I can't believe February is just 28 days. I have so much to do within the month and I only have a few days left! Marketing stuff for grad comm, thesis, jobs (articles to write, students to teach and calls to take) and to top all these, I'll be in Puerto Galera on Tuesday! Happiness! I can't wait to start the summer in Puerto Galera. I'll be there with my team mates at Convergys for team building. But since my mom wouldn't allow me to go on inter island trips, I told her I'll just be in Batangas. I'm not really telling a lie, right? You have to pass by Batangas to get to Galera. I can't wait to soak under the sun and get a tan.

To make my vacation longer, I had my leave moved to March 1, the day after we get home from Galera so I could still rest but it was not approved. So I'll be forced to take my leave tomorrow. Anyway, I could have more time to prepare for the trip. We'll be leaving Convergys by 1am but my mom said for safety precautions, I should be at Convergys at 9pm coz I could just stay and sleep in the lounge while waiting for my team mates. How pathetic. I'll be at work in my flip flops and everyone will just see me in my most dressed down get up. Hmmmm..... maybe I'll just stay in the lounge and not roam around so people won't see me. I guess I'll just do that.

Updates in my life? Nothing sensational at all. Just work and all that jazz.

Hmmmm..... Yesterday was my first "no big deal" Valentine's day. I was so busy the whole day that I never felt the thrill of Valentine's. Haha! It's a good sign, it means I'm on the right track to singlehood. Anyway, hemmingway, most of my friends are in relationship now so I spent Valentine's alone unlike last year when we went star gazing at Antipolo. I did spend a few minutes with Angeli, Misha and the other JCers then I went home and spent my Valentine's night with mom. She cooked a really hearty meal for me then we watched those mushy movies and JuMong (our favorite Korean soap at the moment). Haha!

Updates at work? Doing good! I just realized I'm so busy but I'm so happy. I've never been so happy with what I'm doing. I mean not all girls my age have at least three jobs, right? But of course there are other things I sacrificed so I could have all my jobs. To tell you, they are really personal things but they are things I'm not sure if they will work out great. Unlike my career where I could see a clear view of everything. Oh, I'm on the other side of media now for the election season-- I'm on the PR side and I'm so trying my best not to get involved in hard core journalism to maintain my credibility and objectivity.

What else? Oh! My mom and I started a business. I call it the ultimate business of the laziest entrepreneur. Why? Coz we only invest and at the end of the day gather what we hustled. No buying and selling, we just let people use our money, haha! My Chinese relatives (they are my dad's family) used to tell me I'll be good in business and they even "forced" me to major in business and now I'm loving business so much that I'm planning to take a master's degree in business and still do PR and still take orders for ProActiv, Windsor Pilates and credit card applications over the phone. Haha!

Now that I'm so loving my jobs, I don't need a guy to spend time with when I could spend more time on my jobs and get paid after with no pain at all. Right?

Whew! Haven't seen my blog in months! I've been too busy with all those money hustling activities that I forgot I have a blog. To add to my jam-packed schedule, I also have my thesis to finish. No updates yet on my thesis to prevent further negative energies. Haha! Hey, the Royal Hotness has to graduate!

Tons of things happened to me. To begin, I still can't get over this guy at school eventhough I don't get to see him anymore. Maybe he is really special. Then, my friends are currently helping me get over this guy coz they said if he's really in to me, he'll make the necessary moves but he's not even doing anything. But he is still the most special guy in my life no matter how many good looking guys come my way which lead me to a number of new guys in my life. I'd like to clarify I don't want to commit myself to any guy (well maybe except for this guy in school if he asks me to) anymore for as long as I live. I'd rather live alone and work, work, work and work. You see, in career, there's always assurance and you know where yoou're going but love life is so uncertain. I'd choose concrete results and reasons than what-ifs so I'm not for love at all. I'm pretty much happy with my relationships right now with my family and friends so there's no need for me to have a certain guy in my life.

What else? Oh yah, I'm planning to quit teaching by next school year but my students asked me not to so I'll stay with them. Election season is up and running that's why I'm writing this and that write-ups for certain politicians (let's not mention the names for MY credibility, haha!). I got a perfect attendance recognition for the month of January (no lates, finally!) so for two weeks, I went to work in jeans. But I have two lates already for the month of February so I guess I'll probally go to work in my business casual outfits which according to my kid cousins make me more respectable. Wafaz! My latest word from Claire's extraordinary vocab.

It's so nice, I got my first Raving Fan at work today. By the way, to update my fans, I'm now in the early morning shift-- 6am-3pm, which means I still teach in the afternoon and hang out at UP after if I'm not drained yet. My free days are Tuesday and Wednesday. Back to my first raving fan. I had a caller from California for a Frank Sinatra CD by Castalian music. I don't know what has gotten into him he just said I have a sweet voice and when I put him on hold, I heard him tell his wife he doesn't know where I'm located and can't identify my accent coz my voice was too sweet. When I finished processing his order, he kept on saying how patient I was and how sweet I was. Then I had him speak to one of the team leaders on the floor and that's it, my first raving fan. Such a historical moment for a newbie on the floor like me. Haha! If only I could tell that guy at school about it. You see, I want him in my life to have someone to share my victories with.

Anyway, Valentine's is fast approaching and I'm planning to surprise him with a cake and I'm now looking for someone at school who may want to deliver my treat to him. Haha! Will he ever know I'm the one behind it? I don't think so. For all I know, I'm the most worthless person in his life. But it's still worth the try.

Til next update!
