Keep the ball rollin' :)

Now that we're finally done with our presentation (will create an entire RANT post about it after), I'm going to finish this 50 questions first. We're still in the conference hall watching the CBP presentations and as a full pledged multitasker with a rather short attention span, I have to finish my long to-do list to keep myself from dozing off. Hihihihihi :) 





6. If you were drunk would the person you like take care of you? 
    I WISH? Hahaha! Well I highly doubt that I'll be put in a situation with him where I can get THAT drunk in the first place. Hihihihi. 
    But if and in the event that it happens, I hope he would. PATAY NA. 

7. Do you think you'll be in a relationship 2 months from now? 
    I have no idea but I'm pretty sure I won't. Mainly because of the drought and I don't have the time too. After Demo Challenge, a pile of work is waiting for me back home and I have a lot of other things to commit to like teaching, Toastmasters, yoga class and my business. 

8. Who from the opposite gender is on your mind? 
    HMMM. I guess this guy presenting from Maldives. BAHAHA. Kidding. No one actually. I'd like to say it's someone associated with work but I don't really want to go there so. Yeah no one :) No guy is worth my precious brain cells right now.

9. Does talking about sex make you feel uncomfortable? 
    Not really. It depends on who I'm talking to and why we're talking about it. It has to be in the right place with an open-minded person. 

10. Who was the last person you had a deep conversation with? 
      My best friend Tep of course :) Our sleep overs don't really constitute a lot of sleeping. In fact we have extended heart to hearts until the wee hours of the morning and wake up just in time for brunch. This deep conversation of course, is about our only pain in life: LOVE. 

11. What does your most recent text say? 
      My most recent text was 2 days ago before I left for SG since I don't have network connection here. It says: Papunta na ko diyan to Mommy Shei. Haha :) 

12. How do you feel about abortion? 
      I feel that it is the most cruel thing any person can do and it actually surpasses the level of murder. I don't understand how anyone can take the life of someone and that someone is inside you, with your genes and potentially a bit of everything in you. However, sometimes it almost seems inevitable for a lot of people. I wish that somehow, women are aware of the consequences tt entails for them, and for the babies as well. 

13. Do you like big crowds of people? 
      It usually depends. I like big happy crowds in parties but for everything else I like to keep myself surrounded by a small circle so  it's more intimate. I also like spending time alone when I have the chance esp. when I work in a coffee shop or when I go window shopping. I've never watched a movie alone though. Hihihi

14. Do you believe in luck and miracles? 
      Hmm. I would like to keep myself neutral about that. In as much as I would like to believe in them, I still think that a huge part of the things that happen to us is shaped by our decisions and how we react to situations. It's possible to make our own luck and our own miracles. We always get to decide what and how things should tranpire. But someone said that circumstances are 90% choice and 10% luck so I might have to leave some allowance for luck and miracle to happen. I want to get rid off my cynicism about that since my bias towards the saying 'If there's a will there's a way' is much stronger :)

15. What good thing happened this summer? 
      Good thing? I don't know about good but a lot of things definitely happened. HAHAHA. But I guess I got to travel a lot with my friends. There was a month when I spent consecutive weekends outside Manila. I spent them exploring beaches and food so it was really a good break for me. Other than that, it was work and well, I turned 22 :) PLUS stuff I'd rather not remember. 

16. Would you kiss the last person you kissed again? 
      Surely! I kissed my parents goodbye before I got dropped off at Mommy Shei's for this trip :) 

17. Do you think there is life on other planets? 
      Haha. I used to. Until recently, I grew up. HAHAHA. I think that man has enough resources to discover that. Otherwise we would still be clueless by now.

18. Do you still talk to your first crush? 
      I don't even remember who that is. Haha :) Probably not? 

19. Do you like bubble baths? 
      YES PLEASE. In fact, I just had one in our hotel last Wednesday. It relieved me of all the stress, just dipping in a warm ocean of bath suds and bubbles. I hope I could do it again before I leave so I can come home very happy and refreshed. 

20. Do you like your neighbors?
       Of course I do. I actually have a set of village friends who I grew up with. So yeah I love them to bits! I haven't seen them in a while though. 

I will continue answering the other questions next time so I can tick off more stuff in my list! I enjoyed this! Toodles! :)

Hello there :) This week officially marks THE week of all my hell weeks. Supposedly an upping scale of sorts, a milestone in my career and hopefully the paying off of all sleepless nights, long days, working weekends and just nonstop WORK. 

But before I take the plunge, I would like to procrastinate first by answering a 50-question list (which I got from Tumblr). I used to enjoy this back when surveys were still answered in Friendster and Multiply so this actually says a lot. First few questions for this post. Don't really want to let it eat up all my time. Here goes! 


1.  The last person I held hands with was... my mom I think. We went shopping for my compet clothes this evening. It was crunch time so we kind of ran around the mall looking for the perfect corporate outfit. Hahaha :) 

2. I am every bit of an extrovert as I am so yes, I'm outgoing :) I have a jologs sense of humor but I'm not afraid to make other people laugh by being myself because I know that I can make a lot of sense when I need to. 

3. I'm looking forward to seeing no one actually. I've been busy with a lot of work lately because of Demo Challenge that I can barely fit everything into an exaggeratedly impossible schedule. After this, I'm definitely taking a breather. I'd like to see my best friend, village friends and the usuals, settle down, get a few drinks and celebrate. 

4. I would like to believe that I am. I'm not really the snobbish type (though a lot of people mistake me for one). But I guess once someone breaks the ice I'm super easy to get a long with. I'm not the greatest conversationalist out there but I do make an effort to connect with a person who tries to reach out.

5. HAHAHAHA UHM. PASS? Well yes. Loads of times. I'm known for my messiahnic complex. I just never know when to give up or it takes me a little too long to realize when to drop everything and walk away. Sometimes, just when I think I finally decide to, I come running straight back. Which is sort of a trademark already. I used to believe that for as long as I can hold on to something, it spells all the difference. I can change him, I can save him. But circumstances have taught me otherwise. Sadly, yet at the same time, fortunately, I'm learning it only now :) 

Next questions on another day! Have to get back to my presentation and my red alert post-it! Toodles! ♥
