What Glenn Means

You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs. You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow. You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily. Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.

In Love na ako sa kanya!!

It has been days that my heart is pounding each time I look at my "Treasure Box" (my box containing important documents - TOR, Birth Cert, Certificates of Recognition, and some stuff).. I'm like so confused (not because of my gender), but whether to go back to school and earn my Master's Degree. I have always dreamed of getting another title for my name. After my Undergraduate course (BSE and BS Mathematics), I have always thought of getting a Master's Degree in either Mathematics, Teaching, or even Business Administration... Hahay...

Dreaming of Adding that Three letters after my name...
       Glenn C. Llevado, MBA
              Glenn C. Llevado, MAT
                   Glenn C. Llevado, MEd Math
                      Glenn C. Llevado, MSM...

Things to Consider:

    Schedule (of Course... Night Shift/Graveyard shift)
    Finances (Tuition ni Sweet , but hey, I have 25k to spend per year... Thanks to EAP of my Employer )

             

I So Love this song!!!

Thanks to my Online Friend... repost ko lang coz I Like it and I know this is so TRUE!!!

 

A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, "How heavy is this glass of water?"

Answers called out ranged from 8oz. to 20oz.

The lecturer replied, "The absolute weight doesn't matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it. If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an ambulance."

"In each case, it's the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes."

He continued, "And that's the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won't be able to carry on."

"As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden."

"So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work/life down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow."

"Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can. Relax; pick them up later after you've rested. Life is short. Enjoy! "

And then he shared some ways of dealing with the burdens of life:

1* Accept that some days you're the pigeon, and some days you're the statue.

2* Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them.

3* Always read stuff that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.

4* Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their Maker.

5* If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.

6* If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

7* It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

8* Never buy a car you can't push.

9* Never put both feet in your mouth at the same time, because then you won't have a leg to stand on.

10* Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

11* Since it's the early worm that gets eaten by the bird, sleep late.

12* The second mouse gets the cheese.

13* When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

14* Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.

15* You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.

16* Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

17* We could learn a lot from crayons. Some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box.

18* A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

It's been a while that I have written a somewhat serious BLOG... Well maybe, I'm just too overwhelmed with all the things that are happening right now to me - work, relationship, and responsibilities...

But thinking hardly, what's in it for me this year... Yeah, this blog may be a bit late since it's almost mid-February, but what the heck... Thoughts are just coming and I might put it in to writing.

>>> I am getting bigger!! OMG!!! I need to loose some weight... not just some but a lot of weight... I have been like this since then but some people already noticed the increase of my body mass... Just compare the pictures... WTF... OMG!!!













>>> I've never been happy with my partner and soulmate right now... We might have some mishaps and petty fights at times, but I have never been so complete with my Hubby... Just had our First Year Anniversary last Feb. 5... Simple celebration as it may, but it was more than what I wished for... Having someone beside me, hugging me before I sleep, and being my angel and my inspiration with all the things that I do... Who could ask for more...
>>>This year is a big challenge for me career-wise... I reached my goal of becoming a B1 last year, and I am pushing myself to be a B2 after a year... I might be too ambitious but hey, I know I can do it... My boss is the best... My peers and colleagues are the best... All I need is the drive and the passion to do the best I can do to attain that goal... I know that I will always get guidance and support from everybody... I have no plans of leaving the "Company" yet because I know it's the best... I made the right decision of staying and it's paying off... As the saying goes -->> Patience is always a virtue...

>>>This year will also be my sister's Debut... And for me (and my sister) it's one of the biggest event of her life... I want to let her experience how it is having a Debut Party... I have a lot of dreams and plans for my sister... I'm still deciding to throw her that party... It might not be possible financial-wise since I also pay her quite high tuition... But let's hope for the best... I might win Lotto one of these days...

>>>I just miss my family... My vacation trip last December was a blast... Spending some time with them is worth remembering... They are the center of my life and my drive to be the best that I can be... Whatever I am right now will always be because of them... This year will also be the retirement year of my papa... I wish I can give him the retirement that he deserves... I know he doesn't want to retire since he still needs the finances for our family, but, he needs a big rest... Spend time with his Apo - Yammy, and just relax... He has been working for more that 30 years already, and I mean hard labor.. I've seen how he struggles each day just to keep the family moving... Papa your the best....


Well... I guess, my nose is starting to bleed now... But it was a relief pouring out all the emotions and the feelings out... 2008 will be a big year for me... I know that it will be tough, but I will be tougher for my sister, my hubby, my family, and of course for myself.

This probably something hit a couple of minutes ago. I saw a picture of my friend here in multiply resting in a couch after a day of dancing... and read a blog from Jules (my friend from Davao) how dancing became a part of her life...

Well yeah, I Miss dancing so much... I should say it was and will always be a part of my life... It's like breathing and living all at the same time... I know, my body-type now is not suitable for dancing... But who cares right... I still have the moves and the passion.. I just don't have the priviledge of time to do the one thing that will always make me happy... Dancing made me whole... with the applause and the standing ovation after the show... The never ending smiles in each dance routine... The endless make-up and costume change... The "warm-up" and "cool-down" after hours and hours of dancing... The broken ankles and the muscle pains after doing stretches and splits and russian splits and stag leap and pirrouettes...

Dancing will always be in me... I miss dancing so much!!! =(

January 8, 2008 9:40pm Cebu Pacific Air 5J968 bound for Manila.

What a perfect Holiday Vacation... Visited my relatives and had a great time with them... Seeing my former School and former co-faculty slash teachers... Seeing my friends and former students... Having Tuna Sisig and Chicken in a Basket Pulutan with 5 bottles of Red Horse (500mL) and paying less than five Hundred bucks at my most favorite place - Cafe Jacinto... Riding "Non-airconditioned" Taxi... Having Coffee (Mocha Frap, Caffe Latte, etc.) for less than a hundred bucks... Durian Coffee... Eating to my hearts desire... Fruits galore... Grilled Fish... Sinigang na Baboy... Cable TV... Trisikad... Bulkachong... And the List Goes on...

For sure, it will take sometime again before I can experience all of these... I will surely miss these... And most of all My Family...

But... Knock Knock... I'm going back to reality... I will be back to the uber cold office, the routine of waking up at around 4pm to prepare for work, go home at around 5am or 6am, sleep, and then work...

Well this year for sure will  be a blast... Aside from the fact that I (along with Jem, JC, Boom, Danica, Tris, and Lui) are now Associate Trainers, come February 3 will be me and my hubby's first year anniversary. I will also be turning 2 years old with the Best Company - Convergys...

I am just waiting to finally pack my things and go to the airport. to d aipot... and of course, to see my Hubby again... I Miss him I miss Him!!!

PS>>> Hope I can have another LOONNNNGGG Holiday Vacation again... and that my flight won't be delayed!!!

9 Months... And Counting...

Just a glimpse of me and my hubby all Captured in One Photo Mosaic...


My Thanks goes out to Billy... Wonderful Birthday Gift!!! Lab you Bill

It has been a long year for me... And I know it will never stop... Aside from the fact that Multiply is BLOCKED it my station (No way for me to relieve stress), my life here in Manila has been a routine...






Monday to Friday...

Starting the week by waking up at around 5pm to prepare for work and then ride a Jeep (sometimes Taxi... hehehehehe), ask the jeepney driver to drop me off at Northgate... Walk for one block with my mp3 player or having my mobile phone headset play some music from my phone... have a stick or two of cigarette... usual greeting of hi's and hello's to some CVG peps... Have my bag checked by the guard.. ask the receptionist to open the Training room.. use the stairs to go to the second floor where the training pod is located... log-in to the PC... TKS... LOTUS... S Drive... then the work starts... to Lunch or not to Lunch... Yosi break and a Starbucks mug filled with NESCAFE coffee from the Vendo... Chika here chika there... Back to work... Meetings and Calib in between... Final touches to my work or any admin tasks... TKS... prep to go home... Swipe the Employee Badge... Check the bag... Buhbyes to some peps.. Beso here beso there beso everywhere... walk to the jeepney terminal with yosi and music playing... ride jeepney... drop off in front of Chowking Almanza... Cross the street... walk for one block... To breakfast or not to breakfast... Open gate... rest a bit with another stick of yosi... wash up... dry my hair... final retouches before sleeping... hugs and kisses from my hubby... and then zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....

And the cycle goes on and on...

Some changes happen though if I go home with a ride from either Mike G or Mike B... but the same old routine...

Not Complaining... Just blogging about how my life is happening every day of the week...

Happy??? Hell Yeah... I have a wonderful LOVING Hubby at home... Great Friends at work... Best Colleagues and BOSS ever... Good Pay...

And it what keeps me alive...

But still...


PS>>> Saturday and Sunday vary from  week to week...

Saw some pics online from Tito Chinbon from one of the BEST Shows that LCB- Performing Arts Center ever produced - WU (Chinese for Dance). I just so miss DANCING...

 

Can't help the longing for that adrenalin-rush each time you perform on-stage and people just look at you... The feeling of nostalgia everytime you hear roaring applause from the audience, and the ecstacy of seeing smiles on their faces and congratulating you for a JOB well Done...

 

I think I have come to a chapter in my life that I will have less time to dance... or even not to Dance at all... Aside from the body physique changing drastically (and I mean VERY Drastic), my job gives me less to no time for me to go back to Dance School....

 

But Dancing will always be a part of my life... And I always believe that I Should Always Dance... Like Nobody is WATCHING... And that I was and am Born to DANCE!!!

A lot of times i have been wondering why I have this insecurity in me. Yah I know... All of us do have our insecurities in one way or another... But, in my case, it starts to get in to me again... Slowly paralyzing every inch of my being...

You might think, what the hell am I thinking... I have the personality, the bubbliness in the world, the worry-free attitude, dream Job, dream Pay, dream Life... I have nothing to be insecured of. People even envy me because I have a partner in Life - my Hubby...

I thought that it will all be gone... I once had this parasite in me before; gone for quite sometime, and I thought it was gone... all gone... flushed down the drain... As Celine Dion would sing "It's all coming back to me now"... I don't know how long this would take... I don't know when will I get back and stand up, and find my confidence back...

 

Your Seduction Style: Fantasy Lover

You know that ideal love that each of us dreams of from childhood? That's you! Not because you posess all of the ideal characteristics, but because you are a savvy shape shifter. You have the uncanny ability to detect someone's particular fantasy... and make it you. You inspire each person to be an idealist and passionate, and you make each moment memorable Even a simple coffee date with you can be the most romantic moment of someone's life By giving your date exactly what he or she desires, you quickly become the ideal lover. Your abilities to make dreams come true is so strong, that you are often the love of many people's lives. Your ex's (and even people you have simply met or been friends with) long to be yours. No doubt you are the one others have dreamed of... your biggest challenge is finding *your* dream lover.

I thought all is well

I thought everything is clear

I thought I am forgiven

Well I guess, I am not...

 

Each day I feel lost...

Each day I feel pain

Each day I feel hurt

Well I guess, it's not over yet

 

I'm crying... crying inside

I'm really hurt... hurting Inside

 

It has been a roller coaster ride for me for the past few days. My friends/colleagues might have not noticed it, but yes, I am being Paranoid.

True enough, WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND... Like the Circle of Life... Like the Infinity Sign... What ever you did before will always come back at you.

 

I don't know if I Can handle it... I don't know if I will go Crazy...  My heart starts to beat and leap fast each time I think of what's going on...  I can't even hear myself, until I just shut off and feel numb... I froze and tears just rush through my cheeks...

YES... This is what I have to pay for what I did... I'm scared if it truly is happening...

 

IF what scares me happens, I don't know what I can and will do...

 

Please...
