Happy New Year! [Sunday January 3rd, 2010 @ 12:20pm] I believe GOD is doing a new thing for all of us this 2010. Ten Times Better! 1 beastnoid SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

Gelatissimo [Monday December 28th, 2009 @ 8:31pm] [ mood | amused ] My officemates and I tried out Gelatissimo a while ago after having lunch. It is one of the newly opened stores in Greenbelt 5. They are still in their soft opening. I really like everything about the place. You can get to try each and every flavors before you can place your orders. I tried Forest Berries, Ferrero Rocher (I forgot the real name), Biscotino, White Choc-Hazelnut, and Pistachio. I got the large one, 3 flavors for only 190 Pesos - Biscotino, White Choc-Hazelnut, and Pistachio, and shared it with Joy. I was really impressed with one of their crews, Mark (Yes, i get to ask for His name). He displayed SERVICE in its truest sense. Before he got my order, a lady asked if they could have an overflowing of gelato in their cup and Mark did it with assurance. When it's my turn, I asked if i could have some of the nuts and He volunteered to garnish my cup with hazelnuts and chocolate chips. He went inside the kitchen and did my cup and came back and served it to me with a smile. wow! I was really impressed. My friends know how i get easily pissed off when I'm getting a really bad service but Mark did his job with excellence and passion, even in simple gestures. My wish is for Him to go a long way. Try Gelatissimo, their gelato is really good and their servings are more than enough to satisfy your cravings.  SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

Merry Christmas, Everyone! [Monday December 28th, 2009 @ 7:12pm] [ mood | happy ] This is one of the BEST-est Christmas Season I ever Had. Party here, there, and everywhere! * * * December 4: I attended Montecito Properties, Inc. Christmas Party after our PTG at Site. I'm really touched how simple are the joys of the people there.  The Hep-Hep-Hooray is a crowd pleaser.   December 8: Our Project Teams for Abrio-Montecito-Santierra-Westgrove decided to have a one BIG Christmas Party. It was helluva fun! Andami ring food - Lechon Baka, Lechon Baboy, Lechon Manok, Sugpo, Veggies, Calderetang Kambing, Baked Pastel, Carbonara, etc. It's cool seeing all of the project teams gather together for this once in a lifetime event. Haha! I got a Parker Ballpoint Pen in our exchange gift. December 9: I attended my first ALI-wide Christmas Party. Ms. Jean gave me a ticket. I really owe a lot to her. Our Big Bosses, FZA and ATA, knows how to dance. Amazing! We gave our loudest cheers to Fiona and MG while dancing Nobody and to Petes doing the Hush! Hush! moves - the grand prize went to the AMG team who danced Thriller which is really scary. The party is a bit toned-down, as the older generations say, but it was still fun! December 11: We had our very first IDG-ALP Studio Site Familiarization and Team Building at Anvaya Cove. It's my first time also to try the enticing waters of Anvaya - to the highest level ang lamig ng tubig ng pool. It was tiring but we learned a lot from Sir Manny and we all had a sumptuous lunch and dinner. December 14: It's kuya Bobby's Birthday and we celebrated it at Super Bowl Glorietta. We never really had time to spend more time since he still needs to treat his office friends at the Mall of Asia. My sister and I just accompanied Robbie to play at TimeZone Greenbelt 3. December 16: It's Mari's birthday and we had lunch at Go Greek Glorietta Food Choices. It's also revelation time for the Kids' Kris Kringle. My baby is Andre and he caught me putting my gift for him in his table days before the revelation time. Stupid me. hehe! I got a Faling Forward book by John Maxwell from my Daddy Jason. As a teaser, he gave me a Precious Hearts Romances Pocketbook which is funny of Him. December 17: The Anvaya Team had lunch at Panciteria San Jacinto near Tiendesitas in Pasig. The food was really great. I was kinda touched when they invited me knowing that I only got involved in planning one of the Neighborhoods in Anvaya. After that, I headed back toward Tower One for Jean's Baby Shower. I gave her 3 differently colored booties inside a pink heart-shaped container. The booties symbolizes my wish for her Baby to go places when she grows up, 3 pieces meant "Love Your baby" and the heart-shaped container reminds her to "Always put your baby inside your heart." I won the Best Sucker Award in one of the games - first to finish the iced tea inside a feeding bottle. December 18: We celebrated the much anticipated Moroccan-themed IDG Christmas Party. I hosted the event for the second time. I wore a Davao-made green suit with gold linings and off-white Katsa Pants accented by Green and White Plaid Scarf and Red Fez with gold tussels. The food was great and the party is fun. We danced the night away.  It's my first time also to try the Shisha (I'm just not sure of the spelling). I went home with three Classic Confections Christmas-themed Pastries. December 19: Our High School Batch (Thales-Dalton-Riemann) celebrated our annual Christmas Party at FlapJack's Greenbelt 2. I ordered Baby Back Ribs and we got two complimentary 4-layered pancakes. Though the attendance didn't get to beat last year's I can still say that the get together is still worth attending. We capped the night at Gilligan's Glorietta where some of our High School deepest secrets have been revealed. Disturbing! December 20: I hosted the Church Sunday School's Christmas Party. It was touching to see the kids havin' fun in the simplest of gifts and gestures that this season brings. I taught about the importance of giving and i hope that many children's heart are touched as well.  December 21: The family went to Trinoma to buy some Christmas presents and apparel for Robbie. I bought a pair of pants at Giordano. We ate at Super Bowl. It was memorable since it's been a while when we shopped all together for the season. December 22: I had dinner with my friends from Victory U-belt at Pia y Damaso Restaurant in Greenbelt 5. We had a White Elephant Exhange gift - i got one bar of Cadbury's newest Chocolate variant and two Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bar. I gave one pack of Marks and Spencer's Assorted Eclairs. Me participating in the exchange gift was an improptu that's why I gave that kind of gift, at least the person who got it liked the eclairs. December 23: The kids of IDG had dinner at Dencio's Paseo Center. Our conversation there is so controversial. Haha! The core bits went with me to buy a shirt at Regatta in Greenbelt 3. December 24: Our family hosted our Noche Buena together with Auntie Nene's and Kuya Raffy's Family. We celebrated it in our house. I bought Baked Salmon, Chicken Relleno, and Mango Bravo at Conti's for the Dinner. Auntie Nene brought Baked Mac from Meals to Go, Ice Cream and two bottles of White Wine. My mom prepared hot chocolate, fruit salad, and macaroni salad. Dad brought some Lechon Kawali which is really yummy and tasty.  I prepared the table setting which i usually do to create some ambience of luxury in our small house. haha! My sister did all the dishes which i volunteered in the first place. Robbie already got his PSP wish from Santa. December 25: I already have 15 "ina-anaks" but only 8 came. It's my first time also to give some money for  my other nieces and nephews even if I'm not their Ninong. It just made me realize that Christmas really is a time for giving and when you give to others you really feel good about yourself. Next year kakaririn ko na ng todo ang pagbibigay! It really is not about the amount that you give but the joy and gratitude that you share to other people. After dinner, the cousins set up a long table and a videoke machine in the eskinita for some fellowship. We had a red wine for that. I sing my heart out the whole night! whew! Diva mode. December 27: The volunteer teachers at the Sunday School Ministry went to the Mall of Asia for some fellowship. We ate at Avennetto and had coffee at Starbucks. This is the first time that we really bond and spend some time to get know each other personally in a deeper level.  * * * I just wish that the remaining days of 2009 will be this happy and even more. I really can't help but thank GOD for the wonderful Christmas he gave us. As what Pastor Mel preached during Christmas, this season is a time for God's Miracles and Breakthroughs to come in our lives. Truly, this is what Christmas is all about, when God gave his Son Jesus Christ as a reminder of His love for the whole of mankind. SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

[Monday December 28th, 2009 @ 5:47pm] After months of being busy with work and other stuffs, I'm planning to re-update my blog. It's one of my New Year's Resolutions that I'm planning to start today. SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

Of Being an Architect... [Saturday September 5th, 2009 @ 10:56am] [ mood | enthralled ] It's been a while since I posted an entry here in LJ. Well, a lot of things have happened and changed, particularly of me becoming a Registered, Licensed, and Professional Architect. Yeah, I must admit, I'm still in the state of euphoria and how i wish i could stay on to that forever. hehe! Before I was just dreaming of possessing those little PRC Card and heavy dry seal imprinted with a title of an Architect, and then suddenly I woke up and found myself basking in the limelight.  Whew!  After having said "So, help me, God" in the Oath-Taking, slowly, the duties, responsibilities, and role of being an Architect are starting to set in. It is really significant, I must say. I'm starting to realize, I'm not a kid anymore. My "school" and "internship" years are finally over. I won't be worrying anymore of not seizing every opportunity to learn everything i need that will be of great help in my boards. I am now a professional. It won't be awkward now to write "Architect" as your profession, to name yourself as such, and to let others call you with that title. I can now choose which field I can specialize.  I am secured now of myself, of what I can do, and what I am about to offer. I can now plan my future and what I want to do.    * * * With all these, I owe it all to GOD. he really is the One who made all of these happen. Without Him, I don't know where I will be right now. He had led me into the right path and I really know that He is slowly working His plans into my Life - His good and perfect will for me. Let all the glory and honor belong to Him. * * * Here are some of the momentous dates that led me into the fulfillment of my dream: May 23: I moved into Alvin's house in Sta. Cruz, Manila together with Redmond and Royce. This has been my home during the last month before the boards.   June 1: My first day of study leave from the office. Start of the most comprehensive self-review I ever had. (Though I'm still finishing my review classes in the review center at this time) June 4: I submitted all my requirements in my application for PRC. June 11: Start of the Refresher Course - and still it's not a refresher for me. June 23: Last day of Review Class. June 24: Room assignments had been released, Day 1, Room 403, Seat no. 2, Monzon Hall, Manuel L. Quezon University June 25: The day before the exam. I'm supposed to relax and unwind but I'm still catching up on my review. Still haven't read most parts of Building Technology and Building Materials. We went to PRC to confirm our applications and to MLQU to verify our room assignments. I slept at around 2 am. I can't sleep. June 26: The moment of truth. Day 01 of the Exam. I had a hard time answering the questions. Not that I don't know the answer, it's more of the questions are a little bit tricky. I checked my answers and questionnaires four times before finalizing my answer into the answer sheet.                  AM: History and Theory of Architecture, Planning, and Professional Practice (100 items)                  PM: Building Technology, Building Materials, Building Utilities, and Structural (150 items) June 27: Break. I slept the whole day but practiced doing perspectives during the night. June 28: Last day of Exam. Architectural Design and Site Planning. BP 220: Socialized Housing Project - Single-attached, Duplex, and Row House Prototypes of Houses with Site Planning. Whew! is all I can say. Very Very Tricky and too many design requirements. June 29 - July 27: The hardest part of all - waiting for the results. More sleepless nights than reviewing. More worried than ever before. More crying, wishful thinking, and dreaming moments. This is really the part where all you can do is surrender to GOD everything and let Him take control of the situation. You can do nothing anymore but surely God is still able - and He surely did. July 28: I really tried to sleep early on the night of 27 so I won't feel the need to anticipate for the results. I had a deal with my friends in the office to just send me a text message if the result is already out without letting me know if i pass or not. I don't want to expect and be frustrated when I know that it's already midnight and still nobody is congratulating me. But i didn't expect that some of my friends, whom I forgot to had a deal with and relatively who are also all so eager to see the results, texted me congratulations. At 2 am I was awaken by a dream that I already passed the Board exam and even got the sixth highest rank. Truely, dreams still can come true, though I'm not in the 6th place, at least I passed the Board Exam - and that is the start of everything. August 30: One month after getting awe on passing the Board Exam, there I was, inside the Fiesta Pavilion of the Manila Hotel, along with my family , friends, and all other successful examinees, standing in front of the PRBoA and all other witnesses, taking my Oath as an Architect and pledging that I will take my profession seriously and wisely and use that privilege, not a right, in helping to build a better world... (Yes! pang pageant lang!)   * * *   And still I'm delighted with all that's happening. * * *  P.S. Pictures to follow. SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

Favor [Monday March 16th, 2009 @ 12:15pm] [ mood | grateful ] I'm just so happy and grateful today! One of our proponents in Montecito, Arch. Jean San Juan-Yap, gave me a book early this morning. That book is called "A Visual Dictionary of Architecture" I'm so shocked and overwhelmed. * * * For the non-archi people out there, A Visual Dictionary of Architecture is one of the many "Bible" of Architecture. It is a must-have for all aspiring architects, especially for those who will be taking the board exam, like me. Having it is like guaranteeing that you will pass the boards. Most of the questions and illlustrations required came from there.  I don't have that book way back in college because of two things: 1. It is a hard-to-find book. It is available on Powerboks once in a Blue Moon. Joli's only has a photocopy of it. 2. It is expensive. At first, i just thought that Ms. Jean will just lend me a photocopy of that book ever since i told her that I'm starting to prepare for the board exam. But i was just shocked when she handed me early this morning a plastic bag of Powerbooks with a gift - wrapped in a bronze gift wrapper with a white ribbon and a card that says, "Dearest Rommel, Here's a simple token of thanks for always helping me. I know you have a long way to go. Keep it up, Mr. Efficient. - Jean" When i opened the gift, Voila! It was the book I ever wanted. i'm trying not to cry since I'm in the office but the tears of joy can't be hidden. I'm just so thankful. * * * I really thank God for really blessing me with that book. It is not a hidden fact that I'm in a financial crisis right now and though buying lots and lots of reviewers is a top priority, photocopying for me is the most practical thing to do. So, having been given an original copy of the book that is hard to find and expensive is really overwhelming. I also thank God that I've found favors in the eyes of my Superiors and bosses. I never knew that by just doing your work excellently will result in great wonders and incomparable favors. I'm keeping this verse in my workplace and let it be posted in my cubicle: "Be sure to do what you should, for then you will enjoy the personal satisfaction of having done your work well, and you won't need to compare yourself with anyone else." - Galatians 6:4 * * * It's just so amazing how God works in wonders. I'm praying to Him for the past few days about His direction on when to take the board exam. Though I still haven't heard his answer last week, I already told myself that I will take it next January. I already did a draft of my Review schedule and I came out with an idea of starting my "real personal comprehensive review" by the 3rd week of March which is March 16, Monday and kick it off with the Visual Dictionary of Architecture for two weeks then by the first week of April, I will start with the Subject Courses beginning with the National Building Code. God's timing is always perfect. Today is my first day of personal review and He perfectly provided me with the book that I will be needing. I can't help but be in awe. As a Pastor once preached, "God's plan entails provision". So, whatever plan and will God has in store for you, He will also provide you with the things that you will be needing in order for you to fulfill that wonderful plan. So I guess that my plan is in direction with God's plan for me too.  * * * Sometimes I wonder do I really deserve all the favors and blessings that God is bestowing upon me. I think that I am not that worthy to receive all of those but it just glorifies God all the more knowing that in times of faithlessnes, GOD remains faithful. * * * Just a fact, Arch. Jean is Top 10 when she took her board exams last 2002 I think (the year when Rico Yan died). I'm now pressured to pass the board exam. Haha!   SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

twilight [Thursday November 27th, 2008 @ 12:34pm] [ mood | high ] can't get over twilight. * * *  i still haven't read the book but after watching the movie last night, i'm just so excited to read it. i'm moved by some parts of the movie especially with the dialogues. * * * you are my life now...shox my hair! * * * i watched the movie together with my officemates here in ALI and two from Alveo and Avida. it was a fun bonding time. * * * i just feel so inspired. 4 beastnoids SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

[Tuesday November 18th, 2008 @ 12:48pm] Chris Brown is just awesome! i watched the concert last Monday night and He just rocked The Fort Open Field. Talk about 'Da Moves', pare! tas may charming smile pa... * * * I think Rihanna and Chris Brown looked good together. They have this certain kind of chemistry/attraction especially when they did a duet for Umbrella as a finale for their concert. SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

6 months and still counting... [Monday June 23rd, 2008 @ 4:07pm] [ mood | thankful ] I'm 6 months already in my current work. I'm looking forward for another year to be able to complete my Apprenticeship Program for Architecture. Actually, I don't know if I'm going to take the boards by June next year. It's like I'm not yet prepared. There're so much to know. I still need to be familiarized with construction details and materials specification. I'm kinda bad at them.  * * * My first 6 months here in AyalaLand seem to fly so fast. I can still rememeber the days when I used to render almost 8 hours of overtime in previous work during biddings. The feeling of uncertainty, fear, and worry are still fresh when i first gave my resignation letter. I'm so confused then whether I will resign or not. Nonetheless, I do believe I made the right move...the right choice. * * * I can't believe that in a span of six months, I'll be able to experience how it is to be in a real estate industry...to be included in one of the country's leading companies who enhance lands and enrich lives. I'll be forever thankful that GOD placed me in a position that i really want. He allowed me to work with people who are well known in the industry. He has given to one of the best mentors that I could ever have. He provided great opportunity for field exposure, project involvement, and growth for broader knowledge and learning. I could never thank Him much. * * * From this, I'm looking forward for more. More means a wider scope of work exposure and involvement. I want also to experience different ALI projects aside from land development. I want to be immersed in vertical projects such as condominiums, office buildings, and malls. I wan to handle project that I could really own. As of now, i do project coordinations. I wish someday I cou Again, I have so much to know and I wish i have so much to share. * * * This is one of the three projects that I've been involved. Montecito. The Entrance Marker. Our Model House. Greenway Feature at each lot's backyard. Pasatiempo. The Nature Pavilion. The Lakeside District. Pretty Ducks. The Fishing Deck. This is my first project for Montecito. I'm so proud of it. With that simple deck, many children's hearts are filled with joy. You can actually fish tilapia in the man-made lake. Lots and lots of big tilapia for catch. Me, fishing for tilapia. *** Find the small tilapia that i caught *** With our Project Proponents. First time to ride a golf car. Too bad I have no picture while driving it. Ironically there is no golf course inside the subdivision. It is only used for the launching. Unveiling of Logo during the Product Launch. My vintage photo beside the vintage car during the launch. Nice shot! Inside the vintage car. Yup, it's still working. * * * i can't wait to see the finished outcome of this project. I hope we attain our target sales this year. More pictures to come with other projects that I handle. SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

[Monday November 12th, 2007 @ 9:57pm] [ mood | happy ]  GOD has again answered my prayer! C'mown! * * * Our e-bidding for One Serendra Phase 2B Sections D&E - CP-03A: Supply & Installation of Stone Countertops has just ended. We were the lowest bidder. Me and one of my mentors in the company closed it. The starting bid price is Php 9,700,000.00 and we closed it at Php 6,460,00.00. Bagsak presyo although pasok pa rin naman siya sa selling price namin. * * * Though confident naman ako sa mga quantities ko, still may takot at kaba pa rin akong nararamdaman. It's my first time to participate in an e-bid event and It's really mixed emotions. Pag pasok ko pa lang sa bidding cubicle, i'm super nervous na kagad. but as the bidding goes on, nawala na yung kaba. naglalaro laro pa ako sa pagpindot ng presyo, parang deal or no deal lang. kwentuhan at kanatahan pa kaming dalawa ng sir ko sa loob ng cubicle. pero nung pababa na yung presyo, around Php 7,000,000.00 medyo tumahimik na kami ng boss ko. labanan talaga ito. Php 20,000.00 and decrement. akala namin mako-close na namin sya sa Php 6.8Mbut on the last two seconds may nag-enter pa ng amount. eventually, the two competitors gave up and we closed it at 6.46M. * * * Grabe, sobrang favor ni GOD. He knows how much i wanted it to close. And he did favored upon our company. Sulit lahat ng pagpupuyat ko hanggang 4am sa office for the last 3 days. * * * Newei, the project is not yet awarded to us, the quantities and prices are still subject for evaluation so i still have to review my quantities. * * * I really thank GOD for this experience. His grace is endless. and His love is eternal. At least may naicontribute naman ako sa company namin. 1 beastnoid SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

romans 8:28 [Tuesday October 30th, 2007 @ 8:26pm] [ mood | happy ] natalo si dad kahapon sa barangay elections. (He ran as punong barangay) it's ok. tanggap namin. madami namang factors kung bakit siya natalolike hindi kami masyadong prepared, wala masyadong flyers to make him known in our community, independent candidate siya at wala siyang kagawad to add up to the number of his votes. however, madami kaming lessons na na-realize: - mahirap umasa sa tao kung susuportahan ka nila o hindi. - politics is politics. - marami palang sinungaling at plastik - mahahalata mo pala sa tao kung guilty siya o hindi - kung gusto mo palang matest ang faithfulness at loyalty ng kaibigan mo, tumakbo ka sa pulitika! haha! - minsan, kung sino pa yung mga inaasahan mong susuporta sa iyo, sila pa yung maglalaglag sa'yo * * * hindi ako bitter or anything. actually, nakakatuwa kasi alam mong sinagot ni GOD yung prayer mo. sinagot kasi prayer mismo ni Dad kay LORD na kung ikasisira lang ng pagkatao niya o ng pamilya namin ang pagiging chairman wag na lang siyang manalo, although deep inside of Him marami siyang gustong tulungan. and hindi lang naman sa pagkakaroon ng position sa gobyerno ka pwedeng makatulong sa tao. masaya kasi alam mong secured ka kay GOD. secured kami kasi alam namin na GOD has better plans.  and yun, natutunan namin na it is better to trust in GOD pa rin than to trust in man. * * * basta ang saya lang, mas lalo kong nakilala si GOD. i had a chance to encourage my dad before siyang mag speech sa miting de avance. i texted him a verse from 2 Chronicles 20:15-17 "Do not be dismayed or discouraged ...for the battle is not yours, but GOD's!...Go down against your enemies for the LORd God is with you" natalo man si Dad sa election but i know eventually people will see, especially those who tried to put him down, that the real victory is yet to come!  * * * i prayed that this experience will become a turning point for my Dad to have an encounter with GOD. Tough times like these bring a humbling experience for our whole family. it gives us an opportunity to encourage one another and make our family bonding closer and  I am happy because I know that God is molding our character, making us strong in our every battle. though tears may appear in our eyes but these tears will harvest joy and thanksgiving to the LORD. * * * i'm uberly happy to what GOD is doing in our family. Romans 8:28 pa rin ang verse namin ngayon. * * * p.s. Tito ko nga pala ang nanalo bilang chairman. kaya parang hindi rin kami natalo kasi kamag-anak pa rin naman namin yung panalo! hehe!

mourning [Monday October 8th, 2007 @ 12:58pm] [ mood | depressed ] for the past few days our family has been mourning for the lost of our two beloved relatives, my cousin, ate oggie, and my aunt, mommy ellen (both from my mother side) one and a half weeks lang ang pagitan nila. it really is a disheartening experience for the whole family lalo na when my aunt died kasi she and my mom together with their other sister, auntie nene are very close. they would play mah jong every weekend or just spend some time with each other. we used to call them tres marias but now one already passed away. it makes me so sad that our family gatherings will never be the same again. time goes and things change, we really can't hold on to something forever. * * * i really can't help but ask GOD why are these happening. though deep inside of me i know that only GOD knows and HE knows best. * * * this is one of the times when my spirit reached its lowest point and that my faith in GOD is slightly bruised for the past heartaches and dispappointments that's been happening to me, whether big deal or not. but nevertheless, GOD really knows how to comfort you in times of despair and griefs. He really is faithful when He said that He will turn your mournings into dancing and your sorrows into joy! GOD knows how to secure you with his love and tender mercies. I can't explain how but all i know that we're ok now. * * * By the way, tomorrow will be the cremation of my tita. * * * i'm keeping my faith in GOD that something good will come out of it and that His name will still be glorified. 8 beastnoids SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

torn among the three [Friday September 28th, 2007 @ 8:15pm] [ mood | confused ] last wednesday, nagtext ung HR recruitment ng Ayala Land. Their asking if i can still apply for their company for an apprencticeship job. Sabi ko why not, pero hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin ako nagsa-submit ng updated resume ko. and then two weeks ago naman, in-offeran din ako to work as an architectural apprentice din sa Every Nation (Victory Christian Fellowship, Fort Global City Branch) primarily, i will help in the design conceptualization and implementation of the future churches that they will be planting. un kasi ung focus ng church ngayon. i also still hasn't submitted my resume. so what's holding me back? kasi a month ago, naghahanap na ng new employees ang compnay namin for new york. and may possibility na kung hindi man ako yung maqualify to work there, kapag pinadala naman yung in-house designer namin dun, mas malaki yung possibility na ako yung pumalit sa pwesto niya. actually nakausap na ako ng boss ko regarding that, kaso wala pa akong fianl answer, sabi ko pag-iisipan ko pa. and hindi rin ma-implement yun kasi wala pang papalit sa current position ko. GRABE na itu! Hindi ko na alam yung pipiliin ko. parang nothing to lose kasi lahat eh. First, kung sa AYALA, eh Ayala na yun eh, no need for further explanation. Second, kung sa VCF naman, may chance na akong to practice my course, which is architecture, so experience na yun plus nakakapag-ministry pa ako sa church. Third, sa current work ko naman ngayon, it's either New York or In-house Designer ang promotion ng lolo mo. oh di ba? san ka pa? hindi ako makapagdecide. I'm really praying for GOD's will. kung saan ba talaga ako gustong mapunta ni GOD. sabi nga ng church friend ko "Hindi lahat ng open doors ay GOD's will...kelangan maging sensitive ka to know what GOD really wants for you..." so ayun, hindi pa rin sumasagot si GOD tuwing magka-quiet time ako. puro pa rin pagdidisiplina sa akin...(naging bad boy kasi ako these past few days eh) Yun rin siguro ung isa mga reasons kung bakit wala pang sagot kasi gusto pa nya akong iprepare ng maayos. kelangan na ng matinding fasting itu! any suggestions? baka sumagot si GOD thorugh you...HEHE! 1 beastnoid SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

it's been a while... [Friday September 28th, 2007 @ 7:57pm] [ mood | drained ] kakatapos lang ng isa sa mga dreaded moments ko sa work... nagkaproblema yung yellow onyx stone ko sa healthy options powerplant mall. (pictures to be posted as soon as i visited the project site) nadagdagan yung sukat ng bato na pina-fabricate ko. imbles na 228mm naging 288mm. tas may polishing pa yun. nakakahiya, nag-open at blessing ang store kanina ng wala yung mga bato ko. nakakahiya most primarily kay Mr. Romy Sia (Owner ng Healthy Options) at kay Eng'r Mon, ung contractor nila. tapos, hindi pa kumpleto yung requirements ko for submittal ng One Serendra Phase 2B Bidding. Wala akong framing and support samples puro stone samples na wala namang technical specs. pero, good thing is GOD helped me make it through! Sobrang grace at favor ang binigay ni GOD sa akin. nadeliver ko naman yung onyx stone today and ung stone samples although to follow ung iba. but still, nabawasan ang iniintindi ko. i still need to finish a lot of things kasi as of the moment limang projects for quotation ang nakasalang sa akin plus the serendra bid and the on-going residential project that I handle. hindi pa kasama ang personal residential projects ko.. hay! too many things to do, so little time. tas, hindi ko pa mami-meet yung hs basketball varsity ng chiang kai shek tomorrow for an outreach group.  excellence sa ministry, work, and career nasan ka? i still hold on to GOD's help pa rin. without HIM i don't know kung ano ng mangyayari sa akin ngayon. HE really never fails me, an ever present help in trouble. My refuge and my strength.  newei, gotta go! I just want the world to know what marvelous things GOD has done for me. SELF-DESTRUCT!!!

[Tuesday September 11th, 2007 @ 1:05pm] [ mood | content ]  kapag inaatake ako ng insecurity sa katawan, kagaya ng mga panahong ito, isa lang ang palagi kong pinipilit ipasok sa isip ko: "I will rejoice for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." - Psalm 139:14 ginawa ako ni GOD na ganito ang itsura kaya alam kong may may magagawa akong maganda dito kahit na sa paningin ng ibang tao ay pangit.. 2 beastnoids SELF-DESTRUCT!!!
