Year-End Transition

Tomorrow is my last day with Meginc.
I was with them for almost 6 years so this is a huge leap for me.
I'm managing my mixed-concoction of emotions. (hihi)
I'm sad to leave some dear friends behind; but I am also excited to face new people and new challenges.

Whats instore for me there? Who are the people that I'll work with? What would it be like?

Whenever I get my anxiety attacks (hihi, which usually lasts for 10 minutes), G would gently remind me that every change/beginning is not easy. I somewhat prepared my mindset and myself to embrace whatever may come my way.. I am not sure of everything but I am taking a leap with no regrets. I am blessed to have this opportunity and I am grateful. 

This was the song that Y held on when she left for SG early this year.

Now, it's my turn to sing this Bruno song. 

To those who are making huge changes in their life, to those who are in transition, to those who are second-guessing themselves.. I say, just take the plunge.

• Pray
• Listen to your gut feel. (Sometimes we don't need to over-analyze.)
• Trust the "flow" of events. (You will be able to connect the 'dots' after)
• Embrace change and trust yourself that you are capable to adapt and shine. (Faith in yourself)
• No regrets

"A whole new world is waiting. 

Its mine for the taking. 

I know I can make it. 

Today my life begins.."

Cancer Resource and Wellness (Carewell) Community

I was tagging along with R when she was sending out her school's invitation for their batch alumni event; it was last Wednesday that she and I visited Carewell Foundation in Makati. It's a wellness center that provides support, education, complimentary programs and hope to cancer patients. 

The center radiates a happy and calm atmosphere. There were paintings and artwork on the wall that give a cheery vibe-cute and cheery. R told me that one of the complimentary programs that the center offers is painting/collage. 

I also have to mention that unlike other non-profit organizations, I find sincerity in this NGO.

Remarkable.  To those who are interested to know more about this foundation, please visit their website.

What Is Your Love Language?

The 5 Languages of Love

Dr. Chapman wrote this book and it was published in 1992.

Its been ages since then yet I still hear the buzzword 'language of love'. 

The American author has more than 30 years of experience as a marriage counselor and in his book, he shares the theory/concept that everyone has their own love language and their own way of interpreting love.

He introduced the 5 languages of love as:

1. Words of Affirmation

2. Quality Time

3. Receiving Gifts

4. Acts of Service

5. Physical Touch

This "different ways of interpreting love and different ways of feeling loved" actually makes sense to me. It also explains why many couples struggle thinking that their relationships were loveless but only to discover that they have a different way of showing love.

I took the free assessment and it was validated that I feel most loved when I am given Quality Time and daily Affirmations.

Quality Time:

"In the vernacular of Quality Time, nothing says, “I love you,” like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there—with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby—makes your significant other feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed dates, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful."

Affirmation:

"Actions don’t always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, “I love you,” are important—hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten."

Recommend An Orphanage

My bestfriend Y and I are planning to throw a thanksgiving party for an orphanage this January 2012. 
Since she is based in Sinagpore, I'm like the 'project' lead of this event.
It has to be in Manila and preferably the kids should be old enough to participate in games (lets say below 10 years old)?


I'm still contemplating where. Any recommendations? 

Business Ideas

G and I are thinking of what business to start up here in Manila.

I've always been an entrepreneur at heart so I am thrilled with this.

I like the idea of creating something, visualizing a plan and implementing it. It excites me. 

What further excites me is the partnership I have with G; he is also into business.

We compliment each other which makes it extra special.

My ideas are always welcomed, and his ideas are always appreciated.

I like how we work. (hihi)

Survey: If you have X amount of money to be used for capital, what's a good small-scale (limited people involved) to start with? NO to franchise.
