I believe you'd be thinking this is some cheesy blog site that would certainly bore you off.

It's entitled ROMantic.... (god, love again!) and you're all tired of the talks and theories about it.

the word "LOVE" could even shoo off many people.

You think that's it.... boring, cheesy, emotional...

Well think again!

ROMantic is the adjective form of the word ROMANTICISM.

Good o'l wikipedia.org defines it as the artistic and intellectual movement during 18th century Europe. This form of idealism is characterized by strong emotions and aesthetic experiences.

This movement is actually a counter reaction to the conventional form of art and thinking. It is more inclined towards the real experiences of human living.

Ok so enough with the big words.

Actually all I ever want to say is that, I won't just be talking about love. As the definition above provides that it is more inclined to real life experiences, a big portion of my blog would be devoted to my daily (read:comical) adventures at home, in the office... and maybe sometimes in the bathroom. =)

That would mean you can expect a lot of other crazy things in my write ups (you have no idea about the tons of stupid things I've been doing so far in my young adult life heheh!)

By the way, I'm single and unattached.

Had a few boyfriends.

Am a struggling web-person (sometimes I wonder if I can be a real sleek web designer/writer in 2 years time,....hmmm)

Am greatly dependent on my Lord. He's been my very bestfriend all these breathing years on earth.

Am a UP grad. Cool di ba? =)

And finally....

Am trying to earn in the net.... so please read on! and yeah don't forget to click the ads above..

Until my next entry.

Promise it won't suck. =p

My pre-office episode today was quite tough.

Everyday, I take on the Pasay-Shaw MRT route to get to Pasig. That means passing by Megamall as I head off to the office at Emerald Ave.

Today was such an encounter. The lady security officer at the entrance of Mega B caused a few wrinkles to appear upon my forehead this afternoon, not to mention the sweat I had to wipe off as I wait along the long lines of the mall entrance.

It was just too much and what she did just got into my nerves. Aside from the "valid" hassle that one has to go through because of the SOP security inspection, this lady guard had me opening up the inside pockets of my petite hand bag, including my make-up kit!

I wonder if she might be intersted in knowing if I also kept an extra napkin for my period. sigh...

And so i ended up verbalizing my complaints at the Customer Service area. Thank God, I didn't draw much crowd from the encounter.

I told them I felt that their security measures are going overboard and it's already a form of intrusion to their customer's pivacy. They didn't react too much. I guess they're not the ones responsible to handle such matters but I made sure they're gonna address this issue to the mall's authorities.

Thay can say, it's security and it's for my benefit. Still, it leaves me wondering why can't they invest into a more effective and EFFICIENT security procedure or device for the place. I mean, that's Megamall! I'm sure they were able to foresee the great amount of people traffic it would be harnessing.

Ok, so much for that. whew!

The main issue here is security.

There's barely a thing of it in this world, in our generation. If all of us would be working towards peace and earning trust from one another, then there'd be no issue of safe and not safe in this world.

The problem that we're trapped into is that we refuse to be open to other perspectives. We discount the concerns of those unlike us and we get so self-absorbed with our own agenda.

Just when everybody thought war is the security solution, it actually endangers it even more. A genuine peacetalk for me, is still the better option.

I wish our tomorrows will be a safer time to live.

And i wish tomorrow, the guard won't make me reveal the brand of eye shadow I use. =(

Today was such a bad bad day.

If I'd be given a chance to cry in the office, I'd gladly grab the opportunity.

Morning.

This morning, I was having a hang over of my latest cry issue last night. I know I am happy for my dear high school friend couple who just got back together. I don't know, pondering about the news made me cry (really hard). I don't have any emotional involvement with any one of them, aside from the fact that we're close friends. I guess I just felt a bit ____ (fill in the blank. Your guess is right) about it. I hate to admit it, guys.

Ok... so that took a big portion of my morning. By the afternoon, I can't help but feel really sleepy coz by that time my eyes have really grown tired of shedding pointless tears.

Pre-office.

I was late. I had to wait for a friend coz she's about to apply in the company I work with. She got lost and I had to pick her up from the wrong location. It's not her fault, though,it's the taxi driver's. Still, I was 30 minutes late for my shift.

The Shangrila Accident.

After walking a few meters from the mrt shaw stairs, I got myself into a terrible slip along the road to Shangrila. My chin hit the floor real hard. I got some knee scraping (and it still hurts till now!). My palm got wounded also. In other words, casualty ako ng pagkadulas!

This isn't new, anyway. I usually have such acrobatics way back in high school and college. Or, it can be my shoes.

Basta, nakakahiya pa rin!

Office.

Though I see it as a good thing coz I got to practise HTML, I simply made 10 templates for 1 client today. Great! hehehe! It was taxing but a helpful experience anyhow.

So... it was really a bad, terrible day for me.

Tomorrow:

1. I won't cry over some stupid reasons anymore.

2. I'll wear my ever-reliable-sandals intead. Safety measures.

3. I'll get up early. Shop early. Go to work EARLY!

4. I'll check on Aileen's templates so that optimization won't be too hard  on me heheh!

Last: I hope nothing happens as I leave the office tonight. (wink wink)

Sick... I was, last Saturday.

I can't believe I couldn't get up from bed the whole today. Overfatigued. I've been pushing myself to the limits by going home so late at night everyday after office hours... pretending I'm okay again.

and then boom! it hit me again. Congratulations stress. You overpowered me once more hehhehe!

This happens to me a lot of times. Way back in college, I had this certain period of my life when I was just so into everything, tryin' out every activity (academic or non-academic) that comes my way. I was running from an emotional problem back then so I figured If I jumpacked my day with lots of activities, I'd forget about it.

Well, as everyone knows by now I didn't succeed. I just turned ill and got hospitalized for about a month. I didn't know I wasn't eating right anymore.

During that period, I had a few things to think about. Actually, I was forced to think about them. I learned that we can never replace issues with work. And God has a way of slowing us down so that we can better reflect on our situation, and the more important things in life.

I do not get myself satisfield lately. There's nothing wrong with my workplace or with my co-workers. Self fullfilment cannot come from better circumstances. True.

It can only come from your awareness that you have helped others in their situation, instead.

Thank God I got sick. I had some peace of mind. Stopping by God's terminals is most of the time worth the journey.

Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!!

Late BRL filing = a significantly low salary!

huhuhuhu.... my fault anyway.=(
