it started with for better or for worse…

March 4th, 2007

after a week of busy scheds due to the preparations of the opening of SM and other activities..i was planning to take a rest (that means a whole day of sleep) on sunday. hep! hep! i suddenly remember i have lots of activities that pile up on sunday–have to check stores with activities, (that includes, check on the promo girls and the participation), or i may have a choice of cleaning the room since my room really now defines the character of an artist (higko na, gamo, basura didto, basura diri) or attend the covenant orientation.

well, i prefer to attend the covenant orientation since it is one of my responsibility sa community (and part of the sunday obligations with GOD). i don’t know what happened to the other plans but im sure god has a purpose on waking me up as EARLY as 9am( i usually wake up 1100am during sundays, mind you!). there are five talks–the first speaker talks about the importance of the family in our commitment in joining the community.

hmmm…i know this week was very stressful. kakapoy gid. kagulutom. with all the pressures from work, when i get home, pressure naman in my responsibility as an elder sister to three, a daughter, a niece and a grand daughter. (yeah!)

i dunno, but i think i was struck with the what the speaker was blobbing in front. i know it was hard since im not really used without mum around. i mean, mum was in charge of all things sa balay (that’s why, sang ara pa xa–wala gd kami libog! xa tanan!…budget, sa studies nila, sa tanan). now, i am somehow, in charge man of some things since dud was assigned at cebu.  the speaker told us that "time" is important sa family, ang presence sang isa kag isa. last wednesday, card distribution ni tope and i was not informed. good thing mikmik was here pa so she was the one who went sa school and get the grades. kakapoy na daan halin sa work pagpuli mo, i received a 4 failing subjects- (yes, 4-four-quatro!!) -and to think he was in his last year sa high school. i dunno what to do. im tired and nakapoy naman ko magsaway. i then realized during the talk, basi ako man may kulang sa pagtutok sa iya, and i was very dissapointed man eh. though kruger helped me maski sa pagkadto lang sa school ni tope and talk to the teacher, worried man ko that kruger man mismo went home too late naman. ambot ah, may klase pa ni xa guroi alas-dyes sang gab-i, ambot kung diin na siya kakadto. also, si mikmik found the man who makes her life "kilig" for now, indi man pwede nga indi mag worry ka sa iya–especially when she goes home EARLY in the morning with her new found "love"! (tsk!)

the speaker also mentions that in marriage, my covenant man ang couple "for better or for worse, for richer or poorer, for sickness and in health, till death to us part". i was thinking of dud, kalayo bi sa iya. but i know he, too, sacrifice man of not being with us para magwork (i know, para man na gyapon sa amon.) but i know he can do better than me sa pag-tutok sa ila. i was thinking of the commitment sang couple when they get married–dud, really keep his promise to mum–and i am witness to these promises. for better or for worse they were together, for richer or for poorer–ey! we’re not from the ayala-zobel-sy clan…but we’re still here!, for sickness and in health–dud, was there with mum during those difficult times, till death to their part!!

family and work. these past few weeks keep my mind boggling. i dunno what to prioritize. and i dunno how to weigh them. they both are important to me. my work supports the family. my family supports me. i supports the family, hahaaayy…=) amu gani hambal nila, IKADLAW NA LANG ANG LIBOG!

these past few weeks….

March 3rd, 2007

natapos naman gid ang 1 week nga preparations, kulba, ugtas…tanan na lang!! well, my sched was very hectic these past few weeks. due to the opening of SM, we had lots of preparations to do-from checking the stores to implementtion of activities. kadamo hassle, kadamo loopholes. pero ok lang, these failures, kung masupot, is experience or what we call, learnings man.

but, for 4 years working in this field, di ko pa gd maperfect ubra ko. i mean, simple things nalipatan ko pa bi, though i have my own checklist. but i thank those people who have extended their hands to help especially these past three days. haayyy…wala pamahaw, wala panyaga, pag abot sa balay tulog na lang.

i was planning to sleep the whole day this sunday..oh, thats tomorrow!! galing, nadumduman ko, may fish tinola sampling pa kami gali sa gaisano city. and…i have to check pa the stores with redemption.

haaayyy…te? cnu naghambal hapos lang mag ubra? (ehheheh)
