Gloomy Looney

Good morning! I can hear birds talking on a gloomy Thursday morning they seem happy despite this kind of weather, unbelievable. Seriously? I envy these guys. 


It's my last day to enjoy my rest day and I'm not supposed to be up this early but my body clock tells me that it's time to wake up. I'm done watching the movie "The Runaways" yesterday so I have nothing left to watch but cartoon flicks that I downloaded for my niece. Oh well, I guess it's better than nothing. 


Now what am I having for breakfast? Mmm.

Confused As The Weather

It's supposed to rain today right? I'm not really complaining you know. I'm just a little confused with the weather lately, that's all. My parents paid a visit to see how I and sissy are doing and brought us some fresh porridge (yum!) but I just ate so I'll have it for later.

Hopefully, we'll get our wifi installed today we've been waiting for a week, darn. It's my niece's second day in nursery thank God she didn't cry yesterday so she did today, lol. I heard she doesn't want to join their morning exercise that's why she cried so I'm like, really? I think I'm just a cool aunt who doesn't want to interfere with kids way of expressing themselves nowadays. 

So, I'll be home all day I guess I have to make the most of my rest day. 

Bummer.

    

Hello Morning Shift

I'll be in the morning shift, great. I guess I have no choice but to get used to it. I'm not really a morning person but I just have to look at the brighter side. I can be as normal as possible, yay. It's been a long time since I was in the morning shift. I can't even remember anymore but who cares? I never asked for it but here it is so I have to train myself to sleep at night and wake up early in the morning. At least there's no traffic, malls are open after my shift, I don't have to wait anymore. I thought I bid for GY (graveyard) shift but as always expect the unexpected and deal with it. 


Wake up and smell the coffee. Good morning.

Newbie

It's been a while since I wrote my last blog and I can't help but notice that a lot of things have changed here. The dashboard interface looked a little different I kinda like it. Well, change is indeed inevitable so let's just embrace it hehe. 


I've been busy with work so I haven't been writing a lot though I have a lot to write about but I just don't have the time to do so. Learning new things is fun as always and meeting new people and meeting new friends is a bit exciting too. I'll get the hang of everything in this new job, I guess I just need more time to practice and un-learn old habits. I'm happy with work so far just like I'm happy with my new haircut. Twin sissy and I had our birthday just a week ago it's supposed to be a secret but someone spilled the beans, oh noes.


Life is all about change. Deal with it.   

Gypsy Bus Ride

It's almost lunch time as of this writing. My twin sissy is fast asleep beside me while I'm busy writing this. I don't feel like sleeping when I travel because I don't want to miss anything. Thank God there's wifi everywhere even on the bus nowadays for people on the go like myself. I'm a sucker for wifi you know.


It's been seven months since I paid Manila a visit so I was a little mesmerized that there were so many new buildings that sprouted like mushrooms already. Imagine in only seven months? But it's no surprise to me. Having tall buildings everywhere doesn't mean that a country is becoming more progressive. Overpopulated maybe? More people, more pollution. Everyone is crowding in this busy city so what to expect right? But well, not me. 


Oh-kay, so summertime is just around the corner. Summer comes El Niño and not to mention it's fire prevention month so make sure that before heading to the beach don't forget anything that will invite fire. 


Have a safe summer peeps.

Random Thoughts

I love the weather today and hopefully no LPA (low pressure area) forecast for the week. C'mon, it's almost summer and it's still raining? No way. I need the cold in evening and early morning but warmth for the rest of the day so I can hang my clothes to dry if not, that's going to be really disappointing. 

Mmm... I bet our neighbor's cooking something delicious today it smells sooo good I'm like a vampire right now going frenzy over the smell of blood.

My new addiction is Zentea. I'm addicted to it I swear I'll try all their newest flavors when my sore throat is gone. 

I'm getting sick of my job it's so getting into my nerves and I need to do something to kill the stress a bit I decided to add some more highlights to my hair thanks to David Salon for being creative. 

God no earthquake please, please. 

I think I'm going crazy.

Metabolic What?!

It's only been a week since January ended but it feels like another year's gone by. I just had 2 cups of brewed coffee so to keep me wide awake for the rest of the day. I need some sort of adrenalin rush we have a pile of clothes for laundry today, whew... I know.


My body still aches I think I gained weight so I'm doing a metabolic workout. Now, what the hell is this "metabolic workout" thingy? The short definition of "metabolic training or workout" as per Google is "completing structural and compound exercises with little rest in between exercises in an effort to maximize calorie burn and increase metabolic rate during and after the workout."


Yeah, whatever. I think it'll be a busy day today.

Welcome 2012

Another year has gone. I made it to 2012 yay! Thank God for that. Well, what can I say? This is my first blog in 2012, it's raining and foggy out here... is that a good or a bad thing? I dunno really. Any New Year's resolution for me? I guess I'll do whatever to make sure I don't repeat the same mistakes I made in 2011 but of course the learning experience is something I didn't regret a thing, never. I still want to travel though and continue my journey to wherever this year. Sissy and I are looking forward to spending our birthday this year as usual in a place we've never been, now I'm talking about B-day stuff. I don't wanna be a year older yet. 

Moving on, I want to make the most of everything this year. Health is still my priority. "Health is wealth" remember? I think I need a good luck charm for 2012. This "New Year fever" isn't over yet so Kung Hei Fat Choy 2012!

Helping Hand

It’s four days before Christmas while I can’t wait for this special day to come, my sympathy goes to all the victims of "Typhoon Sendong" especially children who lost their loved ones, they are so oblivious of what lies ahead. We know that what happened is nature’s wrath but this wouldn’t have happened without negligence on everyone’s part and it’s always easy to put the blame on the government but the truth is we’re never prepared for anything and it’s always too late. So where do we go from here? If we will not care for mother earth we can anticipate that the worse has yet to come. God never wanted this to happen neither for people to suffer. HE never gives up on so let’s just take this as a reminder that we are lucky enough to be alive and to cherish every moment that we have with our loved ones for what is lost can never be saved.

Holiday Plans

It's 14 days to go before Christmas... really? It doesn't feel like Christmas at all here in the mountains hadn't because of the cool morning breeze. I think the locals aren't big on Christmas lights, lanterns, etc. I don't know if they're just too lazy to decorate or they simply don't care at all? It's no big deal though, I'm just wondering.

I miss the festive holiday atmosphere in Makati, especially along Ayala Avenue. I look forward to see what concept they'll come up with every year. The lights are such an eye candy. Whenever I'm inside the bus and passed by Paseo, I can't help but feel that Christmas is coming close.

So what are my holiday plans? I'm afraid it might be the usual, traditional Christmas and New Year kind of thing. My idea of a perfect holiday is just to spend it in private with my family. I Iike to keep it simple. That's all.

Early Bird

Good friggin morning. So why am I up this early again? Well, it's my day off and I'm just making the most out of it, I guess. I slept around 5PM yesterday. Every week is like the longest week of my life for some reason and I can't wait to get plenty of sleep and rest. I miss my bed so much. I'm in love with my bed and someday we'll be together forever! 

Thank God it's pay day weekend I'm done with my shopping spree (wow, really?). People are flooding the mall because of the 3-day sale that my sister also took advantage of as well she got herself a real cute jacket with 20% off (I'm not envious, snort). Anyhow, twin sissy and I didn't find the nail art stall we're looking for inside this local mall so we're a little upset but I'm over it somehow I just bought a cheap nail polish so I can just paint my nails later. I also got myself an eye shadow palette. 

I hate the idea of having to work, can I just get paid for doing nothing? I wish it's that simple because work can be a little too much. For now, I'll just chill and enjoy the rest of my rest day while I still can.
