We had a flight to catch at the Phnom Penh airport to Bangkok at around 5pm.The bus ride from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh was six hours. We left Phnom Penh around 7am via Mekong Express. We had lunch at Phnom Penh and for convenience, the nearest food stop we found was KFC. Our KFC chicken back in the Philippines was better, I might say;) The meals they served were localized such that they served a

I am still reeling with happiness when I got the email that I passed both E1 and E2 CIMA papers today! Never mind my scores... I passed!! And that is all I want! I thank the Lord Almighty for helping me get through the exams, the long nights of studying and reviewing. This victory is soooo sweet! Why?I only applied for two days study leave for the main exams.I was always working late in the

I am better off at declaring my new year plans earlier this time as I already have my own laptop! I got this April last year. And I hope Toshiwei (my Toshiba laptop) and I will be together longer. Today is the 1st of January, the 1st of 2012. And here my 2012 plans and wishes:CareerI hope this is my time. I hope I get the promotion! And most importantly I hope I get the best pay rise that I could

Today is the first day of the new year, 2012. But before I declare my plans for the new year, let me look back to 2011 and reminisce the memories... I can say that 2011 has been a very good year. It is this year that I actually felt for the first time in my life, or in my working life that I was financially in control. It was the first time that I felt that I was earning enough. =) And for the

When we got off the bus, a lot of tuktuk drivers approached us offering us either a ride to our hostel, or help us find a place to stay. We needed a place to stay for the night! As the downtown area was really flooded the best place to stay was outside it. The tuktuk drivers took us to the first option. I cannot remember the name of the place. But it seemed an abandoned hotel and we found it

Day 3 was going to be Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia. But the day before we were told by our hostess that there was flood at the Angkor Wat and some hundred tourists got trapped in the complex and were rescued by helicopter. So Jecel and I decided to cancel the Angkor Wat from the itinerary and just stay at Phnom Penh, the country's capital. We were both very disappointed. It was our dream to

Day 2 September 24 - Cu Chi Tunnels and Cao Dai TempleThis is a whole day guided tour we took. I was more excited about the Cu Chi tunnels used during the war. I took this from the Internet so basically all guided tours for Cu Chi and Cao Dai have the below itinerary. The only difference for ours was that we stopped by a local factory for Vietnamese paintings, furniture and home furnishings.

So it's just recently that I have realized that so much is expected of me, and that I am now part of management having just taken the role of a supervisor early this year. The sad thing is it was never made very clear to me my roles and responsibilities as a supervisor. So all the while I've been acting in a way that didn't fulfill my role. And all the while I thought I was alright. Not till I

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. ~St. AugustineA very famous quote and to which I so agree. That is why I always put travelling as one of the favorite things I like to do. Last month, my friend and I went on a 9-day trip covering 3 countries, our friendly neighbors, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. Three countries in such a short span of time. It was my first

Office politics – a taboo word for some people. It’s a pervasive thing at the workplace. In it’s simplest form, office politics is simply about the differences between people at work; differences in opinions, conflicts of interests are often manifested as office politics. It all goes down to human communications and relationships.There is no need to be afraid of office politics. Top performers

Out of boredom, crazy whim, and the idea of a company benefit, and yes, of a feeling a stand-still career, I decided to take the opportunity of doing CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountant). According to Wikipedia, "The Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) is a United Kingdom-based professional body offering training and qualification in management accountancy and

Oh I see this is very true. I have witnessed this in the workplace!The Pig And The Horse There was a farmer who collected horses, he only needed one more breed to complete his collection. One day, he found out that his neighbor had the particular horse breed he needed. So, he constantly bothered his neighbor until he sold it to him. A month later, the horse became ill and he called the

I cannot sleep unless I am not able to post this rant!!! I just got a reply from my onshore counterpart that I find is an insult to my intelligence! And what I hate is that he copied in my boss here and it appears on his email that I don't understand my work! I beg to disagree! But I don't want to put the blame purely to himself why he replied that way. I may have not been very clear in my email

This is the probably the most disappointing performance I ever experienced with my current job. To think that I've been with this team for 3 plus yrs, it was truly disappointing that I was not able to do deliver. I had a 3 hr call with my onshore boss. It was disappointing because I presented a working paper that was completely useless! It had a lot of errors and a lot of stuffs that had not

So I just got news today that my younger sister is going to have a baby! Well, she didn't tell me right away. Maybe she was afraid I would berate her for getting preggy before marriage. Well, I won't...She's getting married anyway in July... Besides the father is his soon to be hubby...She couldn't say it straight away but I know that that's what she is meaning to say...I confirmed it with my mom

It's amazing that people you meet and spend a few moments with make a huge impact on your life.My UK counterpart at work came to help out the team in a huge project. He spent two weeks with us.

Yeah, 30 is that dreaded number for some women. Well, I used to fear it coming to me. But yeah, what the heck, age is just a number. And I am blessed I got it this far. I just turned 30...last 24th of Mar!How does it feel? Feels like I just turned 21. =) My 30th bday wasn't anything fancy at all. I started the day with a Holy Mass to thank the Lord Almighty for giving me a chance to enjoy life.

Goodness, I actually forgot to write my Day 4 in HK. This was July 30. And it was really hot and sunny day...unfair really, becuase the last 3 days had been cloudy and rainy... Anyway, since I was now on my own, I decided to get a trip to the Avenue of the Stars and then visit the museums and maybe check out some shopping areas. At the avenue of the stars, I had all my pics taken by other people.

As a blog tradition, I have to declare my 2011 plans (not any more resolutions!)So here are they...I have to get my own laptop! I should get one soon...This March, I will take a trip to the computer shops...An international trip! Oh yes, I and a friend have already booked tickets to

This is a solitary trip. Mom and company have gone back to Cebu. I'll be roaming Macau on my own, or maybe with someone if Ate Ging's friend is available. She contacted her friend, Chris Stratford who works at the Venetian. Chris is an English guy in his fifties who designs shops/spaces etc at the Venetian Macau. I took off on the 10AM trip of the The First Ferry from the TST ferry terminal since

First stop was The Peak, one of the not to be missed tourist spots in HK. You haven't been to HK if you've never been to The Peak. It gives you a good view of the city and truly an amazing view. Since we were on Kowloon island and The Peak was on the Hong Kong island, we took the ferry to cross to the other side. Our landlady accompanied us on this trip. She had suggested we took the bus to go up

Finally, I am able to find time to write on our HK trip last July. So officially Day 1 w/ mom, sis and sis' bf was July 28. We first went to Ngong Ping 360 and to get there you need to take their cable car. It was the longest cable car trip I've ever experienced. We took the crystal cabin - a bit pricey than the ordinary but it was all worth it though. Since the weather at that time was not

Christmas 2010 is the first Christmas I spent away from home, Cebu and away from my family. I felt a bit sad really. I didn't realize that I would somehow feel loneliness in my heart even with close friends and relatives around. Nothing compares to spending Christmas with your family. =) I sooo miss them already...On the good side though, I got to experience how other people also spend their

Before the clock strikes 1AM, let me write my dreams, let me declare them on the worldwide web. I've been inspired by Bo Sanchez saying how he wrote his dreams and that he never really cared if they ever came true, but they actually did! I have been inspired by Yvette saying that writing them down and looking at them (if they are on pictures) or reading them so often could actually come true! So

I thought this "part" of our friendship is over. I thought "last year" was never ever going to happen again. I only realize now that there's this part of me that was still holding on to the past. I wasn't fully letting go. And it dawned on me now that I am just as weak as anyone in this planet earth. I am capable of breaking my own rules. I could be bad, wicked and dirty. I admit I can be

I arrived at the HK Intl Airport on Jul 27,2010 around 930pm. It was my first visit to Hong Kong. And my first out of the country trip in 2 yrs. The last was still in 2008 when I was sent to London for training. So I was super excited about this trip. One, I'm travelling on the plane to and from HK alone. Two, I will be joined by my mom and this is her first trip abroad. My sis and her bf are on

Here's a sneak preview of our HK-Macau trip on July 27-31.The whole 4 days wasn't all sunny. The HK weather forecast was darn right! It rained on the day we were in Disneyland. =( But the good thing was the fireworks display pushed through. We did a bit of shopping! We luv our finds! Super sale...=)Mom rode the Space Mountain, and survived it!My Macau solo trip was the best! I won 300hkd on the

This is it! My first out-of-the-country trip this year. I'm off to Hongkong with my mom and sister for a 4-day vacay. Mom and Sis (and her bf) are already there. Currently, they are enjoying Macau! I'm flying out at 710pm and this would be my first plane trip abroad alone! Excitement and nervousness are circulating my whole body now. I'm praying for a safe and truly amazing trip.

I had my first 10k run last July 24 at the DKS Fun Run, a run for the benefit of the Savings Sights program of ERIS.And I didn't expect to feel this much accomplished. I thought we'd finish it in 1:30 hr or more but we clocked in at 1:18hr. It's "we" because I had a buddy. Yes a buddy. And it really does help if you have a buddy in your runs especially if you're running a certain distance for the

My team in the office is also my running team, isn't that cool? =) When Lactacyd sponsored an all-women run race, me and my officemates/friends/runningmates decided to sign up for the relay. It will be a 21k distance with the 1st runner doing the 10k stretch, the 2nd for the 5k, the 3rd and 4th runners doing 3k each. Naturally, the 10k went to Yvette, being the fastest and most healthy amongst us

I am addicted to running and so is she (hahaha) Kasama ko kya cya sa mga runs na yun. Anyway, in May alone, I joined a total of 3 fun runs, almost one run a week.

True to one of my New Year's resolution, I started getting involved in running. I do hope I could really keep this up! I seriously need to lose weight. This started out with joining the Century Tuna's Superbods Run. It was just all for fun. My roommates and I have never really joined a fun run, and we just wanted to experience it (something we can add to our stories for our grand kids, and FB

Here's my predictions for my Manila-based Cebuano friends in the next 2/3 years...Let's do this by household.J and R are starting to develop special feelings for each other. At first they keep this a secret to the group. But then nothing as special like this will be a secret for a long time. The group are happy for them.

So I just turned 29 yesterday...Wow! I have lived this long on earth! I couldn't believe I'm so near to 30, that age when most people have accomplished a lot in their lives - traveled to a lot of places, owned a condo unit or a car, starting a family of their own, etc. And when I reflect on my own life and see how much I have accomplished, I could only sigh. Sigh for the reason that I still don't

Love love love is my theme this weekend. Saturday night we watched Dear John, an adaptation of Nicholas Sparks' novel of the same title starring yummy Channing Tatum and the pretty Amanda Seyfried. It was indeed a tear-jerker, emotion-filled, and so luv-full. What more can you expect from Nicholas Sparks? :) But then since I have already read the book, the movie didn't bring me much tears. Still,

What do I want to accomplish on this year of the Metal Tiger? Here's my simple list:Family travelsThis year, I want my travels to be with my family. Be it a trip with my siblings or a trip with my parents or the most bongga would be a trip with the whole family. I already have a planned trip in July, and that's in Hongkong with my mom and sis.

I'd like to reflect the year that went by, 2009. The past year had indeed been colorful, and difficult and intriguing and I may add interesting too. Laag-wise, I've been to more places this year than ever. Though I wasn't able to go outside Pinas, but yeah this year is my most travelled year. Here's a list of the places I've been to:1 - Baguio (2nd time)2 - Puerto Galera3 - Anawangin4 - Mt

I love books, so uber in love with them! So that if I am able to purchase a new one or if I receive it as a gift, my spirits shoot up to the high heavens! This Christmas, I am thankful to my manito/friend/neighbor Julius for giving me the book - The Time Traveller's Wife. I wasn't really expecting to get hold of this. It is quite pricey and the minimum budget of our kris kringle was 200 pesos.

One of the nicest, bestest gifts I got this Christmas is the 'Romance Revisited The Love Songs of Jose Mari Chan' CD of Christian Bautista. Last time, I posted that I saw Christian in person. So it is such a wonderful thing to receive his latest album as a gift. I have listened to it so many times and I am just in awe of Christian's voice and the romantic tone of it. There is truly no other

I can't fight this feeling any longer. And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow. What started out as friendship, Has grown stronger. I only wish I had the strength to let it show. I tell myself that I can't hold OUT forever. I said there is no reason for my fear. Cause I feel so secure when we're together. You give my life direction, You make everything so clear. And even as I WANDER, I'm keeping

So it got me thinking and asking myself if I have actually achieved my childhood dreams.So here a took stock of my chilhood dreams...1 - I wanted to learn ballet.

What is a valid reason for someone to love someone else? This was a question Bella asked Jacob at one point in the book New Moon of the Twilight Saga. And it got me thinking too, is there really a reason for you to love someone? Is there such a thing as a love that is wrong? Is loving someone ever wrong? Someone asked me that some time ago. And I couldn't help but agree. But then again what if

I attended a two-day course entitled Time Management. You know I've read lots of time management techniques over the years. But I didn't expect this course was going to be any of them. Well yes there were perennial principles presented like prioritization - what's urgent and important. But then the speakers or trainors had something more. The real meat of the course was life management. The part

When I decided to accept the offer for work in Manila, I knew that I wasn't going to be living on space of my own. I can't afford that, you know. I can't afford a 10k rented condo unit, or even a 6k rented space. Well, probably I could if I am not sending money back home. So I was prepared to live with other people. It should be a first in my life. This is the first time I have lived away from

I'd like reflect the one year I have been with my present job, a year away from my family, a year of living on my own, a year of living in a big city. I came to Manila a year ago, November 3, 2007 with excitement, anxiety and fully of energy - with a better paying job, independent living, big city life. Now I look back what the year has brought me, or what I have brought to the year as well.

“There is an appointed time for everything.”– Ecclesiastes 3:1 He wanted to buy a car. But he could only afford a second-hand. On his first attempt to search for a used vehicle, he received news from a friend. “Have you heard that the car of one of the residents living a few blocks from your home was stolen?”“Is the Lord telling me something?” he wondered. So he postponed his search. After

I'm back in Cebu for a one week vacation.:) I'm happy to be with my family again, making chikas and seeing them everyday. I miss them so much! :) While here though, I plan to watch lots of movies. Luckily, my brother has a lot of downloaded movies on his PC! And I don't think I could ever finish all of them! So far, I've watched two - Atonement and Vantage Point. Though with Atonement, I wasn't

These are the inclusive dates of the London trip. I spent some 5 weeks there. And I tototally enjoyed it. And I wanna go back. Because there were just so many things to see and so much to do but so little time. If given the chance to back to UK, I'll do the following things:1 - go to Scotland and visit my friend Eva and her family2 - visit my cousin's family in Sheffield3 - go to Oxford 4 - take

I'm writing this blog entry at the Dubai International Airport awaiting for our connecting flight to London. :) I'm happy for 3 reasons. One - there's wireless internet connection and I can log in to the restricted sites in the office i.e. yahoomail, blogger, gmail. Thus I can write about this UK trip. Two - it's my first trip outside of Southeast Asia, my first trip to UK, my first trip to

Today is March 24, 2008. It's my birthday!!!! And I'm now 27 y.o. I can't believe it I'm nearing 30. wahahaha... It's kinda weird to say that I'm 27. I feel old. It also feels odd especially when I'm still single, unattached and my friends and contemporaries are already starting their own families, getting married, having kids. Well anyway that's life and that's just how it is. Today my little

Phew! is all I can say after a very hectic weekend up to today Oct 31st. For 3 days, from Oct 27-29, I went on a trip to Bohol with my twin friends Elma and Erma. Erma just got from Dubai and she sent her whole family to a vacation in Bohol. The twins dragged me along (they wanted some girlfriends to join). Another friend of theirs, Sherrie also joined. It was my third time to visit the island

Yesterday, October 19th, was my last day of work at NSP, my second employer, my Japanese employer. I didn't exactly feel sad or happy. There was bit of both. I was sad because I had to leave the friends I've made at work. I spent almost 3 years working in NSP. And I've had times of fun in those years. I will certainly miss Mira, Chai, Jing, and Mam Baby -- my teammates in Finance. I'll miss the

It's the middle of October. On the 20th, it would be my last day at NSP. It seemed like I just handed my resignation letter. How fast time flies. (what a cliche! but it's actually very true) Tomorrow, it's my last day for my first semester in Masters. It's actually our final exams for Economics! I do hope I'm going to pass it. :) And on Wednesday, we'll be having dinner (the Finance team) and is

I found this in my office emails. I'm actually cleaning up my mails... :) This is good. It is a mystery why we fall in love. It is a mystery how it happens. It is a mystery when it comes. It is mystery why some loves grow and it is mystery why some loves fail. You can analyze this mystery and look for reasons and causes, but you will never do any more than take the life out of the experience.

Tuesdays with Morrie is one of my fave books. I love the quotes by Morrie. :) "The most important thing in life is to learn to how to give out love,and to let it come in." " Let it come in. We think we don't deserve love,we think if we let it in we'll become too soft. But a wise man named Levinesaid it right. He said " Love is the only rational act." "Love wins. Love always wins."

Habit 1: Be Proactive"I know of no more encouraging factthan the unquestionable ability of manto elevate his life by conscious endeavor."-Henry David ThoreauProactivity definedProactivity is more than merely taking initiative. It means that as human beings, we are responsible for our own lives. Our behavior is a function of our decisions, not our conditions. We can subordinate feelings to values.

Tonight, I was again confronted with my family's financial problems. My mom asked me whether I was going to go and find work in Dubai next year. And I was kinda surprised why she asked. Although I know there's something wrong. And I had a feeling it was financial which was almost always the case. You see, my father owes a huge amount of money from their employee coop. The money was used to

I'm gonna write about this feeling i had for the last 5 days. You see, I met a really nice guy. He seemed to be a lot of what i want in a guy. (that is, if everything he told me were true!). I was happy and excited to have met him and to be able to get to know him more in the ensuing days. Yet, he never showed up after 2 days. I gave him a number and an email add. But he never bothered to

According to the book, Stephen Covey presents a holistic, integrated, principle-centered approach for solving personal and professional problems. Indeed, it is very true.

Day 3. We were up a bit late. We're all just very tired. But we just couldn't afford to lose this one last day sleeping. The itinerary was to shop around for pasalubong in Chinatown then have lunch, afterwhich go to Romy and Emman's place then to Sentosa, then Vivo City. We packed up our bags. It was so sad we had to go. It feels like such a very short time. And we haven't been to so many
