Changing New Blogskin

The other day I got stuck up changing my blog skins which I get it from here you can choose different kind of blogskins which is according to your personal taste and which is personally made by such gracious individual who shared there works on blogskins site. You just need a little knowledge in the HTML to edit a few and put your personal profile in it. It took me a day to finish it, because my browser is having a problem it is too slow, plus I need to do a little tweaks on my laptop to make my internet a little bit faster than the usual.

Old blogskin

My old blogskin is just simple and a bit classy, I like it! The only flaws of it is the letter its just too small that I even had a hard time reading. By the way, when you use the ready-made blogskin don't remove the credit or the name of the creator on that way it maintain respect for those who spend their sweat and time making it for us to easily use and make our blog more attracting and cute.

The new layout I chose is more of a child look it's cute and plus the artistry of the picture is one of the main reason I choose it, I love arts and if you can see the detail of the drawing it's very cute and very colorful. It's very me, it's like letting out the child in me. I hope this one will take time until I change it, because I had this habit of changing layout every time I saw a new cute one.

A Writers Block or Just to Lazy to Write?



It's been a long vacation on my blog since my last post from 2012 and its already 2013, in which I promised I will do a post regularly but again I failed to do so. I guess, I had this so-called "writers' block" and had a feeling that I don't have interesting thing to post and share in my virtual haven, even though I had (kinda confusing right?).

It's 1:46am and I'm still wide awake downloading apps for my mobile and its eating my entire 3 hours without noticing it is almost past midnight and early morning, and now my hands is on this keyboard writing a blog.

A few days ago I had found a website where I can download and read classic books online here, now I have few downloaded books and still not started reading a bit yet. Hope, I can do so, I have this a little bit problem when I started opening my laptop so many things I want to do on the internet once I open it, first is to open my FB account, browse my public wall, click likes of friends post, write a few status messages, read a few status of other post, and lastly play all my favorite FB games (The Ville, ChefVille, Farmandia, Megapolis, Farmville 2, 8 Ball Billiard) actually my times are mostly wasted on games since FB games is took minutes of minutes before it will open and you can play. Next thing I know reading e-books is already left behind again.



Good time management is what I really, really need to sort everything out that I need to do in a day, 'cause I thought so many plans to do but when I started sitting in front of my laptop everything was out of line. And when the time its getting late that's when the time I remember to do this and that, I'm almost low bat to do it my Mañana Habit principles applies right away.

But then I had few good things that I could tell about me which is I didn't give up on a thing that I really, really wanted to know, so I search diligently until I found the answer, I don't complain on a manner when I know its justifiable. I always tried to understand things that goes around and comes around my way.

Anyway, I'm just hopeful for a bright 2013 ahead of us, more plans that can fulfill in the future, and hope everyone of us will enjoy every day that pass by.

The First Flight to Independency

Everyone has their own dreams to fulfill, and I have lots when in case with dreams' issue. It was 2005 then when I had my first flight to independency. It's been my long dream to work abroad, though I had a good decent job in the Philippines, a pioneering employee in one of the American companies in which grew successfully (as I could say I am proud that we are also part of the backbone of the company) but then longing working abroad does not fade away, but the more I think of it; the further I desire to fulfill it.

Then one call from my brother changed the future and on the other side, it's going to fulfill the long-time dream. I am nervous and ecstatic at the same time. Mixed emotion eating up my mind, my courage has been gradually wither with "what if" questions mark that keeps playing in my mind like a never ending song in which it almost scares me to death, but my strong-willed fight back too that this is what I wanted long time ago, to work abroad.

Excitement grew more inside as I arrange my resignation to my company, I feel proud that one of my dreams is almost at the grasp of my hand only few days to count on, and I was there. Finally, says "this is it!: but my heart is also pounding and filled with mixed emotions' longing for my long-time comrades, subordinates, my daily gruelling task in the office like considered it as almost a habit (Papers, computers, meetings, subordinates, a time to time client updates, transmission deadlines, issues in the office that's been throwing like a dirty toilet paper and more others). There is nothing more exciting but to be away from continuous production drama from some crab mentality area under discussion.

I arranged everything from resignation to my luggage; date of arrival is March 19, 2005 to be exact as what my memory recalls it. I checked in my luggage is inside, I had tickets, boarding pass everything is okay all I need is to queue in the immigration area, but never thought of going to fail it three times and three times that I had to go back home carrying my luggage to my disgrace. Definitely, I had to look for the reason of failing it to get the approval of the immigration officer. I have supporting papers, passport, tickets, boarding pass, and terminal fee is paid all documents are definitely a McCoy. So, I sought for my auntie's help since she was a commander in chief in the ATO before she resigned and the one sitting as Director in the Airport is one of her subordinates so to speak. She escorted me on the 3rd day, and called the so-called friend of her or long time co-workers just if anything possible happens of disapproval by the immigration officer again without any potential reasons, then he could give a helping hand. My auntie was to believe that there is no other reason for holding an approval for my exit stamp, so she is willin gto help that is. To cut the long story short, I re-discovered that there was some kind of fishy thing or anomaly cooking inside (whatever that is) thanks that it was then reached the knowledge of our VP after visiting the UAE last March 2011. So, hoping there is no such kind of dilemma in getting an exit visa or stamp (whatever they call it).

After a long drama in getting my exit visa (stamp) approval I finally get on board. The feeling is I finally here sitting on a plane going on a journey I once long for "the first flight of my independency". While sitting in Boeing 747 of Cathay Pacific mixed emotions boiling in again, other unsolicited feelings that I could not even describe. A feeling of a one long time dream that indeed has come true and a new pace of life that is awaiting me in Dubai which is still cannot be revealed and still all behind the clouds.

...next time I tried to tell  about my life and bumps in Dubai. Hope to do so.
