Am back...after a long vacation

I took a long vacation from blogging, there was just so much to do at home and my only interaction with the computer was checking the mails, there were times I could not even reply….my apologies to all those who sent emails, forwarded and otherwise.

In addition to all the housework, Christmas shopping and cooking, I also had to help out my son with the multitude of projects and homework and exams he had to endure….if only you could see him and his efforts. It was then that I realized how important some information is for children. I was very thankful that some blogs took the time to put necessary information that makes the children’s job easier. One such blog is mukamo Philippines where my son was able to get the list of the cabinet members under the arroyo government. Since then I promised myself that every now and then I will also put educational information that can help these kids with their projects.

For all my guests, I will appreciate it if you could leave me links to new and updated information that our children are often using, questions they are always asking so I can research and post the answers.

Reminders For My Teenage Son

The other day I had a discussion with my 13 year old son about his blatant disregard for my instructions and the PDRRMC Advisory 2:  “Even in the absence of signals from Pagasa and in view of emerging consensus that the rains are likely further accelerate, for the safety and health of our community, we hereby order the EARLY DISMISSAL OF CLASSES in Kinder, Elementary and Highschool, private and public, in the entire province of Albay. School administrators and teachers should advise their students to no longer report in the afternoon. Parents are advised to fetch their children from school. This is an early dismissal, not a suspension, thus classes automatically resume tomorrow without need for lifting. I came home from the office earlier than he did and so I talked to him. He was silent and at first I thought he understood why I was very mad about it. But then when he replied to me with three suggestions including transferring him to the school in our town so he would not be able ...

It's been awhile...

It's great to be back...it has been more than a year since I last updated this blog...I really have not been consistent. There has been a lot of changes..for one my son is now in high school and he's now growing..a bit taller than me although I dont admit it to him...lol, as if he cant see for himself..but he is longing for the day when he can look down on me...or I should look up to him while were talking. Proof that he is growing is the fact that I have to get him a new set of school uniforms since his pants are not as long as the typical uniform pants the kids appreciate. His polo uniforms are also getting shorter. If he continues to grow I think I would have to change all his things...including his casual tees...though I find it really lovely that my t-shirts are now smaller than his....here he is in his school polo.

Real Men Treat Women With Respect

This video caught my eye on tumblr recently. My fellow Madridistas are young and I often see what's important to them. It's nice that I get to see that men are not all a@$%holes....gotta show this to my son although, I can proudly say that I know he is one teen who treats women with respect, like he does me and all his aunts and my colleagues.
