommended that you do it as early as October and on weekdays so you have enough time to tick all the items on your Christmas list.  Have your list ready in an easy to carry, pocket-friendly device like the vivo Y02s which has an incredible 8.19mm thickness and weight of only 182g. The vivo Y02s’ 2.5D curvature and right-angled frame also provides a perfect grip which can undoubtedly provide a seamless and lightweight experience, leaving you comfortably hopping from one shop to the next. 

 

Go for the ultimate Christmas gift

Equipped with a great rear camera which also supports real-time preview, the vivo Y02s allows you to capture holiday cheers and Christmas spirit in vivid detail. But the Christmas photo album won’t be complete without you in the pictures, so why not flip the phone cam and take a selfie shot? With vivo Y02s front camera’s soft band light, you won’t need to put some make up or retouch as it promises a selfie-ready portrait, even when shot in a low-light setting.

 

Undeniably stylish even without a gift wrap

If you still find it hard to choose the ideal gift for your Monito or Monita, go for a purchase that they’ll surely like. The vivo Y02s boasts a slim and stylish body which will surely fit your loved one’s personality, fashion sense, and interests however diverse they might be. Its attractive and elegant colorways, the Flourite Black and the Vibrant Blue which depicts the pattern of dancing waves and rejuvenates you with passion and vitality, can match each of your loved one’s OOTDs and style perfectly.

 

Plan ahead for additional gimmicks 

Christmas celebration is a time for appreciation and spending precious time with our social circles.

The Shure SE846 Sound Isolating  Earphones have long set the standard for high-performance audio in the professional music industry and among audiophiles. Ten years after the launch of the highly regarded original, Shure debuts the second generation of the celebrated earphones, featuring two new colors, a new selectable sound signature, an expanded sleeve assortment, and updated packaging.

 

The earphones contain the same universal sound isolating design and four precision-engineered drivers of the previous generation, tailored to blend precisely with each other and deliver extended high-end clarity. The groundbreaking low-pass filter design delivers the performance of a true subwoofer without sacrificing a solitary detail. 

 

The SE846 Gen 2’s new extended sound signature directly addresses customer requests, improving high-frequency extension, with a more targeted contour in the frequency response (4kHz - 12kHz) that increases imaging clarity and adds a desirable “airy” quality to the audio. The Extended filter will ship as the default configuration of the SE846 Gen 2 along with Balanced, Warm, and Right filter options, enabling powerful sound signature personalization. 

 

The SE846 remains equipped with a detachable cable that enables listeners to convert to wireless with Shure True Wireless Adapters or integrate other wired accessory options.

 

An expanded assortment of sleeve options, including Comply foam, provides a perfect fit. Meanwhile, the ability to customize your audio experience from a selection of unique sound signatures enables an extra level of personalization. 

 

“The unparalleled audio of the SE846 is based on decades of dedication. It’s why musicians and audiophiles trust Shure technology year after year,” said Sean Sullivan, Associate Director of Wired Products at Shure. “This new model provides even the most discerning listeners with nuanced control of their audio experience with the addition of the new, fourth sound signature. Paired with four high-def drivers and Shure sound isolating technology, these earphones offer an advanced level of listening.”

 

The SE846 Gen 2 Sound Isolating Earphones come in three colors (clear, jade, and graphite) and are available at all Audiophile stores, the Shure flagship store in Ayala Malls Bay Area, and official Shure stores in Lazada, Shopee and Zamora.

When it comes to your beauty goals, go all in and trust Kojie.san

Most of us have taken so much time and care when it comes to our faces to keep it healthy, light, and even – including subscribing to multi-step skincare routines day and night. But why stop with just your face when you can have it all? It’s time to stop limiting yourself and your skin goals. You should also give the same level of attention and apply the same meticulous care to the rest of the body, especially on areas prone to darkening. 

 

Sometimes having dark areas in your body can make you more conscious about your overall appearance, limiting your fashion choices or even your movements. When it comes to your beauty goals, go all in and trust Kojie.san to help you achieve full body light, from head to toe. With light and even skin, you can feel confident that you’re always at your best in any angle.  

 

Begin your journey with the Kojie.san Skin Lightening Classic Soap that can be used on your face and body. As the expert in kojic acid formulation, this cult favorite contains high-grade kojic acid that’s made more potent with the innovative Zero Pigment Lighttechnology, a powerful mode of action that zeroes in on dark spots, age spots, scars, melasma, and hyperpigmentation to effectively lighten and even out skin tone in all areas. 

 

With kojic acid as its main active ingredient, Kojie.san’s Classic Soap helps inhibit the overproduction of melanin caused by factors like over exposure to sun, friction, and hormonal changes that make certain areas or spots darker than the rest. This is the reason why elbows, knees, neck, underarms, and even inner thighs tend to be darker than the other parts of the body. Kojie.san can help fade these dark areas where there’s an unusual concentration of melanin (plus all those tan lines we get after a beach trip or a bike ride!), and give you the full body light you've always wanted.  

 

You can also opt for something that combines the moisturizing power of Hydromoist Formulation with Zero Pigment Light Technology. Kojie.san Skin Lightening Soap with Hydromoist helps lighten skin, and keeps it moisturized and well hydrated for up to 24 hours. Or try Kojie.san Skin Lightening Hydromoist Body Wash that also lightens, and keeps skin soft, smooth, and hydrated for that nourished skin all over. 

 

Let’s take our daily skincare routine to the next level by going beyond our usual facial care regimen. It’s time to hit all our skin goals by taking the steps to even out our entire complexion, especially those stubborn parts that are prone to darkening. With Kojie.san that has long been effective in skin lightening, we can achieve the full body light and even skin we’ve always wanted and break our own limits. 

 

Get exciting updates and information at @Kojie.sanPH on Facebook and Instagram and www.kojiesan.com. Kojie.san is available at all leading supermarkets and drugstores nationwide, as well as Kojie.san’s official LazMall on Lazada and Beauty MNL.
