A Christmas Prayer

Christmas is just around the corner without me realizing it...and after that, another year will start. Upon reflecting on what transpired with my life last year, I can say that it's still a great one for me. Imagine, this year I was able to live in my own house! There are a lot of firsts experiences...first time to visit an OB, first time to get a loan of more than P30,000...first time to visit a spa, first time to have the opportunity to decide for myself. For a fact I know that this hasn't been the greatest but I'm getting there. There are a lot of things I want to improve in my life but I know I can't do this alone. God needs to walk me through the entire process. This 2013, my prayer is to be able to share God's love to other people. May other people know that I am a Christian and that Jesus lives in me so they would be inspired to follow Gods path as well. Financial wise, I pray that God would increase my territory and bless me financially so I can also be a blessing to others. I pray that I would be physically healthy and fit. Need to trim down for health purposes and lose 50 pounds altogether. Also want to have a close relationship with my family. To be able to see them at least once a month. Widen my horizon and meet new friends. Need to get out of my box and not be afraid not to know what would happen and not be in control. Third, to be able to improve my knowledge and to earn more from it. Fourth, need to follow my dreams and start doing what I love. Fourth, be able to work on my blogs and make sure I update it regularly. Need to widen my vocabulary so I can fully express myself. Lord, in your feet I lay down my plans and my dreams...Your will be done in my life. Amen.

Brown Out!

It’s my restday today! Yehey! I woke up at around 4am in a breezy Wednesday morning. I guess there’s a typhoon because of the over gloomy weather with strong winds and heavy rainfall. Good thing I don’t have to go to the office tonight so I could relax and do things I wanna do for a long time now…do nothing LOL. I spent the day watching Batman Return, Keith Ledger’s last movie. We intend to watch the first and second part of The Batman Trilogy so I could understand the new release which is The Dark Knight Rises. After our DVD marathon, my hubby cooked fried chicken, sinangag and fried egg for our breakfast with matching hot coffee. It’s heaven! Everything is running smoothly until I heard a knock on the door. It’s my uncle who is living in the same subdivision also. I don’t know why but I really don’t want anyone to always go to my house unadvised. I feel I’m being deprived of my privacy whenever someone shows up without an appointment. Well, he is asking for my help because his grandson already graduated his college and would want to get a job really soon. I told him that the only job I could refer him to is a Call Center job. He said he would ask his grandson to drop by later this afternoon so we could talk about it. Well, I really hope he could pass the examinations and the interviews because I really don’t have the power to get him the job unless he passed the initial exams and interviews. I’ll talk to him later.

The Last Come Back?

It’s been a while since I last posted my last blog entry. It’s been a wonderful yet rough 6 months. Just to give you a brief summary of what happened…. I’m already residing in Montalban Rizal. Yes, I already got my own house. Uhm, well, technically it’s not really mine because I got a loan to avail of it through Pag-ibig but at least I don’t get to rent anymore. I’t s mine and it’s the greatest blessing I’ve got so far this year. Life here is so simple. I feel at ease. I don’t feel the pressure of the fast changing world. Here you can breath fresh air, you can relax, sleep the whole day.  Whenever I’m here… it feels like I don’t want to leave anymore. This house is indeed God’s present to me…I don’t know if I deserve it…I haven’t done much in my life worth getting such a huge gift…but He gave it to me anyway. And because of that, I now understand the meaning of God’s love… a free gift…

I know I’ve written about getting back on blogging and how I want to be a successful blogger. I thought I would retire writing articles and getting a lot of money through it. Because I haven’t done this for quite sometime now, I don’t know how to start. I don’t know if my dream of getting rich because of my blogs would still come true, but I am taking it slow. I really need money to pay for the house and I know that I can’t work in a Call Center my whole life. Hope that through this first step, I can make it to the top. 

Jennifer Hudson's tweet to Jessica Sanchez

It's really overwhelming for someone to receive a tweet especially from a well known singer such as Jennifer Hudson. That might be what Jessica Sanchez felt when she received a tweet from Jennifer Hudson. When Jessica Sanchez took the stage and perform the Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" - she got a cheer from the famous Jennifer Hudson. She then tweeted "Yes Jessica! That's it!" Jessica learned about it and had an emotional reaction.

"Me and my uncle were in the same room when we saw the Tweet and we were like, crying and freaking out," Jessica told AccessHollywood.com's Laura Saltman, backstage after last night's show. "She's one of my idols. It's crazy." When asked why she chose the song "I will always love you" by Whitney Houston, she answered, "I was very confident of my choice at first because I was like, 'Everyone knows this song, it'll go good, whatever. I've been singing this song my whole life,'""But then I started realizing it's like one of the biggest songs.... But it really did pay off. I'm really happy." As for the standing ovation from the audience, Jessica said she was so caught up in the moment she didn't really notice what was going on. "I didn't see it coming -everybody did amazing tonight," she said. "I'm so grateful and I'm just so happy and I'm just living in the moment right now."

As a Filipina, I'm was so proud about what our kababayan has reached. Thinking about what Jennifer Hudson tweeted Jessica Sanchez gives me the chills.

Go Pinay! Go Jessica Sanchez!

My 32nd Birthday Celebration

Last Saturday, right after my shift...me and hubby headed to Montalban to celebrate my birthday and to also take a glimpse of our new home. I took a time off from work so we could celebrate it the day after which is a Sunday. The original plan was to go to Church first and then check on the house but the plan changed and we just strolled around the village at around 6am. As what we previously do, we stroll around Villa Anna Maria, a subdivision close to where my mom lives and a village where my cousin's house now stands. Then at around 11 am, I along with the whole gang headed to Robinsons Montalban and ate lunch at Jollibee. It's my little nephew Empoy's favorite hang out and we ordered him Chicken Joy and Ice Cream. It's nice to see him smile and having fun with me and my mom. Rarely did my brother Elmer allows him to mingle with us for 

A Birthday Prayer

Today is my 32nd birthday! Thank you Lord for letting me live this long. I have not been a good daughter to you Lord but I hope you still hold on to me. I have been so selfish and have only thought of myself. Jesus, thanks for all the blessings you've showered me. Especially on my birthday, in five hours...I will be calling up Pag-ibig fund to know the status of my PAGIBIG HOUSING LOAN APPLICATION. Hopefully they approve my P850k housing loan application so I can already pay my downpayment and finally move in this March. Here's the house I've been dreaming of and hopefully will be my home next month. I really feel that 2012 is my year, I would do my best to fix my life and I intend to glorify God with a new me. Amen

Welcome 2012!

Happy New Year Everyone! Time flies so fast, in about a month and a half...another year would be added in my age as I will soon celebrate my 32nd birthday. Wow! I still can't believe it. Most of the girls my age already have their own families, have a husband and at least one child. But here I am, still single with no plans of getting married anytime soon nor have a child. I don't know if I just don't feel the urge of having a family of my own or I just don't have goals in my life. Sure, I wan't to be married soon but as of this point in my life, I don't feel it yet. I guess there are so many things in my life right now that I need to fix first before planning something as big as that.

Of course who wouldn't want a baby in the family. If I would be asked, I want to have one this year. Anyway, I'm already 32 - the same age as my mom when she bore me. If that would happen, my family especially mom and my dad would be delighted. If it would not happen this year, I know that God will give it to me at the right time.


Hope everyone had a happy new year. No more new year's resolution for me this year...but I sure would want to update this blog as often as I can...till next time!
