Time Machine

I got this from one of my Accenture mates and thought it's not only fun to answer but will actually give you a peek of how Iwas like or where I was eons of years ago...:)

20 years ago...
I was 6 years old fresh from my accelaration to Grade 1. Promil baby! ;)

10 years ago...
I was 16 years old, a freshie in Ateneo de Manila University, too clueless to understand what the hell is MIS and everyday dreads English 101 (just can't seem to write a coherent paper!)

5 years ago. . .
If my memory serves me right (or was this 4 years ago? hmmm...), I think I just got back from US for my first onshore assignment, hustled between Hartford, Conneticut and Chicago, scared out of my wits as I was living alone, for the very first time, in the only state I think where no Filipino seems to exist!

1 year ago . . .
I was 8 months pregnant, barely able to walk so need to work from home, anticipating and at the same time dreading labor pains, scared out of my mind with thoughts that I would soon be responsible for an actual human being! And with the pregnancy books I frequented reading at that time, my paranoia got the better of me and I was actually convinced I was suffering from gestational diabetes making my pregnancy high risk. Paolo had to hear me get all praning, praning everyday...Hehehe...

Yesterday...
I was suffering from stress over MS Project and trying to reconcile my team's prior pay period adjustment (this is one boring topic so I wouldn't even dwell a second longer on this...hehe). Freaked out that night after finding out our toilet was left unflushed by one of your Dad's catering helpers. Ew, ew, ew! On top of this I was missing you terribly as you were still exiled in loli and ingkong's house until we have our place renovated and workers transferred to a different house. :)

So far this year . . .
I met different Lovellas and saw new sides of her - a terrific mom (or so I like to think :)), a creative jewelry designer, a juggling maniac struggling to balance roles as wife, employee, mom, businesswoman, daughter, sister, friend...I realized I am stronger than I thought, able to mature, toughen up and survive obstacles, challenges thrown my way. From here on, life can only get better! :)

Today...
I saw the initial layout and logo of the Bhei brochure I asked your Tito Jay to make for me. I never realized my products could look that good on paper! Galing! This only made me yearn all the more to finally have the time to go full time on this busines. Haaay....in time, in time, in God's time...:)

Tomorrow...
I will go home to Tandang Sora to visit you, play with you, read you a bedtime story and watch you as you fall asleep. Then once asleep, I will finish the latest orders I got.

In the next year ....
I will have my website launched, close a terrific business deal, continue to be a doting mom to a kulit and taratitat Bea and a supportive wife to Paolo.

In the next minute, I will tag . . .whoever has the time to do this.
