Enigma of the Heart

Since I haven't blogged for quite a long time already, I wasn't able to upload our holiday pictures. Our holiday celebration was a blast! My husband's here, we're so blessed, and I am so thankful! :)

PRE- HOLIDAY SHOTS

I am actually very nervous now because today is my first day for working for a new account, with new people and under new supervisors. I don't know what to expect. The good thing about it is that we have a fixed day off- weekends; plus the fact that it's non voice, back office. I really don't want the schedule (it's 9pm-6am)- graveyard. When I get home from work my husband's at work already. We will only have a few hours together before I get to work- which is so sad.

I hope that I could start blogging again. I missed this so much. Last year I started working and so I haven't found time blogging anymore. But this year, I'll try to squeeze this in my very busy schedule. I haven't even uploaded our pre and post Holiday pics in here yet. I didn't realize we have a lot of catching up to do! :)

Aside from the full time job I have, I also do a part time job as well. It's a work-at-home special agent. See how busy I am? And I have made a mistake to commit on an 8-1 sked... :(

I have started my Victory small group yesterday. It was nice, having to meet and learning about God.

I'm really very sleepy already. I have to end my shift now and go to sleep. I still have work later. See you tomorrow.

when new year comes, it is automatic for most of us to create a list of our new year's resolutions- that after 10 days or so we eventually forget or discard. it actually takes some determination to make your resolutions work.

i am a fan of these new year's resolution that i make a list of the things i want to change for myself every year. in the long run i will fail to remember those resolutions i made and everything will be back to normal. truth is i stopped doing it- until now.

when i look back at the previous year, definitely there are some things i need to change, habits i need to break, and qualities i have to improve. the ultimate reason why i made this up is because i wanted to bring glory to God all the more- more and more. but i also wanted to do this for myself- so i won't commit the same mistakes i did last year. i want to be more matured, grown- up. i don't want to act as if i didn't learn at all, or didn't improve at all. so i had to write a list of what i want to change and what i wanted to do more this year.

1. to EXCEL in everything i will do and in every task or responsibility i am assigned to. AIM NOT MEDIOCRITY, but exceed expectations!

2. to NOT BE EASILY DISCOURAGED. to be a lot more optimistic, and TRUST GOD  more.

3. to sleep early and wake up early. or at least wake up early.

4. READ MORE and less facebook. aim at reading at least 1 book a month.

5. to LEARN NEW THINGS this year, be more productive. (keyboard/guitar, spanish/korean, photography)

6. AIM TO IMPROVE and enhance myself- my skills, talents and abilities and overall personality.

7. PRAY MORE and spend more time for devotions and quiet times.

8. maintain weight of 95 kg.

9. DON'T QUIT!

10. to be LESS ANGRY and more SELF CONTROLLED and more PATIENT.

by God's grace, I CAN DO THIS! :) aja, aja!

farewell, 2009 and hello 2010! i will cherish the memories i had with you and i will make more memories to cherish this year!

at new year's eve i prepared for our new year's dinner and cleaned the house. i started around 10am and finished 10pm. i enjoyed all the work (as long as i'll be doing that kind of work once a year :) i'd prefer to be busy than idle. i get sleepy when i don't do anything. and man, that's most tiring- doing nothing at all.

too bad i wasn't able to take a lot of pictures of the celebration. i was busy with cooking and after that i had to calm my daughter. she cried a lot during new year, the sound of the fireworks scared her. i didn't get the chance to view aerial fireworks display for we have to sit all the time infront of the computer, watching funny videos in youtube. but that's ok. as a parent i would set aside my interests for my kids' welfare.

here are the only pictures i took during the new year's celebration. and an additional photo of the blue moon. the sky was so clear that time and the moon was vivid, i was tempted to capture a few shots of luna.
