Quote for the Day: life's choices

Let me share this quote I came upon while browsing through the status updates in Facebook (teehee):

As I was making this post, I received a mail from a Daphy that contains a link to a website (The Brown Raise Movement). I just realized this day commemorates the People Power Revolution of 1986. As I browse through the said site, it suddenly dawns on me how different the Filipinos of today compared to those during the time of Jose Rizal. The sense of nationalism is entirely different.

We are so focused on the actions of our government - who made a deal with who, who should be impeached, conducting investigations as to who is at fault - its totally a waste of time. When in fact, we should focus on what we could do for the nation as a whole (and I don't mean going on a rally of some sort to impeach this and that).

I believe if we really want to change as a nation, we should start the change within ourselves. We are so bent in changing other people, we forget the things we need to change within ourselves. They say Filipinos are hardworking, I say Filipinos are lazy. Why do I say this? I'll explain this more on my next post or so... :)

Scrappin’ Mondaze #3

Week 3 of Scrappin Mandaze and I was early in creating this layout. I made this last night out of sheer boredom and Z was already “reminding” me yesterday to make my LO for this week. Gah! Do I really have a choice? Teehee…

This week I wanted to make a LO for my niece Nica Cassiopeia. She’s my cousin’s 10-year-old daughter. She’s a bit big for her age. Well that’s an understatement since she weighs around 130 lbs! But I love this kid. I still can’t believe she’s all grown up now. I can still remember babysitting for her several years back when her mom is away on a trip. Oh well time flies.

Confident Not!

It’s been a while since I wore a dress or a skirt. So this morning, I decided to wear a dress for church. It felt good dressing up and looking like a lady once in a while. :) I'm the type that wears jeans and shirts almost every day (ok, nowadays a dressy blouse).

Anyway, EMA and I were buying some groceries after church this morning and we met one of his friends just outside the store. They exchanged their hellos and the friend suddenly asked how many kids we have? Gah! I couldn’t help but wonder if I look like a mother or someone who just gave birth? I didn’t mention this to EMA because I know he’ll just brush it off as nothing (men!). Anyway, up until now I keep staring at myself in the mirror wondering if I do look like someone who has kids.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have anything against mothers and kids. In fact I want to be one (someday..). But the idea that I already look like one when in fact I’m not is just depressing.

I know I’m not that thin like I used to (way back in high school.. haha) but I’m pretty sure I’m not that fat. Am I really that fat or something? *sigh* there goes my confidence down the drain.

of bookworms and couch potatoes

I was tagged in this note in Facebook by one (or two) of my friends. But I decided not to post it there (sorry guys!). Anyway, it contains a list of more than 200 movies and I’m supposed to mark the ones that I have seen. Supposedly if I have seen around 80 or so movies on that list, it means I have no life. Gah! Out of the 239 movies on that list, I have seen 163 of them. I can still list down a hundred or so movies that I have seen that are not found on that list. Does that mean I don’t have a life?! Nah! I don’t think so. :) I just enjoy watching movies – whatever genre it is. It’s my way of relaxing after a long day’s work. :)

Aside from being a movie buff, I’m also a bookworm. I love curling up in my bed and read a book, especially on rainy nights. I’m weird, I know. But I do have a life aside from books and movies (and my PC). :) Now why do I sound like a geek or something.

But seriously, I’m not an introvert and I’m not the opposite either. Maybe I’m somewhere in between. I basically go with what I feel like doing. Ok enough about this! I’m talking aimlessly I know. I’m just thinking out loud ok? Gotta get back to work. Bye!

Scrappin’ Mondaze #2

This is my second entry for Z's meme. Since I'm a very good friend (as if I have a choice! teehee), I'm making another scrap thingy for this week. Here's my scrappy thingy..

Photos were taken when E.M.A. and I went to Bohol. I think this was my first trip with him. *sigh* I miss taking long trips and visiting new places with E.M.A. It's been a year or so since our last vacation together. Oh well.. work now, play later I guess.. *sigh*

Hearts Day

I just love surprises! I received long-stemmed red roses, a cute Tiffany bear and a card from E.M.A. It really is a surprise for me ‘cause I never expected anything from him this Valentines. He’s not the type to go mushy but he knows I love surprises.

The funny thing is he scheduled for them to be delivered first thing in the morning of February 14, but they were delivered on the 13th. :D He was the one who was surprised when I called him and said my million thank yous! Anyway, he wanted to surprise me more by coming home today but decided not to when I told him yesterday that trips were canceled because of the bad weather. Oh well.. but I’m still so happy. I love the words he himself added in the card. *blush* (seriously, I cried!) haha! Never thought I could be this sentimental over a card. :P

Bubu - my littlest teddy bear.. :)

So anyway, I’m wishing you all a Happy Valentines Day!

wishing wells and magic spells

I have a bad case of LSS (“last song syndrome”) since last night. I think I even hummed it in my dreams! :D The bad thing is I couldn’t remember the title and artist of the song. Anyway, I Googled a few lines which I remembered and to my delight I found it!

The song is titled Wishing Wells by Eraserheads. I haven’t heard this song for about a decade or more and it just came into my mind.

I'm adding the lyrics of the song so you could sing along (if you want). :)

Wishing Wells - Eraserheads

CHORUS
I wish i could go back to those fairy book tales
Forget the real world a while and seek the seas of the talking whales
A place called wishing wells and magic spells (2x)
Where everything starts out a once upon an time, long long ago
and lives happily ever after.....aha ha...yeah yeah!

I could go up hill and run with Jill
The Giant could smell I'm no English man
Cinderella danced with me at the ball
I told the Queen of Hearts about my plan
I traveled the wonderland with Alice
I met with Snow White in the woods
I flew with Peter Pan in Neverneverland
Picked some berries with Ms. Red Riding Hood

Repeat Chorus

I could be an outlaw in the west
Save damsels in distress
You could sleep a thousand years
I will wake you up with a kiss
We'll swim the seven seas
We can make love more than twice
Fly like dragons in the skies
We could hang around on trees
Buzz around like bees
We can make some honey, We don't need no money baby
Just turn your back, You'll see jumpin' jellybean sack
Just wait for me Jack I'll be back, I'll be back

Repeat Chorus

A place called wishing wells and magic spells (3x)
Where everything starts out a once upon an time, long long ago
and lives happily ever after.....aha ha...yeah yeah!

Incidentally I also took a photo of a "wishing well" when we went up to the mountains of Mabinay. :)

Scrappin’ Mondaze #1

I'm not really an "artsy" person, but sometimes when I got nothing to do I sometimes "try" (emphasis on the try) to be one. Oh well, because Valentines Day is just a few days away, I decided to go along with the theme.

(click on photo for a larger image)

I don't know anything about Photoshop and the like so I just made this from an online scrapping tool - Scrapblog. So.. what do you think? Did I pass? :)

GLOBELINES SUCKS!!!

Let me just share my rant. Actually I sent this to Globelines a while ago. And posted this anywhere I can. Forgive the spelling and grammatical errors. I was fuming mad while writing this.. and my hands were shaking (actually that's my usual reaction when I'm really mad). Anyway.. here goes..

To Whom It May Concern:

I've been having problems with my internet connection for two weeks now. I keep calling your Customer Support and they are utterly useless! They couldn't even provide much help. One of them told me that there's a problem with my BROWSER that's why I can't open websites (all 3 of my browsers?! WTF?! Puuhllleease explain this to me!). I asked for help and assistance and he just told me that I WOULD BE THE ONE TO FIX IT NOT HIM! Now what kind of CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE IS THAT?

You are paying these people to handle customer complaints and help out anyway they can, and he REFUSED to help! Your internet service is a joke. Your Customer Support is of no use at all! If you cannot provide GOOD INTERNET SERVICES, then AT LEAST tell your Customer Service Representatives to be HELPFUL!!!

You certainly will lose your customers if you continue this kind of services.

I asked him if they are still having problems with their system or something, and he just told me that the problem is with my browsers. Gah! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! I said this before and let me say it again GLOBELINES EFFIN SUCKS!!!

Because I had a bad day

Bad days are normal for all of us, but yesterday was just terrible for me. Let me summarize it through this:

7:30 – Started early to prepare for a meeting at 8 o’clock
7:50 – Internet connection started breaking and boss was already asking if I’m ready for the meeting
8:00 – No connection (damn!)
8:15 – Was able to connect for a few minutes (thank God I was able to inform the big bosses that I was having a problem with my connection)
8:30 – Got disconnected from the meeting
8:40 – Got connected again (insert sarcastic "Yay!" here)
8:50 – Got disconnected again! (Gah! I wanted to wring someone’s neck!)
8:53 – Got connected again, and received a message from the boss that I can just upload my report since I keep on getting disconnected and the meeting is almost over (this time I wanted to yell at someone, preferably someone from Globelines)
9:00 – Called Globelines Customer Service and yelled at the CS Representative (who didn’t even know anything! Hmph!)
9:30–11:00 – Connection back again but still very $h!tty!
11:15 – Got disconnected again! Called Globelines CS again! And yelled at someone again!
11:30 – I gave up. Prepared lunch and waited.
12:00 – Took my lunch and after that I check if there’s a connection.
12:15 – Started working again because connection was back and running
1:05 – (as in, that’s the exact time) Got disconnected again. Called Globlines CS again! And yelled at someone again! Sheesh! What a beautiful day for me.
1:15 – (or whatever time that was) I finally gave up. Turned off my PC and slept! Hahah!
3:00 – Made macaroons! And the rest of my afternoon was watching movies, baking, and eating. Yay for me!


The first half of my day was horrible. But at least I was still productive in the end right? Lurchie finally sent me a text message asking if I'm ok. (Zee and her were already wondering where I was). Teehee.. Thanks for the concern you guys! I’m ok. I just wanted to relax for a bit.

Driven to Dream?

I’ve been having this same dream lately – one that involves me behind the wheel of a car/truck/van (I can’t still figure it out yet but definitely a vehicle of some sort) and something about the sea. Well I’ve been dreaming of the sea since last year I think but lately, dreams of driving have been occurring. I don’t even know how to drive a car, not even a motorcycle. Maybe it’s my unconscious telling me to start learning how to drive? :) I was planning to enroll in a driving school before, but I think I didn’t have the guts to go behind the wheel. Chicken!

Anyway, I found these two interpretations on dreams about driving.

1. The need or desire to throw all the dreamer's energy into a particular goal.
2. The feeling of having no choice as to how to proceed in a given situation—in short, of being "driven." If the dreamer is not the driver, he should consider who is doing it

Hmmm… Well this is an eye opener! Ok so I don’t exactly have plans goals yet (or maybe I do, but I’m just too chicken to admit it. doh!) Or maybe I’m just confused on how to proceed with the “things” in my life.

Oh well I’m just focusing too much on these dreams. Like they always say “Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.”

I'm back!

Hello world! I’m back from the land of the dead. I was on a blog hiatus for about two months and I think it’s time to come back and try to make some sense in this world. Lurchie has been hounding me to start blogging again and well now here I am (hopefully..)

I’m still on the stage of gathering my thoughts (and ideas?) so please bear with me. I won’t promise anything yet, but I’ll try as much as I can not to let this little space of mine die. :)
