Wandering in the Wilderness
Take out the fish from the sea and it will die but put a man in a different environment, though hard, it will adapt. It’s been a month since I took that giant step of my life. It’s something that I have been praying for these past few months. I recently got hired by one of the big IT companies in the Philippines and I can say that it really wasn’t easy looking for one. But I am very thankful to the Lord Almighty for letting me have a job in just a short span of time of job hunting. It’s hard having to adapt again to a different environment; getting along with different people – same position, experienced professional and big bosses. It’s difficult to weigh their temperaments, personalities and how would I adjust mine to theirs.
Not used to traveling far, I am really struggling everyday to get from one city to another. What used to be an hour ride became two hours or sometimes even more. But don’t get me wrong, I love my job. This has been my prayer and I am certain that God this for me. Because of my job, I’m an insomniac no more. I sleep as early as 9am and then wake up at 6am. Fairly, slowly, I know that I can also adapt to my new habitat. With God’s guidance, I know I can make this. Plus, because of this, I can buy the things I want. Teheee.
Ayoko sana magdrama kaya lang required.
Nakakatawang alalahanin ang mga pangyayaring hindi ko na mahabol sa bilis. Parang kelan lang nagsisimula pa lang kami. Pero tignan mo naman ngayon, pang-limang taon na pala namin. Di ko na iisa-isahin yung mga pinagdaanan naming hirap, pagsubok at problema. Kasi isa lang naman ang importante – magkasama pa rin ngayon. At alam kong walang wala pa yung mga pagsubok na hinarap namin noon sa pagdaraanan pa namin sa mga susunod na taon. May nabasa ako noon na pag nakalampas daw kayo ng dalawang taon, true love yon. Pero para sakin, hindi na kailangang umabot pa ng dalawang taon para patunayan na kayo na talaga para sa isa’t isa.
Paano mo malalaman kung siya na talaga? Kapag alam mo na kung saan ang kiliti nya, kapag siya lang ang naiimagine mong kasama habambuhay, kapag naiisip mong magpalaki ng mga anak kasama siya. Pero siyempre matagal pa yan dahil maraming marami pa kaming kakaining KFC flavor shots. Kidding aside, gusto kong magpasalamat sa Diyos sa pagbibigay ng mabuting boyfriend. Di ko sinasabing perpekto siya pero proud na akong sabihing kahit kelan di sumakit ang ulo ko sa kanya dahil isa lang naman ang bisyo nyan maliban sakin – ang matulog.
Wala akong maibibigay na materyal na bagay sa araw na ‘to. Nanood lang kami ng Avengers kahapon, nag fishball date at sinalubong ang pang limang taon nang magkasama. Kahit nga jologs na video na may mga pictures namin at may love song na background music, di na ko nag-effort gumawa. Kahit picture collage namin, di ako nakapagbigay. Ewan ko pero kasi feeling ko gasgas na ang mga bagay na yun. At ang sweet para sakin ay yung gumawa ka ng blog post tungkol sa anniversary nyo kahit ang tagal tagal mo nang hindi nagboblog.
Happy 5th (wooden) Anniversary!
Consummatum est.
I was riding the tricycle yesterday, as how I always do it usually every time I come home. Randomly, I suddenly felt a flash of memories from high school as I pass by my alma mater. I always pass by Rizal High School to and from school but yesterday was particularly different. Perhaps this is because I have no more “school-ish” things to think about like requirements to pass or examinations to take. Yesterday, I realized that it’s been four years since I graduated from secondary education; four years since I left Rizal High School. But now, it is all finished. It was as if college life ended before I knew it. It was as if I blinked and everything’s done.
It has ended.
As much as I wouldn’t want to blog it, I can’t contain the sadness I feel. The Harry Potter series has finally come to an end. I watched the movie last Friday with my high school friends. I don’t know what to feel. It’s more like a mixture of pain, happiness and sorrow. There’s a little pinch in my heart whenever I start to realize that there would be no Harry Potter to look forward to next year. I nearly cried when harry puts his head in the Pensieve and all the twists of the story suddenly flashed. The “sorting hat scene” flashed back and it made me, not only remember that scene, but also my childhood. I was only Grade 4 when I watched Harry Potter 1. I’m absolutely proud that I am part of the Potter Generation and I feel like my batch is really what you can call the Potter Batch. Now that I am finally graduating as a college student, the HP babies have also graduated from Hogwarts. And this makes me even more imaginative that UA&P is Hogwarts. 
PS: 14 days and it’s my 20th birthday and I share the same birthday with the HP author, JK Rowling. 
Tired and Lifeless
Well the truth is, I’m really tired. I’m tired of work, school and stuff. I’m tired of working hard to earn money. Even though I know that’s how life goes. I’m tired of going to school mentally and physically. My only motivation is that graduation’s near. I’m really lifeless. And I’m having a hard time in finding motivation to academically excel. I don’t mean that I’m having failing grades. But semester’s just started. I don’t know but I’m more enthusiastic to earn money than to go to school, really. I’m tired of thinking, reading required readings, making papers and the like. I’m tired of it all. *lazy song plays*
What If?
Life’s really full of vagueness and ambiguity. Things don’t fall into its proper places most of the time. What you have now will soon be gone. And what you wanted for so long will suddenly arrive. Sometimes we’re stuck in the middle of where we SHOULD be and where we WANT to be. Several constraints hinder us from taking the latter path and most-often-than-not, these constraints just shut the door.
When we are so used to being spoon fed, we always want open doors for us. Doors that wont take effort to be opened. However, let’s take the logic of a mansion and a nipa hut. Which of the two houses have a tighter security? Yes, the beautiful mansion indeed. On the other hand, the doors of a nipa hut is just secured most of the time with woods and things that can easily be destroyed. Ergo, this shows that when things get difficult to achieve, it just means that it can offer a lot of opportunities for us.
However, when we begin to rationalize evenly, a shut door doesn’t necessarily mean a locked door for we will know that it’s locked only if we try to open the knob and see if the latch is unfastened. Don’t be afraid to take the knob and you’ll see what’s really inside that mansion where you want to be. Just take the risk.
For all those who Love Discounts
I, forone, love discounts! When I hear of mall sale, I immediately go to that sale in order to get the items that I want with a much lesser price. Little did I know that there is a website that offers discounts! It’s called the Mega.co.uk. They are offering a variety of discounted items. You just have to know the coupon code. I’m going to tell you one coupon code. You just have to go to Thomson discount Code and you will find various items that have discounted price. You better be fast cause someone would totally be in a hurry to see these amazing items!
I am excited.
Yes. I’m excited. I will be just counting few days before another school year starts. I don’t know the reason why I feel agitated every time I think of going to school again. But on second thought, I think I know the reason why but can’t figure it out. Is it because of the new pairs of shoes that I bought or maybe the new bag or maybe something else. I know it’s about something else or SOMEONE else. YES! I knew it. I’m excited probably because my angel is going to school again. And this means he can fetch me up at school everyday (well it depends on his schedule).
I really envy those who are with their boy friends or girl friends at school. They can see each other every single day. Oh well, everything has a purpose. Maybe God wants us to go to different school so that we’ll miss each other. I just want to share this letter that I found on Tumblr. No, I don’t wish for this kind of guy. Because I already found him.
Baby cat has given birth to more baby cats!
Yesterday, my sister noticed that she hears kittens “meowing” somewhere near her place. Suddenly, I remembered that our cat has a big tummy and thought that maybe, she has given birth already!! Actually, we thought that our cat is boy because she’s a very wild cat. She scratches things a lot and she’s very playful and active.
Here are some of the pictures:
Initially, there were 4 kittens but 2 died because of the cold weather. Rest in peace poor little kittens, you died too early. 
My New Phone: MyPhone QT7 Duo
I’m sorry for not blogging for a couple of weeks I guess? It’s just because I became busy with OJT and my new job as an online freelance writer. I would just like to update you with new happenings with my life.
I am watching my boyfriend’s basketball league. His team is the defending champion for four years. However, there were no league held during the administration of the previous SK chairman so they weren’t able to play for 3 years. The court in their street was also removed that’s why they have no practice at all. Their current standing is 5-3. I hope they can defend their crown.
Also, because of my hardwork, I was able to buy an ipod shuffle which costs P2,450. It’s just a small music player which keeps me accompanied during the boring hours of my office life as an intern. It can hold up to 500 songs with 2GB storage.
I was also able to buy a new phone! It’s MyPhone QT7 Duo. It’s a dual sim phone created by the MyPhone team which is now under the Sony Appliances. It costed me P3,200 eventhough it’s only P2990 in their website. I bet it’s more expensive in malls. I’m enjoying my new phone because I can install java applications (which means I can install games and my favorite free opera mini). The audio player also works fine unlike those china phones which sounds like what they call ‘tunog lata’. In fact, it plays louder than my laptop. haha! It has 2mp camera which is quite good for capturing images.
I’m really really happy with this! And by the way, my boy friend won in All for Juan, Juan for All. He also bought MyPhone QT7. We have the same phone now. Hehehe.
