Summertime...

This is my current desktop wallpaper, got it from the display images from Windows XP, would be nice to see a beach anytime you want to yes? At least, I've been to one last February. That was nice.

I was up until 5am-ish earlier, watching the Alias Season 2, I'm on disc 4, will be on episode 15 the next time I watch, will probably be later after my chat with NG. This particular season is where Vaughn & Sidney [finally] hook up. So far, my fave episode was the one where the Bristows [Jack, Laura & Sidney] had this mission to disarm nukes. I like that. It was a family affair of sorts. I'm liking Sark [David Anders, the guy in the picture]...me likey him. He a cool guy, a bad guy yes, but still a cool one.

It's the first day of April, a brand new month, the first quarter of 2006 is officially over. Where did it go? Time is really amazing. Sometimes, I feel like it's moving slow but when you get to check the calendar and see that it's a brand new month, you can't help but think, man that was fast. I'm actually excited for each new month since I get a new page on my FRIENDS calendar. Heee. It's on one of my joys. I have like 3 calendars in my room, two of which came from BENCH, Wendell and Rafael in their undies. I would have prefered a Jomari calendar but he hasn't been on any BENCH ads lately. Tsk Tsk Tsk.

Speaking of Jomari, a friend texted last Thursday night saying: I'm doing the voice over for a magazine anniversary party and your fave Jomari Yllana is here. I replied and asked if Jom's guapo in person. He replied: Nyuk, nyuk, I just saw him, was paying attention to the female celebs that are here. Heee. Me feels, I will always like Jomari. He'll be 30 in August btw.

Anyhoo, must wrap this one for now. Thanks again for visiting. Leaving you with today's daily prayer:
Thank You Father, that You so loved the world that You gave Your one and only Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Fairest Lord Jesus! You alone are my heart's desire ... my chief delight ... my soul's glory, joy and crown. Every advantage life can offer is like rubbish, compared with the overwhelming gain of knowing You. [John 3:16; Philippians 3:8]

Have a fine April. Keep the faith. God Bless.

Birthday Gurl...

SisterM is 26 today. Her first birthday outside the country. Wishing her a blessed one. Missing her and all.

I'm here at an internet rental place killing time while our client's documents are being processed at the bank. This particular bank is not one of my faves, it takes a while for them to process the documents unlike some of the other banks our client use.

Grrrr moments at times, because in my line of work, time is important, start early, finish early... [depends on the computer servers at the Bureau though...tsk tsk tsk], and it gets to me from time to time that some people don't give a tiny Mickey's ass on some things. Grrrr indeed. Do I complain? YES, though, not to them. So, doesn't count really no? Heee.

Anyhoo, I think it's almost an hour, I'd go back to the bank and see if our client's documents are ready. After the bank have to go to a shipping line then finally, to the Bureau. And I will be there depending on the speed of the server and the gazillion [OKAY, I exaggerate on that...] people who check and re-check the documents. REALLY. One person can do all the checking and what not. But at the Bureau, at least 10 people will get their hands on our client's documents.

I DON'T GET THAT!!!

Sounds like I'm bummed today no? Heee. Pardon me, first red day. Getting impatient. Plus stomach cramps. Ouch. I have reasons be this way.

Byes for now and have a fine Wednesday. Keeping the faith. God Bless.

Ho-hum...

Your Birthdate: February 16

You're incredibly introverted and introspective. You live inside your head. You spend a lot of alone time meditating and thinking. People see you as withdrawn, and at times they are right. You are caring and deep, but it may be difficult for you to show this side of yourself. Your strength: Your original approach to thinking Your weakness: You tend to shy away from others Your power color: Pale blue Your power symbol: Wavy line Your power month: July

What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

Your Love Life Secrets Are

Looking back on your life, you will only have one true love. Although you may have been hurt before, you tend to bring very little scars into new relationships. You prefer a quirky, unique person to be your lover. You're easy going about who you're with, as long as they love you back. In fights, you are able to walk away and calm down. You are able to weather the storm. Getting over a break-up doesn't take long. Easy come, easy go.

Your Love Life Secrets, Revealed

You Are 44% Open Minded

You aren't exactly open minded, but you have been known to occasionally change your mind. You're tolerant enough to get along with others who are very different... But you may be quietly judgmental of things or people you think are wrong. You take your own values pretty seriously, and it would take a lot to change them.

How Open Minded Are You?

How You Live Your Life

You seem to be straight forward, but you keep a lot inside. You're laid back and chill, but sometimes you care too much about what others think. You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintances. Some of your past dreams have disappointed you, but you don't let it get you down.

It's an early Sunday and I'm still awakey. Was sleepy earlier but not so much now. Just updating the usuals. Lazeee weekend again.

Had dinner with the gurls Friday night. Yummy food at Colasa's. Grilled pusit anytime. Yummy food and good company ALWAYS a good combination. Got there late but it was all worth it.

Why I was late was beyond my control. Work related. Don't wanna bore you with the details BUT it was frustrating. Was supposed to be done by 4pm BUT because of someone's mistake I had to pay the consequences. It was a Friday so, most of the people were rush-rushing. Grrrrr. Thank God I kept my cool. I wanted to cry. I just kept thinking of happy thoughts and prayed a lot. Thank God there was no heavy traffic and that I didn't waited long for a ride home.

Here's an excerpt from the March 17 entry of Each Day, A New Beginning [Daily Meditations For Women]:
The wonders of love are many. Love is a healing balm for wounds. And it nurtures, both the one loving and the one loved. Love is an energizer. It spurs us on to successes in work and in play. Love multiplies. If we aren't feeling loved, we can love someone else --- and love will visit us, too.

Day 16 of the The Purpose Driven Life talked about LOVE too. God is LOVE. Love means giving up --- yielding my preferences, comfort, goals, security, money, energy, or time for the benefit of someone else. I am praying we all find love in God.

I miss my sisters more and more. SIGH. SisterM called earlier. Sigh. She'll be turning 26 on the 29th. Her first birthday away from home.

Speaking of birthdays, BrotherDear is 29 today. I hope and pray that he is wiser and less-easily tempted to do things that he used to do when he was younger.

Thanks again for visiting. Will be zzzzing for now. It's almost 5am. Chat with NG is around 11am, must be up for that. Heee.

Have a fine Sunday. Keep the faith. God Bless you.

Have a fine Wednesday to all. Thanks for visiting again.

Keep the faith. God Bless.

Ito Ang Tru...

Yesterday, was supposed to play badminton with one of my HS friend. Texted her as I left the house. Texted her when I got to the badminton place. Texted her for a few more times. Waited for an hour. Called her. NOTHING from her. I don't know what to make of it. SIGH. I'm not angry [I was pissed around that time] but I'm disappointed. Now, I don't know if I should text or call her to ask what was up or just wait for her text or call? Oh well.

On a happy note, our HS batch93 basketball team won versus batch92. Our batchmates will be up against either batch90 or 91 for the finals. Hoping for batch91 [saw some familiar faces I liked back during my freshman and sophomore years...] Go Damers93 Go. Heee.

Finally got to see Harry Potter:Goblet of Fire last Saturday night. It was okay. Me likey the scene of the Quidditch Cup. Must read book 5 sometime soon.

Finished Season 1 of Alias this weekend too. Will start with Season 2 this week. I love the songs that were used on Season1.

I told myself I won't buy any more dibidis for now, must finish all the ones I bought over the years.

Started reading The Purpose Driven Life this month. I've had the book for almost 2 years but never got the chance to read it until now. I'm happy I decided to finally start with it. I have so much to know and learn about God. Just reading His words is very uplifting and comforting.

Numbers with NG:

Met him around 2001.
15 months since December 2004.
397 chat days in YM archive.
15000++ emails between us.
Didn't keep track on the SMS/YM chats.
Didn't keep track on the occasional phone calls. [that would be too much no?...heee...]
Two weeks together in person.
Hoping and praying for more in the future.

Okay, must go for now. Thanks again for visiting. Appreciated. Leaving you with...

Today's daily prayer:
My gracious and sovereign God, thank You that You have been with me and carried me from the day of my birth until today. May You bless and use me, as You allow me to go through hard times, through trials that many people go through in this fallen world. How encouraged I am to think that You are working all these things out for blessing!
[Psalm 139:16; 1 Peter 5:9; Genesis 37]

Have a fine week. Keep the faith. God Bless us always.

Yay for me...

Hi, I'm still here. I turned 30 last month and it does feel wonderful. I'm not too old nor too young. Will post about being 30 next time.

I just posted to see if my flickr badge is working, I think it is. See, I added the code on my template HTML thingy last Saturday but for some reason, it won't appear as it should be. For the past few days, only the flickr logo were visible. And since, I WANT the badge to appear on my blog [just below by profile thingy], I tinker with the codes and remembered that there are some codes that need to be placed inside the body tag. Ohkay, I actually don't know the technical jargons BUT I think I did it. IF you're seeing my flickr badge, then, YES, I succeeded. I just spliced the code and placed it where I want the badge to appear. I didn't think of that the night I added the code. Too sleepy. It said on flickr that you just copy and paste the code to wherever you want the badge to appear. That's what I did. At first, I thought it was my browser but I could see someone else's badge just fine. So, I scratched that. Must be the code placement.

Anyhoo, I don't really know what I'm saying here. This is all blah blah blah really. I just had to post about it. A mini-wave for me. Whoo-hoo. I did it on my own. Wheee! I feel goody. I'm shallow like that. Heee.

I have to get some zzzz now, my eyes are giving up on me.

Thanks again for visiting. Keep the faith. Prayers for everyall. We all need it. God Bless us always.
