I write, I sing. I read, I dream. I watch, I do. I seek the truth, I dance for joy, I scream in pain, I cry in sorrow. I work, I study, I play. I am a writer, a singer, a teacher, a student, a wife, a lover, a mother, a friend, a sister, a daughter, a Pinay, a cousin, a niece, a colleague, an enemy, a bitch. I laugh. I love. I live.
Vina Vidal Vicente is a writer, editor, Communications consultant cum strategist cum specialist, English teacher, and a blues singer. Her accomplishments include: finally getting her Master’s degree from the Ateneo School of Government; singing for (plus, at one time, vocal coaching) the President of the Republic of the Philippines and other officials of the government; traveling the country in cranky helicopters and other such faulty aircraft; staying wide awake (not to mention alive and kicking) all throughout 4-hour teleconferences at 6 in the morning, and talking to at least three thousand Europeans in the span of one year.
When she is not busy writing for Working Mom (and other magazines) or blogging, she is busy managing Web communications plans and producing content and collateral for Chevron’s Manila Shared Services Center. She also creates communication training modules for our fellow Filipinos, as well as sings at various gigs. She is also currently working on her first novel (that’s if she can manage to get her head out of the gutter where it is currently residing).
Vina is married to foreign press photojournalist Rolex dela Pena and now lives in the shadow of her daughter Tala Ysabel.

stumbled on your blog site on your facebook page.
how very heartening to find out that i am not alone in my mommy (mis)adventures. perhaps, it is because they are both solong anak, or because we have similar parenting styles and principles… whatever it is, makes me understand and relate to your stories a lot.
keep writing, vina. i’ll keep reading.
