in MY Treasure Box

This simple paint brush draws a lot of memories in my life. This may not be the typical brush used by a painter for a landscape exhibit but this one is so special because it brings back the old good times. I remembered I even got mad with my brother when he used it to paint our walls without asking my permission.  I really don’t care if someone uses my things with no permission, I rarely get mad for such a lame reason but this time I did. Kainis! Bawal gamitin to! Ako lang pwede gumamit nito! Para sa Computer ko to! Though I was so upset with my brother I let it pass; besides he doesn’t know the reason why. I just value this thing that much. Anyways I was able to wash the paint out the bristles and blew it dry. And this time I’ll be more kempt of this valuable thing for I value the person behind it.

I just can't contain the feeling every time I hear this song. It relaxes me, so cute :)

This is what happens when you watch too much of Taiwanese TV Series.

Be with Me, Always ♥

On this day of your life, Mj, we believe God wants you to know ... that you are beautiful.

Even when you feel ugly or depressed or guilty or ashamed, there is an inner spark in you which is light. This light is your beauty. This light is your reflection of God. You are a child of God, thus you are beautiful.

Lord, please be with me with everything I do. Let your eyes be my sight to see the beauty of life despite all the sorrows it brings. Let your ears be my hearing to listen more sincerely. Be my tongue so I can speak the words I need to say without stabbing anyone. Let your intellect fill my thoughts so I can make the right decision with every uncertainty I may face.  Stay in my heart always and lit the light I have within me so I can illuminate to the people surrounding me. Show the brightest inner spark I have to someone who is buried in the shadows of darkness.  I may not be your most dutiful child but I promise to show my kindest heart to people who need further understanding. Lead me to the right path but let me learn from the detours I will pass. Your almighty I humble myself to welcome you and nest you in my heart, in my life always. Thank you for your glorious kindness and generosity.

Something I expected yet was astounded with fright

If you can read between the lines you'll understand what I am going through.

Last day (July 6, 2012): Goodbye Hanston Square, goodbye United

It was July 7, 2011 when I first stepped my foot on the 25-storey Grade A building of Hanston Square.  When we did test calls while the Technical Team was setting up the system for IBM’s upcoming movement. I had so much fun and excitement when I first saw how our production floor looks like. Walls painted in white and blue, a wide tinted glass window, wide work stations with cream colored desk parted by mint green and gray divisions, and a very nice ceiling.

I will surely miss this place. I will miss the ballet studio like pantry, the nurse station, yung elevator na sobrang bagal (yung tipong pag running late ka na eh nananadya pa), yung locker room, restroom, yung kubo, parking area, smoking area, yung mahabang lakad mula EDSA papunta sa building.

I may sound too exaggerating to feel so sad about leaving this place. But there are things that you can’t help to miss especially if you had memories (good or bad) that make your work life gratifying. Actually, it is not just the place that I will miss but the people. Yung mga taong nakakasalubong mo na magsasabi ng hello, babatiin ka, makikipagkwentuhan sayo habang nagmamabagal ang elevator. Yung mga nurses na sobrang friendly, yung mga co-workers mo na kahit hindi ka kilala personally ngingitian ka, yung mga Managers, Service Director, Quality Analyst, TSE, maintenance, guard, at agents na kahit sobrang busy uunahan ka pa sa pagbati. I just feel overwhelmed in this place.

From the first day till the end I enjoyed every second I have in Hanston Square because I had a lot of memories cherished here. I’ve seen people (friends mostly) who had to leave from this place, I never thought that I would have to do the same. Now I know how it feels to leave. Goodbye Hanston Square, goodbye United.
