for this past month, i've been moving from one place to another either for work or for pleasure.
soon after the 2nd semester of the schoolyear was over, i planned a trip to Occidental Mindoro, Philippines to visit a former student, a Mangyan community in Calapan, and went snorkling in Puerto Galera.
these are activities i haven't done before. i decided to give it a go while i am young...while i am able to with my two kids ofcourse.
and bonding time couldn't be more pleasurable as this.
after this three to four day travelling, we went to my hometown - calamba city philippines; after a day, we visited different churches. the Filipino practice of Visita Iglesia - from calamba city to pagsanjan, laguna. ofcourse this wouldn't be possible without transportation - innova and revo from my sister and brother. the holy week was spent wisely with friends and family without sacrificing the essence of the week...of how Christ's suffering redeemed us from our sins.
after the holy week, it was work again in naga; the 4-day bootcamp for students called for my presence 24/7 making me live in a dorm, ofcourse with my kids in tow.
summer class has begun...i have to go to yet another place for a cluster meeting; a workshop of sorts for deans and department cahirs and teachers, and students.
no...there's no chance that my tasks would be finished. the challenge really is when and how i manage to be a mom-dad and a ma'am 24/7
