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.

I have said a while ago how my mom is, right now, hooked to alternative medicines. It's good. I, honestly, personally believe in this practice. I remember, as a child, how my mom would make us drink the juice of oregano leaves when we're coughing. And no matter how bad it tasted, we're taking it. But you know what, they worked. But I think that gave me a good foundation on "herbal" plants. My Science teacher had this book about plants and grass/weeds (that we usually see around us) and their medicinal uses. I remember browsing through that book and I remember really liking it.

When I started working, I instead of oregano, I drink the juice of bittersweet melon (ampalaya) leaves when I am coughing really hard. It was only lately that I thought about the what-if(s) of having an allergy on certain herbs or plants (could austin allergist help? I guess so). Then again, I realized, every person has different reaction on what we take-in even on conventional medicines.
