SAY hello to our Blog Addict of the Week, Alma Pasaraba of Saipan Impressions.

Could you tell us something about yourself: How old are you and what are you currently doing? When and why did you start blogging and who got you hooked?

I am thirtysomething. I am a CPA and I am currently working as the Internal Auditor and Compliance Officer in one of the banks here in Saipan. I started blogging in September 2006. I am a first time OFW and blogging has helped me cope with my homesickness. The alienation I experienced and to generally make sense out of my decision to take this job and leave my comfortable life there in the Philippines. I’ve been writing essays and I’ve been journaling since I was in grade school and blogging is basically just like journaling except that people could read what I’ve written. It’s a cathartic exercise for me.

I am Anne Margaux Mateo, Marge is what I want people to call me. I’m 22 years old, and I am at present studying. I started blogging back in 2004 after I read my friends’ blog.
