Stressed. Will Travel.

It was last week when I received the bad news.

My previous boss in the Philippines, our Cluster Head, died.

He is so young.

I cannot believe it still as I can remember his posts in Facebook that he had moved in to a new house and was filing a petition to have his pets with him.

His death was so sudden.

I remembered those days when I was still working at Globe Telecom.

He is so full of ideas, strategies and the like.

I'd learned a lot from him.

Only God knows when our time on earth is up.

With that, I had realized that I should not waste my time and do what I had always wanted to do.

Save - Yes! I had started my spending journal and tries to cut out the "wants" and focus more on the "needs".

Photography Class - I had met my future instructor the other day and am looking forward to learn a lot more.

Travel - I am looking forward to travel a lot this year.

Our trip to Goa was amazing.

I came back rejuvenated, recharged, refreshed and with a new outlook in life.

To be honest, I was so closed at leaving my job hadn't I gone for vacation. Haha.

It was really stressful.

I haven't spoken to lots of irate customers in my entire career, only now, but I am trying to look at the brighter side.

Without my job, I won't be able to support my family and the business that we had just started; I won't be able to go to places and buy the stuffs that I need.

I was chatting with a friend of mine and we are planning to travel to South Korea come June.

This year, I will turn 30 and I would like to travel somewhere before my birthday.

Yesterday, I had received lots of alerts as well from a travel agency mentioning that there are lots of tour packages on promo right now.

A friend in Barcelona had offered that I can stay in their place should I go there.

Now, I just have to start saving up for the trip.

I know I have enough time.

Where will I be heading?

We'll see...

XoXo,

Joana

Suburgatory



Yay!

I found a new series to watch.

Suburgatory is about a daughter and her father who had moved to the suburbs after the dad found an unopened condom in his daughter's stuffs.

Thinking that the city is not that good for his teenage daughter, they had moved and settled in a new house which is way different from what they were used too.

It's so nice with all of the changes and challenges of being a newbie, trying to adapt to the new environment and stand out amongst the rest.

For sure, this series will be my company during my rest days.

XoXo,

Joana

Goodbye S. Goodbye B.

I was almost up to tears when I watched the last episode of Gossip Girl.

It has been part of my days off as I would watch the episodes while eating a bag of chips.

It's just so sad that it has come to an end but I love them still.

I love S. I love B. I love almost everyone on GG.

These are the photos from their last episode grabbed from CW Network's page.

B in her wedding gown.
 
B and Chuck saying their "I dos".

And the kiss!
 
Jenny is back!
As well as Eric!
Baby Chuck!

It's S and Lonely Boy's big day!

For sure, there'll be another series that I may like.

Actually, I am looking forward to the "Carrie Diaries".

Hope it'll start soon!

XoXo,

Joana
