Hello January February March!!!



I'm leaving the town on Sunday, January 10 for Kalibo. I'm a bit excited because I'll be going to Bora!!! and it's Ati-Atihan so our trip is very 'exacto' for the festivities.... Gotta shop for some swimwear kahit hindi beach body... I was hoping that the Bear will come but because he wouldn't want to file a leave and due to budget constraints, we opted that it would be best if we reschedule it on another date so that we could plan the time and budget and he won't have to interfere with my work.

In the meanwhile....THEY ARE COMING TO TOWN!!!!

Mama - Jan. 28 to Mar. 18
Kuya Robert - Feb. 21 to Mar. 23
Kuya Raymond - Mar. 4 to Mar. 18

It's a rare moment for all of us to be together so I'll be taking a leave. I'm so excited to see my family -- coming from different corners of the world.

I mentioned it to my Boss this morning. Alam mo yun... parang he's 'threatening' me na, 'Sige, bahala ka maghabol'. So I fired back -- 'That's why I'm telling you early so that you can make the necessary adjustments. If I absent myself without telling you of my plans, then I wholeheartedly claim the responsibility of making habol with my work.' Even if they oppose, I would still take a leave because such event is a rare one. Kelan pa uuwi si Mama and Kuya ng sabay? I'd really grab this opportunity even if it hurts my rating. I know it's risky because this boss has certain unadmirable tendencies to some things but I don't give a damn. My family matters more. hehehe... pasaway....

In addition to my previous post... while I was nahihirapan with the filing for the exams, the idea of foregoing the exams because it's really not needed came into my mind. I would have not gone back because of discouragement and the hardships I'm going through with the pila, the pictures, the time constraint (because I can't be there on the 22nd). If you're gonna analyze and feel the situation, you can conclude na parang it's not meant to be. But after all those odds, I made it. Wala lang... Just a thought na if you want something badly but the odds are against it, you just have to want it more so that you'll surpass the obstacles. Kung wala kang will power, I think you'll just succumb to the negative things that are hindering you from attaining it. Sometimes, you just have to push yourself a little further and not let the things that are happening control you.

Cheers!!

a quote from Randy Pausch:
Brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want something badly enough. They are there to keep out the other people.
