Crazy

Been reading while not having 'nuf sleep lately.

I've been hearing so much about the movie Twilight. Out of curiosity when I got a chance to stop and pass through every National Bookstore I happened to always asked for this Book and it was out of stock-like-crazy everywhere. And one night before the mall closes I have decided to dropped by before going to my Grandmas wake since I'm pretty much sure I'm not gonna be able to sleep again, and I was right by the way. So, I went to "fully booked". As soon as I entered the black shinny hard bound book from Stephanie Meyer was on the first table and it looks like it was the last piece available.I was contemplating on buying it because I haven't read any yet from that author. So, I asked the sales lady " Is this the last one?" she said yes. She started to open her mouth again and said "Sir kung ako bibilhin ko na yan kasi next year pa ulit mag babagsak nyan" So i grabbed it and say bye-bye to my 699 pesos.

I haven't finished reading yet, I'm on Chapter 10. My goal is to finish the book asap and watch the movie. So far, I don't like it but I appreciate the idea of Vampire-Human relationship mortal non mortal love interest kinda stuff yadah yadah.Actually I bought the next sequel already and yes as I mentioned earlier don't like the book but I have the next part (lol) ...You know I'm crazy and I always will!

Ayt, so much for this stupid blogging got to go back to the book

An Open Letter to My GrandMa

Dear Mamajeng,

I know you'll not be able to read this anymore and it's too late to write a letter to you. But as a tribute I would like to write to you and say few things how you have lived your life.

I would like to apologize for not being there with you when you needed me the most. Thanks for being so proud of me. Thanks for taking care of me when I was a baby while Mama and Papa are busy working and still adjusting to their new family life uncertainty. I will miss you cleaning my ears in the morning until I fall asleep on your lap again and when I woke up I have my favorite champurado and longanisa on the table. You want everything done in your hands for us. foods..laundry...care..It's all for your love. I have many things to remember that I will surely tell to my future children about you.

I'm sorry because I haven't seen you yet on your wake. I don't think I can. I promise I'll try my best to come this weekend. You know I'm planing to treat you on your birthday this December because I'll be having my very first car and I want you to see it. I know it's too late now.

Please say hi to Papajeng for me tell him I miss him too. I will miss you. May you rest in peace.

I love you...

Always,
Jepoy

Day Dreaming...

I'm really really starving right now!

I want food! food that is really really bad for me :-D

Right now I'm missing all American food. It's really different when you eat the local food at their local place versus eating it elsewhere, a good example of that are the fast food here i.e. burger king, Fridays, et al.

I want this food again. Mouth watery burger from Fridays top with bacon and cheese. Plus the mash potato yummy! It Taste really different perhaps for me..And the all time favorite spare ribs awww! God I'm hungry!

Also the chilly buffalo chicken wings from hooters! raining oil here.

and how can I forget my all time favorite everyday burger! Burger king!!!!!!!

and pizzaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I think I need to wake up. I am day dreaming again. But can't help it. I'm hearing my stomach grumbling. He's hungry again. what's new?!

Happy weekend bloggers!

My Weekend

After so and so years, alas! I once again saw my spiritual kids back in college. It was really fun catching up with them.

I had a cell group back then.It's kinda fulfilling knowing that while I was at school learning, I am also making a difference in the life of some people. So here are some shots from Red Crabs at Greenbelt...


yum yum red crabs


sugar time !




So, that was my weekend with my Cell group (modee,mitch,tin and her bf)

Talking about emo this Crhistmas

I'm a bit frustrated right now...

why?

I will have to work on Christmas eve and New Years eve.

While every single Filipino family celebrates the most awaited season of the year at home or elsewhere here I am working

One of the most important filipino culture is the family bond. It doesn't matter if they are rich or poor...No "Noche Buena" or "Buena de Noche" food on the table...No fireworks..No Christmas gifts..No fancy Christmas party celebration... So long as their family is complete during this time of the year, they'll be the happiest people in the world. While the pinoys are celebrating Jeff is working...

Worst is I work night shift. And since I'm working in an American based company, every single holiday in here is not holiday at all for us (if it falls on weekdays) and if it's holiday in US it's still not a holiday for us in Manila and this only applies to Technical Support Engineers here, all others follows Manila holiday, which means the rest will have the opportunity to celebrate this time of the year with their love ones.

You might ask, there's this so called Leave right?! the answer is yes BUT only 2 people can file a leave in a day and we are 7, I'm not included on the privileged two. And I'm not a cheater to use sick leave on to get the Christmas and New years off and besides it's so obvious that someones making it up.

Honestly I've been saving all my leaves just for this season, apparently everyone does, so guess what?! we can't use them all at the same time. December 24 and 31 is Manila holiday and we are required to work. The reason why this bugs me this days is because I live alone in Manila, after shift I have no one at home *nadah*, now instead of gift giving to my god children I'm left alone at home with my mug of coffee. Also, this will be the first Christmas and New year that I am away from home since birth, technically! I think I need to make some changes into my wish list this coming Christmas *Sigh*

I remember watching 700 club last time, a pastor mentioned that the highest suicidal rate of the year is during Christmas season for the last 10 years and this is because of depression.Usually these are the people living alone even armed with wealth and fame, now I realized why.Mind you I am definitely not suicidal :-D just for the heck of mentioning it.

What adds up to my frustration is no one seems to care about this situation or to at least meet half way or some how see some effort in making this request possible, there was none. Defies the purpose of think customers.

Just two days! just two... I don't have absenteeism I rarely use my vacation leave. I just want the night of 24th and 31st of December. I can even report on the 25th night and the 1st of January night. Is that too much to ask? I will trade all my remaining vacation leave just give me the 24th and 31st *Sigh*

And who am I to complain? This is my bread and butter. This pays my rent. Provides med for my mom. Provides help to missionaries. Pays my bills. I'm just a small piece of sh*t in this corporate industry

I'll just sing Christmas carols on my workstation and light a fireworks on my lunch break to welcome new year...

I apologize for the angst. I need to write so the feeling will go away soon.

Anything goes..

I'm bored right now *Sigh*

Having trouble constructing the intertwine thoughts on my head...

*Sigh!*

I ate 3 doughnuts earlier Pineapple filled, Bavarian, mocha Swiss... It's so sweet. I just love the mouth watery feeling, it gives me unexplainable happiness...I wanted to have more but I controlled my self and put the box on the fridge...

*Sigh!*

Just finished Heroes latest episode and guess what???!!. Nathan's and Peter's Dad got Hiro's power Argggh! that ends the episode. I can't wait to see the next episode.

*Sigh*

I learned that writing here somehow removed my boredom. So, this is a great alternative instead of thinking things like why I am fat? How can I loose weight in 2 days? Is fit and right really effective? lol

I'm checking my belly button right now and the stinky smell has been healed *Happy* Now, it smells like baby powder like it used to be.

Rhianna and Chris Brown will have concert in Manila this weekend, too bad I don't have ticket, and because I'm saving money I will definitely miss the fun. I got one more chance though, I'll sneak in to Hassle's door and get her ticket while she's snoring *Grinning* lol

I want a book. I want something to read. I want it now! (demanding?)

'till my next post. Have a great day everyone. Thanks for dropping by to my none sense work :-D

Testify to Love

I have seen and experienced how Jesus saved me from eternal condemnation. I have come to understand the ultimate sacrifice He has done for me.I transformed to become a better Individual because of this Love. Love that is incomparable to all things seen in the earth. Now it's my turn to Testify this love.

I don't know how to express a feeling into writing without being chuchy and stuff. I'm not also playing holier-than-thou because I am definitely not. I guess what I'm talking about is my faith. I'm the person who I am because of this faith. I consider everything futile without knowing Christ.

And from here on I would like to Testify the Love... I guess this song would better explain what I would like to do until the day of my last breath.

Album: Testify to Love
Artist: Avalon

He's making a list Checking it twice... *Singing*

Do you feel the Spirit of Christmas? I do! this is my favorite season of the year. Everyone loves everybody, people always share what they have. Gifts are sent back and forth. Christmas Carols on radio.Cards flying on every corner of every country greeting friends and love ones "Merry Christmas". "Simbang Gabi" and the "bibingka and Puto bong-bong" (Filipino delicacies very much associated to Christmas Spirit)

OK enough of the cheesy part about Christmas. Let me go straight to the reason why I'm writing again. This is because I would like to post my Christmas Wish list here on my page. I wish I wish I wish...

DSLR Camera to capture a moment with quality and clarity. Tutal Uso naman ang photography ngayun sana pag bigyan nyo na ko *Grinning*


A Filipino Themed Adidas Jacket and the Francis M Filipino Shirt. I am a proud Filipino!!!


A western Digital External Hard drive. My notebooks internal hard drive is 80G only, so I guess I really need this specially when I have the DLSR cam :-D
Oakley Shades for my summer escapades come March and May. Calling friends from Canada and US mura lang dyan ipa ship na before Christmas :-D


Cool Water perfume. Thanks Debz for shipping this for me before Christmas. Got one 9 more to go :-D
Tap Out shirt. Ohlee wanted this and I kinda like this too

The Secret. This has been always out of stock from National Bookstore. I want this book. Feel free to give me one :-D


I think I really need this a Thread Mill. I promise to exercise more come next year
Hayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyz.. I really wanted a Honda car may it be 2000 or lower. It should be A/T. I will get this I promise!

A visit visa to Canada. See you soon Panget.


So all has been laid before the eyes of someone-who-read-this. I know I may not have them on Christmas day but still I wish I could still have them. One thing is for sure even though I wouldn't get any of that wish, Jepoy is thankful for all the blessings that Jesus gave him.
"Count your blessings Name them one by one and be grateful for it"

My Series of Hair Style Through the years...

I would like to share some of my hairdo style all through the years...I'm sure this is gonna be very much interesting.lol... Presenting my hair do since 1997 to present I guess...

First: Bangs look- Yes I have nag mumurang bangs because I can't afford to have a haircut in US, I got once lang yata sa wallmart. I got wavey hair, so it's hard to manage when it's growing plus it's kinda itchy when hair reaches my ears and chicks...

Hair cut courtesy of me. Yes i cut my own hair if it's really itchy and irritating already.

Second: Diamond hair style- Yes I like this haircut but I guess chamba lang ang pag kaka cut because no one can do this hair cut again not even the person who did it before Argggh..

Haircut courtesy of Davids Salon


Next is the Braid hair style: This was my boracay beach look.


Hairstyle courtesy of an 8 year old girl who do braid in the beach side for 180 php only. The process of doing this hurts my scalp but it was a fun experience...



Next is my semi long hair look. One year of no haircut with hair straightening and relax treatment
Hair treatment: Going straight

Another long hair look 2 years of no Hair Cut
Hair treatment Hot Oil ni manang sa kanto

last pic is the Afro hair style. Retro Christmas look from Dell. I'm not sure how to grow my hair this much and to look like this, really!
Wig Courtesy of Divisoria Wigs Outlet


I had semi kal and shaved hair look but I can't find some old pics of me *Sad* So those are my hairstyle yesterday and today.

Me and My big fat Tummy and family

Early morning picture capture last November 1 before going to cemetery in Cuyapo, Nueva Ecija, Moms province. Me and my big fat tummy!

Meet Mom and Sis. Dad is on vacation, not with us this Nov 1
lots of people visiting the cemetery. There were mountain dust all over us plus the heat of the sun in the foot of the mountain. Which reminds me of the long walk we had on smokey mountain of Tennessee, all these efforts in remembering my Mama Ester, 2 years after dying from breast cancer. I love you Mama Ester may you rest in peace.
