Living Mye Life

I thought I passed over on my Pinoy Big Brother addiction, but I was wrong.  This season of PBB made me relieved all the memories from the past like going to the PBB hall during live eviction night, meet-ups with fellow online friends, and my very first time going to the PBB big night at Araneta Coliseum to support season 2 housemate, Mickey Perz.  It was such a wonderful experience that I got to be with his family and friends and all this wonderful friends whom I only knew from their usernames in a site or forum where you can support your favorite housemates.  And even after PBB was over, we sometimes meet in one place near ABS-CBN compound, and talked about anything about us and Mickey ( sometimes he drops by to have some chit-chats with us) Though all this, hubby supported me all the way.  And I can say that I’m so lucky to have an understanding husband you can ever wish for.

Now, he’s not even surprised seeing me on my late night habit of going to the 24/7 live stream site just to get a first hand info's on my favorite housemates.  He said because of this I limit my time attending to my games at Face book (ha-ha!) but increase my time in front of the computer.  I still have few months to go on like this but I never forget my other obligations at home, or else, hubby will sell all my farms (in face book) and cut my live stream watching =)

So, who will be my bet for Big 4? 

I’ve found a way to bake last night. I’m not in a mood to move around the house because I’m feeling sick but the bananas I bought is over ripe now and it’s the main ingredients in my cup cakes. Now that I’m starting to feel how I expensive baking is. I know now the importance of complete ingredients to be able to cook delicious pastries, cakes or even bread or else, your products will all go to waste.

But I am starting to think if I'm destined to do well in this new craft. My finished product looks good and everyone here in the house told me it is really delicious. My hubby ate 3 cup cakes in one sitting and he said he will bring some to his office. I will try to bake other than my banana expertise and I hope I can find ways how to sell them out. For now, I will just let my family and some friends enjoy it.

I’ve been very busy every weekend. Hubby rearranged our living room and I’m the one who decorated the whole first floor of our house and it looks like and smell like Christmas now. Every year, I will just stare on our living room and think of a new style for our reused decors. And I’m glad that I still have this creativity in me. It was tiring going up and down while decorating but the result is a fulfilling. I can never imagine Christmas without it.

I already completed the gifts for our godchildren and all is left is for the adults. I hope we can do the shopping before December because I don’t want to be in the lists of those having a Christmas rush. I experienced it once and it will never happen again, it made me sick for one week!

And while we can now feel some cold breeze in the air, common sickness will follow. As of now, I have tonsillitis that really makes me cry especially when I swallow. And the fact that my monthly period is coming, my whole body are aching. I really hate it. I wish I can sleep this pain away.

Before I leave the house for work I’ve been eyeing my new slipper to bring with me since the weather bureau said that it would be a rainy afternoon today. But I changed my mind and instead wear my black heeled sandals. To spare me from beating the 8:30am time because of the jeepney’s waiting to fill up before moving on, I decided to just cross the street and move to the other side where jeepney’s will just pick you up then proceed.

So I already crossed the other street when I felt that my left sandals loosen up, I stop and I thought “oh my goodness, it did snap apart!” What an embarrassing moment! I scanned the area and I knew some people notice that something 's wrong with my footwear. But I did what I need to do, I picked up my broken sandals, walked barefooted (but with my right sandals on) and careful not to let them notice I’m limping ( just like in a candy commercial) but I was scared that I will step on some broken glass. I immediately called our office and asked my colleague to ask for one of our couriers to pick me up because there is no way I can ride the jeepney with my situation. I wouldn’t dare and I will never ever try. Good thing after few minutes my rescue came and he is really laughing seeing me holding my other sandals.

I was so irritated knowing that I have lots of shoes and it happened to me. I should really rely on my instincts, if I bring those slippers with me, all is well and good despite on that unfortunate events. Charge it again to another experience. Good thing it’s Friday and I can only think of nice weekends ahead.

Are you familiar with this phrase “if I can’t have it, neither can you”?  It is commonly known as crab mentality.  Well, this is the way to describe the recent events that happened in our office yesterday.  My outgoing supervisor called me (in a very serious tone) and he let me read an email.  It was from anonymous sender that degrading one of our male officemate who was assigned as our officer in-charge in our project.  He or she stated in the email that all those resigned contractual employees was being mishandled and mistreated by him and they were forced to resign because of that.  It was utterly lies and we all know the reasons behind it.  The funny thing is, he/she sent the email to all top management and we wonder how can he/she do that (events, emails address, persons and even my officemate personal data) if he/she’s not from our company too?  We have a lead on who might do that but only God knows why and what are his/her intentions on doing some bad and harmful emails like that.

Crab mentality refers to these people who wanted to pull his friends or colleagues down simply because he resent their success.  I remember the case of my husband who once experienced it and he really wonders why they can’t let him achieve his hard earned work and instead thrash talking behind his back, entailing bad rumors and gossips about him. I’ve been bragging this to my facebook account and these haters knew that it’s them.  You can never let a good man down.

I thought typhoon Santi will stop the entire trick or treat activities yesterday. It was my first time that I didn’t sleep because the massive winds and rains created a scary sound around our house in Laguna. You can feel that the storm is just beside your house, rattling the roofs and toppling the trees around.

But thank God that it was gone in the morning, though still raining, at least the hard winds stopped. The activities resumed that afternoon to the delight of the kids. My mom and my Aunt made their special “suman” for snacks and we did grilled tuna fish and pork for lunch.

It was Franzine first time to join the trick or treat in Laguna and she was so excited that she can’t sleep or eat the night before the activity. And she walked all the way from house to house shouting “trick or treat!” and jumping around while singing some songs. Vince and Mico came with her and though the organizers told us that we can continue doing it at the club house because it started to rain again, the kids wanted to walk around by themselves, we just followed them with the car in tow (just in case).

Here are some of the photos from the event and typhoon Santi in action =)
