Khim's Thoughts 28: Happy 2013

Now that I am back to blogging, let me post an entry that should have been published last January for the New year.


Despite the struggle that I had with my business last December 2012, I still welcome the year 2013 with a positive vibes. Its' not easy to stand in the middle of despair, it's not easy to pretend that nothing happened but armed with faith, prayers, motivation and advices from friends and family members - I choose to stand up and move on. From this expereinced, I learend to prioritize things, delegate task, be on track with my schedule and be more organize. The most important lesson that I've gained is about HUMBLENESS and TRUSTING GOD'S PLAN whether it brings you pain and despair. It is from that expereince that I trust Him more, I lift everyhting to His hands and it is thourgh His presence that I have found comfort. I learned my lesson the hard way but I am still thankful because inspite of everyhting that happened there are still clients who trusted me, they still refer me to their friends and we still receive inquiries for coordination from time to time.


This 2013, I vowed to be more dedicated, passionate and more focus on my work. I know it's not yet too late to stand up and correct things. We're just starting and there's a lot of things to learn, I am positive that we will do better this year. As we start the year 2013 let me finished this post with a quote from Ellen Goodman, it says “We spend January 1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives... not looking for flaws, but for potential.” Happy 2013 Bloggers!!!

Meme's Lane 13: Missing Thursday Thunks

It's time for Unconscious Mutterings. Free association is described as a "psychonanalytic procedure in which a person is encouraged to give free rein to his or her thoughts and feelings, verbalizing whatever comes into the mind without monitoring its content." Over time, this technique is supposed to help bring forth repressed thoughts and feelings that the person can then work through to gain a better sense of self. That's an admirable goal, but for the purposes of this excercise, we're just hoping to have a little fun with the technique. Each week I'll post ten words to which you can respond to with the first thing that comes to mind. "Rules are, there are no rules." There are no right or wrong answers. Don't limit yourself to one word responses; just say everything that pops into your head. AND you don't have to have your words up on Sunday. Here's my share for this week

1. Schedule ::
Busy bee
2. Guest ::
will be a guest to my friend's wedding
3. Stall ::
food stall
4. Cold ::
drink a lot of fluids
5. Editorial ::
newspaper
6. Striped ::

7. Curtains ::

8. Cramping ::
not today
9. March ::
my birthday month
10. Folder ::
brown folder for my files

Khim's Thoughts 27: I'm Back, did you miss me?

It's been a while since I posted my last entry and I can really say that I miss the blogging world. I had all the time to blog last year when I resigned from my work. I was prepared to blog daily but then I become to occupied with a lot of things. I remember that days when blogging was my stress reliever. Whenever something bad happens, I will always open my blog and compose a new entry and before I knew it followers keep posting comments, advises and suggestions. Those are just the perks that you can get from your virtual friends. Virtual hugs, comfort and advises. It's never too late to return to the blogging world. I'll make sure that from this day forward, I will update this religiously :-)Don't forget to visit my blog and join me on my daily adventures.

Memes Lane 12

I missed answering these meme's. A lot of my friends are asking whats the purpose of each meme,don't worry guys to give you a brief explanation I included some description from their site for you to understand them more.

For today let me post first THE THURSDAY THINKS AND UNCONSCIOUS MUTTERINGS. I'll post my Friday Fill-in tommorow.



WHAT IS THURSDAY THUNKS? Thursday Thunks (TT) is a blog meme written by Berleen, Kimber & Bud - because really, they had nothing better to do with their Thursdays. It's for those who need a little kick in the butt to find something to post about. We picked Thursday because... well, it's an odd day. Thursday is odd, isn't it?

1. There is a song out there about you... it's on the radio, the video is on tv (just not MTV) and everybody in the world knows this song is about you. Who sings it? I'd pick Nina and Bruno Marz :-)

4. Have you ever sneaked..snuck...snucked...what is the right word? into a movie?nope

3. Déjà vu; meaning "already seen", is the experience of feeling sure that one has already witnessed or experienced a current situation, even though the exact circumstances of the previous encounter are uncertain and were perhaps imagined. Thoughts on what it is? Have you experienced it?
As for me it serve as a warning. I experienced it once, same situation, same persons, same question and same venue, the only thing that changes is my answer or how I react to the real situation. Because in my Déjà vu; I've done a not so good decision SO ON THE ACTUAL SITUATION I TRY TO PREVENT THAT from happening, instead I gave a different answered and the price for that particular scenario “I CLOSED 3 DEALS” Thank you for that Déjà vu.

2. Stick it to me, baby. What is the last bumper sticker you saw and why do you remember it?

10. Ever wonder what fish think about? How deep is this ocean?

8. If you could paint President Obama's fingernails any color, what would it be? Let's try white

7. Do you have seat covers on your car seats? What do they look like? none

6. For the rest of your life you can eat one spice and one spice only (on whatever food you want, of course), what spice do you choose? I'll choose basil

9. If you could slide down a rainbow, which side would you slide down? The top part

5. So a mom is suing her kids' preschool because it failed to prepare the child for the kindergarten entrance exam... did you eat paste in preschool? Nope..never!!!

Our Wedding Diary 42: Our Weding Vows

The original plan was not to make one but Ninong Chug said “If you are not going to make your personal vow, then when pa?”. I asked Roj if he wants to have a personal vow but he said he don’t know how to make one so better have an exchange of “I DO’s” na lang daw.

But things changed when we had our wedding counselling, Pastor Parulan told us to make one in order to make the event more special. We just agreed but I never did try to make a draft, not until the morning of my wedding day. You can even see it in our SDE that I was trying to make my wedding vows and it turned out to be one of the best thing that I ever compose. I keep of receiving a lot of text up to date informing me that that was one of the best wedding vow they have ever heard.

Roj, just search some samples from the internet and stumble upon a vow that perfectly suits the vow that he wants. Roj just can’t help but cry a bit during our vows. Buti na lang may dalang kodigo si Roj, kasi nung nagsismula sya umiyak ng konti daw nakakalimutan niya. After our exchange of vows, Pastor Parulan informed us that it is a good thing that we have a copy of our vows so if things go wrong we will always look back and be guided of the promise that we have for each other.
Allow me to share our wedding vows that makes our friends cry...



Khim: Roj, I thank God for this day because He provided a wonderful person to be my husband. He knew what I really wanted and what I really need. I’ve spent almost half of my life time taking good care of my siblings and family but then YOU came and suddenly SOMEONE TAKE GOOD CARE OF ME. I’ve spent almost half of my lifetime listening to other people’s problem and giving them advices but then YOU came and suddenly I HAVE A SHOULDER TO CRY ON.

Thank you for accepting me for what I am. Thank you for loving my family as your own. And lastly THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR FAITH, because through this we BECOME STRONGER!

I vow to be a good wife and prepare everything that you need every day. I vow to stand beside you in good times and especially in bad times. I will be your number one supporter in all your achievements and I will be your strength when you need extra push in times of trouble.

When we are old and our hair turns to gray, I promise that you will still be holding this very same hands that you are holding right now. And until my last breath, my last glance, my last sunshine, I promise never to let go of your hand, never to let go of our love, never to let go of you and never to let go of this marriage. This is my vow and I intend to keep this for the rest of my life. I love you mahal. I love you so much.

Roj: Ako po si Roj ay tinatanggap si Khim bilang maging aking asawa, my friend, my faithful partner and my love in the presence of God, our family and friends. I offer my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and especially in bad times, in joy as well as in sorrow.

I promise to support you in your goal, to honor you and respect you, to laugh with you and to cry with you, to love you unconditionally as long as we shall live. Till death do us part.
