I slept ridiculously late this morning last night because I was up working, working, working, and woke up at 11 am. I just came from from the mall because I accompanied my cousin and two aunts. I want to go to sleep but I know I shouldn't. November 30 is almost here and I still have TONS (as in TONS) to finish. When Kuya Andrew comes back from badminton, we'll probably eat dinner then go someplace for WiFi to work again. Then, when I get home, I'll probably continue working. A friend is trying to persuade me to go out drinking later. I want to but I know I shouldn't.

Life = Work
November is almost ending. With that comes deadlines, and the pressure and stress of the Christmas season. Right now, my life is composed of work, work, and more work.

Plus, I have to regularly update our blog and always be on the look out for news regarding the industry. For the other company I'm consulting for, there's suddenly people interested in getting our services, but I'm not sure yet if my "boss" read my emails. Asan na kaya yun? AND as a professional blogger, I am seriously facing a mountain of things to do. First, of course is maintaining and updating my 11 blogs. Yup, yup... ELEVEN BLOGS! Add to that the twenty plus other blogs I am now tasked of writing for. Ang…
Lessons I Learned Today
Here are some things I realized throughout this day... 1.) Be patient. 2.) Don't not be quick to say things when you are angry. You might regret it. 3.) Trust. 4.) When feeling intense emotions, take a deep breath, work, immerse yourself in productive things rather than wallow in anger or pain. 5.) Let go of things that only add to your stress especially if these things do not contribute to your personal growth. 6.) Smile. Laugh. There's always something to be happy about. 7.) Be thankful. There is always something to be thankful for.
Feeling Celebrity at the Mindanao Bloggers Summit
See this... photo by Charles A lot of people (boys to be exact) asked for my autograph after the Mindanao Bloggers Summit. Is it because of my alluring smile? LOL! Just kidding...
