2008...

It's year 2008...

A new year, a new beginning, a new chapter of life...

New friends to meet, new things to do,

More challenges,more sadness, more joy...

New bf...perhaps not...

This year, I'd like my heart to take a rest...

I've been tired, loving, hurting...

Just for now, just this time,

I just want to be on my own...

Perhaps, just love myself.

Uhm, on the second thought...

I can keep a 'dream' right??? (whapaaakkkkk!)

Year 2007

I would like to make a review of how my life has been during this year..

Started this year, broken..as I parted ways with Leo...
Mid of the year...reunited with him...
By the end of the year... he's out of my life, just again..

... my life has been such a rocky road this year...

Much of it was full of pain, sadness...

The good thing is, throughout this year...I gained important people in my life...

My Teletech, UHG 4.1 Wave mates...
Jeff, Yanix, Jho, May, Ecca, and everyone else, I miss you..

My teammates, from ePurchase...who I've been working with, and been friends with..
Jay, Paul, Wengcheng, Patrickness, Lanie, Arnel,Francia, Francis, Ollie, Mona, Dean, Amabel...

Patrickness - your being 'maartie' gives me smile..
Ollie - who became a 'listener' and always said 'i told you so' to me..
Mona - my 'gymmate', and has always given me a shoulder to cry on..
kAyKaY - the constant 'chat mate', my fellow 'bitch' , haha.. wavyu...
Roslyn - for always being there reminding how "adik" i am..
Al - sorry for making you mad... =)
RJ - a new friend..
Rony - for being patient to me, ;D

Ariba JPMC peepz...
Epurchase/Sparc L1, L2, L3 - ...
who became my new family in Accenture...

To the "old" people in my life -- Inay Tootz, Mona, Brendz, Jane, CACES Peepz, SLU Peepz, salamat sa pagiging bahagi pa rin ng buhay ko.

To my family - I miss you..

Teenuh - the 'ultimate bestfriend' andyan pa rin, hehe.. mahal na mahal kita..

Other highlights...
went to Puerto Galera,
joined the soccer team,
caught two bridal bouquets,
became a godmother to my nephew, Kant,
first time to see Manila Zoo and Luneta,
won in the JPMC Amazing Race,
joined the Ariba Top Model, (even if I lost, haha!)
had a Metrowalk Night with officemates-friends,
spent Christmas in Bulacan...

I did a couple mistakes this year...
I've hurt few people...And I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause those pain,
It's just that, sometimes, you had to choose...from the limited options that you had..
Wrong choices, wrong decisions...
'Best options among the least'

I also hope I did some good deeds, more than the bad.. hehe. (bitch!)

Lastly, to the Lord, thanks for keeping me healthy, and blessed.. and strong, to be facing another year, and more years to come...

COOL OFF

Wag ka munang magalit
Ako sana’y pakinggan
Di ko balak ang ika’y saktan
Hindi ikaw ang problema
Wala akong iba
Di tulad ng iyong hinala

Sarili ay di maintindihan
Hindi ko malaman, ano ba ang dahilan
Ng pansatamantalang paghingi ko ng kalayaan
Minamahal kita, pero kelangan ko lang mag-isa

[chorus]
Wag mong isipin na hindi ka na mahal
Sarili ko’y hahanapin ko lang
At ang panahon at ang oras ng aking pagkawala
Ay para rin sa ating dalawa

Wag ka sanang lumuha
Sana’y intindihin
Ito ang dapat nating gawin
Upang magkakilala pa
At malaman kung tayo
Ay para sa isa’t isa

Wag mong pigilin ang damdamin
Sa aking pagkawala, makahanap ka bigla ng iba
Ngunit pakakatandaan
Na mahal pa rin kita, pero kelangan ko lang mag-isa

[repeat chorus]

Sarili ay di maintindihan
Hindi ko malaman, ano ba ang dahilan
Ng pansatamantalang paghingi ko ng kalayaan
Minamahal kita, pero kelangan ko lang mag-isa

[repeat chorus]

ang bestfwend ko BINOYCOT ako...wahhhhh

What will you do, if your most loved friend in this damn world is mad at you??? You rather die, hehehe...
Well, not actually galit, binoboycot lang nya ako because of this diet-gym-slimming thing I'm going through, hehe..
Kakausapin lang daw nya ko ulit pag tinigil ko na to... eh mahal kong kapatid, kayo na nga nina leo ang laging nagsasabing ang taba taba ko na... etc.. which made me develop this insecurity, na feeling ko ang taba ko na nga so much, and na parang ang pangit ko na tuloy.. hehe.
Kaya ayan, nagdecide na akong magpapayat...
Pero kung ang kapalit naman ng pagpapayat na eto eh, iboboycot mo ako, eh, as if naman matitiis kita noh??? Hindi naman sa ititigil ko na , hehe.. pero, I'll promise na, I'll eat regularly... 3X a day, with snacks pa..(though, lesser,hehe) and I'll go to the gym, hindi naman daily, 2-3 times a week lang po.. pwamish.. :)
Sige na bati na tayo.. cry cry na ko oh, *sniff* *sniff*
Anyways, this slide is for you, to remind you na, wag mo na akong boycot-in please.. hehehe... we're like this, i'm the devil and you've always been the angel,hehehe!

-I-LOVE-YOU-TEENUH-CHAN-

3G

Let me introduce to you to the 3G - Tatlong Gunggong in fact, now, 3I na, Tatlong Inggitero, hehehe.
It's composed of Cloudz-Leighyoh-Teenuh..
We've been together since,4th yr college?
Teenuh is my bestfriend.
And Leighyoh, is my boyfriend.
We've always had fun together.. we can do anything, eat anywhere, laugh at things.
We can make fool of ourselves together, and we can manage to be happy and contented just by doing nothing..
These loves making fun of me, of my balat (birthmark), my toes, my nose, my weight, my size(they always tell me I'm fat!)...
We'll I also make fun of Teenuh's malnourished state, and Leighyoh's mabahong utot..haha!!!!!
We are now INGGITEROS because, naiinggit kami sa isa't isa, hehe. wala lang! :D

college friends..

These are the people I met and been with during my college days...
Classmates, co-officers... They are all special to me. :)
I miss you guys, hoping that some day, we'd bump into each other...
Oct13-14, and Oct 20-21, are the CPA Board Exam days, and majority of these people are gonna take it, so I hope and pray, you all the best , and God bless ya all! *HUGZ*

..my family..

I'm an Ilocana. Native for that most likely.
I was born in Baguio, grew up in Abra, I stayed there till Highschool..
Then in college, I moved to Baguio for my studies in SLU.
And now, I've been living here in Manila.

I grew up with the typical, traditional family.
Close ties, but sort of not really,
Because majority of relatives on the Father side,
Have migrated in the states.

Where do I start..
I'm the youngest of SIX children in the family.
From.. Roxanne, Rainy, Spring, Winnee, Summer and Cloudy.
You may call Roxanne as Sun,
Winnee as Win or Wind...
And me as Cloudz...

As a kid, I was playful..
Proofs, are my scars in the knee, and anywhere else (Sssshhh)..
I've been tagged as "maarte", "isnabera"
I liked wearing pairs..
If it's red, then everything on me is red, top to bottom..
If it's pink, then pink it is.

I was sort of, studious back in elementary, highschool, I guess, a bit in college too...
I've always been on the top ranks (haha, kapal!!!!!)
But really, I wasn't a lazy student, I always wanted to do good with my studies.
Believe it or not, I've experienced gaining Academic Scholarship during college,
Due to being the #7 in the Dean's List of the whole College of Accountancy and Commerce..
In Elementary, I was just the 2nd Honorable Mention Awardee (4th yun, pinaganda lng, hehe), but in HS, medyo, napariwara??? kidding, transferred to different schools..
so ended up, being one of upper ranked students, but, cannot be awarded to be an honor, because, I was a transferee.

But it's all okay. I enjoyed that. I had friends from different schools. =)

As a cousin, well, competition will always be there,
Especially if you all belong in the same age bracket..
Good thing is, it was a healthy competition..
Look at us now, we're all graduates..

Yeng is a registered nurse,
Kaye has graduated, and will be taking her CPA review by November..
I graduated with a Management course, ended up as an Associate Software Engineer
The difference is, they both have kids now..
They left me single .. :)
Ooopps, Yeng hasn't gotten married yet.

Anyway, I'd like to show you some of the pictures with my family..
Cousins, parents, sisters (minus my brothers), pamangkins too..

Also a picture of our farm (though not seen)
It's our little kubo, located in the farm, (I partly own? haha)
...

Unfortunately, don't have yet the pictures of our new little angels in the family..
I'd post them later, including, those taken during my cousin's wedding. =)
