Would rather be somewhere else...


[Coolness no? Check out the site at www.dinolara.com, there's more neat images where that came from...]

Ok, it's a rainy Wednesday...have to go to work in a few. Though, I wish I'd be going to a wedding instead. Just making a quick post.

Today is the wedding of a friend. Wanted to go but can't get out of work. Yep. I'm the only employee in my UncleBoss's [UB for short] small company. He did hire another guy [TJ aka Tito Jose aka UB's cousin...TJ is funny. Has an infectious laugh. He'd be fun to be around with. Nothing beats to be with a person who always makes you laugh no?] but he still have to learn the ropes on how corrupt the Bureau is. Heee.

At least, by September, I'd be able to get off work for at least 2 weeks no? I'm sure TJ will know the ins and outs on how much he has to give each person in the Bureau.

My Monday has been blah, must be the gloomy weather. Been feeling unwell since Sunday night. Though, no biggie. I don't get sick. I'm blessed that way. I always thank God for that.

Thank God for technology. Around 1pm-ish last Monday, SisterM texted me via YM. [If I'm away from the computer I'm on SMS mode on my YM] Now, I enjoy it even more coz I can chat with my sister via that way. It's cheaper that way. I SMS chat that way with NG too. After lunch 'til about 4pm. Sometimes, the messages get delayed but we're used to it by now. It's better than no chat at all no?

Chatting with NG right now. Quickie chats in the morning. As his work day ends and mine starts. We owe it to technology no? Reading his emails as we chat. Crazee eh? That would be us. Hee. I am not doing anything really...cept following my heart to my one and only true love..I feel I owe you for being that one :) [Hmmmm...mush mode now...] Ok, must go and make some cash. My Wednesday is brighter. I wonder why? Yep.

Leaving you with the daily prayer for today:
Thank You that Your Son will return from heaven with a shout of triumph, that the dead in Christ will be raised imperishable, and in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, we shall all be utterly changed. Thank You that "whatever we may have to go through now is less than nothing compared with the magnificent future" You have planned for us.

Thanks for visiting again. Keep the faith. God Bless us always.

Killing some time...

You Were Actually Born Under:

You Should Have Been Born Under:

You are totally loyal, faithful, and honest. However, you don't trust others to be as ethical as you are! Straight forward and direct, you really aren't one for small talk. You are a great listener - and an agreeable companion when you're in a good mood! You are most compatible with a Tiger or Horse.

What Year Were You Born Under?

Ohkay, for some reason, the image for the Dragon is broken...can't do anything much about that. I was born under the sign of Dragon. 1976 baby.

Yahoo Horoscope for Aquarius today:
As someone in Wonderland said to Alice, it's best to try to believe at least three impossible things before breakfast. The funny thing is once you let yourself believe them, they don't seem all that impossible to begin with. The first step is to let yourself believe that such benevolence is in store for you. So go ahead -- what are three wonderful, lovely and no-way-that-could-happen-to-me things that you want in your life?

Ok, killing time is up for now...I miss SisterM...haaaay...SisterJ might leave in two weeks...another sigh...more on that in the coming posts. For sure.

Leaving you with the daily prayer for today: Thank You Father, that the Lord Jesus Christ demonstrated how I am to live and serve. May You strengthen my heart in every good work and every good word, so that more and more I may honor You by the way I live. [Hebrews 4:12; Philippians 1:20]

Have a fine weekend. Keep the faith. Thanks again for visiting. God Bless us always.

Guess who's coming back? ...

Phoebe, I mean, Lisa Kudrow will be back on TV this month. Wheee. Hope HBO Asia will get this show. For more info on Lisa's new show click on to The Comeback. I'm excited.

SisterM is Dubai bound as of 8pm last night. Haaaay. She even called while boarding. I was asleep at that time but managed to answer my phone. She said to not forget her. Like that's possible no? Man, I'm getting teary-eyed just thinking about her. Oh well. She also texted while she was inside the plane. She even mentioned she was on 16D. Anyhoo, her contract is for 2 years. She can come home after a year. I'm definitely gonna miss her. We used to do a lot of things together. We have more common interests than I have with SisterJ [which incidentally, will be leaving for Dubai within this month too...that's two sisters leaving in a month no? Well, at least, they are bound to the same place. That's a comfort to know.] but I love them both just the same. Yeah. It's not like we're not gonna see each other again right? Too bad they won't be here to meet NG in September. NG is bummed about that too. Oh well. Such is life.

It's an early Thursday here. Thanks for visiting again. Keep the faith. God Bless us always.

Can you say p.i.? I CAN...

[Doctora, Me, Eeee, Miss M and Rico]

This pic was taken early Saturday morning...VS with the gurls. That adorable Golden Retriever goes by the name of Rico. He's wearing an old baseball shirt of her Mommie and can you see the bracelet he's wearing too? Cuteness. We had fun. It's quite obvious with all the smiles no? That gave us away.

[SisterM with Rix and Bob.]

On a quite serious note, SisterM was supposed to leave for Dubai at 6am today but due to some unforseen circumstances the Philippine Immigration asked for some other documents that they didn't have with them at that time. My sister's group were asked to have the identification [of the person in Dubai, their employer] be sent via fax to the Immigration office. What's soooo bogus was, the Philippine Immigration DIDN'T have fax paper. The PI [Philippine Immigration] told them that they will have to request for fax paper. That will take awhile. They were also told if they could have it sent to some other fax machine. Sheeet. What's up with that? How can you be an office without a fax paper? Anyhoo, long story short, my sister's group of 9 didn't make the flight. They're luggages and such were already checked in btw. That took a while in getting it checked out. The flight was delayed coz of that. My oh My. Their contact person here was fuming mad...one simple thing...they could have let them leave the country. And then, just waited for that darn FAXED identification at the Dubai Immigration. They could ask them to go back here if they still have doubts no? Man. SisterM also told us that some of the PI personnel acted as if they were not fellow Filipinos. Don't you just hate it when some people power-trip? Grrrrr. Luke 6:31 to you. Later tonight, my sister's group will know if they will be leaving or not today. Just waiting for that darn faxed document and their new tickets.

Oh well. Should we leave or just grin and bear the ways things done here in our country? It's no wonder [at all] that a lot [millions] of our fellow Pinoys get out of here when they have the chance. I want to get out too. In time. But my reason is not for work though...it's for something else much more important. Hmmmmm.

[Laney]

Habberday to you...Habberday...Habberday...Habberday to you. Hope you're haffee today and always. You sooo deserve it. Will give you Mr. Bedhead when I find him...okies?

A bit from my chat with NG last night:
Me (12:07:49 AM): how about you? ready for a change? like having me around for the rest of your life?
NG (12:08:13 AM): been ready for that all my life, just did not know it
Me (12:08:20 AM): mmmm...really?
NG (12:08:52 AM): Yeps...just took you to make me really complete
Me (12:09:04 AM): [insert happy smiley here]
NG (12:10:19 AM): You are around as best as can be...but I really can't wait till I can reach out to you in person and say everything that I want to say.
Me (12:10:40 AM): ditto...haaay....
Me (12:10:45 AM): [insert happy smiley here]
NG (12:11:43 AM): That's what we need V...that in person thing that will allow that, we don't do too bad now...just longing for the time when I can say it WITH you
Me (12:12:04 AM): I know...
NG (12:13:06 AM): Sigh....wish I could be there...
[ok, can I BE anymore speechless? ... hmmm ... I type fast and I tend to "talk" a lot on chat but there are times like last night that I can't seem to say anything but sigh.]

Last one for now...NG guessed right on one topic we were talking about...I asked him if he wants a prize...he replied...My prize??...well i get that daily just by having you in my life, so I should not ask for anything more, I am already blessed :) and another one ...but you were the big motivator here, just as it will be for the rest of my life :) [that's it I'm done...words...such wonderful comforting words...they make men really endearing no? And I'm more for words...than actions really...so, that's that.]

Anyhoo, gotta go for now. Leaving you with: God's love cannot be explained --- it can only be experienced.

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

Awwww...really now...

When someone says you are my everything ... and you deserve the best and giving you that is my lifelong goal... hmmm ... how do you react to that? No one has said those words to me before so ... it was rather overwhelming ... very overwhelming. Can I BE any more speechless? I have my faith. It will see me through. God has my back. Something that feels this great can't be wrong, right?

Have a fine Friday. I'm sure I'll have a good one. VS with the EBC gurls. The last VS was back in February me thinks. We all need a VS.

Ok, gotta go for now. Leaving you with this passage:
Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in GOD. [John 14:1]

Keep the faith. God Bless us always.
