rule of thumb

i wrote this down in 2000 -- i don't remember now where i got it from exactly. very good points to live by...

1 - Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different, each of us is special.
2 - Don't see your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
3 - Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
4 - Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
5 - Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
6 - Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
7 - Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold too tightly; and the way to keep love is to give it wings.
8 - Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going.
9 - Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
10 - Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.

MURPHY'S LAW

share and share alike i say...i first read this at the waiting room of dr. lapus -- the family opthalmologist. i'm not sure how relevant that information is -- just thought i had to say something by way of introduction. MURPHY'S LAW 1. Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong. 2. You will always find something in the last place you look. 3. No matter how long or how hard you shop for an item, after you've bought it, it will be on sale somewhere cheaper. 4. The other line always moves faster. 5. In order to get a loan, you must first prove you don't need it. 6. Anything you try to fix will take longer and cost you more than you thought. 7. If you fool around with a thing for very long you will screw it up. 8. If it jams - force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway. 9. When a broken appliance is demonstrated for the repairman, it will work perfectly. 10. Build a system that even a fool can use, and only a fool will use it. 11. Everyone has a scheme for getting ri...

here comes the bride...

my friend gina, got married over the weekend and i have to say it was a beautiful wedding. it was the couple who planned for everything -- from the invitations, to the flowers, to the venue, to the tokens for the guests -- everything! it was very well organized -- there were a few close calls but otherwise just perfect. we were honored (and i use that term very loosely) to help coordinate on the day itself and although it was nerve wracking and tiring (running around in heels is not my idea of fun!) not to mention the fact that we had to be up at an ungodly hour because the wedding was to be at 7 in the morning!!! -- it was well worth it though. here are a few of the pictures: the heroes of the day! we accept events coordination for KBL (kasal, binyag at libing)!

old friends

i was browsing through the web one day (just like any other day) when i clicked on a link that looked promising. i saw a familiar name so i called the no. listed (which was an overseas no. but what the heck!) and to make a long story short i found my old college friend. i was sooo excited! it was like my birthday and christmas rolled into one. unbelievable! and when i finally got to talk to her it was as if it was just yesterday when we saw each other last. we've set up a date so looking forward to that.
