.:: Goldi's Noted Thoughts ::.
Sometimes I believe all the lies
so I can do the things I should despise.
And everyday I am swayed
by whatever is on my mind.

I hear it all depends on my faith
so I'm feeling precarious.
The only problem I have with these
mysteries is they're so mysterious.

And like a consumer I've been thinkin'
if I could just get a bit more...
More than my fifteen minutes of faith,
Then I'd be secure...

My faith is like shifting sand,
changed by every wave...
My faith is like shifting sand
so I stand on grace...
Stand on grace.

I begged You for some proof
for my Thomas eyes to see.
A slithering staff, a leprous hand,
and lions resting lazily.

A glimpse of Your backside glory
on this soaked altar going ablaze.
But You know I've seen so much,
I explained it away...

My faith is like shifting sand
changed by every wave...
My faith is like shifting sand
so I stand on grace

Waters rose as my doubts reign
My sand castle faith have slipped away
I found myself standing on Your grace
It'd been there all the time

My faith is like shifting sand
changed by every wave...
My faith is like shifting sand
so I stand on grace...
Stand on grace.
Life can seem unbearable at times, but don't let it keep you down. Meditate on God's goodness, talk to Him, and know that He hears you. When life knocks you to your knees, you're in a good position to pray.

Ang Pasko ay Sumapit
Yes! Finally I finished my new layout! It's not really a totally new layout, because I still used the same picture and same colors, I just change some. This is what I really want my layout to look like. Kasi kapag mataas ang resolution, nagkakaroon ng extrang space sa gilid, so I tried to find out how I can make it stay in the middle. And I changed some of the colors. So far, I am satisfied with what I did. :)

Christmas has just passed. Parang wala lang sa kin. Just like another day, a little different from the ordinary. It's not that I don't feel the essence of Christmas, but you know, everything we do during Christmas can be done on a daily basis diba? Sabagay, it's still different. Saka pati, may pasok ako sa trabaho. Feeling ko nga naubos na ang tao sa Pilipinas nung papasok na ko eh. I saw a totally different Makati kasi. Halos walang tao. Deserted. This is actually not a wholly new experience for me 'cause I've also spent my Christmas at work last year. I was on probation then kaya di muna ako nag-leave. Saka pinagbawal ng Team Manager before. Ang kaibahan nga lang nun, panggabi ako kaya I literally spent my Christmas at work. Ngayon kasi morning shift na ko, so I was at least able to spend the night before Christmas with my family. On duty din ang tatay namin kaya he decided to just let us spend our Christmas with Tita Ava in San Pedro, Laguna. Lola and my other aunt is also there. Kaso naman, natulog lang din ako ng Noche Buena eh. May pasok kasi ako kinabukasan kaya umidlip muna ko, kaso hindi naman ako ginising nung kumakain na sila. Wala din. Tulog lang ako. :P

I woke up very early today, 'cause I don't know how long my ride will take from San Pedro to Makati, and I don't want to be late (again). I ate some left-overs from last night's Noche Buena, then head off to work. Pagadating ko sa work, nakasabay ko sina Lei & Mel sa elevator. I asked how was their night (they're working on Christmas eve) at sinabi nila sa kin na nag-iyakan daw ang iba. Hehehe.. most of the GY peeps now are ladies... emotional ladies. They weren't able to bear kasi the fact that they are spending Christmas away from their family. Petty ba? Honestly, I do think it is. But I also understand how they feel. Women are naturally emotional. And it is really sad when you think of your family having the time of their lives together because not all of the time you'll get to see each other all in the house except during holidays like this, and when you look at yourself, you are slaving yourself at work instead of exchanging some talks and laughs with your loved ones. Well, ganun talaga. And that means they'll have to wait for 365 days again before they get a chance to spend Christmas with their family. That is, if they don't have work.

Tapos ng kwento, there some foods left in the stations. Since they spent their Christmas eve at work, the company has provided something to eat for Noche Buena. Masarap din nman yung food eh. I helped myself on some chocolate cake that's left, ate a peanut butter glazed doughnut, and a sans rival. Puro sweets no? And puro leftovers :P. Syempre may mga nauna nang kumain e :D. Got just a few calls so this day just went on lightly. Aba naman, Christmas eve ano, patawarin naman na nila ang holiday :D. Syemps habang downtime, I worked on the layout of this blog. And this is the finish product. :)

Yun lang naman for this day. Merry Christmas to you all. And Happy New Year. ;)

About This Blog
I don't intend this to be my life's chronicles but I might write some of my experiences here. Even so, everything that's written in here are either products of my excessive contemplation, or just plainly, pure boredom. In any case, I still try to write as sensible as possible, for what I really intend to do and I hope is achieved in every writing, is to impart or share some of the things I learn and sometimes, some struggles in life. Don't expect all seriousness in everything in here though.

In short, this blog is my outlet. My noted thoughts and reflections.

About Me

Name: Goldi

Birthday: June 2

Hobbies & Interests: Jesus, music, books, journals, internet, computers, tech stuff, gadgets * sound tripping, singing, playing musical instruments (I know guitar and flute recorder, I just wish I can play them well), watching movie with a tub of popcorn drizzled with melted butter (yum!), reading * observing, pondering, reflecting, learning * laughing or making people laugh (though I'm not good at it) and laugh with them, make people smile, or just listen to their stories. Minsan, trip ko lang din mang-asar =p

About Me: I'm a simple, idealistic but down-to-earth, & friendly person. Quiet most of the time, but friendly enough to have a nice talk (or even a hearty laugh) with anyone. "I myself no longer live, but Christ lives in me. So I live my life in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me." Galatians 2:20 NLT

Principles I live by:

"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." -Psalm 37:4

"If people talk negatively about you, live in such a way that no one will believe them."

"God is a God of happy endings. If you're not yet happy, it's not yet the end."

"It's not what we know but what we do that counts." -Our Daily Bread

"It is our choices that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." -Dumbledore, Harry Potter 2

"Girls should assume that until a guy expresses interest, they're just friends." -J. Harris, Boy Meets Girl

"True love doesn't just wait; it plans." -Boy Meets Girl

"Eros will have naked bodies; friendship naked personalities." -C.S. Lewis

"Ideals are like stars; we will not succeed in touching them with our hands but by following them, as the sea faring man in the ocean, we will reach our destiny." -J. Harris, Boy Meets Girl
