Ms. Sleepyhead

I am not really a morning person. I remember when I was young my parents always scold me everyday coz I woke up very late and always late to go to school also. I'll always hear my parents loud voice every morning trying to wake me up. Sometimes I go to school without taking a bath coz it took me a long time to get up and move.

During my college days, I almost failed my Business Statistics subject coz I was always late attending the class. One time my instructress told me to drop or withdraw the subject if I can't really make it on time....but I did not did it. I don't want to have a messy TOR so I pursue taking the subject but in the end I got a butterfly grade on it...maybe my teacher felt pity for me that's why she let me passed.

I tried so many times waking up early but in the middle of the day I felt sleepy and once I'm sleepy..I will really go to sleep...that is my college days. I remember, Mama once told me that when time comes that I'll get married my husband might send me back to them coz of my morning problem and that is waking up late.

Today, I am married and working....I need to get up like around 4:30 in the morning coz my duty starts at 6AM. I have two alarm clock...when I heard the alarm I will turn it off and then the next thing I know, hubby was shaking the bed in order for me to get up or else he will put the noisy alarm clock near in my ear...I have no choice but to get up. I heard him complaining sometimes and once he complain I will tell him to send me back to my parents but he said that even Mama and Papa will not gonna take me back. He jokingly said that maybe Mama & Papa might tell him not to send me back to them. Well, I don't care..this is me and before I married him I told him already that I'm not a morning person and I'm lazy sometimes too...hehehe ( mag-antos sya).

Welcome to Mc Donald's, may I take ur life....I mean ur order?

Last Sunday night (3/23/08), I applied online at Mc Donald's fast food restaurant. I applied in some other companies too near in my place hoping that they will going to call me for an interview. Unfortunately, Monday morning (3/24/08) around 10:30AM, I got a call from a person named David...he said that he is a supervisor in Mc Donald's & asked me if I could come for an interview right away...without doubt I said yes...I mean I really am not interested for the job but having the opportunity to be interviewed can be a good experienced for me.

I arrived at the store around 11AM, since it is only a 3-4 mins. walk from my place. When I got there, I signed up another application form again for the company's copy, afterwards I took the assessment exam and again unfortunately I passed. The supervisor said that I got a very high score and then he asked if when I could start working...I was shocked....I mean really shocked..never thought they're going to hire me right away...coz you know back home we usually hear from the employer that they're just going to call us if we are hired or not...so, I was really expecting to hear those words from him....but anyway, I got hired and am not happy at all..I dunno... maybe because I'm not ready? But to think that I can earn money and will be able to help paying the utility bills and also I can help my family back home, I accepted the job wholeheartedly. And I was thinking too that this can be a good experienced for me also ( a stepping stone kumbaga).

So...Tuesday morning (3/25/08) I started my new daily routine. I was assigned at the counter to take order of course from the customers. Before, I thought that this kind of a job is too easy. I thought that even the retarded people can do this kind of job but I was all wrong...being in the counter is not easy at all...never been too easy! On my two and a half days as a trainee, I encountered two rude people. They got mad coz I can't catch up easily their order and I keep asking them of what was their order....coz u know they talked really fast and hey...English is not my first language, I am not that familiar of the food menu, I am still new in this kind of a job, I am still a trainee and they expect me to be perfect? What the hell, are they kidding me?

But anyway we, the people assigned in the counter our motto is “WELCOME TO MC DONALD'S, MAY I TAKE YOUR LIFE...I MEAN YOUR ORDER?" and this kind of greetings belongs to the rude people like those two that I've encountered. I admit, I shed a lil bit of tears coz I was lil bit hurt for what happened and I felt like I looked like stupid in front of those two customers but thanks to my two nice supervisor who comforted me, to my co-employee who encouraged me and keeps telling me that I've done a good job coz I never messed any orders yet. And most of all thanks to my beloved husband for his encouraging words and comfort. He told me not to take to heart of what those two rude people acting in front of me. He said, I can't please everybody and I should think that out of hundred nice customers I have served everyday there was only two who are rude and they can't mess up my feelings. Those two rude people can't affect me; in fact their rudeness taught me a good lesson. The lesson I learned from my experience today is that...for the bad things that happened? We should not only look for the negative side of it, instead look for the positive side as well. Their rudeness makes me stronger now and gave me more confidence in myself.

And this is all I can say to myself right now:

JIA YOU ROSE!
AJA AJA ROSE!
GO GO GO!

xie xie ni - thank you!

Alright..I was not posting an entry for a few days coz my life was so damn busy. Hubby and I did a general cleaning in the house that we bought, ya know. But today I got an opportunity to make another entry and xie xie ni to the few people who dropped by at my page weeeee...

To the people who are not Chinese, maybe they did not understand what is this word xie xie ni mean...I have mention once in my entry that I was addicted to Taiwanese drama, ayt? So because of this addiction, I learned few mandarin words..one of those is the word xie xie ni means thank you.

We oftentimes take for granted the words thank you. For instance, some people did something good to us or did a lil favor for us... we automatically say thank you but did we really mean it everytime we said it? I guess no... coz oftentimes we say thank you for the sake of saying it, ayt? The magic words thank you is a very powerful words..because of this words we can make friends easily.

So this time, I would like to take this opportunity to thank to the people whom I owed for.

Thank you/xie xie ni Ms. Anne S. of Texas for sending my school papers(important docs) to me. I really appreciate your kindness Inday Anne.

Thank you/xie xie ni Ateh Edz of Mnla, PI for lending me an amount of money. Salamat kaayo ateh...life-saver jud ka nako hehehe..

Thank you/xie xie ni to all my friends whom I treasured so much for letting me laugh, cry & for not leaving my side specially during the times that I was so down.

Thank you/xie xie ni to my loving family for their support and love to me and for their understanding of course.

Thank you/xie xie ni to my beloved husband whom I can't live without for his unconditional love, support, care, understanding and for the happy moments that we have shared.

Most specially thank you/ xie xie ni to our Almighty God for giving me those wonderful people I have mentioned above coz they are the people who made me happy, people whom I cared so much and people who will stand by me no matter what.

And to the readers, if there's any hehehe..xie xie ni!

good looks + big brain...

You Go For Brains!

You want a guy with a big... brain. And of course it would be nice if he were a total hottie, but you're not counting on it. What's on the inside is what counts for you. (Besides, you can always change the outside later!)

Do You Go For A Guy's Brains or Body?

First of all, thank you so much my dearest friend Anne S. for this tagay. I told her earlier that I don't have anything to post coz my brainy was out of words.

For the result above, I can say that the result is 100% correct. I know from the start that My David is a smart man the way he answered to my questions before. I remember that I had this report during my college days and there are some words that I did not understand, so I asked him if he could elaborate those words and if possible he could give me an example so I would understand better...My poor David, he really did his best and he was able to help me about my report...the ending? I passed my report and got a very good grade from this very terror instructor of mine. I am just too lucky to have David in my life coz I know that my boobs are much bigger than my brain..so with David in my side..I know I can survive in this cruel world. Charing!!!

Addiction!

Whoaaa..I got up very late today and I didn't able to cook breakfast for hubby before he went to work (my bad)....you know why I got up late today? well, it is because I stayed up late last night to feed my addiction. I'll tell you later what I got addicted into.

Do you know what addiction is? I'm sure everyone that are going to read this entry will understand what is this simple word...but even though you understand fully about this word, I'm still going to define it here...

What is Addiction?

Addiction - according to American Heritage Dictionary, it is a compulsive physiological and psychological need for a habit-forming substance; The condition of being habitually or compulsively occupied with or involved in something.

You know, there are different kinds of addiction, from drugs to interpersonal...some people got addicted to music, dancing, shows, smoking, drinking and many more..but as for me I got addicted into dramas. Yep, that's right! Last night I went to bed very late coz I was searching for a website that uploaded "They kiss again ep. 13" Taiwanese drama with english subtitle in it. Unfortunately, I found none. I looked into different websites like dailymotion, gofish, veoh, mysoju, crunchyroll, overstream and youtube but I was too unlucky coz there is no english subtitles for Ep. 13. Whoaaaaaaa...I went to bed feeling exhausted and my eyes was sore.

While laying in my bed thinking about my addiction in this drama, I feel so depressed coz I never been like this before, I swear!....I was thinking in learning mandarin so I would be able to understand the conversation in this drama but it is very difficult to learn other languages. Hayyy buhay! I'm just wishing that someone had a golden heart to continue uploading the drama with english subtitle so I would be able to understand it (keeping my fingers-crossed).

Jiayou Rose!

Happy Birthday Manang!!!

Today is my older sister's birthday...I texted her last nyt to greet her and she replied saying that I made her cry coz I was the first person who greet her happy birthday even if I'm too far from her. As a response to her text I replied that all I can do is to text her and greet her coz I can't be there for her birthday. I remember when I was still in Pinas, tapos birthday niya she did not prepare anything ky wa'y sapi...so what I did I went to Sr. Pedro and bought 2 lechon manok so we can celebrate her birthday. But when I asked her last night what she'd prepare for her birthday, she just said that maybe she will just go to Sto. Niño church para modagkot daw kay wa daw sila sapi. Waaaaaa kalooy pod woi. Anyway..I told her that I might send money for Papa's Birthday on the 25th of this month and then she can celebrate her birthday with Papa. Tingob nalang para usa ra ang gasto dbah? That's what we called being practical hehehe...

To Manang Arlyn, happy birthday again. Wishing you more birthdays to come and good health of course. And I miss you so much na...Bahala wala dada....just be thankful nalang that God has given you another year to live here and always pray that He will give you more & more years to live in this beautiful world.

I love you Manang!!!

The Owner

Hello again guys, how’s your day?

I’m in the mood to make a blog entry today for the reason that when I checked the weather channel website it says that today is a good day coz it is not cold and it is close to 70 degree temperature today..whoaaaaa I love it!

Anyway as my title today says “The Owner”...so, I’m gonna introduce myself as the owner of this blog. Well, you can call me Rose, that’s my nick. I’m not gonna mention my real name here for protection purposes (charing). I am 24 y/0 and happily married. My husband’s name is David. I love to play tetris online, scrabble, and got addicted also this CSI game…infact, I have finished solving the CSI 3 & 4 already. I love to watch korean & taiwanese dramas also. I’m not working yet, that’s why I have lots of time watching those dramas online. During summer I’ll go fishing with my hubby and have fun together or else we go camping and promise it is reeeeeeaaaaallllllyyyyyy fun.

I am a good daughter to my parents, a sweet aunt to my nephews and nieces and of course a loving & caring wifey to my hubby (char.com hehehe). I can be your good friend or be your worst enemy once you betray me. I hate betrayal coz I had experienced that twice already from my close friends in college. I can say that once you betray me, I will really forget our friendship.

I like people who are simple, humble, religious & with good sense of humor. I am just a simple person and already contented with what I have now.

I dislike people who are boastful. That’s it!

I guess that’s it for now peeps….see you next tym! muaaahhhh

The Title

I have been too eager to make a blog before. Lots of my friends has been encouraging me to make a blog but then I keep on telling them that I will but I really never did. I've been a member for a few months on this site but I really never made my first entry yet. Today when I woke up, I surfed some stuffs online and I'd able to passed the blog of one of the popular Taiwanese singer-actor and I was impressed of his blog..so, I decided to make my own. This first entry of mine is about the title of my blog. I use GreenRose as my title for the reason that Green is my favorite color and Rose is my nickname…so, I combined the two words to be one-word. Actually the word Greenrose has a special meaning to it. I heard before from my close friend that Greenrose means Everlasting love. But I'm not quite sure if it is true but it doesn’t matter anyway coz I believed her. That's why my yahoo messenger username is greenrose_4_dj means everlasting love for DJ.

That’s it for now, hope that my blog title make sense to you guys…till here and see you on my next entry..sayonara!
