LAST DAY OF 2012

10:49PM, one hour and eleven minutes before January 1^st of 2013. I remember last year, parang ganito din ata ang introduction 'ko? Anyway, this will be my last post this year. Naka-ugalian ko naman talaga every yearend maggawa ng post dito sa online diary ko. Toink. Well, ang kaibahan lang siguro last year, sa Cellphone lang ako nag-ta-type, pero ngayon sa laptop na (nag-level up. TNT). Last year, medyo tahimik lang ang paligid, pero ngayon ang ingay-ingay, nagpapa-tugtog kasi ako ng mga songs from my USB, using our newly owned/purchased Home Theater showcase (Taray), actually kahapon lang namin 'to binili, biglaan nga eh, Flatscreen LED TV with DVD with Amplifier and speakers, marahil hindi naman talaga namin kailangan ng ganyang ka-bonggang TV pero sino ba'ng aayaw ng magandang TV, 'di ba? Atsaka para naman may maipundar ako this Christmas, kung nagka-pera man ako nitong nagdaang pasko, ayoko namang unti-unti lang 'yon maubos sa wala, maigi na 'yung may mai-pundar ako para sa aming tahanan, 'di ba?

Sabi ni Father Jason kanina sa misa, kaya tayo tumatalon tuwing New Year ay hindi dahil upang tumangkad tayo, tumatalon tayo upang sa pag-pasok ng bagong taon, umangat naman tayo, tumatalon tayo hindi upang tumaas ang height natin bagkus tumaas naman ang antas ng buhay natin. Sino ba'ng ayaw sumagana at umunlad ang buhay? 'Di ba wala? Taun-taon, 'yun lang ang lagi kong dasal, ang umunlad at sumagana ang aming buhay, kung hindi man kami yumaman ng biglaan (like winning on a lottery, becoming a millionaire instantly) pero kung unti-unti naman magiging maayos ang buhay namin at araw-araw kami'ng magkakasama, wala na'ng mas liligaya pa sa aming pamilya.

Last year, 20 years old lang ako (Lol), Local Store Marketing sa McDo, Single (not married), sabihin na natin na masaya din naman ako kahit papaano last year, pero mas masaya ako ngayon. Sinalubong ko ang 2012 last year na malungkot, pero kailangan magsaya, puno pa rin ng pag-asa, I remember last year, sabi ko sa sarili ko maraming mangyayari sa akin sa taong 2012, pero ngayon na-rerealize ko na lahat ang mga nangyari ngayong taong 2012 na nagdaan. Anu-ano nga ba?

January 2012, usual lang, nag-iisip ng mga maaaring mangyari sa mga susunod na buwan, February 2012, nag-celebrate ng Valentine's Day na single, dahil walang jowa, pero still nag-celebrate pa din ako with my friends and my loved ONE, naka-duty ako nun sa McDo tapos.. (oh 'wag na'ng balikan pa! TNT), March 2012, wala ako'ng maalala, ay wait! Kunin ko pala 'yung planner ko para maalala ko ang mga nangyari nung March, ayun! Busy ako sa McDo, training newly-hired service crews, party-hosting, nag-aapply pala ako ng bagong work (oh 'di ba, nasa resigning stage na pala ako that time), at higit sa lahat may jowa pala ako (February 23 to March 20, 26 days lang naging kami ni _ _ _, medyo nasaktan ako kasi naloko na naman ako, but I'm not sure kung totoo nga, pero proud ako, kasi sa 26 days na naging kami, siguri 4 or 5 days lang kami hindi nagkita :)) April 2012, 5 years na ako as a Lector, and I'm so proud of it, masaya ang naging Fiesta samin kahit sa pagtapos ng araw ay may patayang naganap (so fatal) busy din ako sa McDo nyan, with my Kiddie Crews, lalo na sa Batch 3 kids, sa kanila ko na-feel ang pagiging teacher ko. May 2012, sa buwan na iyan madaming nagbago sa buhay ko, for about two years and seven months ko sa McDo, I finally filed my resignation letter, may part na masakit sa akin ang umalis na sa McDo, but that's life, lahat naman kami (my friends, crewmates) ay mawawala sa McDo, una-una lang 'yan, we have to grow. May 16 ng mapirmahan ng pangulo ang Cityhood ng Cabuyao, 'yun din ang first day ko sa bago kong pamilya, sa aking bagong trabaho. June 2012, medyo nag-aadjust pa sa bago kong workplace, workmates, pero exciting din. Last three days of June ng first time kong makarating ng Davao for a product presentation (oh 'di ba bongga). July 2012, business meeting, site visiting, meeting clients, attending different events, first time ko ding makarating ng Zambales. August 2012, ang malaking pagbabago sa aking bayan, August 04 ang plebiscite ng Cabuyao, at syempre it was ratified and became officially a City on that day. September 2012, second time ko maging coordinator sa awarding ng mga bahay sa sundalo, busy sa work, at syempre nabuhay lalo ang social life ko, I experienced so many things, promise! October 2012, we welcomed the secong Filipino saint, Saint Pedro Calungsod. November 2012, enjoying my social life with one of my closest friends, Lovelyn, I met so many friends in Clan, attending GEBs, etc. Attending planning sessions (in Subic for three days), madami akong nakilalang tao ng buwang ito, mga naging malapit kaagad sila sa puso ko, kaya I know hindi ko kaagad sila makakalimutan. December 2012, I celebrated my birthday more bonggacious than last year, I can say. Ahm, sa mga huling araw ng taon madaming mga bagay ang hindi ko talaga makakalimutan, promise! Mga bagong pangyayari, kaibigan, crush, etc. May mga na-feel ako these past few days, marami akong biyaya na natanggap, hindi lang regalo, reward, blessings, that is why I will always be thankful to God. I will not mention anything here, alam ko na lahat 'yon. I feel more blessed this year than last year. Thanks be to God forever,

My predictions for the coming year of the Water Snake, magiging masagana daw ang taon kong ito, basta't maging humble lang daw ako, I will do it. Pagdating sa Lovelife, ahm, magiging masaya din daw ako this year, (sa wakas! LOL) basta 'wag daw akong maging arogante, I will do.

So, thank you and good bye 2012, and welcome 2013! Though the coming year is with number “13”, but we should be positive for the whole year and everything will be in good place.

Let us all welcome 2013 with LOVE in our HEARTS, PEACE in our MINDS and GOD in our LIVES..

SIERRA MADRE VILLAGE: CABUYAO? OR NOT?

Sierra Madre Village, Santa Elena, Cabuyao City. I'm not sure if that Village, Sierra Madre, is really located in Cabuyao, or can I say that, it is located in Cabuyao but not really addressed by its developer as located in Cabuyao? It is situated, as you can see, beside Cabuyao Exit from SLEx. I wonder if someone will say that it is located in Santa Rosa City. But if you will serach for its website, or on any advertisement, its "Site Location" is addressed as Santa Rosa City. I don't know why?

I believe, that Sierra Madre Village is in Cabuyao City. Not in Santa Rosa.

My recent picture... before I get too biiiiiiiiiiiiig... oh no :s

SM CITY CABUYAO?

SM CITY CABUYAO - it's possible, I heard that Sy's vision of having SM Malls in every five minute-distance travel will help raise an SM Mall in Cabuyao. Cabuyao, one of the youngest cities, has no mall since its incorporation, thinking that it became the "Richest Municipality in the Philippines" for the last three consecutive years. The highlighted portion on the map was not really an SM Mall, it is the Cabuyao Commercial Center (CCC), a three-storey commercial building built and operated decades ago. It had Cabuyao Grocery Store, a Jollibee branch, Chowking, an arcade upstairs and three cinema houses on third floor. I remember when I was a little kid, it was my first time to watch a movie on a cinema house in CCC, Cedie was the movie on the silver screen. LOL. But now it is still standing, but not operating anymore. The green fences covering the whole structure indicates nothing on what will the commercial building be in the future. Only rumors. Rumors say that Sy already bought it to redevelop, but there's still no fact about the rumor. But wether it will be developed to become an SM Mall, or a Hypermarket or SaveMore, it will still be the old Cabuyao Commercial Center in the hearts of Cabuyeños who had been served by it long time ago.
