I hate this....

   I don't like feeling like this... I don't like waiting for something that might not even come.. One of the reasons why I like being in my current status is the fact that I get to be on my own, not needing something/someone.  I hate it!

my Gong Yoo 2012-2013 calendar

   I'm so happy, I got my Gong Yoo calendar today care of Rachel.  She went to Korea over the weekend and was able to buy calendars for Melai and I Yay!!! Btw, thanks to Kalamay Addict for letting me know about Rachel's trip and telling her to buy me one too ;)  This made my day when I got it yesterday.  You can see this calendar on my desk and I can see Gong Yoo everyday for 2 years!! LOL!!! 

This is before a pinky swear, not picking his nose! LOL!!

I love his smile here :):)

I wish...

   I wish I have the power to freeze time... I wish I can stay longer with my family... Ugh!! I can't believe how fast that 3 weeks went! Today is my last day here in Virginia with my family and I really don't want to leave yet, but I have to.  I'm going to miss them again terribly... *sigh*

   My flight tomorrow is at 6:10am, and I have to leave at least 4am. I don't think I'd be sleeping tonight cause I still have to finish packing, though I already did most of it last night.  I'm not really looking forward to more than 24 hours of travel time and going back to work after a few hours I've arrived in Singapore... *sigh* 

Impromptu Dance Number

   Dec 25, 2011, there was a Filipino Christmas party here in Norfolk, VA and my sister was included in the program.  She didn't know about it until we got to the place and was told she will be dancing as part of the evening's activity.  Good thing she already have a song and dance in mind.  Who would think that this performance was just on top of her head and wasn't practiced at all??  

   

   Yeah, I am a proud ate and I'm biased ;)  She's the talented one in the family and here's a proof :)  Love you Pyong!! *mwah*

2011 is OUT and 2012 is IN

   Happy New Year everyone!!! I hope 2012 (year of the Dragon according to the Chinese calendar) will be a better year for all of us.  *Cheers*

   Don't get me wrong, 2011 is one of my favorite years in my life and this year had been a very good year to me.  There had been a lot of good changes and location movement for me.  I moved from working in Philippines to Singapore, which to be honest, made it easier for me to save money and help my family out in times of financial crisis.  With that, I'd always be grateful.  I was also able to save up enough  money to visit my parents and be with them after almost 5 years of being away from them. Plus, I get to see the eastern side of USA, which is a big bonus ;)

   

   Now let's see what's in store for me in 2012 based on the Chinese Horoscopes.  I was born on the year of the HORSE and according to Horoscopes2012, this is what I can expect from 2012:

According to the Chinese horoscope 2012, people born in horse year tends to be more optimistic towards life and lead a healthy life this year. There might be little changes in your family member numbers, whether someone move in or move out. The horse zodiac sign people are obviously very hard worker and determined to accomplish their goals. They tend to be more extemporaneous and witty to solve the intricacies of the life in order to lead a happy life. As horse people fear of finishing that they start as they thought they will miss something so it is better to end up what you have started to get the results. As per the Chinese horoscope 2012 prediction, this year you will head towards a romantic love life with your loved ones because you are enough open-minded to express and listen the feelings.

As far as career is concerned, you will try to do anything according to your capability and ability. The Chinese horoscope 2012 reveals that you don’t think too much about money to focus on your work and efforts to accomplish the objective. This quality will lead you profitable efforts. The health horse Chinese horoscope 2012 forecasts that you will be healthy throughout the year, except few digestive ailments and abdominal aches. You can make your career as language teachers, pilots, journalists and translators.

   I have highlighted a few items that I find a little accurate and pretty interesting... first one about changes in family member numbers.  That's pretty accurate because my brother will soon be moving to Virginia USA to live permanently with my parents.

   

   As for the second one, this is quite interesting, it says I will head towards a romantic love life with my loved one.  But I don't have a loved one yet, so maybe I should have one first before having a romantic love life with him, right?  We'll see.  For the past few years my Chinese horoscope has been saying that I will have a love life, but it hasn't happened yet.

   

   For the career, well I know when I go back to work from my 3-week vacation it's going to be tough and there will be tons of work.  I'm just going to take it one day at a time and not stress myself too much.  I do hope that things will work out fine... profitable efforts will be a plus but I'm not expecting too much.  The funny thing is the last part of the horoscope... I can make a career as a language teacher, pilot, journalist or translator... Hmmmm, is this a sign that I have to finish my studies on Korean language?  Well, why not?  I'd probably enroll again as long as I find a class that will suit my schedule at work and maybe I can have a 2nd job as a teacher ;)

Here's another horoscope from Moonslipper, the same link I used for 2011 in my previous post:

Forecast for 2012 The remaining months of 2011 will see the sociable Horse in great demand! However, tact and discretion should be used in all gatherings – otherwise feelings could be hurt. The Dragon Year will be an auspicious one for the Horse, providing he proceeds carefully and steadily. Surprises will await the Horse on the career front and if he acts quickly, the world can be his oyster. May, October and December will provide the most exciting opportunities at work. The Chinese Zodiac shows that the quick pace of the year may try the Horse’s resolve and patience, but a clear head and steady progress will reap rewards. Like other signs, the Horse must remain careful when dealing with money, legal documents and important paperwork. This is not the time for speculation or carelessness. Love will be highlighted during 2012 for most Horses. If attached, the relationship will grow and strengthen. If single, exciting chance encounters can happen at any time during 2012! Late spring and August and October will be the most active social times. A chance to travel during the year will definitely pop up and the Horse will find travel invigorating and relaxing during this volatile and exciting year. By using common sense, being adaptable and hard-working, the Horse will find 2012 a most inspiring and successful year.

   Looks like the both sites are pointing towards a better career opportunity for me if I work hard enough and if I am patient enough.  And both sites are pointing to a chance for a love life... Hahaha!! Let's wait and see ;)  Maybe I'd meet Gong Yoo in real life and become my love interest? LOL!!!

   Again, these horoscopes are not meant to lead our lives.  Everything that happens to us is still according to God's will and to every decision and choices we make.  Let's all make 2012 a fruitful one!! 

PS:  Hopefully I'll be better at posting blog entries this year too :)
