Jcka’s Adventures

Whew!!! Time does flies huh? I remember when I was only 9 or 10 years old when my siblings use to tease me about having dark skin and my dear mother would comfort to tell me its alright to have dark skin–someday you will be married to an american guy…cause they love dark skin woman. Guess what??? I met and married to an american white guy— and have a beautiful baby with fair skin–he!he!he!

My dear late mother also remind us a few times–me, my Mano Nanding and Jun-Jun to keep ..take care of our birth certificates cause someday we are going to use it to go abroad. And the three of us all did—- Mano Nanding in Qatar left Philippines 2005— Jun-Jun as a Seaman on a tanker he’s been a seaman since 1996 right after college. And me— flew to Bahrain on March 1999.

Its 3 am here–woke up and realize  I will be 34 years old soon in a few hours— WOW! My dear late mother at age 33 she got already 6 kids. I was born when my mother was 32  and Tatang 30 years old–6 kids whoaa–dont ask me how they did it…but we all survive alright– 6 out of 7 went to college. The oldest 3 went ot college in Manila in 1980’s.  Tatang was a fisherman and Mama helps him a lot—  going places where there is a rice harvest and would barter a fish ( cooked and dried) for a "gantang" of rice, or as a hairdresser, dressmaker. They both did a great job in raising their 7 kids. How I wish they are still here to enjoy their grandchildrens….I am sure they are up there smiling-looking over our shoulder  on each of  their kids and grandkids adventure.

When I was still in Philippines I started an Annual Christmas party on Christmas Day with my nieces/nephews, and all the kids neighbor. It was always a great fun to see all those smiling face. We would do an exchange gift ( box of assorted candies and crackers) and they all just so happy with the snacks of Orange juice and mayo sandwhich. And parlor games..oh miss it so bad! I know someday I will be celebrating my birthday again in Pinas someday!!! GOD WILLING!! Inshallah!

Looking back in my 33 years… what a life and what a blessings I got from the Almighty GOD. To my guardian Angel who was with me all the time–during my happiness and lowest moment in my life, who never get tired with me. My friends, my friendster friends who always  put smile in my face when I need one — my family in Philippines, my inspiration! My Papa Toto  love of my life–my partner— my Bianca Ann my pride and my jewel.

Speaking of my Papa Toto we have been partner (I knew him since November 1996) 10 years!! wow!! been together for 7 1/2 years and been married for 5 years. Yes we did got married on Christmas day on my 29th birthday in GUAM. as I always say: LIFE IS GOOD!!! My NInang sa kasal sent us a $100.00 gift certificate for a dinner. Thank you ninang Linda–you are the bomb!

I would like to kiss my 33 years goodbye- thank you for the wonderfilled year– and welcome my 34th birthday with smile and hope that things will be just as great as it has always been—GREAT HEALTH for my family and friends, WISDOM to understand more about LIFE—and HOPE, LOVE and PEACE on EARTH. BE more WISER… ask this through Jesus Christ amen.
