i went to naomi's blog and was surprised to see that she made an entry just a few days ago. i am happy to know that she is a lot more stronger now and more able to take on the world's challenges.


it's been a couple of months now since we last spoke with each other. we did send each other a couple of text messages over that period of time, but our messages are stilted and awkward, like we've got something stuck on our throats. it felt like we had something to say but didn't really want to say it. i am reluctant to admit that i may have been a little too harsh on her the last time we spoke with each other. but i am not taking back any of the things i told her. at that time, i felt that what she needed is a good bang in the head instead of a good lay. and i gave her exactly a what for after what she did. and of course, she stopped texting me after that.*LOL*


sometimes, i feel that she is never thankful for having a life. i know, i know... she is SO overburdened with her family's problems. but like what i always tell her, nobody said that she should carry her cross all the time. i think even jesus fell down while carrying his cross and stopped for a while to get a breather. the way i see it is, she refuses to take her life as it is. she keeps on carrying on, sad and miserable, always thinking about her family's issues and never about what's bothering her. well, shalom and i always thought she's too emotional for her own good. i feel that there are some things that she can't fully accept and that is what's dragging her down. oh well... it's her life and i'm just her friend. no matter what i say, she'll be living it the way she sees fit.


i really should stop meddling in my friends' businesses, but then what kind of a friend will i be if i don't meddle? i love them and i will do everything to make them happy. i am glad that naomi is happily moving along. i don't care if we don't speak with each other forever, just as long as she's ok and happy.

getting my groove back

it's been a very busy week for me. calls, calls, calls! but funny enough i am happy to have moved to another team. eventhough i am still level one rep, i am once again facing a whole new load of information to feast my brains on. it's a little nerve-wracking, especially when i make a boo-boo. but my colleagues are supportive and helpful enough. my thoughts of moving on to another company seem to be but a thing of the past. i've found my niche and once again, i am more than content to sit on it for a couple more months.


never thought i'd feel this way, but work is exciting once more...and i hope i'll still be feeling this way a month or 2 from now. wish me luck!
on two different email accounts i have received an email from shalom, one of my best friends for the longest time, asking me to help her remember my birthday. i'm sure that this is one of those automated emails from a site that offers a "birthday alarm" service. but just the same, it's a little unnerving for me to get this from a person who has known me for more than 10 years. my birthday is on All Saint's Day. it happens right after Halloween. how many people can a person know in their entire lifetime that celebrates their birthday on All Saint's Day?!?


i'm not making this a big issue. after all, i'm pretty sure that being a very busy working mom and wife is enough to make her forget everybody's birthday. i just can't help but be both saddened nd alarmed by it all. me being me, i'm thinking, as i sat there looking at the subject "help me remember your birthday" or something of the like, that maybe we have been "estranged" for so long that she needs to be reminded of certain things about me now.


valentine's day is fast approaching. i would like to invite her and naomi on a girl's night out like we always did way back when. all three of us would go out and have fun on valentine's day for every year since all three of us met and became friends. but keith and i are going out of town to go to his uncle's funeral. naomi's most likely busy. she doesn't even bother to text these days. and shalom, well... i don't think she could spare time away from her hubby and kids.*sigh* so i guess there won't be a girl's night out on valentine's day this year. maybe next year. i'll keep my fingers crossed on this one as well and i'll keep edna st.vincent millay's words in mind:


life must go on though good men die.
life must go on... i forget just why.

a night to remember

imagine this: a roomful of scented candles, a dozen roses, sumptuous vegetarian pasta with garlic bread, and julia fordham softly crooning in the background...


heavenly right? romantic? definitely!and that was exactly how i spent saturday night. with keith.*wink*


i may be down and sick during the weekend but i sure had some great good-lovin' which ensured that i would be up and about for the coming workweek. sometimes, i feel like i live for the weekends. when i would be able to just kick up my heels and relax, do whatever i want and sleep in keith's arms. but i am hoping that this would all change now that i am being trained for new tasks. maybe this is what i need to get my groove back on work. i'm keeping my fingers crossed.

as if!

on any "normal" day, this result would have made me swoon. but not today. not today.

Will Turner is the caring young man from pirates of the caribbean. he will adore you till the day that he dies
You are going to Marry orlando Bloom. He will
always treat you right and is very romantic. He
will do anything for you. He is very polite and
has deep brown eyes and is very good looking
(which is another plus!). He can make anything
cheesy look really hot(like sliding down stairs
on a shield shooting arrows or wearing pointy
ears for example). Congrats!!

standstill

evidently, i am in no mood to write.


my head is about ready to explode. i am swimming in a pool of thoughts and i am about to drown. recent events have all piled up and decisions that should have been made yesterday are still waiting to be deliberated tomorrow. i am at a crossroads and i don't have any idea what path to take. robert frost took the one that was less traveled by and it all made the difference to him. i wonder if it would be for me...


*sigh.*
