Things usually change for the better -- when you let them

good dayIn this world, things evolve or they become obsolete, and that goes double for relationships. So if it seems like your friendship is changing shape in ways both obvious and not-so-obvious, don't freak out. Most importantly, don't try to pretend that those changes aren't occurring -- there's nothing more damaging than living in the past. Take a moment to see the situation as it really is, unclouded by your emotions, hopes and fears. Things usually change for the better -- when you let them. Remember that.



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Yeah, right...for the better? I hope so..sometimes, there's no better option but finding reasons to affix good to the word bye. I dunno, I can't gather my thoughts..always drifting somewhere else (or to someone else..whatever!).

(good)bye

The message goes: a strong bonding doesn’t need daily conversation, doesn’t always need togetherness. As long as love lives in the heart, true friendship never departs. -- Perhaps it’s not the best way of saying goodbye. Honestly, ayaw kong gawin yun. It’s been only a day and few hours pero feeling ko, ang tagal nang panahon and I really miss him

WORK RULES

13 rules FOR the boss





1. Never give me work in the morning. Always wait until 4:00 pm and then bring it to me. The challenge of a deadline is refreshing!





2.  If it really is a rush job, run in and interrupt me every 10 minutes to inquire how it’s going. THAT HELPS! Or even better, hover behind me, advising me at every keystroke.





3.  Always leave without telling anyone where you’re going. It gives me a chance to be creative when someone asks where you are.





4.  If my arms are full of papers, boxes, books, or supplies, don’t open the door for me. I need to learn how to function as a paraplegic and opening doors with no arms is good training in case I should ever be injured and love all use of my limbs.





5.  If you give me more than one job to do, don’t tell me which is priority. I am psychic.





6.  Do your best have me stay in the office beyond 8 hours. I adore this office and really have nowhere to go or anything to do. I have no life beyond work.





7.  If a job I do pleases you, keep it secret. If that gets out, it could mean a promotion.





8. If you don’t like my work, tell everyone. I like my name to be popular in conversations. I was born to be whipped!



9.  If you have special instructions for a job, don’t write them down. In fact, save them until the job is almost done. No use confusing me with useful information.





10. Never introduce me to the people you’re with. I have no right to know anything. in the corporate food chain, I am plankton. When you refer to them later, my shrewd deductions will identify them.





11. Be nice to me only when the job I’m doing for you could really change your life or send you straight to misery.





12. Tell me all your little problems. No one else has any and it’s nice to know someone is less fortunate. I especially like the story about having to pay so much taxes.





13. Wait until my yearly review and THEN tell me what my goals SHOULD have been. Give me a mediocre performance rating without performance bonus. I’m not here for the money anyway.







2 rules OF the boss:





1.  The BOSS is ALWAYS right.





2.  When the BOSS is wrong, refer to rule # 1!
