On the verge of tears

4 days to go before Christmas..
i'm getting emotional again..
Jesus is the reason for the celebration - that I have to remember.
I know. But it will be better to celebrate this momentous event with your family right?
I'm also emotionally wretched with all the pressure I am receiving in the workplace - though my boss tells me not to worry - how can I not? Tell me. Knowing him. You'll always be using this idiom: Catch 22 - that's very very applicable - damn if you do, damn if you don't.

Well? My blog entries recently is almost always about my problems. Sorry, sad to say, this is my only point of release as of the moment.

Please continue to pray for my family and for me, for my sanity and peace of mind.

Thanks!

Have a blessed Christmas everyone! You are very lucky if you are going to celebrate Christ's birthday with your loved ones. Treasure the moment. Cherish the occasion. Don't forget to thank God for all the things that is coming your way.

Pimple "Acts"

I'm having problem with my face again,
since I started working in ..... and got pressurized and all - my zits came popping out like they're mad or something - yeah, that's what we call a result of stress (you know what, stress once in a while is a good thing, but being stressed all the time - it's not healthy!)
...even if they're telling me that I should not worry about this and that, what can I do? aside from my own nature of being a worrier, you can't help it when even if it is your off you will still receive a lot of calls...

Even my officemates are bothered with my zits, hehe...me too, don't worry...

Yesterday after the mass, a woman from behind approached me to tell me that there's a clinic in Satwa where I can consult my skin problem. Ok, I told Zielo that even in the Philippines I was used to those 'inoffensive' comments from other people - or strangers...

Now, we went outside to buy something shiny for Zielo's 'kriskringle' and while we were in Emarat, a guy I saw earlier who already went out, came back just to tell me that I should consult him.

Haha. Bow. That's it. End of story.

Thanks

Guys,

If you are reading this, thanks for all the support.

Zielo, Eug, Krisca, Kaye, Dhes, Joey, Cams, tropang elem, tropang hayskul, pati dun sa mga kaibigan nina ate, at mga kapamilya - thanks for the prayers, financial and emotional support.

Salamat po talaga!

Godbless us all!

Work-Family

Nahahati na naman ang damdamin ko.
Dami complications na mangyayari kung magdedesisyon ako ng padalus-dalos..
Work:
Given na na nahihirapan ako sa nature ng trabaho ko. Hirap magresign - dami dapat i-consider. All I'm asking is for you guys to keep on praying for me - to be strong and be patient and be whatever God wants me to be. If I'll be able to make it even for just one year - I'll hang on.
Family:
Lola is still in the hospital - the chances of recovery - I don't have the faintest idea. I know that my family is just getting by - thanks to all those who are praying for us, it's really hard in the emotional and financial aspect but God knows we can make it - we just have to trust Him.

Everything happens for a reason - that I have to keep in mind and I have to keep my faith burning.

Christmas

12 days to go before Christmas...

something had hit me while I was doing something in the morning..

it would really be sad not celebrating Christmas with the family - a sad truth...but then, it would also be bad if we will not see the real meaning why we are celebrating Christmas anyway, right?

This is not about me, not about you or not about them - it is being celebrated because Jesus Christ is born! Our Savior!

I know it will be hard because this will be my first Christmas away from home - hopefully with this realization that had hit me, I'll be able to keep a cheerful and meaningful perspective on Christmas day...

Halo halo

I'm stressed out lately, probably because my new HDC partner is not yet well-equipped and train in our line of business...honestly, i fully understand..it's not like i'm holding a grudge or something..i know what he feels, it was like he was thrown into the open sea though the people around him knows that he doesn't know how to swim..

My life is somewhat miserable..the work, the problems we have at home (in the Philippines), everything. I don't know if i'll be able to cope up soon enough..hopefully..

It's kinda good that we have something which I can consider as some sort of diversion - Twilight - yeah, the book is good, it must not be compared to Harry Potter because they are not dealing with the same story.. i'm now reading book 3, atleast there's Edward and Bella that I have to think about aside from the machines.

I am also thanking God for all the support and help, I don't know ifI'll be able to pursue what I am doing now but I know that he has reasons why I am facing this kind of situation right now...

I am literally sick - as in my head is aching due to the cold weather, it's getting colder by the day and it's also raining here - too bad Dubai doesn't even have a drainage! or so they say..

I dunno, am I making sense here. I just wanted to write right now.

Please pray for my lola, I don't know if she will recover, but whatever God wants for her, for us, so be it, His will be done..hopefully my family will be able to move forward no matter what...I just lost my grandfather, I don't know what to feel anymore, I wanna go back home, I want to be with them in times like this..

Pray for us, please, please, please.

Thanks.
