*Flood in Manila

I’m flooded in!!! The thing is, it only rained for an hour and viola! We have an almost-waist-high flood just outside the gate. Fortunately, the water that got in the gate is just above the ankles… But who would want a stinky, disease-bringing, waste polluted, pest infested flood come your way? These photos were taken just a few minutes before I posted this entry.

Backyard
This is our backyard… It could be mistaken for the amazon river or something closely related to a river…

Gate
This is the gurgling gate… It’s gurgling up trash, Not a pretty sight really… Not a pretty smell either.

Where You Going Little Missy?

errr… little missy?

I’m not going anywhere but who in hell will call me “little missy”? I’m nowhere close to being little. Just coz I have a cartoon for a header, you can call me little missy? Pffft.. next time someone calls me little missy, I’ll show them my current picture and we’ll see who’s “little” :lol: Oh if you’re wondering what in hell I’m talking about, I just deleted the comment in my shoutbox… I think he had attempts to build his links while insulting me… sheeez

Somebody Shoot Me Now!!!

:lol: I just felt like saying that….
Yeah, I’m a bit stressed with work… Blogging about it helps a bit. So what’s the drama? Let me count it out for you…

  1. The manual I’m writing is due today. Although it’ll still be just the draft, it needs as much information as I could stuff into it. The work was divided but the divided work is still tedious to work on…
  2. The letter proposal assigned for me to write needs additional crap…
  3. The articles I have to review is getting piled up… Oh the horror, I’m sinking into a lot of paper work!

I’m Two Months Old

Fiona has learned to slap someone with her small hands whenever she’s annoyed or ignored. She smiles, giggles, gurgles and coos. She keeps looking for me when I’m not beside her, at least that’s what my mom told me. Ain’t that sweet?

I have pictures of her smiling on my phone, but I’d need a connector or IRDA or Bluetooth to transfer them to the computer… For the mean time this is my puny attempt to catch her smile on digital camera..

Mommy I'm Two Months Old!

Mommy, I’m Two Months Old!

The Amazing Argh!!!!

Argh! I am retyping this post! Already finished writing, clicked publish and a db error occured *poof* everything was deleted

Argh! I wish I brought headphones to work! It’s so damn quiet without any speakers

Argh! I miss my baby too much! I wish she’s ok, sleeping soundly, being pampered at home, …. :cry: I MISS HER!!!!

Argh! I wish this day would end already! I wish I was home already!

Argh! My phone ran out of battery!

Argh! Where did all my email and files go?

Argh! Too many new faces here in the office

About to Fray

It’s 2 am already and I have been crying for the past two hours.. I’ve had enough of this crap we call life. I no longer know where it is heading and I don’t know if I’m strong enough to go on.

Well I’m not feeling myself today
Just a figure in a big monopoly game
Struggle is the price you pay
You get just enough just to give it away
I’m sinking more than floating away
Just throw me a line so I can ache in my pain
The fabric is about to fray…

Family Affair

I know jealousy can be a deadly poison in a relationship, but I have grown a jealousy that might not go away that easily. I’m jealous with the freedom my boyfriend is getting. Since we are living separately now, (long story, don’t want to go there) he’s been going out with friends whenever he gets a chance, with work and his financial issues he rarely sees us. I, on the other hand, obviously has little Fiona to take care of. I’m not regretful of having a baby too early in my life and I’m not asking for financial support from him, but I just wish he’s aware that I feel neglected.

The Da Vinci Code Banned?

Da Vinci Code PosterThe movie authorities here are planning to ban the showing of the movie, The Da Vinci Code. Damn I hope they won’t ban it, I’ve been waiting for the movie since I saw the teaser last year. I have already read the book a long time ago and it is a very well written novel that I think will be cool to see on the big screen. The prequel is so more adventure-filled but the Da Vinci Code theme is definitely a mind opener.

Make Way For My Princess!

I’m back! And I’m not alone… After 9 months of waiting, 10 hours of labor, 2 shots of pain killers, and 8 stitches… I’d like you all to meet my beautiful little darling — Ashley Fiona

Fiona is Here!

I was having continuous fits of stomach aches last March 8 and all throughout the afternoon and evening, it was becoming worse and worse. The doctor knew tonight was the night. It was a scary and painful experience. She was born last March 9, 2006 1:15 AM (that’s +8H from GMT) weighing 3.3 kg. and when I heard her cry, the pain, the agony and exhaustion was all worth it. It felt great to hear her for the first time, to look at her for the first time and to finally hold her in my arms after having her in my tummy for a long time.

Hybernating…

I will be hybernating until further notice. I have not yet scanned the ultra sound results and will not be able to do so because I’ll be staying in the maternity clinic for the next few days… I will not be able to read any emails, private messages, or anything like that for a few days or even weeks (depending on my condition and the baby’s condition as well).

For the mean time, take care everyone! I shall come back as soon as I could. Peace!
