welcome.

Introducing...

The princess

I feel really great when people call me princess, it makes me feel *special*. And since I can't think of a title for my personal webpage, I thought "bahala na!" Okay.. so you might be wondering, "Why princess?" or might even be thinking, "Duh! How kapal...!" Well, I actually got the title from my dad, whom I prefer to call 'papa'. I have 3 siblings, Mark (20), Mic (14), and Jady (12) obviously, all of them are boys, which means... you guessed it... I'm an only daughter. I live with my papa today (he spoils me and I'm loving it), my mama's in the US right now, you see, my parents separated when I was 9 years old. I'm not fishing for sympathy or anything, in fact, I actually believe I'm one of the luckiest girl in the world coz' I have parents who love me and my brothers. Okay, enough of that mushy stuff....

Call me....

Ira --- This is the name most people know me for. But you can also use my other nick names if you want to.

Jamielyn --- My friends from gradeschool used to call me Jamielyn. It's too long so I don't use it much.

Jamie --- Some of my friends in highschool want to use a more sophisticated name so they preferred this one.

Jam --- Some other friends of mine way back in gradeschool also call me Jam. Maybe coz' it's shorter.

I --- *ssshhh...* My first and biggest crush EVER used to call me by this nick name. *kilig*lolz.

Dieng Dieng --- This is my chinese name, some of my closest friends call me by this name. I like it too

Achi --- My younger brothers (and some of my friends) call me Achi or Atsi. It means elder sister in chinese. My friends sometimes use this coz' it is sort of malambing, I guess, not because I'm older than them. Mind you, I'm the youngest in our barkada, speaking of youngest, they sometimes call me shobe too, which means younger sister in chinese.
