Hello World!
This is a hub for essays that matter. I will try my best to write argumentative, narrative, process, and evaluations essays, and of issues that matter to me, to you and to the rest of the world. Their formats would be in MLA (Modern Language Association) or APA (American Psychological Association (APA) formats; likewise, resources will be cited based from the two mentioned linguists communities.
Nonetheless, please join me in another meaningful journey. I highly welcome suggestions, recommendations and the likes. Please email me at ainabalagtas@me.com for such concerns. Thank you so much for dropping by! God bless, and aloha!
Sincerely,
Aina Balagtas

Hello, Wendell! I miss yours too! I am graduating actually, and crazy busy with school. Plus, it’s tax season, I am preparing taxes for free with the IRS and the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii. I’ve been doing it since 2008, from January to April or the entire tax season. It’s a yearly devotion I promised GOD to do for him and our less privileged folks here, in Oahu. In addition, aside from LASH (Legal Aid), beginning Saturday, I will also prepare taxes for Chaminade University. Thank you so much for remembering me! I will make it up to you! Take care! 😊

Tienny, as per Merriam Webster, ditto means : a thing mentioned previously or above — used to avoid repeating a word — often symbolized by inverted commas or apostrophes.
As per our conversation, ditto is reiterating what you previously said: “Thank you for following. Thank you for future likes.”
