Last week and just this Sunday.&lt;br /&gt;Both: I have to wake up early, not to stay home the whole day, I'm with people, go home a little late at night, get to bed physically tired and sleepy... thanking people your with for that great day. Waking up Monday morning filled with a wonderful memories, staying long in bed and still thinking how that Sunday was... then smile then reminisce again then sleep...hehe.. :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Last Sunday:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span style="color:#330099;"&gt;unforgetable...&lt;/span&gt; &lt;em&gt;Really...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Just this Sunday:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span style="color:#330099;"&gt;saya...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We went to Mayapa for an activity.&lt;br /&gt;I missed the group, I missed Fr. GC, I missed the feeling of kaba, saya, pagod of being a faci. Everything went well on the activity. :-)&lt;br /&gt;I missed dancing on the animation songs and laughing hard after the activity for our bloopers, the walang katapusang picture taking... as always&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After merienda, tawanan, at walang katapusan pagpaplano ano na gagawin namin, we then decided to go to Don Bosco Canlubang to attend the mass. Being in that place is really something, I even said and joked a friend with this lines "hayy this place, it started here and it ended here..." hehe... nakakatuwang pa rin bumalik sa lugar na yun. :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was also given a time to have a little kamustahan with Ron, then we went to the Grotto for some picture taking, then dahil dinner time na, we asked Ate Lolit on where to eat... saan? Sa TATLONG BUTAS... favorite place daw un ng mga seminarians at mga pari... umm... lahat kami naexcite kaya hala... sugod kami dun.&lt;br /&gt;Madalim at lubak-lubak ang daan, ang ingay namin sa loob ng van at naglolokohan na wala na ata kami sa Laguna dahil medyo malayo sya.&lt;br /&gt;Matapos ang road trip na yun, finally... narating namin ang Tatlong butas Resto.&lt;br /&gt;Bakit yun ang name? may 3 tindahan na magkakatabi na halos pare-pareho ng laki at itsura, imagine a foodcourt but karenderia style. at sympre, papahuli ba naman kami, sugod kami sa may videoke at halos na-occupy namin ang isang store...&lt;br /&gt;Imagine what happened next, hala papalit ng barya at pili ng kanta... concert na itoh! Song and dance ang gimik namin. Ang saya! Talented ang mga tao... tsk... :-) Lahat ata eh all out sa pagkanta at sayaw... kawawa si Jeff, ginawa naming concert king ng gabi.&lt;br /&gt;Di ko na namalayan nakailang 5 peso coins kami. Minalat din ata ako sa kakatawa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dahil napagod lahat sa concert, pagdating ng aming order na pansit (ang dami, fiesta!) at halo-halo, hala... deadma na sa videoke, background music na lang nami sya at lahat busy na kumain. Ilang songs pa bago umuwi, Hayy, napagod kami but ang saya ng gimik na yun. Ang daming video at picture, ebidensya! haha...&lt;br /&gt;Pagalis namin, sumumpa kaming hindi na babalik dahil sa aming ginawa...hahahah.... joke! masarap ang food at mura talaga.&lt;br /&gt;-----&lt;br /&gt;Well, salamat at maraming makabuluhang nangyayari sa dalawang Linggong nakalipas.  :-)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9372084-115497216229501651?l=karenkate.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/feeds/115497216229501651/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9372084&amp;postID=115497216229501651' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/115497216229501651'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/115497216229501651'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/2006/08/sunday.html' title='Sunday...'/><author><name>Kate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06440529893917201501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9372084.post-115307884879881634</id><published>2006-07-16T11:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-07-16T12:40:48.836-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Random...</title><content type='html'>I wish I can contain everything in this blog entry. Sa dami ng nangyayari sa buhay ko, hindi ko tuloy maumpisahan... hayy...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&gt;&gt; Me: &lt;/strong&gt;Yehey, I'm beginning to be okay. I really don't know why, sometimes I asked myself... Am I really okay? Or umiiwas or I'm just denying things... I don't know... really, but I'm happy that I'm surviving. :-) Yeah!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Salamat sa lahat ng umalalay. Sa dasal, sa pakikinig, sa payo at kung ano-ano pa. Salamat sa pressure sa work...hehe... salamat sa mga umunawa, at salamat sa mga hindi nagtanong ngunit nakinig at tinanggap. Salamat Papa God for always giving me a reason to smile, thank you po, I know you are with me all this time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm happy, I'm choosing to be happy for what happened... I still don't know the reason on why... but I'm thankful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Share ko lang: &lt;/em&gt;I've heard that when people get out of your life especially when you don't want to and you don't have any choice because they are gone, you don't have to be sad... besides the good memories those people left you, one better way is to acknowledge those good/positive traits those people have... then try to be like them, strive to learn those positive values, attitude, habits...etc they have.&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(o my... mahirap ata toh for me, pero try ko na rin... Read: this means being &lt;strong&gt;disciplined&lt;/strong&gt;, focus, objective, organized... waahh...hehe )&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I'll be gaining more from what happened, but to summarize it all for now, &lt;strong&gt;I'm thankful!&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;bow!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&gt;&gt; Work: &lt;/strong&gt;Hayy, I'm tired! I think all of us from the team. I hope... matapos na itoh! Pero I should be thankful, I still have a job!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&gt;&gt; Kit &amp; Airport Memory:&lt;/strong&gt; ... Finally, after a long time of waiting and preparations, Kit already left for Germany then from there he'll be on board and go around the world... hehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all did not slept that Friday night, @8pm inaannounce kc bigla na tuloy na flight nya Sat @ 9am. (&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;bad trip na agency, why are they doing this!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;) This means we have to be in the airport at 6am. Dami inasikaso. Have to run from office to SM to buy stuff for Kit. Thank God at nadaan sa charm&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt; *hehe*&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt; ung manager ng ACE, bcoz at exactly 9pm they are closed, good thing they still allow me to buy inside at nataranta ako sa dami ng nagassist at buti rin SM grocery is open until 10pm. Panic buying... sa dami nang pieces  per item. OA ko nga daw sabi ng nanay ko at ni Kit, hala.. baka wala sya gamitin sa barko noh at walang mabilhan. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;(comedy talaga ang gabing yun)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can still remember how handsome my bro that day, wearing blue long sleeves, with neck tie and khaki slacks... kagalang-galang for the 1st time. :-) How can I forget this airport memory our family had, hayy...  The hugs, the crying that even my bubwits did. Looking Kit walking towards the airport entrance. Hugging Kit's gf, then recently his GF told me that Kit started crying when he saw me hugging her, at hagulgol daw sya sa loob ng airport. 1 year din sya dun. Hayy, I always pray for Kit, I know naman na kaya nya, wag lang sana sya masyado malungkot dun. I'm so proud of him and he gave me a lot of reason to be thankful to Papa God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In everything... try to be thankful and you'll see the miracles in it.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Hope I can post some thoughts ulit sometime... hehe... muah&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9372084-115307884879881634?l=karenkate.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/feeds/115307884879881634/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9372084&amp;postID=115307884879881634' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/115307884879881634'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/115307884879881634'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/2006/07/random.html' title='Random...'/><author><name>Kate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06440529893917201501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9372084.post-115214056039479503</id><published>2006-07-05T16:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-07-05T16:02:40.413-07:00</updated><title type='text'>waah</title><content type='html'>wala me maisip na title... gusto ko lang sumigaw! waahhhh.... pwede naman dito diba? hehe&lt;br /&gt;Next tym na ung matinong post.

Started on Monday with a friend with unplanned topic of my dilema on a situation and making me realize pratical approach on my situation then later that evening till AM with a good friend again, this time pinagagalitan me about a situation.. aww..pero in some ways nakakatuwa kc ibig sabihin concern lang talaga sya sa akin.. nagulat lang me bcoz that's the first time we talk like that. Tuesday, another two.. one of the concern person and one is the a good friend from college. wednesday.. another again... another concern person again.. aww... all on the phone but not just the usual kwentuhan and update thing.. those talks makes me think on different situation.. ang gulo noh.. kc naguguluhan din ako.. I have a lot in here.. information overload na ata..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday night - got a txt from ate maye asking if I had a landline to call. Said I was still in the ofc and gave my office #. After 5 mins, phone rings...&lt;br /&gt;Usual kamustahan from the bora trip then after a while, she explains to me sumthing bout an activity. I was just listening.. then she ask me if I can be a facilitator of the said event, said yes.. ask on when, di pa daw sure.. said Okay..then she said that part of the program was a talk regarding a relationship then asked me if I can be the speaker... Initial reaction... "Ako!?? As in ako talaga??!!??, ate naman c Kate po ito, baka nagkakamali kayo.. bakit naman me??" sagot ni ate Maye.. "ikaw unang pumasok sa isip namin eh, tapos sinabi ko na sya sa head ng program committe..approved na". At the back of my mind.. bakit naman ako.. ang dami naman iba.. gusto kong magturo ng ibang pangalan.. pero di me makareact ke ate maye.. kasabay kc ng pagsasalita nya at pagcoconvince.. dami ko na iniisip.. kung paano at ano ang sasabihin ko... Then I just said YES, why? Told myself na kaya ko toh, na I cannot compare myself sa iba para lang di ako ung mapunta sa ganun situation, that maybe there's a reason, they trusted and believe na kaya ko, then cguro nga, me reason.... un nga lang.. mahirap.. ang hirap halukayin ung mga bagay na ayaw mo nang alalahain.. un unang pumasok sa isip ko...&lt;br /&gt;Di ko pa sya masyadong pinoproblema that night.. pero I called a friend saying na I'll be a speaker.. naalaska pa tuloy ako..hehe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wednesday - while Gail and I are on starbucks (naloka kc kami kaya we go there to have some coffee.. money?? from bangenge..hehe) got a txt from Ate Maye, there will be a miting @ 6:15PM @ DB pugad cafe. Naloka me, house namin ang nakaassign.. so dapat maaga din kami to arrange the venue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Arrived early @ DB, got chance to light some candles and say short prayers to the Sacred Heart.. regarding the person that I talked that day..praying that he'll do fine palagi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meeting - with Luis (the Rector of the Retreat and head of the youth group that will arrange the program), Ate Olive, Ate Maye..then got a txt from ate Avic, pumanik kami ni Ate Olive to arrange the venue and the sound system.. good thing dumating c Kuya Jong to help.

Ü. Thank God for a 'unusual and unexpected' text message that makes me a little awake and uneasy coz I usually and should have spent my Sunday afternoon sleeping but I just choose to divert my attention and not affected by it and that person .. thus alas.. get my butt off my bed and started looking at my room and on where to start. I know I cannot finish cleaning and organizing all my stuff in a day..I started into this part of my room where a cabinet is placed and all magazines and some papers on a bags and folders are placed. I take off all the bags and folders and scan on it to see which I should put into trash and in my surprise, I forgot that all those are my print-outs on moving on, letting go, etc on hearts and healing articles and from femalenetwork forum. I browse on few and read.. ummm.. initial reactions.. It pops in me the memory how I used to have all those articles stuck into my head.. understand it word by word and put it in me, every meaning and concept of it.. don't get me wrong but really books and articles really helps you to feel better during the moment of reading it, gives you idea and makes you feel and realize it whenever you remember that you read it. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;But experience is still the best teacher.. everything happens for a reason.. to teach you and to shape you&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. now this words are really true. Ü&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love reading self-help book, just last week..after a long..long time.. I finally finish reading Tuesdays with Morrie (yipee. me natapos din me na book Ü, coz I used to read book then after sometime, get another and read then forgot the first one.. hehe) It's a very good book, an old man on the dying bed saying life's lession.Love that book, it is presented simple but so heart-warming. I read from Jim Paredes blog archives that he has he's books too.. looking forward on having it. I love books dealing with life in general, also more on pyscho-spiritual.. no more on that heart-ache survival thing.. hahahah..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Talking with friends and listening to their advice (unending and di cla nagsasawa noon.. love nila me noh?..hehe) during those times help too. But they always say that, I'm the only one who can help myself .. now I realize that &lt;em&gt;good self-talk and prayers&lt;/em&gt; are very much important... being-friends and loving your-self in the process... aww.. &lt;strong&gt;Love-yourself&lt;/strong&gt;.. I remember gailey with this words and advice.. :-) Well she's one you have this on her and really a strong gurl.. idol.. hehe. Going back on Loving Urself thing.. you may see it easy.. coz you can always and will always have yourself.. but gosh, for me it was hard.. at first.. but now, i'm happy and managing to give my self..slowly the love I deserve from me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the ending of it.. put all those papers at a big plastic bag.. thank those person who wrote and share it. My friends who send emails to me and chats that I print.. (wahh.. see how pathetic I am before..hahahhah... ) and prayed that someone can use it... to recycle??... and put it on trash later that night.&lt;br /&gt;---------------------&lt;br /&gt;P.S.&lt;br /&gt;ayy.. naku..nakakaaddict pala tong blog na toh.

A lot of things to share after the holiday but still i did not manage to get my fingers to type here..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2004 was an unforgettable year for me. That year I know and can honestly tell that my life and self falls deep on ka-dramahan. That year, I lost someone from mylife, cried a river, been pathetic.. ayy.. but the old cliche is still true, when God's closes the door he opens a window.. a lot of windows to tell you.. Ü I got a lot of new friends and activities as I've been busy with the community, friends and family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't want to talk about the bad things that happened to me but I don't deny it.. I just have on me the good things and blessings after all that has happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm not good on writing and articulating my thoughts.. but this is something that came from my heart.. &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;God is so good... really and all the time&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. Ü I can never really explain on how and why I'm currently in this situation and feeling this way, I just believe that God has something to do with it. I'm not totally healed and moved-on (waahhh.. ) but I survived and definitely will.. o diba.. hehe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have a lot to be thankful for my life.. those people who been there during those bad times and would you believe that now I &lt;strong&gt;appreciate&lt;/strong&gt; my LIFE, those I been through, my family, my close and good friends and even those I don't know but will need our care and help &lt;strong&gt;more than ever&lt;/strong&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now I believe on &lt;strong&gt;I CHOOSE to BE HAPPY&lt;/strong&gt; phase.. hahahha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;umm.. ang saya-saya.. hehehheheheh muah&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9372084-110604117442594172?l=karenkate.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/feeds/110604117442594172/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9372084&amp;postID=110604117442594172' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/110604117442594172'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/110604117442594172'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/2005/01/back-online-some-updates.html' title='back online &amp; some updates'/><author><name>Kate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06440529893917201501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9372084.post-110311130027668902</id><published>2004-12-15T01:51:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2004-12-15T03:48:20.276-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Red Dress</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Thank God na natapos ng maayos lahat ng mga activities last week.

Special thanks to Jory and Gailey for 'forcing' me to buy &amp; wear it. hahaha.. you know what it's my first time to wear a dress and mind you, a little sexy dress. Ang sarap ng feeling that you feel so sexy and beautiful even for a few hours (thanks to Azi &amp;amp; MAC for the free makeup &amp; to Alan of Piandre for the discounted hair coloring and free haircut and style) ohh diba, complete makeover. Buti na lang nakisama ung malaki kong tyan at di sya nagbloat.. Ü nagutom nga lang ako..hehe.

What take it sooo long to do it?? Maybe because I'm too shy of having others knowing my thoughts and feelings..maybe bcoz I'm not really good in sharing some of it and acticulate that feeling especially in writings.. well well well.. now &lt;strong&gt;HERE is IT!!&lt;/strong&gt; why?? not bcoz I'm bored, alone in the office and its raining outside and also not just for others to know me.. but for me to KNOW MYSELF even better... to archive those emotions, opinions, events, those silly and non-sense thoughts..hehe .. that I can read again and remember the memories in the future.. laugh at it or maybe cry again with it... :-)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;This is me.. knowing me... a lot of sharings and stories.. a lot of those feelings...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9372084-110171004613609253?l=karenkate.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/feeds/110171004613609253/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=9372084&amp;postID=110171004613609253' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/110171004613609253'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9372084/posts/default/110171004613609253'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://karenkate.blogspot.com/2004/11/my-first-blog-post.html' title='My First Blog Post'/><author><name>Kate</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06440529893917201501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
