Ever since the pandemic happened and just this year when my mom-in-law-died and then the delta variant scaring the whole country out and the government, thus putting us in ECQ once again, this creeping sadness within me seems to be in full action again. And whenever I feel it, I tell myself to fight it. You may be feeling it too and you know what, we really need to fight the sadness, these things in our mind which take away our joy. As I struggle this morning, I did these steps to lift my spirits and help me remember my Why’s....
I’ve been hearing about collagen for many years, how it can help slow aging and it’s so many beautifying effects. However, I’ve always been not so keen in taking in supplements, even multi-vitamins, that much. When the pandemic happened, I knew that I need to be more pro-active when it comes to achieving good health. After all, I’m not getting younger, my kids are getting older and my career as a work at home mom has been demanding a lot more from me. So to satisfy my curiosity about collagen, I searched...
I had this problem today when the CTRL button on my keyboard is acting weird. Whenever I click it, it goes directly to the browser. CTRL button is very important for me because I always copy-paste when working. Maybe I clicked or typed something accidentally which triggered a change or update on my keyboard or computer settings.

Is your child entering college soon? How do you feel? If you will ask me, I’m half-excited and half-anxious. I’m anxious because I fear about my daughter’s safety and of course, I fear about the cost. Although we were saving for a long time for my children’s tuition fees, you still wouldn’t know the total cost of it until they are there. Although my kids are enrolled in a public Science high school, there were costs involved when they make projects or when they go to school trips and so much more, not...

Writing this piece is actually a struggle for me. Why? Because I know that this will trigger emotions that I don’t like to feel. I haven’t talked about these feelings to anyone and this is the only time that I am pouring it out. But I realized that maybe, somewhere out there, there’s a mom like me, or someone, who feels the same and that if I’ll be able to help just by telling my story, then I’ll be happy to take it as something as my payback to everyone and everything that helped me to get through these year-and-a-half...
