The WEEK. June 8 to June 14.

Hi everyone. So much has happened during the last week. I was already transferred to a new department last Monday. Hmmm, the transfer was abrupt and we don’t have a working area last week so we spent 2 days inside a conference room. However, on Tuesday afternoon, they already gave us a temporary working area on a different floor.. We were supposed to be located on the 9th floor but we were placed on 7th. haha.

Last June 12 was a holiday, Philippine Independence Day, so my family and I went on a holiday trip. We went to Aurora province. The province is famous for its beach because it is a good site for amateur surfers. However, we were not able to reserve rooms near the beach so we had to stay farther. The place we’re staying at has a nice view of the pacific ocean too. haha.. but it is too rocky to go swim in the sea so we just picked hermit crabs.

hermit crabs everywhere! one urchin there though.

Sabang beach in the afternoon.

Instead of swimming in the sea, we spent the weekend going to falls and rivers. On Saturday, we left the resort early to see the Mother Falls. We drove to the nearby town and hiked 2 kilometers to go see the actual falls and take a dip in the river. It was super cold! The edge of the river was constructed to make it like a dam, forming a pool. The water is not too deep but the force of the falling water is felt everywhere. We had to leave when a crowd is already forming everywhere.

first river to cross.

all you see is moss and rocks and trees.

real life temple run.

almost there.

We left the falls around 10 in the morning to have lunch. We left Aurora province around 2:30 in the afternoon after running around Baler for souvenirs. We arrived home around 9 in the evening.

Sunday came and I have to leave for Manila again. I got into an accident. The bus I was riding was hit by another bus that was hit by a truck. Nobody was severely hurt but some people was pushed forward. I also strained my neck when I hit my head twice in the seat in front of me. Luckily, it was not the hard part I bumped into. So yeah, the casualty is my nail. It was broken so I had to shorten all my fingernails to match the damaged one. Haha.

All in all, despite the accident in the end, I had a good week. I hope this week will be better. I may have less adventures this week, but i hope it’ll still be fun.. 🙂

An Open Letter To All Of My Friends Who Take Selfies

nice way of putting it. well said. 😀 to all my selfie-taking friends (and also to myself). nice read!

The Belle Jar

Dear Friends Who Take Selfies,

I want you to know that I love it when you post pictures of yourself. I know selfies get a lot of bad press, but I think they’re rad. They give me a little window into your life, and you’d be amazed at how much I can get out of one little photo.

I love your pictures because I love seeing what you’re wearing – the outfits you build give me ideas about how to mix it up with my own wardrobe, and seeing you work your shit gives me courage to try clothing that I otherwise might have thought was too outlandish or revealing.

I love seeing how you do your hair and makeup. You look like a hot babe and I wish you would make YouTube tutorials explaining how you get your eyeliner just so. I want you to post pictures every time you change your…

CHILLLIN’

I was able to relax this week. Thank goodness! Haha..

so long. au revoir.

Laying it all out.

I am going to be happy and no one can stop me.

Greetings!
I have been an emotional rollercoaster lately. My life had a really sharp turn for the past few months since I have passed the board exam and took a new job. I currently feel good so I will tell you my story.

I am a certified public accountant in the Philippines who works as an auditor for one of the biggest auditing firms in the country. However, as the time passes, I am slowly realizing that I hate the job. I cannot see the purpose of what I do. Ask me what we do and I can answer you but I cannot see the meaning of it.

One month after starting with the job, I had my first panic attack. It was a saturday and my first senior has required me to pass something the next day. I have just finished my training but what she was asking me to do was not discussed. I was at a loss and I just kept on guessing and praying I’d get it right. I was able to meet her deadline but the price of that was massive pouring of tears. I was at the point wherein I already called my mom to bail me out. I did not stop crying until my dad scolded me for being such a crybaby. However, my feelings did not change. I just stopped calling for their comfort.

Weeks and months passed and I thought I had convinced myself that I can do it. I managed to keep my smiling face up most of the office time. I had everyone believe that I love what I am doing. That was my mistake. Now everyone thinks I am this chill girl at work. Little did they know that I still cry from time to time.

It is almost 7 months now and I still feel bad about going to work. I realized I am starting to have bad habits like complaining most of the time and talking bad about other people behind their back. I have also been slacking at work which causes delay in my deliverables. This is a bad sign for me. I am afraid I’d go berserk soon. I even have my phone on airplane mode right now while typing this. (Yes senior, I have been avoiding you!)

I have decided that I will just finish my contract with the Company and go. I am no longer happy with the work environment. (I no longer want to be treated as an object.) Only wanting to go to work when you do not have to work is not a good sign and working for this Company has made me a negaholic. You can give me a checklist of all the negatove thoughts you can think of and I can check almost a hundred percent of it. The most freadful downside of this was sometimes I feel that my connection with the Lord waivers. I am not the super religious kind of person but I always talk to Him before. Now, I feel guiltg moat of the time because I feel like I have been ignoring Him. I am no longer grateful and have been concentrating on the bad things that happened to me.

I shall recover from that. With the help of friends and myself, I know I can do this. I will lie if I tell you that I have not thought of putting myself away but I am not that crazy to actually do it. It won’t solve anything.

I just thought of a new way that could maybe help me. I call it GRATEFUL FIVE. Everyday you write 5 stuffs that you are thankful for. As much as possible, write something different from what you wrote the other day. This way, when you look back at your notes, you will have different things to be thankful for. Also, post it somewhere you can always see so you always remember to be thankful.

So goodluck with me and I hope I could recover from this soon. I also hope I was able to help someone who’s reading this.

Thank you for reading. Let’s be happy today and for the rest of our tomorrows.

Mic

so long. au revoir.
