I am fulfilling my promise of blog hopping for this week.
And wow, I didn’t know I have such a long list of blogger friends! I haven’t even gotten to a quarter of my blogroll yet… Kapagod hahahah… I have been reading some interesting posts and have gathered quite a bit of ideas from you people.
More blogs to visit…
See you!
I was supposed to be on blog leave for a week. I am currently finishing ten books that I’ve marked for reading. Sounds geeky ano? Haha. I haven’t read a book for months because I am focused on these online revenue programs. But that’s not the only reason why I took a blog leave. I am also taking care of a personal matter. Good thing that personal matter’s already in Canada. Sad? Relieved? Can’t decide.
I visited some blogs today. I was supposed to post something tomorrow, on a different topic, but this blog inspired me to post something today and spread some love. BluePanjeet has “Sukob na” embedded in his blog. I’ve been playing the song over and over. It’s a song that makes me smile for the simple reason that it brings back good memories. And it brought back so many good ones. Especially that Saturday night I got sick. Hahaha… Can you see me smiling? 
BluePanjeet’s starting a Food for the Soul series of posts. So watch out for it. The photos of food (that will make you hungry, believe me) are taken from Dom Lawrence, OSB. Visit Brother Dom’s blog if you need some spiritual pep talks. Of course you can visit Br. Vince’s as well. Mas smiling face lang si brother Dom kay kuya (peace kuya!)
I would just like to tell everyone that my Alexa rank is improving each and every day. Thank you, Mousey! We contributed a little to the rank’s improvement. But it’s all 90% of her efforts paying off. Nakakahiya sa kanya. We’re all reaping the fruits of her hard work. And at the rate things are going, baka we’ll be in the top 100,000 come year-end. Yey! I will make it up to you, sister. Promise yan. Do check out her post about her weekend. It’s her hubby’s birthday this week so she’s really busy cleaning up the house for the upcoming celebration.
I changed my theme, obviously, and finally managed to organize my links. Please check if I linked u up and your link is correct. If not, please tell me and I apologize in advance. I will act on it immediately.
I can’t stop smiling.
Sukob na, halika na… sabay tayo sa payong ko… Yakap ka, kapit pa… Umulan, bumagyo magkasama tayo sa payong ko magkasama tayong dalawa…
Where is tatay?
Very clever shot. Tatay is hidden talaga. EB at Gerry’s Grill.
And look how serious we were on the first pic. Hahaha
Love u tatay! Miss u te melai! At ingat sa pagbalik dyan sa gitnang silangan pakner!

Yun lang 😉

Speaking of tatay…
I had a serious talk with my (biological) dad last night during dinner. I told him everything about my love-hate relationship with accounting. I told him how much I want to leave the corporate world and how much I want my life to be simple and stress-free. I told him that had it not for my mom, I would have taken up a different course, etc. etc.
He asked me what I’m doing every night and why I stay up late. I told him about my online life and all. I told him that I am planning to enroll this coming November and I will shift professions.
And guess what??
He said yes!
I love my dad!!!
Naiiyak ako while writing this down. It’s different when you’ve made a decision and your parent(s) is supporting it 100%. I know how much they (my parents, esp. my dad) want a CFO for a daughter. I can’t. I really can’t. I’m not cut out for it. I probably can but I don’t want to. I want to live a bit longer than my mom. I don’t want to die early and not do the things I want to do. And doing accounting for another 5 years or so will kill me. No exaggeration.
I always tell my siblings (when my dad’s fast asleep already) that they need to relieve me of all my duties (financial mostly) when I turn 30. That would be by next year, August 2008. I need to have some time for myself and I believe I should start when I reach the big 3-0. I will travel anywhere I want to, I will do things I dare not try to because I have responsibilities, I will go someplace else and get to know ME a bit more.
This is one of the happiest days of my life
Obviously, for those who’ve seen me already, I’m not a weight-conscious person. I am comfortable with who I am. I am confident that people won’t look at me physically, but would rather accept me for who I really am. Of course there are some people who will be different than the rest and I can’t help that anymore. I know for a fact that I can’t please everybody.
BUT there are times when I wish I am someone else. When insecurities would surface and make me want to be different from who I am.
He’s here right now. I just talked to him last night. APS… Hay… baket ngaun pa?? Hindi na lang sa 2008?? And I’ll see him this weekend. He wants to see me tomorrow night but I said sa weekend na lang.

Before I started with BlogtoProfit (BTOP), I was wary of online money-making programs because I was thinking that it might be a scam or something. Until I was told by the Devilicious Queen that some are legitimate and she’s already making money out of it. She referred me to BTOP and has since applied, got approved and enjoyed (and made money from) all the programs I am enrolled with.
A couple of days ago, I got an offer to do freelance work for another writer. It’s mostly article rewriting. I didn’t take the offer because I realized that I don’t have time for it anymore. I’m normally wasted (read: cranky and irritable) in the morning mainly because I am a night person and I stay up late (til around 2am) every night. Taking the offer would mean I probably need to stay awake until 3 or 4am to finish the work. I can’t afford that. I need to be at the office around 10am.
It’s not a lot of money actually but then it’s a start and it might translate to a long-term business relationship with the writer.
So now I am wishing that I have more time to blog and less time for accounting hehe

You might be thinking that I haven’t visited your blogs for a long time now and yes, it’s true. I was busy with my other blog, making money and all. I was also moody the past couple of days and I normally don’t comment on posts when I don’t feel like it. I gather it would be much better to stay put and not bloghop until my sanity comes back.
And a couple of hours from now it’ll come back
Happy Monday everyone! Payday weekend this coming Sat and Sun, yipee!!!
I am so lazy for the past 3 days now. I can’t think properly and I’m always craving for something sweet or salty. Yesterday, my lunch consisted of a chocolate bar. Last night, I was craving for Yakisoba. This morning, I was thinking of champorado with lots of milk. PMSy, I know.

I am very excited to watch Ocean’s Thirteen! I love George Clooney! And Matt Damon! It’s raining men in that movie! Hehehe… Who’d come with me ha?
I’m fine now. I slept almost the whole day yesterday. Nakabawi na rin sa tulog. I still owe some people something I’ve promised, and I will do that within the next few days. Sorry, running on low batteries right now
For those visiting, it wouldn’t hurt to say hi and hello thru my tagboard or if you’re feeling generous, maybe leave a comment on one of my posts. I would really appreciate it.
Welcome to my new home friends! I would appreciate it very much if you will leave a tag or comment for me to know you were here. And please link me up for my linkies from akoni
Happy Friday everyone!
