Inside Mae

Last year I posted this long essay about Mama Leni, let me share it to you: Ayaw ko kay Leni! Ayaw ko kay Leni kasi babae siya, lutang siya, bobo siya, puppet ata ng dilawan, lugaw, nagdadasal lang pag may camera.  Unang word palang ekis na. Stop stereotyping na porke babae, mahina na. Umpog kita sa muscles ni Hidilyn Diaz  🤣  char! Kidding aside, hindi kami BABAE LANG, BABAE KAMI!  💪   Lutang siya kasi 18 hrs siya nagtatrabaho - char. Luluhod ako sayo kung wala kang lutang moments  🤣  Siya lamang ang politikong lutang, na mayroon lang namang highest audit rating sa COA for 3 consecutive years as VP of  🇵🇭  (COA - commission on audit - di yan peyk news nor tiktok news)  🤣 Bobo siya- Ekonomista, abogada, elected VP with highest rating at bago pa sumabak sa politika may nagawa na. Puppet ata ng dilawan. “Ata” means di pa sure. So far kasi ang mga resibo ni Leni na lumalabas puro pagtulong sa mahihirap, pagprovide ng mass testing noon...

Just how I draft my talk. *bulleted* 

  When I walked through the aisle, nothing in my head but only hoping not to stumble down at that moment. Gusto ko sana icherish yung moment pero ang bigat at haba ng gown ko tapos kinakain pa ng carpet and all my loved ones were looking at me. I just stayed calm, did presence of mind and smiled to everyone. My tears went down when my mama and papa were cheering me and held my hands to accompany me going to the altar where my home was waiting for me.  💓

  Bakit matagal mag withdraw ng pera ang mga tao sa atm? Ayon sa laki ng mata ko for observation: 1. Pinag iisipan muna kung Tagalog ba o English ang pipindutin. 2. Doon palang pag iisipan magkano wiwithdrawhin. 3. Paglabas ng pera, doon rin mismo bibilangin. 4. Mayron silang tatlong set ng card na pag wiwithdrahan.  5. Gusto lang tlaga mang asar  😅 Anyway, buti na lang may Gcash at Maya na ngayon 😂

  We all have unfinished prayers in our lives. Whether it's a prayer, we started writing down in our notes and never finished, or a prayer we said out loud but never got an answer to, we all have moments of incomplete prayer. Sometimes, it can be hard to understand why our prayers remain unanswered. We may feel like we have done something wrong, or like God isn't listening. But the truth is, God is always listening. He hears our prayers and knows our hearts. It's important to remember that God's timing is different from ours. He may not answer our prayers in the way we expect or when we expect it. But He will answer in His perfect timing. When we feel like our prayers are going unanswered, we can take comfort in the fact that God knows what's best for us. He knows our needs, our struggles, and our desires. He will answer our prayers in the best way possible. So if you too, have unfinished prayers in your notes, don't give up. Take comfort in the fact that God is...

My dearest ones, It's hard to believe that our time together has come to an end. Imagine, since Grade 1, you were in my arms and under my care already, and now it’s hard and it pains me to stretch my arms and let you go; but as your second mom, I must watch you grow from a distance. I am so proud to have been your teacher all these years, and I'm going to miss you all so much. As you move on to new adventures, always remember the fun times we had and the lessons we learned. Always believe in yourself, work hard, and continue to shine. I have so much faith in all of you and I know that wherever you go, you'll do great things. Best of luck to you all, and always keep learning. With love and admiration, Teacher Mae 🫰

Ironic noh?! Totoo pala na kapag malapit ka na mag 30, liliit nang liliit ang circle mo. God’s will siguro na makita ang tunay na kulay ng bawat tao na nakapaligid sa’yo. Magkakaroon ka ng mga kaibigan na akala mo sobrang solid, ending nagkaroon ng hindi pagkakaintindihan, friendship over agad ang i-ooffer sa’yo. Disregarded lahat ng pinagsamahan, mabuti mong ginawa, pagmamahal na binigay sa kanila. Okay na sana na umalis sila sa buhay mo, pero sana ‘wag nang mag effort manakit emotionally, na parang kaligayahan nila na hindi ako maging okay hanggang future! What I learned from this is, to never invest feelings so deep to those people who are not reciprocating the same energy. Never trust anyone too easily! Never. ——— I’m so grateful i have my husband. He’s the one who absorbs all my angst recently, he doesn’t ride with my emotions but he makes sure that my feelings are validated.  I’m so grateful with my true friends, they know what I’m going thru right now. They always make sure ...

  For most people, getting pregnant is something on the easier side. But to find out that my journey to get pregnant is going to be considerably harder and much more expensive, it hurts to know that the one that I really dream of is so far away from reality. Beginning with irregular periods as a teen, then a PCOS diagnosis as a young adult, my journey to fertility was already hurdled.  But my doctor and my husband did not give up on me. The first day that I met my doctor, October 2021, I was not married then, she asked me “do you want to get pregnant?”, without hesitation, I replied, “Yes, I really do, doc!”, from then on, my doctor was too hands on, she has requested a series of tests and gave me a lot of medication until I got married, November 2021, she was still taking care of me, she’s so reachable online, even if she’s driving she would take my call, and even if it was late at night she would answer my queries.  Almost a year has passed without getting positive resu...
