Moving Forward


My friend is worried on her upcoming written driving test next week.  She is currently so busy in school now and she is having doubts if she could pass the test on time so she won’t have a hard time commuting going to her school and then to her day shift job  and then back home.  So she has all the right reasons to get her driving license the soonest.  But she needs a guarantee that there will be no problem about it, her friend from work gave some advice to take the dmvcheatsheets driving test and it will guarantee her that she can sit back and relax that all will be well.  She’s having a tight schedules ahead now that the school year has started and she wanted to do it right the first time.


But she needs to prepare for and her friend recommends the interactive test drive to help her focus on the day of the exams.  But I know how she wanted this.  We always talked about it over the phone and we encouraged her that she can do it not only because she needed her driver’s license but we always believe she can make it.

Happy Birthday, Mama!

We celebrated our Mom’s birthday yesterday, her official birthday falls at weekdays so we all decided that we should celebrate it at weekend so we will all be complete and that no one can back out from the sharing we agreed amongst us (ha-ha!)
But Mom’s doesn’t want cake anymore, from all the cakes she tasted every single occasions in our family, so when she saw a cake, she automatically declines to eat it. We are thinking of what can we buy that we cans still put some candles on it. And then my officemate reminds me if I am still willing to buy Mom an enormous siopao I am asking him to buy for me long time ago, so basically, that solves my problem in the cake area because the siopao is so big as a cake!
My mom has an epic face when she saw her birthday siopao! She never thought we will still celebrate her birthday and she was so happy.  We just ordered her favourite foods and noodles and we all talked about that awesome siopao we just ate in one sitting.  But above all that, I saw that our Mom is happy that despite of us being that busy in our own lives, we still have time to be together on her special day.  Of course! We will give her the best, because she’s the world’s best MOM! Happy Birthday, Mama!!

Mye Rainy Birthday!

I admit I was kind of depressed that my birthday falls in a no typhoon but with heavy rains that lasted for days that makes the Philippines capital and the nearby provinces in a virtual water world, again.  The heavy rains even surpassed the tragic event bought by a massive typhoon called Ondoy years ago.  So what makes it more depressing?  I am so sick and my ears are in pain, I have fever because of that and I can’t do anything except drink my medicines and watched TV (that makes me sick even more).  Hubby managed to call a noodle delivery for my pansit and yes, I slightly felt that oh, it’s my birthday! 

But my JaLec online friends whose not here in the Philippines surprises me with a dozen beautiful red roses with a cute teddy bear and a cake that was delivered by super dripping wet courier and I can only help them by giving them tip for a coffee to keep them warm.  But most of all, it was delivered on the time that I was chatting to them on the YM conference and I had a teary eyed knowing they did that even though we haven’t seen each other personally.  They even made a birthday video for me and sent it through my photobucket account.  I was so blessed with wonderful online friends and they bring out the sunshine in the gloomy weather of supposed to be my big day.  I can never thank them enough for that surprises and I owe it them for trusting me.  What a birthday! :)

Ear Problems

Another year will pass and I another year will be added to my age but I never feel that old because I always thought that I am young at heart and that will remain forever ( ha-ha!) come on, this is my day and let me be with the wish. J

But actually, I was down again with my ear infection, I felt this since last week and I thought I can stop it by some medicines I used to take during those days.  But it persists last night and I had high fever and I asked for a traditional massage to soothe my aching body but to no avail, the pains was persistent and I don’t know what else to do.  I tried to ease the pain by putting hot compressed on it but it only last for some minutes and I told myself this is not good, oh my God; I’m going to get sick again on my birthday.  I’ve been like this every year and I can’t believe that it will ever happen to me all over again and this time, my ever dreading ear infection.

I don’t know why my ears are so sensitive to viruses, bacteria or whatever but no one in my family had this but me.  Not that I thought this is hereditary but why me? I really wanted to enjoy my leave vacation and now I am lying for hours in bed taking antibiotics and dropping some otic solutions 3x a day to my swelling ears, oh my! And mind you, I can’t hear that much.  Good thing I have my friends online who I can talk to and wishing me well.  Or else, I will be in my depressing mode again the whole day.  I hope it will be over soon.
