My Princess growing up so fast ...

My Princess and I went to the Mall yesterday for our usual weekend mall date. When we got to the accessories section she saw a display of hats and asked me to buy her one. When I asked why are buying a hat for P350 she proudly answers because I need a funky hat ! I tried to dissuade her, telling her we don't need an expensive hat and she started posing like a teenage model. So how can you say no to a beautiful Princess in a funky hat???

100 Days to Wellness

Since I've started this journey to wellness I've discovered new ways to replace rice in my diet. Everyday is a challenge  and I hope I can overcome the cravings ... I know I can do it just one day at a time...  #150lbsgoal

Journey to Wellness

Journey to Wellness

Journey To Wellness !

A couple of weeks ago I started feeling g numbness and tingling sensation in may hands and legs so I went to see the doctor.
First order of the doctor was for my to loose weight to avoid further problems. She also asked me to undergo xrays and blood / lab tests to ensure I wasn't suffering from diabetes... Luckily, blood sugar is OK but SGPT showed I have fatty liver.  A medical condition that can be treated with proper diet and weight lost.

Eager to be well and healthy, I bought a weighing scale to monitor my weight and progress ... Lo and Behold, got the shock of my life when I saw how heavy I've become ... This indeed a wake up call for me... to lower my weight to at least 150 by end of the year...  Its a big challenge but I've got push my self. And I know I can do it!

My Afternoon Pleasure

My Afternoon Bliss is gathering all my notebooks ( Pink- Finances, Planner for the Household, Planner for work, Pocket
planner)  and updating them one by one as i catch on old films or koreanovela :) I feel so lucky that I get to do the stuff I love most in between deadlines !

Keep the Faith

Keep the Faith !
It is so difficult if you are living with
people who has unpredictable mood swings... One moment they are super sweet, the next min they could get grouchy or worse, they couldn't care less and act as if u don't exist ... The only thing that will keep u going is your Faith that this too shall pass .... And you'll just pick up the pieces and move on.

#2nd Prayer

Today I'd like to pray for our dear batchmate Shallouh who'll undergo surgery and chemo soon.... Lord pls touch her heart and heal her so she can still be a source of love and strength for all her loved ones. I know you can take away all the fears and pain... I lift her up to you Lord. Amen

Today I Am Humbled

Today I am Humbled ....
I feel ashamed and humbled Lord ... see here I am troubled on how to raise my downpayment for a car I wanted... I've been praying and stressing out for days on how to raise said amount so I can get that brand new car I've been eyeing .... imagining what it would be like driving that small machine around town. And then tonight I received a message from a batchmate cancelling a meeting because she will have to undergo surgery and chemo the second time around, Here I am racking my brains out having sleepless nights on how to get that car while there's someone I know , a mother of three young girls who is thinking of how to win this war vs cancer.. All of a sudden my worries are so irrelevant and minute.... It is the Lord's way openning my eyes to view life.and enjoy life in a different perspective. I know the car can wait ... and there'll new models coming out. Like what I always say in the start of this car search journey..if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. everything will fall into place. In the meantime let me offer this special prayer for my dear batchmate, I know the Lord touch you and heal because you're His special daughter . I pray that He grants you strength to overcome all the medical procedures successfully so that at the end of the day you can go home to your beautiful house and embrace your wonderful daughters!

The Return of the Yaya

I am truly grateful that our Wonder Yaya has returned from her 6-day Sick Leave ... Everything is now back to.normal... I was able to attend my creative meeting just in time :)

DAY 6: YAYA-LESS

It's been almost a week since our wonder yaya  took a Sick Leave ... And everyday that pass by, I could feel the empty shoes that  needs to be filled. Yesterday I did the laundry (well just the undergarments) and my back really made it's presence felt. Today we imported someone to iron the clothes and paid a huge amount of  P450 for her service.

But the biggest mark/turning point was when my temper started to get the best of me and snapped at Julia for not following my orders. In an angry tone I told her " Mommy's getting mad na! " To which she replied " No mommy, di ka pwedeng magalit.. " At bakit hindi ako pwedeng magalit? " I asked her.  Without batting an eyelash, she replied " Eh kasi love kita eh" ... Kaboom... that hit me straight to my core ... With that answer how can i get mad at all?

Day 4: Yaya Less

It's been four (4) straight days since our dear Boss Bem took a leave due to UTI.. So it's been 4 days since I've been wearing the domestic Goddess cap to a T! I've realized I've been dependent on our yaya all these years that doing the household chores has been a big task on   my shoulders. I'm just glad that we're currently in between shows so I don't have to juggle my hands with work and household chores. The only consolation i have is I get to spend  every waking moment with my princess since it's her sem break. And everyday she becomes such a blessing to me ...  although my whole day revolves around her, i know i should cherish every moment bec before i know it, she'll grow up fast and would choose to be in her own world.

To conclude, being yaya less can be very tiring and stressful but  looking at the bright side, i get to spend and care for my family hand on , 100% !

My Team, My Family ..

I am so lucky to be part of GMA' creative team... Moreso, I am blessed to be part of Team Agnes because we're big happy familym Although there were changes and some bumpy roads that we had had to hurdle, still we manage to overcome with flying colors. More challenges and  stories to write, we know we can overcome any challenges because we're a tough team to crumble.

Good News and Not so Good News!

Today was a day of news and ironies. Out of the blue, received a message from GMA  Staff that  my much  awaited contract  is ready for pick-up/signing. I feel so blessed because finally I could feel the much needed security in my writing career. Since I started  more than a decade ago, this is the first time a network offered me an exclusive contract. This means  I don't have to be stressed out with my finances because I will be getting a retainer's fee. I am so overwhelmed because now I can secure Julia's tuition fees and other expenses. I can even save up money for the future which i have been desperately trying to do but can't seem to succeed.  But more than the financial side, I am so overwhelmed with the trust GMA Management have given me despite my tenureship (8 months since I joined the network). I couldn't help but compare how my former network, ABS-CBN treated me. I was with them  for a long  time but they never  gave me this recognition even  after the long years of service and loyalty. I am really grateful for the opportunity and blessing, GMA has given me.

But my happiness was short lived when I learned that I have no salary for this payout.  Meaning no income to tide me over just when I have bills to pay and  obligations to meet. Now I have to go back to borrowing money from  people just to survive until the next payday. Well, looking at the brighter side, it's not something major  that  i have to  hurdle. Yes this will require  tightening my belt   for  a couple of weeks but we've been thru worse and I'm sure we'll overcome this one just like the previous challenges.

At the end of the day I am still grateful for the Big Blessings from GMA and for the people  who continue to help us to tide things  over. I am still lucky and blessed  despite the drawbacks. And I know these  shortcomings  are/ just nuggets that adds to the sparkle and  glitters of  wonderful  blessings from above!

MY BFF Family

This is the Wacky and Brilliant Creative Team behind MY BFF Show.... One of the Best Shows I've been part of not only because of the beautiful story but  because of  Friends/Colleagues  I work with. Indeed, Team AGU is a team to contend with  simply because We're ONE BIG HAPPY FAMILY having fun while working ....  Hey, even the big bosses  noticed it (wink!wink!)  :)

Mother and Daughter Slippers

I am not much of a Shopper or what you call a Mall Rat but I really got excited when Julia and I saw these matching slippers.  Aside from being cute (with it's "blueberry lollipops and strawberry swirl" designs) what excites me more is the fact that my Little Princess has grown big and can now wear matching footwear (and not to mention adult size slippers size 5 1/2 ). If only I could get hubby to wear the same thing, it would've perfect hehehe...

Who knows next time, I might get lucky and find matching outfits !!!

My BFF ... Another Masterpiece to Catch

It's been months since my last Post and  a lot has happened since then. Summer passed by  quietly and briefly,  and now just  a week  short before classes start again.  

I am grateful that  Our New Show, My BFF  will soon  conquer  the Boob Tube.  It's a project I am so proud of  and happy to be part of.  Hope this will touch people's  lives and inspire them to hold on the  best gifts in life... Your friends and your family !

Ang bilis nun...Lord ! Thanks !

Last night I was just praying kay Lord for assistance after learning that my TF for Mpk will only be  released  by the 10th of April, almost a month from now. I was deeply bothered because I have bills to pay so i posted my  concerns on FB. Lo and behold, an  old friend from highschool responded and sent money thru western union, no questions asked. Sobrang galing ni Lord,.express talaga ang sagot! Thank u Lord and higit sa lahat, thanks for sending Brenda to answer my prayers .

Thank You For Toxic Days...

Yep you read it right, I am grateful for toxic -productive days. Days that start with my cup of coffee and toasted bread, and then taking care of My Julia  and bringing her to school and then writing to meet deadlines. Toxic to juggle everything but I am not complaining   because it simply meant I have work to do literally and figuratively.  I am thankful that I  deadlines to.meet and that I have a chance to do.what I love to do most and that is writing. I just hope and pray that I have deadlines coming because it simply means people believe in my craft :)

Welcome 41st year with smiles and good vibes

The year that passed was a big roller coaster ride, full challenges, smiles and tears .. it was full of excitement with big projects ( KKI AND HKLM), big surprises (pregnancy @ 40) but full of heartaches as well,( miscarriage, shows and projects being cancelled.and left out) but with  new friendships and beginnings @ GMA Network...

This year i only have simple wishes and dreams, good health for my family and friends, projects to work on and continue to enjoy the simple joys of life ....   not too much grandeur but indeed.a workable and realistic goal to achieve

When Your Little Girl Cries ....

Yesterday when I came home from doing errands my Little Princess greeted me with tears  of frustrations when she showed my her scores from her 3rd quarter Exam. She was so worried all she could say was I'm sorry Mommy repeatedly for not getting goid grades. And when hubby came home from work the more disappointed and scared she was, crying more openly. Instead of getting angry and scolding her, i gave her a Big Hug to assure her she is loved no matter what. We also agreed to cut down play time and to study harder so we can get better grades next time.

It breaks our heart to see our daughter in tears ... you could feel her pain in not being able to deliver what is expected. You can feel the low self esteem  and disappointment in her , and to think she's just 8 years old and kids her age should be carefree and having fun .

It is never easy to see your little one crying...  as my moms would only say, if i could do things for you and take the pai  away.... but little girls need to cry too they would learn from their mistakes and frustrations in life .... they need to shed a tear or two so mommies can give them a big hug and let them know they are loved, no matter what .

Old friends are such a Treasure

The other while i was sick and in pain due to pharyngitis and asthma i posted or should i say ranted how expensive my meds were. To get well i actually need to shell out something like P2000 for all the meds prescribed by the doctored. For someone  who works on  a project basis, 2k   is such a big amount to spare. The status i posted in FB was just to share me sentiments.

Unexpectedly, someone across the globe an old college friend read my post and offered to send meds for my asthma. An unsolicitated gesture (pardon me for not thinking of a better term) that touched my deepest core because i haven't seen or heard from  my college for more than 20 years now. It amazes me how old friends would reach out and show kindness when you least expected it.

And to my dear au dalisay of UST AB 1A, you are truly a blessing from above. Thank you for yhe gift of friendship.. May God bless you more and more !

Goals for 2014

Its almost.1:30am and here i am again, couldnt sleep... so instead of staring at the ceiling, i mustered enough courage to go down grab a bite and blog the time away...

There are a thousand one things i'd like to do but dont know where to start.. ironically when you have time in your hands you tend to procastinate.. so to remedy this problem i've decided to come.up with my goals for 2014!

For on the list is the commitment to be deligent to abide to my priority list wether its as basic as my to do list or grocery list or as challenging as my budget list. If i can master this skill and discipline myself then i have bigger chances of  achieving my other goals... they say one should start somewhere .

Next on my list is to loose weight bigtime... as in loose 50lbs which is a difficult task but not impossible. This requires a change of lifestyle which i am willing to do because i intend to grow old in good health as i watch my daughter walk down the aisle.

Lastly I hope and pray to be financially stable in 2014, to be debt free with savings of P100000K ... i dont how to achieve this but i've got to the best way i  can !

My DIY 2014 Planner

This is the time of year when  people  try to  get as  many stickers  as they can to get  the Starbucks Planner ...  Since  I can't  afford to buy all those coffee,    I've  decided to make my own...    At  least  with my  Planner, I am in command.. I can put whatever pictures,  captions and   sections   I feel  applicable to my New  Life as full time Mom and Writer... Looking forward  2014  with  all the opportunity it  brings  with my Planner !

A Different Perspective

I've been feeling sad the past couple of days and as a result have been blogging negative vibes and insights. Nothing much changed on my situation as  of the moment, i'm still lost, in debt, depressed and penny less. But today I've decided to try a different approach ... to be positive, grateful and optimistic because at the end of the day, i should still be thankful becuse i am alive and I've got my family with me..
Let me start this new approach  by thanking the Lord for this day, spending the day with julia in her intrams ... watch her play games and enjoy group games and try her best to.make new friends. I know it'll take a few more tries before she can finally find a bestfriend she can call her own... but i know she'll be lucky to have one later on.
Today i feel so happy and proud to see her participate in group games. So what if she needs to work on her speed and coordination... i am just happy she is having fun. Last night we went to a friend's family gathering and she gamely played with the young kids . I'm happy that she's getting comfy with other kids and having fun ! Soon she'll have a barkada of her own.

Lucky to have the Best Mentor

Today I was in cloud 9 because of the good reviews I recieved from my Mentor, Tita A.... she was my first headwriter, confidante and Mom rolled into one.  There was a time we parted ways when i decided to take a back seat due to matters of the heart, and eventually started a family life. And when we she moved to a different network we seldom saw each other but the love did not falter.

This year i had issues with my network  who treated me badly. And just like a wounded daughter ,  i ran to her waiting arms for comfort and strength. Indeed she welcomed me to her team and fought for me .

I may years of writing experience and an award to boot but the best reward ever was to hear her say " that was a good script and  I AM BACK ! "

Love u Tita A....

Posted via Blogaway

Thank you for the simple joys

Day started out late as both julia and I tried to put in a few more time lying in bed this lazy sat morning. We finally got our butts moving for a quick trip to the grocery to buy stuff and my korea-novela series .....

Thank you for this relaxing day and try to be as worry free as possible. Tom is a brand new day as we look forward to breakfast with my siblings .....another bonding time for julia and  i with my family ...

Thankful for Work

Today i went to my MBAP Creative Mtg to discuss story for upcoming weeks. Admittedly, i am a bit wary because upto now i am.still waiting for my next assignment, not to mention my pay .... and when they said that there's a possibility that the show might be cut short the more i became nervous because this is technically my bread and butter. I guess this is  where faith should set in. Learn to trust and believe that good things will come... we just have to believe.

So for now i am thankful that i have a show to write ....  show to be proud of and show to hold on to .... thanks to Tita A and to the bes creative team Gin, Glay, Bel, Paul, Jessie and Patrick !!!!!

When Sadness sets in ....

I have been feeling the blues from time to time like a roller coaster ride for quite sometime now. From the day i was ordered bed rest by my doctor upto this minute where i lay wide awake  beside my princess, sadness sets in...  when i told hubby i feel.depressed and he asked me why, i couldn't give a clear answer....  if you think about i have no reason to feel sad, and more importantly i have no reason to feel depressed compared to the victims of super typhoon yolanda or with what an officemate is going thru right now, spending 55 days in the hospital  due.to her hubby's illness .... but  i cant hide or deny it,  bec bottomline is i am not happy with where i am right now ...   i am just hoping and praying that I'm just going thru a phase, and that sooner or later,.things will be better again ....

Posted via Blogaway

I feel :(

I know i shouldn't feel sad at all bec I am lucky and blessed that we we're not affected by the super typhoon, and that me and my familg is in the best of health but cant seem to shake off the blues away ...

Lord I pray for good days to come ...

Feeling Bothered

Wish I could just   shrug off  stuff  in my mind that's been bothering me....    downside   of having  a lot  of time in your hands... you tend to " Overthink  Things" and  feel guilty about it :(

Another Insomia Attack

Its 4:15am and i'm still wide awake, the downside of resigning from my day job, my insomia came back. Just when i've lessen my coffee and soda in take , the caffeine in my system seems to be working overtime.

Being awake the whole night makes me realize the importance of living healthy ... makes me commit to loose weight so i can enjoy life with my hubby and princess .

So starting today its going to be a lifestyle change for me. I know its not easy but i will have to do it one day at a time. This will be my mantra, my christmas gift to myself and my family . PROMISE

Hope I wont be Treated the same...

I went to Pizza Hut for a quick snack after doing errands when a rich looking family  ( the couple were busy playing w/ their gadgets while waiting for their orders) sat right nexr to my table.
I noticed that the Lola handed over her senior citizen card along with her payment for her order in advance and the Daddy accepted it w/o hesitation. I couldn't help but wish i wont experience the same treatment from my love ones when i grow old. Pains to see that the young Dad could not even cover the P99 meal for the lola of the family .... hay .... pagdating nga naman sa bayaran walang magulang !

Almost There ....

I've been praying for the past couple of days to give me the strength to make the Big Leap of Faith @ 40, to let go of the day job / call center job and concentrate on writing and business. I just need to talk to Tita A for confirmation and I'm almost there ... Tom I should make the right decision .

A Lot In My Mind ...

It's 2:20 am and I am still wide awake. I am not sure if its the caffeine overload or  i just have tons of things in my mind ...You see i have made a big switch by transfering to GMA early this month and since then I have  wrote a whole week worth of script.  Though it may not be the best script to impress the big bosses but at least its a start ....

Now  I find myself in a crossroad again, to go back to work next week or to pursue full time.writing and just to guide julia since she's having a hard time in school lately... and the biggest factor is  when she asks me not to go back to.work  anymore. It pains my heart to leave her in the mornings again... and there's a big thug when she says " sa house na lang si mommu, magsulat na lang si Mommy " .  How I wish I  can Just give in just like  that.

That's why I've been praying all night for guidance and strength to take the Big Leap... I know all I have to do is trust and The Lord will help and guide me to the Right Path

Special Cupcakes

  When  I first saw  our  dear Yaya   Bem   make  creations out of  clay I knew that   she has a  big potential   with cupcake  creations. With  little  money to spare, we decided to make a few  samples  to share.  I  hope this will be another  fruitful venture,

 

 

 

 

Goodbye Kapamilya, Hello Kapuso

After being treated badly by my CDG Group and after series of disappointments, i finally found the courage to take the Big Leap and transfer networks.  It's scary leaving your comfort zone, starting anew especially if your not young anymore but once you are treated badly you owe it to yourself to look for better opportunities and move on.

I'm very lucky there are friends willing to help and welcome me with arms wide. Full of love and support, the fears and uncertainties slowly vanished. Its still a long way to go but I'm looking forward to this new journey ... but for now, let's start the pen moving !!

Feeling the Blues... When will this stop ?

They say it comes in three's ... First the miscarriage, then the resources , now I've been taken out of the CDG bec I couldnt attend the meetings bec i was on leave ...

Sabi nila Kapamilya ka pero  bakit  balewale trato nila ...

Cant Sleep... My Mind's Working

Its 2:45 am and i am still wide awake . I dont know if its because the glass of coke i drank before bedtime or my mind is just working overtime with ideas.

I'm excited and at the same time scared about a new business venture me and my gifted yaya Bem  would like to try. With the help of some friends and families, we'll try our hand in baking and selling cupcakes. My ever reliable and generous highschool friends are nice enough by lending not only their trusted recipes but as well as oven for the said endeavor. My gut feel tells me this will be a big hit  that"s probably why my mind is so fired up..
How i wish the excitement fades out so i can now fall asleep

Back to Work

My first scheduled creative meeting after a long break

Good Morning !

It's Saturday and we woke up extra early due to the noisy constructions  a couple of yards away.  This pissed us off because started as early as 7am.... The only consolation is i can hear the chirping of the birds as well which we seldom hear  in this modern day and time. Makes me smile and appreciate life more...

My 2 Month Bucket List

Since I'm technically out of work for 2 months I might as well set up things to accomplish to get me going.... 1. Set up Financial Plan for the next 2 months 2. Coop Update 3. Set up Cupcake business for Joan 4. Set up Traldj business. 5. Segregate Files. 6. Julia's scrap book 7. Weekend vacation I'm aiming to accomplish at least 4 out 6 tasks... Let's see how far I can go :)

Getting Over It and Moving On

Just got home from the hospital and waiting for Princess to come home from school, thankful that I've got some time and space for myself... I need this ... I hope this will be the last time I will be pouring my thoughts about what I've went thru the past 2 weeks ... it was not easy ... I knew when I heard My OB/Ate Cynthia asked " Gusto nyo pa bang magka baby?" I was in for the bad news (as if Losing my Little Angel is not enough) My reproductive system is not as perfect as it used to be since I've got Myomas around my uterus. At first I was not alarmed when I learned about it because I knew these were common and can go away in time or during pregnancy but due to my recent miscarriage, apparently, the myomas could've aggravated the situation and worse may give the same result if I try to get pregnant again... so in other words there is no assurance I wont suffer the same fate if I conceive again in the future. Warning Bells start to ring and ultimately, Hubby and I will have to forego of our dream of having another baby. Technically, its a double whammy for me, I've lost my little one and would be too risky to have another one in the future..... At least the tears are gone now and I can move on and accept the things I can never have.... TIME TO GET OVER IT AND MOVE ON .... Life is still beautiful, Keep the Faith because I know despite all these, God truly loves ME !

Pls Stop The Tears

Its almost midnite and the tears now start to fall and i cant seem to stop them.. For the first time after my miscarriage i am grieving for the little one i have just lost..  There are no more hushed requests to help mommy be well as we start the day, or make mommy sleep as early as 8:30pm. No more excuses for pastas or sweets... because my baby is gone ...   bye my little one, mommy loves you !

Happy Sunday

Need i say more????

Another Day

Another day @ home . Most of my colleagues envy me because I get to spend the whole week at home doing nothing ... Wish I could say I am having the time of my life, but sadly no.... My only consolation is I get to spend time with my precious priness and watch movies and get back to my reading list ... buy just the same, cant help but feel the blues :(.

Feeling The Blues .. Again

Here I am , done allocating funds for the household and feeling the blues .. its so depressing to see that after you receive your paycheck nothing is left after you pay all the bills ... hay wish i could just breathe ..

One Big Roller Coaster Ride

Almost three months ago, hubby and I along with family and friends were beaming with joy when we confirmed the new addition to the family.Finally, after almost 8 years our little Princess will now have a sibbling. The first few weeks were not easy due to dizzy spells and fatigue but with hubby's and close friends help, i was able to surpass the first month. Just when i was getting used to my pregnancy things start to take a different turn and found myself in the middle of a roller coaster ride as we wait for 2 dreadful weeks if the pregnancy will progress in its natural course. What pains me more is to see the sadness in hubby's eyes everytime he asks me if I'm okay? My heart is crushed when Julia touches my tummy and ask if she'll be an Ate Soon... I know its too early to concede and lose hope and excitement.. miracles can still happen ... My only prayer at this time is to grant me the grace, wisdom and strength to accept what's best for us. I know our Lord will only give what's BEST for me. The journey continues .. let's Keep the faith .....

FALLING DOWN AND BOUNCING BACK....

Last  Night   My Little Princess  suffered a  minor fall  on the stairs  when she missed  a step.  Good thing she  landed  on her  butt and  no major injury.  After  a loud cry , bruised ego and  a pack of ice, she was  back on her feet   and playing  again.  What was horrifying was to see her fall off the stairs right before  my  eyes. I guess this is part of parenthood,  see your  child fall,  guide  her back on her feet and  wait till she  moves on.....   I just  hope  she  doesnt  bounce off the stairs  anymore (literally)

Its raining again...

Its been raining for 10 straight days and some roads and houses are now under water. Hope the rains would stop soon and we'll all be safe and sound.

SEC ... Reminiscing...

Here @ SEC waiting our  business papers to be released.As I wait for my brother couldnt  help but reminince how once in my life (30 years ago) this agency used to be a big   playground for me. I grew up running around the 5th floor where my dad used to work. All the guards and staff would greet us with a smile as i wait for  my dad to  finish his business.. which he did as the chairman of the agency after  working for several  decades. Although he has passed  the  position to  his   subordinates his memory and legacy lives on.
