Meet the kids

Images of my childhood keeps running on my mind today.
I have a good laugh together with Mom and my brothers who keep on insisting that all the kids in our compound took some lovielly-like attitude.
I couldn't believed that I was so naughty then.( Nyehehe...sa hinhin kong 'to?)

(~~~~~)

My brother took time to look at the pictures of my pamangkins.
Tawa nga s'ya ng tawa kasi nga some of the pictures taken were odd.
When they grow up and would look back at their past me makikita silang pruweba of how they are as a child.
"Yun lang naman ang point ko but it was understood differently.
Ngee... ako tuloy ang tinamaan."
Hamakin mo ako talaga ang itinurong pinagkuhanan ng mga characteristics na 'yun.

(~~~~~)
Si Lean naman is very proud na kaugali ko siya. She adores me! During school days her mother would always tell her to comb her hair. She will reFused talaga!
and tell her mama na : No way!!! Witchy-witchy baya ko haa.

Maxine is a girly type. Napakacreative na bata. She loves to make stories. Somehow parang ako rin. At young age iniisip na niya to help her family. There's nothing weird about her. She is perfectly normal. Oh wait, she can't stop dancing pag nakakarinig ng 80's na dance groove.

Si Igiboy superclose lang to me kapag wala ng ibang kakampi or kapag he wanted to eat sa Jollibee or Mcdonald. Masarap syang yakapin! Nakakabaliw din when he talks! Masyadong baby-likeeee....

Si LJ kabarkada ko sa sinehan, party, at iba pang kaek-ekan. We don't allow her to go out alone kasi, kaya ako parati ang nagiging tsaperun kapag me outing ang dalagitang ito. Di nila alam na mas ako pa yata yung isip-bata. Nyehehehehe

Si Bien naman mahilig maglaro. Ako 'yung mommy na ka-playmate nya. Kapag inaway nga sya sa school, inaaway ko rin yung kaaway nya. (isip-bata talagaa)
But I can easily make friends ha? Yun nga lang mga isip-bata din. hehehehe

(~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)

Bien loves to read while waiting for someone (Be it in the mall, restaurant or anywhere). Now, That's me.
LJ dresses like Witchy. She loves stockings and she walks like me.
Bien and Lean love to boat alone. That's onething scary diba? It's not being me. Takot ako sa waterrr..
Mahilig sa Farm. I mean magpose ng magpose kahit sa farm. Nakow nakuha ni Lean ( The girl in the black and white clothing)
Suplada. Mahilig makipag-bangayan. Look, galit sya ke Bien kasi di raw marunong gumamit ng shower. She wanted the boy to use tabo at timba lang pero di pumayag si Bien kasi nauna daw syang magshower. Ayan, nakagalit na naman si Lean.
Unique manamit. Walang pakialam sa sasabihin ng iba. Natutuwa kapag weirdy ang suot. Nyeekkkk ... akin uling ugali~ namana na naman ni Lean.
Natutulog kapag nagbibiyahe kahit saan. The last time na nakatulog ako? Umabot yata ako sa dulo ng Toril. That was the time last month kung saan nagdate kami ni Bes sa Samal Island. Si Dad Erv was already texting Bes kung nasaan na ako kasi di ko nasasagot yung mga calls nya. Tulog nga ako sabi. Buti na lang mabait yung taxi driver at ginising ako. Tagal ko kayang nakauwi that time.

Mapagmahal sa hayooop... hehehe. Igiboy took it from me daw according to my Mom. Pero honestly during younger years sadista ako sa mga aso at pusa.

Bagoong, tantanan mo ako

Ang Papa gumawa ng pagkasarap-sarap na bagoong. Iniluto ng Mom today after 6 months na ibinuro. Kaninang umaga pa ako kain ng kain ng kanin! Dyusko!!!!
Self-discipline~ parati kong sinasabi sa aking sarili. Pero ang hirap iwasan ng bagoong!
The hardest part pa naman ay 'yung ang sarap-sarap ng kain mo tapos magi-guilty ka after. Sarap I-vomit kaya lang bad sa health. Tamad pa akong mag-exercise this week.
Tinamad na nga ako, binagoong pa!
Wahhhh.......

Hey Jayvee Jude

I'm so lazyy.
I just wanna sleep after studying then watched Sharon Cuneta's old movies.
I can not even afford to go out the house.
Takot yata ako sa water. Ewww...
Actually my new project is very alien to me.
This has something to do with underwater study. Very different from my previous projects. Just like everybody syempre I wanna give my best and learn new things.
The hardest part lang naman talaga is that ang hirap magsuklay ng hair!!!
I'm soo curlyyy....
kaya when I'm online ayaw kong makipag C2C sa mga friends.
Imagine I'm waking up late, magba-brush ng teeth, magkakape, kakain ng oatmeal,maghihilamus,tapos yun na magbababad uli sa room at paninindigang maging bruha ever.
My son would spend time sa Mom ko and to his cousins. Once in a while he would drop by and be with me tapos alis na.
In times like this, I easily get irritated. I can not afford to be distracted.
I'm so grumpy.
Grrr...
but you know what?
Jayvee could make me smile.
My heart can't say no to her.
When she pops-out in my YM and would say
"Hi gang!"
You could imagine that I really am grinning.
Grabee, kaloka talaga minsan si Jayvee.
Anyway gang, this is all I can say for now.
I am complying my girlfriend's request to just blog today.
I love you gang.
I am so glad that despite of my bad-mannered attitude kang Nancy, you remain in my side.
Kaya minsan gang the first time Lae told me that I was kind~ speechless ang witchy~. Parang hindi man oi.
I'm glad to have her as friend. Bahh ang ganda kaya parang artista.
Hey Jude, eto pah, until now napapailing ako sa secret mong ini-reveal to me.
Nyahahahaha...
Is it? REALLY?

Who is WitchyBoop?

Out of Reach

'just lying in bed today and reading my books while playing this song in my pc over and over again.
The longer I savored its lyrics, the more I get drowned in it.
Not that I don't love my Tweetydad but I just remembered a feelings in my past. ( Looking back, I realized how stupid I was)

Out of Reach

'just lying in bed today and reading my books.
I just let this play in my mp4 over and over.
The longer I savored its lyrics, the more I'm drowning in to it.

National Bookstore in GenSan

My life is perfect!
'been dreaming of this for so long.
Pwede ko ng kalimutang me Davao City pala.
(If I could only bring the people I love na nakatira dun here, pwedeng pwede ng kalimutan).

I was having a meeting with the Alcantara's sa Pizza Hut inside KCC Mall when my Mom called me to meet them dun lang sa katabing mall (Gaisano) after my business talk kasi di-neyt nya si Bien at ang pamangkin kong si Leslie. I told them na I would come kay patapos na rin ang aking transaction.
Hinatid ako ng driver ng client ko sa Gaisano at subrang surprised ko talaga when I saw some people constructing the National Bookstore Branch here.
There was a sticky moment between my eyes and the insides of the bookstore. I can't wait to be in on its opening day.
This is honestly one of my dreams. National Bookstore in Gensan way back highschool days.
Now, it came true. Wow!!! As in Wowww na wowwww talaga!
I just have my heart back that I left in Davao.
My Sanctuaryyy.......

Fun indeed!

Salvee 'kakatuwa naman ang Tag na 'to!

The rule: Name 11 people you can think of right off the top of your head. Don’t read the questions underneath until you write the names of all the 11 people. This is a lot funnier if you actually randomly list the names first. No cheating.

2. Gladys Sobremonte
   
3. Alma
   
4. Rod
   
5. Mon
   
6. jOEL
   
7. dENNIS
   
8. eVELyn

10. Jayvee
    
11. Annie

1. How did you meet # 4?Oh my!!! He was my SupeR Crush (Kamukha nya si Andy Garcia!!) I met him during my lawschooldays in Ateneo. It was parang love at first sight. Tapos ako pa yata yung nagpli-flirtt! We've been going out actually. Sheyyttt ~~~ pa-date- date sa Mcdo at Chowking. Pa-Coffee - coffee sa Monster cAFE but I dont know what happened nung nanligaw na kasi biglang nawala yung kilig factor. I realized that I was in love with someone else. Yung katabi ko lang pala sa upuan at kapitbahay. Yung someone na parating andyan for me and guess what? I married him instead of Rod.

2. What would you do without #5?This is really fun!!!! He was out of my life long long time ago. Duhh.... lovestory na 'to ni Witchy. Mon was my first boyfriend. Alam nyo na, gaya nga ng isinulat ni Milan Kundera that "The one who teaches you love will be the one who will give you pain". In my case it was true.

3. What would you do if #2 and # 6 were going out? It's like the Catcher in the Rye meets Girl Interrupted. Gosh!! Si Joel at si Gladys? Earth pa ba ito?

4. Who’s #10’s best friend?My husband. She hates it everytime Ervien would tell her na " Jei, alam mo bitaw na masama yan. Stop it... tama na yan. Unfair yan kay Jeph." I could imagine how she rolled her eyes and wrinkled her nose. Hehehee

5. Have you ever eaten around #1?We eat together as in everyday umabot pa nga kami sa tuktok ng Mt. Matutum hanggang sa Sarangani Bay. From Davao City hanggang sa kadulu-duluhan ng Munisipyo ng Sarangani Province. Connie is my good friend when I was still working in DENR and until now she would still visit me here in Gensan . Eating is not something that we fond doing together. It's photography and sorting-out people at work who love to make things difficult for someone as good as we are (Nyeh!). I miss the old life pala. Living with the communities in the heart of Mt. Matutum. Hayyysss.
Bahh... kinaya naming kumain sa dahon lang ng saging kasabay ang mga taong naninirahan doon but we have fun. Living with these people taught me a lot.
We actually lived and eat with them for years, paminsan-minsan lang nag-e-stay sa office. We learned to love them including the kids in the community. Na miss ko tuloy!!!
Minamani lang din ni Connie na lakarin yung pitung bundok na antataas. Kasali na dun yung mga ahas na nakikita namin during the hike. To top it all, I have learned to eat exotic food that these people are eating. Imagine ~~adobong sawa, ginataang bayawak, piniritong unggoy, and tinolang musang. In fairness , masarap din naman. That's what Connie and Witchy been eating in the field!!!

6. Do you miss #2? Naku hindiii!!! Bungangera si Gladys. Eskandalosa pa... maingay when she is around. Noong mga single pa kami, pag di sya natataypan ng crush nya she will bring me tapos ako ang liligawan (hehehe) sasakyan ko naman. Date kami kunyari nung guy pero iiwanan ko yung guy, biglang may I appear ang drama ni Gladys hanggang sa yun, sila na nga. Tapos super inlove ang loka! She couldn't live with out the guy . After a month break na sila at inlove na naman sya sa iba. She don't believe in marriage and she is proud of it. But I love her. She makes my life easy.

7. Who is #11 dating?She is happily married.

8. What do you think of #3?A very good friend. We've known each other since birth. She loves me and I always appreciate that. Si Alma naman is a family na. Adopted daughter ng Mom and Dad ko.

9. What do you think of #9?Joan is quite type. Pero ang lalim nyang tao. She wanted everything to be perfect. Sometimes I feel like undeserving of her friendship. Kita nyo naman how brutal I am. Di kami matchhh... but when we are together, wala talagang problema. We don't have to explain anything eh. Parang magic na naiintindihan na namin agad ang isa't isa. I really am excited to be with her again this October. God's will she will be coming home from Thailand. Godd...I miss her friendship! She is super talented! I admire herrrr...

10. Who does #2 like? Ngayon?Nakuuuu marami pa rin. Di ko ma-gets...... grabeee

11. Would you marry #8?She is my bestfriend. I love her more than marriage. Nakksss!
When I almost died in a car accident six years ago, naisip ko sya kasabay ng mga taong mahal ko. I love her more than Xena loves Gabrielle. One of the reason why I dumped Nancy (bitch!) because she hurt her before at idinamay nya pa sa gulo last month. ~oist... I'm smiling~

I'm tagging Joan, Jayvee, Lae, Bes and Lira!!!

Bes, dugay-dugay na sad ta wa nagkita. Gimingaw man noon ko nimo. Musta na man ka dinha sa layo?
Pag-email sad beh....

My Dad and my Mom while eating our breakfast.

Boating!!! The whole family enjoyed that activity. Our first time doing this together~

Maxine floating her body. She was telling me that she's doing some YoGa. ~nubayan..~

Yan.. yan na naman...nag post ulit si WitcHy!!

My mom with Maxine walking on the bridge.
"It feels great to be here. The wind will give you peace once it touches your skin."

Witchy together with Bien, Maxine and Leslie Joy.
Next time na lang ang full body view ni Witchy na nakaswim suit kapag sexy na sya.. nyahahahah

The rest house we rented in Del Rio Spash Resort.

The resort is located at Marbel, South Cotabato.
People here are very friendly and accommodating.
It is like you have never left your home.
When we first laid our eyes in this place, all kids were really shouting.
In fact I just realized how calming their laughters are. Nakakawala ng pressure.
Tapos masaya pa ang mommy at ang papa ko.
Sarap pala ng ganito.
I have never felt this happiness kasi naman noon di namin naexperience yung out of towns like this when we are younger.
Today na lang bumabawi ang mommy at papa kasama ang mga apo nila.

You know, I would love to do this again with Ervien and Bien. Siguro after my husband's nursing board exam this June. Tapos sana tulungan nyo 'kong pagdasal na he will make it.
Salamat!!!

Celebrating it with my mom, dad, nephews,nieces,brother and Bien in Koronadal South Cotabato.

I'm not Messy!!!

I would like to thank my friend Shan for this tag.
Actually, I'm a bit messy ( Blushing!).

You Are Not Messy

You're so clean, people have accused you of being a clean freak! I just want my bed to be always tidy. With regards to other things, I'm not that particular. You like things tidy, organized, and smelling fresh. I always love to smell an apple scent esp in my room. Messes drive you crazy, especially when you didn't make them. True... It's hard for you to live with a slob - or someone who leaves their dishes in the sink. Ewww.... pwede ko siyang itakwil nyan...

Are You Messy?

Fish Burial

I felt sad after finishing the Milan Kundera book entitled “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” (Opsey! Don’t get me wrong. I love the book!) And so in an aim to uplift my soul, I finished reading the whole book of Meg Cabot’s Princess Diaries ~ a birthday gift from Alma. I couldn’t thank her enough for the series of joys I’ve encountered during my reading and in fact I am now craving for more of Meg Cabot’s masterpieces. This is the reason why I wake up late this morning. I opened my eyes realizing that Bien is no longer in my bed. So after fixing my self and have my coffee, I went outside. I saw the kids were busy doing something. When I get near them I could see how sad they are ! Trying to find out what happened, I saw this stuff and have it pictured for my blog. I felt the need to post this here tonight because I find it odd and ohhh.... cutee!!!
Then Maxine hands to me the posporo-coffin.
"Tita she's dead. We will bury her in tomb-stone like Jesus."
" Haaa....." I said sadly.

Oh, actually I wanted so much to laugh but I just can't afford it because I know they're feeling a little miserable right now~ (definitely my laughters will disappoint them). If there is one person who knows how much they love that pet~ it's me. Can you imagine being left by your favorite fish? Hehee . This is one of the creative things that really captured my attention.
Igiboy gets the fish-coffin to me.
"Tala na, ato na ilubong fish" ( Come on, let's bury the fish now) he said in a baby-like tune inviting the other kids to join him.
So he placed the fish-coffin on the top of a broken hollow-block which in my own understanding will served as the stone-tomb Maxine was telling me a while ago.
"Tita, dali na. Apil na kay amu-a na gyud ni ilubong" (Aunt join us now. We will start burying the fish) Lean said to me seriously while pulling my hands, she is excited that I will be joining them in their ceremony.
"Dili ko uyy... kamo na lang. Next time na lang ko apil ig naa sa sad mamatay." (No, just go on. If another fish will die next time, then I will join you guys). I said to her then walked a little far from where they are. My hidden agenda is to document them.

(From right: Lean in a white flowery dress, Bien seriously praying and so with Maxine, Igiboy and Rohanne)

I was caught by Lean clicking my phone-camera. Silently I motioned my fingers on the tip of my nose and told her to keep quite. She just smiled and winked her eyes to me naughtily while her cousins are still busy casting their prayer. (Maxine would surely hate the idea of getting some photos of her doing this stuff. This might spoil her mood.)
In their prayer I heard them thanking Jesus for the time spent by the fish with them. I took the split seconds to sense the warmth of the flame caused by their words.
This is a simple demonstration of love!
Being happy and content is a state of mind. We must only look for the positive in every new change.

~On Milan Kundera's The unbearable Lightness of Being~
I must not take the book negatively and assumed that the characters of Tomas and Tereza are all true. It is a very sad and touching story. I could say that the novel is difficult but it happens in real life. The general rejection of established social conventions and beliefs, especially of morality and religion is up to now present in our society.
Tereza and Tomas has a painful love affair. They are destined to live together and yet never ceasing to cause each other an enormous pain and suffering. I can not separate the feelings of love and pain in here. Whenever I feel the love I also feel the pain!
Expected namang magmahal ka at masaktan after but in this novel habang ako ay umiibig ako'y nasasaktan din. Sabay kong naramdaman yung dalawang elemento ng buhay. I just couldn't be happy lOving. Usually when we are inlove, we feel so inspired. Our eyes would glitter. We are just crazily happy. Not in Tomas and Tereza's story.
I am not disappointed with the book. It helps me see clearly the other side of loving, living and depending your happiness to the other person. Yun bang you are just trying to be happy believing that this person is the one who gives you happiness
but inside you alam mong malungkot ka pa rin kasi nga kulang ang pagkatao mo bago kayo nagsama. Yun bang feeling na ito yung lalaking magpapaligaya sa iyo kasi he will fix whatever is broken in you. Pero it will turned out differently. Slowly mas kakainin ka ng insecurities mo. Mas lalo ka lang lulubog. To the point na both of you are hurting each other na pala. I breath so deeply while closing the book. If this is love, I don't wanna contribute. I will stay away and just be a witch.
I may hate the feelings but I love the learnings it give me.
The positive outlook of this novel, brings me back Bob Moawad's words that we can work miracles by having faith in others. To get the best out of the people, choose to think and believe the best about them.

Watching the kids buried the fish made me realized that Bob is right.

(Some kids here are actually crying in the sudden death of their pet and others are busy getting some flowers )

On going nature

I am drenching in a sweat today looking for my old photograph files to be posted in our new blogbaby created by Gladys with my Besfren Eve. It's actually a photograph that would feature my home-town General Santos City. Eve will also be posting anything that talks about Davao City and the creator Gladys will also be promoting the places she's been in the US.
Actually, I find this activity more as a friendship-bonding. We will be able to collect each others tune in terms of anything our mind could reach.
I already have some concept (excitedd) but for now I find something that tells me that "Yeah, I do have good times working in a special project of DENR years ago."
It restores my lost memories with nature conservation.

(An Ocean month activity in one of the coastal areas of Glan, Sarangani Province. Together with the community and some Local Environmental Officers, these turtles were given a freedom to be home once more)

In my garden

I make progress in this blogging-world by having friends and bloghomes around me that are smarter than I am. Reading them is more than a vitamin to keep my brain working.
I'd like to say thanks to all my links. Some are my personal friends, some are my virtual friends but all of you are part of my daily routine that I visit everyday.
My creative mind prefers to flower here. I think this is a good place for growth as well. Here I find warmth, light and plenty of food. What a good world isn't it?

Just a note

We are trained to handle small things in preparation for the bigger ones to care for. Before we can take care for the feelings of the other person we must learn first our own. Before we can love more people we must love first those we presently live and work!
I'm not a veteran for this topic, until now it is such a struggle. Doing things that my heart refused to is more than enough to fathom.
In the past I met and worked with people who made me feel so small. Now I realized that as I look back, I would not feel that way if I had not allowed them to.
You know, I was surrounded with people all this time. They are the one who makes me feel great. ( Of course that feeling so small is an old time story already. I am now back to who really I am. The Lovielly way back Holy Crossian days)
In my 30th birthday I realized that if you try to keep an open mind regarding change, you will see that you will not let your fears hinder the bright possibilities stored in you.
Yes, as human as I am, fears are still dancing in my vision but I have now ways to encourage my self with acceptance.

What Makes you different (Makes you beautiful)

This is my birthday song today and for the rest of my birthdays to come.

Living in this world when you have friends and family that
recognizes , loves, and understands the difference in you will keep you whole and priceless as long as you live.


You don't run with the crowd
You go your own way
You don't play after dark
You light up my day
Got your own kind of style
That sets you apart
Baby, that's why you captured my heart

I know sometimes you feel like you don't fit in
And this world doesn't know what you have within
When I look at you, I see something rare
A rose that can grow anywhere (grow anywhere)
And there's no one I know that can compare

What makes you different, (alright) makes you beautiful (alright)
What's there inside you, (alright) shines through to me
In your eyes I see, all the love I'll ever need
You're all I need, oh girl
What makes you different, makes you beautiful to me

Hey, yeah yeah yeah
You got something so real
You touched me so deep (touched me so deep)
See material things
Don't matter to me
So come as you are
You've got nothing to prove
You won me with all that you do
And I wanna take this chance to say to you

What makes you different, (alright, yeah yeah) makes you beautiful (alright)
What's there inside you, (alright) shines through to me
In your eyes I see, all the love I'll ever need
You're all I need, oh girl
What makes you different, makes you beautiful

You don't know (you don't know) how you touched my life (touched my life)
Oh in so many ways (so many ways) I just can't describe
You taught me what love is supposed to be
You saw the little things that make you beautiful to me (so beautiful)
Oh yeah, yeah

What makes you,
What makes you different, (what makes) makes you beautiful (to me)
What's there inside you, (there shines) shines through to me
In your eyes I see, all the love I'll ever need
You're all I need, oh girl
What makes you different, makes you beautiful to me

Everything you do is beautiful (so beautiful)
Love you give shines right through me (shines right through to me)
Everything you do is beautiful (ooh, ooh ooh ooh oh)
Oh, you're beautiful to me (to me)

Happy Birthday Witchy

Your Birthdate: April 21

You're a restless rebel with an unpredictable nature. ~ Hmmm... I guess so. Bright but unbridled, you tend to seek out wild experiences over new ideas. ~Yeah..right. People are frustrated by your great potential, but you love your unconventional life. ~Very witchy-like indeed! You're a heartbreaker. People get attached to you, and then you're gone. ~ Awww... that's bad. I hope it's not true. Your strength: Your thirst for adventure ~It bores me when it's not challenging. The harder, the better. Your weakness: Not taking time for slow pleasures ~It disturbs my concentration if I'm dealing with a slow moving technology. I wanna do many things at the same time. I would rather sleep than wait. Your power color: Hot pink ~I get attracted to pink but I always wear black. I love to watch men wearing pink clothes. Hot pink? Aws, Hot? Thinking..thinking... Your power symbol: Figure eight ~Doing things in a right timing. I don't exposed my talent right away. That's being 8 right? Or I love 80's be it music or a filipino movies of Seiko, Viva and Regal Films. (Hehehe far-out) Your power month: March Errr...

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

Best of friends

I asked the wind where would I find my riches?

Then the wind touches my whole being and whispered that my riches is just there beside me under the big blue sky

Love at first sight

This dog gives me a heartwarming smile while entering the administration office of my husband’s school. The first time she laid eyes on me she can't help but stayed. Wrapped its body around my legs. I was a little scared thinking this creature will bite me. But How could she? She’s so adorable.

The dog keeps on staring at me. Maybe thinking I was her master or a friend in her past life.

I couldn’t help it anymore. I was bewitched by the way she looks at me. AAhhhh this dog is driving me crazy now. I reach out on her. Take her. Put her around my arms. Hugging and touching her…

It feels so good. I don’t wanna let go. I wanna take her with me.

I guessss…. this is what love at first sight is.

I am inlove…. So inlove….

KC as Betty la Fea

If the casting of TV-soap Betty La Fea Pinoy version here is true then I couldn't wait to watch this every night. I can afford to sacrifice my reading time for KC. She made me cry when she guested in the drama show Maalala mo kaya and since then I became her fan.
For me I find the casting perfect.
This will truly hit the market.

Bien is in Gryffindor!
He is honestly happy with the result and take this one seriously.
Hah! If I know he just want his Dad to see this. Hmmm...

Congratulations on making Gryffindor!

Basically, you're brave, daring, chivalrous, and pretty much.. an all around good person. Of course, some see you as a goodie-two-shoes. But hey, it's true! You're really good at winning, and normally always come out as the hero. Everybody likes you.. except, maybe, the Slytherins. You're too perfect. No, really.. You're too perfect. It's annoying to watch you win, repeatedly. Oh well. Be proud anyway.

Well you're one smart little cookie, aren't you? You're wise and clever, and just love to use your wit and learning to your advantage, and sometimes even the disadvantage of others. Well, nerd, there IS a world outside of that copy of 'Hogwarts: A History', you know.. Oh don't worry! We all know you're special. You're just a naturally good learner, right?

A mother's love

I was actually smiling after reading Lae's latest post. She's talented and innovative actually in expressing her thoughts. I must say she is really decent even if she's hitting someone. I find her sweet and no question about her wits. Moonlae got loads of it.
Napalitan 'yung smile ko when I finished reading Nyl's article.
I realized that I couldn't afford to be treated by my son the way in her article goes.

Please click

I haVe so much more to tell my mOm. I will always appreciate here more now. It is scary to not to tell her everything I wanted to say while she's still with me.
I came from her. Flesh and blood and maybe in a year or two, kapag nasa New Z na kami ni Dad and Bien I will always stay connected with her and make sure that in Bien's heart and to my coming kids to be she will always remain. She brings me to life and give me the world.
I love her that is why the story I've linked tasted my tears.

Bien is good

Last March 15 Bien graduated his kinder Two Class valedictorian. He got four medals all in his academic subject and 4 ribbons for his exemplary attitude during the whole year. In return we bought him books that he wanted the most and dream toys too. We also tour him in Davao showing him all the water forms and land forms the said city could offer.

Today he just give us a wonderful gift. His original schedule for Grade 1 assessment was yesterday but due to some reasons it was postponed and have it re-scheduled today.
'know what? He got it all perfect. This means we have free books and school supplies for the whole year. But aside from almost five thousand worth of books, it means a lot to us. We are just happy seeing his fire to learn more in life.

I just asked him how did he feel that he got the assessment perfect today. He told me that he feels great. He wanted to have many choices in life.
The last one struck me. Hindi ko naisip yun when I was younger at kahit na ngayun. I just studied to have good job pero yung choices di ko na naisip.

Tama bitaw no? Learning puts you ahead after you get out from school. We may heard about global economy and the world is becoming one big market place. So kahit na maging scientist ka pa you need both skills and education to keep up with the workers around the world.
Masyado lang yatang napa OA ang reactions ko. Basta we are just happy today. The family celebrated this with coke and pandesal for kids, coffee naman for the adults.
Then Bien together with his cousins played so hard kaya eto ngayun super-dooper tulog.
