| Introduction | First of all, let me introduce myself. I am Mary Antonette Borja Basbas, or simply tonet. I was born as the youngest of thirteen children - eight boys, five girls. As “bunso” I’ve always been the joy of the party, I always tell stories to my family members about who’s who and what’s what and pride myself with getting everyone’s attention. As the youngest, I was also allowed to enjoy the most of everything out of our meager life. My mom, when she was still alive, used to be amazed and at the same time abashed with my persistence. “Yan si tonet! Hindi papipigil yan!,” she would say. Yeah, maybe she knew better than to stop me from trying things. So with all her support in mind, I tried everything there is – mountain climbing, wall climbing, marathons, visited expos, watched concerts, traveled a lot, ate delicious foods and read a whole lots of books. In everything I do, I always try my best to write a little about each experience. I guess that’s all I can do as a way of telling my Mom in heaven everything I do here on earth without her. I am open-minded and adventurous. I am hardworking and persistent. I am fun loving but focused. I am an artist in my own right. |
