Coincidental Influence - NOT!

being so influential is not really fun. at all.

but sometimes, it gets me too! now im gonna run back in time to prove that everything is not just coincidence.

CAT days, i was influenced to join it. But i was able to inlfluence others to join in too.

Commerce, i was influenced to take it too. later on i was able to influence a classmate of mine to major in B.A. di ba munch? :)

Pax Romana, yeah, was influenced by the seniors, but later on, was able to influence others to join not only Pax, but legis and chorale too!

I kinda know that i am that much of being an influence not just in major life changing decisions but even in small instances like:

the bdj planner : was influenced by my bestfriend but then, i was able to influence first my sister then miani and angela and now, never mind. i'll be going forever if ill continue.

The rollers ; was influenced by my sister then i was able to influence a lot too. so they had their hair longer, bought their own rollers so they could do it-themselves.

Same with haircolor, you know. And the high lights. You could just wonder, one day they'll say i have this nice hair color/highlights, the next day they are on it too. And when i tried confronting them about imitating me, they'll say no? come on. you think you could get away with that. that was just so damn-right obvious.

The braces, the contact lenses, the eyeglasses, the slippers, the shoes, the scrapbook, whatever. Some may say coincidence, but in my eyes, definitely not.

CEBU!

this is soooo it. i finally had this chance to sit down and think things over. November was so great. And for sure, this December isnt going to be left behind even a bit.

The Cebu Trip was so cool! (Im so sorry you guys, im working on my blogs using our desktop so the pictures cant be uploaded at the same time. )

It was supposed to be a trip to Hong Kong, but since some have expired passports, then thiw wont work. This is supposed to be our Thanksgiving/Team Building activity. So everyone was expected to be there. Then everybody checked for seat sales, first found was in Davao. Thought of things to do there, cant really think of A LOT, then there came CEBU and as in in that instant, David told us to book. And so the Aa and vren and remy did. That was awesome. Airfare was solved. Then, things got so out of hand, the team just decided to do it backpacker style. Meeting adjourned.

The next day, we had a problem! Some of the tickets didnt went through so they have to go to the office to manually do it. SO, what happened was, we were divided into two groups, the first flight, at 4am and the 2nd @6am. And guess what. I was included in the first group, not mentioning that the 1st group was composed of the BoVi gentlemen, David,Paul, Rob, Carlos and Jax. Yep, all boys. and im the only rose. AWKWARD! that's what i thought. But honestly, there's no air of awkwardness then! I felt like being on an airplane with my big brothers and i felt like nothing could go wrong and everything's fine. ( David is my Boss, btw. so everything should really work out great with the 1st group right)

We arrived 5am, walked a long way and really commuted going to Marriott Hotel. From there, we received a news that the 2nd flight, composed of the BoVi ladies will be delayed. So what's left for us to do? Easy. Boss treated us to a buffet lunch! That's what we get for being with the boss and im so thankful that im with the boys! I really felt like i was back to being that tomboyish girl from elem-hs! hahahah!

Once the ladies arrived, we started the tour! for starters, we tried the best lechon in CEbu, (CNT) in ayala mall, which gave me the feeling of being in greenbelt. as in same design and all, less people nga lang. Went to their very own Divisoria too, less people nga lang ulit, as in much less. Then off we went to the Taoist Temple, On our way there, i was like thinking if this was like the Grotto in Baguio, But buti na lang hindi. lesser steps. hahahah.

After that, we hired a jeep going to Mactan Shangri La where we tried their best selling drink : BUKO JUICE! Oh my! that was really tiring! trying to finish that up! it was like it was bottomless! and no matter how hard i tried to kill it, i cant. I felt disappointed for not finishing that Buko. Then off we went to Imperial Palace. Our thing here is to have a feel of the finest hotels in Cebu. 7 star daw. That i cannot believe kasi from what i know, isa lang ang 7 star hotel sa buong mundo. at nasa dubai yun. Oh well. Then when we were about to go back to the city proper it started raining! reallly! so hungry and tired we ended up eating in a locale grill which was actually good naman!

Then, we had this room with 11 beds! yes, we all slept in one big room! and that was soooo fun! parang i could feel the bond, and im just so happy that im rediscovering myself again. Its been a long time since i last felt this way. With Akdang Buhay, then with pax and now with them. Just so nice.

We woke up around 4am the next day kasi we need to make habol sa bus going to Bantayan Islands! And 'the boss' was one of us. Im just amazed by this person because he is so humble! Then that was my first time to rife a RoRo too! shet. This just keeps getting better and better! And when we actually came to Sugar Beach, oh my! Was so clean and looks like we were the only people there! we immediately changed outfits and rode a small banca so we could go snorkeling na! everybody jumped into the water just as soon as the banca motor stopped!

From Bantayan Island, we again visited another VIRGIN island and thoughts came rushing in, someday, im gonna bring my family here. Someday.

We were so tired going back to Marriott but the feeling diminished when the boss said, we are going to have a feast. Buffet dinner it was. And from there, they gave me a name, silent killer, for i silently kill whatever. hahahahah! going back to our big room,i immediately fell asleep while the others had some story telling over bottles of beer.

The next morning, boss was about to say farewell so we had breakfast at UCC before he left. Then i went with the group who was scheduled to go to Tabuan, where dried everything was being sold. I spent Php2,000 for dried pusit and daing and dried mangoes and dilis! Whoa. Then had some massage while some had their time at Redbox in Ayala. Then went back to the airport for the flight going back to Manila.

Kokok, Mama, Dad, Chok and Theng was there to fetch me, and we had a very nice late dinner at Iceberg's by the bay. ( Was supposed to be at seafood island but since that was a tuesday, we bet they were already closed.)

So that's pretty much everything that happened in Cebu. Not that detailed blog but will for sure be forever be remembered.

Anger Management

110410

If there's such a subject, im probably one of the best in class. Im quite transparent, at home and at work. But anywhere aside from the two, goodluck if you'll ever feel my anger. It keeps burning inside of me.

Family, (including my Kokok) officemates and few close friends can really tell once im in that mood. Yes im Ms. Congeniality most of the time but im also human. i get irritated and pissed too. But i kinda mastered the art of anger management. That way i see it, i call it, the Fake Set Up.

So, am i a fake person? NOt really. NOw that I admitted publicly that i am fake, its like exposing my true self. Therefore, revealing my true identity. I define fake set up as: i feel negative inside but i radiate positivity outside or most of the time silence. Just being quiet. ( so be extra careful whenever i am silent or emotionless) Now why do i do that? Simple. Because Im afraid. Afraid of myself once i burst out of anger. I tend to say a lot of negative things whenever I am mad. And most of the time, one may get hurt of what im gonna say because it is the truth. Only a few can handle it. That's why i got few close friends and A lot of so-so friends. Hmmm. ( Definition of few close friends: around 20-30 people. Few noh! hahaha! )

Hey. once you see me in that state, press it. Trigger me. Because i believe its going to give strength to our bond. Arguments make people grow. If truth be told, i like arguments. If im proven wrong, i'll grow. And if i prove someone else wrong, both of us will grow. BUt honestly, im not always brave enough to start or press an argument. Because, not all arguments build or gives growth. Its a risk too, you know? You are risking what could be something special. So what exactly am i pointing out? To argue is to choose to grow and to choose to build a stronger bond. So, if you feel like building a longer and lasting relationship with someone, dont be afraid to press an argument. Just be sure to open your mind and heart and both of you will grow and will build a true bond of friendship.

Yeah,Right.

What to say. before getting my blogging materials and settings right, i totally forgot what i was about to blog today. oh yeah. The things that i wanted to have before the year ends.

Why do i want to buy these stuffs and save more money and go to a lot of places and save more money again? ridiculous! Good thing is, whenever i calculate my cash on hand and expenses, i still manage to have a bit extra. hehe! but then, it wont really help me save the big bulk,right? here's abit of everything for those gossip girls whose been following me secretly. ( come on, yes you. :)

Just last September ( i guess) i planned of getting myself a pomerian pup! Got so excited, i googled a lot about pompoms! Then, realization bit me. Im not really into dogs! I am even scared of dogs! Heck i dont wanna clean their poops and give them bath and take them for walk and blah blah blah. So, im not gonna get one YET. (get that?) So, since im not gonna get a pompom, i'll settle for a pair of bunnies na lang! And the hermit crab that i saw in SM Megamall ( i saw the bunnies @ bioresearch, so that was like seeing two pets in one place.) But pets can wait. Because i booked a bohol trip for two for january 2,3 and 4. Yup. That's for our 4th year anniversary. We like going to different places on our anniversaries and dining at different restaurants every monthsary. Kinda pleasurable. That's why im not really surprised if a couple of witnesses would imitate what we're doing. (goodluck sayo.)

Now, this November already bought 2 dresses, waiting for the make up brushes and the palette to be delivered. And oh! Got booked to boracay naman this time, with the officemates! Hahahah! (GOsh, why cant i really be serious about my work outs and diet plan ) Plus, showing of Harry Potter this month and Chronicle of Narnia late Nov or early December. Grabe.

And for CHristmas, im planning to celebrate the holidays sa Baguio naman. Want to experience picking strawberries and wala lang, yung cool breeze sa Baguio just because its Christmas time once again. :)
