25 random things about me

Just an entry I lifted from my facebook notes for some of you who are multipliers but not (yet) a citizen of planet facebook. :) 1.  There are only two things that i like hot: coffee and Lee Kum Kee chilli sauce.  I specially don't like hot showers. This is probably because my mom accidentally poured hot water on me when I was 2 or 3.  She was bathing me in a big basin and instead of using the lukewarm water, she dipped the dipper into the wrong pot and got a boiling water.  So when I feel something hot on my skin, I bolt. 2.  The first English fiction (full-length novel) I've ever read was entitled Raquela when I was 13.  It was shoved into my face by a dorm parent after she confiscated all my Filipino teen romance novelettes.  I still do not appreciate the shoving :) but I am glad that she forced me to read the book until the end.  She quizzed me with details after every chapter to make sure that I did read the whole thing.  The setting of the story was during the 1948 Isra

A RISKY ONE

I haven't been here for quite a while, but I haven't been around anything or any place recently anyway. I decided to come by and write an update for fear of developing a carpal tunnel (like Lolo Trueblue:) from perpetually pressing on those little buttons on my phone's keypad to reply to friends' text messages asking how I am doing. Actually there is not much to write. I have been spending my time in bed getting tired of resting. I never knew that resting can be very tiring! I wouldn't have done it for or to myself if not for the fact that the life of someone very important to me depends on it. Yup, for those of you who still do not know, I am having a high-risk pregnancy. I have what medical people called subchorionic hematoma (SCH) where a part of the placenta detached itself from the lining of the womb and a pocket of blood collects in between this tear. I won't get into any more details for fear of grossing you all out. :) You may click here if you
