What have happened to my very persistent spirit when it comes to doing things which I think I need to do no matter how daunting the task may be? Alas! It died a natural death.
Things happen in its own time. When we were much younger, we are so restless over something which we want to happen right away so much that we lost sleep over that something. It's as if time can't really wait for us. In our haste to get things done, things in its unripe state were forced to turned ripe, which more often than not, would be better off should we have given it more time.
But to give it justice, I never cried over a lost love, I cried over a lost friendship.

I've been speding a few minutes preparing a saline solution (salt diluted in lukewarm water) for me to gargle before going to bed since last week. This is to provide temporary relief to my sore throat. I came to know that through the process of osmosis, the salt draws out the edema fluid, killing the bacteria, which requires a warm, wet environment.
This morning, I've been taking lozenges such as strepsils which is from my sister's loot. I've ran out of anitbiotics since it was last year that I had this kind of ailment. Although this time, it had a less impact since my immune system has been prepared to combat such virus.
Last night, I rode the bus with Tate and my coughing seems to get worse. I was trying to control it but then I have a problem breathing properly which reminded me of my brother many years ago when he got an asthma attack. When Mel boarded of, an elderly man occupied the seat she left and I could tell he's giving me sympathetic looks at such a sight I was making. A few minutes after, he left his seat and transferred to another. I understand that although he's genuinely concerned he has too look after his health. Cough and cold are highly contagious. Moreso, when you're confined in an enclosed space. Just bought anitibiotics and some Strepsils at Mercury Drug. I didn't know you could use Citibank-Mercury Drug visa credit card on their grocery store even if your purchases are below 100. Neat.
Tomorrow, I hope I wont be waking up nursing a still sore, raw and painful throat.

My head's feeling a little too heavy today. It seems that I'm on a pre-fever stage. I broke into fits of coughing every now and then. I just hope I could take a leave tomorrow. Watched Final Destination 3 at the SM F cinema with my sibs yesterday. Before that grabbed something form lunch at Chef D Angelo. Imagine having sequels to a movie titled Final Destination. The movie scenes keep you glued to the screen expecting how these people would die one after the other. Expect blood and gore. To say that this film is not for the faint hearted is a bit exaggerated though.
Last Wednesday, March 1st which coincides with Ash Wednesday and also my papa's birthday, it was my first time to experience an earthquake awake. It was around 7pm and I'm working in the office. I don't know if I called Mitz or vice versa but she was the person I'm taking with through this ordeal. Quite scary as we are on a high-rise building.I need to take Cefalexin before my condition worsens. I'll be rendering overtime later as we have teleconference walkthroughs on test cases later. Lets get this over with. Ha, you wish!

I'm no longer connected with Thomson Phils. Corp. That is what I've been disseminating to credit card agents who keep on calling my number to inform me that I've been qualified to avail of this credit card blah blah blah or this loan blah blah blah. Its actually doing me good as calls are becoming less frequent. Just a final word, don't refer me to these agents, ok and I would return the favor by doing the same. Here's to less spam callers or whatever you may put it.

{*In a NUTSCHELLE*}
Just turned 23. Not that young anymore and not too old either. One of the few reasons why she had a good excuse to mess up her life and still get away with it.
She is a self-confessed blog addict. The blog design reflects the total opposite of her personality. She is innocence personified - prim and proper, goody-two-shoes but could turn your life into a nightmare at the least provocation. Nothing is too complicated that her not-so-average mind could comprehend.
{*Profile*}
I took delight in trivial things. I could cry bucket of tears over light drama flicks while feel-good movies make me feel fuzzy all over. Despite the sheer crappiness of horror stories, I still hate those gory and morbid scenes that will leave anyone with that sick to the gut feeling. I love the sound of the waves crashing into the shore and the heavy downpours on lazy afternoons. Although i'm almost always caught with a bunch of people, I savor moments in solitude--staring into blank spaces, totally leaving the worldly troubles behind and just lingering in silence. I'm a self-confessed bargain hunter. New finds never fail to fascinate me--it make my melatonin levels shoot sky-high.
{*Career*}
Corporate girl who commutes from three to five hours on daily basis; started being a corporate slave a few weeks before graduation;
she's been working for two years; just a few months shy of getting that much-coveted MBA degree from an international academe.
She wants to carve a niche in her pursuit for world domination (as if she's bent on it!). Future career plans include being a
financial journalist or lifestyle writer; preschool teacher, etc.
{*Capricorn woman *}
The Capricorn woman has a strong ability to understand human nature the way no one else does.
She has the ability to analyze and understand any concept well and possess a good memory.
It is not easy to deceive her. She has a very business savvy nature.
Conservative by nature, prudent and economical - a Capricorn women can amass a lot of wealth in her life.
However it is also not uncommon for Capri woman to indulge in sporadic spending spree - leading to temporary financial hassles.
