A Filipina at heart, from the city of smiles in the sugarlandia of Central Philippines. I was born in the year of the tiger during the mermaide month.
A mother of two kids, our invaluable treasures, Colleen who just turned 17 last July and Alexandre who is 14 years of age. United to my Romeo for more than 18 years, life has been a blissful one. He is from the city of light and he means that truly to us.
Juggling my career, motherhood and wifehood is a gift yet I miss my being with them at all times. Taking care of them in timelss moments is one of my greatest achievements. But in the course of our expatriate life, being a working mom will always be a challenge.
It has been ages before I logged in again here. I truly miss this activity but I did not get the luxury of time to be in here. Somehow, I miss sharing with you our thoughts, our wishes to all your special days but I do pray all my friends are having the best of life irregardless where you are in the world and what keeps you busy.
For us, we are in the season of tennis since september, no picture taken yet as my computer is already overloaded with tennis photos:) But Alex and Steph are on the run not only for the balls but towards the final. Our team so far, won all our matches, we did 4 up to date. The forthcoming matches are getting tougher, we have to stay strong as a team hoping we can reach the semi if not the final.
Just came back last sunday from my trip to Philippines. It has been a marvelous time with my mom. She is growing older but happier. I spent a quality time with my sisters as well during my entire stay in Bacolod. On the academic side, another student was added in the family. Am doing ExMBA this semester. My classes are only 3 times a week but study time is taking a toll on my time table, nevetheless, I enjoy being a student despite of the long hours of reading my textbooks. I can't just go in class without any preparation. That's a principle. I get to gear up to my study habits. While Alex keep up with his academic achievements at bay, he is coping up with time for basketball, soccer, tennis and volleyball. At last, volleyball season is over. Colleen is starting her university days. She is taking up medicine. I will be posting a special post on my daughter soon.
Christmas season is coming. Here in Dhaka, weather starts to be cooler, a raclette dinner is awaiting for guests to come.
All for now and hope to see you soon.
Hugs and Kisses to all my wonderful friends out there who have been thoughtful all thru my absence. Thank you so much guys, miss you all!!
Phoebe
