Tuesday, 27 November 2007 There are NONE!!!Sigh. I haven't been able to do Morning Pages. Because I'm just so fond of sleeping :( I'm supposed to wake up an extra 30 minutes earlier than usual. Basically morning pages are 3 pages worth of long-hand writing of your first streams of consciousness. It's one of the most important tasks of the whole Artist's Way journey. Sigh. I still have trouble with commitment, obviously. And compromise. I hope tomorrow I'll fare better. I know it's just a matter of actually DOING IT. A matter of choice. And I really don't want to be stuck where I am now so I should just go ahead and move forward already. Anyway...work talk! I've adjusted. As in I can honestly say that I have adjusted. I'm more open and I joke around with my officemates now. It's THAT stage already. Hehe I need more casual clothes! lol. Sometimes it still amazes me, the fact that I can wear clothes I'm comfortable in...clothes that express what I'm all about. Fashion freedom is love <3 As for the project...I know I'll do a good job of marketing it. Sometimes though...I still think about whether or not I made the right choice by accepting this job. I know, as in I know with all my heart (as cheesy as that sounds), that all I really want to do in life is to make it as a writer. To hone my craft. I know I'm not yet the writer I see myself becoming. I know there's still room for improvement. But I can honestly say that all I really want to do is write for a living. I want to eventually have my works published and I know that this is just a day job. A stepping stone. I realized I don't really see myself as a marketer or even a PR practitioner in the long run. I know I CAN be good at it but I don't really want to make a career out of it. I just want to write. And travel. And paint. And I want to eventually make a living out of the things I'm really passionate about so despite all the belief systems I've had about how hard it is to make it as a writer/painter, I still see it as my end result. My end goal. As in 3 to 5 years from now, I'll be working as a fulltime writer. I'll have written a novel, submitted a really witty short story entry to the Palanca, and have published a collection of my short stories and earn loads of moolah because I'll be really really good at it. I'll be having solo and group art exhibits regularly too. Have lunch and dinner dates with fellow artists and writers...and spend half of my year in transit. I'd have already toured my beloved Pinas and have visited more than half of Europe, Africa, Australia and the Americas. Sometimes I'd go on my own, sometimes I'd go with a friend, a lover or a family member. O diva?? I already see it happening. Really, it's only a matter of time. :)

Monday, 26 November 2007 I rode a big bike this weekend! Haha an F4i Honda CBR 600cc!I just HAD to write that down. I've never ridden a motorbike before. A group of us went over to Pao's after the OC meeting and a little after midnight, I had the sudden impulse to ride his bike. And so we went around his village! It was awesome!!! As in I felt as if velocity took over my body! Haha I loved it every time he upped the speed! I was grabbing on for dear life but I was really enjoying myself! And it was a blue moon (I've never seen the moon look so big)!!! Perfect time to do something crazy! Wheeee I wanna do it again! My parents would kill me if they ever find out about this. Haha! Anyway, it was a really busy weekend for me. GA was on Sunday so Saturday Wes, Pinky, Sharry and I had to go to the place and arrange the setup. We had to wait until the lolos and lolas finished at the activity hall before we can spruce it up for the event the following day. We finished around 8pm and we went to have dinner at Trinoma after. Also ended up watching Enchanted. Haha it's funny! And McDreamy is as steamy as ever. Sigh. Sunday was tiring but all worth it. And I got to talk to someone about something and at first I thought I'd be doing something I didn't want to do but, well, okay na. Hehe cryptic much? :P So now I'm back at the office pretending to be busy...hehehe I can't wait until the long weekend! I have a date on Thursday and then Dodgeball on Friday! hehehe Last but not the least, it's my best friend Au's birthday!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRUNA CARTOLINA!!!!!

So I'm just waiting for the clock to strike SIX so I can get out of here and say hello to the weekend. And in the spirit of the good 'ol holiday cheer, I'm listing my favorite Christmas movies off the top of my head: 1. Home Alone - I never get tired of watching this movie. Brings back lots of crazy childhood memories. I think Macaulay Culkin was my first real crush ever. Him and Aladdin. And Prince Eric from The Little Mermaid.  2. Elf - Because Will Ferrell's crazy antics never fail to crack me up! :)  3. A Christmas Carol - I miss you, Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future! Feel free to visit me anytime! (Kidding)  4. The Family Stone - This movie I can watch over and over again and I still find I have tears left to cry some more. Reminds me of my family. Haha.  5. Love Actually - Perfect feel-good Christmas movie. I love Brit humor. And Colin Firth.  Thirty minutes to go! Hello weekend! :P

Wednesday, 21 November 2007 I totally rocked commuting last night! LOLYes, Miss high-maintenance (during evenings anyway because I'm totally cool with taking the bus during the day) finally managed to commute home with all her nerves intact. And in high spirits, no less! I rode a jeep I thought was on its way to the Buendia MRT Station--um, it wasn't. And the people riding the jeep with me knew it. Smirk all you want, why don't you? Heh. Anyway, I had to ask the jeepney driver to pull over right before entering Bel-Air where I walked the remaining few kilometers to the station. Then I joined the crowd at EDSA and looked for the bus that would take me all the way to MIA road. I got a good seat right up front by the window where I read the first few chapters of Artist's Way. I started with my morning pages today. It gave me a headache. I had to wake up an extra half-hour earlier than usual. Which would've been ok had I not spent the night talking to my friend on the phone. Hehe. Anyway, commuting. I got off the intersection of MIA and Quirino and rode a tricycle to my village. I rode outside behind the driver. Waaaah thank god I wasn't wearing a skirt because I nearly toppled over when the driver stepped on the breaks out of the blue! I don't mind, really. Only my life at stake here. Nyehe. Then I walked home after the driver dropped me off by the chapel. The walk helped clear my head a bit. By the time I arrived home (and was greeted enthusiastically by our three makukulit dalmatians), I was in a good mood! This entry's really pointless. All I want to say is that commuting at night isn't as bad as I thought it would be. And this was also the first time in weeks I was home before 8pm. Because of everything I've been up to lately, going home at midnight is early. So being home by 8pm was really pleasant. Spent the better part of the night pampering my feet. Hehe. Ulit na naman mamayang gabi. I'm broke. I don't really have much of a choice. But at least I'm not being a brat about it! Haha!

Tuesday, 20 November 2007 An old college crush works in the same building as I do!!!I had just stepped into the all but freezing 6th floor food court when I suddenly saw a familiar (gorgeous to the high heavens) face sitting at the center of one of the tables--let's just call him Michael Douglas or Mike--hmmm Mikey because he's sort of boyish looking. Why? Well I've always resonated with Catherine Zeta-Jones so it's only fitting I name crush after her hubby. Law of Attraction at work here yeah. (I just watched The Secret again yesterday hehe) Anyway, so Mikey was there and I got totally excited. Haha he looks better than ever! Seeing him reminded me of the days when I would stalk...er, happen to be at the same place he was. Hahaha. I wonder what floor his office is or if his office is really here--maybe he was just meeting friends who work here for lunch? What's his schedule?? Is he married already to a trophy wife and is already the father of three perfectly adorable children??? Haha! Don't you just love surprises like this one?? Makes the average day a wee bit more interesting! :P Labels: crush

Yaaaaarrrrrrgggggghhhh. Deep breaths. YOGA I need YOGA...Find your center... Sigh. So yes, I guess what I'm saying here is that this is one challenge I am choosing to overcome. I should really just quit with the whining and commit to something bigger than myself. And you know how they always say that succumbing to fear will only cripple you? It's true. Because my self-doubts are resurfacing, it has been keeping me from being productive and creative. So I am choosing to let these stupid doubts go. Go away, doubts! Go awaaaaaay! Heh. Great timing - I'm finally going to do Artist's Way.  It's a workbook by Julia Cameron and it's supposed to help with creativity blocks, which I feel I am experiencing at the moment. So really great timing. I thought E would forget to bring it again yesterday but he didn't so I'm really excited to get started. I'm reading through the first few chapters now.I really DO want to experience myself at my utmost creative again. I'm planning on organizing a group exhibit for up and coming artists (including moi) for the second quarter of 2008. As in I've been thinking about this for a while now. I don't have a theme yet but I know I don't want to limit it to just one art medium. My job, so far, gives me a lot of free time to work on outside rackets so why not take advantage of it right? As in I see myself pushing through with the exhibit. So it's really good that I'm doing this creativity workshop now. Yiieeeeeee I'm excited!!! I'll even make an action plan for it by tonight!!!! hehehehehe That is, after I finish doing my pending project tasks. Ehehe. Labels: art, resistance, work

Second day at work and I thought I was already running late. When I got to my office, the lights weren't even turned on yet! lol I'm not used to working with people on flexi-time. Haha. Things at work, despite my initial shock though, are beginning to get interesting. I love how everyday is Casual Friday. I can wear anything I want! Yahoo! I love fashion freedom. Haha. I'm excited about tomorrow. It'll be the first time I'm staffing a FLEX seminar and I'm just really looking forward to it. Except for the 6:30am call time. Obviously I have nothing much to do yet but surf the internet. I need to research on how internet marketing works. I didn't realize how far behind I was about blogging etc until my boss asked me to check out what the hottest sites in the internet were! It's so overwhelming how extensive the virtual world has become. Amazing. There are a lot of untapped opportunities. I already sound like a tech geek in the making. Must not forget my kikay past...haha. Labels: work

It wasn't really because of the offer, although I have to admit that they gave me a really good one. But what cinched my decision was that I went with what I was "afraid" of the most. And I realized after days and days of thinking, I was resisting working for my new company because I felt terrified that I would not be able to do a great job because this is something really new to me--a stretch. Working with GMCI would be working within my comfort zone. It'll be the same as what I used to do for my old PR company. PR Logistics. But with more interesting clients, of course. My new company's not a PR agency. They're a mobile entertainment and music recording company. With my new job, I'll be doing a lot of conceptualizing and it's going to involve a lot of creativity on my part. I'll be handling the launch of their new product and it is going to be huge. As in I don't know what made me just throw caution to the wind and just take the risk. Because this is by far, the riskier choice. It's a new product and it's something I am not too familiar with so I'm sure I'll learn a lot. Waaaaaaaahhhh I'm still not sure if I made the right decision!!! But right now I know that this is what I need--a challenge. A stretch. I've gone on and on about moving out of my comfort zone so I think I ought to just go ahead and DO IT already. Time to face my fear of being great! Muahahaha. Ack. Other updates. Z, W and I went bowling yesterday. It was a totally spur of the moment thing. I made bowling history--I was aiming for a strike in my own lane but, er, I slipped and my ball bounced onto the lane where Z was playing his last shot. So I totally sabotaged his game and when I looked up from my fall with my face all red with humiliation (the people working there were laughing at me), his eyes were shooting daggers at me. Waaaah it was a good thing Skybowl was deserted because I had a lot of bloopers! Like twice the ball fell off my hands right before I was about to roll it. It didn't really help that the two guys were laughing at me. And damn it I hate gutter balls but they seem to love me!!! >:X Bowling does not agree with me. But maybe Dodgeball will. We're playing in a couple of weeks. Waha. What else? Ah yes, I'm so proud of my accomplishments the past two days. I volunteered to solicit money for this project I have for OCCI and I totally exceeded the amount I agreed to deliver by a couple of thousands. Almost double the amount! And I did it all in one night. AND NO, I did not go to Quezon Ave for this! Aren't I just fabulous? Muahaha.

The Rundown: Went to UST Hospital with my grandparents. Daddy (my grandfather) had a regular checkup with his Eye-Ear-Nose-Throat doctor. Spent a few minutes listening to him and Mommy bickering about whether or not the EYE should be included. Daddy's against it. What are ophthalmologists for? Gawd. Old married couples. I wonder if I ever get to be part of one. Haha okay that's thinking waaaay into the future. NEXT! Went to Galleria for lunch. This is the fourth time in a span of two weeks that I have eaten in Pancake House. Pancakes are literally coming out of my ears. Not to mention club sandwiches and tacos. Dropped by Ateneo to pick up my cousin's report card and registration form. I suddenly regret that decision because I am now supposed to register on his behalf. Argh! ARGH! You owe me Francis--you brat!!! Pancake House tayo when you get back. Haha. Backup company also called this afternoon. I'm kinda irritated because I told them I would give them my decision on Wednesday and they're kinda not respecting that wish. Kinda bites that GM hasn't called yet. I hope they do tomorrow morning. Much as I find Backup's offer tempting, I have to ask myself - do I really see myself working there in the long run? What else? Oh, my group coffee date went well. A is really nice. Musician who loves to read. Imagine that. Really smart and opinionated. And we have a lot of common ground. Which was surprising! He kinda reminds me of that guy in that Mandy Moore flick. The one with Diane Keaton. Because I said so. Hehe This was the first okay blind date so far. The last one was tres horrible. I suppose I should take it as a good omen. I'm not really expecting a second date but I'm not closing off the possibility. I'm just glad I agreed to it :)

Which is why I ended up buying this the other day at Fully Booked:  It's a workbook on helping unleash one's creative spirit. Something I feel I really need at this point in my life. I've been hiding and I think it's about time I start expressing myself. What better way than to do it through art? :) I haven't painted anything in years. I've sketched every now and then but it's just not the same. And I can't wait to try out new mediums! I'm really excited about this. :D And speaking of coming out of hiding, I'm off to go on a date later! It's a group thing with a guy Pinky is setting me up with. Hmmm.

Thursday, 1 November 2007 I had a really weird dream last night. And it had a lot to do with ghosts. It started out with me hanging out with people I knew and then somebody pulled me away from the group and we started talking. He seemed normal enough until I noticed that people were looking at me as if I were crazy. I thought there was probably something weird stuck on my face so I looked at the reflection while I was sharing a funny story with the guy.He did not have a reflection. And that was when chaos ensued. As in I scrambled to get away from him but he begged for me to come back. It was really scary but at the same time I just felt so much for him because I knew what he was going to ask of me--keep him company, help him find peace. As in I could feel my heart rate escalate as I slowly made my way back towards him. I was about to take his hand when I felt someone shake me out of slumber. And then I woke up. And then here's the freaky part. It was already around 4am at that time and as I was struggling to open my eyes and wake up, I saw a girl wearing a pink striped shirt standing by my bedroom window and I knew she was the one who woke me up. I thought at first that it was Chloe. But then I realized Chloe wasn't wearing pink, she was wearing a dark blue shirt and I suddenly heard her breathing beside me. Fast asleep. When I looked back up at the girl in the pink shirt, she slowly vanished. As in I didn't get to see her face because she "dissolved" into thin air. F.U.C.K. I swear I wasn't dreaming at that time. I tried dismissing the notion of seeing her but I KNEW she was there. I SAW HER. It wasn't a hallucination!!! As in she was standing on the very same spot--right by my easel--wherein I saw the silhouette of my late great grandmother in that horrible nightmare I had a year ago. I can still recall every detail of that nightmare. It felt like an out-of-body experience. I saw myself lying on my bed and when I tried moving my feet, I couldn't. I was aware that I was dreaming. And then I heard a really spooky voice saying "Anjan na Lola mo." And then I felt the bed shake violently as if there were an earthquake. And then a force pushing me down on the bed hard. I knew then that I needed to make a conscious effort to wake up or else god only knows what could've happened. When I did, I was gasping for air. And I had a major headache. I've always been skeptical about these matters but damn it, why are "they" making it so hard for me?? That dream--well that first few seconds of returning consciousness--really freaked me out.

Currently working on a new list. I'll be posting it soon! Here are the mechanics: The Mission: Complete 101 preset tasks in a period of 1001 days. The Criteria: Tasks must be specific (ie. no ambiguity in the wording) with a result that is either measurable or clearly defined. Tasks must also be realistic and stretching (ie. represent some amount of work on my part). This project was started by photographer Michael Green. To learn more about the nature of the project, click HERE. === I finally got to meet up with Chloe, one of my closest friends in college. She's sleeping over my house this weekend so we're really catching up on what we've both been up to the past year. I haven't seen her since last November? I forgot already. We've lost touch but we recently texted again and voila, instant sleepover. That's two sleepovers in a span of two weeks. I am quite the social person these days. You can drag me all the way to Baguio at the last minute and I'd be all for it! Spontaneity's the best :) But speaking of Baguio, my plans got canceled. Oh well, next time! :) This weekend I wish I had a car. I'd drive all the way to wherever a full tank of gas will take me. Except Kawit, Cavite. Which is where we'll be going in a couple of hours. Hay it's a family tradition. Undas in Kawit. Fabulous. At least Julien's going. We'll take his car so we can make escape after showing up. Heh. Been meaning to finish revamping my second short story. I'll do it over the weekend. It's my favorite so far. Hehehe can't wait to upload it soon!

Hmmm I think I pretty much did nothing. Haha oh, I went back home to Paranaque after the long, lazy and fattening weekend in Greenhills--damn it I need to keep up my weight goal! So I dropped by UST to pick up my tita who works at the Cancer Institute (she's an oncologist) and I spent nearly two hours singing my lungs out within the comfort of my car (technically it's not mine but for that two hours it was)--thank god the windows were tinted. Or else people would've noticed the lunatic inside pretending she was the star of a broadway musical--and the only female member of BSB (yes I was quite the fan!!!). So this is what sheer boredom does to people. Makes them go cuckoo. Wednesday. Rushed from one interview to the other. I already got an offer from my backup. They even raised it when they heard I was still deciding between them and GM. As in I was pleasantly surprised. They raised my asking salary. As in WOW. And the manager promised to make me an Account Director after only a short period of time--depending on my performance, of course. Backup is not really a PR agency. Rather, they're into mobile entertainment and they're developing a product and they want me to help market it. They're developing a product and the launch will be on December so they're in immediate need of people. I was flattered by one of the guys who interviewed me--I actually resisted him at first because he was so cold and a bit on the abrasive side. And then he checked out one of the press releases I wrote for Rockwell (old client) and he complimented me on my writing. Haha he's now my favorite interviewer. LOL I'm one test short in GM naman. I think I'll be hearing from them on Monday. What I love about this company is that it's very dynamic. I love working in PR agencies because you get to market different clients and products so you learn how to be versatile. And I love the company culture there! Lots of strong personalities, the bosses are just so...suffice to say, they have OOMPH. I think I'm going to really grow a lot there. Although I also love the idea about being a pioneer member in Backup. They're a big company already but they told me that they'll be making me a part of the team launching that new mysterious product. It sounds REALLY enticing. Plus the package is friggin good man! Decisions, decisions. They want to hear my final decision by Monday next week. I asked to have that extended til Friday. We compromised--I'll be informing them of my final decision on Wednesday. I hope GM offers before then too because I really need to weigh my choices carefully. I mean, I don't want this to be a repeat experience of my brief stint with that-company-which-I-shall-not-even-bother-naming. Hehe. Also had a meeting with other Outside Coaches (OCs) today. It was really fun! We're really making a career out of the tasks and activities assigned to us! So excited!!! Hehehe Watched Balls of Fury today with Wes too! It was a riot. I love love love Christopher Walken. He never fails to crack me up. Haha! And I had a New York Moment today! Kilig! :D Also, I'm going to Baguio this weekend!!! Wes and I volunteered to staff a FLEX workshop for kids! It'll be a blast. And I get to go to Baguio without any gastos. Eyeluvit!
