This is Myra Tan
With her origins being in the Philippines and a strong work ethic (to boot) Myra may be the hardest working No Fly Zoner that we have (I know, I know we say that all the time, but this time we mean it!)
Myra works from 8 to 5 then 6 until 2 a.m. six days a week! I dare any of our readers to top that! “It is exhausting at times,” says Myra . “But I eat right and get as much sleep as possible when possible, so it all works out. By the way I loved that nutritionist that you featured last week, I have already booked an appointment to see her on my day off, so I'll let you know how it goes.”
What we noticed about Myra is that it's true passion driving her to work the insane hours. “I do what I love to do, my problem is that I love two totally different things.” She chuckles to herself, “On one hand I enjoy the work I do with designing and laying out decor for stores, and on the other hand I enjoy interacting with all of the creative artistic people that I get to work with every day.”
Working nearly 100 hours a week may seem like it would be too much handle, but after we met with Myra, we discovered that her energy is boundless and she even managed to out last us on this particular evening. “When you are set in a routine of being up, you just tend to get used to it. Some people work out to stay fit, I just work.”
It seems to be working just fine for her right now, but when we asked about a significant other she told us all about coming from a very strict Filipino family and her being limited by who her family would like to see her date. “Of course they only want me to date Filipino men, but I'll date who I want, they just may not hear about it, and besides who has time to date anyway??”
To that we would like to pose a challenge to all of our male Filipino readers that live in this neighborhood of neighborhoods. If you can catch Myra (and I am not going to tell you it would be easy by any stretch) but if you can, you may just be the luckiest, if not the fastest man we know.
