Today... was very chaotic!

1) I did a marathon coaching today since it's the last day of work week...thank God I got done on time.

2) Next, onto the series of orientation which I had to attend..took me about 2 hours.

3) Third, breezed to Cordova in Mactan for the choirs costume. I had to ask permission from my manager to have an agent drive me to the "sastre". Even with minimal traffic, it took us almost 2 hours to get back to the office!I only stayed in the sastre's shop for 5 mins max! whew!

4) Got back in time for my team's weekly meeting...started out with the updates, then to the more fun stuff...kris kringle! yey! That day was the last "something-something" we have till the team Christmas Par-tay! The gifts were wrapped nicely this time...a sign which meant that everyone is very excited for the final kris kringle next week(hopefully)! It was dampened a bit by some "asungot"

" who got really irritated by our noise daw..."have u had a kris kringle before where you have to use sign language? ...didn't think so! OR you forgot how it is "inside" since you've been so busy with extra curricular stuff that you're not so used to it anymore?! so quit your whining and make your agents happy like I do! so there I said it! But nonetheless, me and my agents had fun that day!

5)Anyhow, went out of the office swiftly for my exam. I'm really nervous coz I have not reviewed the notes well...125 items...

6)Went to the mall after and saw some people so busy creating designer trees...it was oh so lovely, looks like a masquerade theme with lots of masks and feathers in different colors! Met up with dear BF who also took pictures! hihihi! I will post it soon!

...and went home afterwards...so chaotic today yet fulfilled!

Edit: was asked to render OT that night...went back to the office for a couple of hours and met up with friends at Starbucks IT park at dawn....so yeah...crazy and chaotic!

November has been extremely busy for me...I haven't had time to update this blog lately...and it looks lonely.

Last weekend, I had a fancy lunch date with no other than dear BF.We went to Olio in Crossroads, Banilad and had steak! Yeah, that big, fat, juicy, artery-clogging, medium well, prime rib eye angus steak! Yum! Would definitely go back their soon! Pictures though are still in dear BF's pda. I forgot to bring my Cannon. Olio can be reached at (032)232-3859 for reservations.

We headed after to Seattles Best in Ayala to meet up with dear BF's hometown friend (he's from Davao City) who was attending a Honda event in Parkmall - to which we went to later that night.

It was definitely a nice day for a day out, cloudy skies and no screaming sun. It was one of those days, where you could just sit back and relax... :0

Joining in the caravan of countless reports, journal and blogs about the greatest boxer of our time - Manny Pacquiao! - here's my humble take.

Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao won the Welterweight belt on the 7th division, by a TKO after pounding Cotto 55 seconds to the 12th round.

Cotto, the 27 year-old fighter from Puerto Rico was qouted saying "I didn't know from where the punches were coming ". Cotto's wife and child, who were at the ringside during the fight left after the 9th round, unable to take the beatings anymore but was seen later that night accompanying Cotto for a post-fight examination.

Pacquiao put on yet another dominating performance using his blazing speed and power from both hands to win his seventh title in seven weight classes and cement his stature as the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

GO PACMAN!

I was at my alma mater (CDU) last friday , meeting up with a classmate and a faculty...and every time I go there, a painful reality always struck me - that I haven't done a lot in almost ten years! And here I am blogging it away, instead of doing something about it. I love blogging, it's both fun and therapeutic!

I can still remember on New Year's day how sad I was upon realizing that I haven't had any major accomplishment last 2008 so I vowed that in 2009 I will do something major...ok not that big really but something that can lead to my ultimate goal...so that's why even reality bites, I went back to CDU.

Today, I was supposed to buy the sunday paper but I missed it so I logged online to a local paper and whoa...i read a few significant lines from a former boss (who is a regular contributor) which really really got me -

"in most things in life, we really have two choices: love what we do or do what we love"

- and I've realized that for the longest time, I chose the former.

Life is not perfectly laid out for most of us but what we have right now are the results of both circumstances and of the choices we have made.

I chose to work in a call center and doing freelancing on the side, for now. It ain't so bad.

And for me, I chose to be happy - however bleak the future might be.

Check out the new and fun Google design! No other than the lovable Cookie Monster!!!

I'm not really sure what's the occasion today but they must have been really happy in Mountain View, CA for putting Cookie Monster!

Enjoy!

Sometimes you feel feel like everything is perfect and you are in a good place...then suddenly everything turns upside down...

You thought you knew the person too well...then suddenly they become strangers...

There's nothing else you can do but pick up the pieces of what's left of you and move on...that's what people always say...what I want to hear is how will you stop yourself out from falling deep into the abyss...

Some couples have it all...
Some have lost it,
And some will do everything to get it back.

Here comes a hilarious movie about couples who have been there, done that and well...how to get the "fire" back on.



On a personal note, I think this applies to all who are in an exclusive relationship who have seem to have lost their touch, or got lost along the way...or simply forgot the reasons why they are in a relationship to start with.

Happy watching!

...sigh...almost at the end of the rope

I've been feeling under the weather for over a week now. My colds seems to go away and then com then come back suddenly...thanks to the "nice" weather we have...sigh. I'm not complaining, the weather is very nice here in Cebu...albeit Ondoy, Pepeng and Santi...maybe it's my body that cannot process changes in temp quickly. I have to see an EENT soon.




Good thing I have this Lipton Cranberry,Raspberry and Strawberry flavored tea on hand. I like to drink this cold like a regular iced tea but since I still have colds, I have to drink it hot!



Right now, what I'm lusting for is a big, warm bowl of chicken soup. Sigh...

I had just found out that my fave blogs list (Blog I Read) were removed from my blogger!

I experimented on changing the layout but I did not save it coz when I checked the preview...there are tons of modification to be done with the html script and I could not spare time right now ... so I clicked on cancel! But to my dismay as early as now..1:52AM...all my fave blogs were gone! sigh...and I can't remember all the links now!

Double Sigh...
