Ask Me If I Care

These are just my thoughts and opinions. I try not to care so much, but I can't help it; it's just in my nature to care about those close to me. If you don't like my opinions..................ask me if I care!
Do You Believe There Is One Person In The World Made Just For You?
The first thing that comes to our mind when we are asked the same question is "soulmates". Sometimes even me I'm asking myself..,"do I have soulmates?".."does my soulmates means he will be the one I will marry & spend the rest of my life"...e ano nga ba ang soulmates? Honestly, all I know and all I believe in is God has one person He really prepared for us. All we have to do is wait for that person patiently.
What would you do for someone you love?
I would stand by his side forever...but I'm thinking is there really such a thing as "forever"? hahaha. Sometimes it's very easy to say that we will stay to their side forever but not knowing in the end that we are one of those first who left them. Better not to say any promises or just prove through actions that you can do everything for him.
Is It Ever Okay to Be Brutally Honest?
Hahahaaha...its good to be honest all the time but "brutally honest" means you're being honest and at the same time you're hurting one feelings. It's really hard to be "brutally honest" but I'd rather be brutally honest that to hurt the person in the end. Let me put this way...there's no difference if you will tell the person the truth now as in on the spot than to tell them the next morning...in short you're just prolonging agonies. Sometimes TRUTH REALLY HURTS, but its be better to hurt them today than to do it the next day...its the same,right?
What Surprises You the Most about People?
They doesn't know how to appreciate things that they have on their hand. People are oftenly craving for more on everything that they have, in short they are not contented of what they have. I admit I also like that before but after realizing how blessed and fortunate I am having the life I have today, I learned to appreciate what I have. I'm still aspiring for more...trying to reach & to have for more but the good thing on it is I found CONTENTMENT in my life now.
What Is your Ideal relationship?
Is there anything as an "ideal" in this world? hahaha. All couples, lovers...all people wants an ideal relationship but when you ask them what is ideal for them it will be summed up that its purely love as in no quarrels..no discussions..no arguements, is it possible? hahahaha. Ok let me tell you what comprises of my ideal relationship...TRUST, HONESTY, RESPECT, & LOVE. Four in one is enough for me to make the relationship ideal.
What is Your Affirmation about Yourself?
There are some things that people say that really make me feel good, like:
1. You're friendly
2. You're sweet
3. I love you.
4. You're clever
5. You're humble
6. You are so smart
7. You're beautiful
8. You deserve the best
9. You're so nice
10. You have a good taste in everything
Affirmations, whether made by someone else, or yourself, can change your life. It boosts our confidence in any aspects of what we are doing. Whether its big or even little appraisal especially coming to unexpected people really lift us.
What did you wonder about when you were a child?
I wish I was a kid again, full of curiosity and wonder.
I really enjoy talking to children especially those who are talkative & full of sense...everything look so very simple for a kid. When they ask you "bakit ?" "pano?" simple explanations will do and they just believe you.
"Why its raining?" Answer: God is crying because people are not that good
"Will I received something from Santa?" Answer: yeah you will if you will be good until he come
"Am I pretty?" Answer: of course, you our my daughter
"Can I have a brickgame?" Answer: yes you can have but you need to have good grades first
What Is Your Favorite Book?
How To Be Free in Unfree World. I just borrowed it from Rez,my classmate in college,according to her that book was owned by his uncle who passed away. The book is a story of ones life on how to live on your own and not according to what others want you to live on. To summed it up its just WE CAN LIVE OUR LIVES FREELY...WE ARE THE CONTROLLER OF OUR OWN LIVES.
Would You Rather Be Beautiful or Intelligent?
How i wish I have both..hahaha
I'd rather be smart than pretty...coz for me you can still look beautiful/pretty if you are smart & sensible.
I'd rather want to be admire because of those qualities that are not visible...intellect matters to me
Who’s Heart Have You Broken?
"Huh?? ...hmmm..who among them nga ba? hahaha. But honestly speaking I remembered when a good friend of mine admit that he's falling for me, but I just ignore it. Actually not literally ignored him but its the idea that he's going to court me I wanted to ignore. And I think he really felt bad, but good thing until now we're still friends.
What was the strangest but memorable job you have ever had?
Landed to job related to what course you finished really makes me feel fulfilled. That's why when I was given a chance to work in a government agency I was really overwhelm. Although there are companies who offerred me much higher salary I chose to stay. I have so many reasons why I really love being on that job 1. It is related to my degree 2. I had a chace to reach out those people belongs to different communities 3. I familiarize myself that our city 4. Mingle to different kind of people in the society. 4. Able to learn more & apply actually what does law says.5. Of course there's no place like home...masarap pa rin magwork in own country.
The strangest thing about me siguro is I don't give so much importance to the job salary...i mean as long as I know that its enough then that's it. I value the working environment most than the salary aspect and sympre the nature of the job. I prefer to be busy all the time than to have idle time.

Simple Things Make Smile

Sometimes when we are stressed & pressured..simple things make us ease & smiles. Lately, super stressed & pressured talaga ako, I bursted into tears already and I want to give up na..but suddenly because of this as in yup because of these "smileys" hanged by my officemates on the ceilling near my table I was relieved...and naisip ko tuloy smile jen everything will be accomplished little by little and step by step, you don't need to pressure yourself and accomplish everything in a snap.

Advertising the Party

Every month we have a monthly staff party in our company,each month will be hosted by different departments and this coming May it's our department turn again.
I was assigned to be the team leader of the Advertising Committee so meaning we're the in charge to make posters, flyers, banners or anything that will advertise regarding the detail of the Staff Party.
First picture serves as a cover page for our invitation on the Slogan - Cheering Competition to be participated by each department. We also printed an A0 banner and posted it on the lobby going to canteen





The second one is the flyer showing the name of all new staff for May 2009. Imagine 23 names...as in even HR was a little bit shocked that our company employed 23 new staffs..may cost cutting pa yan.


And the last one is the flyer naman for those who celebrating their birthdays for this month...over sa dami 42 celebrants. Magaling lang talaga ang researchers namin that's why walang nakalusot..heehehehe..meron pala a friend of mine Marvin doesn't want to be included on the list and he even begging to me & to my other officemate & friend Jen not to include his name on the list...

Just a minute

Super busy as in sooooooooppppeer and the worst thing is im STRESSED. Can't do anything coz the only outlet to released my stress (as I'm usually saying) is thru writting / blogging...but what if I'm deprived pa rin to the only outlet I have, nakakainis yon di ba...so many things to tell, so many stories, encounters & experiences to share pero since I have no time to do it today maybe I will just post it na lang on weekends (wish mo lang jen). Anyways, at least I'm slightly relieved na naman compare last week na I even bursted into tears because of having a mixed emotions due to pressures, stress and brought by the environment na rin siguro (especially those insensitive people around me). Good thing that last night my colleagues hanged some "smiley" decorations on the ceiling (looks like lantern) so everytime I see it narerelieved ako and naiisip ko na lang why should I stress myself while those persons around doesn't bothered. I have so many things on my mind that I really want to blog but I need to go coz I need to finish the invitation flyers to be used on our Staff Party, need to present it @ 5 p.m. today for the dry run...it's now 1 p.m here

Women in my Life

She's the only woman who knows me since birth...
The only woman who knows every little birth marks & scars I had...
The only woman who taught me my first word...
The only woman who guided me as I'm doing my first step...
The only woman who taught me how to read & write...
The only sister I have even from the start...
The woman who I really love & adore because of her strenght, beliefs, attitudes, views in life, love & care to her family, and her faith in God...
My sister, my friend, my shopping buddy...my MOM
Happy happy mother's day Mommy...
I love you very much...
Thank you for everything & most of all for raising me the way I am now.





Age gap didn't hinder us to be friends with each other...
Whenever we're together & someone ask you who I am you will smile & reply..."my eldest"
We started as group mates in Graduate School but until now the friendship we had become deeper & stronger...
You're the "Joe D Mango" of my life...you're not biassed instead your being truth though sometimes truth really hurts but honesty matters most...
You're my kikay mirror as even though I am half of your age we share the same taste when it comes to fashion...
I call you "Tita Ninang" as we agreed that when I got married you will be one my principal sponsor...so be ready =)
My best friend, my Tita Ninang...
Happy happy Mother's Day!
Thank you for loving me like your own


I still remember when I'm still in school, if Mommy/ Daddy cannot make it to get my report card you stand to be my guardian...that's why on the same school where you are working I was recognized by teachers as your niece. Until now that I'm working away from my Mom you're still standing to be like her by my side.
You know how much thankful I am to you for helping me to be who I am today...or should I say what I have today. I still remember the first advice you gave me when I'm still new here in Doha (actually its just I think my 1st day) "Pag sakay ng eroplano leave all those things sa Pinas...all the said things; don't expect anything kasi maraming mangyayari when you're away home.Iwanan lahat sa Pinas and focus on your new life." I know what you mean even you didn't said it directly to me. Your fullof advices that's why naman kahit in the middle of the night at di ako makatulog I will knock your door & disturb you to ask advices or prayers from you.
Tita thank you very very much... I know how I really owe you.
I love you...
Happy happy mother's day!

Rushing

"Rushing resulted to things that you don't want to accomplish"
This is my last memory quotes that until now stuck on my mind...I heard this from one celebrity this morning when he had an interview. Immediately as I heard it from him I said "yes" without hesitation naisip ko talaga that's its true.
Sometimes we have decisions in life na parang gusto nating bawiin, na why we did it or why we said it...its like nasa huli ang pagsisisi.
I have a friend who reminds me of this "rushing"..last March exactly on my birthday nagparamdam sya, at least he remember may birthday. I knew even before that he get married already but didn't hear that straight from him. Until nga nakausap ko sya, and yes he confirmed...he is married. He told me na wag daw ako tumulad sa kanya na nagmadali kaya di nya alam ngayon kung tama ba yung ginawa nya..Hindi naman siguro ako magpapakatanga na katulad mo, how sad that because of pressures (not sure) or dahil nagmadali sya, he come out to not so happy output.
But whatever excuses we have its already accomplished...its done.
So the only thing we can do is next time don't rush....

"Yes I Do Have"

Yesterday is a not so good day for me, but still I considered it as a blessings... I mean all experiences naman always serves certain lesson to us.
Let me start why I said that it's "not that good"....
I slept 12:00 midnight..two weeks in a row na akong ganito. Di ako makatulog agad even I'm tired, its either I will read Cosmo (back issue na nga, I bought in Pinas when I went for my vacation) or books or its either magsusulat ako as in manually ha kasi if open na naman my laptop baka 2:00 am na e gising na gising pa ako. Di ako masyadong nakatulog ewan ko ba kung bakit. I woke up 5:15a.m, used to it na mejo mabagal kasi ako..hehehe.
Usually @ 6:00 dapat naliligo na ako but since I found sms message on my roaming cp I called my mom,mejo napasarap ako ng kwento so a little bit delayed na ako nakaligo.
Likewise,datirati before my driver give me a miscall its either I'm already down or nasa elevator na ako but yesterday I just found out na he already miscalled me at 7:07 na pala...I'am 3 mins.late na.
On my way to office a super kulit na kapitbahay namin sa Pinas called me (he's also working here),kung alam ko lang na sya yon di ko na sinagot e company phone daw nya yon...actually distant relative ko sya,in fact he calls me "pinsan". Iniisip ko nga minsan di pa ba sya nakakahalata na ayaw ko sya kausap kasi nga we're not close naman tapos no topic to talk about naman..parang hello we're just wasting our time to talk to each other and ito pa ang kinakainis ko sa kanya he wants me o meet his officemates! halloer??? and he gave my email ad to one of them e buti naman sana kung may sense kausap yong officemate nya e naku super bagyo sa kayabangan. So dahil nga nakukulitan na ako sa "pinsan" ko daw when he asked me kung may bf na ako I said YES...Actually its not my first time to lied na may bf na ako ulit but ginagawa ko lang yon kapag nakukulitan na ako sa mga taong tanong ng tanong...just to finish the discussion sabihin ko na lang na YES I DO HAVE A BOYFRIEND. At least no questions asks after.
I txted my mom regarding that I told her na if that man tell her na I do have bf na is wag maniwala, although ok lang sa kanila actually gusto nga nila na magkabf na ulit ako. Pero ang hirap naman na ang alam nila meron then wala pala. I'm waiting for her reply but since pagdating ko pa lang sa office e super dami ng mga documents di ko napansin na dead batt na pala ang cp ko. I almost half day not on my desk sa super dami ng docs na kelngan ko icheck before & after my boss signed.
Afternoon na ng makita ko ang reply ni Mommy...actually di ko alam kung maiiyak ako sa inis or should I blame myself na sinabi ko pa sa kanya pero ok nman, I'm just sensitive nga lang siguro when the topic is regarding my ex bf. They didn't know anything about how or when or what happened why me & my ex separated and the worst they might thinking na kami pa or we're still communicating...di ko na lang sya nireplyan. Sometimes naiisip ko tuloy di ko na lang sana pinakilala yung ex ko sa family ko...hayzzz...Anyways, its over as they say past is past, the only thing I can do next time is to update my family on what the real status of my relationship is so they will not expect anything in the end.
I have something to share pa sana but I need to get away from my PC coz I need to be back at work. =)

Wedding Showbits

Last night I came home from office early hmmm around 10:00pm..yeah its still early for me I mean its just a regular time I usually got home. I turned on the tv and sympre kung saan ako at home sa TFC, and since its Sunday..."The Buzz". What's to expect than continuous news about Ryan & Judy Ann's wedding. But honestly I am really amazed also on how they come up into a "silent wedding" as in super bilib ako on how they planned it and the best thing on it..it didn't spill into public knowing that they are public personalities and much more the status of Judy Ann being the new super star of Philippine movie. Every detail is unique..from the invitations to the reception.
As I watched the interview of Boy Abunda & Kris Aquino on the bride's brother Jeffrey,who is also a Philippine actor super nakita ko how he & the rest of the family is closed to Judy Ann. He is teary eyed saying how much they will miss their "bunso". Coming from an older brother he sincerely tell to the public how he is impress to Ryan...from panliligaw up to pamamanhikan na ginawa nya up to the wedding as well. Let's admit only few brothers is usually close to their brother in law & give credit to him or appraisal.
Naisip ko tuloy what if kung ako na yung ikakasal...will my husband to be get the same compliments as Ryan got from Jeffrey? will he be close also to my family. Im not that super close to my brother kahit were only 2 siblings but in fairness naman to him he supports me & give me advices when it comes to my lovelife...sometimes its ackward kasi nga I'm the eldest. I remembered when I had my bf, sa kanya ko unang sinabi & he advised me to na ipakilala ko kina Mommy & Daddy. Likewise, he keep on saying me na "wag ko lang ikaw makikitang papaiyakin nyan"...I saw his concern on me,maybe that's also the reason why I didn't let him know how I was hurt when me & my ex separated...not even a single word until now we didn't talk about it even my Mom & Dad. And maybe they also know that I don't want to tackle that issue as well.
How I wish I have an eldest brother..pero ok na rin kahit wala kc no choice eh...
Siguro ang sarap ng feeling when your family really very vocal of saying that they will miss you when you get married kasi ibig sabihin lang non you've been good to them...
So much for that, I will just wait my turn for whatever reactions they will have 'pag andon na ako sa point na yon kasi as of now isipin ko man e wala rin kasi sabi ko nga sa Mommy ko when she's asking me kung kelan ako magpapakasal "Me, hindi nagkakasal ng magisa lang..or mahirap magpakasal ng mag-isa" hehehe

I am Blessed

Lately I have encountered so many things that made me realized how really blessed I am. Although even before I know that I am bless and I really thank the Lord for showering me those blesings.
Since I came home late from the office (much late than before)...hmm 9:30 p.m is the earliest na yata, after changing my office clothes I watch T.V muna para marelax. I love watching T.F.C, it really make me relax...I feel I'm just a few steps from my home...from Philippines. One time I'm watching WOWOWEE and yung category ng mga players is yung mga vendor and most of the contestants as I've noticed is on their retirement age (i mean they should stay home na lang sana and may mga anak naman sila na dapat sila na yung nagsustento) but still they are the one who works for their family.
Contestant A...she's a mother of a 14 year old teenager. I thought at first ok its just normal kasi minor pa naman yung anak nya until I continously wtching & found out that the 2 year old girl that her daughter is carrying is already her grand daughter. I almost cry, imagine a 14 year old girl is already a mother. And aside from that the husband of that woman is paralyzed, so she's the only one who's working for their family.
Contestant B..he's a father of 3 siblings but those 3 are all mentally illed. Siguro mga nasa 65 & up na yung contestant as well as yung wife nya. But on their face inspite of their situation you cannot see the frustration..and really it encouraged me how strong yung faith nila kay LORD. Again it reminds me what the Lord says in Jeremiah 29:11
I'AM BLESSED....
I received an email two weeks ago regarding 40 Filipinos in Doha,Qatar who needs immediate help. I treated that mail just like an ordinary mail...forward it to my friends and relatives who are also here in Qatar, although there's a conviction within me that why not to help them. Two weeks later I received the same email again from my cousin, I'm about to delete it kasi nga nabasa ko na yon but I still opened it & read. I found out that those 4o Filipinos are still here in Doha and officemates of my cousin are raising funds/donations to help them. It encouraged me & pushed me to do my part.Though I'm really really busy on my work,naisip ko na I can still help them in my own way. I composed email and together with the attached forwarded email I received from my cousins and send it to my colleagues and friends. If we really want to reach out others, there are so many ways we can do it. Minsan nga lang ang naiisip ng tao its just thru monetary tayo pwede makatulong...yeah in a way but its not the only way or outlet to help. If you want to read the story of those 40 kababayans here in Doha Qatar, you can visit http://www.gsamaritans.multiply.com/ and if you want to reach out to them you can send me a message here in this site or on gsamaritans site.
After reading & hearing stories about them, it really made me feel how bless I am. Having a good job, a humane boss who treated us well as in everyone of us look unto him kasi he is a good manager & a good leader as well. Naisip ko after I learned about the stories on them.. I don't have the right to complain (actually di naman ako reklamador hehehe) & even my colleagues doesn't have the right coz we are really blessed.
I AM BLESSED
Sometimes encounters problems & faces on trials but its hard to accept sometimes that those problems & trials are the best teachers in life. Maybe its hard for us when we're in that situation to accept easily pero if I learned one thing on my experienced THERE'S ALWAYS A PURPOSE for everything. GOD WILL NOT ALLOW US TO BE HURT...EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON & one day we will be thankful for those problems & trials.
We are bless in our own way....what we need to do is to seek that blessings on us

Time

I have so many things in my mind right now...
So many thoughts that I want to share...
Lots of plan that I want to do...
But the question is WHEN...
Hmmm...maybe if I have T I M E.
