Snip Snip

Everybody seems to be getting a haircut nowadays. I keep on asking begging my husband to allow me. Finally, he said yes last thursday. He is not some tyrant by the way he just love my long hair soo much that he often said he’ll get sad if I cut it. We are still in the middle of summer here in the sunshine state, so a long hair doesn’t really help with this kind of weather. Read more

I Miss My Danda

chloe and mommy

Last night while I was dozing off to sleep, I can hear my hunny’s cat Toby running around the room and going up and down the bed a couple of times.  He is so fat that you can hear all his moves.  I think he’s just about a size of a small breed dog.  I then start to remember Chloe from way back home.  She’ s such a beauty and I love her sooo much.  I couldn’t help but cry and remember my little darling.  I didn’t say goodbye to her when I left because I don’t think I can bear looking at her eyes.  You know, she’s  not good at goodbyes.  Every time I tell her goodbye, she will run towards me as if telling me to take her with me.  She will also go up in the chair or table - looking out at the window as I leave.  On that day when I really have to go and there’s no exact date when I will be coming back (mostly years), I did not say goodbye to her.  I miss her soo much.  I’m sure she’s well take cared of.  My mom told me that her babies are cuter than ever and they can walk now.  I’m happy to hear that.  I hope to see her soon - alive and healthy.  Mommy loves Klaw-Klaw.

 

The Pout

I leaped on leap year

visa

I was soo sleepy from lack of sleep the other day. I went straight to bed as soon as I got home from work. I have only been asleep for a couple of hours when my cousin starts knocking at my door. When I open the door he said, “Jan na daw visa mo”. I was surprised. Part of me was excited but another part of me is saying “nah, probably they just returned my passport with a reject stamp on it”. After paying the delivery guy, I hurriedly open the package and took out my passport. Alas! There it is, I got approved. I can’t believe it. After grueling months of waiting and frustration, we finally got what we’re hoping for. I told Stephen and he was ecstatic. We just kept on laughing for a good 2 mins (i think). I need to leave soon and my resignation is just the perfect timing. Indeed, God gives you what you are praying for in the perfect time and place.

My name is Jennifer and I’m an addict

They say that the first thing you need to do is to ACCEPT it, so here goes. I admit that I’m an addict. No, not in drugs (but you might find it interesting that I haven’t seen illegal drugs in real life) and not sex. I’m addicted to the boob tube. I think it all started when I was young. Watching saturday morning cartoons is a ritual for me and my brothers. Yes, we would even fight which cartoon to watch. Then, when I start studying, the purpose of tv for me has evolved. If I have to stay up and review, I need the TV on because else I will get scared and start to think of ghosts etc. Now, it has a new purpose for me. I have made it an alarm clock and most of the time I have used it as a “radio” till I fall asleep. It has wasted my time when I can do other things. Other things that I love doing, like working on a scrapbook, posting blogs like this, etc. No wonder why I feel that everything in my life seems to be monotonous. wake up..work…eat…watch tv..sleep..Weird thing is, no matter how long I stayed watching tv, I forgot what I’ve watched. I looked but never see, I heard but never listen…I want to take my life back and start doing things that I enjoy more than watching TV.

“I Resign”

resign

Due to the insistent public demand, I have officially filed for resignation February 24, 2008. I have been undecided for months now that it has affected my health and I have undergone depression. Yesterday, I finally did it. I was nervous but after submitting the paper, I feel at peace with myself. So I guess, its job hunting time now. :) Hopefully, I can find that job that I really WANT.
