It's March already. Time, indeed, flies.

Basta ang Mahalaga, Ngayon, Kasama Kita.
Curious? Read on. c",)

I woke up this morning, from a sleep undepeened by all sorts of thoughts circling through this brain of mine. (yes kuya, I do have one! haha!). Expectedly, inasmuch as I needed more sleep, I couldn't anymore. So I checked my mobile, hoping that my inbox would be teeming with new messages as it used to, only to find out I have none. Surprise, surprise! I really have to get myself used to that.

And so i laid back and tried reviewing the week that passed.

One of my teammates, Mishy (ok, i'm giving out her name, she wouldn't be reading this anyway.), will be leaving the team for a couple of weeks for a different project. And somehow, with her being one of the closest buddies I have there, I feel as if I rank second or third among those who are going to be affected the most.

I always tell her that I have a fear of giving myself out too much, and letting myself be emotionally attached to a person whom I know would be leaving soon anyway. I guess that's how melancholics are, always looking beyond and trying to come up with an immediate action plan to save themselves from more struggles in the end. Always too careful to that extent where they prevent themselves already from enjoying what they have now because they're afraid to get hurt.

And so, with this, Mishy rebutted, "Paki ko kung mawawala ka.. basta ang mahalaga, ngayon, kasama kita.." Uhuh, a little bit too makata and mushy, and it wont hurt to say that we had a good laugh after she said those lines, but it did make an impact at that particular time.. until now, actually.

You see, I won't be staying long in this company I'm working in right now, it's no secret anyway. I'd be resigning before classes start in June. But if I spend the next few months trying to keep my work relationships just at a professional level and not get too personal so that it won't be hard for me to leave them in the end, then I probably would have even more regrets. Right? Bear with me, this is the first time I experience this world out here, and somehow, most of the time I find myself still adjusting, and still lost. But hey, one thing I'm sure, God puts in certain people in our lives at certain points for a reason and the best we can do is not let these reasons be taken for granted. More importantly, I'm sure He wants me to just enjoy and learn from every moment of what I have, and where I am, now.

So hey, Mishy, even though you probably won't get to read this anyway, thanks for the mushy word of advice. You don't know the impact it had on me. :)

PDL Campaign Starts.
The Forty days of Purpose campaign, inspired by Rick Warren's Purpose Driven Life started off in our church, along with other Christian churches, yesterday. It was off to a very inspiring start, and for me, I'm sure it'll be one good way to culminate the spiritual dryness I've had for the past few weeks.

And to make the event even sweeter, I thank God for allowing that this one person really close to my heart joins the PDL campaign with me as well.

Plugs.
I have this Last Song Syndrome blog I've had for months now. I've neglected it for quite a while but now, inspired by her, I'm going to open it up for comments and stuff like that. You might wanna visit it.. ;)

Lastly..
I have a date tonight. A set-up one, which I'm going to do because a friend asked me to, and because it's supposed to be a trade off (She's doing me some sort of a favor). It ain't such a big deal. Just some coffee before my shift starts. Well, at least I get to have a ride to work. Yeah, I'm really excited now (sarcasm full blast!). Oh well. All for a good cause.

So there.
