Im in love with a.........Thing!!!
Yes peeps I am in love, with a thing. A Thing or the VW 181 is a car my dear friends. The first time I saw this car was two decades ago well atleast that is the earliest memory that I have of seeing this beauty. It was khaki, had clear glass windows and had a hard top. The reason for this post is I was researching on this car and I saw pictures of it. Its a manly car and yet very cute.
The car was produced in germany during the 2nd WW mainly for military use. It was later manufactured in Mexico becoming the first car to be exported to the U.S. from Mexico. It orginaly came in four colors yellow, orange, green and white .It also came in khaki but its not one of the original colors.
I have set my mind on getting one of these fabulous looking cars. I even set up a budget for it. I cant state how much I love this car!!!
I Thing its called a Thing because one of it names in german means "what is it". Thing is the name it was given when released in the U.S. For those of you who do not know what it looks like its the VW car thats boxy in design with traight lines and sharp angles not like the smooth curves found on the beetle and carmen ghia.
I have made it a part of my prayer request. I even have a idea what it will look like. I want it either in yellow or green with chrome finish convertable but intercahngable with a hard top. Im looking into the possibility of hooking it up with an airconditioner.
Well thats all for now. Im also looking into this other car its cheap 40 grand its a 1994 model. So who know maybe I can get a car soon.
NOTE to self learn to drive first hehehehehe.

I miss my blog.... and of Redwall
Well after a hiatus of almost two weeks, I am finally back to bloggin. I actually missed it. Not that what I blog is of any importance but just the rambling thoughts of whatrever it is I am thinking at the moment.

I miss bloggin more than I thought I would. It is a form of release and of venting out what ever it is I am going through or just writing about something I really like or what not.

So today I will be bloggin about the Redwall series by Brian Jacques
basically the book is about the never ending battle between good and evil. The Characters are all animals where the good guys are mice, shrews, moles, hedgehogs, badgers and the like. The evil vermin are rats, stoats, ferrets, weasels, foxes, cats etc. words to express how enjoy this series are hard to come by. The way the story is told is really entertaining and it awakens ones imagination as to how the place and creatures would look like. Dont even get me started with the food in the stories is as good as any master cook or culinary genius can describe in so many words. for some reason it brings to mind the very first time I saw coolant yes coolant for your car so it wont over hear... hmmmm did I spell that right? Anyways the first time I ever saw what is looked like I wanted to drink it. hehehehhehe.... yes, yes I know its weird still I wanted to drink it. Thats how the feasts i the stories reaches out to me its as if I wished I could be part of the story. Its complete with comedy, action, adventure, drama, romance it is a plethora of all this that makes any rewall book a must read. The background how this all started when B.J. (Brian Jacques) made a story for a group of blind kids a friend liked it and sent it to a publisher and the rest is history now the series has if Im not mistaken 16 or 17 titles.

Its a good read for young and old alike.
-------------

I am freezing my butt here at work... the weird thing is its either you freeze your butt or you cook with the humidity.

There are no calls again today actually I dont think I have gotten any calls for almost two weeks now. Thank God for the phone sims. Its funny what man will think of to sell or what man would thnk of buying. I work for a c ompany that takes in calls for infomercials from satellite t.v, to excercise machines and what nots we ahve a product on how to get rich and other lame ass products some are actually good. then again somthing that is useless to one man is something great to another.

I am bored out of my mind right now.... I have read I think a total of 30 to 35 books since I started working here and many of those books more than once.
------------------------

I am begining to dislike the smell fo McDonalds!!! Its day in and day out thats what most everybody here at work orders since its just across the street.

I found a cheaper way to go to work I walk from my house to Pasong Tamo then a jeep I go down right in front of my building. so thats 4 bucks 19 if I take a trike to Pasong Tamo or 25 to take me to a block from work.
-------------

go to go back to the boredom that beckons.

SIGH!!!
Im sitting in front of my computer here at work desperately looking for something on the net to entertain myself from what has been a very very slow day here at work. The Monotony of it all is really eating at me right now. Im normally happy here at work but I have yet to recieve an ok call. I mean its better than yesterdays zero calls atleast today I have had two. The non stop humming of the aircon is lulling me to sleep for the nth time this day.

Im broke well not destitute broke but I have like 30 bucks to my name until the next pay day. I hate not having money.

I long for a warm home cook meal... real food and not the forever present canned tuna. I cant wait for the money to clear so I can do some shopping for food. Food like meat and fish and chicken and pork. Its not that Im complaining about the tuna Im thankful to have it but I have reached my limit to everyday tuna for lunch an dinner. Well guess what its tuna yet again for dinner. Yahoo!!!(SARCASTICALLY)

As I woke up this morning I just had this urge to curl up into a ball in a corner never to move again. Thoughts of work, bills, my uncle, my faith, family, future etc. ran rampant in my head. I lay on my bed on a fetal position wishing that time could just stop but I knew it wont and that every moment I spent in that position I knew I had to move but could not. I had to rally myself to get up, shower, dress up and go to work.

Still thinking of looking for a corner and curling into a ball and never moving again.

I watched a wonderful movie last night ""Tortilla Soup" How I wished that I could cook like the father in the movie. I recommend it to everybody. I felt sad afte watching it though even if it was a happy ending. I guess I just miss my Mom. She was a very good cook. I want to be young again when I had no problems aside from the worries of an 8 year old boy.

Sometimes I just fell like crying but fear that I might never stop. I fight my inner demons and I win and loose over and over again. Sometimes I wish I could just stop and give into it all and have myself carried away like a leaf in a windy summer day.

When will the sun shine again? I know it there on the horizon with the promise of better days. Yet I fear that it would never come. Is the sun strong enough to shine through these dark clouds in my life.

I know I have it easier than most people but I cant stop feeling this way. I have lost my focus on things. I want to go back but I fear I dont ahve the heart for it. I fear I dont have the strength.

God you know my heart.... give me grace to renew my faith in you. Its still there but I have let things pass by without taking action.

Sun please shine soon.

5:57pm

As I end my day here at work watching the setting sun appreciating its pinkish hue the sun shines for me!!! The Money I was waiting for has cleared. Lord thank you for your faithfulness to me and I am sorry for the lack of it in my part. Truly you are my provider. I cant express this warm sensation that is building up inside of me. Lord I am kilig for you!!! The Sun shines for me not more than hour after I was questioning it. Lord you truly are wonderful.

Im back
Well Im back here at work. Which means I can blog again. yahoo!!!

Holy Week has just passed by and the highlight for me that week was a picnic with some friends in Salcedo Park. It was fun we had food, wine and just fun. Faith went with us. At first she didnt even want to put her feet on the ground and was content sitting on my lap. As the afternoon passed she got enough courage to explore a bit and after we could not catch her she was just running and just having fun. we had to give ehr a bath when we got home since she was a bit muddy. We played this game called brain which was fun we also wrestled man was I tired. I think we will do this again soon.

Pre gave us some home cooked food last night it was yummy.

Had an ice cream cone from where else... Mc Donalds. Double Yummy ;)

My Uncle is being a pain again!!! Why cant he leave us alone. He should really get a life.

I am... oh I dont know how I feel or how to feel about something.
