One of those days...

Today is one of those days I want to dig a hole and hibernate...

My first ever handled release finally went into production after 2.5 agonizing months. Despite me and some folks babysitting it, I had a few dangling issues that bloated in production.

Sometimes no matter how I want to do things right, somehow, somewhere, something will go wrong. Dont you just hope you could have done better than that?

Just once, can I do things right in just one shot?

One of those few days when I start thinking why...

Time is a Good Friend

Last Christmas, company held a Christmas Party for the charity reading events.

I arrived late at the party, my first notion was to look for Elvin (I blogged about him long back, he's the first kid I taught last March and I never bumped into him again in suceeding reading events). I dont really expect him to remember me on just one encounter. I just thought of probably looking at him from a distance, curious to find out how he is doing after like 9 months. (oops dont tell me this is any motherly instict! I dont wanna be an auntie hehe, pwedeng achi na lng :p)

So I looked at the crowd of like 30kids+, I cant recognize him, no choice but to give up searching.
So there's a quick graduation ceremony, perfect, I guess there's only one Elvin around who'd walk up the stage. This is how he looks like now.


Oh my time really flies.. he's grown so so much, I wouldnt know it's the same kid. Binata na. And he's very far from the shy kid I remember, I can see some confidence and kulit energy from him, playing with his friends. Probably he doesnt need me or anyone like me anymore.. he's doing good. And I'm happy for him.

The power of time never fails to amaze me:

...it leaves footprints behind those we touched or have touched us in their small little ways

...it changes a person's outlook and aspirations, goals and priorities, hopefully in a good light

...it heals every imperfection, every wound, both literally and figuratively

...it makes you forget the bad, the ugly, if you want to

...it magically makes you remember the good, the beautiful when you look back

...it makes you realize how stupid you were with the mistakes you did and puts a smile on your face easily

...it makes you proud while recounting the accomplishments you've made

...it gives you some sour regrets for things you failed to do

...it makes you shudder how much of time passes without you feeling its passage

...it challenges you to make the coming days better than the elapsed days

...it gives you hope into the journey for the future


Yeah, just always give me some time, I just need some time perhaps. The right time at the right place, perfect timing.

Time will always be one of my best friends! Cheers to you :)

Happy 2011!

It's 2011!

Have a good year ahead, everyone.

Not much new year's resolution, just that I need to hit the gym at least once a week! Better to start early than be sorry later isnt it. :)

It's been 4 years since I last stepped into a gym. Yesterday I had 50minutes of treadmill (not a bad start for a lazy person like me).. I need to burn down all the yucky accumulated fats the last holiday vacation + 4 years of pigging out. Wish me luck!

Posting one of my pix from the modern set, wondering when I'll get a free photoshoot again hehehe.


It's gonna be CNY soon... happy year of the Rabbit! :)
