Okay. It has been AGES since I last posted something in here. I don't even know if there are still people following, but what the heck...post away I would =)

I'm supposed to be preparing for a class on Monday. I have to check the systems if everything's working, post some visual aids to be used in class, and several other things I need to do before ( Read more... )

Massive thanks for those who've responded so far. Kindly confirm by texting/posting, people -  we need to have an idea of how many are actually going. =)

Additional updates:

I was thinking of posting a year-end piece but never got around to starting it. Don’t worry it won’t be a day-to-day, blow-by-blow account of stuff that happened in ’08 (even I won’t be interested in reading that); just general ramblings of things that happened in the past year.

Papa passed on this year. He wasn’t 100% healthy when 2008 kicked in, ( Read more... )

I still go through all my routines but I now FULLY realize the meaning of having a chip on on your shoulder. It's more like a boulder actually, and I could literally feel this weight on my back. I'm sure it's way lighter than what my mom is carrying though. There's my dad who's barely hanging on, a whole pack of kids to attend to, and a hospital ( Read more... )

...that you've hit rock bottom?

Saying that it has been a hellish week for me (and my family) is a complete understatement. My dad (who's also an amputee) suffered from multiple stroke last week. He's been living off a respirator for several days now, and although his condition has slightly improved from last week, he's still got a long way to go. ( Read more... )

I've no more than five hours of sleep every night for the past week and my eyes feel like they're filled with sand so excuse the randomness and if you're not interested...wait, why are you still reading this? =p

I won't talk about work because it's boring but lately I've been doing NOTHING but watch endless episodes of Japanese dramas and anime. If ( Read more... )

This is called 50 FIRST REACTIONS. Type what comes to your mind first whenever you hear these 50 words. Don't think and don't go back and change. Doesn't matter how random, just type it! Repost it for all of your friends.

3. Relationships: balance
4. Your CRUSH: ( Read more... )

I finally passed that grueling training course for my new job. After almost two months on pins and needles, cautiously treading over subjects and systems I had a hard time understanding half of the time, and meeting cool people along the way, training is finally over and done with. I could now breath, relax, and get ready to do my job.
