A lot has happened in 2018 that was unplanned or unexpected.
It was the year when I traveled a lot -- six places, I think, ha ha! -- when
my son turned 18, I turned golden, and my marriage reached 20 years!
I started the year traveling to Iloilo for the 50th Year of
Dinagyang Festival. This isn't my first time to watch Dinagyang but every time I do, I am always impressed by the pageantry, the agility, and the creativity of these participants to showcase the culture of their place.
After Iloilo, I flew to Larena, Siquijor for the town fiesta. Well, this is annual thing really for me as my parents have retired to this beautiful island. In the photo below, I went to this inter-barangay food festival, and I got the chance to pose with the town mayor.
A couple of weeks after coming back from Larena, I flew to Singapore to attend an Asia Pacific Convention (APC) of UHS and meet up with my high school classmates.
I tell you that APC in Singapore helped me to understand that I could grow my business. I saw how big the business is and how huge the opportunity is presented to me.
A week after I got back from Singapore, I flew to Cebu for a business meeting.
Then to Cabanatuan for another business expansion.
And before the year ended, my business partners and I headed for La Union for some R&R.
Meanwhile, in the home front, my elder son finished senior high and was headed for university to take up Civil Engineering.
Then, last October, I turned 50 years old. I haven't made a post about it because well, I just didn't have the the time to put my thoughts together. I know it deserves a separate blog post, so I will write about it one of these days. But to reach 50 years, wow! It has not been an easy ride. There was only one major roadblock that I needed to do a detour. Looking back, though, that mouth that I fed but had eaten my hand, I had to finally shut up. Karma is a bitch, baby!
Another life cycle happened and my husband and I just reached 20 years of being together. This, I praise God, has been a smooth ride. And it deserves another separate blog post, ha ha!
I say that with all that I have right now, and where I am, I am truly blessed.
Who knew I would be recognized in SM MOA Arena for a promotion in my business?
So, my word for 2019 is ready.
Stay tuned!
