Happy birthday!

I was drinking coffee this morning and wondering what is so special with this day. Seems memorable to me.

OMG! Then  I remember IT IS YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!! My special-occasions-reliable phone went bust and so I have to rely on my poor memory to remember those special days.

Hehehe! Hope you'll have a memorable day today, spending it with loved ones in Singapore and anywhere. I know the desires of your heart will come true in time. At the right time. Takes painful patience, right? But you're quite good at being patient.  

And take good care of that kind and loving heart of yours. It's meant to be shared with someone who rightfully deserves it. =)

All the best. More blessings from above.

Oh, by the way, you have to take me to this fancy restaurant! Hehehehehe!!!

Your high-maintenance-and-crazy-once-girlfriend,
Jen

A dream

Dreamed of a fish in a fish bowl. I thought it was just an ordinary dream arising from my plan of buying a fish in a bowl.

To see fish swimming in your dream signifies insights from your unconscious mind. Thus to catch a fish represents insights which have been brought to the surface. Alternatively, a fish swimming in your dream may symbolize conception. Some women dream of swimming fish when they get pregnant. The fish is also an ancient symbol of Christianity and Christian beliefs. Consider the common phrases "like a cold fish", "fish out of water" or something that is "fishy" about a situation. It may also imply a slippery or elusive situation. Perhaps your dream could be telling you that "there are plenty of other fish in the sea", with regards to some relationship issue.


I personally think it doesn't mean anything. It's just that when I told my officemates about it, they started to give me different interpretations. Some may be true; one bothersome.

Entertain me!

Found myself really sleepy this afternoon that I started doing silly things like opening my Facebook account every now and then without finding something really interesting on fb.

Then I started to google, "Entertain me." And I found this photo of Spiderman in http://www.i-am-bored.com/bored_link.cfm?link_id=65923:

Spider-man says: Paint me like one of your French girls.
Hahahaha!!!

I was eventually led to a wonderful site, http://www.ehow.com/info_8567378_qualities-admirable-person.html. This site has a lot of interesting stuff. And it seems to be a feel-good site! Tres cool!

And this one: http://www.essentiallifeskills.net/positivehabits.html!

Okay, back to work. :)

Happy Sunday!

Happy today.

And glad to know that some people have not forgotten my prayer intentions. Thank you, Julie! It's Christ the King Sunday.

And may I get over what the WB economist told me about her good plans for me. And start seriously working on this paper. Deadline on Friday! But thank you, Lord, for such nice people. They remain an inspiration. May she and her husband recover smoothly from their joint lasik surgery.

And, you! Pray before you go through your surgery tomorrow. I'll be praying for your safety and speedy recovery.

Happy me,
Jen

Oyo Boy Sotto - Kristine Hermosa Wedding Video

I love watching this video over and over again.


It reminds me that something great comes out from waiting, and not from getting things in an instant.
For that, I remain hopeful. And not bothered. I love weddings! Just not yet mine. Not yet. 'Coz I haven't found you yet. Or you haven't found me yet. It's by grace that we will find each other at the right time.

In the meantime, I hope you are having a great time without me in your life yet. I am.

But the best is yet to come. =)

Hugging

Imagine a page on hugging. It's here: http://www.gagirl.com/hugs/hug.html.

I remember a 76-year-old remarkable widow telling me something like this while we were on a train in Singapore:

‎"Hugging is good medicine.
It transfers energy and gives the person hugged an emotional lift.
You need 4 hugs a day for survival, 8 for maintenance, and 12 for growth.
Scientists say that hugging is a form of communication because it can say things you don't have the words for.
And the nicest thing about a hug is that you usually can't give one without getting one."

And she said that hugging has become a habit in her household. It's amazing to hear idealism from the old ones.

Oh, but I should be thankful that I get one tight hug everyday at the office! Thanks to Miss Susan, our office mother.

And! An officemate just promised that he'll paint me something I can display in my tiny flat! I suggested it to be an image of a playful kid. Looking forward to that! =) 

Life

Officemates just left. Model doesn't converge after countless trials.

Why is life just more difficult for me??? A colleague from another department jokingly asked if "my balat ba ako sa pwet" after she encountered problems with her simulations while I'm consulting with her.

Tsk tsk...

So to appease myself, I visited Facebook and browsed through "my friends'" wall posts.

Some posts that I actually "liked":
Don't allow your wounds to transform you into someone you are not. (True. But easier said than done; nonetheless, should remain true.)
And this:
True and true. In two aspects of my life right now.

And beat this:


The best way to end a conversation on Facebook is to like someone's last comment.


Hahahaha!!! Guilty.


Which reminds me, I have to meet the guy who posted the last one. He's a Jesuit priest based at the Ateneo who is a relative of the husband of my father's sister. Just imagine the link.


Now, back to work. And I will never get a lovelife for this! But I remain hopeful. At the right time.

Kanlungan (PANA-PANAHON) by: noel cabangon

Lil bro is nervous for his job interview

Well, he's no longer my little brother. He's gotten much taller than me and sometimes, knows more about life than I do. And he's got an appointment with a multinational firm! Hope he gets a chance in this. I would like him to be in sales or in trading though.

More power. God bless you dear!
