what a mess

damn...what a mess!!!

...this blog. it was like a decade since I posted my last blog... i cant think of anything to write although ive got so many things in my mind... but i dunno where to start.

i want to have a new blog design... but i dont want to just get the free template somewhere and use it... i want to create my own design.. but viola, i dunno how to do it...

...my place. when you go to my place now... i wont allow you. you can see clothes anywhere (clean and unclean). you can see dust, paper, anything... my flat was in a BIG mess... i hope my flatmate will be back.. it's not that she cleans the house often, it just that, i am forced to clean the house, because she won't clean it... weird noh?

...my work. got so many things that needs to be done... so many work that was not documented. all were in my mind... i wish i could file my braincells on the working paper so that when my manager has a question, the working paper will talk and explain all the things that was left undocumented.

...my life. i dunno what to do with my life... got no plans or whatsoever... and it is frustrating.. when i was still in school, i know that after that, i need to prepare for the board exam and look for work afterwards.. now... i have no idea... i could not think of anything... oh well, my plans before... it was like... at my age now, i should have already my own family... but how could i do that? the main ingredient is missing... ive got no bf (to be the potential spouse)... am i stuck with my current situation? i don't want to be in this situation all my life... i wanna move on.. i wanna have plans... but i could not move on...

oh well, how could i get out of this mess??? hayyy....

hopefully.. soon ...

in god's name, i trust.. amen...

Kayang kaya!!!

Malapit na akong isang maging ganap na OFW. Nakksss. Dati di ko pinangarap na magtrabaho abroad, kasi masyadong malayo ang abroad sa pangasinan,di ako makakauwi. Okay naman ako dito sa Manila eh, kaso may opportunity na dumating na magwork abroad. Di naman talaga dahil sa pera kaya ako aalis. Kaso, sayang ung magiging exposure ko dun at sayang din ung chance na makapagtravel ako and at the same time sumusweldo ako.

Nakakatuwa, nakakaexcite, nakakalungkot.

Tama talaga na pag nagdesisyon ka, parating may cons yun, kahit na sobrang okay ung desisyon mo, meron at meron ding side effect (parang double entry bookkeeping, kung may debit, laging may credit). Pero napagisipan ko naman na un, tanggap ko na dapat talaga akong magsakripisyo. Ginusto ko to, kaya dapat kayanin ko. Di naman ako forever na andun. Kaso, di ko pa rin maiwasan na mag-alala sa mga maiiwan ko dito (or siguro sila rin, di rin nila maiiwasan na mag-alala sa akin pagdating ko dun).

Pero kahit anong mangyari, isa lang ang sigurado ko. Kayang kaya ko to!!! =)

Almost there

I've got my visa yesterday. Finally a type d+c visa, multiple entries. Yay!!! I've also finished the PDOS yesterday.

And I am currently processing my documents with POEA. I went there around 6:45am, but until now, I haven't finished all the steps. I am almost finished though when they have their lunch break. Should be back around 1:30pm to pay the fees. And then after that, may e-receipt or OEC na ko!!! hehehe. Kunti na lang...

Tomorrow's my last day with SGV. I have to turnover all my files and my laptop. My boss asked me to talk to her tomorrow. I think that's for my clearance. My last day with SGV should be on Sept 28, but I already filed my VL starting Sept 13 until Sept 28.

I will also buy some Euros tomorrow (for my pocket money).

And I will also check with my travel agent if my flight with Lufthansa is already confirmed (mas mura kasi dito, USD755 lang, compared with KLM na USD955). Sana di na ako nakawaiting list. Well, kung san ako sure na airline on Friday, un na un (pero sana sa Lufthansa).

Update

Hmmm.... ano bang update ko?

12. Wait for the working visa
13. Receipt of working visa

I already got my visa last Tuesday, unfortunately, the Embassy issued a wrong visa. Instead of a Type D+C visa, I've got a Type D visa.

What's the difference between the two?

Type D visa - This is a national visa for a stay exceeding 90 days. It is only valid in Belgium, but can also be used for transit through one or more Schengen countries.

Type D + C visa - This visa entitles you to travel freely within the Schengen area during the first three months after your entry into Belgium, while you wait to receive your official residence permit.

(Definition taken from http://www.diplomatie.be/en/travel/visa/faqDetail.asp?TEXTID=40133)

My employer also told us to apply for a Type D+C visa. So, I emailed the Embassy asking for the clarification. They called the following day (while I am in POEA) and informed me to return to them my passport and visa, so they could reissue the correct visa. Hopefully, I could get it by Monday.

So, heto pa din ako.

12. Wait for the working visa
13. Receipt of working visa
14. Buy luggage and pack things - I already bought my luggage. Nakasale kasi sya nung binili ko. hehehe. Ayoko pang magempake.
15. Process documents with POEA - I am partly done with this. I am just waiting for my visa (see 12 and 13) and also the signed copy of the addendum of the contract. (May kulang daw kasi sa employment contract). Pero, I already scheduled my PDOS (predeparture orientation seminar) on Monday at 8am.
16. Buy plane ticket
17. Fly to Lux


From the time I've decided to accept the job offer, marami ng nangyari na nagtest ng pasensya ko. I don't want to wait, madaling uminit ang ulo ko pag matagal akong pinaghihintay kasi madali akong mabore. Maybe, it's because I used to have a fast paced life. Di ako sanay pag ala akong masyadong ginagawa at naghihintay lang. (Kaya nga feeling ko, nung unang nagVL ako, ang dami kong nararamdaman na sakit kasi ala akong ibang magawa kungdi magisip na baka maysakit ako. wahaha).

Ngayon, naghihintay pa din ako:

1. For the visa
2. For the documents needed for POEA
3. For confirmation of my flight - Nagpabook kasi ako kanina sa travel agency, nagpaquote ako kung how much ung flight. Ung pinakamura, nakawaiting list ako. Sana maconfirm ako dun. =)


"Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?" - God, from Evan Almighty

Live to worship

My morning alarm.





Live to worship (Point of Grace)


A simple offering is all that we bring
We give our lives, claim You as King
We are Your servants and before You we bow
With every breath we make this vow

Chorus
We will live to worship, give You praise
With all our hearts for all our days
Father we want to do what You created us to
We will live to worship You

Our every moment is a gift of Your grace
We are all Yours, now and always
More than just words, oh Lord, the cry of our hearts
Is to let our lives speak of how great You are

Chorus

You are worthy, You are holy
You alone are deserving
You are holy, You are worthy
You alone are deserving

Chorus
