Feature: Sounds Kradle Makes Musical Dreams Come Through

     Growing up in a family of karaoke singers, I've been hearing different song genres during family gatherings and occasions. At a very young age, I was also introduced to musical instruments because my father is a frustrated musician. Thinking that I'm musically inclined, they enrolled me in different music schools but I was not able to finish the courses as I've lost interest after a few sessions. Despite the on and off interest in piano, drums and voice lessons, dreaming of playing a musical instrument in a band is still on my once in a lifetime bucket list.

     Fast forward today, I believed that my son will make my musical dreams into reality. At a very young age, he showed interest in playing the guitar. My husband was a band guitarist before that's why he was able to teach my son the basics of playing the guitar. But learning should not be confined in the four corners of home that's why enrolling in a music school is a must. Yes, it's the right thing to do especially if you want to learn more than the basics. Music fans and aficionados are fortunate these days as music schools here in the country are easily accessible and the leading music school in the country, Sounds Kradle is here to let you or your kids achieve musical dreams into reality. Get to know more about Sounds Kradle and what's in store for you when you enroll in their classes after the jump.

Jolina Magdangal for OMROM PH's "Be Sure Campaign"

     In the bustling world of Filipino television, Jolina Magdangal has long been a household name, lighting up screens with her vibrant personality and unmistakable charm. But off-screen, she is just as dedicated in her role as a wife and mother of two, always putting her family’s health and happiness first. This dedication to good health makes Jolina the ideal brand ambassador for OMRON Healthcare business in the Philippines, the country’s leading provider of health monitoring and management solutions. As the new face of OMRON, the multifaceted actress emphasizes the crucial role of healthcare monitoring in ensuring family wellness through its “Be Sure” campaign.

     Like Jolina, I'm an advocate of health and wellness through a healthy lifestyle. It may sound cliché that "prevention is better than cure" but I will not get tired of saying this to my family and friends repeatedly. I've experienced a lot of difficulty during the time that my father is in and out of the hospital during his dialysis days. The sight of the emergency room has been traumatizing and the stress that it gave me both physically and mentally is something that I don't want to happen again. Thankful that OMRON PH launch this campaign with Jolina Magdangal to understand why it's important to "Be Sure" when it comes to monitoring our family's health.
