Intimidating Indeed

     Staring straightly on the monitor, tapping my fingers against the computer table, taking deep breaths and thinking, will I or will I not?

     That's what i felt before putting up a blog account here in blogger.com. I am indeed and deeply intimidated because first on blogger.com. Blogger.com is largely and widely known for its excellent blog publishing service for professionals, amateurs and aspiring writer like me. I felt I'm no good for this. Second, the bloggers and their blog posts. Yes, I can write but not as good as them. They are seniors, I'm a kindergarten. (Sorry folks for the inferiority complex. Peace. May you not absorb it)

     But this dark thoughts shattered in to the light of enlightenment when my boyfriend told me
"Oo nga eh nakaka intimidate. Pero isipin mo na lang kapag na-intimidate ka ngayon, mai-intimidate ka na habang buhay" (Yes it is intimidating but come to think of it, if you are intimidated now, then you will be intimidated forever)
      The word habang buhay (forever) echoed through my pearl studded left and right ears. He also told me that every one have different strengths and weaknesses. My strength might be a weakness for other and vice versa. And finally, I say,
"Okay... fine... I'll do it."
     Salamat mahal ko! (Thanks, my love!) If not for him, the words he gave, up to now, I'm still staring at the blogger site, thinking twice with cold sweat. And another thing, one great lass professor once told us,
"You cannot please every body"
     She's right. Thanks Ms. G.S. (Initials is used for her privacy)

     Coming up with this kind of blog really takes a lot of guts and creative juices. I guess I have an ample amount of it. I hope this will be the start of an never ending blogging experience for me here in blogger or blogspot and a good start for me.

My Online Journey

A friend and classmate of mine in the person of Jenny Barriga, introduced me a home based online business opportunity that according to her, will help me have a financial and time freedom just using Internet, my Facebook and other social networking sites - Supreme Wealth Alliance (SWA). Before I join, I struggled. I don't have the money to invest in the business opportunity. I almost sold my mobile phone to join in SWA but my brother came to a rescue. He lend me Php 2,500 (equivalent to US$55) and I am so thankful he did. After that, I told Jenny that I already have the money so she instructed to deposit it to bank account of one of the coaches, affiliated to SWA, which is the Tambay Academy. After I deposited the money, I took a picture of the receipt and send it to her as a Facebook message as per her instruction. Then I started doing the business, right at the very same day. I started posting photos, videos, tag friends and so on and so forth without reading the first th...

Busy little bee

These past few days, I've been busy working on my application in a NGO entity. For the mean time, I do volunteer work in that office as I wait for my starting date. I will be a part of the fund raising department and communications group. My work is on contractual basis meaning I will stay for 3 months then if they like my performance, they will renew my contract for another 3 months and so on and so forth. But in the event, they will not renew my contract or if I request it to (maybe), I'll just find another job. That's life. Life goes on. I hope I can handle this job well and will do my very best to handle and face it. :)

Sure-real Moments: Labor Day (Full Version) + Birth Day + Happy-dreadful Day

As I said before it's not the day for the migrant workers, it's the part of pregnancy where all your guts, emotion, finance and bodily strength will be put to a test. Morning of August 18, 2001, I started having the contractions. It felt like its ripping my hips off of my body. I immediately tell it to my Mama and said "Wala pa yan. Kapag sunod-sunod na yan at madalas, manganganak ka na. Lakad lakad ka lang. ( That's nothing. When you feel the contractions more frequent and comes in second, you're on your way. Just walk around.) After hearing my Mama's assurance, I spend my no ordinary day doing light house chores. As the night struck, contractions grew stronger. Can't eat my dinner, can't even sleep. That night was very exhausting. I walk around the living room for nth times while taking deep breaths. I even timed the contractions and write it down to monitor if I was really having getting-ready-to-give-birth contractions. As the night went deeper, t...
