The Blip

With just a blink of an eye. We're entering a new era, a new decade and another journey. So, join me, as we blip through different memories of this year.  

Aside from our yearly celebration, we, as a family, happened to attend our relatives' reunion from my mom's side

We participated in games and had so much fun

MOMENT OF A DAY IN A YEAR:

I woke up from a really good sleep. I thought everything will be alright but it was just a fantasy. My breakfast is a great meal, too bad I had so much that made me collapse and lose consciousness, I thought that it was the end of me. But in times like these, the goodness of people around you will change your perspective. You'll appreciate strangers and their warm heart. 

I also received so much love and a sermon from the one that I love. The care and her bravery amazed me. 

We were having a good time finishing our food. The laughter turned into fear and the adrenaline flashed over me. There was fire all over the place. There's no place to go but God has been good and it went down on its own, sparing our lives and possessions. 

I went to the bathroom, brushed my teeth and took a bath. Seconds turn to hours, mixing water with soap as I mix my sadness and gladness. Sadness from my regrets of spending and not having a savings account. Gladness for He is good. 

The office has been really tiring and painful. Fake news was being spread like a wildfire and negativity was being raised. I wished I knew nothing. There's a good thing in the end, though there were massive changes and eating at Frankie's made everything better.

Lunch made me feel null. The drone shots were amazing. The beach will always be the thing and jumping up and down from those trampolines? Dream come true. I also did a little help for my Jewa as she opened up her Travels and Tours Business, Travel Render. 

I also happened to be amazed by God's story as I listened to His Word. I had a great time with my friends in Victory and still have a good relationship with JIL family.  

Dinner offers me playtime and realization of the thought of "What's Next?" Apparently, we're getting late but God has a promise for tomorrow and He will never fail. His ways are higher and it's the last day of the year. 

BIBLE STORY OF THE YEAR: 

Matthew 13:44-46

The Parable of the Hidden Treasure

44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

The Parable of the Pearl of Great Value

45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, 46 who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.

A LOVE LIFE

4 years and you're still there. I know for sure that my life would suck without you. I can't imagine living this life not being with you. I wish I can do more and be more. You're always the same wonderful woman that I know. Your patience is unimaginable and your love amazingly gives hope and peace.

What's different this year? I don't know but I'm falling in love with you more. I'm not sure what I did to deserve you but whenever I stopped and think about everything that you do, it blows my mind. This year, I'm looking at you the way the same way that I stare at you on the day that I've fallen in love with you. 

I realized that I did not just fell in love with your inner beauty but you're really good looking and sizzling hot. #GondoKaGh0rl? 

And I ask again, what I did to deserve you?

SPIRITUALITY. RELATIONSHIP. GOD

'Cause when I'm with You, I come alive

My day's full of color, I dance through the night

When I see You move, I follow Your lead

My eyes are on You, And Yours, are on me

Christmas 2019

It's the birth of Jesus.
Well, actually, it's not. Nobody really knows the exact date and time of His birthday, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to set a date to celebrate His journey towards us, humans, around 2000 years ago.

I don't wanna be a bummer but, I'm just going to put it out there..

Christmas is about Christ.

It's not about the kids.
It's not about the gifts.
It's not about family.

It's a day where we should celebrate for He has come and will save us from our sins. Well, we celebrate Christmas with kids, gifts, and family but please don't confuse it with the true meaning of Christmas.

Anyway..

Our Christmas was pretty simple. I helped my mom cook our meal for the night. Everyone seems busy and Egypt's girlfriend decided to celebrate with us. We opened gifts and thank God for all that He has done with my simple whisper.

On Christmas Day itself. I went with my girlfriend's family to shop for anything. They have been a huge blessing for me and my family.

Then, that's it. There's nothing big of news or event but spending the day with your loved ones will always be sweet.

Notice to Explain

I've been working for more than 5 years and as per my own judgment, I'm a pretty good employee. I don't break rules and If I did, it a thing that cannot be considered as bad.

Well, I don't know if other companies do this as well. But if you have a violation, you'll be given the notice to explain and you have to defend yourself stating why you should not be held liable for such accusation.

And my streak was broken. Because of that freaking late that I've been talking about in my tweets.

4 mins before my shift, andito ako Susana. Abot 'to.

Anuna?

And it was unexpected traffic. It's so crazy that if you go to Alabang from Alabang, it will take you an hour. That's how bad it was. 

In 2 years in my current campaign, my late arrival only happens once before this one and it's very sad. I'm really hoping that they'll consider what happened. 

I don't want to count my efforts for the company but if I'll be held liable, I don't know what will I fell. 

Hahaha.

Toucan Brazillian BBQ

Since Jassiee and I went to Binondo on the day of my birthday. I didn't have a chance to celebrate with my family. 

So, after several shouts and fighting and misunderstanding, we went to a Mexican Buffet restaurant called Toucan Brazillian BBQ Buffet Restaurant, so we can celebrate with food. 

We were the only customer for the night and the food is great. The BBQs are the best and those grilled fruits are amazing. I didn't even mention yet the Ice Creams. 

We got different kinds of meat, from Pork, different kinds of Beef, Chicken and of course, Shrimps. 

Thank You Lord for this family. And for the food.

JIL Muntinlupa 30th Anniversary

I attended the JIL Muntinlupa 30th anniversary and it's always fun seeing familiar faces around you. 

I saw those performances and hear their worship to God, thanking Him for His faithfulness through those years. I attended their anniversary without any expectation of what will happen. 

I heard the teaching that will always inspire us to be better in our faith in God and be like an eagle that soars higher than the storms. I missed those close to the heart songs that I grew up singing. Apparently, they are the same church that I had in the previous years. 

KKBs

Kuya Marlon and Ate Joan

After the program, I happened to talk, give high-fives and hugs to those amazing people that I've been with. They are the same sweet and funny people, too bad I didn't have a picture with all of them. 

I love them all and It's amazing that there are no grudges held ever since we left a few years ago. God has been good, and He's always been.
