Blessed are those who do not seem to have a life, and especially those who do not have a choice—those who are physically debilitated, paralyzed or in a coma and cannot move, for they bring us a message that is lost in this age of frenzy—that to be worthy of God's love, we need not strive to do or achieve anything, but simply be.
Got this from Rowie, who got it from Jim Paredes.

Attended a Christmas party at Teak Bar & Bistro at Rockwell last night. Nothing unique or special about the place, so I don't know how it's going to last. Anyway, dranks lots of Tequila Rose. Everything was okay until the boss insisted that we drink something else. So Mira and I had a Cosmopolitan each. And the night was ruined. Got drunk right there. I still don't feel well until now.

Wow, haven't done this for the longest time!
This week's Friday Five:
1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays?
Well no snow here. As for the cold weather, I enjoy it very much because this is the only time of the year when it's not hot!
2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?
Anywhere is fine, as long as I'm with loved ones. A simple meal would be perfect.
3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?
We go home to our hometown, Binan Laguna, every December 25 for a clan party. All the lolos, lolas, titos, titos, and of course the ninongs and ninangs are there. Kids really line up for their gifts.
4. Do you do anything to help the needy?
I used to be a regular volunteer before but since I've been busy, I haven't had the chance to. I plan to be active again next year. I love volunteer work!
This year, I do not plan to give gifts to my friends and relatives. I will donate my christmas budget to Jesus Loves Little Children instead. :)
5. What one gift would you like for yourself?
I know that this sounds so weird but I hope the situation in the Philippines will improve. I also pray for good health for me and my loved ones.
As for tangible gifts, I'd love a Pocket PC or Tablet PC. Asa pa!

Costume for Christmas Party
Still can't decide on my costume for our Christmas Party on wednesday. The marketing group wanted to have a theme for the costumes, but it might too hard to coordinate. The girls feel it's gonna be easier for the guys. Imagine just going in a suit with shades with a plastic gun - that's Men in Black for you! Oh well, I'm sure I'll come up with something over the weekend. Any suggestions?
Smart Eload and Prepaid Cards
I'm pretty happy with the sales of our Smart Eload, so far. We actually get to sell P1000 worth of load in 2 or 3 days. Not bad! Hope this continues. :) As for the prepaid cards, steady daily sales so not bad too.
Okay, time to look for an additional racket... Any suggestions?

Christmas Party
The theme of our christmas party this year is 'characters' - whether movie characters, cartoon characters, or superheroes. I distributed the nomination forms for the awards, called the ABSi Oscar 2003 (as in Oscar the Grouch!). Awards include "Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang... dumating?" for those who are always late, "Patikim ng Pinya" for those who always ask for food (matakaw), "Clueless" for those who are always windang or tuliro, and "Pinakamagandang Hayop sa Balat ng Lupa" for the pretty ones. Gonna be a good one!

Nice, simple night
I had dinner with Jovan and Lawrence last night at Cafe Bola in Greenbelt 3. Even if he's here for a very sad reason, it was really nice seeing Lawrence again. The food was good, and the company better. Then there's Intolerable Cruelty.
It wasn't a great movie. For a comedy, there were only a few scenes that elicited loud laughs from the audience. But I enjoyed it anyway. It was amusing to see George Clooney being wacky. And of course Catherine Zeta-Jones was so lovely, no surprise there.

Blogging
Blogging is a form of self-expression. You get to write about your thoughts, your opinions, your dreams. You get vent out and release your anger. I find it sad that there are times, a lot of times, when you can't post your real thoughts because you know that certain people read your blog. That's the problem with the world wide web, it's too public.
It's too ideal to just say "to hell with everyone, I will write what I want to write". That's not how the world operates. You have to protect yourself and your friends from vicious and stupid and incompetent and evil people.
There are so many things that I want to write about, but I can't. AND IT SUCKS! Thank God for old-fashioned journals. I can write about ANYTHING, and ANYONE. No need to censor yourself.

He may be curt, but he's really sharp. It may be hard to get hold of him, but he knows what he's doing and he's really good at it. He knows his stuff. A lot of people may not like her, but I think she's good at what she does. And he is intelligent. But you? I think you're out of place. Waaaaaaaaaaay out of place.
