This Filipino mom didn't use to believe it when other Filipino moms said that they had become forgetful because of their CS. But after having three C-sections myself, I'm inclined to change my mind. Perhaps all that anesthesia does have an effect on one's memory, because these days, I find myself forgetting more and more things.
One of the last things I've forgotten is the reason why I'm taking up MA in English studies.
Make no mistake: I love taking up English studies. I'm having a ball attending my classes. In fact, for the first time in my life, I feel a pain in my gut when I skip a class -- which I only do in extreme situations, like when all of my three kids have been vomiting for the past 24 hours, or the sales team in France needs to present a product that our team was assigned to prepare about four hours earlier and due in the next two hours.
So having clarified that I love my English classes, I return to my main point: I can't remember why I'm in the English studies program.
When I do remember, I'll update you.
If I don't remember, then this Filipino mom will probably be taking up IT next year.
