Cu4tro Cantos

I saw the early evening news one night. There was the usual news on parties debating about Erap’s pardon; some politicians blatantly talking about their desire to run for presidency in 2010 (mahiya kayo sa balat nyo!!!, yung iba dyan, umpisa palang ng termino!)There was also something about Beyonce’s concert. But what got my attention though, is the crime report. The crime watch team chanced upon 2 young Filipinas running restlessly Read More

How I prayed for my husband

I remember how as a young girl, I would wish on a star that someday I may meet the man of my dreams, my prince charming. And of all the good characteristics that I could wish my prince to have, only 2 things mattered; that he is handsome and kind-hearted.

Years later, I fell in love. Went broken-hearted then fell in love again. Went broken-hearted AGAIN then fell… Oh, you know the cycle.

The relationships I had before I met my husband were of weak foundation. Those were years of on and off tango with uncertainty; of good and bad times; of hoping and some more hoping. Each relationship, I would hope that the guy would be the one.

I was browsing through this blog’s most popular posts when I read my hubby’s post about Sexy Filipinas, (yeah, i just read this blog now, I rarely had time to do anything else than work stuff)

The comment about Sexy Mom really got my blood boiling! I think this so-called ‘decent filipino woman’ did not even bother to check out Dine’s site. She would not see a thing in there  that would degrade the Filipina. It’s a blog about a mother, a wife, a woman who feels sexy. There is nothing wrong about feeling sexy. Sam who’s just 2 years old has learned to call me sexy.

What would you if you were a millionaire? Well, I am talking about Philippine Pesos millionaire. What would you do if you won 3-5 million pesos in a lottery or a game show or maybe from inheritance? Just thinking about it is so overwhelming. But here is what I’ll do if I were a multi-millionaire like George Lindemann Jr. For me, being a millionaire means I’ll have a lot of opportunities to help others. I can help my family and relatives better their livelihood. I can help my Baranggay in their projects. I can also help our Church in their charitable works. I would like to help my favorite charity Gawad Kalinga in their aim to build houses for the poor. I’ll buy my own house. I will invest my money in stocks and bonds. I’ll put up my own business, I would probably be in the food business. Take up culinary arts. I’ll save some for my kids education. I’ll save some for my retirement. I’ll save some for a little traveling adventure. Whew, that’s a lot of ‘I will’ and ‘I would’s. Most of all, I will thank God for trusting me with this sum of money, I will thank God for this wonderful opportunity to help myself and others.

Last October 28 we celebrated Ley’s Christening and Sam’s 2^nd birthday at Max’s Restaurant. My grandma (from my mother‘s side) whom we fondly call Mama, gave Sam a birthday card. It said she has lots of gifts for her in the Balikbayan package that she will be sending this November. She migrated to the US 20 years ago and she now lives with my Uncle in LA.
