Occupation Lifestyle Editor
Location Makati City, Philippines
Introduction I am taking three serious careers in this lifetime: a whinny mom, a wife, & a full time Lifestyle Editor. My past jobs included teaching literature & humanities in the university, news writing, disc jockeying, news casting, & editorship for a newspaper. I started working at the age of 17 (NU 107 was then the dream job of all breathing and hormonally-charged teenagers) and semi-retired at the age of 25 to take a full wonder woman turn to become what I am now at 32. I have no claim to any success story because I believe that the word success really is subjective, and that you don’t consciously think about it every single day when you’re sincerely happy with your life. I’m manic and I’m scared of boredom. I’m married to an ambidextrous who skillfully draws, paints, cooks, and can do any odd job that you can think of. But really, he’s a successful & well-respected journalist and has a serious ability to understand how my mind works. People think I’m a psychic but I don’t claim to be one. I studied BA Broadcasting/Psychology in U.P., & our six year old son finds it unbelievable that my husband & I met in college ”once upon a time".
Interests Social psychology: how people think and how they react to life situations; books; mysticism; spirituality; motherhood; movies; music; any source of knowledge for my brain
