SuperMOM in Training

last night, i've read a few inspiring stories that i thought were too beautiful and inspiring not to share. some of you (who have read my posts) might have noticed that most of my past entries were grounded on life's anxieties and worries. some were even focused on complaints and (unnecessary) rants. take for example this post . but now, after some inspiring stories and posts from one of the most inspiring preacher i know, i've come to really accept and believe a well-preached and known fact: happiness is, and always be, a CHOICE. no matter what you have or where you are or what you are or whatever life throws at you, the choice to be happy is totally yours . and under any circumstance you can be happy if you allow yourself to feel it. lemme tell you story... ------- One morning, a woman was sad when she faced the mirror. She discovered she only had 3 strands of hair on her head. Suddenly, she smiled. “Today,” she said, “I’ll braid my hair!” And after doing so, she walked o...

wanna keep these on the record. at least i'll have a reminder in black and white. 1. save . ive had this savings account that i wanted to dedicate for emergency/child fund. i did saved up for a moment, but before i know it almost all the money's gone. better start saving up again ASAP. 2. pay debts i have credit card debts. im not ashamed to admit it. (well, slightly. ) you can't blame me. im a single mom and my pay sucks. sometimes i ran out of cash. it happens. and it happens a LOT. so where do you think i ran to? the magic card . but im gonna pay off those debts before its too late. hopefully. 3. lose weight, be healthy, stay fit again, im a single mom. and my baby is two years old. and i can't even begin to imagine if something not good will happen to me. gotta do it. and besides, a lighter and sexier me looks much better right? :D okey. that will be all for NOW . il get back to you when i can think of some more. as if these 3 are not enough... :D goodluck to me!

i always blab about the things i love about being a mom and the things that changed when i became one. but i realized, all this time i've been brushing off the things that i missed and missed out . the things that i should be doing, the things that i could've done, and the things that i could do if i didn't become one. one of these things is traveling . every now and then i hear stories from relatives, friends, classmates, and acquaintances about their journeys around the country and around world. they show off pictures, videos, souvenirs and memories from these travels. some of them get to work at far and foreign places, experiencing other cultures, meeting other people, learning new things, exploring new things, experiencing anything and everything... living their lives . then i look at myself. i think of the things i have done things that i haven't accomplished things that ive wanted to do places that ive wanted to go experiences...

you know how some people say that in every breakup there's always a winner and a loser? maybe there really is. sometimes you feel--and you just know-- that you ARE the luckiest and happiest person on earth. and it feels like you did win. but on some days when shit happens, you just feel otherwise. sadly. this is one of those days. shit.

alright. i don't know when . or how . but i know i'll get it started. and im gonna get it started SOON . so please, just stay with me. coz trust me, im gonna need ALL the help (and encouragement) i can get.

isn't he adorable? :D

a lot fresher, right? i know, i know. his hair is a bit messy on that shot. he just finished doing some dives and flips on our bed. hence, the messy hair. but if he was behave, you can see that the haircut actually fits him. his face looks fresher, chubbier, and more manly (?). oh and, his scratches are starting to heal. i still have to apply some cream though, for them to totally heal. :)
