What's weird about today?

Weird today? Maybe...... that I got way more "maldita" than normal.

You know that type of person who only remembers you when they need something from you? Not even an intro of "Hi!" or "How are you?" to start the conversation. I was literally irritated that before I answered the question, I told the person that maybe next time he might want to include an introduction to his message first, a simple greeting at least. Then, I seenzoned his next messages.

Also, I tried to use my softskills with another person in terms of skills improvement.

From that bratty level then switch to angelic level. UGH. No wonder, my moodswings are over the edge.

Weird, right?

*********

Today was quite normal. Tried to be "more" productive at work.

I also had my first teaching session for TOEIC Class, where I learned a new word:

明らか (な-adj)-- evident, obvious, plain

There is this part of the exam about photographs and one part of the test is looking into what is "obvious" in the picture. So, I had to dig into the word so I can explain it to my student. And I think, it will be one word that I will get to use often in the future.

Did a few backreading on my personal blog and it was just amazing to look back. My favorites were the stories I had during my teaching days in the public school. Nothing beats the realizations I had made during those days.

I got a copy of the novel Smaller and Smaller Circles by F.H. Batacan. And I intend to get a book copy when I get back home. I was thinking of rewarding myself a book purchase in Amazon.jp today but I hold off the thought since I am working on "delayed gratification" strategies for my goals moving forward.

I will need to write my 2017 yearend post before I fly back to PH because for sure, I will not have much time and energy when I get there.

I am not looking forward to the trips but I am more excited to just stay at home and annoy my siblings, eat home-cooked meals, go to Starbucks and collect stickers for my 2018 planner, and bum with our cats and my uncle's new ugly dog.

How's my heart? It will be okay. It had never stopped beating in anyway. I miss hanging out at my favorite place though. One day, I will gain the courage to walk that door and sit at my little nook and be "that girl" once again. I miss being invincible, a mere observer, a zero.

The Man Behind the Metaphors

The skies had been dark like a storm is coming. It had been raining the whole night long and when I woke up that day, I had fears that Sir Jonathan can’t come to school anymore due to the heavy downpour. I opted not to ask for I may just get the dreaded response. I prepared for school. Ate breakfast, brought my laptop since I thought I may just have to stop by a coffee shop after school and finish the item analysis I am doing. It was very difficult to get a ride. I wish I can afford to buy a car and save myself and my stuff from getting wet and so that I can bring more things to school for experiments and so that I can to all the places I wanna go to and I don’t have to worry about over-packing stuff and I have thought about all of these just because its raining heavily and I have no school bus anymore L When I arrived, the school seem deserted. No kids nor parents were at the gate. The guard told me that the principal decided to suspend the class lest the heavy rains cou...

11 Things I Will Miss

Malapit na malapit na! Magpapaalam na ko sa pagkabampira. Ang pinakaunang kong career ay nagsimula sa BPO hanggang sa napadpad na ko sa mga “captive sites” companies, at hindi ko ipagkakaila ang malaking pasasalamat ko sa   pagkakataong naibigay sakin sa loob nang mahigit anim na taon. Marami akong natutunan, maraming nais kalimutan at syempre mas marami yung nais kong manatili lalo na yung pagkakaibigan at mga aral sa buhay na nabuo habang ako'y nasa trabaho at nakikisalamuha. Dahil ako ay magbabagong-buhay, nag-isip ako ng mga bagay na talaga namang mamimiss ko pag umalis ako sa pagka nocturnal being. 1. Airconditioned Office - Ang init ngayon! Obvious naman, ang mga callcenters/corporate centers ay may aircons, may alam ba kayong hindi? Ipagbigay alam sa kinauukulan.  2. Ergonomic Chair - na most of the time ay ergonomic bed na din. Natuto akong matulog nang nakaupo.--those split-second moments of opportunity para makadaupang-palad si Sleep.  3....

Just a few days ago, I posted   This Is Plagiarism   together with other write ups. And I never thought I would have this kind of Reply from   Mr. Tripster   J   who called himself   The Epaloid Lover na Feeling Ako Yung Sinulatan Here’s the entire comment: Mr. Tripster 14 March 2013 08:39 This is epalness.... Hi! I'm fine. It's really great to hear from you. I'm not trapped in the future, I do not dwell in the past. I'm simply in your dreams. You have difficulty finding me because you sometimes look in the wrong places and in the wrong moments of the day. Therefore, I cannot manifest in your world. My present is a blur and yet it's blissful. But everything will be clear if we both make a decisive choice and a giant leap of faith in our lives. How soon? I really don't know. We don't ask silly questions. It's just that sometimes we need wisdom. I'd like to be there now. But I'm no master of my time. I'm n...
