Womanhood and Everything in Between

I have yet to share what made me so frakkin' busy for the past 9 months of hiatus and here I am announcing my break up with it. (Un)officially, today marks the beginning of my domestication as I choose staying at home to watch after my kids and leave the corporate world where I just started to shine bright like a diamond. Unofficial because I still have to work at home for a few days and maybe visit the office one more time this week for a smoother transition. Other than that, I am officially a stay-at-home mom. Feels great, I tell you! (You can now roll your eyes. Lol.) Although I am not really sure how long this will last, I will surely savor each moment that I will feed, bathe and pamper my kids. I can now play with them all day. And I would be looking forward to our bedtime stories. But alongside with the wonderful things that I am looking forward with the kids, I know my life would never be quiet and easy. I know that there would be more arguments and heart-wrenching moment...

Below is taken from the book of  Point of Retreat by Colleen Hoover . So write. Fail. Get your thoughts down. Let it rest. Let it marinate. Then edit. But don't edit as you type, that just slows the brain down. Find a daily practice, for me it's blogging every day. And it's fun. The more you write, the easier it gets.  The more it is a flow , the less a worry. It's not for school, it's not for a grade, it's just to get your thoughts out there. You know they want to come out. So keep at it. Make it a practice. And write poorly, write awfully, write with abandon and it may end up being really really good. Now I don't have to be afraid to write everything down. Just like what it said, it may end up being really really good. =) Keep writing folks!

I was in deep thoughts yesterday (naks!), thinking why my posts became few and far between. I had the answer this morning while I was in a bus holding on to my dear life as the bus driver made his way like a crazy snake on the busy highway, EDSA. I was pushing myself too much pala. I was trying so hard to be a blogger that I am not. Don't get me wrong mga mare. I love how the other bloggers manage to make kwento of every tidbits of their lives. And I want that, too. Pero kahit madaldal ako in real life, I find it hard to put into words everything I have in mind. But I'm working on it. I dream of the mouth-watering foods that food bloggers post every now and then. But I can't be a foodie blogger. That's it. Admitted! I can't snap pictures everytime we dine out. I lack the passion for food photography. And I only have two adjectives to describe the food I eat, (1) masarap and (2) hindi masarap. =) I tried, and I failed. But I'm still going to try some more. Ju...

Tons of bloggers in the whole world will definitely agree with me once I stated my reasons why I so love blogging. And I know this is not the only post regarding this topic. Most of the bloggers I know have openly shared their motivations as well. When I was younger, I kept a diary to myself. I wrote poems, short stories and daily inspirations. As well as all the troubles I'm into, my crushes and my secret relationship. But having an inquisitive mom, my diary was no secret to her, thus my adventures and escapades as a teenager. Surely, as a teenager who was very much curious of my surroundings with my planned escapades well written in a diary, I always get busted. But nowadays, with the help of technology, I am now into this blogging thing which is my online journal, I can easily get away from my nosy-not-techie mom. Oh uh, I forgot, I am no longer a teenager pala, I am already a married-grown-up woman with two adorable kids. So, no more misadventures for me. Ok, enough intro. ...

I accidentally hit the delete button earlier in the Blogger dashboard, that's why this is a repost. I feel compelled to do so for my readers (assuming me, again =) ). As I have been stalking  following tons of blogs, I have always noticed the Bloglovin follow button at the sidebars. But I kept on ignoring it, I thought it was just one plain button. Until I decided to click away and find out what the fuss is all about. And boy! I just had one amazing experience! (I may be overstating a little, my writing skill is in a test drive, but don't get me wrong as well, I am really having fun with Bloglovin =) ) Bloglovin helps our blog hopping more organize and easy. Though it may not be the only blog reader available, I just can't turn my back on the lovely follow button that we can choose from. Hehe! Oo na, 'yun talaga ang major kong reason! Lol! If you haven't tried Bloglovin yet, click here and have a happy blog reading! You can now also follow me in Bloglovin! ...

Sa sobrang dami kong naiisip na i-blog and i-share, wala akong masimulan. Hehe. I don't know where to start. Waaahhhhh!!!  Mahirap rin pala talaga to put into writing yung mga thoughts mo. Kahit sobrang madaldal kang tao, pag isusulat mo na, mahirap pala. Hindi kasi ako nagsasave sa draft folder. I want it straight from my mind to yours para mas may feelings. (Ayan tuloy, wala akong masimulan.) Wish me luck guys! Sana I'll be able to put into writings na everything I have in mind. Promise. I'll write soon with more sense na.
