Making others happy is an ultimate goal. While making others happy, there is also the feeling of inner joy, of fulfillment, when you know you have been a part of someone's happiness, when at times, you are the reason why they feel happy.
This is what I felt when a Pastora in our church told me "Tinupad mo ang pangarap naming makarating sa Makati.." Simple words but touched me deeply. It was only a simple dream, I'm thankful that I, together with my family and boyfriend, have been instruments in making this a realit...

It is just now while I'm writing this blog that I realized that yesterday was indeed our last Saturdate for 2011 (2012 is fast approaching!). The following Saturdays are bisperas for Christmas and New Year and as much as I/we would love to...

115. The Distracting Centerpiece (the Christmas so-called Party)

the distracting centerpiece
The title itself tells you how I didn't enjoy much the company Christmas party (which was held @ Sofitel). I don't blame the events planner/s or committee or whatever. It's just that, a few days before Christmas...

Second year in a row. The first time we watched the light and sound show at the Ayala Triangle Gardens, we were just really close friends. But this time around I shall tell it this way --- the BOYFRIEND and I again witnessed the Spectacular...

No matter how long it took him, he graduated!
I have this close friend whom I always pick on when it comes to ‘studies’. It’s a friendly teasing and some sort of inside joke. So we celebrated his graduation at his crib. He was the host. Gujab gujab Eo! :) It was also good catching up with my friends though we were also together last week. We ate and ate and ate and talked and spent time on the psychological tests. We went home at around 6 in the morning. I can’t remember when was the last time I stayed late with my HS friends.
So the photo...

111. Birthmonth Day 16 Good Morning
0
Since my shift changed to 15:00-24:00 – honestly, life has been pretty much eat, work and sleep. And seldom that I wake up early morning to feel the warmth (and not the heat) of the sun, to hear the friendly chirping of the birds, and smell...

It was indeed a weekend of food and music that spells F-U-N. I was with my high school friends and we spent the birthday of Chi and mine as well. We had a really stomach-filling dinner at Yakimix Mall of Asia branch.
Let the photos do the...

109. Birthmonth Day 9: The Yearly Birthday Post -- It's Superbly Special
0
There were times in my life that I wished I was never born; that I loathe even the thought of my existence. But each time, a new breed of gratitude and valuation arises. Thank You.
I started this tradition way back in 2005 (from the blog...

107. Birthmonth Day 7: In front of the laptop
0
Stayed home ALL DAY and 90% inside my room. This is how I spend a holiday away from work. After doing in-house errands, I mostly stayed in front of my laptop. That's pretty it for today I guess.
So I'm just sharing my photos of what I wore...

If there is one thing in my life that I am always thankful of -- these are my three dearest friends that form a huge part of me. We've been together for more than a decade and we know each other too well. Despite the different paths we are...

The surprise was a little fail but still, I made it! Yay!
Fail, 'cos he knows that I was just in Starbucks waiting for him but I was already in the office trying to do last minute patching of other dedications for him. And while I was doing...

I filed for a vacation leave this day until the eighth of November (having no idea that 7th will be declared holiday), because we were supposed to be somewhere to celebrate our birthdays. And though it didn't push through I did not ask to...

What comes to my mind right now is Caramoan (and Ilocos, too). But plans didn't push through. I guess it's fine as the weather is gloomy as well. It's just that I wanna be somewhere near the sea during my five days of being...

102. Birthmonth Day 2: Back to Work
0
Before I set to travel to dreamland last night, I checked my company e-mail. The next thing I know I was already thinking of filing an EL (emergency leave) the next day and the next day as I am already on leave this coming Friday. The number of unread messages in my inbox is so overwhelming which when translated into few words is only like this:
"Welcome back to work. Tasks awaiting....

I woke up with the familiar sound of the lovable kid, Otep, who is also my parents' godson. If not because of the time spent playing with this kid, chasing him around, playing ball and the ever-so-effective hide-and-seek with him and from...

What a good coincidence -- my 100th post falls on the first day of my birth month.
Anyways, while the world is celebrating Halloween, others are in cemeteries to visit their deceased loved ones, and still others are enjoying the long weekend...

no. 99 nice!

It's, I must say, a nice week -- from tweaking my blog's layie until this point that I'm writing another entry.
First, there was less workload for me as I've completed one task the previous week.
Second, I got my pay and my bonus. I'm...

no.98 after five months
1
This starts a new chapter in my life -- be it cyber or real. I guess. A point wherein I want to rise from a flat line.Life has been constant for the past months (Well, except for my special someone that makes each day distinct from the rest). Simply spelled -- WORK. Life changed when I started working where I am now. And it even changed a LOT when I was moved to a 15:00-0:00 shift. I wake up, I go to work. I work. At the end of the shift, company shuttle drops me home. And then I sleep. And then I wake up just the same to end up doing the same. For months.This... Until I longed for a "life". This is what I realized after telling my boss "gusto ko ng buhay..." I was trying to request to move...

96. first for 2011
1
Hey, it's time to update! Unannounced hiatus -- I'm good at it -- once again. Wasn't able to write since my birthday post last year. Apart from the previous years, as you can see, no bye-2010-hello-2011 post as well. Not that I'm busy, which may be partly true at times (yes, partly and at times lol), but more of 'cos I'm lazy to update. Too lazy that I can only "easy-blog" through Tumblr, and micro-blog through Twitter. There... But yo, zzup I'm back, errr or at least for this post.
First, I've finally given up THIS URL and embraced the being of my blog itself. New URL is obviously -- merieisms.blogspot.com -- Merie's musings and whereabouts, more than what you see and hear of me.
Boy,...
