fun + forum

Had fun in our DT forum today. So many people attended yet only few faces are familiar to me.

I had so much fun playing the african drum "djembe". Though my hands hurt afterwards, it worth it. The guide was so lively he reminded me of Lisi coz of his coolness.

Though most of them volunteered for this, I was lucky enough to get nominated by Leon. Hmmm... How could I ever thank him for giving me a chance to experience this? I even asked myself if I do really deserve his trust wtf.

Anyway, I didn't stay long for the cocktail reception and realized too late that I missed the bus. I asked Julio to give me Prishy's number os I can go home with her if ever she's about to go home. Then I decided to wait in the staff entrance when I saw Mazen and to my luck, he was about to go home and he have a car today. So lucky me.

Currently chatting with Silvester and now I so wanted to go to Turkey. I didn't come along with his trip coz many people are saying that it's way too cold right now there and I might not enjoy it. Well, they have a point there. I'm not used in too much cold so I may end up sick and in bad mood. Besides, I prefer to see the beauty of Turkey during summer period. 

Since Jackie gave me a travel journal as a birthday gift, I promised myself that it will be filled with good memories. If I went to five countries in 2012, I will travel more in 2013 - inshallah.

I'm such a late bloomer. It's already in the middle of December when I suddenly felt this urge of having Christmas spirit. You think it's still okay to buy decors for my room? Haay, seriously that will be a waste of time and money.

One thing I so wanted to do, is to go home. Whether for real or vacation, am not sure.

Somebody told me long ago that if am no longer happy doing what am currently doing, I should stop it. Hmmm.... Am thinking if it's a good idea to be jobless in the beginning of new year. I think it will be a bad luck or bad beginning.

Anyway, I need to clean up my own mess first. Another sigh.

Tomorrow I need to do the performance review with Shamli. Ampf! I hate to do it coz am still not that confident to do it. I think am too lousy to conduct such things. What should I ask him? What should I tell him? What should I advise him if me myself was having such great mess in my work.

Dear December, why you no good to me this year? :( :( :(

Btw, last saturday I decided to buy a weighing scale only to end up buying so many things impulsively. Bought a new shoes (it will be my fifth black shoes for office use). And I decided to throw those shoes that I will no longer use, that is if I will not be lazy to move.

Even bought some things for my box. My box! Goodness, I almost forgot to fill it up. Now I think I have to since I already got some stuff. 

Gab was funny coz he ended up crying when I went home coz he wants to come with me. Thiiiiiis kiddo!

My mood to cook is back again. I tried to cook kaldereta last weekend and it's yummy but needs more touch ups. So I decided to cook it again, that is if I will be able to go to Spinneys to buy some pork spareribs.

Waaaaa... I just remember, I still don't have my Christmas outfit. What should I do?

all i want for christmas

Last night I took a walk in the snow
Couples holding hands, places to go
Seems like everyone but me is in love
Santa can you hear me?

I signed my letter that I sealed with a kiss
I sent it off, and it just said this:
I know exactly what I want this year
Santa can you hear me?
I want my baby, baby
I want someone to love me, someone to hold
Maybe, baby
He'll be all my own in a big red bow

Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year
and all I want is one thing
Tell me my true love is near
He's all I want, just for me
Underneath my Christmas tree
I'll be waiting here
Santa, that's my only wish this year

Oh yeah...yeah

Christmas eve, I just can't sleep
Would I be wrong in taking a peek?
Cuz I heard that you're coming to town
Santa can you hear me?

I really hope that you're on your way
With something special for me in your sleigh
Oh please make my wish come true
Santa can you hear me?
I want my baby, baby
I want someone to love me, someone to hold
Maybe, baby
We'll be all alone, under the mistletoe

Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year
And all I want is one thing
Tell me my true love is near
He's all I want, just for me
Underneath my Christmas tree
I'll be waiting here
Santa, that's my only wish this year

I hope my letter reaches you in time (oh yeah)
Bring me a love I can call all mine (oh yeah)
Cuz I have been so good this year (oh)
I can't be alone under the mistletoe...
He's all I want in a big red bow

Santa can you hear me?
I have been so good this year
And all I want is one thing (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Tell me my true love is near
He's all I want, just for me
Underneath my Christmas tree
I'll be waiting here (oh yeah)
Santa, that's my only wish this year

Ahh...Oh Santa, can you hear me, oh, oh Santa
Well he's all I want, just for me
Underneath my Christmas tree
I'll be waiting here (oh yeah)
Santa that's my only wish this year



Hmmm.... Dear Santa, have I been a very very bad this year?  (sniff sniff)

I was about to write my Christmas wishes only to realize that it might be a total waste of time. Things were not going on a way I wanted it to be.

Anyway, I still believe in Santa.

picture problem

Unfortunately, I still have the same problems with regards to uploading pictures. Too bad, just when I have so many pictures to upload.

I currently don't hold any credit cards as I vow to myself not to own one #nocontrolovercreditcard as I suffered a lot when I still have back in Manila.

So the only card I own is my debit card which I don't want to use as much as possible on online purchases coz if worst things may happen like card hacking, it will be impossible to recover the amount lost in my account (not to mention my monthly salary was being credited in the same debit card).

So for now, I think my posts will nothing but just plain text  -___-

Had a long video chat with Joan yesterday and one thing is for sure, I do miss this gal big time. Can't wait to see her again and go travel with her around the world ^___^

....

...

..

.

Here's the deal, somebody was asking somebody to confirm some suspicions / rumors about me. My reaction was "what?!?". Wtf!

I'm quite surprised coz I never thought she will do such thing. Anyway, she used to be nice to me so I'll let this pass by. I will no longer comment about that, nor confirm things as I don't need to explain myself to other people, whatever they may think about me.

I'm a hypocrite, maybe yes maybe no.

I'm a wrecker, maybe yes maybe no.

I'm a slut, maybe yes maybe no.

I'm a shitty person, maybe yes maybe no.

You can say or comment whatever you wanted to me, the hell I care.

After all, it's my life.

december it is

Can't believe it's already December! 24 more days to go and it's Christmas time. Too bad my December vacation was not approved so most likely I will celebrate my Christmas here in Dubai again. -___-

So starting today, I will only play Christmas songs. No more SNSD songs nor pop songs. Must download good Christmas songs to my phone nao!

But seriously, can't feel the Christmas spirit here. Maybe coz I'm in an Arabic country where they don't celebrate Christmas. The only consolation during this period was that the temperature changes, much more cooler than last month. 

This will be my fourth Christmas away from my family. The thought of it gives me a little bit of loneliness and the feeling of being apart and far away from them.

Coz I remember back in Philippines, this is the most celebrated season of the year. You can feel the festive mood everywhere. Trees, buildings and streets were adorned with colorful lights that's so nice to watch at night.

And Simbang Gabi will start on 16th of December. They say if you were able to complete all the masses from 16-25 of December, your wish will come true. But you have to wake up very early in return just to attend this mass.

Perks of Christmas? Of course, gifts! Christmas parties everywhere, and in every party there will be an exchange gift so the whole month is nothing but exchanging or giving gifts to one another.

Awww... Now I so miss my home, my family. I hope next year I will be able to celebrate it with them.

Btw, I can't upload pictures in my Sri Lanka trip post anymore as my picassa album is already full and needs to be upgraded. Haayz, do I really need to pay to upgrade it so I can continue to post pics?
