so tiring and so dizzy

just got home from work.... so tired... i only got 2hrs of decent sleep yesterday on our GA... blame it to the videoke machine... so tempting for my officemates who cant keep their singing prowess to blow out hehe...."guys let us sleep!" that was our crying piece (jhenn, mama lai, and i) we've been trying to sleep as soon as we arrived on the resort (8am)....

team breakfast @ something's fishy
arrival @ da Girl's room.

we managed to take a sleep... better to describe it as a unstable nap... upto 11am.... and since we just got headache in trying hard... SO HARD... to sleep, the 3 of us just decided to went down where the group is... and just eat so that we can sleep tummy-full (hehe)

sarap ng food!! yumyumyum!
tres marias

after eating... we decided to sleep again (for the nth time) but then the culprit videoke machine keeps on singing huwaaah!.... but due to extensive antok we all experiencing, we managed to sleep (deep sleep! success!) .... mga 2pm na rin yta yun.... then i woke up around 4pm.... i heard dada's voice kasi outside the room asking my officemate if iam already awake.... then upon seeing my dada hu just arrived (sumabay kasi sha sa mga ka-team nya in going to the resort) i got 2 bottles of mineral water... hehe! nice pasalubong from my dada hihi!

my friend jhenn and lailei also awake na... we decided not to go swimming, so lailei just took a bath.... sa bathroom na lang, while were waiting for our turn (jhenn and i) to use the bathroom we went out the room and move around the place... nakita ko si dada with his few teammates... so piksyur piksyur muna kaming dalawa :) ...

just enough time for me to finish my shower, 2 TC's went to our room to ask us to join the game (wawa jhenn di pa nakakaligo)..... huwaah! its raining pla.... naligo-ligo pa kami ni mama lai mababasa din pala ng ulan (buti pa si jhenn hehe!) the game was entertaining lalo na nung nanalo kami sa ika-3rd game hehe! thanks to sir marce for joining our team hehe!
yellow team(my team 9pm) VS red team (dada's team 5:30am)

we left the place around 7pm.... may pasok pa kasi ang 9pm shift..... grabeh i'm so dead tired that evening.... as soon as we arrived sa ofis, i immediately rushed to the comfort room... sobrang ihing ihi na ako at nasusuka... it feels like blood is running on to my head... thanks sa mcdo food and mama lai's chips which keeps me away sa kaantukan and vomiting-freak state ko dat night... i just throw-up thrice (buti naman... sayang yung kinain ko hehe)


haaay! dat was my soooo tiring yet quite fun day yesterday.... i want to blog more (believe me ders more to blog pa hehe! ang haba na ng post na ito partida hihi) but i am not feeling well... parang lalagnatin ako.... huwaaahh! wish ko lang wag, its our company's critical period (year long hehe! jaz joking)

the place where God planted me and let me grow

My Family: si papa, si mama, si ako, si corin at si rj
kuha yan kagabi... wla lang... sayang at wala si ate lhen, nasa bahay kasi ng mga in-laws nya... ako yung naka-white jan hehe! yan ang aking pamilya, da people i grew up with...

ang aking ama...
si Capt. Reynaldo Aurelio Colendres, super strict at snobbish hehe!.... dapat kung papadalhan mo sha ng invitation (mapa-wedding, birthday, baptismal invitation) it should be addressed as Capt. Reynaldo Colendres, he doesn't want to be called MR. Reynaldo Colendres... maarte eh... reason: "I worked hard for that status, I deserve it"... okay!..... I grew up not to be a "supeeeerrr Papa's girl" i assume, i only get things i deserve.... papa never spoiled any of his children.... not until baby corin came to the picture (she seems to change papa's character)... papa and i can talk almost everything, yung mga issue na sobrang hirap i-brought up (emotions and everything) we communicate thru letters na lang.... i received many letters from papa kasi di sha mashado showy sa kanyang emotions... thanks sa txt today dahil mas real-time ang mga message nya unlike before na 1week or more week old na... although super strict si papa, super good provider naman sha... kapag hindi kaya ng budget... "hayaan mo pag-iipunan natin" dialog nyan o di kaya "kelangan mo ba tlga nyan"... we are not a rich family... middle class lang, cguro lower than middle class pa nga (sub middle class?) enough na yung kumakain ng 3times a day at may panaka-nakang snacks on the side... di kami yung pamilyang kumakain sa mamahaling restaurant.... bonding moments namin ay yung matulog sa iisang kwarto, tipid na sa kuryente, sama-sama pa kami (i missed those days) ..... actually lumaki akong once or thrice a week at most lang nakikita ang papa ko but i never felt na napabayaan kami both financially at emotionally... although most of the times (graduation, birthdays) wla si papa, he always make you feel his presence... bakit ba inimbento ang phone?... simpleng tao lng si papa, sabi niya nga "di na ako umaasang yumaman, mapagtapos ko lng kayong lahat masaya na ako"... at shempre para mapasaya ang aking itay, nagtapos ako (B.S. Computer Science).... nung maliit ako sabi ko kay papa "....alam mo ba ikaw ang number one guy sa buhay ko, pag nagka-asawa ako, number 2 lang sha..." ang sabi ng papa ko "mas gus2 kong number 2 ako, ang asawa mo dapat ang number one kasi magiging katulong mo sha sa pagbuo ng iyong pamilya".... alam ko darating ang panahon na i'll meet my "number 1" at ang dada Jb ko na yun hehe! but then papa will always be the number 1 father in my world... life's lesson from my papa "matuto tayong makontento sa mga materyal na bagay na kayang ibigay sa atin ng mga taong nasa paligid natin, kung hindi ka makontento gumawa ka ng paraan para makamit mo ang bagay na gusto mo, wag mong iasa sa iba ang mga bagay na gusto mo para sa sarili mo" at shempre ang pinaka-isinasabuhay kong turo ng aking ama "Gawin mo lang ang mga bagay na kaya mong panindigan"...

ang aking ina....
si Maria Immaculada Concepcion Bernaldes Colendres, Connie for short... si mama, ang pinaka-caring na ina na nakilala ko (shempre nanay ko yan eh) though home making is not her forte.... money-making she excel best... businesswoman yta toh! sabi nga ni papa, si mama best partner nya (parang may ibang partner pa sha eh hehe! shempre mama na ang da best kasi un lang naman partner nya sa buhay) although 7yrs younger ang mama ko kay papa, she had show her best not only being a wife but being our mother.... mama is 21 yrs old when she got married... akalain mo with the age of 22 (same as my age) she's already raising her kid! i picture my mother as my wonderwoman... she always makes things easy for her children... she never lets me wash dishes, laundry clothes or even clean our house (but not my own room, i should clean my own room) for the simple reason that, "bata yan eh" (good for me... during those times)... papa always complaining to mama why didn't i get to know how to wash dishes or even cook rice.... huwwaahh! i remembered da time when we don't have any maid.... papa asked me to cook rice... at wala si ate sa bahay (ate lhen-my sister is the family's home maker, she enjoys all the task regarding house keeping) pucha, kabado ako to death dahil di ako marunong magsaing kahit gumamit ng rice cooker.... tinawagan ko pa ung friend ko para magtanong pano magsaing at pano gumamit ng rice cooker.... the heck! sobrang hiyang hiya ako.... at the age of 16 wala man lang akong alam gawin.... huwaaah! .... i never blaim my mama for not teaching me how to do home stuff... basta ang sabi nya "mag-aral ka lang mabuti at maghanap ng trabaho para gumanda ang buhay mo ng sa ganun maka-hire ka ng katulong na mangangalaga ng bahay mo".... kahit sabihin pang, mama is not like a typical mom who cooks food for her kids, laundry her kids clothes, clean the house.... i never thinked less about my mama... though she never does those things, she indeed make sure that i eat well, she always make sure that my clothes were washed, ironed and keeped well, she always make sure that i arrived and went home from skul well.... mama had been our school driver since when we don't have money to hire for a driver hehe! up to this moment si mama pa rin ang naghahatid at nagsusundo sa dalawang kapatid ko.... at minsan kapag morning shift ako 5:30am hinahatid nya ako sa ofis.... si mama, doctor mom yan.... never pa akong na-ospital due to fever... laging prepared sa mga gamot yan... sabihin mo lang kung anong masakit sayo alam niya ang igagamot sayo... i'm very much open sa mama ko, may mga bagay na di ko masabi sa papa ko na nasasabi ko sa mama ko harap harapan... compare kay papa, si mama ang madalas kong ka-argue pero i NEVER raised my voice on her... sasagot lang ako pero di pasigaw.... every morning kapag uuwi ako from the ofis (kung gising na sha) tsismisan galore kami nyan, tungkol sa mga aning aning na bagay... si mama ang taong, who showed soooo much trust on me.... corey joy will always be her mother's daughter...

si ate...
Helen Colendres Bermejo.... she got married 1 sem before her graduation, because she got pregnant hehe! buking! si ate ang mayordoma sa bahay... ewan ko ba kung ano ang meron sa kusina at gustong gusto nyang tumambay dun.... at ewan ko ba kung anong meron sa walis at basahan at gustong gusto nyang hawakan.... ate lhen is a typical housewife.... kahit nung maliliit pa kami, may pagka-motherly na yan, kaya nga i respect her as my old sister... nung maliit pa kami takot tlga ako kay ate kasi disciplinarian yan, 2nd mom ng bahay... kaya cguro di kami madalas mag-away nun kasi kahit 3 years lang ang age gap namin napaka-mature na niya... opposite kami ng ugali nyang ate ko eh... she loves to stay home, mag-ayos ayos, magluto luto while ako.... loves also to stay home to sleep hehe! i preferred to be busy outside... school, library at mall shempre (school days un) pero ngyon... loves ko pa ring stay at home.... sleeping pa rin pero minus malling at library na kasi i don't get my 10+ sleeping hours because of work... duh! my body is already getting used of 5-6hrs of sleep... very unlikely para sa akin (ako pa ba ito?) nways... i have a niece now... si julia rhienne, 3yrs old.... soooo kuliit at daldal....

si rj....
reycon jon colendres....my ever pasaway na utol... si rj ang madalas kong kaaway when we are younger, since matured na ako ngyon di ko na pinapatulan hehe! kahit to the highest level ang pagkapasaway ni rj... partner in crime ko yan pag dating sa sports... hindi kami madalas mag-away over da television nyan kasi we both enjoyed watching basketball, espn channel, solar sports channel.... when we are part of the taekwondo team ng LCC, favorite sparring partner ko yan kasi tutuhanang laban talga... i remember one day, nag-away kami sa bahay at nauwi sa sipaan haha! bugbugan tlga... wlang ate ate, wlang babae babae, wlang bata bata... maling ilag, sapol ka ng fying kick, side kick or 45kick hehe! ganyan kami mag-away dati bugbugan pero wlang sumbungan... tatanong na lang si mama, bkit ganyan itsura nyo... sabay sagot "nag-praktis lang kami" hahaa!

si bunso...
corheinne joyce colendres.... ako nag-pangalan jan! nagtampo pa nga si papa kasi gusto nyang name for corin is rheinne joyce (pronounce as "reney" joyce) kaso wla sha sa hospital nung tinatanong ng nurse ang name ng baby for registration, kaya sabi ni mama tawagan ko si papa to ask... then due to my naughtyness sabi ko kay mama "corheinne joyce daw sabi ni papa" haha! but then she got a nice name pa rin... i do that because i wanted us to be both "CJ" hehe! corin grew up to be the family's clown (shempre bunso) sabi nga ni mama, she looks like me nung ganun ako kaliit kaso very opposite ang ugali.... im a timid shy type kid (believe me dats true) before... and corin is super ma-PR na bata, entertainer ng mga bisita, makwento...she started going to skul at the age of 2... kasi she's da only one left at home, everyone is in skul... kaya today at the age of 6 she's already grade 2.... im very proud of my lil sister's achievement, first year nya sa skul (2yrs.old) we all doubt na matatapos niya ang schooling, too young pa nga daw sabi ni papa baka ma-bore kaagad.... but then she all surprised us kasi natapos nya ang nursery at 2nd honor! go to the next level kinder 1.... she graduated 1st honor.... then kinder 2, class valedictorian, and im the one who prepared the speech hehe! then grade1... 4th honor lang sha... she was soooo disappointed, sabi nung teacher nya, "na-politika kasi" we don't bothered to question the school eventhough one of her teachers give such statement.... lipat na lang kami ng school.... sa La Consolacion College-Caloocan, ang skul ni ate joy at kuya rj.... corin will be celebrating her 7th bday this september... will upload the pix at my flickr :)

I am my mother's daughter.....

Sitting here and thinking,
22 years have now gone by,
You have been by my side,
Every time I laughed and cried.

You were there to shelter me,
And to keep me from harms way,
You showed me right from wrong,
And knew exactly what to say.

When I made the wrong choices,
You never raised your hand,
Instead you talked and listened,
And you tried to understand.

You helped me fix my problems,
Without telling me what to do,
Imagine where Id be now,
If it hadn’t been for you!

You let me become who I am,
Without standing in my way,
You showed me love and guidance,
And helped me find my way.

I grew into a woman,
And I see who I’ve become,
I’m everything I am today,
Because you are my mama.



Thank you for you. I think that you are the most amazing woman I know, and would love to be just like you when Im your age. You have done an amazing job with everything, and deserve to be happy like no one else does. I am so proud of you, for everything you have done, for who you are, and for being strong. I love you.

the moments I spent with you are the moments where i thank GOD that I'm alive

i miss my dada so much... i work at graveyard shift which starts at 9pm up to 5:30am.... my dada's work starts at 5:30am to 2pm.... as i end my tiring day, he'll just begin his.... we see each other at the ofis, if he arrives early... the earliest is just today (he arrives at the ofis earlier around 4:53am) and misses the presence of each other if he arrived late...the super late arrival was yesterday (33mins late for work and i cannot wait for him dat long without doing something and just sit in the lobby, surely i would be able to sleep, tulo laway pa hahaha!)...

then i went home.... get online upto 10am... exchange emails wid my dada who's in the ofis (istorbo lang sa gawa nya) ... check friendster... check blog ko.... blog ng mga fwends... watch MYX top 10... then by 10am... knockout na...... zzzzzzzzzzzzhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! (don't disturb)

i usually woke up around 5:30pm... will call my dada who is already home by that time (should be!) make chika for 30mins.... exchange kwentos of his day and mine... then times up.... 6pm already.... prepare self to work ..... phone call to my dada around 7pm, make paalam kasi leaving home na punta ofis.....

dada sometimes already sleeping na when i arrived at work around 9:45pm... if he's still awake, i'll just receive an email from him asking if i already arrived from ofis... or sometimes i'll received txt message from him asking that.... then he will sleep since he needs to wake up at 3am to go to work....

dat was my dada's sked and mine.... and during our restdays... restday without "s" for 6weeks.... we will be working 6days a week for 6 weeks.... so the 1 restday per week is solely for our own self... no watching movie at pasyal muna... maybe, a fast dinner can still be done during that 6weeks... haay! so miss my honeyko :(

To my sexy and physically fit honeyko,

I could tell you i love you every hour of everyday until we die, but that still wouldn't be enough. I could hold you forever in my arms, never letting go and it still wouldn't be long enough. just being with you has made me happy, made me feel something for someone I have never felt before, I don't want to let you go and i don't want to ever hurt you. I would do anything for you even if it meant dying. If that day ever comes when we cant be together keep me in your heart ill stay there forever. no one not even you will realize how much i love you and how much you mean to mean. to me your the world, love you till nothing more is left forever.


Your equally sexy and physically fit babymo,
Corey ni Joy

what a wonderful way to explain it

A sick man turned to his doctor, as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said, "Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side." Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know." "You don't know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?" The doctor was holding the handle of the door; on the other side came a sound of scratching and whining, and as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness. Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice my dog? He's never been in this room before. He didn't know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear. I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one thing... I know my Master is there and that is enough."

May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.... "If dis is wer u want me to be; your will be done"

my one and only...


It took one look.And forever laid out in front of me. One smile and I died. Only to be revived by you. There i was thought i had everything figured out. Goes to show just how much i know 'bout the way life plays out...

I take one step away but i find myself coming back to you. My one and only, one and only you...







Now i know. That i know not a thing at all, xxcept the fact that i am yours and that you are mine They told me that this wouldn't be easy. And no, I'm not one to complain...
