Recent Purchases


This Father's Day of 2011, I decided to grab some good stuffs for me.

First, I had a Samsung netbook. My Lenovo laptop is still dependable like before but I felt the need to buy a smaller version so I can do my work wherever I go. And boy, this Samsung, despite its affordable cost never fails me! I personally love its red and white combination. I am now calling her "Fierce".

Also, I bought an orange XOXO bag. Most of my bags are large so this purchase was special.

Happy Father's Day To Moms!


Since its Father's Day and I could not stress more of how pleased I am to have a loving father at my side, let me take this opportunity to blog about women who bravely accepted the title of being a "mom" and a "dad" altogether. I am one of them, and I know a lot of them.

I am not comfortable talking about my marriage, not because it hurts but because the lack of such "feeling" somehow left me confused. Don't get me wrong, I loved my husband. But later I realized that love alone cannot make the world go round. Thanks for my father who let me realized that girls are supposed to be priced and loved.

So fast forward...

One of the questions I have to deal with when I woke up one day and realized that our marriage is truly over is, how I am going to explain this to my kids? How could I assure them that they are loved even after they were left? Worse, how could I fathom the idea of raising kids alone and still think that everything's going to be alright? Questions frighten me.

Raising kids alone is no joke. Any single mom would agree how difficult it is to ensure that your kid's needs are met while keeping enough time for yourself to ensure that you do not lose your own life along the way. I never perfected the challenge. Somewhere along the way, I always find myself suffering from sickness because of too much working. It is never easy but its worth it.

I was just lucky that my kids were able to adjust with me. Somehow, they were able to accept that this is their family, even though it composes of just a mom, a brother and a sister. They take care of me as much as I take care of them. Like today, I have this bad flu. I've been suffering from this since Thursday night and boy its really bad! To my surprise, my kids volunteered to be my nurse. They saw a watch which happen to play a song when you press on it, and gave it to me. I just press on it and viola, the two will come rushing at my bedside. They would ask about my needs and make sure they gave them (of course, with their yaya's supervision).

Being a father and a mother at the same time is not easy, but the kids make all the work bearable.

Proud

It was my boy's first day at school. Trife have always been the pampered and cared type of kid. So until this morning, I was really hoping that he won't get uneasy at the new environment. I was even scared when he started to tell me the stuffs he's going to do after he goes home from school. But when the class started, boy he made me really proud! He got his first 3 stars. He participated well and even told his teacher that he's going to bring DVDs tomorrow for the class to watch.

Now, Tifa did the same. When she got home, she told me that she was given a job at school. So I said, what job? Then she started telling me that the job starts with letter M then U follows. Still puzzled, I asked what kind of job is that then she said that she has to look good and behave well. Goodness, she's the muse!
