It's been a while

I miss you blog, super!

So what's been happening to me these last few weeks? Since I'm sleepy and tired as of the moment, I'll just update in bullets.. hehe tamad style :)

*I'm learning how to cook! Oh well, not really.. haha. But I now perfected (almost) how to peel and cut onions and garlics. Plus green mangoes too. And yeah, my fingers are still complete! :)

*I'm eating vegetables more often now since I'm leaving in an accommodation. And would you believe that it's my first time to try Togue (bean sprouts), Monggo, and Tortang talong (without meat)? Haha Poor me, right? That's because I'm a meat lover ever since childhood. But I'm terribly missing hotdogs and maling. :(

*I'm now adjusted with my work. Somehow I can manage on my own now. But of course, sometimes I still ask for help.. hehe. By the way, my job here in Dubai is nurse/receptionist/secretary/insurance coordinator/cleaner/care taker/guard. Too much to handle, eh?

*I met new friends and it's making my stay in Dubai more fun! Special shout-out to Ate Minie whom I met last friday. Thank you again for the nice company, Ate. :) I promised that I won't call you Miss Minie anymore.. haha.

*I've realized that it's not okay to be kind and polite to everybody. Sometimes, you really have to fight for your rights. You don't have to smile and just agree to every single word a person, even your superior, tells you. If they're telling you to do things that you know are wrong, then don't do it. And you don't have to say sorry always especially if it's not your fault. We have to be tough in this cruel world.

*I'm really thankful to our technology today, especially to facebook, ym, skype, roaming services, and of course, blogs.. haha. I'm able to keep in touch with my friends in the Philippines and all over the world because of these.

*Finally, I've realized that it's difficult to be a daughter (who's living away from her parents), granddaughter (who's living away from her grand parents), niece (to her aunt who's having health problems but doesn't want to visit a doctor), employee (whose legal papers are still in process and who's living in a house with strangers with different personalities), friend (who MUST keep in touch with the ones she have in the Philippines and here in Dubai), and an individual (who does everything for herself). But nonetheless, I'm still thankful that I have a job and I'm earning on my own! Haha.

So there. I'm really busy with my life right now and I know I must thank God for all of these. :)

This is my bed in our accommodation. I know it's a bit messy.. haha

Atlantis

(Am I getting fatter now? :( Because almost all of my friends who went here really gained weight so I'm a bit conscious with every kilo and inch I'm gaining. I hope I'll stay the same or at least lose weight some more! haha)

'Till next entry my dear blog. I promise to update you soon.

PS: One of my friends from college is also here in Dubai. He just arrived a week ago (I think). And I'm really excited to see him on friday! It's nice that I have someone now whom I can talk to about anything and everything, especially the problems I'm encountering here.. hahaha. But I won't tell you this part of my life now.

Goodnight world! Especially to my friends, blogmates, and lurkers. :)

Something light :)

Have you seen facebook nowadays? They have a lot of hilarious facebook applications that you can be a fan of. Take this image (above) for instance.. Haha. I can't believe that 5 of my friends bought that and ended up being a fan!

But I have to agree with this application. In my 23 years of living as a female specie in this world, the-not-so-good-looking guys are actually more of a ladies' magnet than the handsome ones. In my opinion, men who can handle witty conversations with the ladies, and those who can make us laugh are more charming than boring and vain pretty boys.

So if you're a guy reading this, there are still plenty of women who would choose men with brains than those who stare at their faces in the mirror every chance they get.



Eventhough I've agreed with that application, I didn't click the became a fan button.

But I'm a fan of MELASON (Jason and Melissa's love team from PBB double up), Vice Ganda, Hindi ako nanglalait, sinasabi ko lang ang nakikita ko, and many other senseless (stupid.. haha) applications. I just so love facebook which made me delete my friendster account. Friendster has just become so boring after I've registered in facebook.

Anyhoo, there's no doubt that friendster really made a huge impact in our networking lives. But then, facebook is more awesome! Haha.. sorry friendster. But remember that you would always be my first love that I will never forget. :)
