Wonderwall



i slept really late last night (this morning). had coffee with Huey and ended up chatting until 12mn. when i got home, i was dead-sleepy but i can't help but put up the picture frames that i bought in ikea a couple of weeks ago. i had 6 random pictures printed and put it in the frames. plan to, once in a while, change the pictures to have some variety. i'm just not sold on how i arranged the frames in my wall. too lazy to measure and stuff. any suggestions?







Colored Vs. Whites

i do my laundry twice a week, every sunday and wednesday or thursday. last weekend was an eye-opener for me. it made me realize that i, too, is only human. human in a sense that i also make mistakes. hahaha. i made a catastrophic mistake last sunday while doing my laundry.....
before:

after:


pink na sya.

lesson learned: do not mix whites with the colored ones

9 Essential Career Questions


taken from the current issue of Men's Health Ph, i have here some questions that will help us in keeping track of our career growth or lack of one hahaha.


1. What do you want to be doing when you grow up? (or when you grow old...er)


2. What are your actual strengths and weaknesses? (being realistic with this one helps in assessing where you're good at and where you need some improving)


3. Are you in the right place for achieving your dream?


4. What's your time frame? (this is very important so you can track your progress)


5. What obstacles stand in your way? (identify and work around it)


6. What should you be doing right this minute that you're not? (start building on the things that will help you reach your goal)


7. What are you doing right this minute that you shouldn't be doing? (prioritize)


8. Are you happy? (only you can answer this question. some things you thought you want may not make you happy at all)


9. How are you doing so far? (so you think you're still a long way from meeting your goals? look back, and compare your current status from before. you're not doing so bad.)

Top Ten Religious Moments

in response to chico garcia's the best and the rest 33, here is my entry:

we were cruising along commonwealth ave. when, in front of the big I.N.C. church, the nanny of my cousin did a sign of the cross. we burst out laughing. when she realized, she said: "oo nga pala, sa muslim pala yan!" hahaha. that was one of the funniest moments.

Calligraphy

when we went to hangzhou last month, huey and i went to this store that does calligrpahy. we had our names done.
it reads my chinese name: Ke (a chinese surname) Xiao (little or small) Tian (sky) and the poetry behind it (i think). i'll have it translated and will post the meaning soon.
