Ahhh, I thought I would be spared from this circulating meme. Thanks dear Julie. This is tough as I don’t have that many pictures of myself that haven’t been posted here in my blog because it is usually me who goes behind the camera. Besides, I am not keen in posting pictures of myself because I am not that pretty and I recently gained weight. I am 10 pounds overweight. Que horror! I have been trying my best to lose it by walking 3 miles a day after I get home from work, rain or shine. It has been a week since I started walking, and so far, it hasn’t made a dent yet. But, that will not deter me from continuing. Besides, the weather has been nice lately and I get to say hi to people and get teased by some.

I wanted to post pictures from yesteryears but my mama didn’t document my childhood years. Sad huh? Or if she did, it may have been ruined by many super typhoons that have ravaged our little island. I remember seeing a picture of myself in Hawaiian costume and some high school graduation photos but those seemed to have disappeared, too.  It is sad because my kids wanted to see what I was like when I was little. What can I do?

Here is one that I found after going through my files. This was taken 5 years ago when I was 40 years old.

Here’s another one which was taken two years ago while ordering food in a restaurant. I made this picture into an avatar in PMN so for some of you, this is not new.

And last but not the least, a picture taken two years ago at a wedding on a beach. Let’s see if you can find Waldo, I mean negrang Belle in this picture.

To know more about me, all you have to do is scroll down my blog. I posted my humble beginnings and that tells pretty much about myself. I am basically easy to get along with but I don’t want to be a victim of favoritism. I will fight back. I work hard at what I do and I deserve to be treated fairly and squarely regardless of my color, decent, and background.

I love cooking but am not much into baking although I love to indulge in sweets now and then. It is so easy to gain weight now that I am in mid 40’s. When I was in college, I had to take an apetigen pills in order to gain some pounds, but nothing happened. It proves that you shouldn’t tamper with mother nature. Imagine, I weighed only 97 pounds then and that included clothes. I was often ridiculed for not having a rump in my butt. Hehehe…I got one now, a J-Lo look alike butt. I just have to make sure it doesn’t grow bigger and bigger.
