The Bottom Line
Don't worry if you are feeling blue. Emotions should be respected, not suppressed.

In Detail
It might feel like your emotions are taking over your entire life right now, but maybe that's not such a bad thing. If you feel tears welling or a giggle coming up from your belly, don't try to fight it. Just let it go and let yourself feel whatever you feel right now -- it's the only way to move through it. And don't worry if these feelings seem to be putting you in a grumpy or introspective mood. You are an imperfect human and it is a healthy thing to process all your feelings.

This is one among my eternal rewards for sharing my knowledge...

She doesn't know.
honestly, i already forgot that i created this blog 3 yrs ago...i never thought that it is still existing after not updating it for ages.I have to thank my lovely, gorgeous and intelligent mentor whom i always call Mam Daye because if not for her blog which provides a link to my own site, i would have not thought of reviving this one. It happened last Saturday while i was working, i decided to browse the net. In google, i typed her name and it promptly provided me a link to go to her well maintained blog. And in the links section i just noticed my name.

Mam Daye is also one of my few inspirations why i took up law while also working. She successfully passed the bar only last year. Just imagine, durng the time that she was in lawschool she had a full time job as an Executive Assistant to SC Justice Nachura and she was also a part time professor at PUP. Moreover, she was and still is, very active in two organizations where im also a part of. Her dedication to her work, studies and orgs is really something that is worth emulating.I just read in her blog that she already resigned as an Exec. Assistant to Justice Nachura and is now working in Makati.

I met her at Liberal Party HQ after i and my classmates joined the Kabataang Liberal ng Pilipinas. On my second year in PUP, she became my professor in Constitution. All of my other professors then were somewhat old and boring so our class was kinda "saved" from deterioration when she came. We had 8 subjects then (our class was a bolck section) and it seemed that during that time hers was the ONLY one that we had. The subject was complicated and therefore a little hard to understand for most of us (not for me though since it was (in PUP and now in lawschool) my fave subject- not bragging!) but it was well compensated by her intensity, knowledge and dedication to teach. Learning was not compromised.

i can write all day just about her but i guess that is not necessary anymore..she knows that i, together with so many other young people, respect and love her.I just thought that i need to sincerely thank her for paving the way for me to finally decide to revive this blog. She is indeed an inspiration!

My MOMMYLOVE might be on board a Philippine Airlines plane now from the USA and I am so excited to see her again.

The last six months has been a lot different for me because of her absence. I listed down five things I miss most about her:

1. She is my most effective wake-up alarm on Monday mornings when I have to catch the SC shuttle in Tabang, Guiguinto at 5am, since Mom left I always proceed to the next point in Bocaue because I woke up later than usual.

2. I miss her “mongo” filled with shrimps every Friday night. Nobody does “ginisang mongo” like she does, it has “magic" and and full of love.

3. I miss her garden and the orchids which my Dad messed up when he created his own landscape. Mom is the best when it comes to ornamental plants.

4. I miss hugging her and her hugging me back all throughout the night.

5. And the most special thing I miss about her… HER TOTALITY.

I’m so excited to see my Mommylove…

The Bottom Line
You're going to be impressing others today, and making very influential connections.

In Detail
You are going to be impressing others left and right today, and these people could make some important things happen for you. You are about to be invited into the inner circle, so get ready to show off some skills you haven't used in a while. But don't be nervous about your debut! These people want to get to know you better, and they already like what they see. So you should feel relaxed and confident. Your genuine charm is going to shine through. (my favorite part.Haha!)

for me to stay at the office beyond 8PM for overtime, but my work is so demanding that I have to stay.

Hmmm, I guess it’s a sort of constructive involuntary servitude, though I am not compelled to stay, my workload compels me to do so.

I miss my telenovelas and the Gurlstalk. Hayhay.

My new work has treated me fairly this week, maybe because it knows how much I babbled of the workload last time or it is because I am about to reap my first salary in the coming days. All in all, this week was fine except for the Monday and Tuesday, which almost made me resign. Thanks to one SAVP who encouraged me to stay a while in their company.

I am a born hard worker and patient and I know I can stay for a while in this company. I want to get some corporate practice and business skills from Señor, the first I can get anywhere but the latter I know this company is the best place.

Señor is a perfectionist; he is short tempered and wants things to be done maybe after 15-25 minutes after it was assigned to you, he is very passionate in business and truly an entrepreneur. I admire him.

Even though I am still adjusting from the micromanagement style of The Boss (my former and most loved Boss) to the micromanagement scheme of Señor, I can tell Señor would like me, so far he hasn’t shouted on me and he said I’m “fast” and “quick”, I don’t know what that would meant in his adjective vocabulary but I’m sure its not something negative.

My new officemates were helpful, they welcome me with so much warmth, special thanks to Mayeth, Mae and Arjay, I know I’ve been disturbing these guys for the simplest things. Ms. Paz, thanks for always reminding me of office procedures and protocol. Thank you also to Ms. Emily and Ms. Gigi for the worthy help in my most urgent assignment.

I will have to learn a LOT and for now I am staying subject to the principle “rebus sic stantibus”.

Last week was a 'helluvah' week for me. I started working in Makati and I’m not happy with the workload. It seems the company is getting each cent worth of what they are paying me, though in fairness they warned me prior to signing my contract.

It’s my 7th day on my new work and I feel like I’ve been working here for three months now. I don’t know if I can adjust with this kind of working environment, not to mention the sometimes incorrigible temper of the superiors.

To give it the benefit of the doubt, maybe I am still adjusting.

So, while I am still trying to find my place in the corporate world, please bear with me that I cannot blog as often as before.

Sigh.
