Oct-Nov

COUGH: A sudden noisy expulsion of air from the lungs that clears the air passages. A common symptom of upper respiratory infection, bronchitis, pneumonia or tuberculosis.

What bothers me most right now is my health. I have this stupid cough for a month now. I’ve seen 4 different doctors. I took all the drugs I needed to take but the cough still wouldn't go away. I even took natural medicines... Calamansi juice, honey, Ampalaya leaf extract, and so on. Last Friday, the doctor said I needed to have my lungs checked because 4 weeks of cough is not a good sign. The result will come out next week and I'm really really hoping there's no problem with my lungs. The doctor said if I have lung issues, I would need to take a two-week off from work and the medication will take up to six effing months! I don’t want that L

All of the doctors that checked me are convinced that this is just an allergy because other than the coughing, I don’t have any symptoms or signs. I also believe that this is just some type of a strong allergy because I don’t feel weak, nauseous, feverish or anything else... just this throat-ripping-chest-tiring-cough. I cough more than I speak everyday.

Sometimes I lose my patience with myself and I just wanted to throw things away... believe me, most of the time the only moment my cough will stop is when I sleep. I feel that what's happening is unfair for me. I had flu shot, I swallowed all the medicines but I still cough non-stop! (The medicines I’ve taken from different doctors were co-altria, winthrop, erdostine, co-aleva, sinecod, mucobron forte, mepresone, ventolin expectorant and omeprazole)

Because of this cough, I wasn't able to stay and drink tonight. It's my cousin's birthday party and she asked me to stay for the night but I didn't. I also wasn't able to go to Navotas for a funeral. I couldn't drink or eat anything cold (see how boring it is???)

I really really need to be in good shape very soon. There's a lot of work in the office and we needed to render overtime even on rest days (very good timing for Christmas season though). For the first time, I am joining a cheering competition and I don’t want to screw it up.

I promised myself I would join the NaNoWriMo 2011 but I failed. I wrote a few chapter but wasn't able to edit and give a final read to it so I failed. :(

Ang pinaka abalang buwan ngayon taon (Sa palagay ko)

I started the month with a bang in Boracay! The island really captured my heart and I will surely go back here. Ive never seen too many foreigners in my life before. There are foreigners everywhere I look, everywhere I go and everywhere I eat! I had so much fun despite the gastos and pagod :)

After a week, our department had a team building in Caliraya. Join pa rin! Its nice to meet new people and play games/activities with officemates. The most unforgettable with this experience is the MUD SLIDE. It was crazy! I tried it twice even though its cold and dirty :)

I had a rest on the third weekend. Oooopss, not a rest literally, I meant a rest from gala. Its time for rest day overtime. Too much work will kill ya.

One last hirit, Il be in Banio Creek for star gazing on the 30th (wherever that may be) I really dont know where that resort is, but what the heck eh? For as long as Im not alone, its ok. :)


More OT's this coming week! Cmon! Ano bang pakiramdam ng kumpleto ang tulog???

Meeting new people

Last April 30th during the clean up drive in Ilog Pasig, I happened to meet two new people who works in the company. One, a single mom of two and the other - a single dad of four.

Is it a sign that I can also have kids without father? (echos)


The single dad whom I remember is named Rommel is a father of 3 college students and one in fourth year high school! whew! He must be earning too much to have a capability of sending his 3 kids in college all at the same time! Well, he's only been with our company for 15 years. Fifteen effing years man! omigash, I wish I could stay that long with the company and I hope I could be as successful as him!


Liezl on the other hand, is a single mom of two. I wish her and her kids nothing but the best that life can offer.


Yes,  they are both singles and still they managed to raise their kids, be at work and still find spare time for community activities such as this clean up drive. I salute you both!

See you around guys!

Migraine

Patatagan kami ng migraine ko - sino kaya ang unang susuko?

Not now please.

Im feeling sick. Headache. Chill. My throat hurts. I can't afford to be on sick leave. I have so much to do this week.



Because of that Ibong Adarna in the office... my LSS for today is "If I should love again, if I find someone new.. it would be make believe for in my heart it would be you...." Nakakairita siya!

This week

Kaye's photo exhibit - Her class is going to have an exhibit this week somewhere in Malate. Im planning to bring my mom there too (hopefully I could find time)

I joined the volunteers for Ilog Pasig clean up - on April 30th, 7am to 12nn. Di ko lang alam kung san gaganapin :P

Rogelio Sicat - someone reminded me this morning of this. OMG! anong petsa na, hindi pa ako nagsusulat! At sana, kung may maisulat man ako, sana ay matanggap :(

My berks in the office is planning to have a taste of the summer this weekend sa Laguna. Sana maraming makasama!

Alden, My oc-oc bf

Today I learned from facebook that Alden, my ex boyfriend died last year. That man made my young heart cry many times before. I was only 17 when I met him. He was 8 or 9 years older.

Almost a year ago, he called asking if he can see me. I had work and I wasn't able to see him.

He thought me a lot of things. Being much older than I am, he made me promise to be wise when in comes to love.

Thank you Alden. I will never forget you for the rest of my life. May God grant you eternal peace.

9. My Greatest Temptation

10. Story writing contest result...

Walang dahilan para ngumiti this week.

Gusto kong isigaw sa mukha nya "ANO BANG GINAWA KO SAYO PARA IWASAN MO AKO?!" hindi naman ako demanding na kaibigan. Ni hindi ko nga hiniling sa kanyang kamustahin din ako sa tuwing kinakamusta ko sya. Ganun naman siya, pag tinanong mo ng 'kamusta?' sasagot lang siya ng 'ok lang'. Ni hindi manlang magtatanong ng 'e ikaw, kamusta?' kahit manlang pabalat-bunga.

Ni hindi ko naman siya kinukulit sa text. Hindi rin ako nagla-like o nagco-comment sa posts nya sa FB! 

Ni hindi ako nagpakita na nasaktan ako nung sabihin niyang iba-iba ang level ng mga friends nya at isa lang akong acquaintance. Tang ina, acquaintance? Nagbubuhos ka ba ng sama ng loob sa isang acquaintance?

Kahit manhid sya, kahit hindi gentleman, kahit kuripot, suplado, masungit, moody, perfectionist, etc... sige pa rin ako sa pakikipagkaibigan sa kanya because I felt somehow, nag eenjoy rin naman siyang kasama ako. Nasanay akong lagi siyang nakakausap at nakakakwentuhan while eating. Tapos isang araw pag gising ko, nagbago na siya. hindi niya na ako kinakausap na parang hindi niya kakilala! as in! Daig ko pa isang stranger. Para akong invisible na hindi niya nakikita. Ang sakit kaya non!

Sa sobrang sama ng loob ko, hindi ko na tinapos basahin yung book na hiniram ko sa kanya.

Nalulungkot tuloy ako ngayon at OO, NAMI MISS KO NA SIYA! SOBRA. Niyaya ko siya last week na manood ng movie or gumala this weekend, sabi niya titingnan niya. Ayoko nang ulitin itanong kung free ba siya kasi alam kong di na nya sasagutin ang text ko. Nagmumukha na akong tanga.

Tinanong ko din na siya kung galit siya, sabi niya hindi daw. Pero bakit bigla siyang nagbago?! bakit? bakit?? bakit??? Kung dati kasing cold lang siya ng Baguio ngayon Alaska na.

Sana manlang nalaman ko kung ano bang maling ginawa ko para hindi ako puzzled diba?

Kailangan ko sana siya ngayon, gusto ko ng mapapaglabasan ng sama ng loob sa mundo, makakasama kumain at makakasabay sa pagtawa habang nanonood ng movie.

Hay, kung anuman ang ginagawa niya sa mga oras na 'to. Sana happy siya.

The Digital Bling-bling

Few months ago, I posted a blog about a camera Ive been dreaming to buy. Well, I finally have the thing I called "digital bling-bling". After endless prayers and sleepless nights, I was able to buy a Nikon D5k, more than what I prayed and planned for. I cant thank God enough for this blessing.

In return, because I have used all of my money for this bling-bling, I am broke now. I dont have new clothes or shoes or bed but its all worth it.

Nakakamiss. Nagkahigpitan sa office kaya hindi ko nabibisita ang blog ko. Pagdating ko naman sa umaga sa bahay, pagod na at lahat ng idea na naisip ko kinagabihan ay lumipas na. Nakakapanghinayang ang mga araw na dumadaan na sana'y marami na akong natapos isulat, pero ganunpaman, ano nga bang magagawa ko, mas importante ang trabaho ko. Tsk.

Araw-araw akong nananabik sa pagpasok ng Nobyembre. Sana matupad ang wish ko.

Nakalipat na ako ng team kaya naman sobrang tutok ako sa trabaho ng mga nakaraang linggo. kailangan kong magseryoso para hindi mapagiwanan. nakakastress lang minsan, nakakatunaw ng braincells, info overload. naglabasan sabay sabay ang mga gigantic pimples ko dahil sa stress. nakipagbalikan ako sa ex ko - si marlboro lights. Alam kong muli ko syang iiwanan sa mga darating na araw, pero sa ngayon, kailangan ko pa sya kaya kami muna ulit.

Ang traffic sa C5

Ika-23 ng Setyembre, 2010

"Dalawamput-walong taon akong nag-negosyo ng medical supplies. Mayaman ako dati, maraming pera. Kaso nag-bisyo at nagtiwala sa maling tao. Kunwari mabait, itatakbo lang pala ang pera mo. Ang bilis ubusin ng pera, ang dami kong taong natulungan noon. Maraming lumalapit sakin para mamuhunan. Nagbi-biyahe kami madalas sa mga probinsya para mag-deliver ng mga supplies. Kung naging maingat lang sana ako sa pera at naging matalino, hindi sana ganito ang buhay namin mag-asawa ngayon.

Yung narinig mong kausap ko kanina sa cellphone? Asawa ko yon, nasa nueva ecija, nagbabantay ng maliit na tindahan namin. May kailangan kaming bayaran pero wala siyang mahiraman kaya nag-aalala ako, inaatake pa naman ng kanyang rayuma. Ang hirap ng buhay talaga, pero huli na para magsisi. Milyon-milyon ang naging pera ko noon, pero tingnan mo naman ako ngayon, iilang kaibigan na lang ang natira. Yung kapatid ko sa cebu, contractor ng __, malaki ang kinita niya ng matapos ang project na yon. Siguro hanggang sa magkamatayan kami, hindi na kami magkikita non. Sobrang yaman na niya, hindi na niya ako kailangan. Tsk. Hindi kasi ako naging matalino sa pera e. Kung hindi ako nag-casino, sabong at inom-inom noon, hindi sana ako ganito ngayon. Kung kailan matanda na, saka pa walang pera. Sayang."

- Si Manong Taxi Driver, nagsisintimyento habang stress na stress ako dahil sa punyetang traffic sa c5.

Inspite of all the efforts, late pa rin akong dumating sa office. 7:00 ang simula ng meeting. Alas kuwatro pa lang ng hapon gising na ako. Hindi na ako kumain sa bahay (wala pa rin namang luto) at nag take out na lang ako ng food from jabi. Ang hirap pa mag abang ng taxi sa Paseo. Ironic talaga. Kahit anong effort ang gawin mo, late pa rin. Naalala ko tuloy nung morning shift pa ako na lagi ako cry baby sa byahe dahil napaka-traffic sa EDSA sa araw araw na ginawa ng Diyos.


Nakakatawa yung kapitbahay naming barbero. Nanghiram siya ng gunting sa kapatid ko (which is mine) dahil may gugupitan daw siya!


Kaninang umaga, I had breakfast with someone. Naglabas ng sama ng loob tungkol sa jowa niya. Sa sobrang kasamaan ng lover niya, nahawa ako sa galit. Kung pwede ko lang ikwento dito ng detalye, malamang lahat ng makakabasa nitong blog ko ay magagalit din don. Promise! Kaya sa tuwing makikita ko o makakasalubong ngayon dito sa opisina yung taong yon, umaakyat sa ulo ang lahat ng dugo ko at gusto kong sugurin at saktan to the max para magtino!


Had dinner in a resto near the office with team mates. Sobrang busog. Ang saya ng pagkanta ng mga crew sa dalawang birthday celebrants. Haha! Ang kulet talaga!

Mga taxi driver na mandaraya!

Ayoko sa lahat ng iniisahan ako ng kapwa ko. Male-late na ako kagabi at umuulan pa kaya napilitan ako mag taxi ulit. Ang bwisit na driver may daya yung metro! Lintik na matanda yon! Normally, from Global hanggang sa amin ay 185 pesos lang pero, putakte, inabot kagabi ng 230. Sobrang asar talaga pero wala akong magawa. Bakit ba ganyan ang karamihan ng mga taxi? Makarma sana kayong lahat dahil sa panlalamang ninyo sa kapwa nyo! Leche kayo!

Waiting for 6:30pm

Im here in BK glorietta for almost 4 hours now. Reading stuffs, updating my Facebook account and trying to improve my blog. I wish I could learn more so I could improve my page. Il be watching The Red Shoes in a bit.

I was in the poetry reading/anniversary of kilometer 64 last night. Half of the performers are my friends. Ive seen for the first time a lady named Babes Alejo, who sang "Kontradiksyon" Galing nya! We were all amazed with her performance.

prgrmmr77

meron daw isang event. ewan ko kung anong pamagat. pupunta ang lahat ng mga kaibigan ko sa filipinowriter.com.
gabi na ng makarating ako sa hindi pamilyar na lugar. hinanap ko ang tatlong taong first timers na nakumpirma kong darating din sa event na iyon.

nahanap ko silang tatlo pero isa lang ang natatandaan ko, yung lalaking mataba, maitim, kulang kulang ang ngipin, nakashorts, sandals at round neck black shirt. ewan ko kung bakit ganon ang itsura nya.

bigla akong nagising pagkatapos ng panaginip na iyon. ang lalaking nakita ko ay si prgrmmer77 aka yuco daw. dahil sa panaginip na iyon kaya ko naisulat to. hahahha... weird noh.

sige, balik na ko ulit sa pagtulog.
