Pacquiao vs Morales - Bad Effect

November 18th, 2006

Images_1  Again and again, Pacquiao fights prove to be bad for our business. It is 11:30am, the fastfood is supposed to be streaming with people that need to fill their tummies. But no! it is literally empty except for a trickle of people taking out their favorite food in the counter. Even my hubby isn’t here with me today. Just got a text from him asking me to take out some food for lunch.

You better be good today Manny, or you owe me today’s sales worth.

Accident with a Cock

November 9th, 2006

avoiding a cock…a shuttle cock is difficult especially when it comes Photo0029zooming from right behind you, say 2 meters away and targeting your ear. suddenly, i’ve gone deaf. for a second there, i thought my eardrum would bleed and i was waiting for blood to ooze from my right ear! i was scared to death, almost threw a crying fit (hehehe - brat!). only to find people around me acting nonchalantly to what had just happened. i was almost deaf and they were like "oh it’s nothing…been there…" i was cool though but not well yet. still can’t hear from my left ear but since i was reassured that this is just a minor injury, i’m okay. after all, i’ve been hit in the mouth by my teammate’s racket and nothing happened. if there had been any damage to my teeth, i would have had a lifetime free service from my dentist teammate. yooohooo! i smell braces…

my hair is still sweaty from the match a while ago.  my eyes are still irritated with my contact lenses going up and down my eyeball. my body still sore. the impact of the cock on my ear is still strong. but since my fingers and my brains are okay, i’m blogging to get my mind off the discomforts. losing a tooth or my sense of hearing for just a point in a badminton match isn’t worth it. i really don’t think it is. but duh! accidents do happen and nobody wants it, right? is this what people say "playing sport" is? well, it must be =) i am so sporty!!! hehehehe

I WON THE LOTTERY!!!!

November 7th, 2006

Well, almost! I got 4 out of the 6 numbers that came out in the Super Mega Over Lotto. What a shame! Got 6 instead of 8, 16 instead 22. Goodbye 4 million but oh hello 500 pesos! Lucky me, it was only on my 5th try that I won. It’s not for me yet…but I know my time will come.

Maybe that’s what lotteries and gamblings do…give hope to people…that one day it’s gonna be their turn to be the "lucky ones" (ang ganda kooooh, feel na feel ang long hair kooooh). But it is never an excuse to get hooked. Everything excessive is definitely bad.

PROCRASTINATING

November 3rd, 2006

…..that’s what I’ve been doing these past few days…I mean weeks…oh alright, months! Suddenly I lost all the motivation I’ve mustered during my “younger” years. Except for my little Erika and issued checks that need to be funded, it seems like I could now do away with the things that were relatively important in the past.  They all seem trivial now.


When I was still a corporate slave, time was a rare commodity. It had always been about beating the deadline for my deliverables, interviewing, employing a number of people for the week. It had always been a race with time and it was that particular race that I seldom win. I find myself extending 2-3 more hours after office only to tend to my paper works. It was a very exhausting routine. Eventually, I was burned out. I knew I needed a loooong break.

Almost 2 years after, after marrying and giving birth, I find myself still in “vacation mode.” Sure, I spend 3-5 hours in our business, play badminton and take care of my little girl but I feel like there’s still a lot missing. I have the greatest suspicion I lost my drive. Did I mention I enrolled in Law School only to quit 2 weeks after? Boy, did I let my parents down…

What the heck is happening to me? I need direction! I need to set my goal again. The thing is, I have a lot. And I honestly don’t know where to start. =( I really wanted to finish Law school, want to attend culinary arts school, travel, build our own house, redecorate our bedroom, teach, etc etc.

I have started some projects too: cross stitch, scrapbooking, sorted my stuff for a garage sale, even bought books to read, plan for the fastfood’s renovation->this needs a lot of savings as I have learned from my architect friend. But I haven’t finished a single thing. Although I am glad I was able to purchase a car through a car loan and started paying for my insurance – budgeting in the beginning proves to be a challenge, considering I have been quite a spender when I wasn’t married yet – and I still have to contribute to my parent’s car loan too. It was a commitment I cannot simply neglect). Anyway, this kind of challenge is very welcome in my boring life.

I am starting to think that the only thing I’m good at right now is planning and saving up for our little girl’s future! This isn’t the essence of a woman! Hahahaha! At least, it’s not the only thing a mother should do…di ba?

Gosh! I need to be more proactive. And this weight isn’t helping….

FYI: This blog had been half-finished since August and I only had it posted now! I am soooooo procrastinating.
