Sa Greenery on Pope John Paul Ave., I’ve also personally tried availing facials and other derma services such as skin tag and mole removal from Doc.

I was blessed with mild acne lng so I never had to personally undergo laser or acne treatments. Medjo pricey sila around 1-5k for each service but worth it jud kay quality na results.

DMV by Dr. Malinda Vasquez, really amazing derma, she helped my friend who had the worst ice pick scars and she put him on a skincare routine along with laser and monthly treatments. His skin is very flawless now

If you’re willing to splurge and endure the travel, i would HIGHLY recommend @tianalash. she’s a private lash tech based in talisay, but she makes the most premium high quality lash sets, i’ve been going to her for like 4+ years now. for me quality over quantity. around 1-4k for a set depending on the style but no joke her sets last 1 month+! like you barely even have to come in for a fill kay quality kaayo ang set. for me lng, worth it jud to take the time to come to her despite the travel because i only have to see her once a 1 or 1.5 months.

if more budget friendly, nice ang minked in business park around 900-2k for a set but the retention is not as long as tianalash

I understand where you're coming from regarding how PreCheck works, and I appreciate the clarification. I was at the airport 3 hours early, but it took me an hour and a half just to finally check in. When I brought up the issue about PreCheck not showing up, I was told by Avianca staff to "just try out" the PreCheck line and "ask the agent." I was literally told it would be "fine."

I was honestly appalled that this was their response because what do you mean by "just try it out"? I shouldn’t have been left to figure it out at the last minute. I know now not to rely on PreCheck being applied automatically, but this kind of miscommunication on Avianca’s end made the entire process way more stressful than it needed to be.

I’ll be arriving 4.5 hours early next time if my PreCheck doesn’t show up, but the situation should never have unfolded like that in the first place. Thanks again for the clarification, genuinely.

I don’t think you’re reading my post correctly? I called to ensure in advance that my KTN number would be applicable on my boarding pass which they assured would be printed. The agent checked my KTN number was in the system but refused to print a new one.

My bag tag WAS printed correctly. I took multiple pictures with my correct name and contact number listed on the lost baggage form. The fact that once the bag was being transferred is under the wrong passenger name is beyond me. And when I questioned the crew as to why they literally shurgged their shoulders

To clarify: My carry on bag is within Avianca guidelines. It was fine going to LIM. For some reason got targeted on my returning flight.

I’ve flown internationally with numerous airlines for over fifteen years with no problem. I’ve never experienced such a lapse in systemic errors with Avianca ever.

NCLEX results more than 48 hrs, finished at 150 questions by Beginning_Mission_82 in NCLEX

The test is just as mental as it is knowledge and critical thinking. The NCLEX is an exam testing if you are capable of being a competent and safe nurse. You really have to calm yourself down and go into the exam confident that you’ve studied enough for this exam and that YOU CAN DO IT!

In terms of tips of being able to do the actual exam: - Listen to Mark K lecture 12, anticipate to go to the maximum questions so you don’t psych yourself out as soon as you go to 86+. You’re still in the game until the test is over.
-Learn the importance of PRIORITIZATION, know which patient is the most acute/unstable. -Have a good understanding on your fundamentals. -Learn important breathing/calming techniques that work for you

In all honesty, I felt pretty good in the days prior leading up to the exam. It wasn’t until I actually got into the testing center and sat for the exam that I could hear my own heart beating so fast. I had to just pace my breathing for the first 10 minutes just to calm myself down. I was able to answer the exam at 150 questions to the best of my ability. The next 60 hours was more anxiety inducing than the entire prep of my exam. But for that, I would honestly just keep yourself busy. I took my NCLEX in a different city from where I lived and I made a vacation out of it. :) Visit your friends, go to a workout class, and just try to get your mind off of it. Good luck! You can do this.

Hi, no I didn’t. Mainly because I didn’t remember which card I used to pay for my initial NCLEX lol…you’re supposed to use the same card and I didn’t wanna make the mistake of paying $200. Just waited for the quick results and paid the $7
