What happened from October 18, 2006 to October 30, 2008?

What happened from October 18, 2006 to October 30, 2008?

It’s been two years, since the last time I posted a blog here. I didn’t realize how busy I was from the time when I work as call center agent. There are so many things happened during that period, now I am not certain whether I can still manage to share something about myself or experiences in life. When I review my old post entitled Book of “FAITH”, brought me a deeper faith…, I realized that it was a different me then. Dati wala kong self confidence sa pagaapply para sa call center job, but now eto nag bi-build ng rapport sa mga American customer while troubleshooting a technical problem as per my friend and co agent, Mitch. For two years, I’ve been a loyal employee of NCO because they are the ones who had given me a chance to learn, share and grow. I think it’s not a good idea to say specifically what happened to me in two years. All I can say is I improved as a better person.

Therefore, I’ll just share some events happened here in the Philippines from October 2006 to October 2008. (Excerpt from Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_in_the_Philippines;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_in_the_Philippines;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_in_the_Philippines)

Hair Troubled

I just post these pictures below, for you to see the different hairdoes or haircuts I had lately. So, which looks better on me o "bagay sa kin"? A, B, C, D or E (None of the choices)…

      

            A    Image006                  B  Image130                      CImage195_5                       D  Image200                   E4_season_2

 

          

                

(click each photos to see clearly)                                                                          

For me, I wish my hair would grow faster and better but it’s a Iong way to run! Hay! I want to get back my long curly hair.

So girls, before you make a decision to go to a salon (especially sa tabi-tabi at gilid-gilid lang) for a haircut, think not only twice para di kayo magsisi sa huli like what happened to me. Everyday is a bad hair day for me.

Kaya, eto po ang "Thought for the Day" ko… "AANHIN PA ANG DAMO PAG PATAY NA ANG KABAYO"…

ooops… eto pla ang appropriate quote and moral lesson "NASA HULI ANG PAGSISISI!" Ouch!

That’s all vow…

Teddy from Hubby

Image176_3 I celebrated my 26th birthday last Thursday, October 5, 2006. That day, was my 2nd first day for work at Ateneo. It’s a blessing for me though.

Know what guys medyo tinotopak ko that day because it seems like a regular day. Even though my husband went home early to give me a big hug and kisses and consider himself as a birthday present, I feel little insecure because I expected for a more surprise like flowers, chocolates, or cake and spaghetti for a family gathering. Ewan ko ba why I keep acting like an immature girlfriend. Anyway, we settled the petty fight afterwards. We just went out for a dinner and bought a roll of cake.

Image177_6Image179 Moreover, just yesterday, my husband called me over my mobile to invite me for a date in the mall. When we are heading to the food court to take a lunch, he led me to the escalator going down that is near to the stuff toy stores. Of course, I am fond of teddy bears so I caught an eye to cute and cuddly bears. He told me that I can get one as his birthday present for me.  So here I go, picked the look alike of the big clever bear on a cable TV show, “Bear in the Big Blue House.”

Then, after going to his appointment at a medical clinic, we went to WOF for our favorite KTV bonding. Sweet!Image162Image161_2

The Boar and the Bear in Action! Cute!

Minsan gusto ko na maniwala na mahirap intindihin or spellingin ang mga babae. I see myself as an example! He he! Sorry po Pa, Aaron! I’ll try to lessen my topaks! Thanks for a Image164_1Image163“belated birthday” surprise! I love you!

Plus… plus… plus…

Thanks to everyone who greeted me on my birthday. Thank you Ms. Teya for the pink shoal (tama ba spelling ko!) I really love it. To Charina my baklitang friend, for the mug, it is really right for me pati yung nakadrawing parang ako yun hah! I appreciate you all!

“Back” Office Queen

Posted on by thyra-snow05.
Categories: Uncategorized.

Image145 I really should’ve only said “Thank you. See you again guys!” to my beloved officemates at ADMU after making a quick and unwise decision to work back with my former employer, let’s call it XYZ Co. Actually, what made me decide to turn down for another contract with ADMU is because of the attractive offer of XYZ Co. even it is a project base work. So, without knowing the “full” condition of the second party’s project, I gave up my job at ADMU. I reported for work at XYZ Co. for one day but quit on that same day. Anyway, I don’t want to talk about it anymore but I really regret for what I almost lost… my nice officemates who have been my friends and family at work, the Ateneo campus ground as well as my way going to the office (UP campus and Katipunan Avenue, kulet! I’ve mentioned this on my last blog post tsk… tsk… redundant!) that makes me unwind, and 2 days salary.

I thought I would end up being jobless again. Fortunately, my boss from ADMU hasn’t found yet a new one for my replacement. I thank the people from my department for giving me another chance to work again with them especially to Ma’am Hilds and Sir Ef. At least, I celebrated my birthday with my officemates at Ateneo, they had given me a warm birthday and welcome back greetings!

Because of this, I remember the parable/story of the Prodigal Son from the bible at Luke 15.11-32, medyo nakarelate me! If you haven’t read it, well please open your bible!

To CLEO, MAY and WALLY plus the others

It’s hard to say farewell to someone who you’ve been closed or together even for a short period of time.

I’m talking about my officemates at ADMU who I’ve been comfortably worked with for three (3) weeks. It’s a once in a lifetime chance to feel happy and contented with your job because of the environment and people around you. I would say that working at ADMU particularly in our Department is one of the unforgetful experience I ever had on my entire working period though this was a project base work. People there from boss down to staffs are fair and kind. Their treatment to everyone are equal with no descrimination at all. I am thankful that God sent me there to meet them and step on the Ateneo Campus ground he he relaxing! It’s just I have to make a decision that would be a help not for myself but for my family. I rather say "Thank you, See you again guys!" than "Goodbye!". I will surely miss our bonding and teamwork reparips pare!

Here’s how I describe my 3 team buds, Cleo, May and Wally:

Cleo, makulet, masiyahin, chicka opener, masipag maglakad from Katipunan to Ateneo every morning malamang kuripot o nagtitipid pang skolar ng high school stud na crush nya. he he! matagal na pagiipon pa yan dude! joke!

Image157

 

"Alis na ate Ruth!"

                

           

Cleo!

May, laging nakangiti parang walang kamuang muang sa mundo o wlang problema. Eto ang acting TL, master DJ, directory assistant ng ADMU listing at water observer, kamukha pa ni Chanda Romero sa ID pic nya he he! Thanks sa pagbitbit ng bibingka.

Image153_1

"May tatlong bear sa loob ng bahay, si Mama Bear, si Papa Bear at si Baby Bear!"

May, Wally and Cleo

Wally, moody minsan serious, minsan makwento. Mr. Info parang Wikipedia. Updated sa news at tsismis around. Love interest ni Cleo at May sa office lang naman! joke lang! har har!

"Copy, Paste and Edit Team"

               

Us!

I also gonna miss listnening our national anthem (played every the day starts and ends), KAPALARAN, makulay na buhay:

Makulay na Buhay
Kitchie Nadal

unti-unting napag-iiwanan ng panahon
sa aking paglalakbay
mula hilaga, timong, kanluran
naging kasabayan lamang tatlong hari ng silangan

inamin naramdaman, inamin pati kahit ‘di ko kasalanan
saksi ang kalangitan
baliw man o martir ang itawag mo
sa paso ng pag-ibig ko’y ‘di madadala

kapalaran na ika’y matagpuan
taglay mo ang liwanag sa makulay na buhay
kapalaran na ika’y matagpuan
taglay mo ang liwanag sa makulay na buhay

unti-unting napag-iiwanan ng panahon
sa aking paglalakbay
mula hilaga, timong, kanluran
naging kasabayan lamang tatlong hari ng silangan

kapalaran na ika’y matagpuan
taglay mo ang liwanag sa makulay na buhay
kapalaran na ika’y matagpuan
taglay mo ang liwanag sa makulay na buhay

hangad ko ay hindi mag-paawa o patawarin ka
sa buhay na daig pa ang telenobela

kapalaran na ika’y matagpuan
taglay mo ang liwanag sa makulay na buhay
kapalaran na ika’y matagpuan
taglay mo ang liwanag sa makulay na buhay

Will miss you OU/DAR buds!

Book of “FAITH”, brought me a deeper faith…

Posted on August 12, 2006 by thyra-snow05.
Categories: Uncategorized.

Recently, I saw a book in our rack, which I ignored for a time. I should have read it but my laziness always comes on my way. If you have already seen on my profile you would probably noticed that I only like reading health and wellness, and fashion articles. Well In fact, I don’t really have an interest in reading books (except for the Bible) because I get bored and sleepy even when I just turned the first page.

Not until, I read the book entitled “Faith”. I was amazed of what the author, Norman Vincent Peale, delivers through this book and his other writings. He is said who authored the best selling inspirational / self-help book “The Power of Positive Thinking” which was called before as “The Power of Faith”.

Pic61_1

Pic62_1

In his daughter’s foreword, “… my father valued no message more than that of the importance of faith in each of our lives.” This line encouraged me to know what faith is and what it can be done in my life.

“Faith is the most powerful of all forces operating in humanity, and when you have it in depth, nothing can get you down. Nothing.” – Norman Vincent Peale

I would like to share you a story that Peale told in this book. It inspired me to have a deeper faith and self-confidence. I hope for those who are fond of worrying and lacking faith, this would also touch your lives.

(*Excerpt from “Faith” by Norman Vincent Peale)

“… A friend of mine once lost a job He had a wife and two children. I thought I would comfort him, so I took him out to lunch and said, “I will be glad to help you in any way I can.”

“I do not need your help,” he replied. “I can handle this problem.”

“Who is helping you?” I asked.

“God is helping me,” he replied. “There is a job for me. I can see it in my mind’s eye.” His friend gave him the exact specifications of the job he wanted.

“You have a wife and two children – how much money do you have in the bank? Have you saved any money?”

“Not much.”

“Are you interviewing potential employers?”

“Yes. I see about five people a day, and I get turned down five times a day.”

“Doesn’t that bother you?”

“No. I realize that I have to be turned down so many times to get this job. I do not know how many times I have to be turned down. But I know if I am turned down five times a day, that is five fewer times I have to be turned down to get the job. And I will be turned down four or five times tomorrow, four or five times the next day. It may continue a month, two months, three months, but the process just eliminates them. The ‘no’s’ are all behind me and I will get nearer to the person who will say to me, ‘Yes, here’s your job.’”

One day, my unemployed friend walked into an office and described to the person there the job he wanted. The man said, “The job is here waiting for you. Where have you been?”

Later I saw this friend at a convention where I was to speak. He was the presiding officer during part of the meeting. I asked him, “Where did you get such ideas as that, anyway?”

And this is what he said: “I got it from the Bible. It tells us if you have faith, believe in yourself and in God, and know where you want to go, and then picture it and put it in God’s hands, asking if it is His will, you will get God’s help and you cannot fail.”

‘If there is still in your mind the idea that you cannot do something, the reason you do not accomplish it is because you are thinking negatively Start believing, start having faith And presently you will attain results. It is not by identifying yourself with failure, but by identifying yourself with success, that success and not failure comes to you.’”

A few days before I read this book, I just started to write an article which I supposed to publish in this blog. This is regarding my fear of trying and being rejected for a job application in call centers. Read the passage below, you will see that I haven’t finished it. That’s because of the miracle happened to my life brought to me by God. He used the book of Normal Vincent Peale, “Faith” as an instrument for me to have confidence and change into a better person.


How can I overcome my fears?

I suppose to hunt for a job today… the other day… last week… last month. I’m not sure how long would I say “I suppose to apply today” and how long I would be unemployed. I am becoming a liar, deceitful or someone who doesn’t stick with one word. Worst case, others may think that I am lazy and useless.

The only explanation behind this which keeps me from backing off is that “I am afraid to be rejected”. I am not confident of my communication skills, this makes me feel inferior. I could say that I have the courage to apply in a regular office job where it’s not a requirement to speak English fluently. Moreover, I’m comfortable doing admin office task because It’s been my specialty since I graduated college. I’ve been working from several local companies as an Office Staff/Encoder.  The reason why I have to shift career option is because all of those were contractual basis—unstable, low paying job and less chance for growth. So I choose (not wholeheartedly) to work “again” in a call center for a better career and future too.

Two years ago, I remembered the time that I was applying for a customer service representative or call center agent position. I have so many experiences being rejected which lead me almost to quit. Until later, I got the chance to be qualified as trainee/agent in two call centers, one in Makati and the other in Ortigas. That time I felt overwhelmed, I got two jobs to choose. I ask my relatives and friends on what to choose between the two. Although, I was already attending my Communication Skills training in Makati under an exclusive Professional School, I decided to move in the call center in Ortigas. I don’t know if I made a wrong decision. I only last in that call center for a month because I was fed up of pressures of handling outbound calls and of our supervisors who always yell at us every after shift. Plus I didn’t expect that we will handle Filipino customers in US. So how can I be trained for English communication skills? I felt demoralized and discouraged that time.

Maybe, this is also one reason why I’ve lost my interest and high spirit to work in a call center. After that, I decided to go back working in a regular office job, regular office schedule.

Though, as I said earlier, I have to move into other career for a better living. I need to help my family and my husband in our daily expenses. Especially this time, our financial problem came out.

                                                               –


Now, I became stronger and confident. I started to apply for a call center job last week. Though I have to be turned down for how many times it wouldn’t make me feel inferior and say “I cannot do it” and “I quit”. I tried Peale’s advices which he had told to a man who asked him how to get more confidence — and it works with me.

(*Excerpt from “Faith” by Norman Vincent Peale)

“… there are two things you should do. You need counseling to help you learn why you have this deep inferiority feeling. But,” I said, “you also need some first-aid things to pull you through this present emergency. I’ll give you a couple of those right now. Let’s stand up. I can’t give you these in a slumped condition.”

“Now,” I said, “repeat after me these words: ‘I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO GIVES ME THE STRENGTH.’ and – ‘IF GOD BE FOR US (ME), WHO CAN BE AGAINST US (ME)?’ –

I got him to repeat it several times. I wrote out on a card for him. I told him, “Now keep thinking this great thought Think it as you leave this place and walk down the street. Think it when you get up tomorrow morning. Then go to your appointment in a relaxed manner and tell that man honestly why you think what you have to sell is something he needs.”

And then he says:

When you are honest and real and whole, then you have normal courage and normal self-confidence. This is the secret of courage and self-confidence: LET GOD HELP YOU TO BE YOURSELF.

I hope this will inspire you and other people. Believe in God, Jesus Christ. He is there to guide and provide us our needs. Let Him plan for our lives, because He knows what’s right and best for us. Pray and have faith!

If you have faith “nothing shall be impossible.”

Sharing My Music

Don’t you know that I love music? he he…

Back in Highschool I used to copy songs from several songhits to a thick notebook. I just look at it and sing one or three songs to relieve me from stress and boredom. It also became my way to get close with my classmates then. Actually, they have known me as "hiraman ng songbook".

In Mornings, as soon as I woke up , I was playing The Carpenters and Bread on our cassette player walang patid! Then in college when Spicegirls, Backstreet Boys, 911 and other boybands had appeared I was watching their videos at MTV. That time I had a crush with Nick Carter and Baby Spice! Cute!

Even at night, I couldn’t sleep if the radio wasn’t on, my sister and I was always stay tuning at KOOL 106 or Mellow Touch till dawn. That’s why I got familiar with couple of love and pop songs and its singers. Challenge me!

There was a time that i joined in a phone-liner club for a non-sense reason, to have a voice mailbox. When I luckily got one, I started my own radio station with my friend, Leslie Ma-L/Obsession that we later named as Music Hotline 2.29. We played as discjockeys and grants some songs requested by our listeners. Worst case scenario, when we felt like singing, we were singing M2M songs like Pretty Boy, Mirror Mirror, Everything You Do, Mirror and all with a dialogue in the intro "Got M2M here as in Maloko (Me) at Malambing…" I don’t know how come that we still have the face to show off..

Oh, that old days!

Now I became worst, I got loud! I go to videoke or KTV bar along with my hubby to show my inner diva!

So, here are some songs which I like to hear over and over again. I sometimes sing these songs in videoke though I don’t have the voice which I can be proud of. But music is for everybody, kahit bata o matanda, mahirap o mayaman, sintonado o magaling bumirit. Alin kaya ko doon? he he…

Now, its DJ Arbie sharing you my music. SIGNING ON…

IF I’M NOT IN LOVE
by Kathy Tracolli

If I’m not in love with you
What is this I’m going through, tonight
And if my heart is lying then
What should I believe in
Why do I go crazy
Every time I think about you, baby
Why else do I want you like I do
If I’m not in love with you

And if I don’t need your touch
Why do I miss you so much, tonight
If it’s just infatuation
Then why is my heart achin’
To hold you forever
Give a part of me I thought I’d never
Give again to someone I could lose
If I’m not in love with you

Oh, why in every fantasy
Do I feel your arms embracing me
Like lovers lost in sweet desire
Oh, why in dreams do I surrender
Like a little baby
Someone help explain this feeling
Someone tell me

If I’m not in love with you
What is this I’m going through, tonight
And if my heart is lying then
What should I believe in
Why do I go crazy
Every time I think about you, baby
Why else do I want you like I do
If I’m not in love with you…

TILL THEY TAKE MY HEART AWAY
Clair Marlo

I look into your eyes, so far away
There’s trouble on your mind
You’re losing faith
Hey now, let me hold you
It’ll be okay!
Coz I will love you
Till they take my heart away.

Remember when you called
And said goodbye
We thought we’d lost it all
And so did I
Even if I lost you
I would feel the same
Coz I will love you
Till they take my heart away.

Believe in me
I’m here to stay
I will love you
Till they take my heart away.

Now we’re stronger than before
We’ve made it throught
I never felt more sure
Because of you
Hey now! Are you listening?
Do you hear me say
"I will love you
Till they take my heart away"

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

THROUGH THE FIRE
by Chaka Chan

I look in your eyes and I can see
We’ve loved so dangerously
You’re not trusting your heart to anyone
You tell me you’re gonna play it smart
We’re through before we start
But I believe that we’ve only just begun

When it’s this good, there’s no saying no
I want you so, I’m ready to go

CHORUS:
Through the fire
To the limit, to the wall
For a chance to be with you
I’d gladly risk it all
Through the fire
Through whatever, come what may
For a chance at loving you
I’d take it all the way
Right down to the wire
Even through the fire

I know you’re afraid of what you feel
You still need time to heal
And I can help if you’ll only let me try
You touch me and something in me knew
What I could have with you
Well I’m not ready to kiss that dream goodbye

When it’s this sweet, there’s no saying no
I need you so, I’m ready to go

CHORUS

Through the test of time

CHORUS

Through the fire, to the limit
Through the fire, through whatever
Through the fire, to the limit
Through the fire, through whatever

FOOLISH HEART
by Steve Perry

I need a love that grows
I don’t want it unless I know
But with each passin hour
Someone, somehow
Will be there, ready to share

I need a love that’s strong
I’m so tired of being alone
But will my lonely heart
Play the part
Of the fool again, before I begin

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You’ve been wrong before
Don’t be wrong anymore

I’m feelin that feelin again
I’ve been playin a game I can’t win
Love’s knockin on the door
Of my heart once more
Think I’ll let him in
Before I begin

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before, you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You’ve been wrong before
Don’t be wrong anymore
Foolish heart
Foolish, foolish heart
You’ve been wrong before

Foolish heart, hear me calling
Stop before you start falling
Foolish heart, heed my warning
You’ve been wrong before
Don’t be wrong anymore
Foolish heart

Oh foolish
foolish heart
You’ve been wrong before

Foolish
foolish heart
Foolish heart

I’VE FALLEN FOR YOU
Jaime Rivera

(right-click on BACK above to control playback functions)

What is this i’m feelin’
I just can’t explain
When you’re near,
I’m not the same.
I’m tryin’ to hide it,
Try not to show it.
It’s crazy
how could it be

CHORUS
I’ve fallen for you
Finally, my heart gave in
And i’m fallen in love
I fin’lly know
How it feels

When you said hello,
I looked in your eyes.
Suddenly, I felt good inside.
Is this really happ’nin?
Or am I just dreaming?
I guess, it’s true.
I can’t believe

I’ve fallen for you
Finally, my heart gave in.
And I’m fallen in love
I fin’lly know how it feels
So this is love…

Doesn’t matter where I am,
Thoughts of you still linger in my mind
No matter what time of day
I’ve really, really
Fallen for you…

I’ve fallen for you Finally, my heart gave in.
And I’m fallen in love
I fin’lly know how it feels
So this is love..

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I’LL BE OVER YOU
Toto

Some people live their dreams
some people close their eyes
some people’s destiny passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That’s how our love must be
Don’t ask why

It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can’t forget you

CHORUS
As soon as my heart stops breakin
and tears are fading
soon as forever is through
I’ll be over you

Remembering times gone by
promises we once made
what are the reasons why
nothing stays the same

There were the nights
holding you close
Someday I’ll try to forget you

REPEAT CHORUS
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

REFLECTION
Christina Aguilera

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you’ll never know me
Every day
It’s as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What’s inside my heart
And be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don’t know?
Must I pretend that I’m
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

There’s a heart that must be
Free to fly
That burns with a need to know
The reason why

Why must we all conceal
What we think, how we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I’m forced to hide?
I won’t pretend that I’m
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I’D STILL SAY YES
Klymaxx

I love you most, when we share a place of

special good times together
It seems like our love can’t get much better,

no
‘Cause we were as close as two could be
We knew love could last forever
We’re more than just lovers, we’re good

friends
And even if our love could drift away, I

wouldn’t even think twice
If I wanted love back again

Chorus:
Because I’d still say yes to you again
My darling for you, I’d do it all again
Yes I’d still say yes to you again
Darling for you, I’d do it over and over again

Where does it go, how does it end
True love seems so easy
‘Cause we have no doubts where we belong

(Where we belong)
They say time can heal a broken heart
But true love never ends
So why not start where we began

{Chorus}

They say time can heal a broken heart
But true love never ends
So why not start where we began

{Chorus}

Say yes
Say yes, to you again
My darling for you, I’d do it over and over

again

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I MISS YOU
Klymaxx

I thought I heard your voice yesterday
When I turned around to say
That I loved you than I realized
And it was just my mind
Playing tricks on me
It seems colder lately at night
And I try to sleep with the lights on
Everytime when the phone rings
I pray to God it’s you
I just can`t believe
That we`re thought

I miss you
There`s no other way to say it
And I, and I can deny it
I miss you
It`s so easy to see

I miss you and me
Is it done and over this time?
Have we really changed our minds
But it’s other’s love
All the feelings that we used to share
I refused to believe
That you don’t care

I’ve got together my senses to get there
I’ve been through worse kinds of weather
If it’s over now, be strong
Can’t believe that you’re gone
I got carry over

That you`re part of me now..

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

SOMEWHERE IN MY PAST
by Julie Vega

I met you just tonight
But I keep wondrin why
It seems I’ve always known you all my life

You held me only once
But I keep wondrin why
It seems youve held me forever

Can it be true?
Could I be wrong ?
That somewhere in my past
I fell in love with you

Can it be true?
Could I be wrong?
That’s somewhere in my past
There was also me and you

You’ve kissed me only once
But I keep wondrin why
It seems you’ve kissed my lips so many

times

I met you just tonight
But I keep wondrin why
It seems I’ve known you forever

Somewhere, Forever

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

DON’T SAY YOU LOVE ME
by M2M

Got introduced to you by a friend
You were cute and all that
Baby, you set the trend
Yes, you did, oh
The next thing I know, we’re down at the

cinema
We’re sittin’ there, you said you love me
What’s that about?

You’re movin’ too fast; I don’t understand

you
I’m not ready yet
Baby, I can’t pretend
No, I can’t
The best I can do is tell you to talk to me
It’s possible, eventual
Love will find a way
(Love will find a way)

[Chorus:]
Don’t say you love me
You don’t even know me
If you really want me
Then give me some time
Don’t go there, baby
Not before I’m ready
Don’t say your heart’s in a hurry
It’s not like we’re gonna get married
Give me, give me some time

Here’s how I play, here’s where you stand
Here’s what to prove
To get any further than where it’s been
I’ll make it clear; not gonna tell you twice
Take it slow; you keep pushing me
You’re pushing me away
(Pushing me away)

[Repeat chorus]

(Oh, oh, oh)
Na, na, na-na, na, na na
Na, na, na-na, na, na na
(Oh, oh, oh)
Na, na, na-na, na, na na
Na, na, na-na, na, na na

Don’t say you love me
You don’t even know me, baby

(Baby, don’t say you love me)
Don’t say you love me
You don’t even know me
(Hey, baby)
If you really want me
Then give me some time
(Give me some time)

[Repeat chorus until fade]

Diary 101

Posted on May 23, 2006 by thyra-snow05.

Wow, it’s been a long time since I made my last post for this blog. I just thought to write some things here about what happened (to me) during the past few months.

Let me fill some space to share you my experiences. I hope I could still remember it all but I’ll try…

So, my last post was on February 19, 2006. Let me start with…

February 25, 2006 our Baguio Valentine’s Trip. My Hubby, Aaron surprised me for a Valentine’s Vacation. Remember my post about our Valentine’s Day when I expected to have an actual surprise (of course, I’m just a girl who still get excited of surprises from their love one) but I got nothing even a single piece of a rose. Anyway, I recieve too much of what I expected a dozen of pink roses frsh from Baguio. Heyeah! Plus, the fact that he brought me in a City of flowers with perfect timing of Penagbenga or "Flower Festival" celebration. Sweet!

March 2, 2006 my end of contract with  KFC.  After my 5 months stay at KFC HR Dept. where I experienced working with new task and meeting with competitive people, here I am now… jobless. Maybe, I’ll talk about it later. I’m confused.

March 3, 2006 I started my long time vacation. At last i got an absolute rest far away either from a stressful encoding of surveys or long heating of my seat. I finally got some time to spend with my husband.

March 27, 2006 I tried my luck at Convergys. After my almost 4 weeks vacation, I was disturbed by a phone call from the HR Dept of Convergys, for an interview invitation. So i showed up! Unfortunately during the initial interview I wasn’t in the mood (it seems I still long for more vacation that’s what he he) so I shake, rattle and roll! Of course what’s the ending of the story… I FAILED! Complete with a remembrance letter saying "thank you for your interest in applying blah blah blah…"!

March 27, 2006 That made me trigger!.  The same day. I invited my co-applicant from Convergys to go to Ortigas. Our feet walked in to TRG… We arrived at Hanston Bldg. around 1PM, we waited for 1, 2 , 3 minutes till it turned into 1 hour. I was little nervous when my name called by a spanish or caucasian looking guy… it was my turn to prove something in front of the interviewer along with 2 other applicants. The interviewer first asked the ever popular question "TELL SOMETHING ABOUT YOURSELF?" so I answered quickly, brieftly and concise. The 2nd applicant said a long long story about her career, achievements and experiences including her amazing role as a attendance holder or receptionist for the sea games held early this year at Amoranto — though she’s really good in speaking english. While the 3rd one was a simple and shy fresh grad, she made it even she has no working experience to share.

The interview then asked a ala beauty pageant question. The question was "IF YOU HAVE 3 WISHES, WHAT WOULD IT BE?" Actually I never thought it before. So I simply answered 1st Peace on Earth (Sounds like a real beauty queen!), 2nd to get a stable job and lastly 3rd, to help more my family.

Unexpectedly, I PASSED! With a remembrance letter as well. Though this time a Congratulations note and invitation for IQ Test was written on it!

(* I changed my mind, so i didn’t come for the exam the next day)

April 10, 2006 my nephew’s birthday. Just went in our house in Marikina, to celebrate my nephew’s (JOSH) 2nd birthday. What did you expect me to do? Of course… ate till I dropped!

April 12, 2006 my late father’s birthday. Actually I wasn’t able to visit his tomb. My family just lighted some candles in our house in Marikina.

June 23, 2006 It’s our 1st Wedding Anniversary. It was a sunny day, everything was doing well. My husband and I went to Puerto Galera to celebrate our First Wedding Anniversary. It was also my first time to go to Galera so I was kinda really excited.

On our first day, we just took a rest so we could regain "energy" after a 4 hour trip from Manila to Mindoro.

The next day, Aaron woke me up by 4:30 in the morning for his extraordinary surprise! A walk to remember! Yawn!!! We walked along the beach along a stray dog … (well he just followed us) then reminisce about our past but fresh memories. Isn’t it romantic! he he! After few hours we swimmed till our skin get burned ouch! Then Gimick at nights.

Ok so much to tell, after our 2 nights and 3 days stay we supposed to go home that Sunday. Unluckily, all the boat trips were cancelled due to a signal 2 typhoon and that’s why we got stranded.

We almost panicked because there’s no ATM machines which we could’ve withdrawn money. We only have P1, 200 in our pockets. Then we pay 700 to the hotel/inn for our extension stay (salamat sa discount!) so we got a remaining cash of P500. We got desperate, thinking of some plans and solutions for our survival. To the point we planned to move in another island (Sabang) just to ride a boat the for next day otherwise we would sell our cellphones to live for the next coming days if we still get stucked in that resort. Tell you what, after our bonggacious days and nights,  that evening we just ate 1 barbecue on stick and 1 cup of rice each.

Thank God! The next day we were glad that we arrived home… safe and sound. Even though, we rode a full loaded boat (unauthorized trip) and traveled accross a rough deep blue sea. This is one of my memorable experience! Suspense with thrill!

June 24, 2006–July 30, 2006. I don’t know where I have been.

August 4, 2006 I’ve started to apply for a job… again. After I’ve been reading the book entitled “Faith” by Norman Vincent Peale at last, I got inspired and have the high spirit to apply again in call centers. I’ve started to pass my resume on line and in-person at Libis. I was interviewed in some call centers, but have no feedbacks yet. Anyway, even if I have to be rejected for a couple times, still I would try and try then learn from it. I know time will come that I would finally get the job where I am belong to. Kelan kaya yun? He he…

To be contiued…
