4. One Hello (Randy Crawford)
5. Heart Of Mine

Move On, Move Up!

Despite all the hearsay and issues encountered at work, now I am gathering all the broken pieces of me, wanting to move out from the feeling and move on with life. I have come to accept the fact that you can't really please anybody. So what? I have not existed to please anyone too. For now, all I want is to move along, do what is ought to be done, take all the challenges set, and strive to bring out the best in me.

The Double Stealing Meme

Welcome back to Sunday Stealing. Sunday Stealing originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme. Let's go!

Today we ripped this meme off from two different blogs. For the first time since we have syndicated Sunday Stealing we have stolen two memes today. (During its exclusive run for its first two years on WTIT: The Blog, Bud did this many times.) Our first five questions were ripped from a blogger and blog named Pikohan (avatar above). Pikohan explains that she was tagged to do the meme by Lilly Flower and Koretetsu. Our second meme has 11 phrases for you to complete. It was stolen from Stacie at her blog Stacie’s Madness. She does not explain where she got it. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft's thieves might take some time. Link back to us at Sunday Stealing!

Cheers to all us thieves!

Wedding Bell Blues

Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme!

Work Life is On Its LOW Ride!

I was a bit disappointed lately with work. The unit where I belong to is on the "hot seat" recently, meaning everything we do has been monitored and is given much attention to. What is painful is that we are groomed to work on the ideal when all we did is to be careful with what we did and uphold a safe practice in our profession. Lately, we have been the "talk-of-the-institution" and we now do feel insecure, unprotected, and neglected. Being a staff in our unit is not an easy task. What meant to be "in there" is different. It really takes one hell of a courage to be able to survive and experience what is really meant to be there! Kung alam nyo lang...

On Trial

It was like facing a trial having been interrogated by the Selection, Placement and Promotion Board the other day while I got that chance to be interviewed by them. My nervousness got into my nerves but later was able to cope up with it. I thought all the while that super difficult questions will be thrown, however, the interview did turn out right. At least I did not have a hard time answering them unlike some of my friends who felt it was the hardest part having been interviewed. Personally, it's all up to them if they'd consider me or not to the said position. At least I was able to impart what stuffs are to be improved and what issues should be given attention to.

Unprepared ME

I am a bit nervous of this upcoming ordeal cos I knew a lot of issues will be raised. I just hope I could find the right answers and I hope it would generally turned out right.
