Mga Kina-IGNORANTEHAN ko (recently)

1. may TV na ako sa bahay. [sa wakas]..after long months.

2. nagka PC na din kami with Internet connection!! yahoo!!

3. I'm living in a house where I can be totally free.

I listed down the following for a purpose. They may be novel to me now...but there will surely come a time where I will take them for granted. So this is some kind of reminder that I once desired to have them. So that when I look back..I can be GRATEFUL!

Confirm Resign

I have already filed a resignation. And I was a bit antsy when I did it. I feel like I owe the company a lot. So it was mentally, emotionally & psychologically laborious. The heavy feeling was even made intense when so suddenly, out of nowhere [I don't know if it's a coincidence or not] a certain 'compliment' from my student was plastered all over the office. People were like congratulating me as if I was promoted.



Why do I feel my worth from the company when I am so certain about leaving? I've been waiting for this for my almost 3 years tenure. Why?

It's really hard..but I feel good at the same time. That I am needed somewhere. That there is a space that will be vacated in case I leave. The feeling is surreal. I can't explain. I am not so sure if where I'm headed is as stable as this. Honestly I'm kind of dreading & looking forward to it at the same time. I really like this uncertainty. All these years I've made sure of everything before aiming for it. But this time the excitement is priceless. I'm going to step out of my shell. It's liberating.

Just the thought of the novelty of experience that lies ahead is really making me giddy. God help me!

Dream High Madness

What's with these Korean songs, dramas & artists that keeps me glued with them?

MY office & home computer had the following sites bookmarked:

1. Dramabeans

2. Allkpop

3. Popseoul

I can't stand a day without browsing them. Sometimes I feel like I'm betraying the local artists. But I just can't bring myself to truly like them. I just find the local showbiz industry dull. urghh!! ..but anyway...

here we go.

I'd like to share this latest apple of my eye. It's a Korean drama currently being aired every Monday & Tuesday [alam talaga no?]

It's Dream High.

I'm such a digger for high school dramas, movies. Perhaps it's because I never had the most out of my high school life. You know I was busy making a living [being the walking sari sari store of the class]. That's why at least I try to go back to that stage again with them.

Anyways...this drama is about the endeavors of Kirin Arts High School students to reach their dreams of becoming stars/idols.

At first I found it [& myself for watching it] shallow. It depicts HS crushes, loves, dreams & etc. However, as the drama continues some unexpected lessons can be learned. It touches my core being & sometimes make me shed tears. It's fun & really enlivens the youth in me.



Right now I watch the episodes at ep drama & read the recaps at dramabeans.

Don't miss the adventures of Hyemi, Sam-don, Jin-guk, Jason & Pil Suk!

By the way, my favorite character is Pil Suk & I really like the pairing of Pil Suk (IU in real life) & Jason (Wooyoung of 2pm).


this used to be Pil-Sook


her new look!




Pil-Sook & Jason in the movie house


this is them now.

See my point? I'm even more familiar with their names than the new names in the local industry. haisst.

I can't wait for next few episodes.

[update: my heart is torn by the 10th episode. T.T]

Sweet Handicap

Last weekend I played softball. It must sound mundane for some but it was really my first time. So it was something special. And aside from that I also had a realization. I felt like I've just unearthed a real jewel.

It's been a long time since I tried something new in my life. For the past year I'd been playing it safe to avoid rocking the boat. I was too scared to lose the good things that I was experiencing/had. Little did I know that it narrowed my horizon. It had confined me to an isolated world only few people dare to cross.

Anyway I guess it's never too late to explore the world..

ah......

I was intending to write about my body pain but I don't know how to insert it here so it'll just go like this.


The softball I mentioned I just tried made me so blissful. Trying new things never fail to amaze me. I am in pain literally.

In our PE Class I played as the pitcher for the team. I didn't know that it is a big role in the game. I was like groping in the dark. I even didn't know the rules of the game but I was grateful to play. They had confidence in me for reasons I don't know. I did my best. After that I was still not satisfied & I joined other classes playing volleyball. I tired myself out until I was totally drained of energy.



so when I got back to work this Monday I've been in pain all over.

woah! Even getting up from my seat becomes so laborious. I feel like an old hag suffering from arthritis & different illnesses. My manager even thought I have some serious illness when she saw me holding onto the wall, doors & windows treading the hallway. [hahaha]



This may be really painful but it is outweighed by the satisfaction I got. Next time I'll play I will not forget to do stretching & warm up!

Much Loved PE Class

I'm now in my fourth year but I still take up PE classes. It could have been remedied in some 'easier' ways considering your status as a 'graduating' student but I insist on enrolling this class.

For me it's the only way I can drag my self out of the bed to sweat.
[actually I don't have to be dragged coz I really like doing physical activities without spending much.]


So there! Although I feel a little degraded & feel embarrassed wearing the PE uniform only first year & second year students wear..I still want this.

Through this class I came to be acquainted with other sports aside from my favorite ones [badminton & volleyball]



[table tennis - a game I used to hate]





[darts - a seemingly difficult one]




[softball - my current favorite which is also the reason for my handicap nowadays]

Sports like this should never go unnoticed. Only now I wish I have I can try some more like maybe soccer?.

There are a lot of wonders the world can offer. They are just everywhere waiting to be unraveled. explore it! love it! live with it!
