Birthday!

Today is my birthday. Yes!, I was born February 6, 1986. It means that I am 27 years old. But one thing I know, life is great at any age. I must admit that I feel what other people also feel when birthdays come in, the 'birthday anxiety attack'. I never felt this before because I always celebrate it with my friends and family and always busy preparing for party. But this year, I chose to celebrate it by preparing an intimate dinner with my family. Probably because I am jobless at this moment so I don't want to spend a lot even my parents insisted me to invite my friends. This is also good opportunity for me to just be with them and feel their presence on my birthday. After all, I was born because of them and I love them so much.  Another reason is a lot of things happened last year that I felt like I have nothing to celebrate about. So I am looking for another year of blessings and miracles so that I can celebrate it next year. Being single sucks!. I didn't receive special gift from special someone, there's no surprise and the experience is unusual for me.  I feel that no one cares for me but I realized how many my friends are to just message me and remember my birthday and through Facebook, they greeted me on my timeline. Also, being jobless makes me think of being a less of a person, but at the back of my mind, I should not tolerate such thinking because it will only lessen my confidence and can harm me to death. I'm halfway on my masters degree and I believe that there are lot of opportunities coming my way and by faith I know that I will be successful at the right time. Still, I am grateful because I am still alive and God continues to bless me each day. Happy Birthday to me!

FINAL SPEECH IN APC

This speech serves as my expression of deepest gratitude to Asia Pacific. Hindi ko na iisa-isahin lahat ng mga karanasan ko dito. Pero sa maikling panahon na naging bahagi ako ng Asia Pacific Family, ay maraming marami akong natutunan. Ang makisama at makibagay sa iba’t ibang klase ng tao; and pagdiscover ng iba’t ibang pagkatao ng lahat so that I can try to please everyone para makuha ko ang kanilang interes at atensyon sa klase. Yung opportunity na makatulong by giving pieces of advice, na kahit hindi na sakop ng aking trabaho, ginagawa ko kasi ang turing ko sa inyo ay pamilya. On my part, marami din akong natututunan sa mga part ng buhay nyo na ibinahagi nyo sa akin and this is because I have been a part of this humble training center. Mahirap para sa akin na umalis kaya nga nagsasalita pa ako at nagpapaalam (parang Miss Universe). Pero isa itong desisyon sa buhay ko na kailangan kong gawin para mag-grow. Working here at Asia Pacific has been a very big blessing f...
