What If...

There are still a lot of things I wish to achieve before I get 25. Whew, I have two years left. Anyway, today is a holiday. That means that I should not be here in my cubicle, but I insisted last night.

I have worked on the chips assigned to me for almost two week. I was told that I should expect a shipment each week. That means I have something to work on every week. This afternoon, I feel tired sitting and looking thru the microscope. Looking on a tiny package that does big things. Do I make sense? See, that's what I'm talking about. Focusity out of specification sheet.

Anyway, I still have to investigate something under the microscope and under the radar. Catch you later...

awoo! awoo!

He Finds Ways

4th of June 2008. 6:50 a.m. A month from now it will be the 4th of July. But this blog has nothing to do with USA's 4th of July.

Two shuttles passed before my eyes. I wasn't in either of those shuttles. Consequence? Might get late for work. It's great that jeepneys come in handy.

From the apartment, I had a two-minute walk to the hi-way. Then the shuttles passed by. Then I decided to take the jeepney. Manong driver was so patient in waiting for the other passengers while there I was impatient waiting for the other passengers. When I arrived in Manggahan, I stepped out of the jeepney and waited for a different jeepney bound to where I work. It was 7:20 a.m. Tic toc, tic toc. I felt that I am almost out of time. I didn't ride in the jeepney with "patient" drivers (if you get what I mean). So, I found myself inside an unregistered jeepney. Hassle-free. I arrived at the gate 7:27 a.m.

"Will I get late?" 7:35 a.m. is the allowed time for not to be marked with Late. And of course, no salary deduction. I walked hurriedly towards the entrance of our company. It was 7:33 a.m. in my watch. Two minutes left then I will be offically called a latecomer (Oh, just like school days..hehe, well I didn't get late often. I was often absent! haha).

Finally I arrived at the entrance/exit door. It was 7:36 a.m. in my cellphone. Oh crap! I am late. I rushed at the swiping zone to log in. It was amazing. The time reads 7:30 a.m. I did it! Oh, I almost forgot. The set time in my cellphone is plus 6 minutes with reference to our company's set time. Whew! That was close.

I thank God for He did it again. Just like the song Love Moves in Mysterious Ways. I say God is Love. He works in mysterious ways.

The Blind Touch

Yesterday I went to Robinsons Dasma for reflexology. It was great even if I felt that I dislocated some of my joints and sprained my muscles. But it was rewarding, I had a great rest...and a great morning.

They say that the blind is a better massager. And I agree. Even if he doesn't have the soft touch, he has the blind touch. I admit, his smashing my back was painful but he hit the spot. I feel relieved. I feel ashame and guilty that I can see. I feel guilty that most blind end up in massage parlors. I feel guilty that most of them feel that they are only good in massage parlors. Today's reading in eDidache (online version sent through email...visit kerygmafamily.com for more information) is about a blind man and also a masseur. I admit, I can see but I cannot see further and see what is behind every picture. I am blinder than a blind man.

I hope that I can see God clearer just like the blind man in the reading. I am weak. I feel guilty. I am worse than a blind man. Anyway, I hope that my tip for that blind who massaged me helped even a little. My respect for you, my blind friend.

Thank God, I am acknowledged

I feel glad that I am acknowledged of the simple magic that I do.

I have this feeling that I am an entertainer. Making others entertained makes me feel better and fulfilled. Compared with other magicians, I am billions of miles away. But I have something in common with the other great magicians--I give my all when I perform.

Magik, anyone? :)
