The New Haven to Captured Memories

Tumblr screenshot
I logged in to my tumblr account (click here) today. I haven't updated my tumblr since July. Left the site since it was getting crowded and too many reblogs from other people. I might be using Tumblr again though for photo blogging. ;)

Update : While I was reading my past posts, I realized that this account doesn't suit me now. So, I made another one. Visit it here. It's still empty though. Will update it tonight. :)

Singleness is a Blessing~

I'm halfway done reading Joshua Harris' I Kissed Dating Goodbye. For months, I have been looking for that book since I started reading its sequel, Boy Meets Girl and finally it is now available at National Bookstore and costs 195php. 

Because of the book, I've come to realize that Singleness is a blessing from God. It is a season in one's  life to reconnect and strengthen one's relationship to Him. You don't have to rush things up, you just have to trust Him and everything will fall into place at His right time. There is a time for everything, like when snow appears during the winter and leaves starting to fall on autumn. He has His perfect timing that neither you nor I knows. Trust in Him and you will be blessed. Believe~


OJT General Assembly

We had our OJT General Assembly yesterday. The meeting was about having a Year End Party on December 18th (tentative date). Majority attended and voted to have the party inside the company premises, which I think is definitely boring. The agreed contribution for the party is 150php including the food which will be catered. And then, no exchanging gifts. How is that? Duh! 


I was picked as the representative from our school (thanks to Arlen) which is tasked to coordinate with the other representatives and event organizers and disseminate any updates regarding the party to my school mates; in that case, Arlen and Rag2. We are only three from USC here and the coordinator said that we'll be having a presentation per school during the party. Isn't that really unfair? I swear, I wouldn't perform for them. Hahaha!


With regards with the tentative date, I think Arlen and I can't make it. It's my Grandfather's birthday on that day and it's her brother's birthday too. If there are any chances that the party will be moved to an earlier date, then that would be fine.

Book Cravings

Is there such thing as book cravings? If there is, then that's what I'm having right now. I want to read good books but I don't have the luxury of time and money. Too bad, isn't it? Haaay. Maybe, I can make amends to my daily schedule/routine to make time for reading but still I don't have the money. Haha! I am currently bankrupt as we speak since I just bought a camera last weekend. Oh well, I couldn't wait for the next pay day or maybe I can ask my mom to buy me a book?! Hmmm.. /winks

And also, my Birthday is coming up. Twenty-two more days and I'll be turning twenty-one. I am getting old but as what I've read somewhere, "Age is just an issue of the mind and matter. If you don't mind it, it won't matter". Wahaha. What a great excuse. :p 

This year, I want to celebrate my birthday with my family and as well as my "friends". Friends who have always been there for me through good times and bad times. What's the point of spending your special day with people who aren't that special to you or those who you'd see and hear about when there are events coming up and not when you just need someone to talk to about anything? Think about it. I know I have a point on this. :)

At long last!

It's Saturday and our teacher said that we will not be having classes today. Yay! ..but we are diligent students so we decided to start working on our project at David's place in Talamban.. Haha.


Arlyn and I taking a picture break. Haha


We finished around 12:00 noon and we were both off to Ayala. Bought something there too. :p

While making our purchase. :)

Then we had lunch at TDF! Weee. Cheesecake, love love. Haha!

So full already.

After 3 months of delay, Thank you! Haha

Skinny?


Am I skinny? I think not. In fact, I've been gaining weight for the past month. But my friends say otherwise. They say I'm skinny and I firmly disagree with that. Hahaha! I still even have fats in my stomach area. No abs = not skinny. Hahaha. MY definition of skinny is like Kim Chiu, a local artist here in our country. She's like skin and bones. No fats, even a gram can be found in her body. Really, she is that thin. :p

/This is really a random post. I don't know what else to do. It's already past nine in the morning and the regulars are not here yet at the office. It's just me and the other OJT; he's from Luzon and I don't really speak tagalog that good so it's better to just keep quiet. Hahaha!
/My life is kinda boring...

I've been singing that to myself since I arrived here in the office and I can't help but ask myself if it (my life) really is boring.. Uhmm.. I've been juggling work and school now since classes have already started this week. I am expecting to graduate five months from now. Yay!

School has already started last Monday and so far my teachers are kinda "boring" too or maybe because of the subject. I don't know, really. And also, I don't like all of my classmates. Hahaha. I miss our batch. Tsk! But anyway, I have nothing to do with them. I'm at school to learn and that is what I'm supposed to do and nothing else. Besides, I have Arlen with me all the time. We have our own little world at school. Hahaha!

Work is sometimes challenging and sometimes not. It really depends on what tasks our TL gives me. It is usually writing small programs to automate their process to make work efficient. Most of the time I don't have anything to do. That's what I least like here, no work. I just sit here and do other stuffs with the computer like surfing the internet. But hey, there are a lot of limitations in internet browsing here. For one, Facebook is blocked. Yes, it is blocked. Haha! Sometimes, other OJTs send me instant messages and when I feel like replying, I do and if not, I'm sorry. :p Can you guess who is my constant companion and chat mate here at work? Well, it is still Arlen. It's always Arlen. Haha.

After school or work we sometimes go to Ayala and just roam around, window shopping and then we're headed home. At home, I either watch television or surf the internet. I do the latter more like every night until I go to sleep. All day, I face the computer and I never get tired of it. Haha! Good thing, I took a computer related course which is BS Information Technology. :)

Happy Halloween!


Yeah, that's me over there. Haha. That was taken a few years back (I still have my short hair.) and edited by a friend. I look funny instead of scary, right? Haha.

It's the time of the year that we, Filipinos remember our departed loved ones. Today, the whole family went to Queen City Memorial Gardens to visit our family members who already died. We brought candles, flowers and prayed the Holy rosary there. 
When the heat was already unbearable, we decided to go and eat our lunch somewhere. Went to Family Choice, Royal Concourse, Ayala but they were all close for the holiday. So we were off to our last resort, SM and waited for a couple of minutes for them to open along with a lot of people. We had Chinese for lunch (brunch in my case) at Flavors of China at the Northwing. Then we were headed home. :)



//OT: I think I might cut my hair short again since it's becoming dry already or some hot oil treatment will help. >.<
