Cebu Trip

I received email from my boss today asking me to travel to Cebu City in 2 weeks to give system demonstration to a certain client. Actually he send me message last friday about this. I thought that was not a formal request. I don't wish to travel especially riding on a ferry. After what had happened to Princess of the Stars a few days back. It's really a bit scary to travel now. The climate is changing fast.My family doesn't know about this yet. I'm sure it will give them some worries. What shall I do? And how about my classess and our upcoming activities? Huhuhu I cannot really think right now. But I know the bottom line here is I really need to go. Part of the job. :(

Sofia's Cafe Bossa

Despite of my too busy schedule today, I still manage to sneak out some time and browse youtube.com. Whenever I feel stress, Bossa's song always becomes my nest. I went to youtube to browse Sofia's performance. I love sofia's voice so much because it sound so sexy and she's too well in giving justice to her song. Her performance doing the "Falsa Baina" was really fascinating and cool. While she sings, she has managed to play the guitar. That's really a plus factor. Wish I could do that one of these days *wink*. I found the music video also of her own rendition of the song "Water of March". Her voice is so unique. I like Sitti's voice but I love sofia's voice better. Hope she will have her concert here so I could watch her perform live. Here's her video. Enjoy watching.

Innocence

First day of the week and I know lots of things waits for me to accomplish especially at work. My boss will be here and I'm pretty sure it's going to be long meetings and presentations to clients. My morning is doing well. I slept very late last night because I need to finish some things that I have left out at work at the same I have started making the PowerPoint presentation for our class report this coming Wednesday. My group mates and I will meet again tonight to finalize our report. My MBA subjects are getting a bit tough to handle but I like challenges so I'm sure it's going to be fine. Anyway, it feels like I miss someone today. I know the world would never understand. But the act of suppression would only make it grow deeper and uncontrollable. I don't know what to do sometimes. I'm trying to understand what's really happening now. Is this fate? Maybe. On my way here to my office, I heard Avril Lavigne's Innocence. It's so lovely that it made me recall something cute. There's a line there that says "I wouldn't change a thing about it. This is the best feeling. This innocence is brilliant. I hope that it will stay." Quite cute. I posted it here. Have sometime to listen to the music. It's very nice and sweet. Have a great day!

Friday..Fly Day

I'm doing great today though quite bewildered with some emotions but at the end of the day I know where I should stand and what's right and what's wrong. But one thing I'm certainly sure about, I would never do things that will hurt my family. I should never be selfish. I should always prioritize their happiness before mine because it will give sensible meaning of purpose. And embracing it will guarantee lifetime happiness. Have you notice? I’m quite poetic hehehe. Well Piscean really does. I'm doing a request letter now. I've been requesting the management to buy additional server for us. I know this would be an add-on to the overhead expense of the company that's why I need to justify it clearly and present all the objectives and the benefits it could provide not only to the company but more importantly to our devoted clients. Just like what my MBA class last summer taught me, our social responsibility should always be on top in our list to attain higher success in business. And I think buying that server would definitely be a plus factor. I will not enumerate the details further but I have been studying this setup a few months already and so far, my study proves me that this will definitely guarantee 100% efficiency and reliability to our customers. I couldn't finish it yet because I'm thinking of the right words to put in there. So while I got a minute to think, I got this chance to update my blog. By the way, I change the theme. Hope the readers will like it. Thank GOD I don't have work tomorrow so I could have some time to sleep and have some exercise. I feel I'm getting heavier now LOL. Maybe I should start again my old habit having cereal every morning. Tomorrow night I will attend my MBA class too. My sister and brother wanted me to join them after my class. I'm not yet sure though because I think we need to discuss our report for next week. I have some muscle pain right now. Don't tell it's a sign of aging hahaha. I'm too young for that *wink*. It's been a stressful week for me. But thank GOD everything was settled. What really tortures me is not my physical nor my mental activities but emotional stress eats me a lot. So glad, I find the ways to release it. Have a Happy Weekend!

A Simple Sorry

Yesterday, I was so sad indeed because of some problems that I've been resolving at home. I was hurting inside that anytime yesterday I think I'm going to burst tears. Like I always said, family is my source of strength. They’re like my batteries. Without them or if one of them becomes busted, I cannot operate. I went to some of the sites found in the web yesterday afternoon and read some of the verses from the Bible regarding forgiveness and handling personality conflict. True, it enlightened me and gave me guidance on what to do during that time. I simply recognized that I too has faults and needed to say sorry. It is usually because of one’s pride that's why sometimes it took us forever to say these words and I know that's exactly how I feel during those times. But then again, it seemed that someone guided me and help me do the right thing. It was so amazing that just saying that sincere "sorry" without expecting anything in return turned everything ok again. And it was such blissful to hear the same too :-). Anyway, I have attended my MBA class last night but our instructor was absent. But I'm so glad I've got the chance again to see my classmates and their laughter really lifted me up last night. I’m so thankful for them. They know who they are. And so now that things seemed doing fine, I want to feel inspired and be able to reach out again especially to those people that I truly care family and friends. I started my morning today here in the office by doing some programming jobs to give assistance to my programmers. I know they're much occupied already with programming loads so I give assistance to anyone of them who needed some help. It's good thing by the way that my boss cancelled his trip this week and rescheduled it next week. At least we could have some time to finalize the system that we're developing for a certain client here in our city. I'm going to attend my class tonight so wish I could let myself be me again. I may not be able to show it to all but at least to some who truly cares. Yaiksss.. My blog is getting too serious. I'll try to post something lively next time. But as I said this blog is my witness and the readers too *wink*. Thanks for visiting.

Blue Monday

My morning is not so great today. I have sleepless night and really did cried hard. Can't tell the reason but I'm still glad I have manage to accompany my little boy to his school earlier and attended the orientation. Hope everything will be settled soon because I don't know if I can handle it all if the situation will continue. Perhaps I would sacrifice my MBA because I need to prioritize and give more time for my YanYan. Can't make this long. Nothing more to say. Sorry.. :=(

Too Proud..

I have skipped a little in posting my messages here. Last Saturday till Monday, we did some paintings at home. I’ve decided to change the color of our little house from blue to cool yellow. It was a hands-on job for the entire family including my brother. My right hand numb a little bit. It seemed that a portion of the muscles was twisted. But it was really fulfilling seeing our output, it was such an accomplishment. Our neighbors were joking around telling us that "lots of painter now will surely lost their job" LOL. Anyway, I love painting just like my mother. Each time I wish to change the color of a certain spots in the house, I could easily change it without additional cost particularly the labor LOL. Also, I've been really busy preparing the things needed for my little "Yanyan" school requirements. It’s going to be Yanyan’s first time of school. His classes will start this coming Monday and I'm too excited for him. I'm going to be absent by then to accompany him to his school at the same time attend the orientation. Yesterday afternoon, I finally managed to enroll myself at the university where I took my MBA. I decided to have Section “A” schedule because I want to allocate my whole Saturday for Yanyan's school meetings and others. I'm really a bit tired today. Just awhile ago I went to a mall to buy other things that I left out last time like raincoat, lunch box, other garments and additional school supplies. Tonight, I need to cover his books and notebooks to make it always neat. I want to see to it that I will be there to assist him all the time especially doing his homework so I need to adjust all my schedules. I did some browsing of his books last night and I'm quite surprised because the topics were all very advanced. The author is already assuming that the kids could read already. Good thing my little “Yanyan” knows how to read now the alphabet and numbers from 1 to 100 even though he's just four years old. He is quite smart just like the tree who bears him, “aheemmm.. hehehe”. Do you know that at his age he knows how to play chess already? Last night, he challenged me again and we play one on one. Well of course, I made him win so he could gain more confidence. But I’m quite amazed myself that at his age he knows the moves in playing chess. Just like for example “The Horse”, you should form an “L” every time you move it and YanYan could perform that so easily. Sometimes he just pick the chessboard, go to our neighbor’s house and challenge his “Kuyas” ( as he called) to play chess with him LOL. I’m just too proud of having him and too thankful indeed. By the way, my MBA class will also start next week. So next week would be indeed a tough week for me because my boss will be here too and we are going to present our financial software to a certain client here in our city. Also June 19 is quite special and I need to prepare lots of things for that day. Woosssh!! It's going to be DARNA mode next week I guess LOL. Oh.. I almost forgot.. HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL FILIPINOS!!

India "Land Of The Hindus"

Just awhile ago my sister's boyfriend sent me these pictures. He's in India right to handle a certain project of Globe Telecom Inc. I think the one involving TGN-Intra Asia Cable System, an international submarine cable project spearheaded by VSNL International of India, which will link the country to Japan, Hong Kong, and Singapore with onward connectivity to the US. Wish I could also visit this place. The views were all fantastic. I'm posting it here so you will see it too. Thanks "Jang" for the pictures. :=)

My To do List Today

I feel great this morning. I have managed to do my circuit workout last night at around 9pm. Although I feel some muscle pain right now but its ok because I also feel my strength was being regenerated. I have many things to do today. My boss emailed me to construct another set of applications intended for specific clients. He said we will soon again implement our billing system to other telecom company just like what we did to Datelco Global Communication at Tagum Davao del Norte. And then again, me and my team will handle the accounts. We need to finish constructing the Customer Care System which is bit complicated indeed to develop :-(. This morning I will construct databases and a web broker for Pan de Pugon Store. The design of the system will be web based because the main highlights would be the built in Point of Sale System which I think really captured the interest of Pan de Pugon owners. After I set up this account, I will give mandate to my programmers to start doing the development of modules including customization and recompilation of all modules that we have constructed before. I need also to answer emails from sales managers who's been doing follow ups with regards to the status of the accounts they're handling. These are the accounts who just recently subscribe to our financial softwares. Giving them a report of full deployment will be their basis to start the billing of software usage. Our work is a bit tough but as what I always tell my team, we should think of it as part of growing and way of developing our skills. What we're doing actually is not only for the good of company but more importantly for ourselves to be a better person today and tomorrow. Do you know that I can't concentrate well without listening to any songs? And everytime I do programming jobs, I need to listen to some fast beat songs. And If I couldn't formulate the logic of the codes, I sing along with the singer. LOL. Well that's me. That's why people dont see much stress in my face because I take everything lightly despite of how hard it is to handle such scenarios. Well it's a good habit I guess besides it saves me a lot particularly buying medicines to relieve stress. You have to try it too. Goodluck!

Melody Of The Heart

Just now I turned my speakers on and listened to some of my songs collection. As this certain song starts to play, it seemed my world suddenly stops. I stop typing and appeared puzzled I guess. But after awhile, I type again. How could I post this message if I will not type LOL. Anyway, it feels like I could hardly breath and something from within all of a sudden wanted to be unleashed. I actually feel lots of emotions every time I hear this song. I feel love, happiness, pain, doubts, gratitude, and a lot more. I'm not quite sure but maybe because the song itself tells about one's life. I posted it here so you will hear it too. I got this copy from a friend. I told him that every time I listen to this song, it's like I want to cry. He answers maybe it’s just because of the melody. Hmmm he could be right besides I love Bossa so much and Isabel Ortega's Bossa rendition of this song is really beautiful. What's in this song that indeed made me reach my inner self from the deepest? Maybe because of my music's passion that gave me the ability to appreciate the melody of the song so much that I could merely feel each single detail of the words and the melody itself. But somehow it made me feel inspired though. Hmmm good thing I have this blog so I could write everything that I think and feel every now and then. This blog is my witness.

It Hurts..

I was given a shot of anti Hepa A vaccine this afternoon. The needle doesn’t hurt much but the liquid injected in my left arm made me really uncomfortable now. I was supposed to take the shot last week but since I was a bit sick, our nurse scheduled me today and so I took it. I am actually afraid of needles but it is also important to become protected these days because the case of Hepa A is also rampant everywhere. Sometimes we tend to eat or drink anything, anywhere especially if we do travels a lot. So I'm still glad our office offered this kind of health program although it really hurts :(. Hope it will settle later so I could continue with my usual tasks. I'm a bit uneasy now doing my work. It made me feel tired. They should exempt me today LOL Excuses...? Anyway, my weekend was really fantastic and I really had fun. Last Saturday night was a memorable one. I go out together with my close friends in MBA. Hmmmm I'm truly happy that time and my sincerest thanks to those who made me part of it. I think next week is the start of our enrollment for the 1st semester. I still couldn’t decide yet which schedule should I take. It would be a little bit different now. I need to adjust because my little master will also start his classes this coming June 16 and I need to make myself available always to help him with his homework. I'm too excited for him. I love to have the Tuesday and Wednesday night class because I hate to wake up too early during Saturday’s. Hmm but still thinking though. We'll see. That's all for now. I'm typing using my right hand only. :( By the way, it's my sis birthday today. I still couldn't think of something as my gift for her. Shall I give her wine? No, I'm sure it will give me discomfort after waking up tomorrow morning LOL. Besides, I just have my vaccine. It's a no no I guess. *Wink*
