January 9, 2001 - Mama immigrated to the US. It's just so different without mama being around. Good thing there's e-mail!

25 years old - I left the MEDIA (Radio Broadcasting where I worked since I was 18) and decided to live a simple and quiet life working in a small office that help empower poor communities. I will forever be grateful to Mr. Ferdinand Gonzales (my boss back then) for letting me work there.

Mount Crest Bldg. There was an internet cafe there back then. So that is where I did my E-mailing to Mama in California and started making new friends on-line through chatting. I remember that back then chatters were really honest and sensible. Now I don't chat anymore - I found that theres just too many ill behaved people with bad taste nowadays. The ones I made friends back then are still my good friends now. Some have died though :-(

Too bad the only digital pictures I had back then were these small from a "digital camera" ( webcam at the same time). It was from a P250.00 no brand name gadget. Picture resolution was really primitive. I Didn't even know I would be looking back at these pictures now (March 14, 2007). If only I knew then what I know now, I would have bought a better camera. hahaha.

Today Ron comes home from his long Vacation. I am so excited for his homecoming that I decided to make an art wall. Lots of meas...
