1. I want to learn how to sew.
I can do some basic stitches just enough to fix clothes, mend a torn seam and sew a button or sequin on fabric. But I want to improve my sewing skills and make my own clothes, bed sheets, pillowcases, and curtains.
I remember when I was in high school one of our projects is to make a blouse and short but I don’t know how to sew. My classmates told me that their moms made their project but my mom was not with me so I went to my “suking mananahi”, I gave her my design, blouse and skort (skirt in front/short at the back). The finished product was so good and it is very obvious that I did not make my project so my teacher just gave me 85. Hehe!
2. I want to learn how to swim and dive.
We love to go to the beach and pool but I’m not an expert swimmer so I always rely on lifevest. I told you before that I did not learn anything from my P.E. swimming class, blame it to the rainy season. But I hope someday, I can swim and dive like a pro.
3. I want to learn how to drive.
We bought our first family car last 2007 when we found out that I was pregnant. I promised myself that I will enroll in driving school after I gave birth but it didn’t happen. We sold the first car then our second car and now we’re using the new one and I still don’t know how to drive. I’m still scared. Hehe!
4. I want to have my own business
Now that I’m a full-time mom for four years, I don’t know if I can still go back to the corporate world so I want to have my own business but until now I’m still clueless on which business I want to pursue.
5. RTW (Round the World)
I mentioned before that when I was young, I want to be a flight attendant because I want to travel and see the world. Tourism is one of my choices when I was applying for college but I did not pursue it. I accepted the fact that I cannot be a flight attendant, blame it to my height. If money is not an issue, I would love to travel around the world but if there is no budget I can travel around the Philippines.
parang ako din, i need to learn how to drive! hee hee malaking obstacle nyan for me. kung pwede lang nakaupo lang ako the whole time during trips :D
ReplyDeletedependent nga ko kay hubby pag may lakad e. hehe!
Delete1, 2, 3 are very attainable... #1 you can enroll in TESDA, #2 and #3 - your hubby can teach you. you need to know how to drive coz your hubby will not be always there to drive you and ethan everywhere, especially pag may emergencies and he's nowhere near you. Go go go!
ReplyDeletetumitingin nga ko tesda, pero sana may weekend sked. parang ayaw ko paturo kay hubby at baka magtalo lang kami, hehe!
DeleteHmm, we have some things in common. Let's believe that all of this will be attained at the right time .
ReplyDeletegusto ko din magtravel sana soon magawa ko yan. :)
ReplyDeleteI know how to drive but not a car...more of a forklift lol! I know I'd be scared to drive around the metro...those kings of the road wannabes are scary.
ReplyDeleteI want to learn how to drive as well! I was already learning then, but stopped. Ayan tuloy, naudlot! Haha
ReplyDeleteApir!!! Like you, i also want t learn how to sew, drive on my own, have my own business and travel the world ;)
ReplyDeleteBtw, my friend told me that sewing classes are offered at Tesda. If im not mistaken, it costs 580/month lng. ;-)
may weekend sked kaya?
Deletemy mom is a dressmaker, but unfortunately, di ko naman ang skills niya :( i wanna have my own business too! diving? malabo sa akin, tried snorkling before but I can't look at the deep under the water. ang dilim. scared ako :)
ReplyDeletehaha! hindi naman ganun kadilim pero scary nga, nakakalula din pala.
DeleteI want to have my own business too. Kaso Mahina ako sa marketing eh;(
ReplyDeleteOh my gulay, if I'd make a list, I'll have the same list! At lahat hindi ko pa nauumpisahan except for sewing... but I have just made one baby step haha! We're you reading my mind??? :D
ReplyDeleteSpanish Pinay
oo nga sis, naumpisahan mo na yung sewing. =)
DeleteStart learning how to drive na, Michi! It's a great feeling. Lalo na when driving on a stretch of clear, no-traffic road. So relaxing.
ReplyDeleteI'll let you in on a secret. I almost quit in the middle of my driving lessons because I almost rammed a dog while practicing (thank God that doggy was ok. Just a little sacred din like me.) So for a few weeks, I stopped. Told my tito, who was my driving instructor, that I needed a break for a while. But then I read about this girl (foreigner sya. Can't remember her nationality) in the newspaper who was a paraphlegic (no limbs!) but she drives a racecar and is even a professional pilot. That got me thinking, if she who was clearly at a disadvantage could do it, why couldn't I, with complete limbs available, do it too?
I never looked back since. And I'm so thankful now that I know how to drive. Iba na rin kasi yung merong 2 drivers at home for emergency. =)
P.S. It also helped that I bought a car na rin before even learning how to drive. Sayang din yun a! Heheheh! =)
for emergency nga. i don't know why i'm so scared to learn. nabasa ko rin yata yan and meron din magaling magswim pero walang paa. #inspiration i need to push myself.
DeleteI like the sewing part, now that I'm on leave from work for 2 months, gusto ko bumili ng sewing machine para makagawa ng kurtina at bedsheets.
ReplyDeletelahat ng nasa list mo sis gusto ko! hihi!
ReplyDeletetama ka sis, hirap talaga magpapayat grabe! pero super determined na ko hehe!
for my case namn..i know how to drive..but not given the chance to drive. :)
ReplyDeletehello, good morning you have a weighty list!
ReplyDeletesewing is not my thing, pagtahi lang ng napunit kong pants or t-shirt ayayay...i'm so lazy doing it hahaha
i also wanted to be a flight stewardess...my dream since i was a kid, after college last year i applied for the job at cebu pacific, unfortunately i am not qualified - we were 30 applicants and only 4 pass, i think height is not anymore an issue, they really look for girls who are pretty and snowy skin
I also don't know how to swim and drive..:( (any vehicle that needs balance and car)
