An update about ME

it's been awhile since I last posted a personal entry here. I'm sorry for that. I got caught up with the responsibilities of being a wife and of updating my other blogs.

Though right now, I'm awake. I need to update this blog too after all, this is the blog where I used to write everything that happened with my relationship with my husband Carlo.

I'm hard pressed, though, to think of another example like theirs. My own odyssey toward marriage definitely fit the rule and not the exception. I was painfully shy as an adolescent and teenager.

Things began to improve after I gave my life to Christ at age nineteen. My social confidence in general increased remarkably.
