The Priority List

Yesterday was a happy shift. Aside from Aux8 galore, we had so many interesting topics that we discussed together. There were topics about love, infidelity, long distance relationship, family issues, emotional disorder, and everything under the sun. We even talked about those quotes we remembered receiving via text messages.
There was this psychological test or something that Trish had brought up to the group. I am sure that was from a text message. She had given five events happening at the same time which are the following.

A baby is crying.

Someone is knocking on the door.

A telephone is ringing.

A bed-sheet is left outside and it is about to rain.

OK, I can’t translate the last event in English. Nasusunog na sinaing. Forgive me, laughs!

We needed to arrange them according to our priority. That time Elve Jane was servicing a call. And because I knew it already, I didn’t give my answers anymore. Jasmin was the first one who gave it a try. The following are her choices according to her priority along with her explanation.

A baby is crying. It is because it is a baby. Whoever is on the door knocking, whoever is calling, they both could wait. The bed-sheet, she could still dry it another way. The burnt rice she could replace with something else.

Someone is knocking on the door. She said she was worried that the person might get sick if she let him or her stay outside more than a couple of minutes…because it is raining.

A telephone is ringing. Then the food before the bed-sheet.

Trish explained the meaning behind Jasmin’s choices by revealing the things these five events are representing.

A baby is crying. It represents your family. In Jasmin’s case, it is her family her priority.

Someone is knocking on the door. It represents your friends. With Jasmin’s answers, next to her family, it is her friends her second priority. Obviously.

A telephone is ringing. It represents your career. The food is your investment and other financial achievements. The bed-sheet represents sex.

Jasmin was convinced that it sounded very much like her true priority list. After that, it was Elve Jane’s turn. Her choices started with the bed-sheet. She was so seriously explaining each of her answer. I was trying to keep a square face, not wanting to distract her. When she found out the things these events are representing, we roared into series of big laughter that everyone on the floor couldn’t help but got distracted, laughs! Elve Jane was trying to change sex into relationship. However, Trish never let her go that easy. It was really funny. There were so much more that happened on the floor that I couldn’t remember anymore.

Just Watched The Angels And Demons

My priorities are currently changing. However, my family is always on the top of my list. I think that is being the eldest in the family. As usual, there are so many things filling my head. The past, the present, and the future. So many things I want to achieve this year. Don’t want to disclose them here…yet. I am getting so excited of what would happen by the last quarter of this year. I don’t know. I just feel it.

I still have my friends and that is a beautiful thing, my eightmiles. I am enjoying the company of my new friends, even if they are from different sides of the circle. I was with Elve Jane, the Genius Blogger Jehzeel, Khai, Rye, Trish, May, Paris, JR, Cecil, and Cherie. We watched the Angels and Demons in Glorietta. The movie was good. I think it was better than the first movie, the Da Vinci Code.

The most exciting part for me in the movie was when Robert Langdon, the lead character played by Tom Hanks, was saving the fourth Cardinal from drowning in the fountain. We thought the cardinal would die and he did not. In fact, he was voted as the next Pope of The Vatican City in the movie. Sorry for spoiling the story for those who haven’t seen the movie yet.

After the movie we ate in Teriyaki Boy where I had…err, can’t remember the name of that delicious Japanese food. Funny thing there was when Khai tried the…err, I am not really into Japanese foods, can’t remember the names! It was one of those rice rolls? Those which were stuffed with…I think some meat and vegetables? Err, forgive me, I think I’m so clueless of what we had. Okay, this is the funny part which I was trying to tell here. Jehzeel was sitting between Khai and Elve Jane. Khai decided to try one of those rice rolls (?) of Elve Jane using her chopsticks. In the process of getting the rice roll, it fell right into the iced tea drink of Jehzeel. It was really funny. I was quiet during the dinner. I think there was nothing really I could share. I was just enjoying watching and listening to them. And the foods, for the first time I enjoyed my Japanese food.

On my way home I got stuck in the traffic on Skyway! I arrived home like around eleven, I think. I was so tired and happy that I easily fell into a dreamless sleep. Woke up after thirty minutes and took a bath. Listened to some music and started dreaming until my spirit surrendered into a relaxing dreamland.

One more thing, though. I am so lucky that I could tell Gracia everything. It is like a pre-marriage thing that is going on in between us. Too many confessions are going on. Making each other know each other more. And to be honest, I am feeling so blessed. And to LORD God be the glory.

Not Giving Up! No Way!

Yesterday right after the shift, I don't know where the idea came from, we just thought of watching Wolverine in Glorietta. Quickly I checked my pocket to make sure I had enough funds to go with them, laughs!

I was with Elve Jane, Rye, Cristy, and Trish. It was fun to be with them. I was missing Jasmin that day because, without telling me, she was on Vacation Leave that day. There were so many funny things we did that I couldn't remember them anymore, laughs! Elve Jane told me that I should take Gracia there for a movie date or something like that. OK, I have plans and I am still in some phases in life that I need to go through. One thing is sure, there is no day that I don't miss Gracia. She is always on my mind. There is so much things that I wish I could do with her. I know she misses me, too.

Later that day, after we had watched Wolverine, Jehzeel arrived to finally picked up Elve Jane. There, the Blog Genius was sitting next to me. How I wish I could just absorb his blogging intelligence just being few inches away from him, laughs! Anyway, Elve Jane thought of an idea of creating a new blog in which we could contribute and later on, start earning money. It sounded so cool and I hope it would happen.

We also talked about me getting a domain name which, of course, through the courtesy of the Blog Genius, Jehzeel. There is so much things I know I need to learn to be somehow like him, the Blog Genius. Anyway I won't give up. Since blogging is the only way I have right now to be closer to my super dream-becoming a professional writer who could be read by people from different places. The original dream was not really like this. I believe the best feeling a writer could get in his craft is being read. However, it is the closest to it. So I'll take it.

Agatha's System Building In Los Baños

Lately I was feeling so lazy and so out-of-tune. I don’t know why but it seems like something was not right. There is so much to tell, so many things are happening. I think it is the weather, it is always raining. I was sick last week. One of the things I’d like to tell was the System Building we had in Los Baños, so close to home. However I think the pictures would tell better what kind of fun we had during the System Building. To tell you the truth, around 10 P.M., I was already dead asleep because I had to attend the church service the next day. But I did make sure that I was part of it. Anyway, The Spurs won in Cheering Contest! Laughs! It was fun. So much fun.

Was Stranded. Was Thinking.

I was asking myself if I got busy these past days and weeks because I don't have new post here and on Reporting Fernand Yim. I don't know. Maybe I am still adjusting to the new schedule, from night shift to morning shift. I was absent last Friday, last Monday I was late for like one and a half hours! It was because of a flat tire. I was stranded along the highway for like an hour! It was so frustrating. I thought of so many things during that hour. They are the following.

1. I thought the job was not for me and I should resign. I still long for something real. I still want to become a professional earning writer. I still have so many dreams I want to start working on. A big sigh on that one.

2. I thought of relocating. Thinking that the rainy season in the Philippines is just around the corner. I believe I need to consider relocating somewhere near the Burgundy Corporate Tower. Just a thought of it, I am starting to feel pain in my head.

3. I thought of Mr. Yim. I want to meet him for a business proposal. I am not sure if he would agree or not. But I think I need to prepare a good business proposal so that it would be more convincing.

4. I thought of venturing into business. I think it is about time for me to apply those four years I learned in college into my life, I took up Entrepreneurial Management.

5. I thought of sleeping. Yes, I want to sleep more.
