An introduction of sorts.

 Finally after two months (and three days) I have finally gotten around to:

1.  making a blog
2. posting it
3. releasing it for public consumption
....okay, so I half lied. I still don’t know what to fill this blog with. What I hope to do is share my experiences, both the everyday mundane activities and the big events that encompass my six-month journey in the homeland. 

I came here with a bag full of expectations (and about two weeks worth of clothes). I thought  of all the possibilities a small 5’1 Filipino-Canadian girl would do once she got rooted and settled into the Philippine lifestyle. I dreamt big and I knew I wanted to do it all. Nine months before I actually left Toronto, I was given a vision. I held onto that vivid picture and it made the "impossible" seem possible. At that time I had about three more semesters left of my undergrad. How the heck was I going to finish it in less than a year when I was somewhat, kind of behind my peers? But, praise God because I was obviously able to finish. When you know why you're doing what you are doing, anything can happen. I guess I could call that moment the beginning of a Purpose Driven Life.
