Is it really worth it? I always think so. It was my decision to switch careers. I will face the consequences. It would seem that my team doesn't just need patching. It needs a miracle. Can I be that miracle? We'll see in a year.
I'm running to my 2nd month on the job. So far, no major changes. I'm still working my way up slowly. My supervisors are in terrible need of being solid. I'm already laying my long term plans for the team. So far, my Sr. and I are the only ones in the know.
********************
Its a boring weekend. I'm still nursing my tummy as I was out for a day and a half from work due to possible food poisoning. Thankfully, my one day was an offset since I worked last Aug 20. So I only incurred a .5 absence. On Monday, I'll be reporting for work again, thus I'll use the offset on Friday so that I can work on my clearance with Sykes. In addition to that, since I was sick, I only got to work out for 2 times. I'll make it up this coming week.
********************
Everyone's going out this weekend. I'm home. I'm fine. Hi to you Mr. M. I hope to know you more.
I've shut myself from falling in love. I guess because I realised that I'm not ready to face the consequences it give to myself and my family. Even if I've accepted myself, that part of me trying to be happy was something I cast aside. My family's happiness comes first. I'm playing a martyr.
Sometimes, I just wonder if I will ever be accepted by my family...
Eitherway, to whoever you are who will be part of my life... I sing this song for you.
Music: Pakisabi Na Lang Artist: The Company
Nais kong malaman niya nagmamahal ako 'Yan lang ang nag-iisang pangarap ko Gusto ko mang sabihin 'di ko kayang simulan 'Pag nagkita kayo pakisabi na lang
Chorus: Pakisabi na lang na mahal ko siya 'Di na baleng my mahal siyang iba (Pakisabi na lang) Pakisabi huwag siyang mag-alala 'Di ako umaasa Alam kong ito'y malabo 'Di ko na mababago ('Di mababago) Ganoon pa man pakisabi na lang
Sana ay malaman niya masaya na rin ako Kahit na nasasaktan ang puso ko Wala na 'kong maisip na mas Madali pang paraan 'Pag nagkita kayo pakisabi na lang
Chorus
Pakisabi na lang umiibig ako Lagi siyang naririto sa puso ko (Pakisabi na lang na mahal ko siya) Pwede ba... (Mahal ko siya)
Aside from the storm and all the weather chaos, work hath begun to challenge me in a way where my character is put to test.
My client has been very persistent in making sure that I understand what they want. All of our meetings have had excessively repetetive topics and all that. There is much to do with my team and I told my supervisors that we will need to work together and be solid in making decisions. Before I could see my team improve, we have to beef up the management team and only then would the results fall into place.

My major disappointment this week was when I found out that my Aug 15 paycheque was held. I was expecting that money badly as I had bills due last 16th most especially power bill. We all know that Meralco disconnects power distribution faster than you could spell extension. Along with that was my Credit card and mobile phone bills. Now, I'm just holding on to hope that my paycheque from my new job comes in.
In addition to this, I now have to set at least two days of leave so I could work on my clearance. Thankfully, Miss Gemma told me that she would have the back pay release fast due to this miscommunication. My former AM had something to do with it as well. He forwarded my resignation letter to HR before the cut off, thus Payroll tagged me as resigned and took me off the list. It is a burden that this had to happen as I've developed a distaste and mistrust from people who I've come to know as managers.

Last Tuesday, I managed to complete the whole Body Step class again, but this time with a bench. I had so much fun and energy after that. Body Balance has been a great addition to my regimen as I feel much stronger every after class.
Last night, I attended the 3-hour Marathon of Old School Body Jam. It was just sensational as I managed to finished the full three hours of dancing. It was fun, exhausting, but most of all, it was the best stress reliever after a very long week.
********************
I have to agree that I am envious of Dave and Jace. They may not exhibit affection in public, but you know that something special is going on between them. The fact that both of them are subtle about each others feelings, I just completely felt like I am missing a whole lot. So far, my lovelife is worse than the weather in Siberia. Going home alone last night felt like it was the longest ride home. The heavy downpour was being one with me, on my sentiments that night. Nevertheless, I can't dwell on that. If it comes, I'll have it with open arms.

What took you so long to make me see How lucky I am cause I am free Free to do the things I wanna do What took you so long to make me feel I can give love a love so real What took you so long to let me know
Chorus:
That I can live I can love I can reach the heavens above I can right what is wrong I can sing just any song That I can dance I can fly And touch the rainbow in the sky I can be your good friend I can love you until the end
What took you so long to make me cry So I will know the reason why I'm so lucky I can smile I didn't know this for awhile
So the family got together for lunch to celebrate mum's birthday.
It was indulgence galore. We had Sze Chuan soup, Salted garlic squid, Yang Chow fried rice, sweet and sour fish fillet, mixed vegetables, 20pcs shrimp tempura.
Its rare that the fam get to hang out and be complete to celebrate something. I'm happy enough that this is something that we got to do.
********************
I'm torn on how to go about my plans for the future. For now, I just need to make sure that my credit cards are paid off. It'll be a big challenge, but I know I'll be able to succeed in that.
Thank God for his kindness. He's been so good to me and my family. I just hope that he also helps solve the Singalong problem so that mum could finally enjoy her retirement benefits.. :)

Whilst I was working out at Fitness First The Fort this evening, I stared outside and felt that I was home.
I could imagine myself on a lazy weekend, hanging out at the terrace, gazing at the cityscape, enjoying the evening breeze whilst holding a glass of merlot.
A quick drive around in my SUV to see the nightlife or just end up having tea at the High street.
It is the kind of life I'm hoping to achieve. *sigh* If I do that, I know I have to work double hard.
As for the partner? Surprisingly, I don't see him in the picture...yet.
I hope and pray that things go well. It is what I could only do.
So a very dear former co-worker of mine sent an email that made me laugh hysterically. Thanks Venice!!!
Read on and be confused.
ENJOY!

Its nice to know I've made friends (good ones) in my new job. Let's just hope that they're people I could trust.
Finally, our prayers for rain has been answered. Only this time floods came with it. Nevertheless, it is good. I hope this would help alieve the impending power and water crises. It tires me though that I've walked the whole stretch of Bicutan to Marcelo last Monday and Tuesday evening due to heavy traffic brought about by the rain (Sucat was flooded). Thankfully, tonight was much easier.

Whenever I soo handsome guys whilst walking in Makati, it donned to me that perhaps I'm too much of a stuck up bitch. I rarely smile or sometimes, the guy I like is just a major snob. Eitherway, it still consoles me that these guys are just literally scattered on the streets.

So I saw Martin tonight at the gym and we managed to have a mini talk. He's now with a new company and is preparing himself for the English proficiency test. I hope he passes. It saddens me that he doesn't have the same spark that I had for him. Anyway, I'm already over that. Now I met Paolo who is with ACS and plays volleyball. He's soooooooo cute. Yun nga ang, very reserved. So, let's see if I can get to befriend him in the near future. What's fun is that I've made more acquaintances at FF RSC. Its a blessing that I get to attend more classes and make new friends. More to come.

In my honest opinion, our training was one of the least planned activity. It is my opinion since the coverage was not seamless. Resource speakers were always late. Training materials are not updated and some have outrageously incorrect grammar.
Good thing about the training was that it showed which resource speakers were excellent in knowledge transfer and those who were there to just show off.
One really bad thing. One of the trainers was a skunk. As soon as he entered the room, a whiff of overwhelming odour.
Nevertheless, I managed to conquer the challenge. Best part of it was that I made friends with Tamura-san. Truly I say that language may be a barrier, but the Japanese people are friendly indeed.
