When I say Seiko, you say watch.. get it? uh well.. that was before I met Seiko.. not the watch you silly, but yeah when I hear the word Seiko, the first that comes into my mind is the brand of watches (and/or jewelries). Then I met the real Seiko.. more precious than any watch I have seen. The mommy behind Seiko’s Diary.
It was her name that caught my eye. It was her witty remarks on my entries that made me want to know her more. It was my envy (in a good way) to her five amazingly pretty girls that made me want to be her friend. At first I thought she was a native of Japan. Her name sounds like Japanese to me. I found out she was actually a Filipina married to a Japanese. Since I discovered her blog it has been my wiki (almost) of Japanese culture. She tells it all with much gusto and enthusiasm. She gives her readers the chance to know more about the culture there.
Entries by entries, my interest on her grows bigger. I feel like she is a mature version (I don’t want to use the term older hihi) of me. She is adventurous and have a strong beliefs on life and marriage. I envision myself doing the things she do when I am older.She is a loving mom too and very fun to be with. I give high regards to her (and an ASTIG remarks) on how cool she can be with her daughters . She let them fly on motorcycles. Isn’t that super duper cool??????
Aside form coolness, she is also a loving daughter to her mom. It melts my heart to read her entries about her mom and what more, her mom reads her blog! Now I know where she got her coolness. It’s in the genes. And her relationship with her Mother in law is great too.
Who would not want to be Seiko’s friend? And so when she asked me if we can be kumares, I was more than pleased and honored. It was a great feeling that amidst our geographical differences, our friendship blossoms. It was a very nice feeling knowing a person as sweet and friendly as Seiko. It was such an honor, calling her my kumare.
It would be fun to think that my Sati will be benefiting a lot from her five pretty ladies.. LOL

August 4, 2009 at 11:34 amI think Seiko is a straightforward type (based on her looks lang sa pics ha) of a person. But not the snub type. At hanga ako sa mga nanay na kayang mag-alaga ng apat na anak pataas. Ako nga dalawa lang anak gusto ng bumigay minsan. hehe
