Olympian Mom Speaks Out

I used to be a track and field player.. it was not something that I was born with.. it just came suddenly and as sudden as it came, I was off the track that fast too. I guess I was not destined to be a track and field player, maybe I was destined to be an Olympian mom, just like Momsky or Jessica Ennis’ mom:

When the time comes that my kids would need my support, sports wise or not, I can promise to them that I will be there.. well for me, it is a privilege for us moms to be there with our kids.. to be able to show them our love, support and cheer for them.

That reminds me of the time when I did not sleep for 2 days just to finish my first born’s campaign paraphernalia.. exhausted, tired and cranky.. but when my son said thank you, it was more than enough to take my tiredness and crankiness away.

I Will Drive, Maybe

I said, I will bake, maybe or I will drive.. maybe

Driving and baking are two things that I don’t think I can include on my skills list, not for the moment, maybe in the near future. I told you, baking to me is overwhelming and driving, well, I still have to convince myself that I can drive, patiently.

My husband has been telling me to learn how to drive, go get a student’s licence then later on a driver’s license. And here are my dilemmas so far:

I still have to fix my name on my birth certificate. It turns out that the name I have been using is not my name at all. It’s not that bad, it just so happens that my name is actually Filipinas and not Pilipinas (oops! did I just blurted out my name?!? argh!). Emphasis on the F and the P. I will not dwell on how it happened, it’s a long story and I have my mother to blame. Driver’s license is a big deal, it is recognized as an official ID and I wan my name with the P to appear on it. It’s not hard to get a driver’s license right? You just need to bring the necessary document. But yeah, I have to fix my NAME first!

I have a patience of a bull and I am not sure if I can hold my temper whenever a motorist tries to steal my road. And with me being OC and all, how can I drive here in the city? Maybe a countryside driving can convince me to learn how to drive.

I have no car! We do have a car but it’s his and not mine. If ever I will learn how to drive, of course I would want to drive my own car.

Driving has many advantages of course, If I knew how to drive, I can drive the kids to their school and I do not have to rely on the school serve. I can do errands by myself or when I need to go out, I can without having to worry where to ride or commuting via public transpo.

I guess in due time, I will have to learn how to drive. Or it maybe sooner, when the time comes that a driver’s license will function more than a driver’s license. I heard that in some countries, enhanced driver’s license is being used for identity and security, almost replacing the use of passport.. now that sounds promising! or if time comes where our driver’s license will also serve a smart card, an ATM or debit card, that will be my cue. Nay, pakiayos na ang birth certificate koooohhh..

But the real question is: Are we ready for a driver’s license card that offers more?
