Where It All Went Wrong

It all went wrong when I finished my studies. When I thought that late night studying for exams and early class the next day were the hardest things to manage. Oh! The things I am willing to exchange just to get back to those days again.

It all went wrong when I thought that landing a job was a piece of cake. I thought that it was only a matter of time and I will soon be able to find a job. 11 years after, here I am still unemployed.

It all went wrong when I expected too much from people. When I thought that I meant to them as much as they do to me. When I thought that my mistakes would be overlooked. Cause why not? I was still a child.

It all went wrong when everything has changed right before my very eyes. I thought that things will never turned out the way they do now. But, hey! You know what they say. "The only constant thing in the world is change."

It all went wrong when I crave peace over anything. When I expected people to have compassion on other human being. When I expected them to understand what other people are going through. It went wrong when I thought that people care about the feelings of others. It all went wrong when I found out other's true color. That there are really some people who could be so self-centered. They only care about themselves. They only care what they can benefit from others. They could be so self-involved and wouldn't care about other people's feelings.

But perhaps, what I thought went wrong was actually the beginning of something. When everything starts to make sense. It's probably the universe's way of unfolding things one by one. That I have to see things from another point of view. That I have to learn how to leave my comfort zone. That uncertainty is part of life and I have no control over it. Maybe that's the way things should be. Maybe, just maybe, what I thought went wrong is really the beginning of things to finally fall into place. 




au revoir. 😊

My Worst Job Interview Experience

I probably shared with you in the past how I struggled to find a job. I've been to a lot of job interviews. And when I say a lot, I mean a looooooooot. I couldn't count how many job interviews I attended. Whether virtually or on site. There's this one interview that goes on top of the worst interviews I attended. It was somewhere in Pasig. It was an agency. I saw the job posting online, so I sent my resume. They texted me and told me that I had an interview. So I went there. ‎  I am not used to wearing shoes with heels. So every time I attended an interview back then, I always left the house wearing flat shoes. I just bring with me other shoes with heels. Then I'll change before the interview when I'm already near the area. But when I had this interview, one of the soles detached from the flat that I was wearing. I was feeling it before I rode the bus, then it fell off when I was already inside the bus. So I had to wear the shoes with high heels that I brought. The

Surprisingly, I had my 2nd dose of anti-covid vaccine earlier than I was expecting. It happened last Monday, November 22. If you want to read about what happened during my first dose just click this.  I already expected a long line and a lot of people in the vaccination site, so I wasn't surprised when I got there. It was crowded. It felt like I went to school for an enrolment because there are really a lot of children there with their own chaperone.  I went there at almost two in the afternoon. The good thing is that there are designated lines for children, for those who will be having their first dose, and for second dose. There were only 3 people in the line for the second dose when I got there.  Unlike during my first dose where I didn't wait that long, this time the waiting took me three hours to get my second dose vaccine. Fortunately, there was a waiting area outside and it wasn't raining, but it was the hottest time of the day. I had my blood pressure checked before

Sat With Ree: Westlife The Twenty Tour

Tell me you're a 90's kid without telling me that you're a 90's kid.  So, I say a little prayer  And hope my dreams will take me there  Where the skies are blue  To see you once again, my love  Overseas, from coast to coast  To find a place I love the most  Where the fields are green  To see you once again  My love Taas ang dalawang paa nong mga napakanta. Yieeeeeeee. If you know the song you definitely had an amazing childhood. Natatandaan ko nong bata pa ako nanghihiram pa kami ng VCD ng Westlife don sa tiyohin namin na kapitbahay lang namin. Ang laman ng VCD syempre music video ng Westlife. Tapos yong pinsan ko tili ng tili tuwing nanunuod lalo na kapag si Nicky yong pinapakita. Crush na crush niya kasi noon si Nicky. Tapos ang bet ko noon si Mark. Ang kukulit kasi nila don sa mga music videos nila. Tapos kapag Saturday sa Channel 5 (hindi ko alam kung anong name nong channel basta Channel 5 siya sa amin) music video yong mga pinapalabas. Kasama don yong 'Bop Bop
