Life As It Is

It's 34 days to go before Christmas, would you believe it? I know, it was only yesterday when I was staring in front of my computer monitor thinking what it's like not to work on Christmas or New Year's eve now here I am, thankful for life's unexpected blessings.

It hasn't been a month since my family moved into this new house and it got me really busy. Packing and unpacking stuff is quite a drag but exciting at the same time. The thought of living in a new house makes me happy and sad at the same time. Happy because from the time that my sister and I started working we've always rented a pad so we have no choice but to be away from home so we are closer to our workplace. Living in a new house makes me feel like a child with a shiny new toy, I like it when everything's new. I am sad that my mom is not going to be with us anymore. We've been spending Christmas for three years now without her. I guess we are starting over.  

I love decorating our new house. I've always been interested in interior design that's why I can't get enough of Pinterest 'cuz that's where I get most ideas on decorating and stuff. I'm quite a perfectionist, I like things to hang nicely. I just hate eyesore that's why I do my research first to make sure I put things where they should be. 

Get well soon big boy

I like this new neighborhood, it's peaceful. Our pets are somehow getting accustomed to their new environment especially Atari the cat because he still gets to stay indoors. Our toy dog Yumi, is recovering from a blood parasite that came from our previous house and still on medication however Brandon, our 10-year-old German Shepherd was rushed to the vet almost a week ago because he had diarrhea and fever and was confined for 2 days due to possible contaminated water or food so just a to be safe never give your pets tap water, let them drink what you drink. We took Brandon home and is slowly recuperating. According to his vet, the infection badly affected his kidney and liver thank God his appetite is back but still too weak to stand on his feet. I'm just grateful that I get to spend time watching over our sick pets. 

I have a lot of plans for next year like working from home and hopefully my sister and I get to travel again for our birthday, I'm crossing my fingers. At the moment I couldn't ask for more. Happiness is contentment.

Wind Of Change

I left my job. I'd like to give myself a break, well at least for a month until I squared away eveything that I need from the ex-company that I worked for 3 years before I throw myself back to the jungle where I was 4 years ago. I left Manila for Singapore then settled up north to escape the crowded life that I was accustomed to. I guess nothing in this world is permanent but change. I thought I would stay here for good since my mom passed away 2 years ago. The weather is cold and life is calm here but it felt empty inside no matter how hard I convince myself that everything will be alright. I miss the life that I had back then when I could afford a lot of things that I want, even the things that I don't need, but I'm still empty. I guess there is no such thing as a perfect life. If I had a chance to change things and fix them I would, but life is a neverending learning process. As long as you live, you learn. I have better plans and hopefully it will all work out for the best. Everything happens for a reason. I think the wind of change wants me back to where I was because it is telling me that there is no escaping this life, there is no such thing. You can run away but you will always come back to where you're from. Life is a maze so deal with it. For now, I'll take a time off and not worry about waking up during the wee hours of the morning, shut my alarm clock off, sleep more and spend some quality time with my family and pets. I deserve a break, totally.

Life Is Precious

I was helping out my niece to find photos of people going against the 10 commandments of God for her C.L.E (Christian living education) project last week and Yahoo gave me an interesting link for the 5th commandment Thou Shall Not Kill, showing pictures of aborted babies some during their early stage. There's also a video of abortion being performed on an 11th-week fetus ultrasound I didn't even bother to take a peek I've seen one in my health class back in Highschool it still haunts me up to this time.


I thought this is very informative so I'd like to share this with everyone who values life as much as I do.
