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.

Carl. We've been together since the beginning. He was my first. He was a little heavier than the rest but I had no choice. I didn't know how to choose before. But then he was all right (except for causing me that tennis-elbow when I was in training). We've been through a lot. He's been through a lot (clashed on his kind, cut strings, bruises, etc). We've fought together against much stronger people. No, we haven't brought home a gold yet. And probably we'll never be able to because I am leaving him now. But I'm keeping him. I'm afraid he no longer exist in the market.

Dun Meet Dun, my new partner, together with Ti. He came on my 30th birthday from one of my surrogate fathers in the U.S. (thanks po).

Dun (Dunlop Tigraphite 300xl) is lighter than Ti (RSL Millenium Heat Ti 4800), as Ti is lighter than Carl (Carlton Powerflex 100 Ti).

Dun is longer than Carl and Ti. I will have to adjust using him.

And tonight, since my apple pie hasn't arrived yet (Ynzal said it will get to them tomorrow and I could call to confirm if I can pick it up on Saturday), I decided to play some games of badminton, for the last time this year. I have to leave Carl behind (it'll be our first time to part in my games) because my racket bag could only carry two and I cannot leave Ti behind.

Oh well... I have got to do a lot of stretching tho' since I haven't played for months already.

See you in court, E!
