My long time online friend, Arlene, who eventually became a friend IRL visited me here in Subic last year. Traditionally, we always bring pasalubong for a friend we are visiting and Arlene did not fail to do that.

Before 9pm, I should tuck her in to bed, otherwise I won’t be able to do my online tasks peacefully.

I survived for a year until I saw my daughter making milk for herself. At 3 years old she was so independent that when I doze off to sleep, after a couple of times trying to wake me up for milk, she just stopped and made one for herself.
