Opening of classes in P.I.

It's been a week since most of the schools started their classes here in the Philippines. The rest will open today June 8, 2015.
It could be exciting for most students; new friends, new adventures, additional knowledge, "baon" and "gala" days, etc. But for some it could be scary, very scary and maybe stressful. Most esp. for those kids who'll go to school the first time, those who'll move to the next stage (from primary to secondary school, from high school to college) and those who'll transfer schools.
This will also mean busy days for Moms esp. the working Moms."Tipid" or "budget" days again because as we all know education means additional expenses. But it's all worth it, and should be on top of our priorities when it comes to budgeting. Also expect heavy traffic everywhere, esp. during rush hours and rainy days.
Good thing now it's easy for us to check updates online, school calendar/activities, weather updates/signal warnings, etc. There are government websites to guide/help us, also there are a lot of other sites that we could visit esp. those associated to TV networks.
I wish everyone to have a great school year. Study well and just enjoy.

Happy to be a blogger :)

They say that life begins at 40, and I strongly believe in this. When I hit this age there were a lot of things that came into my mind. I would have to reflect, look back and list down those that I have achieved at this point in my life. Am I happy and contented with where I am and with what I have? Now, I would have to figure out myself if there's a truth to the saying that people do not really have satisfaction.
I have finished college, worked in prestigious companies, got our own condo, bought our own car, tried several businesses, had my ups and downs, travelled a lot and still I am wanting for more. I guess after achieving your goals (or your childhood dreams) you would still want for more. Not because you are not contented or happy or not satisfied with what you have but because there are still a lot to conquer, a lot to learn, a lot to explore. You will not be doing them to be recognized and get praise from others but for self-fulfillment. For continuous learning and for self-improvement.
As I started my mid-life journey, I have listed down those that I would like to achieve in the next half of my life. Finish an MBA degree, get a bigger place for our family, a bigger car, a better career, an established business and a lot more. Also there are new endeavors, new things that I would like to try, and I am happy that I am able to start one right now. To have my own blog ... I know this will be the beginning of something big, a new chapter of my life will be opened because of this great opportunity.  For sure I will be enjoying this as I've been wanting to do this a long time ago.
I also wish those who will follow me the same. Enjoy reading and exploring with me and thank you in advance...
