EKstreme Fun

After a year of waiting for summer and for our out-of-town vacation, which we planned last year with "hulugan/ipunan" the long wait is over... for summer, but we're still waiting for our out-of-town vacation =) Why? Simply because we can't! ahhm... yeah we can't =) No, honestly hulugan/ipunan failed therefore out-of-town failed as well =( But because we never say never, still we went OUT but not out-of-town.. We "EKsteremely" had fun at Nuvali and Enchanted Kingdom....

"We may failed the "hulugan/ipunan" but we never fail to have fun!" =)

My future began...again

And it's official I am a working girl again. After 6 months of being "tambay", yes 6 months. I am now working at Planters Development Bank.. Yeehaw! Just started last Monday February 21... after a week of training I can say that I am now enjoying the job, or should I say "I must" =)

And because I am back to reality and my future began.. again, there are certain things that I have to do that I am having a hard time doing like; waking up early in the morning: which I can't blame myself because i love to sleep. Coloring my face or putting make-up: haaay.. this was the hardest part but not as hard as waking up because I don't usually put "make up make up", I put a slight make up when I go out: powder, gloss, blush and sometimes mascara but now that I am working I need to put "make up make up" daw. Last but definitely not the least is LESS facebook and twitter: I can't believe I'm surviving each day without opening my accounts, "lola mode". I used to open my account using my phone but now I can no longer do that because addiction is prohibited during working hours. =)

On a positive note, to all those things that I am not used to do, here's one thing I can say about it: "I can do everything that I need to do as long as I really want it and I am enjoying everything".

THOUGHTS ABOUT LIFE

Things I've Learned This Year

Most of us are preparing wish list for Christmas and some are preparing their list of New Year's resolutions and some are reviewing their 2010 resolution. I thought of something different this time, instead of saying goodbye to 2010 and prepare for what I will be next year, I looked back and wrote down my own list. If Alice have her 6 Impossible things in her life in Wonderland, well I have my 6 Possible things I've learned in my life this year.

1. Quit a job the first month you feel you're not happy about it.
2. There's no easy job.. No! There is a very hard job.. Yes!
3. There are many ways to do on something you really want. (if there's a wheel there's a way)
4. Value everything and everyone around you. They may vanish in just a snap of your fingers!
5. God has a perfect reason for all the things happening in our life.
6. Never entertain negative vibes. Stay POSITIVE!

the most wonderful day of the year!

It's already December, and Christmas is just around the corner! whoooooo! I love everything about Christmas: Christmas songs, countdown, cold weather, shopping, foods, lights everywhere and most specially i love to see my two nephews enjoying our Christmas Decorations and I'm also excited to see them open their gifts!

When some TV show starts the countdown for Christmas, that's the time I started to feel the Christmas season. Christmas is my favorite day of the year, I even love it more than my birthday, because it's the day of our Savior, Jesus Christ! We must celebrate His birthday with joy, love and happiness. It's also the time to give back and share all the blessings we received the whole year with everybody. Seeing all the kids happy and most of the family are together, celebrating this special day. I can say that IT IS REALLY THE MOST WONDERFUL DAY OF THE YEAR!



May we all have a merry merry Christmas!

This one's for you!

Last week, November 23, 2010, I received a private message on my facebook account from Janice De Jesus, inviting me to go out on the 28th. Although we have planned to go out months ago. By the moment I read her message, I still asked myself; is there something wrong? new story to tell? or will she say goodbye? there's something with her message. (I dont know why but I can easily read her mind) =) Then I ask her "aalis ka na ba?" and she said "basta pumunta ka" I still want to confirm.. I read her facebook wall posts and bam! I've read this wall post from her friend "Ma-mi-miss kita ng bonggang bongga!" nothing else to ask for its official she's flying for canada! Well I'm happy for her of course she's been praying for this years now but still sad because we will be having tawanan moment through skpe and facebook... all the laughs will be: haha, whahaha, LOL etc. Anyway, ate Janice mamimiss din kita ng bonggang bongga! Thank you for all the laughs that we shared sa office, sa bank, sa hospital, sa mall, sa tricycle, sa jeep, sa bus, sa car, sa taxi, thank you also for going back to Primed for me (I know you won't kung hindi ako ang officemate mo =)) Lahat ng nahulaan ko sa buhay mo (that you never denied) will remain secret for both of us! You've been my sister for the past years and I consider you as one of my blessings in life! And again thank you girl and I will surely miss you.. See you soon!

It's the only blog I posted this month and it goes out to you Ate Janice! =)

Quirky ME

Last October 12 while listening to jumpstart with their QQ: “What’s that one quirk/characteristic about you that you think people won't understand?” I suddenly asked myself what would be my answer to that?

Then I came up to these:

I DON’T EAT “TAHO”

Don’t hate me for not liking taho I know most of PINOYs love to eat taho. I don’t even know why I don’t like the taste of it; the only thing I know is that my Grade 2 teacher should be the one to blame for this. My Grade 2 teacher tell us the story about taho, that it’s dirty and stuff, I don’t know her reasons for telling that but if she wants us to hate taho then “Congratulations Ma’am you just made it!”

I LOVE "GINISANG AMPALAYA"

I can still remember how I hate ampalaya before, as most of the girls don’t like the bitter taste of it. But eventually I learned how to eat and surprisingly love it! Maybe it helped that my mom loves to eat ampalaya too. We can always learn how to appreciate something. That's the lesson I've learned from ampalaya. ;0

3RD YEAR HIGH SCHOOL: WHEN I LEARNED HOW TO TAKE TABLET AND CAPSULE MEDICINES

This maybe too late but all I can say is: “it’s better LATE than NEVER” =) Techniques like: put the medicine in the middle of your tongue then drink a lot of water. Mommy even hide the medicine sa rice, too bad I have bitten the med and it tasted so bad. :( I can’t remember how many times we (my mom and I) tried, before I finally learned how. *sigh* But the good thing is… I learned.
