My Traffic Life

I am Mae German. 34 years old. Born in Mangatarem, province of Pangasinan. I was taught and trained by Juan Dela Cruz, and I am currently being trained for more by Uncle Sam. Writing since the age of 12. Blogging since 2001. I keep a notebook and a pen in my bag, on my bedside table, and inside the bathroom. Misses a lot. Sometimes even my own voice. Loves to laugh. Sometimes even at myself. I am a work in progress. My ultimate dream is to be a SAHM. That is, if I am bound to have that chance in this lifetime... and I am.

My Traffic Rules

Don't take my words personally. At times, not even literally. This is my journal. You're my reader. My spectator. Applaud. Yawp. Yawn. Smile. Frown. Rave. Rant. Or not. Neither can I see you from where I am standing nor can I hear you.

This is not my life. Maybe just a part of it. But this is me meandering through life. My emotions fluctuate. My opinion varies. If it's too hot in here and you can't take it, leave. If it's dull and too cold, go somewhere else for warmth. I won't wipe the frown on your brow.

My stories, unless stated otherwise, are mostly fictional. Fiction could be based on reality. Still, they are fiction. Don't own it. Don't live in it. It is what it is. Leave it.

Watch out for the traffic light. Follow the rules. Cruise.

Online status updates, blogs, chatrooms, instant messaging, text alert systems... This generation and the future have lots to brag about when it comes to high-tech means of (mass) communication. Heck, I can even talk to my friend who looks like me in FarmTown or FarmVille (they ought to add some shops in the market, not all farmers look the same). There are even gifts and cards that you can send online just by one click. I wonder what is next. I could say, follow me in Twitter. But nope, I just turned mine off.

I still believe in the power of longhand writing, of snail mail, of gifts that doesn't cost one too much but were given after a serious contemplation. But hey, I sent my mom some photos and some of my works three weeks ago. Francis (with mom in the background) and I chatted the other day, they said they haven't got anything in the mail. Phew! Patience. I even bought two phonecards, both did not work. Bleh! And we thought the world is changing. Well, maybe the virtual world. And I would say, it is getting better. Which reminds me, I have to remind someone to apply for a debit card in the Philippines to be sent to my mom, so I can make all my money-transfer online. PayPal is my pal!
