Korphil Mom's struggle

After spending a year again in the Philippines we are once again going back to South Korea. I felt happy yet sad..Why?!..
One reason is even though I love my life in Korea with the fast transportation, definitely different life style and high salary; Philippines is still my original home, tattooed in my being and my root. However, managing a 2 star hotel ,supervising the English School and co-managing the online English business and being a Spa owner- all of this work is taking a hard stall over me. Whenever i come home every night and see my two kids peacefully sleeping in the arms of my trusted house help, I felt sorry for them for not taking care of them and for not spending much time with them. Money is not everything. So, I pray and pray for everything that my hearts desire. I asked God for enlightenment and I asked my Mom that time and told her pieces of what I want. She asked one thing? Where will you go after all this hardships? If this makes everybody happy go for it but if not stop and do the other way you think is better. So tough things came, and before we realized it we had to decide fast. And so here we are, decided to fly back and live in Korea for good. So what was it that bugged us the most? And its totally giving me a BIG TIME fear~....As a mom and a parent, we have to choose. What language should my children really have to give importance with. My son, who is now 3 years old is having language difficulty problem. He is very smart like most of children in the world his age. He is fast learner but he could not talk straight using one language. It is frustrating and I end up always blaming myself if my teaching and my choices are not good enough. So I told my hubby and prepared everything, its so much work to do but when my kids are at stake I would not decide twice. So cheers for our new life  gone with the old one.

The Truth of Forgiving the Past...

     The past cannot escape of who we are right now..right? Because of those experiences behind us  comes the new version of us. Of who we are and what we do, on how we act and react to things, on how we think, response or on how we deal with  things.      All of us are products of  our own past. It can either be from a good or bad pasts memories and or event. I want to point on the bad past in this blog.        People who tried to destroy others or hurt others might be coming from a trauma that they once experience. Some of those hurtful experiences might be a close friend who turned his back when you were in desperate situation or from a  traumatic experience from a  separated parents or can be due to an unfortunate event that we really  could not forget.              F rom all of these bad slope in our life do we realize what effect  they caused                         us? What did we do when we were in this difficult situation. How did we react and                   w

Resident Registration Application....

SO then last year, I decided to pursue studying through KIIP to get my citizenship last year. KIIP by the way is a program from the Korean immigration that allows individuals with a valid Visa to learn Korean that will eventually be the fastest key(for some) to apply for the citizenship when passed until level 5.  For those who are curious what KIIP is, i have a separate blog about it, please check them out. So then I took the level test and got lev.4 that is why i was able to finish until lev.5 easily~ yay!!~.application is a little bit complicated as well but with the right documents it will be easy. Here are the HOW TO's.. 1. A text message will pop, telling you na " in 10 days" makakatanggap ka ng letter from the immigration about sa application ng citizenship(actually 2days lang dumating na xa).. **so wait nlng after receiving a message from them wag maxado maexcite..hahaha 2.The letter from the immigration which has "귀화허가 통지서" or &q

Have you heard about Kawasaki Disease?

Based in American Heart Association, K awasaki disease (mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome) is a children's illness characterized by fever, rash, swelling of the hands and feet, irritation and redness of the whites of the eyes, swollen lymph glands in the neck, and irritation and inflammation of the mouth, lips and throat.   Named after Dr. Tomisaku Kawasaki, a Japanese pediatrician, the disease has probably been in existence for a long time, but was not recognized as a separate entity until 1967. The incidence is higher in Japan than in any other country. In the United States it is more frequent among children of Asian-American background, but can occur in any racial or ethnic group.  The heart may be affected in as many as one of five children who develop Kawasaki disease. Damage sometimes occurs to the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle (the coronary arteries) and to the heart muscle itself. A weakening of a coronary artery can result in an enlargement or swell
