A House of My Own

Just last week my friend Jon and I was discussing about having a house of our own. He actually share my dream of getting a house on a subdivision and of course we want to be neighbors! I want a house in a subdivision on a hill and I want it near my workplace as well. I dream of having a 3 bedroom house with a garage storage , a carport and a veranda. How I wish we could find a nice location for the house and a reliable agent as well. Hopefully I could turn this dream into a reality within the year.

First Day of the Rest of My Life

I've made a very crucial decision today and I know it would change everything in my life. I've decided to lose weight. I made a promise to myself that this 2009 - I'll gonna do everything to revive back who I was 5 years ago. I want to get back everything I lost and lose everything I gained. I hope and pray I would be a different person a year from now. I want a more confident, more beautiful and a happier Myles and I would do everything to be what I want to be. I've weigh myself today and I can't believe my eyes...a whooping 80 kilos (approx. 176 lbs) showed up on the scale. I almost cried. I can't believe how I taken my body for granted. How I abused myself. How I lost self control. I promise I would be different from now on. I know I still have so much to do and I don't want to die young because of some sickness associated with obesity. I must act now and work on my diet plan so I hurriedly got my ipod and did some aerobics. I also drunk a slimming tea and would try drinking fitrum later. I can't believe how I abused myself and I hope losing weight would be easier for me this time.

Happy Birthday Best Friend!

If my best friend is alive...she would be celebrating her 29th birthday today. It's so sad that she passed away 4 years ago. I still think of her once in a while...I miss her laughter, how she laugh on even the corniest joke I make. I miss her text invitations asking us, her barkada, to come and join her on some special occasions such as her birthday, her siblings birthday, their town fiesta etc. I miss everything about her. Life is too short indeed. If I only knew I only have limited time to spend with her...If I only knew I won't be able to grow old with her...If I only knew she would leave too soon... but it's too late.she is perfectly okey. I hope she would save a room next to her so we could still make "chicka" when the time when I need to join her in heaven. I can imagine where she is currently residing right now.. a very peaceful, green community surrounded by water just like what shows on the picture.



Anyways, our shift is light. It's a good thing they did'nt have me reskilled to HN split so since I am still on DSL - our avail time is longer, max of 30 mins. I hope the que would still be like this next week. It's my last day this week and tomorrow is my rest day! Finally! Coached called for a meeting and discussed SOPAS - which stands for "State of the Program Address" - he discussed our goals...where we stand in the call center industry, how we performed last year and what we would expect for the coming year. The meeting went well until we felt a commotion as Mamu, my gay friend started to share some concerns about how coach lead the team. He started saying he does'nt feel appreciated but instead hears negative remarks on event the littlest flaws he made. Everyone is tense as Mamu continue to show dissapproval on what our coach is saying and honestly...I feel for both of them. I feel Mamu's dissappointment as he constantly pass his scorecard and yet TL never commended him. I feel TL's situation as I know he was caught off

My New Years Resolution

I've been super duper busy nowadays catching up on online opps and doing extra curricular activities with my wonderful superfriends. I am so happy I've found them... I don't know how this all started but our friendship is not like the friendship I had with others. I really cherish and appreciate every single moment I am with them as I really enjoy having them around. No dull moment and we do whatever things come into our minds. Come what may, ika nga. The only thing we can't do is not to enjoy. Well I'm just so blessed with my new found friends and they are the greatest blessing I received last year. True and Genuine friendship.

Anyways, I am posting my new year's resolution and I hope I can achieve at least half of these.

First, TO LOSE THESE EXTRA 40 LBS I have. I know the hardest step is always the first and I am willing to take the first step this January 31st. I, with my friends, would enroll in a gym just infront of our building which is the Holiday Inn. The gym is called Red Corner. They do offer a very good package which includes unlimited use of the gym, a pool and a sauna. We intend to go to the gym everyday so I hope losing these extra weight would be a lot easier than I thought.

Second, concentrate on my online job. Last quarter was the worst. I was'nt able to concentrate on my online work because I am sooo busy doing extra curicular activities with my wonderful friends. We would normally go out after shift after we've been reskilled to DSL que. Our schedule was now fixed @ 5am to 2pm so we do have the whole afternoon to bond. I don't regret losing those opps as I was able to discover true friendship. And since I've realized that I could also balance my time with my friends as well as with my online job - I might as well do both at the same time.

Third, put up my own little business. I intend to resign on the next three years. I would just wait till I get my retirement plan and I would definitely just opt to work at home. I intend to get the offer to work as a part time English Tutor to Korean kids so I could also develop the skills and maybe use that as a part time job once I decided to quit working and just work at home. There are a lot of opportunities out there that would only require you to have a reliable internet connection and a decent English - so I think I would just opt for that. I believe that I was born a
businesswoman and I would pursue to be one.

Fourth, I would want to get a housing loan through Pag-Ibig this year. I, with my better half, wants to get a small house near our place in Montalban Rizal. My friend, Jonjon, also wants to get one so I would ask him to try joining one of their free trips next weekend.

Fifth, to save P10,000 monthly out of my salary. Apart from my online income, I also want to also save from my montly salary. I want to retire after 3 years with at least half a million peso on hand through savings from my income.

Last but not the least, I want to go back and be active in the Church of God. I was'nt able to
serve God for the last four years. I really miss Church service. I know I need to do something about it and I want to start next Sunday. I'll keep you updated if I was able to find a Church near our place here in Project 8.

That's about it. I hope I can have the courage and the will to do all of these six New Year's Resolution I have. I admit, It would be a GREAT challenge but I know through God's grace...I am able to have the strenght to turn all of these to reality. I pray that this year would be a year of abundant blessings to all of us and I hope that God's will be done on our lives.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Happy new year to all of you guys! Indeed 2008 has been a great year for me. I received sooo many blessings last year including our house, our health, our finances and most of all I was able to meet good friends. I spent Christmas with my good friends Melai, Perl and my sisterette Mamu. We agreed to celebrate Christmas at our house since their families are all in the province and they don't have families here in Manila. The plan was already furnished, we will all go to our place after shift with Dianne when Melai suddenly disappeared. We went to Robinsons hoping she would follow us there but she was nowhere to be found. I texted and even called her to know where she is but the phone was off. Nobody wants to go back to the office to check if Melai is still around so I volunteered. I hurriedly went back to the office, carefully checking each floor but no shadow of Melai was found. I gave up. Then we suddenly received a text message from her saying she cant come because of an important matter that she needs to address before the day ends. Honestly I was hurt. Why would she do such a foolish act? Leading us on...making us
