Posts Tagged ‘birthday’

Isang is my niece. Her real name is Allyssa and she turned 7 last September 27. Her Mom who is my cousin prepared a party for her at Mc Donalds. Here are pics:

I didn’t plan any party for my birthday, so in able for me to enjoy it, I intentionally let other people know that yesterday was my birthday – for them to greet me of course

I wore red shirt, because most people would wear red on their birthday. I posted it on my plurk and received a lot of greetings, and same on all the tools I used online.

Here are some screenshots of the greetings I received:

There are also people who greeted me on Facebook and Friendster!

I almost forgot, there’s also some greetings on my mobile phone.

To all the people who greeted me (whether I mentioned you here or not – there are just too many), THANK YOU!

I guess I am not as bad as I thought I was … I do have haters, but with all these people that cares enough to greet me (some even greeted me more than once) … I could say, NOT BAD JUNELLE!

Last Saturday, I went to Manila for the WordCamp Philippines. My father woke me up an hour before I have set my clock to alarm, but I didn’t complain since I was really excited to be on the WordCamp.

Around 4:30 AM we arrived at the Iloilo Airport. My father just dropped me off gave me instructions and left. I waited for a few minutes before the airport opened. I fall in line together with other passengers. I have my Ticket and ID checked upon the entrance. Bags were scanned, shoes were taken off and a body search was done. After the check, I proceeded to an officer that gives out a boarding pass; I have shown my ticket and ID.

After I got the boarding pass, I went to the 3rd floor to pay for the terminal fee which costs Php 30.

There was again another check. I checked my boarding pass to see what gate would I be using to board the plane. Since I have still enough time to eat, I ate at JD.

I was so happy when I found out that I would be seated at the window side.

The flight arrived Manila 15 minutes earlier than scheduled, which was about 7:30 AM.

I went out to look for a Taxi and found a metered Taxi at the side of the Airport Exit at NAIA 3. The metered Taxi from the airport is expensive than the regular taxi, the starting meter for an airport taxi is Php 70 while the regular is only Php 40. But, the airport taxi’s are new and cool – it even had a receipt on its metering board.

The taxi dropped me off the first La Salle gate we found, yet it was the wrong one. Then the taxi driver told me, just walk it is just around the corner, and I did walk, but I already paid him Php 200 for the metered ride. Anyway, I again saw a La Salle gate but I was told, it was on the next gate. So again I proceeded to walk. Finally, at the third gate I have encountered the correct entrance for WordCamp Philippines. This was about 8:00 AM.

The event was really fulfilling, though I planned to have pics with more people, but my time was so limited. But the important thing is I have picture with the father of WordPress – Matt Mullenweg.

I wasn’t able to finish the event because of the fear that I might miss my flight home. I got nowhere to go. I left the venue 3:30 PM. I was at the airport early. I walked in, have my ticket and bag checked. Proceeded to get my boarding pass.

Paid the terminal fee which this time costs Php 200 and went to the gate designated for my flight.

I was able to arrive on the right gate by 4:30 PM.

My flight was delayed for an hour, so I had a lot of time walking back and forth in the airport. Here are my pics:

I arrive Iloilo 8:30 PM and I am scheduled to go to Guimaras. So my cousin drove me from the airport to Iloilo – Guimaras fort. From there, I paid the boat to immediately go the Guimaras so that I don’t have to wait for a long time.

Upon arriving at Guimaras, I took tricycle to go to Avila in where my Grandmother would celebrate her birthday. I arrived my Avila house by 9:30 PM.

I ate and slept. It was really a tiring day.

I woke up 8:30 AM and had my breakfast, then by 11:00 AM we had a mass to celebrate my Grandmothers 80th birthday.

It was nice to be with my family again in Guimaras.

We went back to Iloilo by 6:00 PM.

That was my weekend!

I always like to give gifts in a special way and I wanted it to be presentable. So, my cousin Bevelyn turned 24 last July 9, 2008. So, I gave her something to make her happy for that day. Oh, I told her to take some pictures for me to see how happy she was or how sad she was when she got the gift

This is the presentable gift box I created for her, I am not the one who made the box, but I was the one who chose and wrapped the ribbon around it. See it matched

New year, new look, new posts and new topic. I was wondering what to put on my first post; perhaps it would be better if I tell a story of my life.

Let me start, I was born January 30, 1982; which would make me 25 years old today – Happy Birthday to me HURAAAAH. Some would say that I was born with a silver spoon, perhaps it’s true, because when I was young, I often get what I want. Maybe that would explain why I am so demanding – am I?

I studied Preschool to High school at Assumption – Iloilo, and college at the University of San Agustin. I graduated Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering. At first I thought the course I took would give me a profession in where I could just sit in the computer and type all day long. Later, I found out that its mostly hardware that we are going to be working with, then I knew the course for me was supposed to be Computer Science – in which at first, I thought it’s a course for scientist. Well, it’s me… sometimes I do get kind of dumb.

After graduation, I can’t wait to have a job – hoping to work in an office, sit and type all day long; even if I am just hired as a computer secretary. I tried working in a call center – finished and passed the training period there, but the company is corrupt and therefore I decided to stop. The next job that came into my life is somewhat I call my Dream Job, sitting in a computer all day long and just type. I am grateful to have this job, because I could proudly say I got in this on my own.

It’s been more than a year that I have worked in this company. Met a lot of friends, got some enemies too. Its life, it’s normal to have those. My satisfaction with this company is enough to make me stay in here for long.

Love life, well I had a baby before I graduated college. I was never married, but my relationship with the father of my child made me comfortable and stronger in facing life’s challenges.

Likes… Fat men, why I like them? I had my first boyfriend when I was just 19 years old. He is a handsome fat guy. During our relationship I had a fling with another fat guy (just can’t get enough of fat guys). So I got caught, and both relationships ended. Since then, no one could catch my attention except for fat or big guys. I had another fat boyfriend, didn’t work out because he was so stupid. Then the father of my baby came into my life (he is of course fat), he seems nice at first but I found out he was such a playboy. Then another boyfriend (fat guy too) came, this time I know this guy loves me from head to toe. I don’t know what is wrong with me, but I was head over heels in love with him from the start, but the relationship got boring when he wanted me all to himself. Then I got back with the father of my baby that was the time we had our beautiful daughter. I can’t seem to accept his being playboy, so were better off as friends.

Seems to me I have explained almost everything about me in this post. I hope you would learn to understand me better with this blog.

Keep on visiting for an exciting adventure into my world.
