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.

Company Christmas Party and Other Gimiks
We had our company's Christmas Party last Sunday at the Shangri La Makati. It's my first time to go in a hotel like that. Yeah, true. Weird no? Parang taga-bundok. :D Okay naman sya. :) The food was okay too, and I specially liked the desserts. :) yummy!
We just had a few picture takings using our camera phones. Kasama ko sina Zig, Nina, Arnold, Liza, and Tess. Me, Nina, Arnold and Zig stayed a little later kasi inintay talaga ni Zig yung raffle and he begged us to stay with him para daw may kasabay sya pauwi.
Unfortunately, I can't post the pics here yet 'cause my digicam is still busted. I haven't had it repaired. Yun kasi ang ginagamit kong card reader before. Kainis nga eh. I bought it at a cheap price kasi, and I have only used it for about 5 months and now, it's already dead. Now, I'm working on finding out how I can use a DKU-2 cable to connect my phone to our pc so I can do some file transfers and right now, I haven't figured it out. I just hope I can post the pics as soon as possible.
Sunod sunod na gimik nga ang pinuntahan ko eh. Well actually, that's just two consecutive nights of staying outside home until the break of the dawn. Nung Saturday, the night before our Christmas party, I went to party with my college friends at Malate. Wala lang, naingayan lang ako. Sa Legend kami pumunta, a bar beside Padi's. Hindi ko naman talaga gustong pumunta eh, kaya lang it's some sort of reunion of the barkada kaya nagpaunlak na rin ako. Kakahiya eh, kasi nung unang reunion, hindi ako nakasama. Bumawi lang ako ngayon. And we partied 'til 4am. And take note ha, may pasok ako ng 6am ng Sunday nun. Me pasok din me nung Saturday morning, kaya ang labas ko, walang tulog. Kaya lang pag-uwi ko, hindi ko rin kinaya eh. Balak ko kasi sana, deretso na ko pasok ng Sunday morning, kaso wala na kong palit-palit at ligo-ligo nun pag nagkataon, eh me Christmas Party nga ng 6pm kaya umuwi ako to change and try to take a bath. Kaya lang, naisip ko, baka magkasakit ako sa gagawin ko kaya nag-call in ako for half-day. And everything went like that. Nasa unahan na yung kwento ko ng sunday.:p baliktad no? :D
I'm not really the party goer type. It's just that I was invited to go to a party. And I stay if my friends will request me to, but not really because I'm enjoying the night. Well, I do enjoy it, depends on the atmosphere. I don't like the noisy type kasi e, katulad nung pinuntahan namin nung saturday. Ang ingay talaga, lakas ng sounds. Saka, hindi naman ako mahilig sumayaw. And I don't drink. Like what I've said, I just go to party because I'm invited, but I don't do all that's being done in a party. I have my limitations. Or better said, convictions. I still socialize, but it doesn't mean I will do everything (nasabi ko na ata yun). Basta, eto ang ibig kong sabihin: "Everything is permissible for me"--but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"--but I will not be mastered by anything. 1 Corinthians 6:12 NIV. Syemps, ito ang mundong ginagalawan ko, but that doesn't mean I will always "move with it". If it's wrong, don't do it. Hindi naman ibig sabihin na ginagawa ng madami, tama na eh. We must admit, not everything that feels good is good and beneficial. Basta, yun yun.
Yun lang. Gusto ko lang i-share. I might be posting the pics some other time.
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.
