Excited for my new room.

Inspiration for my new room :)

This makes me excited about the new house. I gave this to Pipay and Misty (my friend/interior designer) to serve as peg for the design they will be creating for me :) I love the vintage wall and the pink accent of this room. It makes me feel sophisticated and sooo girly. I'm just so excited. I really hope my room will be done soon. Hahaha! I can't wait.

And.. If only I had the space, I'd want this one too.

— yes, he tells me he loves me everyday, but didnt have the guts (or the balls)to leave his girlfriend for me. he’s an ass, but at that time, he was just too adorable that i accepted it. but now that i know my worth, (way more than you’ve treated me before) goodluck to you. i wont fall for that anymore.

So Many Questions..

Do I know exactly what would make me happy?

Am I giving too much?

Am I receiving enough?

What is enough?

When do I stop?

Do I have to?

Is my day-to-day life routinary?

Am I a good daughter?

Will I be leaving something good behind?

Will my decision make a significant change?

Am I going towards the right direction?

How do I see myself few years from now?

Am I ready to settle down?

Will my opinion matter?

So Many Questions. But the answers are indeed few.

I'm not where everyone expected me to be.

Not where all expected me to be.

Back in college, I was average. I don’t get straight A’s but I excel in recitation. I love my course. I argued with my mom to pursue it. She wanted me to take up Nursing but I had a shouting match with her as I reason out why I have to take up Masscomm. Just because I feel my heart is in it. I’m not the bibo type but I loved every minute of what we do. With this, everyone expected me to be in the industry.

After we graduated, I searched for a job that would take me out of my bum life. Bummm??? I had my first job, April 27, 2008. It never entered my mind to apply in a broadcasting company, I don’t know why.

I wanted to try in an Advertising Company and I’m still hoping until 2 weeks ago, I had a client that works for an Advertising Agency and she’s downright crazy. I mean, everything blows out of proportion because of her stress. She can’t seem to manage everything. Knowing myself, I dont think I can handle that stress. Honestly.

I do what I do best. and that is to communicate. Communication takes you to places. It doesnt have to be where everyone expected you to be, it just has to be where you find yourself happy and contented.

I see my friends in the industry and field we chose, and I’m happy for them. I am more than glad that people strive hard for their dreams and I’m one of them. I wanted to have a job that is pro-active, self fulfilling and fun all at the same time. And I got it. and being given the chance to hold a managerial position is the cherry on top of my ice cream. :p

Life’s that simple. When you go out in real life, you don’t carry your degree with you. It matters, but what employer’s credit is your dedication and passion for what you do. That’s how you will help the company in the first place. Choosing another path for myself is my decision and I’m more than happy with what I chose.

Random Thoughts

Coffee Overdose - Been drinking too much coffee for the past week. Stressed out. Coffee claimed that it can keep you awake even if you’re dead tired or super sleepy. I’ve been addicting myself to it, so I can work as much as possible.

Work - It had been pretty demanding lately. Clients calling left and right. Imagine, one of our clients wants us to fly to China and get their goods ourselves. Something we have to do just to get the goods here on time. And last night, I came home from work past 10pm. Waaayy late but duty calls. :p

BOF (Boys over Flowers) - Since the air time was changed, I wasn’t able to watch it anymore. Punyemas. I so miss Ji Hoo. Hahaha. I’ll download it na lang. Haiii. Simple pleasures.

Cocktails - I want to drink something new. Being the “bartender” that I am, I have to think of something that would please my taste buds. Less triplesec, More Vodka, too much tequila.. List goes on.. Darn.

Our Business - Chaser’s Club had been resting for a few weeks and we’re trying to figure out how to market it well. I cant get my hands on it full time since I am working as well. New shot glasses arrived and our truck’s almost done. Thanks Dad! I have to think of something asap.

Masters Degree - Despite my crazy schedule, I am thinking of pushing through with my plan long ago. Lasalle said they’ll be opening the submission of application on June and classes starts on September. I am so torned. Should I? Should I?

Hayden-Katrina Scandal. - Well, poor Katrina. One girl who fell inlove and got busted. Why are some men like that? No matter how many times they say that she deserves it because she’s such a slut, she’s still a woman, and her body is sacred. F.U. Hayden.

Eyebags - Getting worse day after day. What do you expect, I have a client that thinks I’m Mercury Drug, open 24 hours. Haha. Imagine getting a message/call at 2:30 in the morning? Haha.

Silent Mode - Eversince mobile phone was invented, I was so used to putting it on Silent mode. Because ringtones irritates me. But now that people needs to get a hold of me often, putting my phone in silent mode is a mortal sin. :s

Berks - God, I miss them. When did we last go out that we’re complete? Biene’s Birthday? and that was 3 months ago. I hope we can find little time in our busy schedule to meet up for coffee or something. Sissy, you should go home asap.

19th Month - Aww. Babe and I went through all these months together. I’m happy to call him my significant other. He’s such a sweetie. Having someone who understands you, takes care of you, loves you all the way is something really precious.

Moving out - 21 Sct. Rallos is Lalalove. My friends would agree that most of our fond memories happened here. I’ve spent 21 years of my life growing up in that house. All my cries, joys and pains was secluded in the 4 walls of this home. I’m also sad because i’ll be far from my girlfriends but closer to Babe. Hahaha. Well, change is inevitable.

Moving in - I haven’t seen the new house at Ayala Hillside for quite some time, so I don’t know exactly at what stage they are now. I’m pretty much excited to start anew. But this means, I have to get used to Balara’s traffic. I can’t wait to see my new room.

M.O.S.T. Institute - Mom wants me to learn how to cook. It doesn’t mean I completely don’t know how to, but she doesn’t want me to cook Adobo or Pasta or Fry hotdogs, ham and egg my whole life. This is something that I think is necessary but I told her if I manage to have time for this, I will. Besides, cooking school is not cheap. They are wayyy too expensive.

Dieting - And this is the hardest part. Haha. Working your ass off and dieting is not a good combination. I’d probably faint if i do. So I’m taking it one step at a time. Godamnit.

Escape - I NEED THIS. I want to go somewhere far. Haha. I want to go to the beach. I’m in dire need of rest. Oh crap.

Full Body Massage - I want one. I like one. I need one. Hahaha. Karr, let’s gooooo

So there, this is my way of de-stressing; writing random thoughts.
