almost didn't make it to work today. i've got upset stomach. but i couldn't take a leave. reserving my leave for friday. going again to zambales with my kids and some friends. this time we are staying in a place near capones island. but will still drop by our friends house near crystal beach. the water kasi at crystal beach is not conducive for kids. pang-surfing talaga. the beach have big and strong waves. it can really knock you off your feet.

funny nga, i remember my friend japorms na japorms with matching two piece swimsuit tapos here comes the big waves...toinks....ayun puro gasgas yung behind nya...hehehe. my youngest daughter preferred to stay by the shore. laro lang sya ng sand....ayun sunog na sunog pagkatapos. well, okey lang yun. mawawala din naman after awhile, what's important is they enjoyed their summer vacation.

i really need this break....to get away from my stressful job and my unimaginable family. hoping to come back in a much more refreshed state of being. have to do some long term planning as well. a choice between living in the province (la union) to manage the businesses my dad left behind or staying in manila near my spiteful family and my stressful job. of course, living in the city has advantages that i really need to consider before finalizing my plans. and have to consider my kids...sigh

i can do this....i will survive.
