I bought a new domain, I realized that having a free account does have its certain limitations. But I won’t be forever closing this site. I’ll maybe drop by a note once in a while as the username still is important to me.

Peace out!

being there

A friend’s dad just passed away.

I was off to work one Wednesday morning, I was hurrying to go up to the office cause we had a meeting at 10:00. I was late again for 15 minutes. The moment I clocked in, I got a call from a colleague/friend saying that she needed help because she’s the only one left in the hospital with her father and that she didn’t know what will happen with her pop.

I asked permission from my boss, but the problem is that I’m not the immediate family. So I had to wait till my break until I could go out and drop by. I told her initially that I would go and visit her when she called. But since I couldn’t, I just texted her saying sorry cause I was still on training and that I would go when I had the chance. A few minutes passed, she texted me her father was already gone…

I felt guilty at that time because I already told her I’d be there; I also felt helpless in the process. My other colleague mentioned though that I shouldn’t feel guilty cause I have an excuse and it’s not my fault

Fast forward to the end of our training, I directly went to the hospital and checked on the situation. She was okay, but her father was already in the morgue. She called me in the first place cause I’m only one of a handful of people that would be there for her when she needed support. I’m glad that she understood the dilemma that I was in.

After about an hour talking and being there, I went back to work.

after helping out

I just got home from helping my colleague who had a stall selling all sorts of things. From some blomus steel fireplace set to clothes, to some blomus stainless steel teaset to watches. I don’t know what happened why she suddenly ventured into this type of business but she told me that she wanted to get rid of debts by earning more than what she’s getting from work. She had a point, but at that time, I had a hard time thinking because I was carrying this blomus steel firepit with me up to the third floor. At least the things are made of good quality that anyone who’d plan to buy them wouldn’t regret their purchase.

As I arrived home, I saw some people I used to know in school. Upon closer inspection, indeed they were my brother’s classmates back in high school. It’s nice that despite the years, my brother is still able to keep in touch with them. He’s still that big guy in school that everybody didn’t want to mess around with because of his size. But still he is able to maintain a cool demeanor despite what happened to our lives. I hope I can have the same effect when I go back to the place I’m planning to drop by.

split or multiple or neither?

I find myself weird sometimes that I get to maintain multiple blogs, well maybe not that multiple. But is 4 already a lot? The two other blogs already have their own niche, but the other two I’ve just categorized as personal ones. These other two blogs I get to write about anything that fancies me; of course, the first one is more public.

I asked some colleagues if this is normal, do I have some sort of split or multiple personality problem; or if this is at all a type of disorder. Anyway, I still don’t think I’m crazy; at least not yet anyway.

self-conscious

If I only knew how to be indifferent, I wouldn’t be so self-conscious.

fun person

Somebody said I might be a fun person to hang out with. It’s a good feeling knowing that people still have the notion of thinking and saying nice things about you; and they’re sincere at that. I don’t even know if it’s true but I just want to show myself as a happy-go-lucky person who doesn’t want to think too much negative thoughts cause I already have a lot already. That statement actually brightened my day, because it made me feel that I’m still worth something, which I rarely get nowadays.

ghosts are we all

Aren’t we but wanderers in transition?
With a purpose of finding our reason.
We deem that life is just temporary,
and hope for something better to see.
But after every tragic fall,
We realize that ghosts are we all.

being talkative

I never imagined I could talk that much in a single seating. Well, when it’s an interesting topic that you’re discussing, of course, time flies.

Some colleagues and I were eating at the pantry, it’s a Friday and we’re almost done with our target for the fiscal month. We were just lounging and talking around. It started around 12:30pm, the next instance when I looked at the time, it was already 4:00pm! Goodness, 3 and a half hours of nonstop talk! Mind you though, we were able to talk with sense. It’s more on business as well.

I’m insecure of myself, honestly. I’m such a negative person that I feel somewhat frustrated because up to now, I still stutter when I speak.

People would say it’s actually a great feat, being able to be almost an all-around person with a thick face, developing his PR skills to every person he meets. The description seems nice but the operative word is still “almost”.

I’m actually more pressured because I still think of what people are going to say. I am still self-conscious that I am my worst critic. Anyway, I have to get this mentality out of my head cause it’s not proper.

show me the money!

I’m still in the midst of doing something while not doing anything at all. Sounds confusing? Yeah, I don’t even get myself sometimes. Well, I came to the office late today, 16 minutes to be exact. I hate being late, good thing the proposed meeting was postponed; or else I have to bear the embarrassment of people staring at me for being tardy.

So, since our tools were also down, I just had to check some mails to see what’s new around the corner. Lo and behold! I scanned my messages and I just got approved by PayPerPost! I’m just glad that after building this blog up, I’m able to start earning something from this hobby since I also need the moolah.

I’m very happy to be part of this type of community since I’ve heard rave news about this platform. The best thing about it are the opportunities because I can choose which blog reviewsare going to be present as I don’t want to veer too much from the concept of my blog as well.

Well, let’s see what’s in store for me in this type of business. People are too skeptical at this venture at first, but they’ll think twice once I tell them about the benefits of posting. I’m actually happy because even if I’m dead-tired from waking up too early, my eyes grew wide open when I saw the message. I feel like Tom Cruise in his classic movie, Jerry Maguire cause it’s my turn to say “Show me the MONEY!!!”
