Hooray, hooray!
11/09 - bought the PC
11/11 - bought the monitor
11/14 - applied for DSL
11/19 - got the DSL installed
Been searching for reviews for PLDT, Smart and Globe to help me decide which one to apply for so I can have internet connection at home. Since we already have a PLDT landline, I decided to just stick with PLDT, and great thing I did because service wast fast - had the modem installed 5 days after application! yey!
Now I can update this blog more frequently (I hope, hehe)!

Been wanting to go to some great getaway place with my bf and finally we had the chance, also to celebrate our 3rd monthsary! Yehey!
We tagged along my mom so she can experience "paglalaboy" too.
Woke up around 1:30 in the morning so we can start early and be at balinatawak by around 3. Add to the excitement the fact that this was our first time to travel (malayuan) together, with only theoretical knowledge (thanks to maps and direction form waypoints.ph) on how to go there.

Driving that early sure was a breeze - no cars to wrestle the roads with. The thing that slowed us down was the fact that we weren't familiar with the roads so we had to be extra careful with the road signs so we wouldn't get lost. But we did, ironically, when we were nearing pundaquit, the drop off point to the famed Anawangin Cove.
We arrived at Pundaquit beach around 7 am. Sadly, the rechargeable batteries we brought weren't functioning as they should. so we decided to buy batteries at the last minutes. And since no alkaline batteries were available, we had to settle for the regular ones.

Before heading to Anawangin, we first visited the Capones Island, home of the lighthouse. No, we were not able to go to the lighthouse, we owere only able to take a picture of it from a distance.
On the way to the Cove, we couldn't help being amazed by the wonderful mountains welcoming us. God really is the Great Artist!
(To be continued..)

Ranting Monday, March 09, 2009 |
Yes I will write about my ranting now so that I can let it go. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! Kaya pala inimbento ang stress ball, para pag gigil na gigil ka na e kesa ano pang destructive act ang gawin mo e ibuhos mo na lang lahat sa kawawang (but super squeeze-absorbent) bolang iyon. Special thanks to Ms. Marion for this gift nung pasko. Ngayon ko lang siya actually nagamit, come to think of it.
What am I ranting about? Basta. Work-related which I choose not to disclose for the reason na baka makasira ako ng tao, at hindi yun tama. Pero man, grabe, sa pagkakaalam ko pasensiyoso kong tao, as in. Parang kaya ko pa nga ipagyabang yun. But no, nasagad ngayon. Last week pa kasi ito. Add the fact that right now, I'm at my lowest in terms of liking this job of mine. Kung bakit naman may bond kasi. At bakit nga ba????? Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...
Hayyy, I can in all honesty say that I've reached the point of kawalang gana. Sana bumilis na ang oras para uwian na....

We just had our midnight prayer meeting last Sunday, but that's not what I'm writing about - well not just yet. So there, we were having the second meditation part (I think, I don't remember quite clearly. Anyway..) when Jai approached me to ask if I can write an article about the prayer meeting for Ripples (our church's official newsletter). She said Lew "suggested" that I write about it since I know the flow of the program. He even counted the number of attendees: 60, an info he said I'd be needing in writing the article. So, did I have any choice? Hahahaha. Actually, I said yes because I didn't think I'd be writing a NEWS article.. I thought then I'd be writing about it just like this, informally, just like blogging.
Fast forward to last night. We went to Kuya Mar's house to visit Nanay Benita and have fellowship with them. After the "program proper" Kuya Mar asked me if I could write an article about the Thanksgiving Concert we had the other Sunday. And again I found myself saying yes.
I can't really remember the last time I wrote a News article, or if I ever wrote one at all!
(Oh I remember now, just this year for our company's newsletter.. Nyak.) Hahahahaha. And I'm not really fond of writing - you know, the REAL writing, those formal need-to-be-published articles, memos and all that. What I do enjoy is doodling thoughts (a.k.a. blogging), not having to mind the sentence construction, flow of thoughts, coherence of ideas, achuchuchu. And considering the chaotic state of mind that I have when it comes to actually speaking out what's inside it, I prefer writing down my thoughts than having to explain them orally. Hence my short description of this dear blog of mine. Hehehe.
See, I just finished another doodle! Hahahahahaha!
