We were in church today for the Ash Wednesday mass which leads me to the realization that…..I must be dreaming that the 3 of us is stepping on Sydney lands.

I must admit. I love Sydney . I luvvvv it.
Living in the suburbs ( where Agie and Gracy lives) is laid back—-and I could imagine myself gardening at the backyard. The peace is so intense at 530pm —— the rare sound of the birds enjoying the serenity is exquisite it couldn’t escape my ears.

At the backyard, there is a “duyan” and I languidly put my new baby to sleep. Haaaaay…am imagining and dreaming again. Wala ding duyan, drawing ko lang un. hehehhe

Well, if ang aking pagiging dreamy lang ang pa iiralin, well, I could move here next month but much to my dismay, we have to cater for the practical side of life—–and that’s surviving Sydney. Well, based on experience, never pa Nya ako pinabayaan.

Mom in Law. ( sepsep)
For I could pour out anything to her and in return she could pour out anything to me. Money, family disputes, weaknesses- just anything. Of course we had our fair share of misunderstandings in the past- but because of how we become brutally frank- we became the best of what we are today. She is sooo full of life with a young disposition regardless of age. So , when am down and out, I turn to her to share a good laugh and my heart lightens up. She is the kind that doesn’t really care what other people say- she focuses on what is required of her in given circumstances. She is a mother of 4 boys, grandma of 3 , widow and happy!
Her best: Generosity

The Singapore Ladies
I like the way they celebrate womanhood. They go out and really do themselves. Dresses I believe is more sought of here than long pants, slacks, etc. That is the reason why beauty saloon , make up and kakikayan is expensive here- bec…women chase for it! I had a very simple hair cut 2 weeks ago for 16 bucks, gosh- that is 470 pesos. What a fish! I miss getting my nails it’s well deserved manicure and pedicure- although Chuck told me I should go to pamper myself, I just can’t take yet paying around 25bucks = 750 pesos.

Music from Coldplay.
Perhaps, I am a late bloomer in terms of music but yeah- this is my new liking and hooked up to it.

Money.
I know why God gave me the opportunity to earn more this year- I had to give enormously. Chuck and I may not have all the liquidity we need but we surely are on the right track. Give more and you will receive more. Promise..it works for me, just keep generosity alive when you have the means and I don’t guarantee you it will come back like an investment- but i assure you of this overflowing blessing coming in. It could be a mere feeling of surviving on grace, it is just so amazing!

Stock Trading.
i like the idea of trading soon. But here’s the principle my friend shared. For as long as you have money in your bank account that could afford your operating exp for 6 months, go ahead, invest the remainder! Take risks!
