Welcome 2012!

Where did 2011 go? wasn't it just yesterday when we were mapping out the year ahead, making bucket list and all kind of plans...Life moves pretty fast.... so welcome 2012! I do hope you had a relaxing time with friends and family:)  @ayala street party countdown (Top from Zara, pants -Mango, belt- Burberry, shoes-So-fab bag-Mulberry )    I'm sorry for the late post. New work is eating me big time but I'm genuinely happy for living the old unhealthy, crappy work situation/environment. Thank God I save myself and for the new beginning:) I wish everyone a real love and happiness for this new year but remember to catch happiness itself is sort of like trying to catch a butterfly. We may be able to catch it if we put our all into it and overwork ourselves but chance are, if we just like in peace and do the other things in life that we are supposed to do, happiness will be far from us and will more than likely to come to us. Life is really about doing the things that we lo...

Thank you!

Last week was my birthday..oh  yes!  I'm getting older for better... I guess:). Thank you for all the greetings, to my FB wall, phone calls, emails and dinner...thank you! I guess those are enough reason to count my blessings! cheers to good life! I did not plan for a big party since I'm jobless:) but happy. Seriously, I'm in battle of signing a new job contract or to take a little time for myself and spend holidays back home. I guess it would be perfect! spend Christmas with a real people that dear most to you....what  do you think? So two of my girlfriends surprise me and we had dinner at Italianni's Restaurant Bonifacio High Street. I adore Italian Food. I have good enough reason to believe that I'm a Sicilian native in my past life..lol The classico-thin-crust pizza was superb. Just the way a slice of real Italian pizza should be - fresh, thin and crunchy. The toppings, uhm…delizioso! and another one, the shrimp and mushroom linguine pasta- a yummy ...

One Step

Life as always has a funny way of sneaking on you... Oh yes! I resigned from my job. It was the smartest choice.I need to save myself. I am the only one who can rescue me! No one else so I finally end up  my relationship with Advil.  I'm thankful that I have a loving family and friends who support my decision. To my workmates that I worked  for 2 years "thank you" -for the few:). The laughter and coffee break surely I will miss  but with the external   stress we both shared you can have it all. Whatever comes with my decision, I know I can go higher and I'm better than before. ♫ ♪ Brain Mcknight sings to me...never lose hope..never lose faith...there's much too much at stake upon myself I must depend ♫ ♪ ( win) Before I start anew...I need a breather....let me share to you some of the photos:) And thank you for sending this photo and reminding me that I'm loved:...lol:) oh yes..that's my n...

Laugh and Live

To avoid the misconception that our problems are permanent, is to laugh at them. Just throw your head back and laugh in the face of fear and in the midst of struggle. Life is serious enough without you having to be serious about it. One of the greatest aspects of being alive is play. without exception, people need play. People whose live are lopsided with work have a lack of appreciation for play. Thinking their lives are serous business. they give up play too readily. They think they cannot afford time away from work and chores. Instead, they grind away, insisting that staying alive means work and rest in an ending cycle. When we're laughing, I think we're learning. It opens our minds up and makes us more creative and innovative. It helps us to view our challenges from a unique perspective. When you laugh and you play, you are having the moment-to moment experience of you at your best. Doing such activities is  a gift to yourself. You're nurturing yourself with the same ...

Starbucks Planner 2012- time to ingest gallons of caffeine!

I don’t have a problem with caffeine. I have a problem without caffeine…oh yes! I’m a self confessed coffee-holic. Last year, I suffered from gastritis due to over consumption of coffee but it didn’t stop me, my blood type is coffee and caffeine isn’t a drug, it’s a vitamin.:) So I switched to decaffeinated coffee (decaf). This coffee has less caffeine or 97% of its caffeine has been removed. It works with me. I no longer suffer from inflammation… goodbye antacids. I must admit that I love Starbucks,  (aaminin ko to, na-eenjoy ko talaga yung kape ng Starbucks bakit ba…social climber..OO ako na..hahaha.) so I often spend my rest day at WalterMart Makati Starbucks with a good book. Since it’s the nearest branch at di msyado maraming otaw…di magulo. Apart from their coffee, I’m a big fun of the yearly planner. Not for me but for my sister.  She has been receiving this gift from me for 3 years in a row na. sosyal at katapos back to 3 in 1 brown coffee na ulit...lol So by to...

Happy Halloween

 Halloween here in the Philippines is not like the Halloween in the Western countries. Although it’s a big holiday (comparable to Christmas here), we celebrate it in a different manner. Halloween in the Philippines lasts from the eve of October 31 (or even before this day) to November 2. Due to our strong Catholic background, Nov. 1 and Nov. 2 are spent remembering our dead loved ones and these dates will usually find most of us in one place only: the cemetery or the memorial park. We don’t celebrate it with pumpkins or trick-or-treats (although this Western tradition is sometimes practiced in some families / subdivisions here). We celebrate it through candles, flowers, prayers and a visit to the cemetery. You might think we have a very boring Halloween here. I mean, cemeteries, graves, prayers, etc. make it look like a serious affair. Not so. Spending Halloween in the cemeteries is a fun event. It’s like a mini-reunion for families and friends alike, a chance to have fellowship ...
