Feature Story: Proud of Myself...Thanks to Mom!

Photo Credit

It was around the same time last year when I decided to enroll in a swim class so I could venture in the three-discipline sport, Triathlon. I had a bmx bike in 6th grade and had already been running for 2 years but avoided any body of water that's deeper than my height all my life. In fact, when a bully classmate in college pushed me into the pool during our acquaintance party, four people ended up rescuing me. And it further aggravated my fear of deep bodies of water. I don't believe that you can't teach old dogs new tricks but for old dogs like me, learning new tricks is still a challenge up to now.

Although I'm not yet at par with average triathletes when it comes to swimming (in fact I was one of the slowest in the recently concluded Durianman 51.5), I could say I'm a work in progress---and today's event was a testament to that. With the help of my TRIAD (Triathlon Association of Davao) family, I was able to cross the Pakiputan Strait, a channel for sea vessels coming to and from Davao Gulf.  Yes, I swam from Davao City side of the channel across to the Island Garden City of Samal!

To own a house and lot is one of the greatest achievements we can have in life. We feel so proud to have something tangible to own, something like a property, something that costs us our hard earned money.  That's why before we even invest, we make sure that we are making a GOOD INVESTMENT, so that our money will not go to waste. What else can be good than having a house of your own, or owning a piece of land?
