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.

Send a Gift

To LYN: Really now, how did you know that I wanted to have this kind of map?! I wonder, have you been looking into my wallet where a worn map is hiding?

Yes, I have one in my wallet. It's a small map with very tiny texts and because it has been folded many times, some texts are missing now. But I keep it anyway. I take it out to check on the location of the states here in the US, followed by a voice in my head that would say, "Someday, I'll go and check out this place/state..."

Again, to LYN, Thank You for the gifts (and the thought!), especially for the map. I will treasure it, believe me. You don't know how much I appreciate it-- but to give you an idea: it's going to be the last thing that I will be holding and staring at each night.

Hmmm... there's a train going to Pennsylvania from New York, maybe I should start planning my trip to Ohio soon, huh? Libre mangarap, friend! But you know when my itch for travel starts, I might be on my train ride going to your state the next day. *Dear Santa...*

Actually, I haven't really figured out how I'd get there via train ride and/or bus ride, but Virginia and Washington DC are waving at me these days... *wink*
