Happiness

I'm staying home today due to the inclement weather. I actually woke up early, ate my breakfast, slept some more, took a bath, dressed up, drove to work, er, to the first Ayala gate actually. It rained so hard I decided to turn back. I didn't want to risk being stalled in some unfamiliar place due to the flood. So I went home. :)

I've been feeling kinda emotional the past few days. I'm having bouts of envy, jealousy, insecurity, etc. But I'm feeling better now. To avoid these negative vibes, I'll try my best to write about something/someone that makes me happy everyday. Since this is my first post, allow me to write more than one:


  1. I'm happy everytime we have the morning meeting at work because that means I've been in the office for an hour and I only have 8 hours left before I go home.
  2. I'm happy when it's lunch time because half the day's over.
  3. I'm happy when it's 5:30 because that means in an hour so, I'm about to see my husband. 
  4. I'm happy when the loony girl near the Makati Police Station changes clothes (I think she changes clothes 3 times a week.). 
  5. I'm happy when the morning shuttle passes by Pasong Tamo because that means I don't need to walk. 
  6. I'm happy when people tell me that they're happy that I'm already connected with the company. 
  7. I'm happy at the prospect of getting an Ipad 2. Hehe.
Guess that would do for now. Hope I'll find time to do this everyday. :)

Dream

I've been feeling tired, sluggish, overwhelmed, worried, etc. the past few days. You know that feeling when your body just seems too heavy to lift early in the morning and you'd rather stay in bed all day. I've been getting some extra minutes of sleep in the morning to make up for it.  It's a vicious cycle. I feel too sleepy at night so I go to bed early. Problem is, I end up waking up at dawn. I check my phone for about an hour then I go back to sleep. Then I feel sleepy again when I wake up in the morning.  This morning was no different. The little boy woke up at around 8. I felt too lazy to get up so I set an alarm for 10 minutes to get a bit of an extension. And as short as that extension may be, that was when Tatay finally visited me in my dreams. A first since he left us in November. A first even after numerous prayers at night for him to come into my dreams to reassure me that he's okay.  We were in Solenad. True Value to be exact. There was a political rally...

Happy Valentine's Day!

The hubby is not big on occasions like Valentine's Day. We normally eat out but we do not have those mushy flowers or celebrations. I have learned not to expect. This year, we're living on a tight budget because I'm giving birth in June. We need to save up so we can give the best to our baby. I usually get him a Valentine's Day card plus a gift if I have money to spare. But this year, I chose to skip the card. (Could have gotten one actually had I remembered, hihi.) I just cooked him his favorite breakfast of bacon, bacon oil fried rice, and sunny side up egg. Then I used cloth table napkins to wrap the utensils. I placed a post-it note greeting him Happy Valentine's Day, which could have found its way to the trash bin by now (I hope not!). Nothing fancy really but it's always the thought that counts. Then I opened Facebook and was bombarded by photos of friends receiving flowers from their husbands or boyfriends. These made me smile - with absolutely no bit...

Homeschool Week 1: You Learn Something New Everyday

We officially started homeschooling this week. It's been okay, so far. Preparation takes a lot of time, especially for an OC person like me. I have a comfortable 3-week buffer so I guess that should make me calm down. But I admit that I am a bit anxious if I can sufficiently explain more complex topics to R. We'll see, we'll see. The sort of broken road that led us to homeschooling deserves its own blog post. But the trainings and actual homeschooling itself have reaffirmed that we made the right decision. Yes, I sometimes feel inadequate. And some nega people around saying elongated Okayyyyyy and Good luuuuuuuucckkkk whenever we tell them R will be homeschooled are not helping at all. But I just keep on telling myself that hey, I can always learn alongside R. I don't need to know everything. If there's something I don't know, we can always research together. I just need to pray for patience and wisdom. And so far, I have really been learning a lot with him an...
