“I’ll do it later”, I still have time...”, “I don’t feel like doing...” these were some of my favorite lines before. I remember those times when I kept hanging things until the last second. There were things that I have to do but I just piled them up, and before I knew it, a whole lot of things were waiting for my attention. How did I overcome this attitude? I am not saying I did overcome this 100% but almost halfway, hahaha. Let me share with you how I did it. I started to make an effort to do little things on a daily basis. I had to stick a note on my computer to remind of the things that I have to do for each day, be it personal, household chores, and paper works like checking and recording my students’ activity worksheets/formative& quarterly tests,, whew! I had to get things done right away. Sometimes when I am so tired, I tried to work everyday so to ensure that I don’t have lot of things to do at weekends. Making an effort, no matter how small like “things to do list” helps in cutting short the superwoman effort that I might need later.

My Filipino Dish Share for Memorial Day
Housemates have been asking me what Filipino dish I have in mind for Memorial Day dinner. So I thought of making quick family meal. I checked what’s inside the refrigerator and I saw chicken, potatoes, green and red bell peppers. With these ingredients and an 8 oz of tomato sauce, I was able to cook sumptulicious chicken afritada for dinner.

Let the Love Begin
( from one of my articles in our school organ D’Eytrian, to remind my kids and my students especially those who are in my facebook )
Love may come in different angles, colors, and packages, but their common denominator is the feeling of happiness that brings out the natural high. The mere sight of your love turns the world upside down. For some, love may cause them to be forgetful. Like for instance, when a certain a guy approaches a gal and ask for something, a girl can’t say anything but ah.. umh..err. They become tongue-tied.
Falling in love is part of growing up. Nobody is exempt. Yet being in love does not always make anyone joyful. There are times when one has to go heartaches and pain. In this cyber age, the phasing is so fast. With the new communication devices, one got an instant boyfriend or girlfriend at one click of the fingertip. Do not be in a hurry. Yah, It’s true that we all need to be loved and accepted. We are longing for someone who gives us tenderness, but I want you to know that romantic love can wait. The right person will come along at the right time.
For the meantime, consider the following important persons in your life that can let your Love begin: First is God, He should be first in your list. God loves us so much that He suffered the most painful death. We have the assurance of His Love no matter who we are. The second person is YOU. Yes. Is that a surprise? Not that I’m telling you to be conceited or to be lovers of self, but it is because loving oneself springs out self-respect. It will be easier for you to say NO to temptation. The third is your FAMILY. Your parents only want the best for you. So, better spare them from unnecessary pain by making your study a priority.
It’s not a really a good idea to get involved in a love relationship at an early age. Focus your mind and attention to God, yourself and your family. There is always time for everything including romantic love. For now, enjoy your teenage years. One day, when you grow old you’ll meet someone God prepares for you and I’m sure that person is the best.

Scenic Sunday

From My Photo Collection
“God’s looking from up above”, this was the first thought that came to my mind when I took this picture using my enV2 cell phone. That beautiful scenery gave me a relief after putting in a hard day at work. 
I can’t help but marvel on how awesome God speaks to us in any form. As the heaven declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands, Psalm 19:1
