been very busy lately

i know, i know... it's been a week since i last blogged!!! should i put it this way, ahh... well.... been very busy lately and i have been very so, so, pre-occupied with a lot of things...

with regards to our trip in bohol, i made some changes... drastic changes to stay on the budget, to say the least... why drastic? well, it's not as bad as the word implies but here's what happened...

it took me such a hard time determining p's arrival. it was just last week, i guess, when he finally confirmed that he'll be arriving here on the 6th of may.

since, bohol's becoming the most sought summer get-away these days, unfortunately, i can't find any cheap airfare... so i decided to just take the cebu flight and travel via supercat for 2 hours to tagbilaran pier... it's not that bad considering that i got 2 plane tickets to cebu for almost 3,000... for 2 persons, we'll be charged 800 for the ferry... from mactan airport, the cab would only cost us almost a hundred and fifty... summing it all up,it will only cost us almost 4,000 versus the airfare from manila to tagbilaran for 2 persons which would cost us almost 8K... instantly, that's almost fifty percent savings...(mind you, if you want to travel on peak season, might as well book your flights ahead of time to minimize cost...)

well, planning is such a headache since i have so little time doing it considering that i have tons of work to do... i'm not complaining but as much as possible, i want everything to go on smoothly... i want a stress free vacation and i need a break!!!

p & i are in a huge fight right now but i have no way of cancelling all my previous commitments.... i have had arrangements already with the hotel in tagaytay and hotel in tagbilaran so there's nothing much left to do but to be patient...

besides, before he even thinks of cancelling it, i have already made payments and there's no turning back, needless to say...

by the way, i got a 200 peso discount a night from the hotel in tagaytay where we'll be staying before we head off to cebu-bohol.... not bad...

okay, okay.... this is going to be a long post and surely, i need to be able to deliver what is expected of me so i'm back to work...

kudos!

cause and effect

It's not a secret, I came from a broken home. My dad left us when I was 9 and he met his other woman while he was just working abroad. It started out as a not-so-serious kind of thing until he got the girl pregnant. It was my mom who helped my dad to land a job in EEI and when they parted ways and sold some of their conjugal properties (including the almost-done house in Lipa , Batangas ), my dad was never able to step foot again in K.S.A. It was a trying time for me. I never had a dad who would be there to support me not just financially but emotionally, too. I salute my mom for making ends meet just to give me a brighter future. I took up a course in I.T. at that time but I landed a job in admin. Since then, I have always been the bread winner. If my dad didn't leave us, I might have taken up law. I might have pursued my dream. But everything happened for a reason and I know God has his ways. Growing up was never easy. I got used to the fact that my mom pampered me so much. ...
