Lessons From Lola
Author: ChinMy lola came for my birthday. She was a day late for the party, but it didn’t matter. She’s the present that keeps on giving. My lola is a genius. She raised 10 kids without a nanny’s help. That, while being provincial treasurer of Bohol! I learned many things from my lola, debt consolidation and balancing accounts included. From her, I learned the following:
1. Doing laundry can be fun if you don’t think of it as a chore.
2. Never explain. To those who don’t care about you, no explanation will ever sound right. To those who care about you, no explanation is necessary.
3. Organized closet = organized mind.
4. A girl should have a well-tailored suit in her wardrobe
5. A balanced meal is one that ends with chocolate.
Of course, she taught me so much more but we’d have to be pretty tight before I’ll let you in on them.
Hi! My name is Chin, and this is where, to quote Jane Austen, I "run mad and as often as I choose."
