Hi everyone

Hi while blog hoppin I saw this post generator page and thought it was fun. Below is an example of blog post I have generated from aussiebloggers' lazy bloggers post generator.


Geez! I just had a cup of tea and realized I have not updated this since I fell in love!... You would not believe how insane my life has become. Seriously!

I am hopped up on caffeine with discovering time doesn't stand still, just generally being asleep, dreaming and chancing to society in general, my day often feels wasted from crawling out of bed at 6.30 to whenever. I am so tired. life happens.

I make a solemn vow I will blog about it when I find my way home. Sincerest apologies. This is for our ever faithful, devoted public...

To all MOMs: Happy Mother's Day!




MOTHER

Her hands and arms softly cares
As she carries her baby
Hums a sweet song
As she lulls her child to sleep
These we muse about our moms

MALL: A Truly Exceptional Woman Artist

I am captivated by her whimsical artworks...the way she is rendering colors and brush strokes... Her great paintings remind me of my wonderful childhood... and I see myself as a child full of dreams wandering in a magical world every time I look at her works. Hmmn... I'm in love with her artworks! (obviously;) my post today is about M.A.LL). You must see her blog, and fall in love with her artworks too.



This is one of her artworks.

Nocturnally Prolific

Three Women by Pablo Picasso, Oil on canvas; 200 x 185 cm. This is one of the most important of Picasso's Cubist works. He made about seventy sketches and rough drafts for it.








Prologue

Autobiographical on the first few paragraphs but fictional nonetheless. The poet tries her skill on short story. So, the rest is purely fictional but the literary critic herself states this is also mostly psychological. Grins, Beams and Smiles. = )

Almost two decades (sixteen years ago to be exact) have passed by quickly. Days of grueling Math home works, T.H.E. trying to unleash the creative side of high school students, classes divided by walls that can be parted when needed, you have your own peer groups or "barkada." (Yes, I do have my barkada back then). Ours was the most diverse, I think. We were five in the group. Two were kinda boyish and the rest of us were classy damsels in the making. Sigh. Years I will never forget.

Well, to cut it short I was closer to the two like-minded girls. We remained friends even when we took different courses in college.

Last week we found time to have our group date. It was fun talking about what happened in each other's lives while having a delightful snack in our favorite cake house. Dana who was a beauty queen way back in college turned out to be a happy stage actress. She was the most friendly and sociable among the three of us. While Christine is a top executive of a prestigious marketing agency and my world revolves around charitable organizations I pioneered. We are still blessed singles.

Since I am the listener in the group what I am about to share might appear bias and subjective. I know batch 1995 comprise of independent singles and proud mothers in their respective budding families. I have a feeling majority of us are still singles. (Probably because we came from the only exclusive girl high school). That I have to prove. Hmmm, survey?!!!)

And when you belong to the female species and still single by late 20's and early 30's, guard yourself against the downpour of ridicule and "parinig" or side comments of the Filipino culture. (But that's another topic).

Anyway, back to the pretty damsels. Our topic revolved around Christine, who despite her being an executive is dumb when it comes to the heart department. (Look who's talking . . . hehe). Dana, who always attracts bees because of her amiable aura and enchanting personality kept telling Christine to detach herself from a close guy friend. "Stop agonizing yourself, will you?" an exasperated Dana blurted out. "Enjoy life. Go out and have fun! Don't just live within the four corners of your office on that gargantuan building where you work," the well-travelled stage actress said. "Well, I can't help it. What were those thoughtful notes he always left at my desk, those times of knowing glances, the days we were buddies on seminars . . ." "Let me point out to you he's exclusively dating someone that would eventually lead to a committed relationship." "But he still can find the time to ask how I am?" "That's a sign that he is just an amusing selfish charmer. Add to that he's a chronic liar. You do still hate dishonest guys, right?" "Well, ummm . . . but those are only white lies. I'm not perfect either. Even if I say I'm a very honest person. Somehow I've told little white lies myself." "Very true, we're only humans - infallible," the quietest said. " 'tin, are you hearing yourself? When a guy raises your hope basically because he's just showing his amore for you, do you analyze his efforts? Was he faking his actions and finally when he's on the verge of declaring his love for you, does he look you in the eye?," the carefree feminist asked. "Since when did you become such an expert on this topic?," gasped an enlightened gleaming Christine (but sounding more like she's on the brink of losing her temper with Dana). You see Dana eventhough a lot courted her haven't had a long-term relationship with any guy. She's just such a strongly opinionated feminist, the "Queen of Sweeping Generalizations." "What I'm trying to say is let him chase and pursue you. Show subtle hints but never ever be the one to proclaim your deep feelings." "Well, Dana they're both rational types. They tend to reason with love. When it comes to matters of the heart you don't rule your mind over it," the thinker uttered. "Oh dear, since when have you become a disillusioned dreamer?," the surprised melodic engaging voice of the actress asked. "I have my fair share of unreciprocated loves, that's all," I stated. "My dear girlfriends it looks like we're having a heated conversation here. How about if we attend a culinary workshop for baking since we are all fond of cakes and pastries," the calm and collected said. "Wow! That sounds a nice idea," the leader mumbled. "And maybe we could meet every Saturday or Sunday and attend a LSS," the energetic performer ranted. "We could also form our own "Give-Back-Love-Grateful-for-Everything" group to our community," I chided.
P.S. Forgive me my dear "barkada" in High School. I borrowed a part of our younger lives. Who's the writer in here, anyway? Smiles. = )

Habit

Everyday I see my reflection on the mirror and sunken eyes are staring back at me. I don’t know what happened to me. I feel like that I am no longer myself. My looks didn’t change except from the little darkness around my eyes. I do sleep well but I don’t know why I still have my ugly eye bags, probably due to depression. My friends usually tease me about taking drugs. Yes, maybe I am an addict, addicted to the past.

I miss my old self. Today, I’m trying to live like I used to be. I go to work as always, visit my friends often, and go shopping with my sister when I have the time. Nothing has change much to my life except myself. Only one person can exactly tell that something is bothering me and that person is you. Sadly, you are no longer here in my life to tell me that. No matter how much I want our friendship to last forever, it slowly drifts away like sands taken by the wind. It is true that the people who have already served their purpose in your life are often taken from you too soon. And now that you are gone, no friend will truly understand me like you do. How can I start living my life without you?

Yes, maybe you are a habit that is hard to break. I often pray to God for guidance as I teach myself on how to break this habit before my life will be taken away from me. You are right; life is too short to be wasted. I want to enjoy life like you used to tell me. Tomorrow I will let go of your memories to break free from this habit.


Change

Change is inevitable and constant. That is why many people resist it. They’re always afraid of the unknown and afraid of losing their comfort zones. To conquer this fear one must be open to all possibilities and must be willing to try something new. However, there is the notion that when you change something in your life, you must also change everything that comprises it. Obviously every action has a counterpart result. One should accept that consequences are always part of every action. It is only through acceptance that you can see the land of possibilities.

It’s never too late, you can start making changes in your life today! :)

Nice artwork!



...colors make our world seen in varied shades,
as a shower of flowers and its petals cascades...



Lovin’ the summer!

Summerpicture by lexi6496

We all love summer, colorful fabric, fancy sunglasses, sleek flip flops, icy glass coolers, sexy bikinis and the wonderful sea. Are you ready to beat the heat? Here are some cool-i-cious vacation tips to enjoy your summer:

*Plan your vacation trip at least one week before to get transpo and hotel reservations ready.

*Do not schedule your vacation in between your business trips to avoid rush and other business calls.

*Travel with a light and carry-all back pack. Bring only the essential items like travel documents (passport, ID, etc.), few clothes, camera, charger, your handy magic pouch (toothbrush, deodorant, sun block lotion, etc.).

*Make your vacation safe and worry free. Do not bring all your cash or credit cards with you when you go out and have a copy of your close friends’ numbers just in case of emergency others can inform them immediately.

*Just enjoy, eat, relax and have fun.

Moments with Him

Walkin' home . . . flashes of soundless lightning warns a downpour of rain after a very hot and humid day. It's past two hours before midnight and the nightsky is a deep purplish amber hue. Suddenly, she had an inkling instinctive nostalgic episodes of those unabashed naive moments with him. Wanna hold on to those brief scenes of sweet bliss.

Are You a Job Hopper?

jobspicture by pops66

Many people search for the right vocation and hope that they will find it to finally settle down. They endlessly seek for the job they really wanted and as a result they become a habitual job hopper. The good thing about being a job hopper is you become exposed to various workplaces. It may also teach you a lot of things particularly on interpersonal skills and other learning experiences of life.

However, the bad consequence of this is that you tend to waste your time instead of investing it in your career life. Another disadvantage of changing your job often is you do not earn much because you spend a lot of money while looking for a new job. On the other hand, some people have a counter argument about this. Job hopping will raise your salary offer. In this case, it always depends on the reason why you change your job.

It is quiet understandable to be a job hopper in your early career life because you are still finding your right vocation, but to make it a habit through the years of your life it is not good at all. It is fine to stay on your job for ten years and after that it is healthier to leave. But leaving after few months or a year? Whoa! You better be wise in choosing the right job. The choice is yours, be a job hopper or start building your long and lasting career.


"I have contacts"

Here is one of the funny stories I stumbled today...enjoy!

"A traffic policeman stops a woman and asks to see her driving licence.
'Lady, it says here that you should be wearing glasses when driving.'
Well,' replies the woman, 'I have contacts.'
'Lady, I don't care who you know, your still going to get a ticket."

Chagrin

Apollo's beckon
Left me to reckon
Whilst not leaving me
Chagrined as I can be

About Us



Welcome to WN!

WN started when...

The twenty-something naturally artistic Sachi always bubbly and happy to talk about her everyday-life experiences one day declared, "Why don't we blog?!" "Well, why not. It's about time!" responded Chasmal, her resolute thirty-something colleague. Almost seven months have passed when they first met at work and found out they have similar interests and likes. (Somewhere along the words above is another fave thing of the two).

In between the girly gibberish talk, they discovered their inclination towards the Arts. And as days, weeks and months pass by they only got more amazed with each other. Passion to read, blog, surf the net, research, write, open-mindedness in entrepreneurship, the innate desire to learn more in life either through higher studies and living in this so-called life binds them in sisterhood.

Their deep-rooted penchant for photography is complementary of their love to explore and travel the world.


As women of the new wave, let us take you in the vast expanse of embracing the world gracefully with the wit, charm and a heart of a woman!
