Who Am I?

Beautiful. Independent. Devoted.



I am happy. I love my life. I love my current state right now. Although it didn't come easy because I have my own share of struggles and challenges, I am thankful to what I have become in life.

I'm the youngest in the family. I only have one brother who I look up to and became my inspiration to work hard in life. Our family didn't have any riches, in fact, my parents worked hard to send us to school because they did not want us to experience what they have endured in their childhood. I'm thankful for that. I got good education, strived hard to do good in school from grade school down to college. I wasn't the brightest in class but I managed to get very good grades which I am proud of.

But back in high school and college, I also did some naughty escapades. I had no regrets with it. Barkada, night outs, boyfriends! I fell in love and fall out of love at a tender age. I cried like there was no tomorrow when I was hurt but I realized there were still things to look forward to. I valued friendships with a lot of people. I became stronger and learned the ways of life.

After college, I was excited to land my first working job in a telecommunications company. I was ecstatic to spend my own money, to be independent and carefree. I met a lot of good friends again. A year after, I met the man of my life. I am the luckiest girl in the world. I was pampered and loved. I felt blessed. I didn't let him go. Four years after, I got married. I was so happy. I learned a lot of things from him and still learning up until now. I got a will power to become more independent and do the things I want where I am good at. I was working hard to be a good wife. I am always making a conscious effort about it up until now.

I quitted my job, ventured into business. It wasn't easy at first. And I wouldn't say that it became easier. They said if you are an entrepreneur, you have control over your time. But it also means that you should be available 24/7 in order to reap the rewards you want to get.

I was just a wife for 2 years and a half. I thought we won't be blessed with a child. I was so dissapointed. I was turning my back to everyone. Then finally, our first-born came 2005. I felt complete. I was excited and anxious at the same time. I was working hard to be a good mom. Then another bundle of joy came to us unexpectedly a year after. But I embraced this another responsibility whole heartedly. It was tough. Motherhood is tough. I'm not a perfect mother because I am still working hard for it.

I sometimes feel so down, stressed and burned out. I am tired of being busy. Sometimes, I just want to quit but I can't. I just cant throw everything I have planted. Sometimes, I just want to laze around but work calls me to get up and do what is appropriate. Sometimes, I just want to stare in a blank wall and do not think of anything but there are just so many things running in my head. But I am cut to be always-on-the-go. I guess I am used to it. I have always been a fighter.

Mundane things that keep my sanity are shopping and travelling. I want to shop, shop and shop to the max, as if there's no tomorrow! lol! As you know, I love bags. I have special relationships with my bags. I want to travel the whole world. This is my ultimate dream. I want to do this before I die. I want to travel with my whole family. I want my kids to enjoy life as I am enjoying life now.

I know there could still be more challenges to face. I am just holding on to my faith. I am praying to always have one.

I look forward to better tomorrows, to still walk hand in hand with the love of my life, in cuddles of my bundles of joy, in comforts of family and laughters of good friends. What I have now and what I have become, I STRIVED and WORKED hard for it. And I am still continuing to do so for the rest of my life.

I am living up to the subtitle of my blog....

"Witness how I dice my different roles in life because at the end of the day, win or lose, life is still beautiful!

(Sorry, it became too long, i got carried away! lol!)
