I found this among the funny t-shirts at a website that also offers inspirational posters and I think it’s sexy. It’s quite a rare find to me: most often I see T-shirts that are either made for both sexes, or just sound quite manly for a woman (for a woman in the engineering profession) to wear.
I think this one fits well for any woman who is involved in engineering profession, don’t you think?
I’m quite a fairly frugal person but sometimes when I encounter shirts with confidence quotes just like this it makes me want to have one. “Engineer with curves” – I still am a curvy fat woman even if I don’t have that kind of flattery figure men often drool. Of course, obviously this shirt would have better impact if I had that kind of figure most men want. I have plans to lose weight to keep healthy and make myself flattering, but I still couldn’t find time to do that.
I tried thinking of some funny quotes or messages that are related to my profession and my gender, but I couldn’t think of one. If I will be able to compose one, then I’d probably get a custom T-shirt design done. Maybe today is one of those days when my creativity isn’t at its peak.
I’d probably add one or two of these kind of T-shirts to my wardrobe.
Today is perhaps the one day when the Filipino people stopped doing their usual work to watch the real-life hostage drama that took place near the Quirino Grandstand which was aired on national TV. The incident was so disturbing that I could not even get to sleep.
I already know about the hostage drama earlier from various online Philippine news but didn’t pay much attention to it, thinking that no one would get hurt. However, after working for the day, my thoughts keep on coming back to that drama. Soon I found myself watching the drama live on Philippine TV early night.
Suddenly, I heard gunshots – several of them – and moments later a lifeless body at the bus door. There was also a driver who managed to escape to lived to tell that no one was left alive.
As hostage went on, I could not help but get angry at what happened. I had so many questions running on my mind.
Why did the SWAT act so incompetent? Do they realize that they are dealing with hostage-taker has a good two-decades plus of police experience behind him? What kind of training and equipment are the SWAT teams getting?

This week is a bit different from all the other weeks that I had. This time I became conscious of myself. This time I seriously, really want to lose weight.
Losing my weight back to around 50 kilograms was one of the things that I promised myself to do at the start of the year. That was my weight after giving birth to my only kid. I really wished I could show a picture of me during that time, but unfortunately I wasn’t even earning enough that to even buy myself a decent camera.
I now weigh a little over 70 kilograms!

I knew it would happen eventually. It’s inevitable. It’s a fact of life.
I am talking about my daughter having her ‘visitor.’
No, I am not talking about suitors. Those I can deal with, I have a nine-inch blade sharpened regularly for those eventualities, and I intend to hang the blade in clear view in the Sala if there are those types of visitors in the house.

I am talking about the monthly regular ‘visitor.’ You know, the one where there is blood flowing out of the female body, from ‘you know where.’ The one they called…. can I write menstruation here?

Once upon a time, hot single chicks stopped being hot when they decide to marry, have kids and live with the hope of having a happily ever after family life. These new moms stopped worrying about their appearance and became less prettier than they were single. That was also something I observed when showbiz moms traded their two-piece bikinis for a more conservative outfit. Most showbiz moms are away from the public eye when they get pregnant.
That was once the impression that I had on mothers when I was a little girl.
