Use Blackle instead of Google =)

To save energy even when you're searching, try blackle.com. Is it a coincidence that my blog is colored all black? Well, eversince I was a kid, I love the color black because of its simplicity & elegance. So when I learned about Blackle, I decided to spread the news asap.

Savoring the Saccharinity of a Special Message

Having a friend whom u consider a sister is a rarity in this day and age. How we both managed to keep in touch despite the distance and lack of communication years before (we still don't have our own telephone sets and cellphones at that time) is pretty astonishing. We've been friends eversince we started schooling up to this present.

When all my other friends have gone and some even neglected me, Joy (her nick) stood by me through it all. I am not that sentimental but I will be because of her. =)
Here's the sweet message Jolanie (my oldest best pal) sent me after I gave her a card stating God's promises.

Jolanie said:

Thanks for the gift. You always lift me up in your own special ways and you cast away the bad feelings I have. You've known what's inside me, understand me even before I open my lips and hear me before I speak.

I'm struggling to see God's plan because of you. I fight to live because you're one of the reasons. I'm hurting inside but I'm healing knowing that I have to because I have you. I love you beyond the million meanings behind those three words.

What to do with a Bad Day

6th of August.

I don't want to enumerate the bad things but it all happened and there's nothing I can do to prevent it from happening. It was like serendipity capsuled in a bad concept. But there's no use crying over spilled milk.

Here's the recap:

1) The typhoon. I am late for work again. At least, better late than be absent.
2) My period. I got my period & I had dysmennorhea and to top it all off, there's a long queue in the restroom.
3) I stood for 2 hours traveling on my way to the office, kinda wet from the rain & suffering from dysmenno.
4) Umbrella. My umbrella's gone. Ruined. Destroyed... Haha, soo much for the terms.
5) Payment. Because I am very late, what more can I expect?
6) And a lot more things happened... Better left unsaid. =D

Well, I dunno why I remained so calm. After all, I'm still very lucky. Am I really? I think so.

Yeah, I'm used to these things. It's just that it all happened simultaneously.

These are just simple mundane things compared to all the harshness of the world experienced by other people. Come to think of it.

I just think that I am blessed. Aren't we all?
