My Relationship is Still Building Strength

Yes, that is true. I won't even deny that one bit. Yes, we've been together for a year already but still I think there's still more to learn about each other. Maybe it's part of the growing up process as well. We grow up each day and in different ways. And everyday we have to learn that something new about each other. If you come to think about it, that's good since we always have something new to talk about.

But is that truly the case? I really do hope so.

I'm scared of something. At this point in time, other people with relationships this long, they're pretty established already. I'm not sure if I can say the same thing about me. Is it because we're growing slowly? Or what's worse, we're not growing at all! :o

Well, I don't think that's what's happening to us. Well, I sure do hope that's not what's going on. I'm still hoping and praying that our relationship will be as strong as it can be. That we continue to grow together and head for the same direction. :)

How to save a life

I didn't know how to name this entry so i'm naming it after the song that i am listening to... :o)

Today, I didn't go to work. I'm supposed to be on CDO but then Ron (I think) got a little bit mad cause it was not planned. I just found out yesterday and I didn't want to go on SL anymore. I've been on SL for a day or two for the past couple of weeks so I really didn't want to use those leaves.

He texted me last night that SLs and CDOs are planned on the other hand, we have Emergency Leaves for those unplanned. I really don't want to call it an Emergency cause that's not my definition of an emergency. He said okay in the end but then I feel bad about it. :(

So anyway, I'm taking my CDO today because of this interview of ABS-CBN. It's about the dogs. Bad thing is, not one of my friends can make it so I fear that I will be alone today. :( So sad.

Another thing that makes me sad right now is the fact that Nannah and Carla visited my office yesterday but I was not able to see them because of a call. Priorities. :( So sad. Oh well. Next time. I really hope so see them soon! :)

They left me this really sweet short note and I really got soo touched. I really miss my friends. Yeah, I do have new friends here in the office but it's different. I don't know why. Maybe it was because we didn't have that much responsibilities back then?

This is what Nannah gave. Her long overdue stuff. The bag is from Australia while the little girl is from Bagiuo (or so I think!). Anyway, it's really cute. On our way back home from work, Ralph, Jef and I were thinking of a name for her. Weildy? Not sure about the spelling of the name though but it's kinda cute though, right? :)

We were talking about stuffed toys and I had an idea. I kind of want to collect the little bearista stuffed bears from starbucks. Thos magnetic ones. But then, I really don't know where to put them. I can't place them on my trolley naman cause it might get lost. :)

Another thing, my parents were with my sister yesterday. That really makes me happy. I super miss my sister soo much already. I wish she just goes back home and I wish that everything will go back to normal - no matter how kind of impossible that is... I'm still wishing for it.

Met up with my sister to day again. I super miss her already! :) I really hope that I could meet up with her regularly. Well, better if she would go back home. I miss going around the mall with her. Sharing with her everything. My problems, my concerns. I know that sometimes we don't meet eye-to-eye but nobody is really the same. Utterly the same. And like what Bert said before, it's boring if two people are the same in every way. No way of growing up. Of learning about life and other things. I guess I learned quite a lot also from my sister. And I do thank her for everything.

Hope

This weekend has been quite okay. I can't complain about anything. Went to the parlor and had a foot spa. Now, my foot is nice and soft. However, it hurts whenever I walk for a very long time. Even more when I'm running on the treadmill (which reminded me why I never had a foot spa after a long time!). I remember that time when I had a foot spa, I was fairly young then, I can't quite remember though how old I was. After that, I went to the gym, and it was painful when I did aerobics (yep, I did that before - and I was pretty good at it before). Now, that person in me is lost. I'm trying to find her again though... :)

Anyway, went to greenhills after lunch to look for those beads again. I'm beginning to reconsider going back to my old hobby - making jewelry. I'm still thinking about it though. In line with that, I registered for the Arts & Crafts thing here at the office. AND that would be in line with my plan of being more active at the office. With that plan of mine, I also signed up for the Snacks N Learn Committee. I'm in the same team as Tops and I'm also working on it right now.

Really, I should be excited with all of these activities. This is what I really am interested in anyway. NOT work. :)

I had dinner with Bert at Kaiseki, Fort. It's been such a looong time since we last hung out with each other - alone. I really miss it. And I'm really thankful that we got the time out from everything. I'm really hoping for more of those actually. :)

Next stop (I hope) would be Serendra. We tried going there but there was NO PARKING everywhere. Such a hassle. It would really be nice to hang out there and to walk to Bonifacio High Street.

Night cap. Starbucks. As usual. Watched the 2-week marathon of Sana Maulit Muli then slept.

The following day, we were supposed to go to Binondo but we didn't push through because we almost got into an accident. I had to drive back home from Bel Air to the house. We ate lunch at home. Just ordered from Max. Then chilled at home. I asked Bert to come to the house early and guess what? My mom got pretty pissed off about it. I really didn't get it though. At night, she cooled down already when she found out that Johnson told my aunt that it was good we didn't push through. :P

Had to drive to work today. Obviously, I'm still alive. Will drive back again tonight. On Wednesday, I still don't know how Deng and I will go to work. But things will work out. Things always have a funny way of working out.

**********

Well, I really do hope for a lot of things:
1.) I hope that Bert and I will have a lot of time to be together... just the two of us.
2.) I hope that my mom would cool down for a bit. She's just too high strung sometimes.
3.) I hope that I have to courage to drive alone. So that I can be really INDEPENDENT from everyone else.

The Graduates

I just finished the OC Season 3 (see, I'm not that baduy...) and I was pretty sad about the ending of this season. Boohoo that the original cast would not even finish the entire show. Soo sad that they had to kill off Marissa. It's just weird cause it's not THE OC without her, right? I wonder why they decided to do this. They should have just let her leave and then come back and when she comes back there would be another twist cause everything is soo different. But hey, I don't know any better cause I'm not the writer. It's just that I'm seeing the end of the glory days of OC. It's really not the OC if it's not original, right?

I've been at home the whole day. Working from home and doing the DM stuff here at home. It's quite relaxing actually. If I can stay with this schedule for the whole year, why not, right? But I can't. Come March, I have then to decide which day I should work from home. I can't work from home on Thursday cause Kay flagged taht down already. Before the new year, I've been working from home every Tuesday but then I was thinking of chaning it to Wednesday so that it'll be a mid-week break, you know? Like what Deng, KD and Ralph are doing. Well, I still have a month plus something days to think about that.

I was supposed to write something here but I decided not to so as not to jinx it. I'm fine with how things ahve been lately. Maybe, if there would be some improvements, I'll be glad to welcome them but I can say that I'm okay. Not contented. There are still problems but nothing that we can't get by, right? :)
