I'm Losing Weight

The diet that my sister recommended works! She and her hubby have lost weight.

My brother has been following the diet too and he has lost some weight.

There was a time I went on vacation for a week so my body clock and my eating habits were out if whack during that time but I only gained back 2 lbs.

I have lost 10 to 12 lbs since May 20. I would have lost more if I had religiously exercised. I have added brisk walking at the mall my daily thing, it has worked really.

New Year's Resolutions And Goals

I should start making my goals and resolutions early. I believe my success rate will be higher if I start following my goals/resolutions as early as January 1.

Last year, I started making my list January 2 then added more on January 4. Here's my list:
  1. I intend to post 1 blog post every month at least. (Achieved) 
  2. Change my blog theme/template (Achieved) 
  3. 30 minutes a day of ME time 
  4. Save BIG time 
  5. Eat more veggies, AT LEAST one serving per day
  6. Give to charity, maybe I could set aside some money everytime I get my pay check. (Achieved) 
  7. Learn a new skill, I haven't decided what to learn this year.
Of the seven, I was able to accomplish 3. The others, not so much.

30 minutes a day of ME time, I did mostly sleep in the afternoon. Not so productive but I work till 4 or 5 AM.

Save BIG time, I was able to save but because of unforseen events in my life like taking a trip with my family to HK, the Habagat 5 day flooding, new laptop, etc., I had to spend the money. However, I do have insurance now so that can be considered as savings.

Eating more veggies is a bit of a hassle for me because it's not practical to buy veggies so only I could eat them. I live alone now. I do eat a lot of fruits though.

Learn a new skill, since I haven't decided which skill I should learn, this one went bust.

This year, I should do the same activities and more. So here's my list:
  1. I'll keep making 1 blog post every month at least.
  2. 30 minutes of ME time, preferably exercise at least 3 times a day. 
  3. Save by setting aside 5K a month.
  4. Get rid of credit card debt. I'm close to achieving this, 50% done.
  5. Eat more veggies and some fruit, AT LEAST one serving per day
  6. Give to charity, maybe I could set aside some money everytime I get my pay check. I need to decide the amount I should set aside for this per month.
  7. Learn a new skill. I should learn how to code or at least try. There are resources online and I have been wanting to do this.
  8. Read, or should I say finish reading, 1 book every 4 or 5 months. I should have read at least 3 physical books in 1 year.
I'd like to add 1 international travel this year but I'm not sure if I'd have the time and money. I may need to buy an airconditioner, inverter type, to prepare for the hot summer. Inverter types are a lot more expensive than the regular ones but they are earth friendlier and more energy efficient. My life revolves around making my life better while I work so I may need to prioritize on the airconditioner over international travel.

I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed. I know I'd have a higher success rate this year because I'm planning to succeed and succeed early in the game. I still need to breakdown each goal in order to make them more specific but this will just be for my eyes only.

Wish me luck!

All Good Things Come To Those Who Hustle!

When I was young, I was petiks (slacker) and I procrastinated a lot. I could afford to slack off then since I was young.

Now that I'm old-er, I don't slack off as much anymore. I take advantage of opportunities that come my way, at least those that I think that are worth taking advantage (of). I always think that if I let an opportunity pass, it may never come my way again. The only time I let things pass is when I am sick or not feeling well or if I think it won't be good for me. Sometimes, even when I'm sick, I drag myself out of bed to go to work. Sayang eh. If I miss 1 day of work, I would lose at least a thousand bucks.

I can't wait for people to make things happen for me. If they don't want to make money from my plans, I'll make my plans happen, with or without them.

I can't wait for people to take advantage of the help I offer them. Some people are just too slooooww ww ww to take action even if the assistance being offered to them is free. Some people are just to slow to take action, even if it means their business would prosper with the free help.

Why do I act like I'm in a hurry? I'm 44, I'm not getting any younger. I need to make dreams come true. I have goals I want to achieve and waiting for nothing will not help me at all.

I found this online which I find interesting. These are a part of 7 laws but I'm picking the best:

  • Good things are waiting for you to come to them.
  • Good things come to those who hustle while they wait.
  • Good things come to those who go get them.
  • Good things come to those who expect good things.


Those are the 4 items that I strongly believe in.

Time waits for no-one...

Time is gold...

Opportunity is perishable...

Good things come to those who hustle. Never stop the hustle. Success comes to those who seize it.

Strange, Scary

A few minutes ago, I took out the trash to the gate so that it would be easy to take it to the basurero when they arrive. I did not notice our next door neighbor (I live in a compound) was looking out her 2nd floor window. As I turned to head back to the house, she called me.

"Fiona," I heard faintly. I turned and I saw her on the 2nd floor of her house. "Auntie," I acknowledge her presence. "Hindi ka ba natatakot na mag isa dyan sa bahay mo?" I smiled and responded, "Hindi po. Takot na po ang mga multo sa akin." We both laughed. But as I walked away, I wondered why she asked that question. I've been living in this house alone for more than 2 years now but she never mentioned anything like this to me. Then I remembered the tsismis I heard about her, people said she is a mangkuku***. No one can really say that she is one. She and her family are kinda strange. I thought maybe she sees something ordinary humans do not see? I wanted to rush back to the gate to ask her if she has seen or sensed something in my house but I was afraid I would offend her.

I am not psychic but there have been instances wherein I have sensed or seen something in this house: a radio dial turning and changing stations by itself, floating dresses, footfalls in my room when no one is there, etc. Last time I sensed something was late last year after my uncle died. I saw a shadow pass by me while I was in still in bed watching TV. It could have been my imagination.

Good luck to me.

Happy New Year!

I am taking stock of my life. I have stepped back and look back at my life in 2008. I am not to be critical with myself or what has happened to me but I have to understand what has happened to me, how would I have changed things, what I have accomplished, what still needs to be accomplished. I have to remind myself of what I want to do, what I love to do, what is important to me, how can I improve myself.

Part of the process of taking stock of my life is my taking a leap of faith. I know in my heart that what I just did a few days ago is a great leap of faith. I still do not know what will happen to me in the end but I know I'll be able to accomplish a few but important things or tasks that I have been putting off due to time constraints.

One of the things I need to do is finish mourning for my loss (my Lola) and get my "closure." I feel I am still in mourning. People see me smiling or being funny but of course, they do not see me when I am serious or alone. I do not expect anyone to understand me, I expect people to respect my desire to be left alone for a while, while I go through my process.

I came across this site about taking a leap of faith. I Googled "take stock of your life" and found Take a Leap of Faith in 2008. Good read.

Customer Service Everywhere

I went to Manila Central University (MCU) hospital last night because my blood pressure would not normalize and I was not able to get enough sleep the whole day.

I arrived at MCU siguro mga 11 PM na but was attended by the ER doctor around 12:30. He was not a gentle and personable doctor. Another doctor took his place, this doctor was a little gentler but was a bit on the condescending side when she spoke to me. She mentioned about giving me an ECG but because of the commotion inside the ER (may isang patient na talagang serious, his family thought he was dead), nakalimutan na ako ng mga doctors. I was given medication then that was it. No one remembered to take my blood pressure after taking the med.

Syempre nairita ako, I stood up asked the first doctor, "What am I waiting for?" Mukhang wala sya sa sarili nya, he just said "Huh?" Sinalo ng katabi nyang doctor and asked what the problem is. She checked on my chart then told me she will get my BP then decide what will happen next. Mabuti na lang maamo ang mukha nya and she was pleasant. Iba talaga ang nagagawa ng pag ngiti ng isang tao sa overall aura nya. She was not all smiles or grinning from ear to ear, in fact she was not smiling all the time but her eyes were smiling. She was pleasant to talk to, her manner was soothing and she was not condescending at all. Imbes na mairita pa akong lalo, I was glad she was the one who discharged me. I was pleased with her attitude and demeanor.

On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the highest, I would give her 9. I would give her 10 but then I am not exactly satisfied with the hospital services and utilities, she had to give me information I did not like exactly and her hair was a bit messy but she was still good. Her name is Dr. Javier of the ER. If anyone of you happen to drop by the ER of MCU, silipin nyo si Dr. Javier, one of the student doctors there. She is pretty, slim, long hair and puppy dog eyes. Hehehe.

Kanina I had to go to Mercury Drug to get my med. I went to the branch that was close to MCU, kahilera ng Yellow Cab. Yung clerk na natapatan ko was talking to a customer. He had an Ilonggo accent and kept addressing the customer as nanay or ma'am. I was suprised he did not take my "order" right after taking the nanay's order. Mukhang baguhan sya. Nakakatuwa sya kasi inspite of his slight nervousness he tried his best to be good at what he was doing and probably was following their company's customer facing procedure. Nung ako na kaharap niya, he would check first if the medicine that I asked was available. Kung available, he would proceed to ask me what else I need. Tapos for mefenamic acid, he asked me for a prescription. I said I was never asked for a prescription for mefenamic acid before then he said next time I should have one. He was not stern or condescending, he was nice and pleasant too. Yun lang I feel that he's still wet behind the ears and he did not know which medication were available or not or how they are spelled. Hehehe.

When I gave him my money, he said "I received P100." Parang Jollibee diba? Pati na nung binigay nya change ko, he said "Your change is ..." Aliw ako. Hehehe.

Right before I left the store, I checked if I had my prescription with me. I asked the prescription from him and he immediately looked for it. He returned it to me and was apologetic. I smiled and said it's ok. I was amused.

I would give Boyet, the Mecury clerk, 8. Apparently, he still need to get into the flow of things. His wants to give personalized service but this slows him down and some customers do not appreciate this. I like his style. He tried to cover all his bases and he was sincerely apologetic with his minor kapalpakan. I do not get to see his kind of customer servicing style from the other Mercury Drug clerks all over the Philippines. Not that I'm saying these clerks are bad, I think the clerks are ok naman, well some are ok and not all. It is kinda refreshing to see smiling and sincere clerks once in a while. Boyet is one of them. This is just my opinion.

Heartbreak

I had to bring 3 big and heavy boxes to my relatives because another relative ordered these stuff for them. I was kinda upset and tired. The boxes were heavy and bulky. On my way there nag stop over pa yung cabbie to get gas. I wanted to berate him but I controlled myself. I was thinking baka i-overcharge pa nya ako kse most taxis have meters that are madaya. Good thing ok ang metro nya so nabawasan ang inis ko.

As soon as I reached the place, my Aunt greeted me warmly. I kissed her and went directly to check on my Lola. I do not know if she recognized me but she did ask me when I arrived, her usual spiel. I then went to the next room and I saw one cousin with her kids. She was holding
her newborn. I carried the newborn and fed her and burped her so my cousin could take a shower and go to church.

By this time malamig na ulo ko. I enjoyed holding the small baby in my arms. She smelled nice and she seemed to enjoy sleeping in my arms. Another cousin greeted me and I told her about the stuff I brought. She was touched by my other relative's gesture and she kept saying ang bait nya. Gumanda na mood ko because of this. I thought my sacrifice was small, the fact that my relatives appreciate the items that my other relative bought for them was enough to make me happy.
I went to his room when my cousing brought his food. He lost weight and looks older. I kissed him and told him I brought some stuff from abroad sent by another relative. He acknowledged me, his voice was weak. I did not want to stay long insde the room, I felt akward but my cousin insisted I stay and we chatted for a while. My sister called while we were in the room, she spoke with my cousin first then talked to me briefly. She asked me how she is, I could not speak because I felt I would burst into tears.

When my other cousin arrived, we had lunch together. Right after lunch, I told everyone I had to leave. As I was preparing myself, my cousin informed me to say goodbye to him. I was not expecting this, I usually leave without saying goodbye because he would be asleep by the time I leave. So nagpaalam ako. As I approached him, he held out his hand and held my hand and kissed it while I kissed his forehead. Nagulat ako. I just left at once baka doon pa ako sa looob ng room humagulgol.

I called my Mom and told her about this, she cried. We both cried. She told me he loved me the most, I told her I know he does, never doubted this. My Mom told my Dad what I told her. He left the room and cied alone.

I just hope he knows I love him too. I can't tell him verbally because I;m afraid to break down and cry. I do not want him to see me cry or get emotional. I do not want to see him sad.

I plan to cook his favorite pinakbet this coming weekend. I hope he gets to eat a lot this weekend.

Attitude of Gratitude

I went through a terribly stressful week last week, I still feel the "aftershocks" till now.

Normally I would have bitched about it here, would have talked about the people who treated me poorly. I decided to put off blogging about it. Now, I have a totally different attitude. My exeprience gave me a different perspective of the people around me. My eyes are wide open now.

I just want to thank God or the Universe or any Higher Being. I received guidance from a Higher Source. It's kinda amusing how events unfolded. Feeling ko parang may nagsasabi sa akin kung ano nangyayari, like an unseen force telling me what to do and what is happening.

Anyway. I'd like to thank the people who visited and left a comforting words.

Hindi ko matanggap...

Hindi ko matanggap...
Gusto kong ihampas ang telepono kanina, gusto kong sumigaw.
Hindi ko lang magawang magwala kanina pero napahagulgol ako.
Bumuhos ng husto ang luha ko tulad ngayon.

Sobra ang sakit na nararamdaman ko pero pakiramdam ko manhid ako, naiiyak na lang ako pag naaalala ko.
Dapat natutulog na ako kaso di ko mapilit ang sarili ko.

Siguro naman may pag-asa pa, puwede pang gawan ng paraan.
Baka may lunas na di pa nalalaman.
Ayaw ko syang mag hirap pero di ko gustog siya'y mawala.
Puwede bang ako na lang?

Hindi ko matanggap, na dadating ang panahong hindi ko na sya makikita...

Next time...

Sorry JC and Jaydee, I'm supposed to write about the perversion thing but I'm tired. My work sched keeps changing every 2 to 3 weeks and it's wearing me out, mind, body and spirit.

Ang dami kong gustong ikuwento pero wala ako sa tamang frame of mind to tell these stories. Sana next week ok na ako.

Chismis


My maternal grandmother has been bedridden for about a month now. I've seen how her state of mind deteriorated in less than a year. She’s now getting weaker every day.

My uncle and auntie have been taking care of her. Nahihirapan din sila kasi they are also old and sick. Last week, I called a relative, an aunt in the province, and asked her if she could find a maid to take care of my lola. She said she will try. I told her how my lola is, told her she is bedridden with bed sores na. These are signs that she may go soon. But her spirit is stronger than her body. Nakakasigaw pa sya.

Last Sunday, I got a text message from my aunt from the province saying that she heard from another relative that my lola is in coma. My aunt wants to know if she would still have to look for a maid. I was in a shock, I did not know if I should get upset or if I should laugh.

I wanted to laugh because in spite of the supposedly condition of my lola, my relative was more concerned our arrangement with the maid. Nakupo! Displaced priorities or concerns?

I wanted to get upset because I was not sure the story was true. I had a feeling the person who relayed the message made an automatic assumption that my lola is in a coma and passed on this story to another relative. I got more upset when I tried to call people but their phones were either unattended or turned off. I could not call my uncle or auntie who were taking care of my lola because I did not want them to know where the story came from, it might offend them specially my uncle. I had to leave work a little early to check what's happening. Buti na lang my brother's phone was turned on so I was able to ask him to call my auntie to ask if Lola's ok. He texted me later saying lola is still the same. I was glad to hear that but I was still upset over the coma story. I informed my sister as soon as she got home from church. She told me that earlier she called another relative and told her how our lola is doing. She mentioned to her that lola is bedridden and did not mention anything about her being in a coma. I told her I had a feeling someone changed the story. My sister had to call a cousin to tell our relative that Lola is bedridden and not in a coma.

Although I know that the person who changed the word "bedridden" to "comatose" from the story had no bad intentions when she said that. Still, this is no excuse to be irresponsible with your words or relaying stories that are untrue and potentially hurtful. I was afraid my uncle would learn of this and get upset. Worse, my mom would hear of this and get really upset. She is abroad and she feels helpless there. I do not want her to get upset over chismis like this.

This is the work of idle minds. When people with minds are not preoccupied with more important things, they tend to create stories from nothing. Some of my relatives have been idle for a long time, no work, no play, just plain day to day nothingness. What's even worse is that they people they have been mingling with are not good influences. My relative's circle of friends have been encouraging her to take part in idle talk and destructive ideas or thoughts. Hay naku...

Remember, people will judge you by your actions, not your intentions. You may have a heart of gold -- but so does a hard-boiled egg.

Good Heavens! Good Luck!

The heat is starting to get worse! Sumasakit na ulo ko sa init. I'm worried I won't be able to get quality sleep beacause of this. Haayy.

It's my off. I was able to finish my laundry yesterday, 3 batches. Kung may pera lang ako bibili ako ng automatic washing machine para isang saksakan lang puwede ko na iwan. What I'm using now is semi-automatic. Oh well...

This morning, I was amused at the news on Unang Hirit. Erap can run again according to him. Sabi na nga ba. Kaya maingay sya kasi he's a sore loser and he wants to oust the person who took his place. Kulang siguro nahuthot nya during his term and he wants more.

I'm glad some of the people during the inter-faith rally walekd out when Erap spoke. The people who walked out showed some delikadesa. Erap had no right to speak there since he is corrupt himself. Na aliw ako when a media man from Agence France Press pratically pinpointed to Erap na mandarambong sya. Napikon daw si Erap. Hehehe. Eh diba totoo naman? He was convicted of plunder and now he wants GMA to step down so he can pick up where he left off? He's a freaking hypocrite!

I am also dismayed at what's been happening to Jun Lozada. Why is he going from school to school, town to town to campaign? Tatakbo ba sya or nagpo-promote ng pelikula? Who is funding this campaign thing of Lozada? What is his purpose? What's the real reason behind the people who are pushing him to do this? If I were Lozada, I should be wary of the people who are using him. Once he has served his purpose, he will be useless to them. No one is indispensable.

If GMA steps down. who will take her place? Laht nagkakaisa para paalisin si GMA but when asked who will take her place, nagkakagulo na, hindi na sila magkaisa. Hay naku... Lumalabas ang mga real motives.

We are a country of hypocrites talaga. Nagsisimba, nagdadasal, kunyari iniisip ang kapakanan ng taong bayan pero wag ka, may ibang motibo talaga. Ang dali nating makalimot. Ang dali nating talikuran ang ating mga pangako lalo na kung ang kapalit ng ating mga pangako ay katuparan ng ating ambisyon.

I am for the cause, but not with the system. Nadinig ko na ito dati, nung nasa college pa ako. Panahon pa ni Makoy, alam nyo naman sa UP, mahilig sa churky hehehe. Who will take GMA's place? I don't think there is anyone qualified to take her place. No one in this country can call himself morally upright. Kung meron man puwedeng pumalit kay GMA na morally upright, good luck to you!

What Can I Say?

I'm not really happy right now.
I'm tired and I always get headaches.
I'm disheartened by what's been happening.
Sigh... Oh well...

May mga gusto akong isulat na interesting kaso baka mabasa ng boss ko, sisantehin ako. Hehehe. Yung trainer namin si Mr. Biceps nagbabasa pala. Jusko! I-announce ba sa buong klase namin yung squirting?! Natural na curious mga co-trainees ko, alam na nila ngayon kung ano ito. Ang bastos ko raw. Iba yata image ko sa work, akala nila saint ako. Hahahaha!

Tapos ang boss ko, he googled my name. Nakita nya blog ko so ayun. Nanganganib ang aking career. Hehehehe!

Next time na ang mga kuwentong churky.

Today is better - The next day was better na ito

Pasensya na mga kaibigan. Naging busy lang kasi sa work; nag iba-iba ang sched ko dahil sa training tapos pagod na ako pag dating ko sa bahay. Ito na ang katuloy ng kuwento...


I got home exhausted physically and emotionally. I wanted to just go to sleep and forget about everything but I couldn't. I felt I needed to resolve one issue, my earring. I hoped that I dropped it at home and not anywhere else. I had to sweep/clean my room and the bathroom for the last time. Pinagpag ko pa bed ko, removed my pillows and blanket and ran my palms and fingers onto the top of the bed sheet. Walang hikaw. I shifted through the dirt and found nothing. When I finally hit my bed, I felt worse than ever. As I was sliding my hands under my pillows I was thinking, what if I suddenly feel my ear-ring under my pillow at nandon lang pala. In less than a minute, I felt something like a big piece of dirt under my pillow. It felt odd so I picked it up and looked at it. I turned on the light and discovered that it was the pakaw of my hikaw (the lock or screw of the ear-ring)! Haleluya! I turned on all the lights and swept every place I went to inside the house. Wala. I swept the bathroom floor, the sala floor, the laundry area.... Wala. I really looked. But I was full of hope kasi I found the pakaw, the ear-ring could be inside my house. It could also have been dropped outside when I went out to buy food. Sigh. I went to sleep praying that my ear-ring was in the house.

The next day, after waking up, my initial reaction was to look for my earring. I went to the toilet to do my stuff first, wash face and such. Then I went to where I left the dirt from last night sweeping, it wasn't there. I inspected every corner of my bed, it wasn't there. I went back to my bedroom and did one last sweeping. Wala talaga. Mukhang wala ng pag asa. I went back to the toilet. Lo and behold! The earring was on the carpet! It appeared as if someone had just dropped it there for me to see! I swept the bathroom floor before going to sleep, I saw small pieces of tissue paper on the carpet. If my ear ring was there, I definitely would have seen it.

I find it amusing that I sometimes lose things and find them eventually in places I've already looked. Feeling ko lang may naglalaro sa akin. This isn't the first time this happened to me.

Anyways, all is well that ends well. My co-worker got the sched fair and square (sinuhulan nya yung gumagawa ng schedule hehehe). I have adjusted to my time zone, EST. My ear ring is more important that the schedule.

This and That

Mari, wish ko lang magaling akong manghula. When I was in college kaya ko pero katuwaan lang, but not anymore. I'll look for a manghuhula for you.

Char, I have been listening to the Long Relax and Short Relax. I was able to resolve my sleep problem but then it seems that even when I listen to the Short Relax after lunch, nakakatulog talaga ako! Hahahaha!

I am doing some meditaion exercises again. I have some decisions to make. I'm a bit troubled right now.

Good luck to me.
