Thoughts.
I believe in, “what’s meant to be mine, will be mine” and “all in God’s time”. It’s a tough “words to live by” especially when you want or dream of things so badly.
Then there’s this thing of giving yourself a deadline. You start to think, do you even want to have a deadline? It’s good to have it though so you can limit yourself...

Pressure!
Call me impulsive or I may have the sickness of seeking for instant gratification. Usually when my heart is set on to something that I like, I make sure that I get it no matter what.
But things are quite different for now as it is in the middle of the month and I am waiting so patiently on some good news that I have been wanting to hear. And because of this situation of mine that “I’m...

Dear October
Omg. I feel like I’m going insane! First of all, it feels like my heart is going to burst because of this huge thing that I need to keep. Writing is my therapy but I couldn’t even write it out for now. And all these with the stress that I’m feeling with scouting for a new house is really driving me nuts! I’m eager and bummed out at the same time. Yes, it is possible.

frites & fries: I ♥ Chocolate →

I’ve been on a chocolate kick lately. I think it’s due to my current obsession with a Kate Spade clutch that looks like a chocolate bar and the chocolate assortment at The Meadows. Here are some of my favorite chocolate related eats, things and links:

Monday Blues
Remember that I told you I’d be somehow sporty this month? I think I ate a whole chunk of that cake and swallowed it too fast.
Yesterday, Bob and I hung out with his cousins, sister, aunt and nephews. They were roaming around Orchard until they don’t have anywhere else to go. Singapore is so small that we had to try and plan out different activities each day for this 10 day holiday...

1 Minute!
I really just need to share! Joyful news!
Guys, I’m gonna run for the Adidas 16KM Marathon this August! It all started with some couple of colleagues joining and what the heck I might as well run with them too. On my race bib my grandpa’s nickname will be written… “EMONG”. I will dedicate this run to him.
So how am I going to prepare for the run of my life?...

Inspiration strikes to write! I am abnormally awake. I can’t believe this… as if I drank cans of redbulls. My mind is still clear even after I have endured a brutal 10 hour shift. This Friday was good!
The highlight of my night was when celebrities from my hometown came down at my workplace and celebrated the gorgeous Ruffa G.’s birthday. Tim Yap, Rajo Laurel and Christian...

Hey June!
This month is the time of proving. Work wise, I am quite frustrated on how some people still look at me. The stigma is that I am individualistic. Im trying hard to prove otherwise for quite sometime now. Though I still believe in the western way of management and work ethic. I’ll be a different kind of leader I suppose. I need to prove that I can and I am more than what meets the eye.

The Saddest Thing..
I can’t write freely what I think and feel about now. I risk being persecuted by it. I need to be anonymous to express myself truly.

1:23 pm Reflection
Today I woke up early and had time to reflect. A lot of good things that happened this month and one of it is my promotion.
Finally I got promoted in less than 6 months! At first, I was hesitant. I felt that way it’s not because I am not confident in taking the job because I know my colleague deserves it more than me. Yes I did my job the best way I can everyday and I never did try to...

MayDay!
Tracking back my posts… I haven’t loved my blog a lot this April. I guess April was about WORK.
Month of May officially starts. 3 years ago I would be counting down to the days when school is about to end. Around this period we would be crunching to finish reports and prepare for final exams. (Gosh I miss those days). And when everything is done, it’s the time to don the bikini...

Confession
Funny how when I went back to Manila, both my Mom and Dad bragged to their colleagues that I am “chef” daughter. The thing is I was. I am a server now. To put it blunt actually, a waitress of a posh club lounge with an equally posh clientele.
I accepted this job because first, front of the house service was one aspect of F&B I haven’t really grasped on so I wanted to learn...

The past few days we exchanged hurtful words. Its true that we might’ve avoided it. It may turn out differently between us. But I am not sorry. I wasnt at fault. I never wronged you in my book.
I have given up in telling you that I never lied to you. I was the one who had faith in building bridges with you yet you became utterly mad at me. You yourself poisoned your head with lies and...
I just realized that during the time I was back in Manila, I didnt crave to eat the food that we both loved to eat nor even the thought of visiting the places we always hang out.
Well seems like you’re really out of my system.

RSS
And so my bestfriend, Diana, showed me the awesomeness of subscribing to the feed of my favorite blogs by clicking on to this tiny button called RSS. It is found in most blogs (not sure if I have one, and if I do have, will anyone subscribe?). You need also a gmail account so that the feeds will, on a daily basis, something like be sent and updated thru your mail.
Im thinking of the blogs...
