Hello Anak,

How are you doing? Hope you're in a healthy condition as you read this blog.

Healthy that I may not be. Three weeks ago, I was diagnosed to be Stage 1 Hypertensive. I've had some blood tests which says high cholesterol, high sgpt, high uric, etc, etc. Somehow I can't believe all these because I know to myself that I have been very selective on the things I eat, I don't smoke and drink alcohol! Darn! So what have caused all these? Genetics. The Doctor said 95% of hypertensive cases are due to genes. Man, how bad is my genetic make-up! I got asthma from maternal side, then this from paternal side.

I can say that I don't have a choice, can't I? Well, it seems that you won't have a choice either. I just hope that your maternal genes somehow can compensate.

Anyway, I am still optimistic that the test I did today, 2D Echo, won't have any conclusion that I have angina, heart enlargement, or anythin to do with my heart. What else can I do? Well, some folks say go and be merry - drink, smoke or whatever. "Enjoy life!" I can do that why not...but Idon't have an urge to do so. I guess I will stay with my current lifestyle + do more of physical exercise. Your nanay bought me a stationary bike last week, so I hope it's a good start! :)

BTW, I just got a second job offer and waiting for the third by Monday. Just look at the grace of God. Now my head is aching as to which company will I work for next. I have signed up with IBM already, but I would want to see first the other two. Imagine, I was selected as the Project Manager of an IT company (as in hardcore IT company), called Technidata, France. The other company is TetraPak - I always thought it's a packaging technology until now. They supply the packaging materials to all food and beverages in the country and 90% across the globe. They are offering me Project Manager and Engineering Manager position folded into one. Imagine, your tatay, a TUP graduate of a course seemingly unknown to anyone, being considered to manage such companies! Thank God! :) He always will provide...

O sige anak, I will be conducting a lecture tomorrow pa sa BASF. And tomorrow is a BIG day for all of us kasi it's your GRADUATION DAY! Hehey, you've finished Nursery! I feel accomplished na already kahit nursery ka pa lang...hehehe! Congratulations anak! Konti na lang, matatapos ka rin ng College! :):):)

Ingat, I love you!

regards,
Tatay
