When bad things happen...


My swollen IV'd hand is bigger than my Dad.

Just me after my Doctor's visit explaining my tests results.

Just me on my 1st day at the hospital

Pretty patient posing for Sick and Glam! (lol)


Hi everyone!

I am so sorry if I haven't been here for a long time. It has been a very terrible and depressing time for me lately. I just couldn't find it in my heart to write even one word on this blog during those times. Thank God I'm okay now.

Yes, we received our NOA2 -- but instead of rejoicing, we are frustrated and disappointed. Let's just say recession has taken its toll on our relationship. Period.

Then I got very depressed, working with my "not-so-motivating-colleagues" even made working worse. All I can say is, they don't have the right to say bad things about me because they have NO IDEA what I am going through. A bunch of hypocrites. I wonder if they would make it through another day if they were in my shoes. Have you ever been so low in your life when nothing seems to be making sense? You start to feel sorry for yourself and get into that depressing pit. I was guilty of letting my personal life affect my work - and I was very aware of it. I just needed some time on my own. But ofcourse, you can't expect the "other-not-so-understanding-people-out-there" to understand, right? Instead of minding their own business and going about their own tasks - they go about MY business and say bad things when I pass by. One even had the nerve to say " (says name of person), you are doing great! I am glad your love life is not affecting your work." -- Huh?!?! As if that person is going through the same thing I am going through!?!? Oh yeah, of course, they feel so high and mighty specially when they see other people suffering and in pain. I wonder what made them that way. I really pity them. They need to know how it is to be human. They need to know how to live. Seriously! As if adding insult to injury, they have been attacking me from behind my back. They were reporting all sorts of things to my immediate superior -- wow! As if they themselves are not guilty of the very accusations that they are accusing me of! The world really is a very crazy world. I can't believe I am working amongst heartless people. I am really glad my immediate superior took the time to hear my side of the story.

Just when I was rearing to get my acts together - I got sick and was confined at the hospital. Nope, not because of H1N1 (though I secretly prayed it is the case so I can finally rest in peace and haunt those who had done me wrong! I would love to see that look on their face when my ghostly apparition appeared before them! A very tempting and interesting thought I should say! lol). I had some inflammation on my left kidney and was the reason why I suffered an on and off fever with occasional body malaise. I just felt so weak. I honestly thought I wouldn't make it through the night when I started to chill. It was frightening but reassuring in a way. I am not sure if that statement even made sense at all.

Anyway, I am back and with a vengeance.

Thank you everyone for your continued support.

Cacai, Meryl and to all my fellow bloggers out there, thank you for dropping by - little did you know, your smiles made me smile too during my darkest hours. For that I am very thankful I have friends like you out there.

Till then and God bless! :)

Bohol: A Wedding and the Tour

It's been so long since I last wrote something here. I have been so busy with my day to day life lately and finally took a short break from everything and went to Bohol for my teammate's wedding last May 30, 2009.

I, together with my brother and 2 teammates went to Bohol last May 29, 2009. We left CDO on the eve of the 28th via Trans Asia. It was a smooth trip – amidst the noisy environment being in the Economy section of course (lol).

One of our teammates were getting married on the 30th - and well, let's just say it was something we wouldn't miss for the whole world! And much to our surprise and delight, the ferry arrived early! We took a lot of pictures and enjoyed our short vacation.

Here are some of our pictures:




This was taken at the port - at around past 5am.





This was taken while we were waiting for our ride to fill up with passengers so we can be on our way to our destination: Doljo, Panglao




Me, Ana and Jane - just posing :)

The Happy Bunch at Alona Kew having dinner

During our Island Hopping the next day. This was taken at Balicasag Island - our 1st destination.

The Happy Bunch at Virgin Island - our 2nd destination.

At the Boardwalk - this was our 3rd and unplanned destination. A very wonderful treat!

At the background are the healthy mangrooves growing abundantly in that area.

Bohol will always hold a special place in my heart - not just because of the friendly people and the delicious foods but also because of the great beaches and sights!

This is one place you should go and see!

My New Look

I've always wanted to have my hair trimmed but just couldn't make time for it. Today I finally did and had so much fun! I not only ended having my hair trimmed, I also ended having a new look! (yay!)

Yes, I got bored with my straight long hair and wanted some twist (tehehehe). Here's my before and after photo:

Before


After

Finally!!! A new look for me!!! Yipeeee!!!!

Music Monday #1: Kosovo Music Video

This is my first entry for Music Monday. I actually feel good that I am back to the blogging world - kind-of-back anyway. Will be trying my best to drop on my constant droppers (you know who you are and I thank you so much! Mwah!)

I will be sharing with you a video that I first saw on break.com (the website was introduced to me by my supah friend Vanessa Morante). I so love this video. It's cute and so original. Not really the kind of music video you see on MTV or Channel V - but it's still a music video, right? (lol)

So here goes my first entry for Music Monday: (Happy watching!)


Authentic video of Norwegian soldiers in Kosovo. Music from the Beach Boys song "Kokomo"

I hope it put a smile on your face.

Take care!

Ciao!
