About Me: 

My dreams before was so vivid and blurred. I do not have any directions in life that I just want to be part of the world that I could just be in my comfort zone. Taking for granted of what I do in life and it is a vice versa thing.

I thought that I could plan everything and control my environment. Being an only child. I studied at St. Scholastica's College, Manila since preparatory to college. I was a working-student at that time being an Export Merchandiser in training. After finishing college of Bachelor of Science in Commerce, Major in Entrepreneurship. Had a stable job in Sales and Marketing and reached the position of Regional Sales and Marketing Manager in Luzon in a food company.

Hopefully would like back then, to get married at the age of 25. However, it’s beyond my control. In my adolescent life had a relationship of 10 years, we broke up because he has to marry his girl that he gotten her pregnant. I knew him and understood his actions. It is a blessing in disguise that I do not want to be in his wife's shoes. Do the math.

I have to improve myself and start focusing for myself. Thus, I studied again for my second college degree and had a voice recital last my birthday of mine in 2004 at the St. Cecilia’s Hall at St. Scholastica’s College, my alma mater. And staged an original musical play as my thesis, entitled Ang Munting Maya. Thanking God that I have passed my Licensure Examinations for Teachers or LET, last 2008 and graduated in Bachelor of Music, Music Education with Piano Principal, also in the same school.

Currently, I am an educator. I have been teaching for 2 years in high school and 2 years in grade school in subject such as Music, Arts and Physical Education or MAPE, Social Studies, Work Education, Christian Living, Music, Arts, Physical Education and Health or MAPEH. Embed the system of the Montessori way believing that as an educator you could make or break a child. An educator is into service, challenging the young minds.

Either into Commerce or into Education, I really love working. It is hard work. Still, I want to improve myself in all aspects of life. Enhancing my talents and skills and sharing them. Now, I am sharing my thoughts and ideas into writing.

Glad to say also that I am happy with my relationship with Raffy. He really completes me as a woman. He inspires and reminds me of whom I am. He is a good and simple man that I love. He treats me as a Princess or a Queen in his heart. Someday soon, we will be together as husband and wife and the center of our relationship is the Lord.
