It was a little gloomy this morning when I woke up. And I have been feeling so tired lately. I know I need to get some really good rest but now is not yet the time. I still have a couple of days more to finish anything work-related that needs to be finished before I start my holiday vacation. A few more errands to do for my home, and I still have some packing to do for my trip home for the holidays. Yep, another case of so-little-time-so-much-to-do. But hey, guess what? I was able to finish half of my […]
12 Days of Gratitude – Day 1
So it’s already 2AM this side of the world and yet here I am still, typing this post using my new toy. I just got home about 30 minutes ago from work and once again, I am not able to sleep. #turninginsomniac My body hurts all over. My upper back hurts, my lower back hurts, my thighs and legs hurt, my feet hurt, even my head is now starting to hurt. And I still have a lot of things to do before I go home. I haven’t started with my laundry yet and my hamper is already overflowing, I haven’t […]
#RandomThoughts: Year-End Party and New Toys
Yesterday was our company’s year end party held at KPub Bbq Restaurant in BGC. Why KPub? From what I’ve heard, it was one of those few places that can accommodate our number. And this year’s theme? Something colorful. To be honest, I’ve had a hard time trying to find something to wear for the event that I decided to stick with a red top. And since it is a barbecue place, it didn’t feel right to dress up to the nines for the night. Though a lot of people really took the effort to doll up. đ So here’s what […]
December, oh, December…
It’s already the 10th of December and here I am, just about to write my first post for the month. Apparently, it will be a post that will be full of my usual blabber again. LOL. It has been a very, very busy time for me since last month. We have been locked up esconsed in the conference room at work for the past three weeks (this is our fourth week now), working on resolving a lot of issues with the project that we are involved in. We have quite a few weeks before the project is launched and to […]
Oh, Christmas Tree…
So I stayed in the big metro this weekend to have some much needed rest and a little retail therapy. Plus, I needed to clean my apartment. It doesn’t look like a home of a woman already. LOL! Anyway, so there were a lot of sale that happened this weekend. I think almost all of the big malls went on sale and no matter how many they are and how strategically located they are, there was still heavy traffic jam all over the big metro. Yesterday, I decided to see what the sale is all about in Glorietta. I haven’t […]
#RandomThoughts: Friday Madness…
Warning: this is a rant post because I just want to rant. It is quite depressing to say the least. I just needed to get these things out of my system before I start exploding. I’ll try to keep it as tame as possible, though. Consider yourself warned. It’s payday Friday for most of us corporate slaves and some have already got their bonuses. All I can say when I when I saw my payslip is: “#$(%&^@#*!@+!@$# tax!!!!”. Yeah, I hate this time of the year when I get to open my payslip and see my year-to-date tax payment and […]
What Weekend?
It’s the weekend. Yes, I just wrote that as a statement. Yay? Nay? It’s nay for me. I am so not looking forward to this weekend but I have no choice. We need to get things done so we can move on with the schedule. In other words, I have to report for work. So, if someone says, “Happy weekend!”, I’d say, “What weekend?” This is the second weekend that I will have to work. I haven’t had any decent sleep since last week, worked last weekend, rendered long hours at work this week and now another weekend support. To […]
#Random Thoughts: Manic Monday…
For most of us, Monday is the start of the work week. For me, my work week started yesterday. Yep, I was at work on a Sunday. In fact, I was working all day since last Monday. And yes, I didn’t have a weekend because I had work. I wasn’t able to go home to my son. :'( Though I called home Saturday night to talk to him and Skype’d with him yesterday night before my late dinner. Suffice it to say that I miss my little Z so much. Today was the start of our 4-week testing at work. […]
Plug-In: Crochet and Coffee
It’s been almost a week since the last post and I have been itching to post something for the past few days but I have been getting anxious and stressed out with work lately because of the high expectations and tight deadlines. I’ll keep it at that. LOL Anyway, my brother (yes, my BROTHER), has just started his own blog to showcase his hobby – crocheting. It may be unheard of for some and quite unusual to find a guy who is into needle craft such as crocheting and knitting but I think it is no different from finding a guy […]
Christmas Shopping Starts Now…
It’s already the start of the second week of November. Where have all those weeks gone by? Just barely 7 weeks and it is Christmas once again. Have you started with your Christmas shopping yet? I haven’t yet. I haven’t started decorating yet, too, since I find it a tad bit too early for Christmas decorations. We usually start decorating at the end of the month or the first weekend of December. My schedule has been going haywire lately and I haven’t had the chance to visit the sale and bazaar events that I’ve been waiting for for months. đ Today is […]
