Loving What I Do

Thu, 13 Sep 2007 06:37:45 GMT

I never expected reading or hearing this from a close friend of mine. I've been busy with work and I did not have enough time to chat around and next thing I know I would know this kind of message from her. I know she has these mood swings but never in my entire life that she would say this:

"Funny si mon nasa manila, pero ano work niya? Di naman art related, ako naman im not in for the fame money or watver, basta ma express ko lang art ko. happy na ako. Art for me is not a means of earning a living, art for me is a way of living. Actually simple lang naman gusto ko, Im a very laid back na person. Tapos im tired chasing dreams in manila, tingnan mo sa mga classmates ko nasa manila are they happy with what they are doing there? Alam mo kaya isip ninyo nagchange ako, kasi totoo nagchange ako. Iba ako sa manila."

I have to admit that after a couple years of working in my field of arts, I got stressed and I felt that I wasn't growing. If I did not have any family to support, I would gladly stay in my field and strive with the low pay and go up year by year. Since my parents are unemployed and my mother only has a small business of accessories and we're still looking for ways to make it bigger, its really hard and very challenging.

I haven't been hanging out with my friends lately, since half of my salary would always go to groceries, bills and the rest for my needs. Needs meaning, money for transportation and buying food. That's just it!

Even though I'm working in a call center and my salary is on 15K its not enough for keeping a family of 4 alive. To be honest, I'm already working in E-Telecare for 8 months and I haven't saved a dime! Good thing that there is a quarterly bonus and that's what I'm waiting so that I could finish paying my credit card and I would be credit free.

I'm writing this not because I'm angry, I'm just disappointed that a close friend of mine would say that. I could go back to my field anytime I want to but I don't want to, not yet. There are times that I long for photography and there are times that I would think of grabbing a pencil and draw. As I said, I still don't want to. I still do abstract painting from time to time and as much as possible I don't want to get addicted to arts.

Arts was my second choice, I wanted to take architecture but there are reasons why I had to take Fine Arts. I just studied it for the sake to graduate with a college degree. There are time I have to admit that Im fond of arts but I just don't want to take that path right now.

Im happy with my work even if its not related to my studies. I'm happy because I'm able to help my family by paying the bills and sharing a part of putting food on the table.

Everyone in the office is supportive and they would find ways to make the office a happier and fun environment. Every 3 months there is a bonus and it would depend on how your performances or stats are. Everyone wants and helps you strive to be better and get promoted. There's no crab mentally.

These are the reason why I'm staying with E-Telecare. The account I'm with is great and everyone is supportive. Why would leave such a great place?

One of the Best Things I Did For ME!

Tue, 20 Feb 2007 16:43:31 GMT

After weeks of training I finally got my first paycheck and guess what I did aside from paying my credit card bill and grocery? I went to the dentist had my yellow stained teeth removed and I love it! Well, if you look closely at my teeth now, you would still see a bit of yellowish but not like before! So I'm not conscious with my teeth anymore and I could smile all I want, not worrying what other people would say!

For years, I have always encountered people saying, "What's that on your teeth?" or "Hey you got something on your teeth!" It was frustrating really and thank goodness its gone!

Let Me Find Some Time

Fri, 14 Jul 2006 17:11:32 GMT

I've been really busy and stressed out with work that I miss having the time of my life. I always end up having no savings especially when I'm paying for my credit card and of course I try to reward myself ever now and then like having a hair cut, hair spa or facial. If I save some money I'm really going to get a full body spa at Lets Face It, The Spa or Hands to Heaven. I really need to get a reward for myself since they way they treat me at the office. Over working the employee like hell! I also need to go back to the dentist and get my teeth cleaned and get a pasta. I really want to get rid of the yellow teeth I have, its really irritating especially with the reactions of people like "You got something on your teeth!" or "Do you smoke too much? Look at you teeth!". For crying it loud when that tooth grew, it already had that yellow stain! That stain was due to the over dose of dextrose when I was hospitalized a when I was a kid. That's what the dentist said.

I also want to save some money so that I could get new clothes, underwear and accessories. I'm stuck with old clothes and I don't like using clothes over and over again in two weeks time.

+ My REWARDS to come... +

Body Massage / Body Spa

Clothes

"Broken And Burned"

Thu, 05 Jan 2006 04:57:30 GMT

There you go
giving your heart back to own
you should wait around to see if they care
But go ahead and see
it will be one of your worst fears to be
Gave your heart away
not much left to say
and apparently it seems to me
You wasted all your time
on a situation that should have been clear to you
So now you know
so betrayed the bitter ache
that you wish would go away
Anyway
I guess you know there's a price to pay
for the trust
you've given so easily away
But now I guess you'll see what it means to be heartbroken

The Suave Lover
40% partner focus, 52% aggressiveness, 50% adventurousness

Based on the results of this test, it is highly likely that:

You prefer your romance and love to be traditional rather than daring
or out-of-the-ordinary, you would rather pursue than be pursued and,
when it comes to physical love, you concentrate more on enjoying the
experience rather than worrying about your performance.

This places you in the Lover Style of: The Suave Lover.

The Suave Lover is a wonderful Lover Style, and is reminiscent
of some of the most classic lover figures of all time, such as Casanova
or Don Juan, or more recently James Bond (several of the "Bond girls"
fit this type, too). This shouldn't be confused with a "player" or
someone who is solely interested in physical love, but someone who is
looking for an incredibly elusive thing: a worthy partner. The Suave
Lover is a treasure to find, but can be incredibly difficult to hold on
to, once found.

In terms of physical love, the Suave Lover can sometimes be
surprisingly tender. Given the right setting, and the right lover, the
Suave Lover can be a delight in bed.

Best Compatibility can probably be found with: The Devoted Lover (most of all) or the Romantic Lover, or the Liberated Lover.

Congratulations!

Girlfriend...

You're ready to roll into a relationship, and you know it. That doesn't mean that you're sworn for life to the particular guy you have a crush on now. But you can see yourself as part of a twosome. If, at any point, the relationship doesn't feel comfortable, remember that you're free to leave. But, unless the guy has really been awful to you, do it in a way that's honest but gentle. And if the guy has been a pig? He doesn't deserve any special consideration when you dump him.

Your Birthdate: March 19

Your birth on the 19th day of the month adds a tone of independence and extra energy to your life path.

But at the same time, it poses a number of obstacles to overcome before you are able to be as independent as you would like. The number 1 energy suggests more executive ability and leadership qualities than your path may have indicated.

A birthday on the 19th of any month gives greater will power and self-confidence, and very often a rather original approach. However, a somewhat self-centered approach to life that may be in conflict with some of the other influences in your life.

This 1 energy may diminish your ability and desire to handle details, preferring instead to paint with a broad brush.

You are sensitive, but your feeling stay somewhat repressed.

You have a compelling manner that can be dominating in many situations.

You do not tend to follow convention or take advice very well.

Consequently, you tend to learn through experience; sometimes hard experiences.

The 19/1 is a loner number and you may experience feelings of being alone even if you are married.

You may take on a tendency to be nervous and angry.

Your half- angel. Not exactly human, but not quite
angel, you walk on earth freely. Half-Angels
have no wings, but tend to show some signs.
Some ways to notice these are that the girl
never menstrates, she cannot bleed, and her
touch seems to give of a glow. No one really
knows how half-angels are born. Some say that
when a child is born, one of the angels blesses
her with her gifts. Others say that they are
cursed creatures, because half-angels cannot
die, while their familly and friends around
them do. Hlaf-Angels are very beautiful and
Kind, and have the power to speak to animals,
but at the same time, sad that they are this
way. Some Half-Angels love being human. Being
able to see, smell, hear, taste,and feel are
all miracles to them. They crave to be more
human-all the time.

The Keys to Your Heart

You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when everything is uncertain, one moment heaven... the next moment hell.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance.

Your ideal relationship is open. Both of you can talk about everything... no secrets.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage something you've always wanted... though you haven't really thought about it.

In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.

A Child of Israel
You scored 30% Pride, 45% Envy, 45% Ambition, and 50% Deceitfulness!

You are one of the Children of Israel. There were many good Children of
Isreal (e.g. Jesus, Moses, Elijah, Daniel, Peter, and so on). However,
for the purposes of this test, you are one of the bad Children of
Israel. You are part of the chosen race of God, but in the Bible it
seemed like you could never stop complaining and messing up. You are
not really a biblical villain in the traditional sense. In fact, you
possess a lot of godly qualities. You are humble, you love your
neighbors, and you are quite trustworthy. However, your relative
slothfulness and recalcitrance made it impossible for you to strive to
reach the high purpose that God had for you. You were content to do
just enough to get by. Therefore, since you're striving was not with
God...it was against God. This is why you are considered a villain.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 7% on Pride
You scored higher than 50% on Envy
You scored higher than 27% on Ambition
You scored higher than 48% on Deceitfulness
