Merry Christmas!
Last minute shopping, running errands for Mom, finishing wrapping gifts, chopping up vegetables, frying eggrolls, cooking yummy food, taking a quick nap… …. ohhhh, sleep. Woke up, got ready, took some Christmas photos with my wonderful family (Mom, Dad and brother makes four!), loaded the car with food + presents, off to Church we went for Christmas mass… …. blessed be...

My voice is in in full sick-sound mode… even though I’m not really sick anymore. Just the dry cough (ick!) and the sort of sore throat I have due to the coughing. Fun stuff.

Pho.
Today, I had Pho for lunch with my lovely favorite female cousins, who I’m so happy to be blessed with. Growing up with them, I’ve considered them more like sisters than cousins, if anything — especially because of the fact that their Moms & my Mom are sisters. I’ve grown to realize that no matter what problems arise with us, in the end, we are all blood and we come...

Reason #38282 why I know he loves me.
Because after taking my countless (word) beatings, putting up with my snotty, prick-like, douchey bitch attitude and listening to me complain about my stupid cold and everything else that’s pissing me off about life, he still calls me to see how I’m doing, makes sure I see the positive in it all and still says “love you” after every call. Now, that, my friends, is a man;...

It's already 3pm?
A spontaneous eventful night last night. Woke up this morning with a headache, a windchill making Winnipeg feel like -40c, and my Blackberry being blown up by my Bosslady. Tomorrow, I’m in meetings all day. Tuesday & Thursday I’m in the studio. Friday is our staff Christmas party. Then two weeks until Christmas. Eeps. Time is moving too fast for me these days. & I just...

Me: No, it's okay.

From one of my favorite movies, Love Jones:
Nina Mosley :
You always want what you want when you want it.
Why is everything so urgent with you?
Darius Lovehall :
Let me tell you somethin’. This here, right now, at this very moment,
is all that matters to me. I love you. That’s urgent like a motherfucker.

11 Things Every Woman Deserves in Life
I received this in an e-mail, and although I don’t know who originally wrote it, I give them all the kudos. This is so true, and I hope that if you’re a woman like myself, you have all these things that you deserve. 1. A friend who takes your side and has the guts to tell you when you’re wrong. 2. One item of clothing that instantly makes you feel twice as beautiful and half as...

Moving.
There are two parts to me moving away from Winnipeg. One part of me is absolutely terrified, scared to my wits and sad & the other part of me is bursting at the seams, so happy and so brilliantly excited. Winnipeg has been my home for the last 25 years. This is the place where my Aunt saved all her money and immigrated from Philippines to. The place where my parents met, and my Mom spent 28...

Thankful Thursday.
Blackberry. Google Reader. Glee. Auto shop across the street from my place that finished doing my car in a day, when the estimate was suppose to be two weeks. Green seedless grapes & strawberries. Sunny days in Winnipeg which make it bearable to go in the -30c cold. Down-filled winter jackets. Earl Grey Tea. Two creams. Two Twin sugars. Love. My Mom who always surprises me with her...

She told me.
After being asked to burn some music on cd's:
--
Bosslady: So, what do you want for payment, then? What would you like? How much?
Me: Nothing! It's no worries. It's only a few, not like a thousand that you want.
Bosslady: Tell you what, I'll buy you a huge drink at our Christmas party
Me: No, no....
Bosslady: What? You're saying no to a drink with me?
Me: ....
Bosslady: Look, I'm going to tell you something, you're going to take it.
Me: Alright, alright. Fine! Can't say no to a free drink.
Bosslady: Good, because I have one thing to say to you about that.
Me: What?
Bosslady: Molly, you in danger girl.

I love how she referred to quotes from 'Ghost' to reply to me for the rest of our conversation we had that day.

My bosslady loves me.
I had an amazing heart to heart with her about what’s been going on in my life lately today, something I don’t do a lot especially because of the fact that I don’t trust too easily. I’ve known her for almost a year, and she’s definitely been a trusted individual that I’ve learned to turn to for good financial & career advice, along with personal advice as...
