i speak...
i'm an open type of person. i speak out my emotions
usually pero i can be very private at times. i love to
dance and to sing
and i love the company of my friends and my family.
i'm an overly talkative, compassionate dreamer, a
romantic at heart.
i'm a writer too.
words i'd love to live by/tara-inspired
i will create my day
i will create my reality, moment to moment
i will change my mind
i will open myself to the infinite realm of possibility
i will leave room for auspicious coincidence
i will not decide what is next
i will not decide what is real
i will not expect
i will have confidence
i will boycott self-doubt
i will have confidence to go beyond hesitation
i will not be afraid to be afraid
i will remember who I am
oh, yeah. i will also have fun...
i love...
GOD
my family

on turning 21, work and christmas presents
Sunday, November 13, 2005
hi there. it's been that long huh? i've been wanting to post a 'stuck in a moment birthday edition' but you see, i got a bit lazy and actually, too busy.
i had a nice birthday celebration, mainly because i got to spend it with lots of family and friends, the people i most care about. and i think that's just the key to having fun on your big day. even without that much gifts, the fact that these people came for me, and most especially, since it was my nanay vering's birthday too, came for my dear lola, was the best gift i could ever recieve. (also especially because my birthday is on ALL SAINTS' DAY).
to give you a glimpse, here are some of the snapshots from that day. and oh, i love the part where we get to blow out too many candles. note: we had 4 chocolate cakes, 1 braso de mercedes and (from my dear kel) my favorite, a blueberry cheesecake, most of them from red ribbon. now this is what i call a birthday party:
oh yeah, you bet, i got even fatter. :)
after my turning 21, (the age, i figured, is not that big of deal) i went straight to work on the 3rd of november. little did i know that after the training, i'll be getting the first and only actual work assignment amongst all of us, newly grads of ABAP training. it was startling, since probably i had the least background in programming.
but yesterday, against all odds, i got to completely finish my first ticket together with dj, the other one who eventually got assigned to another ticket too after his leave. it was a double thank GOD it's friday for us, since we haven't been able to see the sun set for the whole week. now we know what OVERTIME really means.
on the brighter side, i am officially a working woman (? hehe) with an office desk and a supercool PC. wanna see?
as expected, my desk is overly cluttered, mostly because i had a lot of work to do, and that i haven't been decorating my spot. but don't worry i'll get there.
our workplace is already beautifully decorated, with christmas trees and all. they're beautiful, and i just wish our house will soon be decorated for christmas too. i don't know why but mom seems not too up for it at this time. maybe the times have already sullened our christmas spirits.
but maybe not much for me. you see, i have a christmas wishlist with me already, which is also obviously much like a to-buy list for me, since i don't think people will buy it for me. but i'm keeping my fingers crossed... ninong... ninang... tito... tita.. kuya... ate... hehehe. so here goes;
first off, or these ones then maybe an ipod for EJ, the chronicles of narnia series, harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban and smallvile season four on dvd, and actually, a lot more. but i definitely love those guitars. pity it's such a hard task finding great looking ones in hot pink. in the process i found this cool line for women rockers, some of the designs were insanely absurd (butterfly, heart and daisy-shaped guitars can you believe it?) but they're one of a kind. check 'em out:
Daisy Rock anyways, i guess this is for now. it's a really long post. i won't stop updating this site, i promise. i just came to love it too much.
have fun! 'have yourself a merry little christmas...' :)
