Age ain't nothin' but a number.....

I have witnessed yet another birthday celebration of one my closest friend Jam last Thursday night. I was surprised at how successful the celebration was, but I always knew it would be a hit. Friends old and new showed up in full support.

Compared to Jam’s celebration last year, this one definitely rocks them all. While all of the celebration I have attended this time of the year, it is no exaggeration to say that I have enjoyed this one the most as much as I would have to think everyone does, although it consumed all of our energy so much as we left the venue feeling exhausted afterwards.

Nevertheless, it is not about the celebration, it is about gathering the people all together that made the celebration worth remembering.

To Jam, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! We love you sistah....

P.S. Pictures will follow momentarily….

All of a sudden I missed everyone....










































































I know that I have been fighting an uphill battle between myself and my blog, but it seem like I couldn’t just leave this blogging thing behind. Notwithstanding the super hectic schedule I have all day of the week, but here I am again trying to update ya’ll about anything interesting that has happened during my absence. With more and more interesting things these time along. I still believe that there is some light at the end of the tunnel, and if this trend keeps up, then I’m gonna be writing and writing and writing for ya’ll once again.

Writing would become much easier for me should there be interesting topic to write about, if there is more to talk about not to mention if I’m in the mood to write.

In the midst of all this however, I would like to point out that I am still here, that I survive the battle. Although sometimes, I have some low moments, and I believe everyone does feel the same way I feel at some point in their lives, not just me. But I always think that I am still fortunate for having lots of friends who listen and whom I could confide with. Many times I felt like people have put me down and talk behind my back, all the time. Like I say, I can live with that and I forgive them. Bottom line is I win. I always think that life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets and full of hatred in their hearts.

Right now, I’m moving on. I’m on the healing process, trying to leave behind all the bad memories, all the chaotic situation I was into, that has apparently become an obvious reason of my absence in the blogosphere for one.

I am trying to act responsibly and capably in taking care of myself. I have realized along the way, that I LOVE ME, a whole bunch.

Anyway, during my absence things somehow changed a bit that I missed a lot of things to write as well. Here are the lists in random order that I was supposed to write about in here that I just couldn’t do it;

Leaving E&Y
Missin’ family back home in the PI
My new job at ANBinvest
My PTJ
Matt’s European Tour
Jam’s return with a bang
Poch’s silent return
Mark’s weekend visit in Riyadh
Elena’s comeback picture – secret mode
Anita’s bday celebration
On again, off again relationship of Mark and Jun
RL’s improved cooking skills
Working overtime
Rey – 5 five years in the making – a long lost friend
Chin’s new guy
Anita’s new guy
A new found friend – The getting to know each other stage
RL’s silent-bday
Enrol a class on PC hardware assembly & MS Access at COMSOFIL
Jaleesa at the World Youth Day ’08 in Sydney meeting the “Green Pope”
Marvin’s eventual return
Britney Spears epic meltdown and role as a mom
Justin Timberlake bares it all at “The love Guru” movie

And finally, the scariest part of it all, although I have anticipatingly waited for this to happen is RL’s exit to the PI…it still scare the emotions out of me, I felt like I’m gonna be alone for the rest of my stay here in the Kingdom….gosssh, my mind is wandering right now!!!Then I refer u to no. 13…harharhar!!!

Here I Am...

This has been my second post since my self-declared hiatus. As promised here I am trying to put my thoughts in writing once again. In fact, just recently I received a comment from Ate Neng at my friendster account saying that it’s ok to write and let your heart out. Which is absolutely true somehow; it eases whatever it is that you’re carrying inside like an excess baggage or something that you have been trying to let go of.

Today and the past week had been a super busy week for me. There’s a lot of stuff to do at the office. Btw, I am connected with Arab National Bank - Invest right now. This has been my last job after Ernst & Young. I left EY because of so many reasons I’d rather keep it to myself. But so far, I’m happy with where I am at right now. Hopefully I’d be able continuously work with good people at my current job. I’m not actually looking for stability or something; I just wanted to work and earn a living, that’s it.

It’s been a month and a half already since I started working with ANB-Invest. So far it has been a good month for me. The people I worked with had been seeing my potential already. My boss is more than ok. He’s the kind of boss where we secretaries would call as autocratic/democratic kind of boss. He let you do your thing at times and he commands most of the time. Well, he is the boss like he can do whatever he wants, and I totally respect that. I’m telling you, I’m gonna have a good working relationship with him.

This week, I created 3 presentations for the department. The last one I made was presented days ago for the CMA and so far the feedback was good. Honestly, I feel proud of myself because I didn’t realize I could actually make a presentation like that. Well, being the resourceful person that I am, I would easily find ways to make the presentation presentable. Although, there are some minor problems during the day of the presentation because of the many changes they made and we are running out of time. But it’s all good. The presentation went well. That is the most important thing, anyway.

Having said all of that, I really hope I’d be able to showcase what I’ve got in my whole stay with ANB-Invest. Wish me luck ppl!

So here I am once again!

XoXo,

B
