WHY COMPLICATE LIFE?

LAZY DAYS

Here in my room, in front of my computer all day, don't want to go out, don't want to mingle, I just feel like being a lazy ass today! Oh yeah, this is one of those days. But I do loving it when I'm like this sometimes. It's a "me alone time" and I've grown to love it. 

MY ESCAPE

I miss having the person that was my escape from the world around.....

I AM BLESSED

October 14, 2011 - I celebrated my 28 years of existence. It's been a beautiful journey so far. Meeting different people, sharing lives with them, knowing who to keep and who to let go. I know that my life is just starting and that there will be a lot more in store for me. Being the risk-taking person that I am, future is something that I am not afraid of and will always look forward to. The journey becomes more exciting and fun if you have true friends along the way. For me, it's better to have friends that is not more than what your fingers can count, as long as all of them are true. I am proud to say that I got tons of them. 

My day becomes more meaningful because of friends that showed their love and care for me. I so appreciate their efforts to surprise me and make me feel the most special person on that day. 

I got my team who surprised me on my birthday. They set-up this balloons and Hello Kitty party hats at our work station and a cake. I am actually on leave for that day, but since they keep on calling and sending text messages for me to come to work, I was forced to. I was really touch by the gesture, I so appreciate their efforts and felt so special then. LOL!

Breakfast with good buddies...

And my Bosses treated me for an eat all you can and got the crew sang a Happy Birthday song with a cake!

I am thankful to God for giving me wonderful friends which I can treat as my family too. Thank you Lord for letting me feel that I have lots of people around me. The greetings, text messages, emails and calls from everyone are non-stop and this shows those who are worth keeping as they really took a little of their time just to make me feel special on my day. I am blessed!

VANITY STRIKES AGAIN

Last week, after shift, I accompany my friend Slice at Bench Fix Salon to have a hair-cut. I have no plans of having my hair done. But since I am just sitting and waiting there, I was convinced by the crews that I should have something for my hair. So I decided to have a colored cellophane. I got lots of gray strands anyway, mind you - a lot! LOL. After coloring my hair, it's time for the blow dry. The stylist asked me if I wanted it to be a little wavy, I just said "OK". When it's all done, OMG! I just love the wavy effects that the stylist did to my hair. Too bad I will just go straight to bed when I come home. Haha! That's why Slice took a picture from her phone because we can't help but love the wavy hair!

Vanity strikes again! =)

THOUGHTS TO PONDER

1. If you can't see the bright side, polish the dull side.
2. Kind words make good echoes.
3. Life is short, pray long.
4. The best things in life aren't things.
5. No God, no peace. Know God, know peace.
6. Life is a measure to be filled, not a cup to be drained.
7. When you're green with envy, you're ripe for trouble.
8. The tongue weighs practically nothing, but few can hold it.
9. We stand tallest when we stoop to help others.
10. We receive or achieve only when we believe.

happy Monday to everyone 

and have a great week ahead!

REPLAY

Wish I could go back in time 

and replay some of the moments I miss best.

WINDY

It's a windy Sunday afternoon and I am loving it! No rain, not much sun - it's a perfect weather. Happy Sunday to everyone. Enjoy the simplicity of the day. 

DOESN'T MEAN...

The caption graphic goes to i-am-iNa . I am pre-occupied with a lot of things lately and that includes updating Through the Lens. But that doesn't mean I don't love this blog anymore! I do and I felt a little bad not updating it. LOL! There's actually a lot going on lately but my mind's too tired to put it into writing. Let me start with the things I find interesting these past few days. Will try...

SUCH A DORK!

Took this photo while at work. Saw the eye glasses in the Quality Room and decided to wear and have a pic. I admit that in some ways, I have that nerdy personality too. :)

I'm the biggest nerd - I love comic books and stuff like that! I don't have any friends who are actresses. I only had one girlfriend when I was growing up. Most of my friends were boys. I was such a tomboy. I enjoyed doing guy things.

SAME SHIRTS

Us three have this thing about buying same shirts. 

PILIPINAS SHIRT

Bought these shirts December 2009 at F&H. We really all wanted to have the black one but since there's no available sizes for them, they ended up buying different colors. We even went to the 3 nearest mall just to look for the black colored shirt. Haha. Why we called it PILIPINAS SHIRT? Because it has the Philippine Map at the top left of the shirt. At gusto lang  namen!

I AM PINAY

Bought these shirts July 2011 at Penshoppe. Well, we thought that we haven't bought same shirts again. We have always planned to buy but we always ended up thinking "Next time na lang!". So when we went recently to a mall and have our coffee time, we decided to buy same shirts for the 2nd time. I super love the caption that is on the shirt. So cool! :)

FAVE POSE

1st photo - December 2009

2nd photo - February 2011

3rd photo - July 2011

Photos of me and Zab or Bhe (our terms of endearment, LOL). The first two photos were really coincidence. They just happened to be the same without us realizing it until now, while we really intended the third photo to be the same as the other two. The reason why this is our favorite pose: she's small and I am tall! I always unconsciously put my arms on her head whenever we're taking pictures, and so it became our fave pose. Haha!

Photos of me with Zab and Che taken at different dates but with the same shots. We actually did this intentionally. :)

GOOD VIBES

June has not been so good to me.

I am welcoming July with positiveness. 

Good vibes - please stay!

I'M BUSY LIVING

Haven't visited my blog for like a week. Me was so occupied lately and would always want to rest during my free hours. Not much happened. Work still eat most of my time. Haha! I am truly blessed that I have my lil' man at the end of the day. At times I wish that I could just be a full-time Mom, but that would be an impossible wish for a single-parent like me. I am just so thankful to God for giving me such a wonderful son, he completes me. :)

RAINY WEEK

It has been raining everyday last week. You know how it is when raining - lazy! Oh yeah, with that kind of weather, you would just want to stay home, in your bed, under the sheets and sleep. But then I simply can't. Still reported to work with those storms and flood. It's business as usual!

I am still blessed to have a house that will comfort me in times like that. I will always be thankful and grateful to God for taking care of me, my family and my friends. :)

HAPPY MORNING

It's a happy Monday morning. 

I am currently enjoying my cup of coffee 

with a smile. :) 

Hope this feel good mood lasts for a week. 

TONIGHT, I WANT....

It's a weekend again and I feel like enjoying it tonight. The statements above hit it, but not the 3rd one though.  Or not so?! LOL. I just really wanna have some fun tonight. After being stressed at work for 5 days, I do need to go out on a weekend. :)

1ST DAY OF SCHOOL STORIES

It's my Lil' Man's 1st day at school earlier and I was able to fetch him right after my shift. My day at work has been a long one. Reported so early and had gone home really late. But hearing my son's "1st day of school" stories and seeing excitement in him removes all the stress in me. He is definitely all I need to live!

I MISS BLOGGING!

I've been to a lot of stuffs lately. I'm just pre-occupied with this and that and it made me neglected my blog for quite awhile. Never realized that I soooooo miss blogging. This will be my 5th post for today. Hell yeah! 


Some might find it weird and maybe wondering why bloggers felt a little bad whenever they failed to post on their blogs. You know what? I am also wondering why! LOL. Well I guess, this is our way of releasing the thoughts we have inside. I admit that I'm not a good speaker, I am having a hard time expressing myself at times. Writing makes it all easier for me to let out what I have in mind. 


My blog also serves as a diary or journal for me, it's like jotting down all those memories, good or bad. It just made me feel good entering a post in my blog every now and then. I encourage everyone to try it!
