On a daily basis. Almost

Being alone in the house everyday has made me even more of that boring person that I am.
By the time I wake up in the morning, I almost automatically make a plan/things-to-do for the day. By the time I get up from my bed, spontaneity also gets up and becomes my company. It is the only reason I can think of why my to-do list gets trashed. Every single day. (Aside from the fact that I always put the blame on anyone/anything not me. Haha)
 

 Breakfast, no matter what's been cooked, peanut butter and jelly will never be forsaken

 Then I check on the laundry basket if there's a need for clothes to be washed. If not, then we skip. Duh

This is an example of unplanned activities getting done. When I have a lot of things to do and read, stupid ideas are being welcomed.

 I saw the container with lipsticks inside and so I tried them on. Only five of them though because I realized it's a total waste of my precious time. HAHAHA I ALLOW YOU TO KILL ME NOW (smell the vanity? I do)

This is just an example how stupid and wasted my day can go. I still have a few days to spare until the weekend so... What else could happen...?
Just another one of my lengthy and senseless post. If you just read it, then hell, you're just as bored as I am. If you care enough to save me from insanity, give me a ring/send me a text message/tweet me and tell me we have to hangout (or even joke about hanging out) just so I can feel that the world is still spinning and that I still have friends. Hahahaha
Good night!

Relaxed

A month has passed since I became officially unemployed. A few have asked if I have started my job hunting yet and I give them a shrug. Now I ask myself, "Have I?" then I get the same answer.
I get the pressure of being an unemployed graduate (I finished college last year) because once you get out of college, you are expected to have a job a few months after graduation. What happened to me last year was, I started working a week after graduation. I was too overwhelmed to get a job offer, not really thinking if I like the job that was being offered. I didn't even have any idea what it was all about. I was too excited to earn my own money!
A few months passed and I started to feel burned-out. I cannot really say that I didn't like what I was doing but going overtime almost everyday totally made it worse. Life wasn't there anymore. I did enjoy going to the office because of my colleagues-friends. But you really cannot go away with those whom you can't stand seeing (I don't want to do a naming game in here, okay?).
Then it hit me, do my efforts receive enough compensation?
*I can't pay our electricity bill (sometimes I give, most of the time I don't)
*I pay for my cellphone bill
I can't go through the deats really, it's nonsense.
My point is, I was not happy because I cannot give my family enough. okaaay, I know that I do not know how to budget my money, but is it even enough to be budgeted? Hahaha ang arte lang. And I believe that having an undergrad degree is not enough nowadays especially for those like me whose course cannot get them to take board exams after (sa opinion ko lang ha wag kang magagalit, pero maganda ang business course kung gusto mong sa office ka at marami ka nang pera at gustong magsimula ng sariling business dahil mayaman ka nga).
Ewan ko san patungo tong post na to pero ang alam ko nagpa-enroll na ako at mag-aaral na ako uli ngayong SABADO!
What a boring update! Till the next boring one!
Oh, wait. I have new photo albums in my multiply account:

Hi, Mama Lomie/Lumen, I love you!

My mom's cool like that.

Lola Gaya with her eldest son, my Papa

May 13 is Mother's Day. It's not May 13 anymore but I believe I still owe this blog a post, one for my first love, my mother.

Mama, known as Lomie to some, Lumen to others, is a very simple person. Born in the rural area of Maco, Compostella Valley, Mama lived a very simple life at the province. She would often tell us stories on how poor her family was to make us realize that we should be very thankful for having been provided with everything that we need.

Mama is a smart kid (it never changed). She finished high school as salutatorian of her batch and took up civil engineering in college but gained two titles as she passed two board exams on the same year she finished college. Papa named her "engineer-engineer" for being a civil and a geodetic engineer.

She didn't really wish to be an engineer for she wanted to become a doctor/lawyer. But because of the lack of financial support from her family (they were really poor back then, as she often says), she was forced to choose a course which was available at her school, Notre Dame of Cotabato, that time.

She was then employed at the Dept. of Agrarian Reform regional office and still is an employee of the same until this very moment. She met my Papa at work. Haha! And now, they have 4 kids who love them so much.

My dear mom is a very loving, patient, conservative yet liberated (in a way), funny, witty, and a cool person. She may not be perfect  (no one is), but someday when I become a mother, I wish to be like her.

They say that 75-80% of a child's intelligence is from his/her mother but mine's the opposite, I believe. I have accepted that fact a long time ago and we all laugh to that. Haha! But at least I can brag about having a smart mom! (Si Mama lang muna because this is for her, Papa, stay calm haha

I love you so much, Mama, and nothing can/will change that. Thank you for being the best for us, for the whole family. And I got my looks from you, haha, I must be happy.

Happy Mother's Day!

P.S. The last photo shows my father being a mama's boy. Happy Mother's Day, Lola Gaya! I am so happy to have that day celebrated with Mama and Lola. Hope you had a great time with your moms, too!

I say Hello..

Months have passed and I am still out of words. Or I'm just convincing myself that I am when I actually have a million things to talk about. No, I think I also have a long list for excuses on why I couldn't even give a decent update every once in a while.
Lazy, slow internet connection, in-and-out ideas, too many things to talk about I cannot decide which must go first, lazy, lazy, lazyass.
The best update I can give for now is I am unemployed and I am too lazy to hunt for a new job.
I say goodbye.
