    How I survive my every day as a single working mom

    Questions from readers: Though I’m not yet a mom, you really inspire me. You’re one of the toughest persons I know. How do you handle all the responsibilities alone? I am super duper thankful to you, guys, for making me feel stronger and braver surviving this single working mom life. We’re not really close, but thank you for letting me know that 1) you read my blog (haha!) and 2) I inspire people with my stories. Well, I have to admit that it’s really hard to pilot a ship alone. In fact, it makes me feel like I’m almost losing myself. But thanks to my job(s) which I love, my…

    Looking back before 2018 ends *heart emoji*

    It’s already Christmas! I know we are not certain all bout Jesus’ birthdate, but most of us are celebrating life, joy, and love in Jesus’ name. ‘Tis the season for forgiveness and making peace, showering love, and gift giving. And speaking of gifts, this is the first time I gave little gifts to the people in the office who were always there for us, making us safe and comfortable. It may be a little thing, but really, it is a big tick to my bucket list – to give back at least in simple ways. Thank God for the continuous blessings that I am more than willing to share! By…

    So how’s the new mom? + some things worth sharing

    My daughter just turned three months last week but I actually thought it was at least six months already. With my new alarm clock, I can barely sleep plus new roles in my job plus tool transitions and configurations, plus one new group of bloggers I just joined plus I recently just had an accident and my left knee was badly affected plus my mom got sick. So yea, basically, my days and weeks became longer. So if you are to ask how I manage my time: I cry for like 24 hours a day. I honestly hate it when people say “take a nap while your baby’s sleeping”. Newsflash: when I’m at…

ABOUT

themhayonnaise profile readingHi, I’m May! I’m a single mom from Manila, Philippines, and when I’m not working full-time as a Compliance Manager, you’ll probably find me lost in a book, exploring new places, tasting dishes, or working on creative projects.
