General Interests
I love & enjoy anything "creative". And that's both from the perspective as participant or spectator! Willing to try most anything at least once, that being said, I've got a huge streak of being a control freak and being a perfectionst ~> but have learned at times those details are really not that important. I want and attempt to not live life NOT by default ~> realizing that "all things do work for the good for those who love the Lord". This life has so much to offer and I endulge myself through by simply experiencing life through all our senses ~> still working on things I want to experince and have been too scared to just let go ... I really do love life as it presents itself, I don't believe in coincidence or disposble people.
it's like watching someone build a mouse trap!

Each day is a present, ther those that are just trying to live life ... and those who live life to learn. We are always told to live life looking at the cup half full; but what does that mean to you? Can you truly see the blessing and "talent" that God has covered your life with ...

Music Interests
Music has always been a "huge" part of my life. As part of my "traditional" upbringing I had formal lessons in dance, piano and voice (thx to my Lola<~ Grandma & private school in the Philippines) After we returned stateside I picked up the flute also, maintaining all the rest. It was not unusual for my activites to include drama; choir; marching, concert & pep band; and dance team <~ sprinkle in my personal interest of sports of course cause everything else was micro-managed by my father who was a double Phd in Botany & Mycology from Penn State (this is where the sports influence started! love football ~> basketball) This of course had to balanced with the academic ~ > which was never allowed to falter lower than a solid B+ average .
Can you see the "A" type personality and AR/OCD tendencies stream through my daily life. I was always at school by 7:30 am for somethin' ~ > and never done by seven!!! There a HUGE STREAK of a lofty artistic flare through all of this yet when you look at the definition it does address the skillful workmansip any project encompasses!
Tho~> I don't write, compose, play or sing (not well anymore ~ > explanation to come) as often anymore. Still definately dance (choreographed throughout my entire life) ~~> am still in the mix of things. It's a love that will always be there!
These days, I'M BUZY ... teaching my 2 boyz the love of performing and appreciating music & the universal language that it sings. Harrison Plays the piano, & Hayden plays the Cello. We've also all decided to learn to play the guitar. It's going slow.
Definitely, prefer to listen (in person) LIVE ... versus Studio: It really depends on the mood. Been to everything from heavy metal, opera, classical to Rap. Just gotta be able to"BOUNCE"!
WHO DO I/we LISTEN TO???
WE ARE TOTAL tobyMac FREAKS. I've been taking my boyz to live concerts for the past three years ...
#1 Favorite ARTIST: tobyMac & the Diverse City Band ! (Who's network are we we on Baby?!?!) WE own every single album, and video!
Been Exploring the DIVERSE CITY Band also,<~ individually, the band has amazing talent also.
I also enjoy ...Casting Crowns, DC talk (given),Brandon Heath, B. Reith, Mercy Me, SuperChick, Kutless, Sanctus Real, KJ-52, Jeremy Camp, Third Day, U2 - The Fray, really too many to name ...
Sting, SADE, Lenny Kravitz, David Bowie, Nin, Ben Harper ... INXS .. CURE, Annie Lennox, REM, Depeche Mode, James Taylor, Angel City, Army of Lovers, Dire Straits, ~~> okay I'm all over the map here ...
..'gotta think some more ... not enough time to just sit and listen but do have an extensive CD collection - trying to decide if i should move it to all digital!
This does NOT include da "Old School". I mean like I own & played the original SUgarhiLL viny, Kool and the Gang ~~>And still have it to this day ~> yeah that old ~>

Oh Yes, I am a "Flip" Jesus Freak! Every second, of every minute, of every hour for Jesus Christ ... every second, of every minute of every hour for JESUS CHRIST!
I am a stay at home Mom by circumstance, I am disabled with a degenerative lower back, bi-lateral ulnar neuropathy and a probable MS, and severe fatigue syndrome. God 's way of blessing me to be at home for my 2 young boyz Harrison 11 (has Asperger's Austism and) and Hayden (9) (who also has ADHD.
Yes, the Asian discount on age applies here 100% Filipino!--Age is a state of mind ... and life is not how breathes you take, but the ones that take your breathe away! Take time to smell the rose, and enjoy the beauty of a simple white daisy.
I still carry many of my Filipino traditions, I still speak Tagalog fluently, and am teaching it to my sons. Tho ~> I am naturalized Filipino and would describe myself as a blend of my country traditions with a very American perspective. I consider my home to be Salem, though I spent the 1st five years of my life Pennsylvania, the next 6 years in the Philippines. Returned State-side living in Santa Cruz, CA- then to settle in Salem for most of my younger years. Between that time after college and marriage, I spent time in Portland, OR, but my favorite city would have to be Seattle, Washington where I lived for several years prior to becoming a Mom! Have worked in the Cosmetic Industry as a Coordinator for just about every Specialty and Department Store (SAKS, Nordstrom, the Bon, M&F) in management. Then prior to my disability I was in the Banking industry as a Residential Loan Officer for 6 1/2 years. I believe in life-long relationships, there are no disposable people, that when you find TRUE LOVE, -- as I have heard and truly believe -- what is it to get gain the world but only to lose your soul.
I am the first to admit that I am HIGH MAINTENANCE! It's the "A" type personality. I am passionate, and loving and intense ... can comfortable from one end of the spectrum to the other. I am a girlie girl with a HUGE STREAK OF TOMBOY! .. in other words I do enjoy the finer things in life but am not scared to work for it ... I am comfortable in a"little"black evening dress and but just at ease in my Levis and a tool belt. I have learned to enjoy LIFE and it's simplest blessings!

Hey PJ, guess what? I found that song by Kirk Franklin and TobyMac from the Compassion Art thing! It's pretty good too. I finally decided to get myself a playlist, so you may see it soon! ...
All in letting go of everything I am ... tobyMac DaisyPJs63 is not into new years resolutions!
... Isn't it funny ... how much time and energy people spend on New Years resolutions, gotta loose weight, need to exercise more, eat better. Gonna shop less, not use my credit cards ... Tithe my 10% ... be a better person ... Be more outspoken for Christ! ~> and how quickly do those fall to failure. I gave up on all those promises to myself years ago when I realized that all those well made plans were doomed to failure sooner or later ... Because truly my heart is willing but the mind and body I'd weak ...
My moment of grace was realizing that I was truly no one, no where without Christ! All that I do, accomplish was truly only BY HIS GRACE (btw ~> bhg) And that everything that I am was truly also BY HIS GRACE ~> for HIm, by Him and through Him! My life has been that of a journey of discovery, amazed that God has entrusted me through so many trials ... more over having more faith in me than I do myself! But realizing and beginning to accept all that comes my way ... Believing and KNOWING that all things work for the good for those who love the Lord.
Life is not fair, it can be cruel and painful ... Bad things happen to good people, and good things happen to bad people, that's why we walk by faith and not by sight. And something my Pastor said not too long ago has really placed much of what I have gone through into perspective ... sometimes the lesson is NOT FOR YOU but for someone else, but God knew that you would come out of this stronger when the other if they had to carry the burden would falter ... An interesting concept ~> but imagine ... To be truly used as an instrument for the glory of the kingdom ... are you that shining light on the hill a midst trial and turmoil? Do others see the face of Christ when you walk through your valleys, are you able to "LET GO" of yourself enough to let Christ carry you in His arms through all of life's trials and challenges ...
This coming year ... 2009 I challenge you to let go ... give in ... and surrender yourself truly to your Lord & Savior ... and see how He uses you as an instrument for the glory of the kingdom ~> RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE ~>
Hey PJ, guess what? I found that song by Kirk Franklin and TobyMac from the Compassion Art thing! It's pretty good too. I finally decided to get myself a playlist, so you may see it soon!
