Lola Carmen and Me

I can't believe I'm just few steps away to finishing this training. Almost everyone close tome knows that this is not the line of work that I want take. I remember crying because right after I finished AB-Int'l Studies in college they forced me to take up Caregiving. I gave in and enrolled in a Caregiver Training 2 months after my graduation. I dropped out of class because I really couldn't take it. Haha!

Then after almost three years, I decided to give it another shot. My parents and relatives explained that I just need to finish the training but I don't really need to practice it when our plans push through. I'm so thankful that finally, I will get this over and done with.

Last Friday was our last day for the Elderly OJT. I, together with my classmate Lyn, was assigned to look after Lola Carmen for two weeks. I'm so thankful because Lola Carmen is so nice and cool. She jokes around a lot. She made it easy for me and my partner.

I am surely going to miss taking care of her. I will miss everyone at Sinag Tala Residence Home For Women. I will go back there for sure. I promise to visit them again. :) On Tuesday, we will be rendering our 2-week OJT at We Care. I'm excited to meet the kids!

Hair Matters

When it comes to my hair, I always play safe. Hair check! Last time I had my hair really short? Hmmm, when I was in elementary school! I think I was in second grade? I don't remember if it was my grandmother or my mother who decided that I should have my hair cut short. I was just a little kid so I had no choice but to oblige. I obviously did not like how it turned out. It was actually because of that experience that I don't ever want to make a dramatic change to my hair. I remember how some of my classmates made a not so good comment with my then new haircut. THE hair can actually make you (feel) really ugly or pretty. So hair matters, right? RIGHT??? See, it's always in (almost) the same length. Straight. The only difference I actually make is the fringe. I either have it pulled back, full, side swept or none at all! And my face is asymmetrical (plus big) so yeah. I really don't have that much choice. I don't have the face which is flattering to short h...

Lights. Pretty lights. Oh Christmas Tree! Why so taaalllll?? I started my December right by meeting up with my best friends at the Mall of Asia last December 1! We didn't take much photos because we got so excited catching up. We did not see each other for some time, so when we finally met up that day, kwento galore!  My Bestfriend, Jessica. I love how vain my bestfriend is! We really are best of friends hahaha! I used to be more vain than her, but as of the moment, I think she's more vain than I am! :)) And this is me, of course Top: Oxygen || Pants: Paper Scissors || Wedges:  Payless || Bag: Guess We were with Ymel, our other bestfriend, too but she's pregnant and she didn't want to have her photo taken because she thinks she's too fat. Well she gained weight because she's pregnant! Can't wait to meet Baby Zoey!!

Freed

For a week, I was given a chance to live a life that I wanted to live. I felt so happy. I felt so free. I felt responsible for myself. I did not worry much, in fact, I did not worry at all. Well, except for that one time, but I got it settled  right away. It was really fun. I know I said this already but  I felt really, really, REALLY happy. I've been dreaming of living a life like that and I am really thankful I experienced it. Even for just a short while. But then again, wouldn't it be a lot better if I were given a longer time to enjoy it? Yes, it was tiring. Even exhausting at some point, but if you were to ask, I can totally live a life like that! I would love to re-live that moment over and over again. I still cannot believe how so many things happened and had been accomplished for a week. So many thing had to be done and somehow, everything got settled. There was even an unexpected accomplishment which made everything more worthwhile.  I do not even...
