Missing the old life

CJ — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 01:01:36 +0000

I miss the night life I used to have back in the West. My partner would be performing almost nightly with his group of friends and I would normally tag along – if there’s nothing much to do at home. He would be playing on his Sapetar, his awesome Australian friend would be jamming along with his 5 string bass while his great drummer will be hitting up on his double pedal drum. Great life, great life… I wonder if we’ll meet up again with his friends someday and see them jam along together like they used to..

The Year of the Dragon. Roar~

CJ — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 04:03:07 +0000

2012 seems like a good year for me. A few projects are coming in and you can almost see the $$$ sign on my eyes. Ha ha!

Anyway, before I could hatch up a plan in getting a brand new tablet (preferably a bb playbook), I would probably use the money to setup my new studio: my graphic studio. Right now, my studio is in a sorry state.. I would have to buy a new table, a chair.. and probably a brand new PC as well!

Now let us all hope that the year of the Dragon will bring us more fortune and good luck.. and more $$$

I was at the beach

CJ — Mon, 19 Dec 2011 01:08:08 +0000

I was out walking along the beach yesterday with my partner and sibling when we came across this beautiful sunset view:

(Picture does not do justice to the beautiful view!)

It made me stop and think that ..life is indeed beautiful, if you stop to smell the flowers, or rather stop to see the sunset. He he. And then on our way back, we bumped into a cousin’s wife and her lovely daughter. Such a sweet surprise for we haven’t seen them for quite a while. She looked so beautiful! I guess that’s what you become when you have love in your family. *wink* She just got back from a visit to Manila with her husband and I think it made her glow when she said that. LOL. I suggested that they should go somewhere farther for their 2nd (or 3rd) honeymoon. To Canada perhaps and see those steel buildings in canada! Ha ha. That’ll be something new, right?

Bizzy Biz

A friend and I was talking about setting up our own business over here. Of course, it must have something to do with cuteness and pink (my favorite color and thing, after all). There were a few suggestions that came up and one of it was about opening up a chic cafe. LOL. Like we know how to run a cafe.. But even if we DO open up a cafe (and learn how to cook in a quickie), we would have to have a lot of fund for it. Maybe for starters we can get those used restaurant equipments? Wouldn’t cost much but at least they are still usable. Besides, it’s good to recycle.

Or maybe we should open up a cupcake cafe…Hmmm

So many things, so little moola :P

Moved into our new apartment. A lot of work has to be done. There’s the new furniture to buy, new wall paints (because I didn’t like the current wall paint color), new curtains to buy..and a brand new samsung lcd to get! We practically do not have anything in this house, except for the pots and pans that my mom brought in for us! Ha ha ha. At times like this, I wish I have all the money in the world so I could just get any nice furniture I like, any wallpaper and pay someone to get it fixed.

Anyone would like to donate some money to me? *hee*

Going jobless

CJ — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 05:55:25 +0000

Last day at work today.. should I be happy? I finally could spend more time on the computer, working on my freelance graphic design stuff. Right? Or should I spend the time to myself, meditating and exercising? Sounds like really cool too! Or maybe I should start packing some stuff and advertising my other things that I can, since we’re moving to another state soon. Whatever it is, I HAVE to do something! Maybe start hunting for a job for next year – Radiologic Technologist Jobs sounds interesting as well? Maybe I should try that one out, see if anyone would gimme a chance. Ha ha!

Whatever it is, I hope God will be with me along the way…

Coach Poppy – Yay!

CJ — Thu, 14 Jul 2011 20:57:49 +0000

I finally got me a Coach Poppy bag. Hurray!!

The Poppy collection comes in a few pieces, but I particularly love the Legacy collection – particularly the colorful stripes. I first saw this collection at a local website in Malaysia. I was so eager to get one the moment I saw it and instantly fell head over heels in love with it!

A few months of saving some $$, I finally get to buy one! I am still keeping the dust bag, paper bag, the receipt and even the laser barcode scanner label for rememberance.

After all, this is my first expensive bag. :-P

That’s what friends are for..

CJ — Sun, 10 Jul 2011 19:50:49 +0000

I just got back from a BBQ outing with my friends. They are actually my colleague but I call them friends, because they ARE indeed good friends of mine. Maybe it’s not too much to say that they are so much better than my real friends. Well, MOST of my real friends. I am talking in terms of being there when you needed a shoulder to cry on. Or being there when you needed someone to laugh with! I’m not saying that my friends are not there for me when I needed someone to talk to, it’s probably because we are grown up and we lead our different lives on our own. My colleagues are always there with me, so it’s easy for them to be there most of the time. They’ll probably be there when I’m in sickness as well. Heck, they might even get me the Howard medical carts if I need one!

Bottom line: A friend in need is a friend indeed.

When I Need Her

CJ — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 01:34:28 +0000

Came back late last night and I have this sudden urge to speak to my mother. But it was as early as 6 in the morning and I guess she’s still sound asleep in her bed. I sent her a text to her phone, saying, “Mom, are you awake? Can we talk?”

No response.

Guess she WAS sleeping. So I sent her another. “Can we chat online around 11 in the morning. I’m going to bed now. Talk to you later!”

Still no reply. Hehe. How I wish we have this megameeting web conferencing software sort of thing, so we could have an ‘online meeting’ later. But I guess I would have to stick to ‘online chatting’ at the moment.

Mom’s Birthday!

CJ — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 08:52:39 +0000

Mom’s birthday is coming up real soon and I am planning to send her another parcel this time: only thing is, what am I gonna send her this time? A box of her favorite perfume? Some Cozumel jewelry? A brand new shoes? Perhaps some nice tops to complement it?

Maybe I should spend some time searching online for gifts for her, since I hardly have time to go to the mall and shop these days. I bet I’ll find a lot of nice stuff for her on the Net that she will love.
