The stories of my life on the way to the corporate ladder

When did September happen?

I still can’t believe it’s September already. It’s been a week since the “ber months” officially kicked-off, yet I still can’t swallow the thought that, indeed, it’s September and Christmas is just around the corner. On another note, a slightly sadder one, it’s been so long since I last posted something here. I feel like not posting regularly is a crime, which I am shamefully guilty of. As such, I also feel that it’s a must that I give justice to the previous month and honor it with a blog post. So anything September-related will have to wait, hopefully not too long.

For the benefit of this blog, I will refer to August as “this month”

Ever since I was a kid, the older folks have always referred to August as the “ghost month”. Business is usually down, financial difficulty is a common complaint and losing is just an easy task. For me however, this month has been an eventful one, even more than what I expected it to be.

Quick Chow

In a world where everything flies so fast, in a city that never sleeps and everyone just keeps on moving, thanks God for the existence of fast-food hubs. There’s nothing like a quickie to nourish the battered body and quench the dry soul.

22 Bites

They say reality bites, I say let’s bite back—harder!

Last March 7, I celebrated that 22nd bite along with my family, loved ones and friends. One KFC party-CMG style and another old school house party. :D

For that 22 years, I had my own time of getting the lion’s share then there were those times when life feels like having no choice but to feast on the leftovers. Nonetheless, I thank God for being the perfect Chef and the people around me for the being the best ingredients in my life. :) Continue reading

This is the life

Remind me to stop and take a breather one of these days… please!

I’ve been missing a lot of online actions lately, which actually serves as a catharsis for me; hence, the statement above. Yes, it’s not that I’m being deprived of a “life”, I just really miss my social media life.haha I blame it all to my “double agent” career.

1. Over a Piece of Cake – My dear online journal/whatever. I hope with this entry, the once or twice a week posting habit will ignite once again.

2. Im Underexposed – The self-proclaimed photography enthusiast slash hobbyist in me is sleeping along with my camera in my drybox. I should wake that up soon. Real soon.

3. I Am Underexposed – The absence of that abbreviation makes a difference even though they basically contain the same.hehe

On a lighter note, being a “double agent”, though extremely tiring and stressing, is really fulfilling; plus, I can’t deny that I’m having fun along the way. I just have to develop a tougher set of bones to survive physically, mentally and emotionally.

For the record, I’m not a mole in an organization nor a spy for another group. Go figure. :P

Soon.
