woke up 10:30am, and by 11am, they arrived, with everything, inside the UPS freight container truck. as usual, my nephew Miko and Niece Jao-Jao greeted me with their smiles and hugs. i greeted my sister Jen too. we all ate first before hauling their stuff inside the house. they brought with them assosted things... from a bed, books ( i lke reading Miko's books, guinness world records, ripley's believe it or not etc.)
boxes of clothes, a drawer, an airconditioning unit, it's almost like a garage-on-the-move-sale.
i got my boss's nice text messages, grudging about my abscences and falling reliability. i texted her back that i do have my medical certificate stating 2-3days bedrest. so, moving on, i felt really, really sorry for my sister Jen and her kids.
this is the second time their father did this to them. the first time, it was almost four years ago, Miko was the only child back then. their father, Roger, was seeing someone, a girl of course, well, could have been worse if it was with a guy, or it could have been better, whatever...
unfortunately, they got back together and then, Jao-Jao was made.
four years after that particular situation, history repeated itself. i don't have to elaborate the whole story, honestly i'ts not important for me and i'm tired of it.
i do believe that ate Jen and Roger had their own reasons, i respect them, the bad thing is, how about their kids? did they gave themselves time to think? or even spared a moment to speak to each other and settled out their differences? i don't think so. if they had just done the things that i mentioned above... things should have been better.
life is actually easy, people are only making it complicated. arguments amplify a simple misunderstading. if only people know how to stand down their guards and swallow their pride for a bit... things will be over after a small, simple talk. simple, yet easy.
i remembered times when me and my wifey argue over the phone everyday, and it all started with a simple misunderstanding over our conversation. i dont want to step myself down because i know on that certain situation my reasoning is right, but on my wifey's side, she doesn't want to lose with her reason either, so it ends up, nobody won, were both losers. 3 days of silence for our relationship... i called her up 3 days after, threw away my pride, and said i'm sorry and i don't want to fight with her anymore, and i love her. after that, all went back to it's regular state, and as i told her, whenever arguments like this happens again, we have to talk over it first, calmly, without emotions. a simple solution for a complicated problem. after that, we seldom had that kind of argument again. if there will be one, i assure that it will be wiped clean on the same day. we're working on it up until there's virtually no more fights/arguments between us :D
communication is another important thing, for example if someone said "read between the lines", some people know that this is just a kind of saying or monicker, for others, they understood the phrase literally, and eventually will ask you, "what line?". and there is a kind that thinks both ways. the kind that everyone else should be.
it's already past 12am, i'm going to sleep, i'm definately go to work tomorrow. things accomplished this day... nothing important, i spent the whole day slacking, playing psp, reading and sleeping, i think 3 days of slacking got my boogie back on :D and tomorrow is my last day for work, so Oh! joy! Victory is Mine! spent most time reading online message boards on my mobile phone. i stumbled upon a thread, some guy doing custom made skins for almost everything you want to put a sticker in to. for 500bucks, you can create a personalized skin for your laptop, psp, cellphone etc. i made a simple freakin layout for my netbook's top part, a personalized logo "dp" on old english text, and an "asus logo at the leftmost part. i know i'm not that good at putoshop, but see, i've learned. still working on it, damn!
i'll test if html codes work on this kind of blog, i do hope so, anyways, i gotta go, big day tomorrow. ciao.
*testing, my proposed personalized sticker for my asus eee*
