Now that's what I call a set

This is reason I did not buy the boxed set of 1-5

Bite my tongue?

Yes, I guess sometimes I hold back... Because sometimes that's the only sensible thing to do. So yes, I bite my tongue. Sometimes. But not that time.


Someone once told me it's good to be able to scream out loud when you are angry or frustrated. And I agree. I have shouted into my pillow. I used to scream inside my car. These have been, at one time or another, outlets for that minute when I was angry or that second when I was in disbelief. On a recent Thursday, I discovered to my (pleasant) surprise that one can actually scream even louder, longer. Yes, I screamed. Here. And I liked it better than the pillow or the car because here there are no limits to how far my voice would reach. And it gets better - I can't possibly run out of breath.


Indeed I love how my blog can be a place to rant, to let go into the void that is the internet.


A good friend of mine says the following of her blog:

"There's not much to find in here except for my rants, fangirling, and random bursts of geekiness. I'm a very opinionated person and there is very little that I hold sacred, so if you get offended by something I say here, move on. I won't STFU for anyone in my own journal."


And I couldn't have said it better.

In the MMO game that I play, that command would express to the world (or at least everyone close enough to hear) that my character is smiling. And I am smiling now because I am once again happy and at peace. I've had the chance to B.O.S.S. (blow off some steam), think and come to terms with the realities, uncertainties and, in lack of a better term, "injustices" that life can sometimes bring. Furthermore, I've come to realize that even though I am not the only authority in my life, I always have a choice. My happiness and very sanity anchor on the choices I make. And so I make a choice - and it is one that makes a difference.

I'm still alive...

and well. It's been a while since I've been able to post here mostly because of two reasons:
  1. New role - which means I am ever so busy and I don't have the 'spare time' at work anymore... I simply love this new role by the way. Lotsa new things to learn, new people to meet and more responsibilities. Oh and I get to ask silly interview questions too like #45 which goes like "If you were an animal, what would you be?" Nah, just kidding. We skip the silly questions but I remember getting asked that when I was looking for work last year.
  2. New hobby - I've started playing WOW (post-BC) as I mentioned and I've been spending a lot of time getting my toon to cap. And now that Ilythia's capped I'm spending a lot of time still, this time getting her geared up. Yay! It's a fun hobby - cheap, but very time consuming

The same reasons why I am not current with my emails anymore *sigh* and my snail mail and my laundry haha :)

So what else is new?

  • Our little girl turned two. We are simply blessed.
  • Our car got carnapped but we purchd a new one. The car eventually got found anyway, dumped by the side of a road with the ignition busted. The cops (they should be called police officers btw) say it was probably used for another crime which, if true, I am hoping was burglary and not homicide. Anyway we sold the car to another kababayan but not before paying $200 at the impound (Just fantastic Calgary! Make the victims pay!)
  • I am now baking as well. Woohoo! I have the best cheescake and chocolate krinkle recipes which I will (eventually) post in my other blog dedicated to food.

Lastly, if any of my family and friends back home are reading this, I really miss you guys so very much. You can bet I'll be hopping on Friendster soon to check out your profiles so please update your pics and that column that says "Single/In a relationship" :D Take care and God bless. And I don't normally do this but what the heck --- Muah!!
