Year Ender Part 2

Here's the year ender and last part of this article. I'm gonna end this year with a blast though its so sad coz Im here at work. Im just doing things to make me forget that today is a holiday like normal people would do and make themselves comfortable. I just need a vacation prbably a long one..

The 2nd half..

July came and my niece celebrated her 1 year bday. We just celebrated a small party at the house with clowns and all. I gave her 2 cakes for her party, both of them pink in color.Nothing much to do this 2nd half. We celebrated our 1st year me and hunnie, we had a small party at the house and didnt know what to prepare but we made an effort to buy some foods and my sister prepared the spaghetti and chicken. Then of course there's the getting drunk part. I have grown weight this year because I have grown to drink every rest days. I bought myself a TV and dvd component courtesy of my credit card which I paid for 6 months. It was worth it coz now I can get to sleep over watching TV no worries about getting late night sleep coz my TV has a timer. I'll be placing some pictures on my photoblogs next week. My aunt who stayed here for almost a year for some discreet reasons went back to London to earn a living, although we had fun with her, she just acted like a kid when she was here, so much for that. My hunnie celebrated his 26th bday on October, I gave him a part of my money to buy a new gagdet, then I think he wanted to replace it(sigh). Then came November and December which is my favorite month, I bought gifts every week and bought a cheap xmas tree in TUTUBAN. Whoaahhh.it was almost 2nd week of December when we had our Xmas tree placed on our living room. But the most important thing starting September up to almost last week of November, I became one of the mentors here at work. I was given the chance to rest from taking calls and impart some of my knowledge with new agents. It made me think my work has some bad and good points too.. I know, there will come a time that I'll be looking back over the RS building thinking of  my life here at Sykes. I have learned, grow and matured over the years, our products keeps on developing,my mind enhanced on computer issues, thank God I know how to upgrade my PC's hardware though the mother board is really worn out, but my Mom before this year end send over her laptop for us, which is indeed a very good thing....

Later,  Media Noche will be celebrated by everyone. of course I will be there but the problem is I got work tomorrow morning at 5 am. I'll be coming to work with remnants of the evening that came. Though, I know I can. I need to celbrate this year's ender with a blast. We bought our firecrackers last week and I will be celebrating it with my hunnie, my favorite nephew and niece and all the rest of my relatives. Coz New Year's Day party is wishing us good luck for the coming year to come, I have read the news ahile ago about the TSUNAMI disaster at some countries here in Asia. I pity them though I prayed really hard that God will have compassion to all of us and prevent the end of the world from coming. This year is not all about buying new things and saving money, what if tomorrow never comes, what if is really the end of the world..I know God listens, it jsut that it should comes 1st from us. Forgiveness, penitence..probably are the most important things to consider this coming year. God is giving us a message, though people think that this is just natural calamities which are normal, but I still pray for HOPE coz that's what I expect this coming year. Hope for everyone is a greatest belief that there's always a bright future and perhaps this message will unite us all...Ironic was, it came in a very tragic way=(...Lets offer a prayer for all those who died in calamities and war In Iraq..May God give us providence....

A Year Ender part 1

I'll be writing a two day journal for my year ender blogging. I started blogging last August 2004 but it was on a different website. Anyhow, i enjoy doing this though I know no one is reading my blogsite. What a year it has been, it might have been very fast, way too fast coz everything's so routinary though changes are really normal but it may not be very evident.

The 1st half..

I was sick most of the time coz I was on night shift for 5 months. I was waiting for the time that I can be on morning shift. Last year I spend my Christmas eve here at the office, call me loser yes I was! I was crying while talking to one of my clients, if they only knew how sad and terrible I felt they wouldnt act in such a crazy way. I spend the new year with a new everything, new life, new love, but not a new job, I was hoping but not. I attempt to call my past life, he didnt speak coz he it was his natal day, though I forgot all about it.We spend the Valentines day for the 1st time with my 2nd hunnie. It was sweet coz he bought me a bouquet of flowers, which he doesnt do anymore for some unknown reasons. Although some of it I kept even if the petals are dry as the land where it came from. March came, no summer outing attended. We had a three-day vacation in Baguio last April. My nephew celebrated his bday last April 21., it was a simple 2nd year for him, we went for a swimming and it was fun. On May, I was transferred to morning shift joined wheng's team. I was nervous at that time coz I dont know anyone besides my batchmate in the morning shift, friends strike me like a bow but a sad event came, my friend Melody Arcuna died because of an accident while she was the crossing the street at Edsa on her way home.It made really gloomy to have lost her, to have lost a friend is losing a part of your memory, all I can say, thanks for the wonderful memories Girl.On the 3rd of June, I celebrated my 24 years as Joy Lazaro. My life may not be as relevant to others, but I have fought and succeeded. I may have fall but I have stood where my knees broke down. I have been a fighter for this year, I am self relentless, moreover I survived.

The 1st 6 months was too quick perhaps I got used on my everyday life. Thank God I am now a normal person coz I was included in one of the slots in the morning shift. I've gained friends though I dont exhaust too much time to go out on gimmicks. Probably I grow tired of it..Coz this year its just a matter of having peace with myself and people who surrounds me. My life has become routinary though not quite coz I was discovering more about myself and I become stronger in terms of dealing with a situtation. I have been hurt alot of times eversince my childhood days up to the 1st time I fell inlove. Right now, this year pain comes as a part of me. Trials may be as hard as swimming an ocean but for me there's always an island nearby. I have lost someone special to me, physically and emotionally, my friend will always have a special place in my heart. I have lost someone a year ago, but it was because of somebody else. My friend Melody will have a special place and had left a void that I could never imagine who could ever replace her , she has a company that's so warm but I had let her go and she is always within my memory, kept within the rooms of my heart...I had too much to tell for the 1st half of this year and thiis blog artcile wont be enough for the 1st half...Though this year nothing relevant happened. Probably the 1st half is vague as to what my mind can remember. I will always have a way to remember..Thanks 1st half of 2004 and even for the past years you made me what I am now enjoying the last 2 days of the year...

Today's shift

I woke up at 515, my shift starts at 5..So in other words, I was late....I woke up took a bath for only 5 mins. Then rode the taxi for work and it costs 200 pesos, though it was worth it, coz the trip was 25 mins. So I have to leave work at 3 pm today.

Relevance of this: make sure that your cellphone alarm has full charge coz if not you'll end up like me..So much about thinking I have a body clock...Whoaahhhh!!!

Anyway: malapit na magbagong taon, bagong buhay, bago lahat..Pero sna magaw ko na resolution ko na lagi kong napapko every year. tumigil na sa bisyo kong di maganda, kun ano man un lam un ng mga taong nakakakilala skin...

Pasko Na!!!!!!!!!

Ngaun,makapilipino muna tema ko, ewan ko ba sa kadahilanan ata ayoko ng maniwala sa mga Amerikano, tutal di nman nila ito naiitindihan..Mejo inaantok pako ngaun habang nandito sa opisina. Nagpapalakpakan ang mga tao sa tuwa kagabi, natapos na ang 9 na gabing pagpupuyat ngnit napakasrap ng pakirmadam ko kc mas npalapit ulit ako kei Lord..Hayy,dko na mkikita un mga paborito kong karakter sa simbahan. Mga bagong mukha na tga smin, mga kaservice ko dati ngaun na ngsisilakihan na..Mga kapitbahay nmin na nglalaro lng sa kalsada noon, ngaun ngbibinta't ngdadalaga na. Pinakapaborito kong parte ng pagsisimba ay un pgkain ng puto-bumbong..Ewan pero ang alam ko magpapasko na...

Ngaun napalaitan ko nman ang layout ng aking Blog, mejo umayos, mejo gumanda..Pero ewan ko cguro papalitan ko ulit kc masyadong maliit.

Hayy 30 porsyento kikitain ko sa pagpasok ngaun, kapalit nito ay 3 araw na wala munang sakit ng ulo. Ang aking kabatchmate d2 sa trabaho pagkaraan ng 2 taon mhigt ay tuluyan ng aalis dito sa trabaho naming walang kasiguraduhan..Pero malki ang aking utang na loob dito, kundi dahil sa trabaho kong ito, dko mabibili ang mga gusto ko at baka ako'y isang taong walang abilidad at walang kaalaman.

Ang alam ko lng mgpapasko na kinabukasan. Sbi nga ng pari ang pasko daw ay para pagyamanin inde lamang ang materyal na aspeto ng buhay kundi pate ang spiritwal na bahagi nito.Sa wakas ngaung taon nrrmadaman ko na ako'y tao muli..Di na ako zombie nglalakad na panay trabaho nlang iniisip. Sana man lng meron kaming bakasyon na 2 lingoo tulad ng normal na empleyado..Sana lng..Napapagod din ako..Ngunit ganun tlga ang buhay..

Pero tama na nag drama sa lahat ng aking, kaibigan, kapamilya,kapuso at lahat ng Pilipino sa buong mundo..Maligayang Pasko sa inyong lahat!!!!!!!

Christmas is just around the corner..

Its the 23rd of December. I was on sick leave yesterday coz my back hurts. I have lot of plans to think of this Christmas. I will have a 3 day restdays from Christmas up to the 27th. I have lots of things in mind. What I am real excited i..today would be the last day for the 9 day novena mass of Misa deGallo. And this would be the first time I will be able to complete it. I just wanted to ask the Lord God for good health and better lives for all Filipino people (sounds so serious ayt?). Anyhow I have given some of my gifts to my friends and co-workers,received gifts as well from Mumai and Janey. I am so happy making people happy as they make me happy too. Its Christmas eve tomorrow. I have done the shopping for the Christmas eve meal. I bought a HAMONADO which I consider cheap coz the branded one coz around 400 pesos..Whoa!!!..I hope before this year ends I can buy myself a new bed...

Just to add more. Rhyss whose now 2 years old always go with us during Misa de Gallo, he makes  tantrums on the church smile to people and gained alot of admirable fans because of his wonderful smile...Anyhow,sleepless night will be son be over. But I found out that Ill be reporting to work on Jan1 next year. So much for happiness...Anyhow...we'll see..My shift ends at an hour or so. Monday, my friends from high school would have a dinner hope I could join them...

Gift giving

I have received a gift from one of my good friends here in the office. She was kind enough to look for a gift for me. I would definitely open the gift on Christmas eve placed it together with the the other gifts under our Christmas tree. People are all now busy thinking of the best to give, whats the most suitable present especially for their special someone. I have already completed my gift shopping almost 2 weeks ago. I was really anticipating this year's Christmas coz this would be my 1st time smelling the cool breeze of Christmas morning...But the real esence of gift giving I believe is to understand the importance why Christmas only comes in every year and why it gives the people a warm feeling although the weather is cold than normal...Why it feels so sad not having your loved one around you during this season and why people smiles alot and even forgives those pople who sinned them and they even ask for forgiveness...Probably the real essence of Gift giving doenst come from material things though its really relevant its where you feel that the gift will make the person happy and really feel remembered....That's what I felt evrytime people remembers me..Thanks Mitzie..You're the 1st friend who remembered me in such a special way...But to top it all, thank you Lord Jesus for all the true friends I have left in this world...That's the best gift I had so far..Friendship.....

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!

A Denied leave

I applied for a one day leave and found out this week that it was denied. I cant understand but I have been sick for about a week now. But I always think these things and how my metrics would be if I dont go to work.But there's always this question inside my head, do they want people to rest? We are never given any leave even Christmas leave,I think we pay you good is a good sentence. Nevertheless I dont want to elaborate things. I was having a fever and found out I got an infection. Yet I still have to go to work, by hook or by crook...When will I see the end of the line for all of this?

Mom offered a car or a vacation..You could either spend the vacation here or buy a car (2nd hand lng gus2 nya kuripot c mama)..Do you know what I choose VACATION....probably next year three weeks would be fine...I badly needed one right now.
Nowadays, I havent had the time to have a social life because Im, always tired seems my body is too weak for a night day out. I am so bummm!!!!

Starting over

I have enjoyed watching starting over at the ETC channel. It's a reality show that helps to woman to start over and work on some of their attitude problems. The thing is..its not scripted and I could normally relate to one of the characters. I always make it to a point that I reach home before 5pm.
I have really enjoyed watching them though I found out that what the cable shows is very much outdated..Probably 4-5 months late..Try this site to read it over http://www.startingover.tv/meet/index.html

Misa de Gallo

Misa de Gallo starts today, but to some who needs to work at an early time, I have attended the 9pm high mass. I was with my sister and my nephew last night. The priest's homily said that the 9 days for the Simbang gabi is commemorating the 9 months that the Blessed Virgin Mary conceived our Lord Jesus Christ. The Misa de Gallo has been a tradiion to our family eversince I was small kid. What I really like about the Simbang gabi is the cool breeze in the morning, the warmth in the smile of the people who goes to church, the very knowlegable homily by the priests, and puto bumbong,bibingka, the lights and the parols on the street. Well that I was all in the past coz, I have to go leave for work at 330 am and just reminisced those times, although the simbang gabi will always be a way of praying and asking for forgiveness and most likely for the Lord's compassion for our fellow countrymen.

My college friend texted me at 1 am. I had 4 hrs of sleep. He was someone special or he used to be...He informed me that the barkada wont have our yearly Christmas party because my friends who had a 7 year relationship already broke up. Well thats how life goes...I will be texting Pia later to say hi.

I have already placed my gifts for everyone under our Christmas tree. I am so excited for this years Xmas, I would be celebrating Xmas just like any othe human being does, not as an operator or an answeing machine. I have a teammate who swap his sked with me for saturday dec 25. That includes dec 24 as well.. It would be my first time again after 2 yrs. I am planning to go to EK on christmas with some of my high school friends and of course my hunnie..Anyhow, to everyone..Happy Holidays!!!
