Air Optix Night and Day Aqua Contact Lenses [Review]

Image
It's been thirty days since I used my first pair. I never had issues using it. So, it's gonna be my go-to eyewear from now on. I was using eyeglasses in the past, but I lost like four or five. So, I gave contacts a try. I didn't know that Air Optix exists. I only discovered it when I dropped by IV (Ideal Vision). They said I can sleep in it. It piqued my interest, so I purchased two regular-priced boxes. -1.25 for my right eye and -1.50 for my left eye. Each box has 6 clear lenses soaked in a solution individually. And each lens can be worn up to 30 days/nights. Meaning, each box is good for 6 months. The box costs around 2,000 pesos. The solution is not included which I purchased for 300. So, in total, I spent around 5,000 pesos. They offer huge discount for a set, but I declined. I need to test it! I'm not wearing contacts for a week as prescribed by the doctor. I do not wear it during rest days. If needed, say it feels dry, I

My Citibank Cash Back Card Application Experience

Image
I submitted an application online. It was on December 31, 2019. As far as I remember, I sent them a scanned copy of my UMID. They emailed me confirming the receipt of my application. They also provided a link for checking its progress. According to them, my application will expire on February 5, 2020. I dunno what it means. Probably, the deadline? On January 3, 2020, I received this instruction via SMS: "URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED : We have received your Citi credit card application. In order for us to proceed, please text CITICARD YES to 29480. If you did not apply, text CITICARD NO to 29480. Standard text messaging rates apply." After a few days, multiple unknown numbers are calling me. I missed the calls and I've only spoken with one of their representatives on January 13, 2020. She called using ‭0288839700‬. Note: They called every day. The lady verified the information I've put in the form. Lastly, she told me that she will send me an

So, I just found that the card can now be used for online payments. To enable: 1. Log in to BPI Online, then go to Other Services under the main menu. 2. Tap on Card Control under Cards 3.   Tap on "Show Card Settings" under the Debit Mastercard. 4.   Use the slider across E-commerce access to activate. 5.   Proceed to the One-Time PIN verification to authorize the change. Voila! It's now activated. So far, I've tried it on Apple with no strings attached. To deactivate the feature, use the slider again and BPI will send an email confirmation. No One-Time PIN required! BPI sends an email notification for activations as well. Sent from my iPhone

AirPods Pro Unboxing Photos

Image
I purchased these AirPods from Abenson for only 13,490 pesos: I saved 1,500! I dunno where they sourced it, but the AirPods are authentic. This is the packaging: Need to pull this to remove the plastic cover: Cover removed: These are the user guides: No Apple sticker 😢 Next is the case with the AirPods inside: The AirPods are less than 50% charged, but ready-to-use. Next is the lightning to USB-C cable. No adapter or whatever. I got confused with it. I tried my iPhone charger and it worked. Last, but not the least are the two extra silicone ear tips: The last pair is attached to the AirPods in the case. No more: AirPods are around an inch: Sent from my iPhone
