i am

.know be by what you see in me not by what you hear from people...

.see the heart inside me, not the face i'm masked with...

.think of me as who i am, not as somebody you want me to be...

Sick and Haunted

I didn't report for work today. I got sick, maybe because of stress, getting up early and sleeping late, add the weather too and you get a flu.

I don't have voice either. I'm having a hard time talking.

Plus the fact that my life I think is falling apart. I don't know what's really wrong and what I can do to make everything go back to normal again. My problems aren't the ones you normally hear from troubled children or from the people with nothing to eat. But I have issues too, and it makes me worry.

My problems haunt me and make me anxious for my tomorrow.

Corregidor Discovery

Sure thing I'm part of a pioneering BPO. But I didn't realize that I get to do a lot of things for free because I am simply part of the first batch - oh well, that's how I'd like to put it - not necessarily and entirely TRUE.

Anyway, today I get to go to Corregidor! It's my first time and I really enjoyed it. It wasn't too hot at all today so I thank God for that. Marvin and I had an anticipating mass yesterday so I am very happy to just spend the Sunday touring. :)

Our day began at 7AM (but I was awake at 4AM). We all met at CCP Bay Area Terminal and at 8AM - we headed to our ferry which brought us to Corregidor.

I'll blog the rest of the details when I have the time ok. :)

A Friday to Remember

Today God made me realize another miracle of life.



For the many reasons I love my job, it would be my students who I have always been thankful for. I guess because I'm naturally shy, naisip siguro ni Lord na hindi ako matuto sa buhay so he made me a trainer so I get to learn LIFE through my students and the people na nakakasalamuha ko every time I have a class.



I had countless classess na over the years and yes, I am very thankful for each of the learning experiences I encounter.



To Janice, Bam, Ann, Margot, Leslie, Francis, Arthur, Rael, James, Ariel, Meng, Marissa, Brie, Yna, Adele, Aki, Venice, Edward, Boom, Rommel and Jules --- thank you for unselfishly sharing everything. You pretty much know what I'm talking about.

My deepest and warmest gratitude.

I Hate Being Late!!

I got home 12:30 AM last night because of the unpredictable weather. Badtrip. Baha sa buendia, can you imagine. I was alone and dripping wet that night. I was exhausted but was patient as I need to just go home. Gosh, dahil sa baha, 3 hours ata akong stranded sa BUENDIA alone. Then i took the jeep papuntang blumentritt. Ok. nakarating naman ako sa bahay ng maluwalhati. :p

I had dinner, cleaned myself before I went to bed. I made sure I have my alarm ready by 4AM because my first BIG day will start tomorrow. And then I slept.

I woke up 6:30 AM!!! I can't believe it. My call time is supposedly before 7AM but I overslept or maybe I didn't even hear the alarm clock. Stupid mistake talaga. Marvin called me lang kaya ako nagising. Imaginin mo - nagising ako 6:30, I was out of the house by 6:45 - naligo naman ako noh. I didn't know what to do.

But I showed up. My manager took over the class for the meantime. But I was devastated today. haaaaaaaaaay, sana me mangyaring maganda towards the end of the week para makabawi.

I hate being like this. It has not happened to me in years, and I mean in years ---- God Bless me na lang.

whew

my blog's layout is back and fixed. i didn't realize it was just that easy. anyway, haven't been blog hopping yet, will do soon. :)

tired and sleepy, - and still irregularly blogging.

here's my favorite song of the week









Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you've always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste
But you just can't touch

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

You believe and you doubt
You're confused, you got it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours
If they only knew

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
when you need to find the strength
It's the faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

What's Up?

Ok.. so I heard so many news while I was away.
Let me update lang po my blog...

1. My blog has officially been damaged. Bloggertricks is suffering from bandwidth crisis so the background images of my blog aren't showing anymore. So YES, i might have to find another template soon. Sigh.
2. Ely's concert has been cut short for a lot of reasons. I was shocked to hear that her mom passed away. Naisip ko nga, pano sya magcoconcert kung nawalan siya ng mahal sa buhay? Hindi nakakapagtaka na hindi niya kaya magconcert that day. His mom is my father's cousin. Ely is technically my second cousin. We couldn't do anything for him at this point but their family is always included in our prayers. We support you. We are wishing and hoping that you get well soon. I wish the entire family can cope up with the loss. God Bless.
   
3. Francis M has leukemia. Hmmmm, when I can watch Eat Bulaga before, I would always comment namumutla si Francis sa tv. I didn't pay attention, but I would normally tell my sister that - maputla ang rehistro nia sa TV - un na pala un. Me sakit na pala sya. Our prayers din po. Hope you get well soon.
4. My brother is now assigned in Bacoor, Cavite. He goes home every weekend.
5. My back pays aren't processed yet. Hay. I need moolah.
6. Today is my first day at work again. Half Day - weeeeeeeeeeh. :)

My back tracks are being created pa. They have already been composed as drafts but I can't publish them kasi I need pics sana.

Manila Here We Come

After having dinner, I rushed to the nearest restroom to freshen up.

After which, marathon na naman papuntang waiting area where we get to board. Hay, finally talaga. I didn't forget to buy water and chocolates to aid me in this long trip.

Fifteen minutes before 10PM which is supposed to be our boarding time sa plane, someone announced that we aren't stopping at GUAM anymore, and that instead of 10PM, our boarding time will be 11na. Ay, mega text naman ang majority of the Filipinos na kasama namen. Ako for one texted my family kasi they will be picking me up from the Airport. Hehe, sabi ni Seset they shouldn't be doing that on a last minute basis. Anyway, ok na din kasi straight ang byahe, no need to refuel - which might mean - magaang kami or konti lang passengers.

Akalain mo, when we were inside the plane na - andami ngang bakanteng seats. Hehe, ung iba na walang katabi eh humiga sa mga 4 seater na upuan - good for them. ako? keber kahit nakaupo na natutulog - i'm happy.

ayun, we endured 13hours flight from LAX to Manila.

3:45, the plane landed. It was almost 5AM when I got out of the airport and met Mama and Kuya. :)

welcome back to Manila!
