Sagittarius in 2015

Who can not be this excited in 2015?!? What a great year to be a Sagittarius! With so much admiration, respect, and authority coming your way, it could be hard to remember to be modest. Make the effort, though, be gracious and understated, and people will regard you all the more. http://astrology.horoscope.com/horoscope/mobile/mobile-index-horoscopes.aspx?s=9&type=yearlyhoroscopes posted from Bloggeroid

Birthday Syndrome

Missing this view. Yung sa lawak ng lupaing ito, more than jogging, mas masarap matulala, magmuni-muni at mag senti. Yung mag-iisip-isip ka 'What have you done differently this year?' 'What have you accomplished?' 'What are your challenges?' and 'What are you thankful for?' Yung maiisip mo na lang na of all the drama you've gone through this year, you've been stronger and you became a better person. That you are ready to face the world again and to keep on moving forward. 😃👍👊🙌 #birthdaysyndrome #senti #jetjetadventures #argiesbackyard #keepthefaith #goodvibes

God Is Working On You

Hebrews 12:6 NIV "because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.” Sometimes we tend to complain about our challenges without realizing that God is trying to teach us a lesson. He has his ways to straighten us out. He made us; therefore, He knows us better than anyone else. We just have to accept the fact that the Lord's discipline is for our own good. posted from Bloggeroid

Maximize Your Bonus

Shopping. Let me guess, you're already budgeting your 13th month pay and been thinking through what to buy - a new gadget - be it iPhone6+, GoPro, Samsung S5 or Note4, or that Michael Kors watch you've been wanting to have, that trip to Hong Kong, Singapore or Malaysia you've been planning or whatever "gift-to-myself-because-i-have-been-working-so-hard" kind of thing, I hope we can manage to maximize this money in such a way that it will continue to benefit us for a long period of time. We can either 1) Payoff our debt, 2) Get an insurance or an investment 3) Start a small business or 4) Develop new skills. Maybe it's high time I develop that cooking and baking skills I've been hiding. Hahaha posted from Bloggeroid

Food Trip - Cebu

Travel Dates: September 12 - 13 , 2014 I haven't been to these places and it pays to have a review. Of course great food tastes better when shared with good people . Right? Lantaw - A Filipino restaurant located in Cordova, Mactan, Cebu. Phone 032-514-2959 / 09236522270 / 09998502707 / 09273151695 You can feel the breeze of the air and the waves in the ocean - while eating. Yeah. I find it really exciting until I get to experience my "bad hair day" moment because of the air and feeling a little comfortable and my sea sickness kicking in, but yeah, the entire experience was new to me and the food is really amazing! 8 out 10! Fudge - They say they are the best boutique pastry shop in Cebu. Featuring unique and authentic food, highlighting sinfully delicious desserts. Fudge... surrender to temptation.

Cebu - Where my heart is!

Cebu City  Travel Date: Sept 12 - 13, 2014 No, it wasn't my first time in Cebu. In 2007, I have volunteered to be relocated in Cebu when ePerformax was expanding. I kinda felt that it was a good move for me back then and I really felt that something's up for me in this place. Cebu gave me the liberty to know myself better; to know what I really wanted in life, taught me lessons of life beyond words and imagination. It was a mixed feeling of lost and love. I hated and loved Cebu at the same time. Only time can tell. This is going to be my first travel after my break up and i feel so strange and aggressive booking this flight. " I am going to meet someone's family and stay with them for a couple of days " This has lingered my mind all through out. I wasn't really sure why i booked that pricey ticket, all I have in mind is to shy away from the busy buzz in Manila and all my issues in the office. I thought, " This is going to be a break for me ...

Ang Love is Isang Oxymoron

Oxymoron noun, plural oxymora [ok-si-mawr-uh, -mohr-uh] (Show IPA), oxymorons. Rhetoric 1. a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in “cruel kindness” or “to make haste slowly.”. Nakakatawa talaga ang love. Isa siyang napakalaking oxymoron. Lahat ng pwede mong masabi sa kanya, baliktarin mo at totoo pa rin. Ang labo diba? Pero ang linaw. Masaya magmahal. Malungkot magmahal. Di mo naiintindihan pero naiintindihan mo. Walang rason. Maraming rason. Di mo na kaya, pero kaya mo pa rin. Masakit magmahal. Pero okey lang. Amp! Ano ba talaga?! May kaibigan ako, sabi niya dati "Love is only for stupid people." Nakakatawa kasi laude ang standing niya, pero dumating ang panahon, na-in-love din si ate. At ayun, tanga na siya ngayon. Lahat kasi ng nahahawakan ng love nagiging oxymoron din. O kaya paminsan, nagiging moron lang. Hindi lang kasi basta baliktaran ang pag-ibig. Lahat ng bagay nababaligtad din niya. Lahat ng malala...

Elsie's 60th Birthday Celebration

Planning a DIY Surprise Birthday Celebration wasn't easy. That's when you will experience a lot of stress, challenges, drama and all other hindrances you can think of. BUT, overcoming is going to be the most gratifying feeling you could ever have! So, I am sharing with you some of the things I have been through and the things I took note of in planning my mom's 60th birthday. I know you might be struggling too, hopefully this article would give you a little of idea on what the next steps are. So sit back, relax and read on! Step 1: Get a venue. Depending on how many guests you are planning to invite, you can reserve a function room that can accommodate all your guests. You can consider getting a room with consumable food and drinks to save money. I have thought of Shangri-La Chinese Restaurant in West Ave. - I didn't like it there because parking space was shared with Kownloon House, so next. Cabalen Restaurant in West Ave has a wide selection of food choices, ...

ARTICLE NOT MINE: FORGOT WHO WROTE IT. GOOD READ.

“How could she do something like this to me?”  said a voice in my head. All the time. Everyday. Back in 2011, when everything had gradients, iOS icons made sense, and people used deodorants, I was stuck in middle of a pretty bad depression due to my divorce. Thankfully ,  I think I was smart enough (and had great people around me) so I managed my way out. One day I walk into the office, and my day begins at my computer screen. It was all great, until I saw this message: Your password has expired. Click ‘Change password’ to change your password. No shit.  I thought clicking ‘Change password’ was gonna do something else. I read this dumb message in my mind with  angry grandpa  voice: The damn password has expired . At my workplace, the  Microsoft Exchange server  is configured to ask  thousands of employees around the planet to change their passwords. Every 30 days. Here is the horse-shit: The server forces us to use at...

Un-Love

Broken-hearted na naman ako. Sa gitna ng pakikibaka sa aking sarili - lalabas o mananatili sa loob ng aking munting paraiso. Pinilit kong itago sa kadiliman ng aking silid ang bawat alaala ng ating nakaraan, subalit, ang iyong alala ay kusang kumakawala, bumabalik sa mga di nawakasang nakalipas. ewan ko, natigilan ako’t napahinto, naisip kita. at sa pagpasok mo sa aking gunita ay kalungkutan ang aking nadama. kalungkutan na pilit kong tinatakbuhan at tinatakasan. nakakalimutan na kita. totoo. madami akong ginagawa. madami akong inaasikaso, or i should i say, i made myself busy with a lot of things. friends to spend time with, family, out-of town trips, Batangas at ang inaasikasong negosyo, and scores, yes ang scores, ang mga libro, ang mga pelikula at mga musikang pauli-ulit ko ng narinig. madami akong napagkaabalahan. trabaho - puro na lang trabaho. wala na kong ibang pinagkaabalahan sa mga oras na nagawa ko na ang lahat - kundi trabaho. wag kang magalala, okay n...

Good Bye

I've had to say goodbye more time that I would have liked. But everyone can say that. And no matter how many times we do even for the greater good it still stings. And though we'll never forget what we've given up, we owe it to ourselves to keep moving forward. What we can't do is live our lives always afraid of the next goodbye because chances are, they're not going to stop. The trick is to recognize when a goodbye can be a good thing, when is the chance to start again.

When You’re In A Good Relationship, You Learn These 10 Things

If my (ex) boyfriend would have a chance to read this article earlier, we could have saved our relationship. I won't be feeling lonely this time, i won't be missing him much and I don't have to worry about moving on. And maybe, just maye, we are still enjoying each other's company. Sharing with you this great article o riginally published in  http://www.lifehack.org/articles/communication/when-youre-good-relationship-you-learn-these-10-things.html by Allison Renner.  This would have saved a lot of relationships.  When You’re In A Good Relationship, You Learn These 10 Things I’d had serious relationships before meeting my fiance, with a couple lasting for years. I thought I was an adult; I thought I knew how to be a great girlfriend. Meeting someone I had a serious connection with taught me that nothing I had experienced before was real. True love feels different than casual relationships – even if those relationships lasted for years (often well past their ex...

The Mid - Year Crisis

I  call it Mid - Year Crisis. And literally, this happens in the middle of the year. Have you been here: Anxious about the status of your career Panicky about your financial status which is directly correlated to your, uhuh, Career Forced to get married in the next two years because you're not getting any younger Fretting over time lost where you feel you've been completely unproductive yet you feel so tired and restless Pushing the panic button because at this month, you haven't really achieved anything from the goals you have listed at the start of this year Felt so alone and no one cares to listen because (a) You're too embarrassed to tell any of your friends (b) You know from past experiences that your friends won't care (c) They are also experiencing the same crisis Bring down the curtain and wind up that it is really hard to be successful in this life and it's just so hard to achieve your dreams so you better look for an alternative, U...

SM Delivery

While technology is changing the entire shopping experience of most of us, I think if SM (or other Department Stores or Groceries for that matter) has delivery options (similar to IG Seller) that would have been really awesome! Right?! #justsaying #wishfulthinking #malaymointhefuture #innovation #adaptability #parangAmazonlangorEbay #brilliantidea #magbusinesskayaako #boom

10 New Year's resolutions and how to make them work

So this article from   ABS-CBNnews.com  Posted at 01/01/2014 8:41 AM | Updated as of 01/01/2014 8:41 AM has been an inspiration for me, not on my New Year's Resolution but on how to come up with specific action plans. This I can use on my next Team Building session. MANILA – It’s that time again when people start making resolutions for the New Year. But how many of these are maintained and fulfilled? Here are ten of the most common New Year’s resolutions and how you can make them work. Resolution #1: I will lose weight. How to make it work: Be more specific. How much weight do you want to lose? What is your time frame for reaching these goals? The more specific you are, the more likely you will be able to reach them. More importantly, make sure that you have a specific diet plan to fulfill this resolution. Here’s an example: “I will only eat half a cup of rice per meal and more vegetables.” The next thing you know, you are already two sizes smaller. Click  her...
