Joan is one of my newest followers! And I was so touched when I found out that she considers me as one of her dearests! Thank you Joan!
And here are her questions and my answers:
1. What is your greatest achievement so far and why? When I started working in 2006, my goal was to save enough money to have our house renovated because it's getting too small for our growing family. Saving was tough since I am also my family's breadwinner. But I am so thankful I was able to accomplish it last 2009. I was able to buy the small lot adjacent to our old home so we got bigger space now. Then had our then wooden house scrapped and built a now concrete house. Plus I have my own bedroom now! Home sweet home! :D
2. How do you spend your free time? Sleeping, eating, shopping with family and friends
3. To date, what has been your worst disappointment in life? My life isn't perfect but I can't think of any right now.
4. If you could start all over in life, would you change anything? Nope.
5. What are the best five words that would describe you? Loving. Sweet. Generous. Positive Thinker. Moody.
6. Cakes or rice cakes? Cakes!!
7. What is your most favorite thing about yourself? My waist?
8. To be afraid of or to be liked? To be liked.
