On Timing

One of my many resolutions to myself was to move on. I would not dwell in the past and think of what might have been. I told myself that I would stop taking the initiative in making the first move. If the person would like to know me more, then that person should be the one to make it happen. I would live every moment to its fullest and not wait for what could have been to catch up with the present.

Everything was going as planned for 2010 until I got a message while I was still groggy and all. It was a forwarded message from an "unlisted" number. Good thing I was sleepy and all so I did not bother to reply or take any action.

Self control help me.

On 2010 NY Resolution

1. Less NET READ more
- I spend to much tome staring at this black box. Time is wasted with nonsensical things. I should lessen the radiation my eyes receive. Instead, I should pick up the books lying around and actually READ them.

2. Improve relationship with the ULTIMATE
- I feel LOST. I guess

3. Exercise Exercise Exercise
- Health is wealth.

4. Positive Thinking
- I appear to be a happy go luck person but deep instead all the negativity is there. I should learn to think positively to attract good vibes. Thoughts become words. Words become actions. Actions become habits. Habits will eventually become my character.

5. CAREER
- I have been in this same industry for 4 years plus. I am not getting any younger. It is really ideal for me to climb up the ladder. If nothing happens real soon, then I should definitely make the move.

6. Better ME
- I have been playing it safe. It is about time to come out of my shell.

7. SAVE SAVE SAVE
- I am a thrifty person. I should learn when to spend and not get carried away. I should track my income and expenses.

Aja 2k10!

4th Year

Today marks the first day of another work week. It also commemorates my 4th year of service in this corporation. Never did it enter my mind I would last this long. When I started I told myself once my bond is finish I will transfer.

Now I ask myself, what am I still doing here?
What have I gained from this slavery I am in?
Is it still worth the punishment?
How long am I willing to endure this?
Do I enjoy what I do?
Do I find some sense of fulfillment at the end of the day?
Or is it time for me to try a different adventure?

Isip-isip.

On Laughter

If you do not know me, I bet your first impression of me is that I am mataray. Due to that, I do not have many real friends. I usually do not fit in so I guess that urged me to be a jokester which is in direct contrast to my taray expression. Laughter breaks the ice. Laughter makes it easier to get in with a group.

I like to portray that I do not take anything seriously that I cannot laugh about afterward. I have this thinking, “ang pikon ay talo”. If I could joke and laugh about anything and everything, I will fit somewhere eventually. Once I am accepted that is when I will have the chance to show my alter ego after they have eased up and laughed at me.

Laughter is truly amazing. Its keeps you younger and it brings down walls a bit to let the real person come out. As they say, Laughter is the best medicine. :)

On Wishing

People never seem to be contented with what they have. People always want something they do not currently have. People strive to improve themselves to be better individuals. I assume each individual would love to rub a magical lamp and gain three wishes.

Personally I yearn to travel. In almost 4 years of slavery, I never had the chance to work outside of the country. I have been assigned onsite, but just around the corner. Whenever an onshore opportunity comes around, my ears rings. At least it would be hitting two birds with one stone --- work and "play".

I just had interview for onshore work. The specifics are not laid out yet, but it would be a long term assignment. Now I am confused, is this really what I want? Is it worth it to change policies? In the long run, would I benefit?

Tsk tsk.. I should be careful for what I wish for cause it just might be a reality.
