Another Halloween...

I always look forward to halloween to the extent of feeling overly stressed on what costume to wear. I would always want to look different not necessary creepy or disgusting. This year, I decided to be a mutilated head - blame it on IT Infra's styro lying around the office. It's actually one of my dream halloween costumes. My pictures really scared the hell out me... I didn't want to look at it.

I guess, being Lady Gaga is way better than being an "ulong pugot".

Nah, not really... just a fat version of Ms. Poker Face.

Till next halloween...

Unguarded Moments

Sleeping Beauties

I love watching my daughters in their sleep. It’s one of those moments that I treasure the most just watching them in their most serene and yet vulnerable self. Sometimes I can’t help but plant a kiss on their forehead or brush a strand of hair. I value moments like these because sooner or later I may not be able to have the chance to watch them more often.

I can’t help but laugh at above photo I took when I came home last night. Poor big sister being stepped on by the little one even in their sleep! But I know that’s not the case when they’re wide wake for they are truly the best of sisters despite the 6-year gap.

what lies ahead...

I joined this organization for secretaries and administrative professionals less than six months after I joined XL. My then boss encouraged me to join for career growth and networking. I wasn’t officially accepted yet coz as a newbie, one has to attend 3 consecutive meetings and undergo a panel interview with the members of the board. Well, it took me a year to be accepted as I haven’t really completed the required 3-consecutive-meeting requirement save for my perennial absences. In August of 2006, I took my oath to be able to cast my vote to the incoming officers. I was officially inducted as member December of the same year.

It has been almost four years of being a member of PAS. PAS gave me numerous opportunities to learn and to grow. I was trusted with some roles and positions that I thought I can’t do from the very start and yet, was able to pull it through in the end. I started as a member then a committee chairperson and eventually a member of the prestigious Board of Trustees.

In the coming year, I am thrust to one of PAS’ vital posts as Vice President Elect. With the position comes a very challenging role of spearheading the 11th Regional Conference and ultimately leading the association as President in 2011. Such an enormous responsibility if I may say. If one asks if I am ready… I don’t think I am and I am scared as hell to be honest about it! I’ve seen the best and the worst of this association and its membership. There even came a point when I got sick and tired of the system and wanted to quit. But better things like friendships and the learning experience outweigh the negative side. And knowing that I can do something that will make this association a better one is another reason why I am up for the challenge. I know I am threading on uncertain path --- we don’t know what lies ahead in the next two years. This year, we had the recession with companies folding and people losing their dear jobs. It might get worst in the coming years. For a professional organization like PAS, we are affected by the status quo. Thus, I need as much wisdom and inspiration from PAS members and past presidents before I take the hot seat. May God be with me and the association.

Happy Birthday, Rockstar!

Of course, your birthday will not be complete without YOU occupying a space in this blog.

I know sometimes, I am such a meanie to you and to your friends.

Guess, I'm too selfish to share you to the world.

Nevertheless, you will always have me whatever and wherever life brings us to.

Good or bad, we will always stick together like a super glue.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ROCKSTAR DAD!!!

Big Hugs from your girls,

Mhalou, Alex & Zabbie
