Ayaw ko sa ulan.. pwamis!

It's been raining for 'bout 3 days (sometimes at night or early morning or lunch..or merienda.. blah, blah, blah!) I get depressed when it rains. i dunno why.. i guess i'm one of those people whose hormones are triggered by the rain. pag ganito na ang view from our pantry window, i panick.ever since i was in preshcool, i hated it when it rains. It's so hard to get in the school bus and no garden play for me. when i was in grade school, i even hated it more coz our Christmas program was ruined aaaaaaand! it feels gross staying inside a school bus or cab after running in the rain... tapos super hirap pa mag-commute tapos ang dali ko pa magkasakit! i swear, a drizzle for like 8 seconds makes my nose runny and my throat dry. When it rains, important events can't push thru coz people are stranded anywhere and the venue gets all messed-up! sheesh, i can think of so many things that's real negative about the rain.. but then again, it has some benefits. (er, wala lang akong maisip ngayon) Rain, rain go away! Come again another day...

My Weekend


Last weekend, I was so glad to finally get a "break" from work (actually, EVERY weekend pala yun!) My friend, shai called me at 8AM and told me she's surprised that i wasn't in line. I asked her, "In line for what?" and she didn't say anything. Then it hit me!! Book 6 was out! daym! i got worried and restless since i didn't have a reservation. I also called up watson and texted some avid fans of HP to check if they had theirs already. GRRR! When i got to the office at 8:30, fisherpau had hers already. then nick came at around 11am and showed me a bag of natio with something inside. (hmm, anu kaya yun) So i finally went to national glorieta to get my copy. I think they had enough stocks for everyone even if there were like 4 of us in line buying the same book. i also noticed that they had to refill the shelves every 5 minutes. The book's thiner than book 5 and costs PhP 1,499.00. I got a 10% discount that day. . dunno if they still do this week...
The next day, it was my turn to be a Teacher Dessa again at sunday school so i told them the story of Gideon and how he obeyed God when he destroyed the statue of Balaam. nways, there wasn't any outrageous hirits but then as usual, it was crazy!!! hehe... and fun at the same time though. we did some coloring and fingerprints. after the worship service and my class, noel texted and told me to meet him and his cousins in town since they wanted me to with them to EK (or maybe it was his tita who wanted me to come so i can babysit his younger cousins) either way, i'm still glad i came. EK was closing for the season and only a few people were there. This was definitely an advantage since we got to go on almost all the rides (except for the space shuttle - pwede ko shang ikamatay) even thrice on each one! =) None of us brought a phone or camera coz we might lose it during the ride. It was drizzling a bit but it was ok. Here are my comments on EK on it's 10th year:
-maybe i should wait another 10 years 'til i ride that roller coaster
-their war games thingamajig had surots on their protective gear (boo got all these red spots all over)
-the rio grande is the best but then they should consider changing the water
-log jam still gives me a heart attack on the last dip
however, i'm glad there's a cool theme park like EK here in the philippines. kahit papano, it's something different from all the other parks we had here in the past.

Todo-Inventory na 'to!


Last Saturday, my group was assigned to major inventory in our warehouse at cavite. As early as 8:30 AM, people came in and teamed up in pairs to start counting. Watson (who was purely a volunteer--- mwah!) was my partner and we were TEAM 1!!! yeah! go TEAM 1! (nyerk) Our warehouse is huge and i was worried we won't finish by sunday--they planned to work until morning. helr? o diba at lahat yan ay bibilangin namin, bubuksan isa-isa ang kahon, lalagyan ng sticker, ibabalik sa kahon, pagkatapos isisigaw ang serial number. actually,si watson lahat ang gumawa nun. i did all the listing and sometimes placed the green and pink sticker on the box or the equipment itself. Then fisherpau came in the afternoon and teamed up with watson and i. yey! this acitivity was fun coz different people from different deparments joined. it took us the whole day to complete this task and we finished at around 11:00 PM. some people stayed until 12am! (mga bayani ito) we decided to go home since ang bagal na namin magbilang. another good thing about this acitivity is the food!!! foody! ang daming food! here are some things you would hear if you joined our inventory:

1. MAMA-ECHO-SIERRA-FOUR-TWO-CHARLIE-ALPHA (mga serial number)
2. Um, anong page na kayo? kasi kami page 7 na eh (padaminhan ng pages na natapos 'to)
3. tut-tut-tut! (aatrasan ka ng forklift)
4. break time na!
5. PC one burger please!
6. may size 5 pa sa stock 3972 na orange?
o diba? yung iba walang sense talga. feeling mcdo or sm

here is a pic of a fatty me counting away with stickers and making poses sa forklift (ehehehehe) watson is my photographer kaya wala kaming pic parehas. i think he and fisherpau will be blogging this one too, though:

Jesus Power!!!

Some verses to share:
\
For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)
\
The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6:23)
\
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
\
If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9)
\
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord (Acts 3:19)
\
Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:38)

Neat-Freak

When i was a teenager, one could say i was a 'neat-freak'. When i got to college, i even considered myself with OCPD (obsessive compulsive personality disorder) due to this overwhelming urge to keep things organized nad neat. After graduation, i always bragged that being organized was one of my strengths. Argh!
/
And theeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnn... i got busy. too busy to fix my stuff and my table. drat. now i don't have time to be oc-oc anymore. i'm starting to know my mess and be comfortable with a gross-looking table. every time i go home, i just shove everything inside my overhead cabinet and take it out the following day. My desk is really gross.. kulang nalang bad smell, you have a complete picture of a dumpsite. haaaay... when oh, when will i get a chance to fix this? feeling ko tinatamad nako magpakaorganize. mid-year evaluation is coming up and i'm so sure my boss will point this out to me... waaaaaa!
