Uncertainty
I WANT to write a long blog entry about the things that I am worried about
But
I NEED to sleep. I think I am just physically, emotionally and mentally tired.
UNCERTAIN. UNSURE. DOUBTS. FEAR. Those words are bothering me for the past few days. If only I can do all the things I WANT and NEED to do all at the same time.
Goodnight World. Gah. Overthinking sucks :/
What’s Up, Body Clock?
It’s 6:45AM and majority starts to wake up and prepare for school or work. Me? Well.. I am about to sleep.
I am not working in a call center that requires me to work on graveyard shifts. I also don’t have any clients now from the US or UK to talk or chat with. For the past few hours, i’ve been reading blogs and trying to write on another publishing site. Did I have a productive day… errrr night?
Yesterday, i slept at 9:30AM and woke up for lunch. Went back to bed afterwards and woke up at 6:30pm. I know most would say ‘lucky you!’ or ‘i envy your life!’
But hey, don’t.
Four Years After College…
I left my favorite tambayan at 12:01 AM and on my way home, I checked my beloved N70 phone (Yes, i had it fixed!). I smiled upon reading the reminder I added four years ago with the text “Graduation
”
Wow. It’s been four years? FOUR YEARS?!
As a student, one of my professors told me that I looked like a ‘Rebel with a Cause’. Dumbfounded with his impression towards me, he explained that I am the type of person who will do whatever she wants especially when she knows she’s right. Well, that is partly true
CONTEST ALERT: Thank You, Global Pinoy! – The Yellow Bag Award
There is a saying that our beloved Overseas Filipino Workers or OFWs are the heroes of today. In Filipino, sila ang mga makabagong bayani. Trying your luck in a foreign country to secure a family’s future is not easy at all. I’ve witnessed some of our kababayans abroad (UK, Malaysia, Singapore) who are working hard so that they can send some money to their families back in the Philippines. Do you think leaving your husband, children or parents is easy?
I think almost every Filipino knows an OFW. I am proud to say that my mom is one of them and I do appreciate her sacrifices in order to give me and my brother a good life. She left the country six years ago and it is a decision that I didn’t agree on at first, but I learned to accept that it is a need especially with my brother’s condition. I went there last year and the scenarios being depicted in some of our OFW-related movies like Milan, Caregiver and Anak do happen in real life.
Whether we admit it or not, there are some instances wherein we fail to make them feel appreciated. Worse, we seldom say ‘Thank You’. Some only remember their OFW relative when they need money for school or health expenses. We only remember them when we need something. All they need is a little love and appreciation from the recipients of their hard-earned money.
Meet the Cast and Crew of ‘Aswang’: Is it Worth Watching?
It is my first time to be ‘indirectly’ involved in promoting a mainstream movie. The other Tuesday, I attended the second pocket press conference for the movie ASWANG, which was attended by its lead stars Paulo Avelino, Joem Bascon and Lovi Poe at Mesa Grill in Tomas Morato, Quezon City.
Just to give you a little background, Regal Films originally planned to produce an exact remake of the first ASWANG movie, where Alma Moreno played the lead role under the direction of Peque Gallaga and Lore Reyes twenty years ago. Since there is a big obvious change in the society in the past years, scriptwriter Aloy Adlawan decided to make a screenplay with the necessary adjustments. When Jerold Tarog saw it, he suggested that they play around with the characters of the film which includes the inclusion of the Abuwaks. The film has the horror, suspense, family, drama, action comedy and romance factor. All in one, ika nga. In-aswang na lahat ng genre LOL.
Now let’s go to the Meet and Greet the cast part………
