Rainy days and Mondays

Today is a rainy, gloomy Monday and my mood went with the weather. It was kind of hectic at the office today even though my boss was out. Without guidance, work can be very difficult and today's share of workload was not an exception. I wished I was in a different place. Somewhere in the Philippines, Boracay maybe, but unfortunately I wasn't. Good thing there was lunch and my friend/co workers to make the day lighter. I enjoyed being with them and talking of whatever that transpired that day or yesterday. I only took 30 mins lunch but it seemed like I had enough. My bubbly friend as usual had a good and exciting story to tell and we were all laughing while enjoying our meal. After work, I went to the gym and spent 30 mins at the elliptical machine and did some crunches for my abs and a few push ups. It felt good. I sweat a lot.

The drive home was okay. The rain poured but I was relaxed driving. I then received a text message and it made the rest of the drive home somewhat good. It's nice to know that somebody is thinking about me. :-) Anyway, it was still raining when I arrived home. I felt some kind of loneliness but a call from a friend made it go away. She told me something that's going on with her life right now that made me feel happy for her. I'm glad that she found somebody to care for and perhaps in the future, to love. Another friend shared a video that made me realize that life has been good so far. It only takes a reminder to make me appreciate again what I have in life right now.

Mondays are not all bad. It may not start right but at the end of the day, it can be good. Like what happened today. Now I'm looking forward to tomorrow.

Resurrected...

I guess I'm back again. I've been away for months and thought that I would delete this blog for good but hey, here I am. So many life changing events happened in my life these past few months that made me discouraged to blog. I just turned 29 last December and it made me realize that this year I will hit the big 30. It's not bad at all. I'm not worried about it. Instead I try to look back of all those years that passed and try to assess what I have done and accomplished in my life that I can be proud of. I have gone a long way. I am, to some people, already successful. To some degree, yes I am. But like all human beings, there are still goals and dreams I want to achieve. Life is full of challenges and everyday, our endurance and toughness are being tested. Can I make it next year? Can I fulfill what I have planned to do this year? Or will there be another twist of events that will hamper me to go forward? Whatever happens, I am still alive and somewhat happy with my life. Like most people, I am trying to live the dream. Thank God always.

Have gift ideas?

Well, well... It's Valentines Day tomorrow. Don't you feel excited? There is usually a dilemna though created by this day to couples. What I mean is how to find that perfect gift to make your loved one happy. Don't have a clue yet? Don't fret. There are so many ideas on gifts you can find online. But I will give you two gift ideas that I think is going to be a hit. One of them is the iPOD if ever your special someone doesn't have it yet. Who can resist it? It's cool, entertaining and useful. What about his favorite cologne or aftershave ? I'm sure he will love it and you will love it, too. ;-) If he is into sports, why not buy something that is related to his sport. But whatever it is, I'm sure he will appreciate whatever you will give him. Isn't it the thought that counts?
