***Happy birthday sa cellphone ko.. 1 year old na sya hehe***
Whew! A lot has happened in 2007, sa sobrang dami di ko na maalala kung anu ano yun. Pinaka-highlight ng year na 'to eh yung mga out of town trips ko with my friends and officemates which hopefully next year meron ulit (mas madami pa).
It has been a good year for me. I'm thankful na I'm still breathing and still with the people I love, after all yun naman yung pinaka-importante eh. I'm so blessed and I'm so grateful for that.
If you believe, then all things are possible -- Joel Osteen.
Cheers to a fruitful 2008 to all of us! Happy New Year everyone!!!

Monday, sa office naglunch si jhen pati pala nung Friday, ininvite ko sya pero di ko sya pinakain haha. Wala kasi kaming kasama ni rachell eh since close na rin naman sila kahit pano pumunta sya dito, binilhan nya kami ng donut (ang sweet nya hehe). Pag alis ni jhen may dumalaw na higante sa office! haha. Si Badap nagpunta lang para ipa-inggit sken yung PSP nya..nainggit naman nga ako haha ang saya maglaro ng NBA Live! hehe gusto ko na rin ng PSP. Grabe ang tangkad ni Badap lalo akong nanliit!

Mickey and Friends
Dahil hindi ako nakasama sa HK trip nila Boss, ang ganda ng pasalubong nila sken. Thank you sa inyong lahat. Pero ang galing talaga ni God alam naman kasi nya na eversince maliit pa ko gusto ko na makarating ng Disneyland. Sakto nga pagpunta namin ng megamall kaninang lunch break andun yung 4 main characters ng disney so nagpa-picture ako. Sabi nga ni Jane kanina hindi daw hinayaan ni God na hindi ko makita sina Mickey hehe.
MY Best Life Now

To Jessmark, THANK YOU ulit. Just the thought na hinanap mo yung book and then you bought it for me it meant a lot talaga. In other words, yung effort behind it sobrang na-appreciate ko. Sinumulan ko na syang basahin hehe.

i survived
waaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!!!!! yan lang ang masasabi ko sa mga nangyari sken for the past 2 weeks.. I can't believe that I managed to survive it all! ang hirap pag emotionally disturbed ang sakit sa ulo. Lahat affected.. lahat lahat sken pati apetite ko pati ibang tao naapektuhan ko. Kala ko bibigay na ko, Sunday night was the hardest of all, nagpatong patong nang lahat and I cried it all out yun na siguro yung sinasabing "I cried a river" hehe. Ngayon ko talaga napatunayan na ang transitions sa buhay ng isang tao minsan hindi na kailangan abutin pa ng months or years, within 24 hours madami nang pwedeng mangyari.
* Dahil di natuloy ang Sagada trip, we changed plans punta na lang sa Metrobar may 5 tix si jhen. Before we left buti na lang she called Metrobar sa sobrang "swerte" nmin ayun hndi muna nila iho-honor yung complimentary tix kasi may event daw PLUS the biglaan declaration ng 12AM CURFEW haha yun wala na tlaga kaming nagawa kundi mag stay sa kanya kanya naming mga bahay. Ang ending cancelled na nman.
* Our 3rd attempt (baka kasi this time pwede na hehe) sa MOA na lang daw, ayun talagang by hook or by crook itinuloy ang plan sa sobrang frustration na rin siguro kaya super pilit na ituloy ang lakwatsa kahit sa MOA na lang carry na! haha. Kala pa namin hndi kami mkakapag enjoy sa Global Fun supposedly closing na sya ng 11pm we arrived at around 9pm na buti na lang nag-extend sila till 1am. The famous "flipper" haha 3 napatumba hehe, kala ko di ko kakayanin yung ride na yun (sinong bakla????) hahaha. Labas kami ng 1am sa carnival naglakad lakad at nagpicture taking sa pedestrian lane then we decided to go to Music 21 ayun till 4:30am kami dun.. super kanta lahat especially Yanna ang Guygoy. Our day ended.

* Before yung meeting namin sa Tagaytay hanggang nitong dumaang week bothered na ko bout sa work then nadagdagan pa yung nangyari nung Friday. Parang ayoko na magbigay ng masyadong details dito. Sorry sa 2 tao na naaning ko..hehe. Jane,, as always lagi nman kitang inaaning alam ko sanay ka na sken. And to YOU,, i'm sorry. and okay na nman tayo di ba? so case closed. hehe.
* Dahil sa mga nalaman ko napaiyak talaga ko nung Sunday kasama na din yung fact na malapit na ko mag-bye bye sa mga kasama ko dito sa office. After that night, okay na ko and ginawa ko na yung mga dapat kong gawin at natanggap ko na yung matagal na ko na dapat tinanggap pero in denial lang ako. Monday, may rainbow na ulit. :)
******** Tuesday,, supeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerr special waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh!!! super happy talaga ko,, imagine yung hard to find na book FOR ONE MORE DAY by Mitch Albom nakita ni jane at binigay nya sken as gift! touch talaga ko kasi na-set ko na sa mind ko na bibilhin ko talaga yun every bookstore na puntahan ko out of stock lagi yung book. Sobrang happy ko talaga meron na ko nun.. yehey!!!! yung ibang book na lang bibilhin ko!!!! Jane,, super thank you, pdeng isa pa yung ano nman YOUR BEST LIFE NOW by Joel Osteen hahaha joke lang! super thank you!!! mwuah!!

At the end of it all, I realized many things:
go to where your heart takes you, do what will make you happy. Its okay to ask for advice from other people but remember at the end of the day you still have your own free will and its you who know better. The only person who is with us our entire life, is ourself. No guts no glory, you can't be safe all the time you have to make sacrifices and take some risks, these are all part of the learning process, part of life. Don't be afraid to fail because from failing you will appreciate life even more. The best way to ease your pain is through acceptance. Always look forward to a brighter tomorrow, there are numerous things to be happy about. And there will always be that one great friend who will selflessly share herself with you. And finally, just have faith, have faith in God.. after all he's the only one you've got. :)
* Strategic Planning Meeting sa Highlands, bothered na ko nung mga panahong yan (hindi halata hehe), hindi ko kasi alam pano ko ibi-break ang news sa kanila, so nag enjoy na lang muna ko para naman sulit yung mga last few days ko with them. It was my last out of town with them.
