God is Good

...all the time.

These past few days were hell for me. There were things that didn't go my way and I got so frustrated and depressed. So I prayed hard to God for Him to give me this and give me that; and do this for me and do that for me; and I prayed sooo hard so that my prayers will be heard. But then nothing happened. And because I am only human, I became more depressed and frustrated. And I started to ask God why this and why that.

Then last night, I can't take it anymore so I broke down and cried. When Jay-ar saw me crying, he hugged me and asked me why... I told him that I feel so sad and unblessed. I prayed so hard for some things but my prayers were not answered. Then Jay-ar told me that I should not be sad because we are leaving for Manila next week and that we are going to spend Christmas with family and friends and that my whole family will be visiting us next month so there is nothing to be sad about. He reminded me of all the blessings we have, that we are together here in Malaysia and both of us has decent work here and that we will be having our church wedding on February and then the list goes on… He told me that I should not be so sad about those things because they are not that bad as they seem. He explained to me everything that I need to know.

While I was listening to him, I slowly came back to my senses. All he said is true. He made me realized that things are not as bad as I see them. As in OMG! It was actually like it was God who was talking to me because all the questions I had for Him were answered and explained by Jay-ar. I was too engrossed with my depression that I cannot see the light in things and I became deaf to hear God talking to me so he used Jay-ar to make me realize all that. It is true that when you feel unblessed, try to list or think of all the blessings you have in life. But that, sometimes, is easier said than done. Sometimes, we cannot do it on our own. Sometimes, we need somebody to remind us of these things.

So from being this…

I am now this...

I know that I am only human thus I am not perfect. I still know that some point of my life in the future, I will still feel depressed, sad, down and frustrated again. And I am aware that thinking of all your blessings is not that easy when you feel that you are in the lowest point of your life. But I also know that I can manage. As long as there are people like family and friends and Jay-ar who are always there for me and care for me, I will be okay.

As a matter of fact, having Jay-ar by my side is a whole lot of blessing already. And he’s only one of the many in my blessing list. I also came to realize that God’s plans for me are way, way better than my own plans for myself. I just need to hold on to my faith.

Thank you Lord for my family, relatives, friends, Jay-ar and all your blessings you showered me with. And oh, I am sooo sorry for being a stubborn child.

And now, I am back to the feeling of being sooo thrilled about coming home for Christmas... Weeeeh! God is indeed good... all the time!

Tiara Beach Resort

As promised [yak! feeling.. as if may nag hihintay...heehee], here are our photos taken during our Tiara Beach Resort trip. Anyway, I will not tell stories about our trip anymore. I'll just put caption on the pictures. Mejo inaantok na kasi ako kaya wala na ko sa mood mag wento. Hehe! Ang totoo nyan, wala naman tlagang wento. Kaya tignan nyo na lang ang mga pictures and they will be the one to tell the story. After all, photos speak louder than words... errr at least for this post.

This is Jay-ar bow. Hehehe! He joined one of the games called "Rafting". The mechanics of the game is simple. The team will make a raft using 3 logs, 3 ropes and 3 big floaties. Tapos the raft should carry 10 people to the other side of the pool. I think simplier described than done. Hehehe!

Okay, tapos na ang raft. Ngayun, kailangan nilang ipagsiksikan ang mga sarili nila sa ibabaw nun. Haaay! Kagulo tlaga. Hehehe! Syempre yung raft gawa ng mga amateurs so nde yun masyadong stable and balanced. So there. Hehehe!

Yaaahhhooo! They made it. Ayan kita nyo naman, nasa gitna na sila ng pool and pilit na inaabot ang kabilang dako. Hehehe! At yung isa jan, nakuha pang mag smile sa camera... Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Huy, mag paddle ka! Hehehe!

Mabuhay! Tapos na... Other side na yan ng pool and mind you, this team was the winner in this game! Galing noh! Yan ang nagagawa ng teamwork with occasional na pag papa-cute!

Since tapos na ang game, we need to relax naman. Haaay! This is life!

Ang title ng movie na to is: Basa sa Waterfalls. Hay, ang corny ko talaga! Hehehe!

The beautiful scenery of Tiara Beach Resort.

Pauwi na kami nito. Dumaan kami sa stadium sa may Bukit Jalil. Jan daw ginagawa ang mga concerts sa Malaysia. Malaki tlaga yung stadium. Nde lang masyadong kita sa pic pero malaki yung place. Nde nga lang kami nakapasok kasi bawal. Hehehe!

At iba pa na pics.

Eto pa yung isang game na sinalihan ni Jay-ar. Relay yan sa pool habang may hawak na tray tapos nakapatong yung plastic cup na may water [ala waiter ang dating] at meron pang bola na nakaipit sa gitna ng legs ni Jay-ar nyan. Yung totoong bola... hehehe! *wink* *wink*

Anyway, for more pictures... as always, just click HERE.

Yawn! Antok na tlaga ko. Until next post. Magandang umaga world! Tulog muna ko. Bye for now...
---Mitsikoy signing off... ZZZzzzz...

Pictures Pictures Pictures pa DITO.

Everything Happens for a Reason :]

Dear Wife:

I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good.
I've been a good man to you for seven years, and I have nothing to show for it.
These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you had quit your job today, and that was the last straw.

Last week, you came home and didn't even notice that I had gotten a new hair cut, cooked your favorite meal, and even wore a brand new pair of silk boxers.

You came home and ate in two minutes, then went straight to sleep after watching all your soaps. You don't tell me you love me anymore, you don't want to have sex anymore or anything. Either you're cheating on me or you don't love me anymore.

Whatever the case is, I am gone.

--Your EX - Husband

P.S. Don't try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving away to West Virginia together!
Have a great life!

~*~*~*~*~*~

Dear Ex-Husband:

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It is true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good man is a far cry from what you've been.

I watch my soaps so much because they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad that doesn't work.
I did notice when you got a hair cut last week. The first thing that came to mind was, "You look just like a girl!" but my mother raised me not to say anything, if you can't say anything nice. And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating steak seven years ago.

I turned away from you when you had those silk boxers on because the price tag was still on them. I prayed that it was just a coincidence that my sister had just borrowed five hundred pesos from me that morning and your new silk boxers were P 500.00.

After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when I discovered that I had hit the lottery for Sixty Million Pesos, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Aman Pulo somewhere in Palawan. But when I got home you were gone.
Everything happens for a reason, I guess.

I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said that with your letter you wrote, you won't get a dime from me.
So take care.

Signed,
--Rich and Free!

P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carla, my sister, was born CARL. I hope that's not a problem.

Change is good.

Samu't Saring Kwento :]

Kahapon 4:30 pm nasa bahay na ko. Panu ba naman tong TL ko, nananahimik ako kahapon bigla sakin sasabihin na isasama nya daw ako sa isang site [hotel - http://www.marriottputrajaya.com/] para mag upgrade ng system namin dun. Yung hotel na yun, meron na nung system namin pero older version yata ang gamit nila kaya mag install kami ng current version. Anyway, ayaw ko sumama noh! Unang una, nde naman tlaga ako tech support para mag install. Developer po ako. Uupo lang ako sa desk ko at mag program. Yun lang dapat ginagawa ko. Tapos kapag mag install, kailangan marami ka alam sa networking since na ang systema nga namin ay internet gateway. Kasi nde mo lang naman install yung system sa server. Kailangan mo pa i-setup yung network. Dapat marunong ka sa LAN, VLAN, router, switches, Linux configuration, etc etc. As in hello lang?! Ayaw na ayaw ko kaya ang networking at tingin ko never ko tlaga syang magugustuhan. Hehehe! So nung sinabi sakin ng TL ko na isasama nya daw ako para matuto ako kung anu ginagawa nya sa hotel [sya kasi lagi nag install kasi yung mga walang silbi namin na tech support ayaw mag install ng system namin kasi nde daw sila marunong mag linux - e hello lang, aralin kaya nila. yun kaya trabaho nila - ang mag install], nakita ng TL ko na tlaga naman super simangot ako. Hahaha! Napaka expressive ko tlaga. Nde ko man lang kayang itago nararamdaman ko. So nung nakita nya yun, sabi nya pag katapos daw namin mag install sa hotel, nde na daw kailangan bumalik ng office. Pwede na daw akong uwi. Hmmm... parang gs2 ko yun ha. So ayun, sumama na din ako. Hehehe! Umalis kami ng office ng 11:30 tapos wala pa kami isang oras sa hotel!!! Install nya lang yung current version ng program sa server, test kung gagana, nung gumana sabi nya pwede na daw kami umuwi. Huwwaaat? As in like wala talaga akong natutunan! Yun na yun?! Sabi nya babalik na lang daw sya maya maya para i-setup yung network. Wala din kasi yung tech person from hotel na dapat katulong nya sa pag setup ng network. So ganun din, nde ko din alam kung panu. Hehehe! Pero oks lang yun kasi ayaw ko tlaga mag install. Hehehe!

Tapos bago kami umuwi, kumain muna kami ng Satay sa Kajang [Satay is parang chicken BBQ na sinasawsaw sa gravy tapos served with rice cube. Something like that. Hehehe!]. Sa Kajang kasi sya nakatira, malapit dun sa hotel na pinag installan namin. Sabi nya kilala daw ang Kajang sa Satay nila kaya kailangan ma-try ko. Oks lang libre nya naman e... Hehehe! Tapos nun hinatid nya na ko sa LRT tapos uwi na ko. 4:30 nasa bahay na ko! Weeeeh!!!

Pagka uwi sa bahay, nag luto lang ako ng pininyahang manok [pineapple chicken] pangbaon tapos nag meet kami ni Jay-ar sa Midvalley Megamall [may megamall din dito] to eat dinner [nag-take out ako ng mga maki sa Sushi King] pero sa C-Jade Express kami kumain ng dinner. After dinner, nag pa foot spa ako sa Dr. Soho Foot Treatment. Grabe, kakaibang foot spa to. Talagang tatanggalin kalyo mo sa paa kahit na ganu kalaki at kalala pa yang kalyo mo. Hehehe! Ang mahal nga - RM35 [Ps455]. Pero astig kasi lahat ng kalyo sa paa tanggal. Hehehe! Wala akong pictures e... Pero may nakita akong blog entry [with pictures] regarding dun DITO. Meron akong maliit na kalyo pa paa na ngayun wala na. Hehehe! Feeling ko nga lugi ako kasi ang liit lang ng kalyo ko tapos RM35 din ang binayad ko. Yung iba nga ang lala na ng case e... RM35 din sila... Oh well.. Hehehe!

Kajang Satay. Masarap Sya! Pramis!

Ibang Kwento Naman.

May utang pa pala kong pictures ang post regarding sa aming Tiara Beach Resort escapades. Will post pics kapag nagka time ako. Hehehe! Ngayun, wala kasi TL ko [naka-leave or half day yata] kaya nakaka nakaw ako ng time to post. Hehehe!

Eto pa Kwento.

Approve na pala ang leave ko para sa kasal namin. Jan 19-Feb 10 ako sa pinas pero Jan 16 naka leave na ko kasi pupunta dito sila mama ng Jan 11 tapos sabay sabay na kami babalik ng pinas ng Jan 19. Weeeh! Excited na tlaga ako. Pero nde pa ko nakakapag paalam sa Christmas leave ko. Balak ko magpaalam this week. 4 days leave lang naman yun. So tingin ko naman papayagan ako. Sa pinas kami ni Jay-ar ng Dec 19-26. Sa konting panahon na yan, kailangan namin ayusin ang mga sumusunod:

1. Kumpil ko [yeah, nde pa ko nakukumpilan at required yun sa church wedding]
2. Papasukat ako ng gown ko [nde pa ko nasusukatan]
3. First meeting with coordinator
4. Visit reception venue [nde pa kasi nakikita ni jay-ar]
5. Book kami ng hotel [para pa din sa wedding]
6. Food tasting [nde pa nakakapag food tasting si Jay-ar]
7. Pre-nup pictorial namin
8. Attend wedding seminar
9. Finalize design & printing for invitation
10. Meet with souvinir supplier
11. Meet with the wedding band [nde ko pa sila nameet in person]
12. Papalinis ng ipin [mas mura palinis ng ipin sa pinas. hehehe]
13. Kumain sa Amber [miss ko na!] at sa iba pang kainan sa pinas! [waaah! kasal ko! dapat nde ako mataba! ]
14. Ayusin ang aming finances
15. Meet with and bond with family and friends

Hmmm.. kaya kaya yan ng Dec19-26? E tapos pasko pa so yung iba busy-busyhan pa nyan. Haaay! Sana marami kami ma-accomplish pag uwi namin this December. So many things to do, so little time. Waaaah!!! God help us.

So anu pa ba? Hmmm... Yun lang muna ulit for now. Basta post ko na lang yung pics namin from Tiara Beach soon okai?!

Oki lah... Bye bye for now! Mwah!

Ps. PASKO NA!!! Weeehhh... Lamig daw sa Pinas. Excited na ko!!! I LOVE CHRISTMAS!
