FIRST DAY OF THE YEAR


I wish for tears that results from abundant happiness and no longer because of longingness
I pray for good health
and strength

2011
My heart was captivated by someone special  (not a boyfriend) that I consider the greatest love of my life. He never missed a day to call or text me, He was not afraid to tell everyone that he adores me, He fought for me when my teacher made a mistake in my grade, He made me laugh all the time, He taught me about Buddhism and I shared to him about Catholic Religion, with that I learned to respect other beliefs and culture, however,  he has to leave for a job offer and I had to accept that he is just so smart to work here and that there will be a lot of job offers for him since he tops the class and sadly I also accepted the fact that I am not gonna be part of his future.
Everyday I think of him wishing he does the same till I am no longer blinded by the truth that he will comeback for me and those princes coming back for his love of his life only happens in fairytales and not in reality.

Farewell my friend.

I wish you love, happiness and contentment in life.
You will always be remembered and our friendship will be forever treasured.
And if we meet again by fate my old friend I hope there will be a lot of stories from your priceless adventures.

2012

THANK YOU 2012, HELLO 2013 =)

Before the clock ticks to 12:00 a.m. I would like to remember the things that made me happy this year. 2012 was filled with a lot of laughs less tears and I owe it all to my friends who despite of their busy schedule made time to be with me, My family who accepted me for who I am and who I'm not, My yaya who I love so much that I can't imagine living without.

To all the people that surrounds me and I care I heartily pray to God that he will protect you and bless you more.

Here are the highlights of my 2012

May 2012 - Together with my father, aunt, uncle, brother and cousins we went to Pangasinan to attend the vow of my aunt who entered the nunnery 10 years ago. We also visited Baguio who at that time was colder compared to my last visit years ago and Vigan, my dream vacation place :)

Baluarte 
Vigan

July 2012 - My Birthday month wooot woot! Had a mini celebration with my officemates then a week after I went to Manila again with my best friend Normel Tan. We watched the Nikki Minaj live in concert at MOA Arena.

ONE MORE TRY - A MUST SEE MOVIE =)


 ONE MORE TRY
Metro Manila Film Festival


The movie One More Try is an official entry for the Metro Manila Film Festival. Watching its trailer again and again I was convinced to spare some penny for it and invited my friends to watch it with me. The movie has a unique plot and you will really find it hard to conclude which of the leading actresses acts the best as they were equally giving their best shot for the movie. 

After watching the movie my friend and I left the movie house with teary eyes and rushing looking for the comfort room to check if our eyes are really that worst. We also have a discussion with my friends which among Jack (Angelica) or Grace (Angel) was right but then there's no right or wrong for a wife who loves her husband so much and for a mother who is willing to do anything for her child.
The soundtrack Without You really is the reason tears start falling in my eyes. No Joke!! If you will ask the other moviegoers you will know that the music really did make an impact of the movie. It was really moving and its melodramatic effect can really trigger you to get your prepared tissue in your bag.
I don't want to spoil you with the exact details of the movie 
I want you yo watch it yourself :)
To end this post here's the movie's official sound track

BLESSED IN SOME WAYS





My Highschool Best Friends 
@ La Maison Ayala Terraces


While talking random topics in the office with my friends we came across the topic "BOYS" and I said "Wala man jud kuy swerte ana puro ko dimalas when it comes to them" and she said "Yan you are still the luckiest girl I know even if you don't have a boyfriend, Every girl gets jealous of how you keep your friends in your arms and how you and your siblings interact its really extraordinary" Na speechless ko. HAHAHAHA :D

RIGHT AFTER CHRISTMAS DAY







The ambience in the office was different, less noise, less girls in the bathroom, less people lining up for water in the pantry. Half of the population were enjoying their long Christmas Break well good for them HAHAHA but for me? I spent the day after Christmas in the office with my office mates.

 December 26,2012, Wednesday Pag-ASA declared Cebu under signal number 2. Do you know what that means? That means it's a mandatory to eat a hot soup on your lunch break HAHAHAHA. My office mates decided to go to Ekit's Pocherohan but then we were sad when we learned that they were closed for that day.  After roaming within the Mabolo area we then decided to eat pungko2x near Sampaguita Suites. 


I WANT TO TRY STREET PHOTOGRAPHY... BADLY!!!

To end my post here's a video of Bruno Mar's When I was your man.. I super love the lyrics and the melody of the song.. This is for all the boys who took their girls for granted. Sometimes there's nothing you can do but wish that they will be treated the way you should have. Tsk2x!!!

ACCENTURE BEST DANCE CREW




Our concept for the presentation was just "Plainly fun" we followed Kenny's suggestion to add a folk dance in our presentation and of course the very famous Oppa Gangnam Style but then we were saddened to receive an email to asked us to refrain from using that song so we end up dancing the Oppa Gangnam Style Dance Steps in our Manglalatik soundtrack HAHAHA..

Exactly one week before the Accenture PCS Christmas Party, Our team makes sure to practice in the parking area 30 minutes everyday for 1 week and practiced 1 hour and 30 minutes every night 2 days before the competition. We noticed that we are still not synchronized so on the day of the competition we planned to practice. At first inviting our Senior Manager in Accenture was just a joke from our Team leader. One of the guidelines of the competition was to have one team leader in the crew. When we invited our team leader to be part of the dance he told us "Ayaw lang ako si Franz lang". My friend John then said "sige ha ako email-an" John then asked me to compose the mail and he send it to him without second thoughts. He didn't replied that day so we thought he already declined the invitation 2 days after that he finally said Yes!! Hurrayyyyy... Now the problem is will Franz be okay if we told him he will dance the Manglalatik? 

December 13,2012, Thursday 4:30 p.m.  Day One for Franz to practice and in all honesty he can easily get the steps and he didn't backed out when he knew he will be part of the folk dance dancers. When he mastered the Manglalatik steps we told him "Mau nato Franz" He then replies to us "Huh? Mao ratu?" So we said to him "Nahan paka? Sige apil ka sa Ma boy" Ma boy is a KPop with sexy dance steps.

Our Secret Practice Place
Yul - Our Team Leader who made sure we practiced HAHAHA
Kenny the over-all-in-charge of the team

2nd Problem - December 14, 2012 , Friday - We didn't follow the guidelines about to have a team leader in the crew. We might get disqualified from the competition, Praise God Maylene, a team leader didn't hesitate to say NO even if it's on short notice imagine the competition will be that day after.

Now this time arms forward RAISE!!

THANKS FOR THIS EXPERIENCE

I end my post with Ma Boy the Korean song and if you have time why not follow the dance steps? Surely you will have fun. Trust me :)

Take me back to December




Christmas season is all around us. Since the start of December I've been surrounded with full calendar parties and reunions. Here are some photos of my December activities, I have to summarize them in one post since they are all backlogs and making a post one by one would mean very late update and one meaningless post.

1.) GDN Technology Christmas Party - Held at out office at E bloc2 IT Park. The theme of our Christmas Party was all around the world so each workforce should represent one region and we were asked to represent the Americas consists of the North America and South America. We picked 3 states in Americas and that's New York, California and Mexico. We made our own version of Central Park, Walk of Fame. Hollywood Sign and of course the celebrities should be present like the famous Manilyn Monroe, Micheal Jackson, Johnny Depp, Jennifer Aniston not to mention I was asked to be Christina Aguilera, Don't React! I know I'm far away or not even close to her but it was actually fun impersonating her. It was a contest so we gave all that we can to bring the prize however we lose a good fight! HAHAHA..


CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW


STATUE OF LIBERTY


Welcome to Mexico (MEHICO)

2.) PCS CHRISTMAS PARTY- Held at Marriott Hotel the theme was HOMECOMING so we were asked to wear our perspective theme. Our team picked the NERDS so we were obliged to wear what the nerds usually wear in a daily basis. It was fun looking for the costume and the nerdy glasses really worked for me though I look like 10 years older booooooo!!! That's plainly the reason why I don't wear my glasses and opt to suffer my bad eyesight. I know deeply that I look like a manang wearing them and envy those who look cute with glasses on.

Here's my peg for that night I'm with my glasses to achieve the nerdy look but what I wore here is my costume for the Search for Accenture's Best Dance Crew

with my friend Cha :)
THE NERDS PICTORIAL
THE SOCIALITES
THE EMO

The highlight of the event for me was the Search for Accenture Best Dance Crew were in I was one of the 14 to represent my team. We practiced less compared to the other teams since we were bombarded with other tasks in between but yet on the day of the event we crammed like hell and perfected the dance steps and guess what?? We brought home the bacon :)
