New Blog Site!

Hello Friends,

You can access my new site in this link: https://iamjessiegarcia8.wixsite.com/happyfeet

I'm thankful to Blogspot for letting me create a space in their platform.

See y'all...

The Sunday Currently vol. 1

It has been 2 years since I posted something here in my blog. I got very busy and occupied sa maraming bagay. I happen to see a sample of The Sunday Currently post and I thought that I could start blogging again with my own version of it. Enjoy!

CURRENTLY

Reading

Office emails (loser!!!) hahaha... Well unfortunately, while everyone is enjoying their Sunday with their family and friends, here I am sitting in front of my laptop and managing the queue... The entire Operations. Since galing ako sa RD (Fri-Sat) tambak ang binabasa kong emails. Hayst...

Writing

The Sunday Currently vol. 1

Listening

Sound of keyboards and voices of the AM shift agents here in the office. Di ako makapag-sounds :(

Thinking

Of what to eat for breakfast. I woke up at 03:15 and up to this point (06:48) I haven't eaten anything. Well I'm trying to avoid any fast food at the moment. Kailangan kong magbawas ng timbang. Promise!

Smelling

The smell of my Intellicare Spritz (The Green Warrior) Hand Sanitizer. Got this as a freebie when I attendes CCAP Meeting last month. Ang fresh lang ng amoy nya. Hihihi...

Wishing

For things to get better... As in BETTER. For my work and my personal matters. 

Hoping

For a fun and productive week ahead!

Wearing

Oversize checkered blue polo, jeans and green Converse shoes

Loving

Though I'm here in the office, I love the idea of working on this day. Less stress for me. Yahoo!

Wanting

HAPPINESS! Ito lang naman ang gusto ko sa buhay... Ang maging masaya. YUN LANG okay na.

Needing

MORE SLEEP! I'm always deprived of sleep. It all started when Arvin died. Since then, I wanted to stay in the office until 9PM though my shift ends at 3PM just to have a company. To lessen the sadness that I feel. Basta gusto ko pa ng mas maraming time para MATULOG.

Feeling

Sa totoo lang di ko alam. I manage to put a smile on my face but deep down inside me I feel empty. Alam kong may kulang pero kung ano yun hindi ko alam. Hopefully this won't last that long. 

Well hopefully everyone gets their dose of happy moments and a productive week. Ciao!

What to Wear

I'm supposed to be sleeping at this moment since I need to wake up later at 1PM for a Weekly Ops Meeting at 4PM. However, I cannot sleep because I was pre-occupied by the thought of what to wear on my friend's wedding next month.  

She chose me as one of the Secondary Sponsors on her wedding day. Motif is Olive green (hopefully it would fit my skin tone @_@). I was browsing a wedding site earlier and found these: (my top 3 choices but I think I would really go for the first pic. LOL)

To my blogger friends, just want to get your opinions. Which one would you think will suits me? Any suggestion is highly appreciated. 

Read Read and Read

I grew up watching TV most of the time reason why I learn fast in visuals. The only books that I got before were textbooks provided by our school. If not the textbooks, I got the books of Bob Ong. I rarely appreciate an english book. Other than that I don't have anything to read before. 

I never saw myself spending much of my time just reading. I used to get bored doing it. Now things have changed. I have read a couple of book series that I never thought I would be able to finish. Hahaha...

It started of with "Fifthy Shades of Grey". Reading the first 7 chapters of the book was fine but when I got into the 8th chapter, I stopped reading the book. This is not because I'm being "manang" but it was the description of some scenes that I was not able to digest at first. A lot of my friends encouraged me read it again. They advised me not to look at the acts itself but the characters and stories behind the act. That made me finish the book up to the last installment.

After the popular Christian Grey, another book series got me hooked again. It was the "Hush Hush" book series. I also fell in love with Patch's character as a fallen angel. I got hooked because of the twist and turns of his love story with Nora Grey who happened to be a human. 

Now I'm reading the first book of the "Mortal Instruments" which is the "City of Bones". These are my next in line:

Though most of the things that I read are fictional I can still say that this is already a big improvement on my part. At least now I can read and finish a whole story unlike before. Hihihi...

I'm Coming Back Soon...

Oh my G! My blog has been idle for 6 months. Was kinda busy with a lot of things these past couple of months. In the next coming days, The Happy Feet will be back for business... Miss bloggin' 

The Last

                “How many have you loved?” – We might wonder the answer that we will get with this kind of question. Wong Fu Production made a short film about this question – to speak to the younger and older viewers. This was also made especially to those people who finally found THE ONE.

                Watch this heart-wrenching short film. You might also get the answers to these questions - Who did you love? What did you love? When? Where? Why?

                  It feels great to gone through a journey that is full of emotional pain, heartache and to appreciate the one that you are with is the person that personifies all that you needed and looked for in the past.

Reunited

I got so excited when my friend Apple informed me of the plan – to set our monthly dates. It’s been a while since I last talk and see them that’s why when I heard of the plan, I immediately sent them my schedule so we can figure out which will be the best date to meet. 

We set our date last January 13 in Trinoma. We don’t really have a reservation or a specific activity on that day. It just turned out to be a spontaneous lunch date with my beloved friends.

Since we cannot find any place which is affordable and can easily serve the food (we are so famished that time!), we decided to dine in at Tempura.

Karen, Me, Apple and Peace

 (Ang gaganda lang ng mga ngiti pero gutom na kami nyan. HAHAHA!). After our tempura food trip, we decided to continue our never ending story in Mary Grace. Each of us ordered a slice of cake. 

It's really nice to be surrounded by good friends. Though we seldom see each other, it didn't really make us feel that we haven't seen each other for a very long time. The warmth and care are still the same. I am just so lucky to find my precious gifts. 

9 years of friendship and still counting :)

Epic Wedding Speech

I just watched a video in YouTube this morning. This video put me into tears while watching it. I would like to share this to you guys especially to those who are about to say their “I do”. 

It’s been a year…

Same day last year, I was weary and lost. I never thought that I will be able to survive that very moment. I thought I’ll be losing my sanity. I was completely heartbroken. I didn't know that from that day on, I’ll be totally free from all the pain.  I didn't know that it will be a promise of a new life. INDEED, everything happens for a reason. It’s clearer to me now why it happened and for what reason.

Now looking back to that day, I’m quite glad that I've gone through that kind of pain. It showed me that I can do more than I can think of… that I’m stronger than ever. I was delighted from the fact that I did not end up with him. (Oh THANK GOD!)

I’m declaring this day as my “Freedom Day”. My freedom from all the empty promises he made. Freedom from all the pain that he caused me…. I surrender and finally letting go for I know I have my God as my healer and my strength. 

But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

Isaiah 40:31
