always a woman

"they can kill with a smile, they can wound with their eyes
they can ruin your faith with their casual lies
And they only reveal what they want you to see
they hide like a child, but they're always a woman to me"

uninviting

As much as I would like to stay at home more often these holidays, I simply can't. Not to mention that i need to work, staying at home isn't relaxing either. You cannot imagine how noisy it is because the nearby building is undergoing repair and reconstruction. The architect said they're changing bearings and the flooring. I couldn't care less. All i want is for them to finish their job soon so i could get my much needed rest. Also, my cousin is repairing our roof so our house is really uninviting for anyone these days.

aint i a boss

It's supposedly holiday week and i'm supposedly just be home the entire week. But what do you know? I should be at the office and working. Why o why they can't move the timing and consider the holidays in the Philippines? Arrgghh! It can get so annoying right but i can't jeopardize the project either. Ahhhh! The hassles of being an employee. Maybe it's better if i have my own business then i can be my own boss. I can go to work just whenever i want. A friend of mine is working on her own business already, maybe i should try and look into some small business for sale that i could start. Hmnnn not a bad idea.

christmas wish

Whew! Just one more day and it's new year! Time flies really fast, so fast i can't keep track. Anyways, how's your Christmas holidays guys? I hope everyone had a happy and meaningful one. As for myself, i spent Christmas eve away from home - for the first time ever in my life. :D I always, always try to be home for Christmas but this year i spent it otherwise. I spent it with some good old friends somewhere. (I'll tell you the whereabouts when i have the photos :P) Anyhow, i was back on December 25 noon, so it's still Christmas :) As to my subject, i could always wish for good health for everyone in the family but practicality wise, i wish for a life insurance quote from Wholesale Insurance for everyone. We can never tell what's going to happen but this would at least help.

Merry Christmas

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :)

company party '08

It's been a pretty hectic week since last week. Practically, month of December has always been busy. Not only with work tasks in the office but also with lots of gettogethers to attend to. Yesterday was a company holiday. The day of the company Christmas party is usually declared a holiday to give everyone ample time to prepare especially the program committee. This year's Christmas party was held in Sunflower Disco. The area was quite small for us but nevertheless we were accommodated. I was gonna put on my halter blouse i got on sale a couple of months ago but i changed my mind and wore a dress instead. The program started as early as 5:00pm. Well, not bad, that gave everyone more time in the dance floor. The movie flicks shown from each department were very hilarious. I think our version of Charlie's Angels was totally fun! In fact, our version of Cameron grabbed the Best Actress award. As usual, we had lots of photos so if i have another flash drive to spare, then i wouldn't have problems copying pictures from my coworkers' cameras. I will post more pictures next time when everyone shares their copy. I can't wait to see them all!

the subject

all smiles
but we simply are
just the background
At any rate, Romelyn and I, knew that the camera is rollin' ...You noticed? :P

her secret

Ain't I a vain person. But conscious enough about my belly. Not the exercise-always-to-get-flat-abs conscious but rather the not-doing-anything-but-always-complaining-about-her-bulging-belly conscious. Opps! I look like a pregnant woman with this blouse. Yay! My belly is bulging! Ulk! Just a few of the lines you'll hear from me every time when confounded by the fact that i have a big tummy! LOL! A friend who used to have the same predicaments have moved past these retaliations. She now has a flat tummy i so envy. She just told me her secret that come in diet pills along with regular exercise. Oh my! Maybe I should really try it.

keeping your clients safe

I'm almost always a fan of late night tv shows and documentary specials. A few weekends ago, i chanced on seeing a special report on how these con artists manipulate and rob banks. I was really furious as to how they could play roles and run off with all the money. Some innocent victims at hand may even pay the price. The security cameras installed inside the banks played major part in identifying the culprits. Security officers may not be able to stop the robberies but images captured from the cameras may help the policemen or special forces find a lead to the case. I therefore suggest that banks and other institutions should install these safety gadgets at all cost. The safety of their clients should come first.

sale madness

Went to Gasa Sa Gugma Center (Missionaries of Charity) earlier with some of my coworkers to visit the elderlies. It was quite a heart wrenching experience. How i wish they will be given more attention by our government. If not, i hope lots of benefactors will shower the center with more funds. Anyways, i will be posting rest of the story in my other blog. We later went to The Terraces in Ayala and have lunch. We opted for some pizzas and pastas. To burn the calories away, I strolled and was tempted even more to spend the last of my money for the lots and lots of things to buy on sale anywhere inside the mall. Control i did, still i went home with two blouses to show off. Tsk! Moving on more about sale madness - elusive it may seem, but i shall one day own a notebook. This Samsung NC10 would surely do. I'm concern with the HD capacity most of the time. Well, a 160GB HD is a winner! Even electronic items are sold at lesser prices now a days. I could only really hope i have the ample amount of money now and materialistic wise, my Christmas wish would be complete!

most fave piece lately

is not a dress, nor a pair of shoes, nor a bag...
it's nothing else but my portable drive... :P
refer to my previous post to understand... :D

isn't she lovely? :P
Just allow me to gloat, ok? I'm just happy because now i need not worry where to store my gazillion photos and movies and tv series files. :P

finally, i got

My friend and colleague, Melody, arrived back to Cebu last week from her assignment in Michigan already. There's no doubt that her family was excited of her return. Especially her son, who happens to be my godson. I too was very excited! Why not? She was bringing with her one of the items i so wanted to have this year. Finally, i got my My Book Essential Edition USB 2.0 External Hard Drive. If you happen to read one of my previous posts, i wrote i really wanted to buy a portable drive. Now, i have it! She got it on sale and certainly no shipping fee to account for. Ain't that neat?! Thanks so much to her. I hope i won't have to pay her though. Hehe! Can i have this as christmas gift instead? Hmmnnn... The next item i'm eyeing for is a MiniSD USB2.0 Multi-Media Card Reader from Aluratek. This little piece of delight can support any type of memory cards - MicroSD, MiniSD, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, etc. This should really come handy should i need to download pictures from my camera. How much? I can get if for just $11.99. That is quite affordable, right? Maybe, i'll have this next year. I'll have to save first for my hosting. LOL! :)

what can i do with my lovehandles?

Nice blue skies, nice view, nice picture - but this picture could have been greater if i don't have that spare tire to pair with. Waahhh! I'm so much annoyed by that excess muscle around my waistline. I think it's high time i should get myself some corsets especially if i'm wearing a dress. It should help me tuck those unwanted fats. Really, i'm not your very vain friend but sometimes it's really annoying if you don't get to wear all that you like. It can get stressful thinking about it you know, lol! I don't want to look thin, i don't want to look slim. I just wanted this bulging tummy be slimmer. I should poke myself! All i do is complain but never get my lazy butt to do some exercise. I should do something! Hmmnnn...

the kid next door

I kind of feel groggy while at work today. I should have slept early the night before because i was tired from our trip but I slept late instead. I coudn't resist watching my favorite TV series. Then I woke up a little early than usual. I woke up to the noise of my neighbor yelling at her 7-year-old daughter. I rose and looked in the window. This cute neighbor of mine was at their roof proudly cleaning. She's waving with a roof cleaner in hand. I doubt she's not cleaning at all but rather playing. Well, the scene could actually cause any mother to panic but she looked like she knew what she's doing :P I tried going back to sleep but to no avail. Well, at least i was up early. :)
