Stop, Look And Learn
2007-11-03 15:16:00
I'd been tutoring English as a sideline for a few months for two hours everyday after work. This has helped me a great deal financially and I'm truly grateful. Lately, my tutee has been really busy with his business and so am I with work and some other stuff. We still meet once in a while although not as often as we used to anymore. Before I got into teaching again, my friend Paz introduced me to online tutoring. She has been into this, teaching Koreans the English language for years now. I was all for it except for the schedule so I didn't pursue it.Tutoring is not new to me. Back in college, a neighbor asked me to tutor her younger sister and she said she'd pay me monthly. Not bad I thought. I taught English, Science and Math like basic Algebra and Accounting. It's more like a homework help sort of thing.Come to think of it, tutoring requires a lot of patience and patience is something God's been dealing with me. Isn't it ironic? =D

A Home Away From Home 3
2007-11-03 15:14:00
Hola! Buenos dias! From the Land Down Under - Australia, we now go to the beautiful country of Spain!I love the Spanish language. Ours here in the Philippines - Filipino, mostly, came from Spanish words. One of my favorite places here which is Intramuros, where hubby and I got married, was built by the Spaniards in the 16th century. This is why anything Spanish is close to a lot of people in my country. They have been here for more than 300 years.There are so many hotels in Spain that you can lodge in and are fairly priced if you decide to visit this beautiful country. You can choose from hotels in Barcelona and visit Sagrada Familia, La Boqueira or the Gothic Quarter to name a few. Or you can choose from hotels in Madrid and drop by the Prado Museum, the Royal Palace (inset photo) or their lovely Botanical Gardens. Véale allí!

CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT EXCHANGE
2007-10-28 14:09:00
I joined the 2007 Christmas Ornament Exchange hosted by Kathleen over at The Open Window. This, I think, is one way to strengthen the friendship between bloggers and to know each other more which is wonderful, don't you think? I'm really excited to be part of this for the first time this year. To all bloggers out there, come join the fun! I'm sure it'll be one great experience for all of us. Here are the rules:1. The drawing for names will be on the 16th of November. This gives you plenty of time to find or make that perfect ornament. Kathleen will be making a list and each person will be given a number. She will then use Random.org to see who gets who. Once she knows she will email you the name and addy of the person you have.2. An ornament can hang on a tree or be a decoration on a fireplace, mantle, or a figurine to decorate the lawn. It's your call. If you want to play Santa and include other little goodies as well, that is also your call ?3. Once the drawing has been compl...

ENJOY YOUR SEASON
2007-10-27 13:04:00
I often hear this phrase - Enjoy your season. I received this same message not just once but countless times from a very close friend of mine. I didn't understand what she meant by it, but I prayed about it and somehow God revealed to me what it meant to enjoy my season. Often times I would stomp my feet out of frustration and blurt out, "I'm tired of waiting! Why are you doing this to me, God?!" Then I would cry buckets. After bawling like crazy, my problems were still there. It didn't go away. Same old frustration would present itself to my face.We have God's promise and we recieved it with open arms, with praises on our lips. After that we wait. Now that's the hard part, right? It is! But we are sure that His promise will come to pass and we can trust God for it. And before we get to our promised land, how do we wait? Do we wait impatiently and miserably or do we wait joyfully? Now that is up to us.To enjoy our season is to enjoy the journey He prepared for us to get to our ...
