Walking in my Tsinilas

Hello Peeps!

Thank you for taking time opening my page. Now that you are about to read everything or shall I say the half of this paragraph perhaps, even so, I still appreciate the time. Quite frankly, I get scared making myself known and just the thought of it makes me wonder, why am I doing this anyway? Well to answer that for myself I can’t ignore the fact that we find most of our answers in the internet. My little voice will be heard in some ways. I can write about something or do business. We meet people around the world just one click away. Lastly, I love the internet just that. Now that I am starting this I know I am volunteering myself for any critique you might want to throw at me and for any praises that I may deserve please feel free to brighten up my day.

About me, I am a Filipina. Born in Davao City, Philippines. My first language is visayan then tagalog. Speaking the english language is a bonus mainly because it is part of our curriculum in school. Right now I am based here in California. Married. No children as of the moment. My dashboard “Walking in my Tsinilas” is my journey from everywhere and hopefully leads to something meaningful at the end of the day. I look forward to experiences each day so I can reach out to my audience and relay what I think. What they think too. And Yeah I know, who cares what I think? Lol. That’s okay. Tsinilas ( chi - ni - las ) is a visayan term for “flip-flops”. I should’ve just put it simply slippers or flip- flops but I wanted to still be connected with my roots. As a kid, I grew up wearing my own tsinilas even if it’s sometimes worn out and sometimes when I’m lucky my mom would gladly buy me another pair of tsinilas even it’s still a week old. Tsinilas (chi- ni- las), with your lips crumpled every time you say it. I like how it is pronounced. So refreshing. So nostalgic. Looking back those years I didn’t mind having a worn out pair of “tsinilas” as long as I am happy. Wherever I go, whatever I do, I take pride to wearing my tsinilas, so to speak.
