It Has Begun

Sunday, January 30, 2011

I need to make a commitment to myself that I will not let my yearning for little escapades g unchecked.  Exercise extreme vigilance to keep my expenses in check and NO unwarranted shopping.

Austerity is painful, but a must especially in these tough times.  I just hope that I don't drive myself mad in the process.

Face The Music

Saturday, January 29, 2011

Today is a painful day for me.

I've come to realise that the first step in ensuring order in my life is taking control of my expenses.  I am in a financial slump and I need to get my life back.  I can no longer simply ignore the fact that my solvency has hit rock bottom. 

I am scared because I have to face this reality, and that it isn't going away until I address it.  May the good Lord bless me and keep me focused to stay on track with this.

I hope that my work compensation and commissions go back to being regulated.  Those amounts significantly affect my financial standing.

In the meantime, no night outs, partying and what have yous.  Live within my means and just keep reading.

I Miss

Friday, November 26, 2010

I miss.


The beach

The peace and serenity of sitting on the sand, staring at the open sea

The idyllic freedom from urban hustle and bustle

The long stretch of white sand beach

The late lunche and afternoon cocktails

The Glorious Sunsets

The obscene plenitude of dinner

Party till sun up

Soaking up the sun until burnt

Oh Boracay, when wilt I make it back to your divine shores?

I yearn for your restful waters

I hope I see you again, someday soon.

Emptiness

Sunday, October 17, 2010

Ever got that feeling wherein even if you had things to pick up your spirits, and yet they don't work.  I had that this weekend.

Thankfully, I get to spend time with my mum.  I think she is the one person that helps me keep myself together, especially in times when I feel like I've nowhere to go, and when I'm down and out.

There is bliss in singledom, but there is a painful side to all of it.  Nevertheless, all is well. 

I pray to God that I'd be able to pay off my debts and start anew.  I'd really like to be in the phase right now.

Cheated.

Wednesday, October 13, 2010

Today was a day of sorts. The whole day breezed through as a routine. One significant moment was when I was with finance validating my commission.


Ms CM was surprised on the discrepancy she found out about my receivable income. From her end, she computed it using the usual formula and arrived at a hefty 30K. Mine was a meager 5K. I told her that my scheme was plotted out differently. Having seen the difference, I felt dismayed and cheated. I know that I worked hard for each and every peso, only to find out that I’ve been had. My stupidity simply caused me too much already. I’m wishing that would all change because I know that there’s more to what I’m getting.

I’m thankful that I’ve learned to take things and just accept them. However, there are times that it feels like a jagged little pill that simply won’t go through.

I hope that things get better. It always does. It always will.

Passing Through

Sunday, October 10, 2010

In this life, we're all travellers.  We meet people along the way that makes the journey extra special.  Sometimes, we tread a path on our own, whilst at times, its a pack of people.

This week has been a proof of all that.  Some of us might not be headed in the same direction, but definitely, its all worth it.

The next few weeks will be quite challenging as I face another set of tough tasks.  I just hope that I'll be able to make it work.  I know I have beings in heaven that would help me out.  I know that I will prevail if I just hang on.

It was fun that I got to take mum out for a spa and celebrated her and dad's wedding anniversary in advanced.  I know that all good things are there for us enjoy.  Else, life will not be worth anything at all.

Changing for the worse?

Tuesday, October 05, 2010

Things have been changing lately.

First. My Kuya Joel turned a year older yesterday.  Today, his son turned one.  Ah the sweet life.  So many things change, and you just have to be open and embrace them as they come.

However, some aren't exactly as welcomed.  Dragging myself to work was a phase that I went through.  When I go through that phase, huge changes happen.  Most for the worse, and with that, I need to start revving myself to prepare for a new chapter.

Eitherway, I still like what I do even if I don't like the top man.  In his defence, I know his interests are for the best of the company.  But he also needs to look at what composes the company, its PEOPLE.  WIthout it, it doesn't exist.
