OMG, The Memory Gap Almost Killed Me! 😂   So, you know that super frustrating feeling when your brain just decides to forget something REALLY important? Yeah, the memory gap. It's the WORST. Like, seriously petrifying. You're stuck, paralyzed, unable to do ANYTHING until that missing piece of info magically reappears. It's happened to all of us, right?   Anyway, I was scrolling through TikTok (as one does) and I saw this singer who totally reminded me of Amy Winehouse.

Mali pala yung sinakyan kong Angkas! Grabe, ang clumsy ko!...
