hope...

A lot can still happen in two days... If others can do it in one day, then I still have twice the chance to do it.

Thank you God, for IT IS DONE!!!

still alive and mushy as ever

After a week of hiatus, here I am back to documenting the bits and pieces of my life that I think worth telling the whole wide world about. Rather, those measly few who spare my rantings a few moments of their time to read. Whatever.

I just finished chatting with Franco. Call me weird but I found him especially cute, adorable and like-a-teddy-bear-huggable tonight even if he was frowning half the time in futile hopes of intimidating me into submission. Haha. Just made me miss him more. Tsk. The effect that guy has on me is phenomenal, I swear. Hands down. That I could even dare sound this sickeningly mushy about him in a public blog is a measure of his power over me. Beat that, huh?

Now before I start making the few readers I have barf at my lovesickness, I have a rather important if delayed news: I just quit my job last week. Long story. Or maybe not. Whatever. The bottomline is I got another memo for a fault which others make but do not ever get memos for, and instead of giving the requisite explanation within twenty-four hours why I shouldn't be terminated, I instead filed my resignation letter. That's that. And I never looked back.

So right now I'm doing my Nu Skin/Pharmanex business fulltime. While waiting for another job, that is. Although I must say I am quite enjoying my freedom right now. Hmmm...

bootcamp!

One word: INCREDIBLE!!!

how professional...

Up to now I still don't know if I should laugh or feel insulted. I mean, I took the exam. I'd like to think I passed since they called me back for an interview. The interview went well. But only after all that did the HR drop the bomb--that the position I was applying for had no vacancy. Indefinitely. WTF?

So I'm taking another exam or two next week for the available positions--both of which don't really appeal to me as much as the position I was originally applying for--even though the HR said I wouldn't need another interview. Weird.

But the weirder thing is I still wanna work there. Sucker.

and i'm actually in love with this guy... ^_^

Franco is possibly the most exasperating person I've ever met in my entire life--and believe me, I've met A LOT.

We almost fought because of his webcam, of all things [this is all your fault, Patchi! haha]. Long story. But the bottomline is he finally relented and used his webcam. The catch? He was wearing a pillow over his head with another pillow covering the rest of his face. As in. He wouldn't show me his face at all, saying someone might write his name on the Death Note. As if I don't know what he looks like underneath all those pillows. Geez.

I alternated between amusement and annoyance throughout our conversation, what with the pillows slipping down every other second and him scrambling to catch them and hold them in place even as he types his replies to my messages. But to his credit, I was laughing half the time at his antics. Haha. What a guy.

No, I won't even ask if those are actions of a normal person. But that's because I've long ago let go of my notions of "normalcy" in people, myself in particular. Quirks are quirks and his just makes him all the more adorable, pardon the mushy tone. Haha.

Anywho, he finally relented in the end and showed me his face--and the mess that is his long hair. Not that I'm anyone to speak regarding the messy hair, but that's not the point. I knew his hair was long, but I didn't know it was already that long. As in can-be-tied-back-in-a-ponytail long. Who would have thought?

Life really never does cease to amaze me. ^_^

ayaw ko maging palaboy

Darn. Looking for a new place to stay is turning out to be harder than I first thought it would be. I have to consider the rental first and foremost [preferably less than 10k and good for 4 persons], and of course, the location [it has to be somewhere between Makati and Eastwood City]. And we need to move in by this Sunday if possible. Seriously.

Anyone who knows of such a place, please please PLEASE contact me ASAP.

me, an analytical thinker?

Analytical Thinker (AT)
(Just visiting? Take the free personality test and determine your iPersonic type!)

Analytical Thinkers are reserved, quiet persons. They like to get to the bottom of things - curiosity is one of their strongest motives. They want to know what holds the world together deep down inside. They do not really need much more to be happy because they are modest persons. Many mathematicians, philosophers and scientists belong to this type. Analytical Thinkers loathe contradictions and illogicalness; with their sharp intellect, they quickly and comprehensively grasp patterns, principles and structures. They are particularly interested in the fundamental nature of things and theoretical findings; for them, it is not necessarily a question of translating these into practical acts or in sharing their considerations with others. Analytical Thinkers like to work alone; their ability to concentrate is more marked than that of all other personality types. They are open for and interested in new information.

Analytical Thinkers have little interest in everyday concerns - they are always a little like an “absent-minded professor” whose home and workplace are chaotic and who only concerns himself with banalities such as bodily needs when it becomes absolutely unavoidable. The acknowledgement of their work by others does not play a great role for them; in general,they are quite independent of social relationships and very self-reliant. Analytical Thinkers therefore often give others the impression that they are arrogant or snobby - especially because they do not hesitate to speak their mind with their often harsh (even if justified) criticism and their imperturbable self-confidence. Incompetent contemporaries do not have it easy with them. But whoever succeeds in winning their respect and interest has a witty and very intelligent person to talk to. A partner who amazes one with his excellent powers of observation and his very dry humour.

It takes some time before Analytical Thinkers make friends, but then they are mostly friends for life. They only need very few people around them. Their most important ability is to be a match for them and thus give them inspiration. Constant social obligations quickly get on their nerves; they need a lot of time alone and often withdraw from others. Their partner must respect this and understand that this is not due to the lack of affection. Once they have decided in favour of a person, Analytical Thinkers are loyal and reliable partners. However, one cannot expect romance and effusive expressions of feelings from them and they will definitely forget their wedding anniversary. But they are always up to a night spent with stimulating discussions and a good glass of wine!

a new blister. awts.

Right now I am so tired I am all but about to topple over from where I'm sitting. Good thing I'm sitting on my bunk. Haha.

I got a new blister on my left ankle, thanks to my leather Mary Janes. Darn. Much as I love the darn thing, it's just too harsh on my sensitive peds, even if worn for just a short time. Even the adhesive cushions I attached did not prevent the painful blistering. Awww. Good thing I'm wearing Chucks tomorrow. Thank God for small favors.

too damn far away

I miss him. BIG TIME. Our conversation last night just sharpened the pangs of longing I feel for him. Awww.

Up to now I still feel amazed and damn proud myself for being able to hold on this long. Patience never was one of my strong points and I have the attention span of a hyperactive five-year-old yet here I am still in a healthy long-distance relationship. Who would have thought?

Good, old L-O-V-E does that to you, I guess. Turns your world upside down, that is. Although that is hardly news anyway. That's just the way it is. There can be no other.

What I wouldn't give to just have him here beside me..

>.<

okay, so i look the part... big deal

pampering the biggest organ in the body

After a rather stressful day, was I ever so thankful to In for giving me a facial to cheer me up. Err, was I looking that haggard? Whatever. But it did cheer me up, aside from giving my face a clean, scrubbed glow. Whee!

Since I was still feeling pretty high from that when I got home, I decided I might as well go all the way pampering myself before going to bed. So I took a nice cold shower, exfoliated my skin with the Liquid Body Lufra and used Nu Skin Body Bar for the first time. God, it smells sooooo good. I just love its refreshing grapefruit scent. And oh yeah, my skin felt all nice and soft afterward. Heehee.

Okay, so I'm getting a feel for things I never even considered before. Skincare, anyone? I guess I'm making up for things I missed out on before due to my stubborn pride as a super low-maintenance, basta na tao kind of girl. Oh well. Never too late to start taking care of my little old self.

deception

Okay, so I know that what I did was wrong. Very wrong in fact. And yeah, I do have guilt feelings about it. But I just did it to keep from further digging my own grave. Can't really make things even worse for my situation here in the office.

Darn. This thing is starting to turn me into a monster myself. Gotta stop thinking about this if I am to retain even a modicum of decency.

starting over

With my impending doom at the company, I am already busy looking for a new job--with higher pay. And oh yeah, a new place to live too--with lower rent. The way things are going, I'll probably be starting from scratch. Oh well. Never too late to learn.
