Vocal Point

i missed this...

whew! it's been a year and almost three months since i last write something...

i guess i've been busy. but i'm still here...

i still love and would want to share unsolicited words of wisdom.

after a year, i have "grown" to a lot more diversified stay-at-home mother:

~my first born will be a first grader (true school level in my opinion).

~my second child turned three and is almost ready for preschool, but i'm the one not ready to let him out the "big world" yet.

~i have found a home based business i feel will be my family's future financial freedom.

~i found some more new talents i can not hide.

~found some new hobbies and read some new books.

~met a lot of new friends!

i hope to continue writing more... (again!) soon...

lost in translation...

i wanted to translate my blogs (having new friends that are not Filipino), I would like it to be more "main stream".

i was hoping to find a help from the WorldWideWeb and i googled "language translator online" and a lot came out but i tried iGoogle (Google Translator) and here's what i got... pretty funny!

last saturday, July 25, 2009, 1 year old na ang bunso namin... si Matthew Benjamin.

ginugupitan ang batang pinoy after mag 1st birthday, lalu na kapag manipis daw ang buhok - kinakalbo pa.

kami naman ni dadi B, parang to get rid of the baby hair lang. chaka kasi talagang ang haba ng hinaba ng buhok ni Matthew same with Sebastian habang hinihintay ang 1st birthday nila...

Matthew's new do!

translated to:

last Saturday, July 25, 2009, 1 year old the youngest we... David Matthew Benjamin.

ginugupitan to the young Filipino after 1st birthday, especially when said with thin hair - kinakalbo yet.

We also of Dadi B, seems to get rid of the baby hair only. Chaka because really long hair of Matthew hinahaba same with Sebastian while they wait for the 1st birthday... Matthew's new do!

which should be:

last saturday, July 25, 2009, our youngest, Matthew Benjamin, turned 1 year old...

it's a tradition that a Filipino child gets their first hair cut or their head shaved -- especially those with thin hair after the first birthday.

but for me and Dadi B, it's just to get rid of the baby hair. And Matthew's hair really grew so long during the first year same as Sebastian's.... Matthew's new do!

ok, not the best idea... technology really still has a long way to go... :-) maybe i'll just try to translate my blogs (little by little) when i have time.
