When is Obedience ...Obedience?

Kelan nga ba ang pagsunod e pagsunod? Ang hirap ano? Sa katulad kong tahimik, walang kibo, oo lang ng oo. May mali pala doon. Kasi darating ang panahon na ang sarili mong mga mahal sa buhay ay di ka na rin mabibigyan ng value bilang tao. Para bang eto hanggang dito ka lang. Para bang makina ka na lang ang tingin mo sa sarili mo o yung bang nakikipamilya na lang ang feeling mo sa sarili mong loved ones. Dumarating din pala sa isang tao ang sagarang heartaches, na parang wala na ka na lang magawa "kasi eh" . Pero sa totoo lang hirap ka na. Noon hirap na hirap ka i-ends meet ang budget kahit ang ganda ng trabaho mo kasi sa dami ng tao nakatira sa iyo ng libre. Kuryente, cable, telepono, pagkain, repairs...lahat para bang salo mo na ang buong mundo. Di ka naman makahirit ng reklamo. Ngayon hirap ka pa rin i-ends meet kasi, nawalan ka ng freelance job. Na kahit papano ay nakakabuhay ng isang tao o pamilya. Pero walang tumutulong sayo. Kapag pala ang isang tao, nasaid ang yaman sa sarili bilang na bilang na lamang ang magiging kaibigan at swerte mo kung may isa man sa tinulungan mo o pinatira mo ang sumama sayo. Ngayon ko napapatunayan na ang buhay ay gamitan lang pala ano? Habang may silbi ka, ikaw ang pina magaling sa lahat kung baga MVP. Most Valuable Player ika nga. Kapag walang wala ka na at natitira na lamang sayo e kakapiraso... swerte mo nkung meron pa nga.. Una-unahan pa ang mga taong minahal mo, inaruga mo, binigyan mo ng buhay, binigyan mo ng pagkakataon makilala ang mga bagay na di nila alam noon..na mag-iiwas na para kang may putok o worst kunwari di ka kilala.

Lahat pala ng bagay may hangganan. Lahat din pala ng bagay pwede mong magawa kapag desperado ka na. Yung bang pinipilit mong maging nasa Tuwid na Daan ka.. pero walang mag-akay sayo sa Tuwid na Daan na yun kundi ang malugmok ka sa dumi para kumita lang.Marami ring mga offer na di ka makapaniwala sa sarili na oferan ka ng ganoon e di ka naman kasing ganda ng Ms. Universe. Ngayon ko naintindihan na ang buhay ay mahirap. Nasa iyo na lang kung paano mo paliligayahin ang iyong sarili para naman di boring ang life.


Para sa mga bagong magulang pa lamang.. gawing mahusay ang pagpapalaki sa mga anak. Laging tandaan kung ano man ang misunderstanding niyong mag-asawa ay sa inyo lang. Para naman sa pakiki-apid, at kung hindi talaga maiiwasan na gawin niyo iyon itago ng maiigi na di malalaman ng kung sino lalo na miyembro ng pamilya.  Laging isipin ang mga anak ay anak. Kung Ano man ang gawin anak sa iyo pa rin babalik yan dahil kayo ang kinilala niyang pamilya.. kaya wag murahin..kutyain...o ipagtabuyan.

Mahirap sa isang tao ang di paniwalaan ng sariling mahal sa buhay. Paano kung kayo na lang pala ang inaasahan niyang makakaintiiindi sa kanya? Mahirap din yung lahat ginawa ng isang tao maitaguyod lang ang pamilya sa buhay na mahirap tapos para sa iyo pala wala lang siyang kwenta.

Bakit ko ito naisulat? na-ispire lang ako sa kinuwento ng isang kaibigan kong matalik at sana ay maging aral sa ating lahat na di sa lahat ng pagkakataon ay "you agree" dapat marunong ka rin mag -disagree para sa kabutihan ng puso mo at ng pagkatao mo at di ka maging biktima sa huli.

It Must Have Been Love..but it's OVER now! The Story of Apples NBSB

Hahahahahahahahahaha! what a title...one of the greatest hits of Roxette in the 90's . In reality...it is too difficult to find LOVE. Describe LOVE....naku! mahabang explanation wag na lang. I am writing this to encourage women like me to still stay there and wait. Don't follow your impulse and jump into something that you would REGRET sometime in your life. I know it is hard.. quite difficult when you see in every friend reunion and family reunion that you all see them happy with their own families. I can say that. Because I'm there. Many would ask Nye! bakit? ang ganda mo tapos wala? Ok ka lang di ka ba tao? you know "the needs"? or meron pa... "tuod" ka ba...wahahahahahahahahaha.What a hell of questions pero sa totoo lang na-eenjoy mo yung moments being single. Own space. No Rules. You can do what you want etc....etc....

One disadvantage lang siguro is when you will be at the point of a bad pms as in ang target "emotional feelings" and then when you needed some support everybody is too busy with their thing.
Boom! you will feel totally ALONE.

What is the connection of this blog to the title? sabi nga ni Elle sa Legally Blonde movie  "I promise I have a point!" Oh well.. a lot of women like me who is just in their average beauty, cleverness etc.. had experience situations like "It Must Have Been Love, But It's Over Now"..yung bang Ayan na! ang sweet etc.. yun pala sa huli Boom! di pala!

A lot of females are in this kind of dilemma. Some take it lightly.. some take it  seriously.. kaya hirap maka-move on and worst di na maka -launch sa bagong pag-ibig. Just like what others do.. Forget about being inlove.

Lets get into Apples' life ...she has been into It must have been love... then ngwek! di pala. I like her fighting spirit nakakabilib. Even with her lots of launch in love na epic fail naman... aba! try and try o  until you succeed ang motto niya sa buhay.

Experience#1 : First crush, first love, she's like a damn sunod-sunuran just to be liked by this childhood friend. When the guy left for U.S. Boom! heartbreak ang lola niyo. After 10 years he called her in her office? Wow! he knows? How? Why? ....and he even said sweet things to her...."arrange a reunion for all of us, I'll be the one to pay..." for her "why will I do that?" .. just do it.. what are friends are for. Ang tanga, ginawa naman. So eto ka na dumating... napasunod naman ni Apples yung mga childhood friend nila. So kanta moments sila, inom happy happy. Grand entrance si Guy....ooops may girl na kasama. Pero for her friends na nga lang diba. So Okay pa rin. Tuloy ang ligaya. Selfie-selfie together and of course silang dalawa.. etc. After months of staying in Manila. The girl in the party called her... "Hey Apples can you meet me? Ang loka sunod nanaman. She have her a rim of emails pretending to be Apples but actually Apples doesnt know anything about it. And she doesnt have that kind of email address.. Sa sobrang awa sa sarili ni Apples, and confusion.. literal pina-psyche niya pati yung rim ng emails. The psyche recommended for a cyber bullying crime. Apples went with the flow of the girl. She invited her to an engagement party. Wow! artista! may ganon papala.. Kung tutuusin Apples is living in a much better life than her. Sa loob loob na lang ni Apples, pag-lumabas ang demand letter at andito pa kayo lets see. At saka ang lakas ng tama nung girl kay Experience# 1 para mag-gagawa pa ng ganon.. She is totally an insane woman. Kawawang Apples.. suntok sa buwan ang vengeance. Hayaan na lang raw ang karma .

Experience#2
Nauso na si yahoo messenger.. chat dito chat doon. Astig! may nakapansin. Si Experience #2. He is a 5"11 handsome guy who lives with his whole family in a hectare of farm in Michigan. They had a LDR o yung tinatawag na long distance relationship for 3 years. Siyempre mamamatay sa kilig ang lola niyong si Apples. Pucha kamukha ba naman ni Dino Guevarra sa T.G.I.S. si guy. Weird you know because the guy proposed on chat. Where the witness is the 20 years yaya nila Apples. After a week, the ring came. Next week after, there was no foreign object who arrived in NAIA. The excuse of the guy, "Im too scared of the Abusayaf honey". Take note, nakipag video chat pa ang parents ni guy how safe will he be in the Philippines ang peg. Boom! hanggang sa totally wala na. The only memories Apples may have of him is the ring and her older sister who became friends with her in facebook.

Experience#3
New job! Higher position and Apples became sexier and prettier. With her soft and kind heart one time her cousin on her mom's side called her for a favor " girl, accept mo naman itong si German hottie para sa English Teacher niyo" anak ng amo ko ito magaling ito (accountant kasi siya ng mommy ni German hottie). Checking the credentials, aba'y true nga. Since they have one common denominator----her cousin, they became good friends. Oopps! uy pareho papala sila ng subdivision. so uso na ang carpool  . Na nauwi sa MU malabong usapan. hahahahahahahaha. Taga-ayos ng neck tie, taga cheer up of the day, taga hawak ng wallet, HHWW (holding hands while walking)  etc etc.. ang naging work ni Apples kay German Hottie pero ano sila? Well hindi nila alam kasi go with the flow ang peg. Intimacy? yes meron naman.. pero going down there? NONE saved after marriage raw. Bilib ako sa pagpalaki ng grandma ni Apples ang galing ng control.. which I think type ni German Hottie. Isang araw, may sakit raw si German Hottie. Di papasok. Ok so no carpool for the day. Apples made her work very fast checking every Teacher in class... and when she had a free time she bought lunch and went to German hottie's house... planning to eat lunch together and to check if he is fine na. Doorbel rings, bukas ng gate si becky yaya. "Ay ati bukit  anditu ka?" (with an awkward look) ..."maglulunch tayo gaga! prepare table!"---"why are you on my way?...MOVE" (o diba patintero sila). They prepared the table.  "Si Tita wala no? How long they will be in Germany?" ..becky yaya nods for yes but quiet. She called for German hottie's name many times aba walang sagot. Apples checked The Italian room (living room full of From Italy furnitures), the China room (2nd living room with China vases and all), the Mexican Dining (where they prepared the food and with mexican accents) ... The Royal Dining for fine dining parties and all the other rooms...hmmmm aba wala. ....except for the family room with Family Entertainment and aircon . From a far, you can hear something is squeaking. When Apples opened the door! Bam! German hottie is screwing their secretary in where they work.. Pucha! kaya pala wala rin... at #%$^&^&^%$ ina lang rin sabi mag-mcdonalds with their other friends. Betrayed by a  friend? Yes!

Experience#4
The bestest of them ever! Apples went to reach her dream when it comes to..you know career . Now she's one of the partners of where she works. One day a single guy came into where she works since her partner is not around who is the founder. The aide called her inside the office and said "mam, ajan si sir medyo problematic, nakapambahay and he looks awful. When she tried to peep who the person was, aba oo nga he looks awful. Kawawa naman she thought. "Yaya get a roll of tissue be with them and I'll talk to the person outside". Uy naging counselor na siya even she doesnt know what to say since she's never been married. Before pa lang,  her partner and the others were teasing her to the same person who is awful that day. Kasi they can smell something raw??? what?? e ano?? this awful guy kasi was always visible during summer time playing at grounds where she works before and kung tutuusin raw, he is not supposed to be there.  Hmmm.. mga malisyosa. She doesnt like the guy. She finds him a matchstick and parang super depressed with his life. Days, months, passed, the guy started o text her in a questionable manner? why? he was her client.. mag text ba naman sayo si client ng "I'll be at _______ just check on them for me". Questionable diba? Meron pang isa, " Hi, where are you?" ang gagang Apples sinagot naman.."Ah at home po, why?" "I'm here lang in my friends house drinking". ?????? Mas questionable diba??  and the rest went "Good morning.. etc... and some simple messages na inignore na lang niya.  One time, a little baby was keep on calling Apples mommy.... Weird. why? because the baby was the boy of the single guy. Scary pero smile na lang lola niyo. Another point fact, one time he just arrived at her house and the dad and the guy drank. You know bonding ng guys. ?????Why??? when he can feel na siguro that the alcohol is getting into him, he ran to Apples side and just quietly stayed at her side with a red face. Then the story of kilig went on. To make it short, one time the other kid of the same person, medyo malaki na ito, is keep on asking her, do you have a bf? do u like him? and the like.. e ano naman ngayon when he asked the boy. Well, the boy smartly answered, If he likes you, will it be ok? bec if it is..you will be a good mom to us.. youre so caring etc... Apples heart melted. Pero shempre di pahalata. Pero questionable pa rin. Nahihiya naman siyang magtanong kung anong meron. At baka magmukha lang siyang tanga. One time, with fb she saw her friend's comment thread with Exp#4 na shocks siya nakita niya? di naman siya malisyosa but what she saw alarmed her and she panicked. Until one time, her gut feel was right. Wala na .. He went cold.. she doesnt know why. Until one day she let her friend went drunk at siya lumaklak ng Olive oil para di malasing. This girl confessed something that broke her heart.Betrayal #2 by a friend? O yes! yes! yes!

Crap!  Wala na talaga. She pulled away herself from the situation even if for it was the hardest part for her. She went like a matchstick. Zombie like. Had asthma na before wala naman. Na E.R. ang loka! at keep on sorry naman si friendster sa E.R. nung nalaman niyang ang patient niya e si Apples. Siyempre, separation anxiety ba naman e. Pick Pack Boom! sayang diba.. happy ending story sana diba? pero hindi, sabi ni Direct God, wag tapusin ang teleserye malay mo baka may twist. hahahahahahahahahaha.

Experience#5
Healing her heart, her cousins were the craziest of them all! They went out sometime along the nearest commercial area and bond with their youngest Uncle. Invited pala 2 of their childhood playmates. Both have been to another country for work and they are here for a rest. Ok. after 1 week, one of the invited, called Apples and asked her for meet up in a coffeeshop. Nyak! galing bang Saudi para maging balbas sarado?!?!?! test pala yun. hahahahaha then the story carry on and they went ok.. then later on Apples father went ballistic when he found out that this guy was trying to pursue her. Pero siyempre di pahalata.Ito namang si father e malisyoso and very judgemental. Wala pa nga akala mo magpapasakal na este magpapakasal na. He tried to question the guy after dinner with the family.
"Kung kayo na anong gagawin mo sa anak ko?" "Kaya mo bang buhayin anak ko?" Wow! over-reacting diba? So then after a week.....chuk..chak... ting! Wala na si guy... pasok ngayon si Imelda Papin dito... "Isang linggong Pag-ibig" ....Hahahahahahahahaha!

Between Experience #2 and 3 meron pang-isa... si Bestfriend in highschool... they were like best friends for the longest time and was caring with each other every downs in their lives. On Apples birthday, He confessed his feelings to her. But she didnt say yes kasi nga Apples doesnt want their friendships to be ruined. However, deep inside her she wanted to say Yes. Duwag lang. Bestfriend went home. They didnt meet for 4 months. Until nagulat na lang si Apples, kinasal na sa ibang country. Heart breaking? Yes. Pero kunwari hindi.

You see, she was branded by her crazy cousins and friends as NBSB, but I dont think she was. She had this beautiful moments with these different people nga lang at the end, some became jerks.. and kung di naman, di natapos ang storya ng teleserye nila.

Nagiintay ka pa ba ng Experience#6? from her? well she does too! She keeps on praying and trying hard to meet this "one" who will make the story a happy ending. Love, mahirap i-explain pero once its there..its there and just let every moment sparkle with kilig, laughter and being together.

Simple chit-chats with kids make our everyday less wrinkles!

Did you ever know that talking to kids make our day to day lives less wrinkles? I can approve on that. As a worker who works with kids in the 16 years of my life, if you are going to see me from the day I graduated up to the present you would say I am one of the people whose may be immortal because walang nagbago! hahahaha! hindi naman sa nagbubuhat ng sariling bangko!

 I could still remember the days with this my favorite little kid  with a hottie daddy....

(inside their SUV car)
hottie daddy: Who is this?
kid: momma! (smiling and asking for me to hug him) #howcutethefacewas
me:no.. im not your momma! (thinking nye! sino kaya nagturo niyon sa kanya)
hottie daddy: (awkward)(siguro iniisip rin niya..."pucha anak baka isipin ni teacher tinuro ko yan sayo")
kid: momma (my name)!
me: no.. i am not your momma..i am teacher (my name)... daddy dont worry about it, he 's just like that because...you know the situation .....

Naku! pero those days of my life was like kulang na lang mamamatay na ako sa kilig. Kasi ano nga ba naman ang status hottie daddy? since single ka naman at iba ang treatment mo kasi, iniintay ka lang magsabi literally. hahahahahahaha.

Another thing that really made me laugh recently is what my little god daughter said when we were watching tv. Yung bang tawa na kulang na lang hindi ka na makahinga at ang luha mo non-stop. Sabi ba naman niya:

Kid: Ninang, malapit na tayong mag-beach, excited ako!
Ninang: Ah ganoon ba? ako ganoon rin kaya lang sad din a little kasi were not complete.
Kid: (looking at my pimple) Ninang anyare? bakit may GERMS ka sa face mo?
Ninang: Wahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! ( wala na di na maka-explain kasi naman laughtrip talga) (sa isip ko kakanood siguro ng safeguard sa commercials germs na ang tawag ngayon sa pimples)

Long time ago, an 8-year old kid was trying to convince me to like his hottie dad.

Kid: teacher are you single?
Me: yup
Kid : No boyfriend?
Me : (buntong hininga) yes why?
Kid: My dad is single too
Me: So?
Kid: Do you like him?
Me: What?!!!! how did it come to your mind that question?
Kid: nothing I just want to know because my dad is single and you are single and you are so caring to us... you will be a good mom.
Me: Oh thank you if that is a compliment
Kid: what if my dad likes you?
Me: (laughs)(eyes are big) really?
Kid: what if ?
Me: lets see....

Pero deep in my heart kilig nanaman ang lola niyo! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

There was this little girl that I like much because she looks like Audrey Hepburn.

Kid: Wow! you look so beautiful with that dress
Me: oh thank you (pero parang di naniniwala)
Kid: you dont believe dont ya?
Me: Smiles
Kid: You do. You are pretty.

Another little girl look like Pinky Amador naman... and she said

Kid: I love you. I hope you will be with me forever
Me: heart melts

There is this 9-year old boy
Kid: Miss I'm giving you flowers
Me: Oh thank you but what's the occassion?
Kid: nothing! but I want you to be girlfriend because you are beautiful inside and out
me: Thank you (nag-isip.. aba! meron na siyang nalalaman na ganon?!?!)

Actually marami pa yan, kaya lang ang hirap i-remember nung iba...ito yung nagstick sa mind ko hanggang ngayon because it make smile everyday of my life.








A New Neighborhood For You


front facade from turning right to la paz st.
front yard
back yard with deep well water machine
side pool
side lanai
garage
3 rooms, 1 room is with own toilet and bath and the other 2 were sharing the common toilet and bath.
living room, dining and kitchen
I am posting to sell this house.Its neighborhood is full of retirees and the place is really quiet. All you can hear are the tweets of the different birds flying around in the morning 'til afternoon.

The area is 280 square meters and the floor area is 140 square meters. They are open to foreigners who wish to reside in the Philippines with their Filipina wives and usual the sale is also open for locals like us who wish to reside in a well-known biggest  subdivision at the South - BF Homes.

The owner is a family of 5. Happy family of adults. As life gave them new discoveries and new places to reside due to new careers and new environment to raise a family as well as with their new business venture in Trece Martires Cavite, going back and forth from Trece Martires to BF is like a "far, far, away land" for them to journey on a daily basis. Just imagine how much "gas" they will have to pay every day? For practical reason and decision even it is a "heartbreaking" for them because the kids grew here and the house was the only witness of their achievements in their lives. They have decided to let go of their home hopefully to a good buyer.

Something to Thank For

While riding the van going home to Manila, sleepy? oh yes, however, I've realized something that for the many years my life I kept on complaining (yung bang pagod ka na sa pagod na sa buong day mo ,masakit ang paa etc...). As I travel alone, it gave me peace of mind and the time to mull over my life and thought that God was good to me. He made me lucky to experience a lot for the past 35 years of my life.

At 26, He made me fulfill my dream (when I was a kid) to be an Early Childhood Teacher. And guess what! I enjoyed it for 9 years.

Then at 28, He made me feel how was to be loved. I was loved by the children I've taught as well as their parents. It's like I am part of their family. Then, I felt how be loved seriously as in a relationship. But because the getting-to-know-together was only half-baked it did not push through.
However, the feeling how to be loved by the person you love so much is the bestest feeling ever in the world. It's like you cannot explain how happy the feeling was. Imagine, even with his status in life, the feeling was the same. It is just like we were in highschool. Kulang na lang may bumatok sa amin at sabihin, "Pucha! ng tatanda niyo na,, nagpapacute pa rin kayo!"

At my 30, with my loyalty and honesty in where I work, I was given an opportunity to be a part of the company at an early age. And I experienced to receive an annual net income of the company. OMG! the money? oh yes! nakalift up ng feeling.Nakakatuwa na Pucha! di pala ako LOSER sa tingin ko!

At 34, He gave me a house. With a happy family. A Family that laughs and jokes with each other. Like friends. A family that supports you all the time in your ups and downs in my life.

At 35, He let me feel the feeling how to be working in International company. Which I did enjoy because of the different people I met there.

At 36, when He found out that I was so stressed with the life I had, He let me rest and enjoy my days seeing the sun and just the feeling of how may I rich woman will plan her day from morning 'til evening.

At present, all I can say is THANK YOU GOD and I ADORE YOU. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE THINGS YOU MADE ME EXPERIENCE, because without all these, I may not learn from it.I pray and I ask that at on this day forward, that I may start my day always thinking how beautiful my life is than how bad it was. I wish that everything will be okay and back to normal like what you have given me and hoping that a good love will find me. Because, I did have everything already except for that right love and a comfortable-relax life.

I never thought that I was at that level on where a lot would envy me but I did not think of that. Instead, I thought of how miserable my life was with all the hardships I was into.

I guess many of us are just like me, they focus more with the bad feelings what life gave them instead of the new discoveries that life brought to them.

How about you, how will you start your day tomorrow? will you start it the way I did? Thanking Him through and through with all the blessings you received and achieved or will still keep on complaining how miserable you are with your life?

START NOW. Change starts within us.

10 ways how to be happy being S-I-N-G-L-E.

Madaling sabihin pero mahirap kapag ikaw na ang nasa sitwasyon. True. Madaling sabahin para sa mga single na kasama pa ang pamilya nila sa kaniya-kaniyang bahay. pero pag nag-sosolo ka na, kung may maganda kang work no problem sa payment ng facilities...your main problem will be kausap at boredness. Lalo na kung di ka sanay na walang kausap. at halimbawa sociable kapa. Dun papasok ngayon na "Ah! ganito pala ang buhay ng mga matatandang dalaga! sh@*^%! nakakaloka! 

Sabi nga ng nakararami, "Experience is the best teacher!" Gosh! totoo siya no joke! And with that, I want to share all the things that made me survive the "loneliness" of being a single. 

1. Kausap - para sa mga tulad ko na mahilig ng may kakwentuhan, since you're alone at home, you can talk to your dog if you want, pero be sure to be discreet, kasi baka sabihin ng kapitbahay mo nasisiraan ka na. And make it a point that you join groups kahit sa kapitbahayan lang para di ka nababato. Pagtawag rin sa mga friends or relatives locally and abroad can make good things too! Ma-ee-enjoy mo yung every moment at the same time bonding na rin. TIME. 

2. Household chores - kung kaya pa ng powers mo, make yourself busy with your assignments at work kung meron man o household chores. I bet you, for some time you will be proud of yourself that you feel you're like wonder woman, kasi sanay na sanay ka sa mga chores na ito. 

3. Music - Sabi nga ng Uncle ko, if you feel bored, listen to good music, later on sumasayaw ka na o kumakanta. 

4. Watch feel good movies - yes! something positive mamaya lang kinikilig ka na and you will never forget the good scene that made you giggly. 

5. Walk the Dog - para ka lang din nag wawalk ng baby sa stroller sa cute. Who knows maka-meet ka pa ng gwapong nag-jojogging. 

6. Eat Out - ke Mini Stop lang yan, Mc Donald's or talagang fine dining --kung kaya ng budget, aba! e sa una siguro you will feel awkward alone, pero later on you will find out your enjoying every moment of yourself being alone. 

7. Exercise or Play an instrument - Oh yes! since swimming is what I know ever since it's like I went back to my old me. Swimming. Refreshed ka pa sa init ng summer at magiging healthy ka pa. And since I know how to play piano, I do it once in a while. I play songs that I know. 

8. Shop or Window shopping - Lahat naman tayo favorite yan eh diba! Magugulat ka na lang OMG! gabi na pala, shempre matutulog ka na lang sa pagod. 

9.  Enjoy the gift of Nature - Grabe! nung kasagsagan ko bilang employee sa mga different International Schools. Hindi ko na nakikita ang araw. Sabi ko nga sa sarili ko Pucha! anak ba ako ni Dracula? Kaya nung na-try kong maglakad sa isang park within the area kung saan ako nakatira, tapos nag-apak sa grass, tapos nakikita ko ang fluffy clouds and clear weather at araw at feel na feel ko ang hangin... Wow! Thank you Lord na lang ang lumalabas sa bibig ko many times. 

10. Play and Laugh and Blog- Play with your nieces or nephews or little kids of your friends. They are a big help. Masarap tumawa ng umiiyak ka na sa kakatawa. And to note everything i-blog who knows may ma-learn ang readers mo.

If you are going to do the addition of all these.. iisa lang siya lahat.. ika nga "BE PRODUCTIVE!" lagyan mo na lang ng konting sprinkle of love. Para may glow diba? O siya sa uulitin. See you next time!

Are we suppose to put LIMITS to our "Yaya's or househelps"?


Kailangan ba natin talagang magbigay ng limit sa ating mga yaya o ate sa bahay? Noong maliit pa ako, lagi kong tinatanong si mommy, "Ma, bakit yung mga ate nila Auntie eh naka-uniform?, bakit iba yung food nila sa kinakain natin? bakit natutulog sila sa mga maliit na rooms kesa sa tinutulugan natin? etc....etc.. ang lagi lang sagot ni mommy noon, "Kasi anak yun ang rules ng Auntie mo". Pero siyempre marami pa rin akong tanong na bakit, para di na siya mahirapan sumagot ang isasagot niya na lang, "Sigh, ask your Aunt na lang". 

Wala akong pagkakataon matanong si Auntie kasi busy siyang tao. Pero one time ng umuwi yung isa ko pang Auntie galing U.S. since mga successful na matatandang dalaga sila, nagkaroon sila ng parang "slumber party" at sinama nila ako. Doon ako nagkaroon ng opportunity na bakit ganoon ang mga yaya o ate niya sa bahay at para kakong di ata tama. Kawawa naman. Pero ang sagot ni Auntie sa akin "kasi anak, may mga taong pag di mo ipinaalam sa kanila kung ano ang job description nila, minsan di na sila lumalagay sa tama. Bakit naman kawawa? di naman sila pinaparusahan. Kumakain naman sila ng tama, ang tinulutulugan nila ay maayos etc. may punto siya doon so di na ako nagtanong pa. Dahil sa feeling ko parang tama na rin naman siya. Kaya lang naman nasasabing kawawa di lang kasi ako sanay sa ganoong pagpapalakad. 


One time, habang kumakain ako sa isang tindahan sa dati naming tinitirahan, nagulat ako ng may isang payat na babae na may kasamang parang foreigner na teenager na sumusugod sa katabing bahay ng kinakainan kong tin


Yung isa namang kaibigan ko, ang ate na ito ay parang 20 years na sa kanila. Pero literally, yung ibang years eh nung buhay pa ang lola niya. Nabuking na lang niya isang gabi na may tinatagong affair ang daddy niya at si yaya. Oh my God! diba? at di niya alam kung ilang years na o kung paano niya sasabihin sa mommy niya at mga kapatid niya. Dumating ang panahon na kailangan ng malaman, sinabi niya, pero ang worst dun, pin
dahan. Sabi niya " P***** ina mo! lumabas ka jan! ang kapal ng mukha mo! mang-aagaw ng asawa! Hayup!" .. Di ko na nalunok ang kinakain ko sa pagkagulat at lalo na ng makita ko kung sino ang babaeng yun. Aba si Tita B pala. Nanay ng bestfriend kong half-baked pinoy half-baked kong Aussie. Nawala na ang pagkagulat ko ng umiiyak na silang mag-ina. And imagine! ano ginagawa nila dito e hindi naman sila dito nakatira kundi sa ibang bansa. Nang malaman ko ang tunay na kwento, aba! nainis rin ako. Imagine, ang bait ni Tita B. Itong kapitbahay na ito ay tinanggap niya sa bahay niya doon sa ibang bansa para may matirhan at magkaroon ng stepping stone sa magandang buhay tapos ang naging kapalit noon ay.. oh well alam niyo na. Worst, nagkaanak pa. At para sa kapalit ng accomodation niya, tumulong-tulong siya sa bahay na parang nanny. 

Isang beses naman, nakita ko ang pag-ka bitch ng isang yaya na di pagsunod sa pinsan ko. Andiyan ang nagdabog, nagtapon ng plato at sumagot ng pabalang. At kung maka comment at butt in sa kwentuhan ng amo ..walang patumangga. alabas na ginagawan niya ng kwento ang daddy niya at si yaya. Pero buti na lang lumalabas yung katotohanan nung nagtago na si yaya at di nagpakitang muli. Yun nga lang magulo na ang pamilya nila. 

Doon ka narealize yung sinabi ng Auntie kong sumakabilang buhay na. Tama pala siya. Hindi sa kinakawawa mo sila pero yung pinapaalam mo lang sa kanila na ""oopss, dito ka lang, di ka pwedeng lumagpas sa kung ano man ang trabaho mo". Siguro kung itong mga kilala kong ito ay naging ganoon katulad ni Auntie, di siguro nangyari sa kanilang mga buhay yung ganoon. 


O diba? siguro nga dapat na ganoon. Pero dapat andun pa rin yung kabaitan at pag respeto sa kanila bilang tao.

A Family that TRAVELS together STAYS together

Yipee! summer na naman. One thing about my dad's family side is yung palaging meron lakaran kapag walang pasok at available lahat. Di man siguro richie rich ang family namin to go abroad pa as in "all-together", pero yung idea na sama-sama kami at masaya! Asaran, lokohan, tawa lang ng tawa hanggang sumakit ang mga panga. Bonding na walang patumangga nga raw sabi ng iba. 
It all started kay Lola. Dati Pansol lang maligaya na kami. Pero lumipas ang panahon, mas na-eenjoy namin ang beach with pool and of course yung mga private resorts para solo niyo lang ang area. Traveling raw ay magastos. Yes! pricey at times, pero yung ligaya ng bawat isa di mo mababayaran. Yung ngiti sa face at sa puso. Boom! 

Stays together? oh yes! na kahit malalayo na kami sa isa't-isa may connection pa rin. Hindi yung mag-kamag-anak nga pero parang di magkakilala. Shucks! parang di ko keri ang ganoon. 

Bakit di niyo i-try sa family niyo? I bet you, everybody will be happy at lalaking parang magkakapatid ang magpipinsan. Kailangan lang na merong isa na mag-cocoordinate. Kasi yung costing and yung division ng payments. 

Bonfire sa Baguio last January, O diba? may hotdog and marshmallows pa yan na binili namin ni Shella sa palengke
Kahit may fear of height, go pa rin wag lang titingin sa baba! hahahahaha
Mudslide in Caliraya with our bunsong pinsan, Miguel
O diba? breakfast sa kalye habang asa banyo sila ng petron
Fantasy World in Tagaytay... feeling Cinderella kami eh
See! para kaming magkakapatid. Mga babies yan ng mga cousins namin. Ang cute no!
Pag masaya...magaan dalhin ang problema
Na kahit sa elevator e sumeselfie pa rin!
Isang bus! Yeah Isang bus na puro magkakamag-anak
Mga discoveries namin na katulad nito ( haaha costume yan nung artistang nag-shooshooting that time)
 Island hopping
tulad ng ganito rin ...wow!
Mga tagong batis na kami lang ang nakakita
tagong island na walang tao
pinaka masarap sa lahat bonding with kids... chicoy is enjoying it!


So pano? hanggang dito na lang muna! This May 20-21 we will have another adventure. Kasama kayo sa adventure naming ito! See you on my next post!

Yummy Suman

I am not a fan of suman literally, however, when I was offered to try to eat a piece of it one time, I can say it to everybody face to face without being bashful that "wahoo! I can now eat suman" and take note: I cannot stop eating it and become addicted to it. I don't know if it is the suman or the latik that makes me to eat more....more.... and more! 


The good thing about this suman is that they are so affordable and you can bring it abroad. The regular suman is 40 pesos while the vacuumed one (good for bringing abroad) is only for 50 pesos. All sumans are with latik and they go in pairs. Extra latik is 5 pesos each. 

Try it sometime! I can assure you that you will keep on coming back and call us for more!

regular -40 pesos/pairs

Happy Parents---Happy Children! Join the Kids Lab

For many years a lot of parents were happy of what Kids Lab have shared to their children.
This is a new tutorial area that offers academic enhancement for gradeschool and highschool, getting-kids-ready-for-school program, ESL for foreign students who still want to improve their basic conversational English. Starting this May, they will be opening their doors to on-call basis speaking engagements about Personal development training etc. anything under Human Resources Training as well as event specialist or an emcee for your different events.

Kids Lab started since 2011 as home-service tutorials only in the afternoon when kids were dismissed from their different schools.Last school year, they started to entertain little children from different schools for tutorial services in their area. It may look so residential to a lot of parents who visit, but the idea of making the little children feel that they are already home is a best thing for tired students after school. 

Little children can come in their home clothes and slippers bringing along their huge bags with books and important materials and or course their snacks. Once scheduled, you will be given your time slot to arrive and pick-up. Most students who stayed with them, had a good performance in school after all the worries of their line of 7's. For those who need to maintain their honors--- stayed first honors in their schools. Cool right? Unbelievable for some, but why don't you give it a try this coming school year.

Catch this!!!!! ---Some parents extend the time of their child's tutorials into daycare-babysitting if they have important meetings and or if they have dates and there are no nannies around. You can ask details from Kids Lab and the parents once booked and scheduled. (five of Kids Lab students do that...one scottish kid, and some filipino kids and one celebrity daughter)

Are you wondering if the teacher is qualified and or you can trust? yes, she isTeacher K. she has been in the early childhood for 9 years. 5 years in grade school and highschool teaching, 1 year and still going on in college teaching.She was awarded as The Florence Nightingale and the Night Owl for super caring and loving teacher and still productive beyond office hours in the previous International School she worked with. Once you meet her, you will find her soft-spoken and you will be able to vibe that she is really close to little children. 

This coming school year Kids Lab will be offering the following:
  • Academic Enhancement (Home-based or home service) 
  • ESL 
  • Reading and Writing Improvement 
  • Getting-ready-to-go-to-school program for  (2years-3years old)
  • Speaking Engagements for Human Resource Training and Events
