COLBY'S DAY OUT

This morning, around 6 or 7 am I think, I treat our dog named Colby, out.


Before we hit the morning road, I prepare a small plastic bag (Sorry for the anti-plastic group. Peace) and 2 pieces of old newspaper (Pandakot o pambalot lang talaga ang isa sa mga kinahihinatnan ng lumang dyaryo). For what? For Colby's poopsy. Then I put what I called "poop kit" in my shorts pocket. Here we go!


It's not Colby's first time to go out of our house. In fact, every afternoon, I walked her around the street near our home. But this morning, it's quite a long walk. We go beyond the Forbidden Forest (Harry Potter?! Hahahah) She's afraid of new things she just saw. The speedy tricycles, the King of the Road - jeepney (PUJ), swerving motorcycles, and most of all ASPIN (Asong Pinoy) dogs or what most of us call them "askal" (Asong Kalye). ASPIN dogs barked at her, maybe to say hello or just snarl at her. To her fright, it made Colby snug at my legs. So I slightly pull her leash to walk forward then off we go!


Next stop, we came to Lola Linda's house for a visit. Lola is very delightful to see Colby growing up from a small cuddly puppy to a medium built puppy. Yes, she's still a puppy. She still have those sharp pointed teeth but eventually it will change to a adult dog teeth. Lola said Colby had a nice wavy fur. Then I had a sumptuous breakfast. Pinoy's all time favorite - HOT PANDESAL. And hot choco on the side.


After the breakfast and few chats with Lola and brisk walk with Colby, we head back home.


That morning exercise is a good idea and I think Colby was thankful to be out in the world. It made her alive and a percent healthier. Because just like us, humans, dogs or even other animals needs a stretch.

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...

LDR

WARNING: EMOTIONAL BLOG POST AHEAD. PROCEED WITH CAUTION. Okay.. Now that your reading this might as well finish it. Hahaha *hug* From November 19 up to this day, was all gloomy. Everyday I am gathering all the emotional strength I got to get through the day. We have video calls and messages thru social media apps, but not seeing her, being with her in flesh was depressing.  K went abroad to work to fulfill her goals for her family and as she said, for us. I know it's for the better and I understand it but of course I can't help it to miss her.  I am not into LDR (long distance relationship). I want a close proximity with my partner because I'm a touchy-feely person. But the moment I met and love her, I know I have to endure this kind of relationship even before she worked abroad. I can attest now to those posts and articles I read that LDR will test your trust and love for your partner. It will test all your wits end. And I thank the univer...

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...
