Before I Cut my Nails

I wanted to cut my toenails as soon as possible because I'm feeling some of the edges are burrowing themselves in my flesh.

Anyway... I just had a striking realization after looking at some baby bathing videos and listening to Johnson's Baby channel in youtube.

I don't want my child to grow up na hindi marunong mahiya. I want him/her to have just enough hiya or self-respect or self control that he/she just wouldn't barge in and ruin some other kid's photo because he/she just loves to have his/her picture taken. I don't want my child to be like that. Madadala nya kasi pag laki nya. And these kind of people, if not guided properly are those overly self confident to a point na atribida na or antipatiko. Mga tipong signal number 3, di pa nagsasalita. Gusto ko syang mag pose kung sya ang pipicturan, hindi yung wala nang magawa yung kukuha ng picture kasi hinawi nya na yung birthday celebrator para sya ang nasa gitna. O kaya eh solo pic dapat, pero andun yung mukha nya sa gilid, pinilit masama sa frame. Alam mo yun?

Of course I want my kid to have self-esteem. Much like his/her dad who can talk anyone into believing that a giraffe turns into a zebra on a full moon. But I really want my child to know his/her boundaries. Please Lord help me to raise this child properly. As early as now I do pray that we can raise our child to be the best he/she can be. I want him/her to be smart, but not annoying. Bibo, but not palapad-papel. Chatty, but not bratty. Independent, knows what he/she wants, but not a spoiled brat.

Oh please Lord, help us. And also please make all the people around us, I mean ALL, cooperate too.

Test posting from my phone

Just wondering if it actually works.. Lol!

Pagbabago

Ang dami-daming nagbabago ngayon. Mga lugar, kainan, mga logo ng bangko, mga logo ng restaurant. Ang mga pulis lumalala, ang mga pulitiko, lalong lumala. Ang mga tao pagod na, ang iba naman tumanda na at nag-kaanak.

Nabanggit ko nalang din ang salitang "nagka-anak", malapit na rin ako dyan. Kaya pagkalaki-laking pagbabago ang pinagdadaanan ko ngayon.

Pero parang pagbabago lang naman ng logo. Ganun pa rin ang katauhan, ang mga prinsipyo, ang kaisipan. Ganun pa rin ako - minsan makulit, minsan mataray. Dito parin ako nagtatrabaho kung saan ako nagtatrabaho bago pa dumating ang pagbabagong ito. Ganun parin ang pamumuhay, payak pero masaya. Ang mga pangarap ko para sa sarili ko dati, ganun parin. Ang pagbabago eh nangyari sa pisikal na anyo, para ka lang nagbago ng logo. Pero kaakibat nito eh ang pagbabago na rin ng pananaw mo sa iyong hinaharap - "pyuchur" ika nga.

Nagbago ang pananaw ko sa mundo, parang gusto ko lahat maayos at masaya dahil hangad ko na paglabas ng munti kong anghel eh hindi sya mabigla sa tunay na buhay sa labas ng aking sinapupunan. Ngayon eh kasama na sya sa mga plano - sa budget, sa pagbili ng mga gamit sa bahay, pagpaplano ng kakainin pati ng pwedeng inumin. At syempre, nagbago na rin ang pisikal kong anyo. Nagkalaman na ang aking mga pisngi at braso. Pati hita. Pati kamo balakang. At ngayon, hinahanap-hanap ko na yung mga damit ko dati na maluwag na sana. Mukha na akong nakalulon ng maliit na pakwan. Minsan nauuna na rin ang tyan ko 'pag naglalakad ako. Pakiramdam ko rin eh araw-araw na binibinat ang balat ko sa tyan. Pero ok lang. Dumating din ang panahaon na nagbago ang panglasa ko. Ayaw ko ng lechong manok at amoy ng bawang. Bumibili ako ng prutas, pero di ko kinakain. Kumakain ng gulay, pero di inuubos. Dapat uminom ng gatas, pero ayoko sa amoy. Andyan din yung panahon na ang gusto ko lang kainin eh puro tinapay, o kaya eh cupcake, at ng lumaon, cake na. Kaya takbo sa pinakamalapit na department store, may Goldilocks kasi dun. Akala pa nga namin eh nawala na, kasi nagbago rin ang itsura ng logo nila. Buti nalang mali kami - andun pa rin sila, ganun pa rin ang lasa. Masarap. At mabango.

Iilan lang ang mga ito sa ang pagbabagong pinagdadaanan ko at patuloy pang daraanan. Mga pagbabagong masarap. Kaayaya. Dahil alam mo na pagkatapos ng pagbabagong ito, lahat ay maayos pa rin. Gaya ng dati, pero mas masarap at mas nakakatuwa.

Hey Newbie, Be Warned.

To tell you honestly, you must be very careful. You're treading on thin ice here. I'm just quietly observing. So far, you're on your way to being the second person who didn't get past regularization in this department (probably even this whole company).

Seriously.

You applied for this job, you should at least show interest with what you're supposed to be doing. Auditing doesn't mean you just email people and wait for their replies. You have to get on your feet and go to your auditees, interview them, look at their facial reactions, dig for the documents if you have to. Don't just sit there and warm your office chair. You're not being paid to act as if you're the boss. Just waiting to get instructed and waiting for more. You're not supposed to ask me what you should out in your report because you were supposed to be the who was auditing, right? All the resources are available, you have soft copies, you can borrow the printed forms, you can interview, you can photocopy.. You just have to get your lazy as*s off that friggin' chair and start BEING the auditor you told us you can be during your dang interview!!!

Bilivery.com - there's an Article about you Containing gross misspellings and misinformation

UPDATE:
Still no sign of any reply or reaction from Cebu Daily News... And I found another error:



The article I found online is published at this link: http://globalnation.inquirer.net/cebudailynews/enterprise/view/20100819-287852/Shopping-plus-delivery-on-line-taps-Cebu-OFWs

So I started to read it, since these guys are my brothers-in-law and Sam soon to be my sister-in-law... And I was mortified to find out about the misspellings and a misinformation contained in the said article.


Number 1: Misspelled Name


ClaudioniƱo Abano - It's ClaudyniƱo Anoba



Next, Misinformation


Buboy / Joan / Badz Anoba and Cris are NOT brothers. They're not even related.



I hope Cebu Daily News (who published this in print) can contact the Anoba brothers and tell them about this, and issue an erratum for the published article online and probably in print, if this was the same one published in CDN.

Proofreading is a must. So is getting the CORRECT information.

Just saying.

Shame! - Insensitive Picture-Taking now on CNN

Nakakahiya.


Those incidents of people taking pictures of the bus and even posing beside the bus is now in the CNN iReport Blog. International media has already taken notice of this disrespectful act.

Shame.

Hi, Still Alive. How’re you?

 So I decided to visit my blog. Just because. And of course, since I didn’t delete it, it’s still here. Stagnant. Just observing. Doing noth...
