There are so many problems that we face in every single [...]
What makes me happy these days…
I don’t know if I should call it pathetic but hoarding books is what makes me happy these days. Call it pathetic! Go ahead and do it. But it’s really making me happy. Now if only I can find a way to create a bigger corner for me, I can already display all the books [...]
An old woman
When I grow old, I pray that I have enough resources I can tap into so that I won’t be asking for help from others. There is this old woman who kept on asking for money and other things from a family. Sure, they’re related but sometimes, the family just feels like she’s just asking [...]
Not really a negative person
How to you spell pathetic? It’s looking forward to Monday morning so you can find out what’s new in the Pet Society store. That’s how you spell P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C! If you’ve been reading this blog, you’d be thinking that I am very much a negative person. Sorry about the rants. This blog was built with the [...]
Hard at work again
I feel guilty. I’ve been coasting for a few weeks now, not really exerting that much effort. It’s bad of me, I know. I am actually making an effort now to correct those weeks. I will do every thing to go back to that state where every waking hour is spent hard at work. That [...]
Hot in the city!
You wouldn’t believe how hot it is in the Philippines right now. Unbelievably hot! It feels like you are living inside an oven. The electric fans are blowing hot wind. Even staying put or lying still, you will be drenched in sweat. It is that hot! Believe me, when you attempt to walk without an [...]
We need to fail.
I read from my favorite preacher Bro. Bo Sanchez that we need to fail. I do think so, too. We need to fail to be able to determine our own strengths. I failed several times in the past. In my career. I stumbled and fell and stood up again and again. And you know what? [...]
My family
Name three words you would use to describe your family. Large. Loud. Simple. We are a large family. Large pertaining to number and body size. 6 brothers and sisters, and my parents. 2 died, my brother and my mom. We are overweight people. I know, it’s bad. It’s in our genes. Loud. We are literally [...]
Jaded on friendship
My friends and I were saddened when we heard first-hand how bitter about life a former teacher is. He narrated how he used to go out with so many friends. The number slowly dwindled when one by one his friends got married, migrated to another country, worked abroad, etc. He was bitter about it. He [...]
A simple message to all…
Happy Valentine’s Day to all! Happy Sunday as well
Spinster
We have quite a few spinsters in the family. On both sides, paternal and maternal. I don’t see anything wrong with growing old alone and without a husband and kids. But I do acknowledge the fact that it can be lonely. A cat or any pet can keep them company but up to when? Pets [...]
Don’t stop!
I am off to bed now, people! I will be back after a couple of hours for more work. But before I leave, let me share with you this inspiring quote/photo I found… I promise I won’t stop until I get to where I want to be. Have a great week ahead everyone! Choose to [...]
Perfect set up
Listening to the radio while working is a perfect set up for me. My mind works well when there’s music in the background. I think I got this habit from my mom. I remember seeing her washing and ironing clothes while listening to mellow music. I grew up in a household that always has a [...]
Another blessing
God is really good! Thank You once again for the blessing… I do hope more will come. There’s a lot of things I am planning for 2010 and I need help. Big time!
Very personal
When I conceptualized this blog, it’s all about everything very personal – my innermost thoughts, feelings and emotions, my rants about life, home woes. I had to rant about a former blogger friend and I gave my identity to some people. I don’t regret it but I couldn’t rant about them anymore! Hahaha joke The [...]
Are you ready for Christmas?
It’s now 33 days before Christmas. Are you ready for it?
Fire scare
We had a fire scare last night. A building two blocks away caught fire. But since the street it was in was flooded with 6 feet of murky waters, the firetrucks couldn’t go anywhere near it. As a result, the raging fire spread in several structures and houses through the power line. And it came [...]
Something new, something blue…
Yay to the new theme! I love it! Anne of Pink Fab comes highly recommended. She makes beautiful, chic and fab themes for those who need it. I’ve been using free themes eversince I started this blog and I thought, why not have one custom-made for this? My Life, Unplugged is a blog about my [...]
Haircuts and worries
I had my hair cut really, really short. I don’t like maintaining long hair. Wash and go works for me the best. Also, cutting my hair is a sort of ritual whenever I have serious worries. I would like to think of it as a symbolic chopping away what’s ailing me. It felt so much [...]
Can write more
Weird. I can work more using my laptop. I can write more entries in the same number of hours than when I am using my desktop. For some reason, my fingers are better accustomed to the soft keys of the laptop. But I need to have this reformatted before I use it any further. This [...]
