Who I want to meet in Heaven

I’ve been checking exams and computing for grades the whole day.


I need a break.


Let me see.


I have a lot of things in my mind at the moment – actually, since last night. I slept at about 3 am but I was not doing anything but staring on the ceiling.


A lot of thoughts were in my mind last night.


I wondered how and when I could go over this health concern. I’ve been processing papers and it’s taking me long making a decision. I was supposed to visit a doctor of ENT today but I still couldn’t make up my mind so I didn’t go.


I was also thinking about the movie THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN. I’ve read the book by Mitch Albom and I love it, the same way that I love his other books, e.g. Tuesdays with Morrie and For One More Day. When I watched the movie, it made me wonder what I am here on Earth for.


I imagined who I want to meet in heaven when I die – ha ha – as if I am sure to go to heaven or as if there is indeed heaven. And so I thought, I want to meet Sir Solis, my twin babies, Layne, and maybe my father. I want to see them in heaven and talk to them and ask them about a lot of things which I don’t really understand at the moment.


I want to ask Sir Solis why he didn’t talk to me before he left and if he knew how much I wanted to talk to him the last time I saw him at PS building during the Kapihan.


I wanna see my twin babies and let them know how much I miss the days I didn’t have with them. I want to see them and hold them tight.


Maybe I would not have to ask Layne a lot of questions because I had enough time to ask him all questions I could ever think of. But I just want to see him and let him know how much he means to me.


Finally, I want to see my father. I will have to ask him a lot of questions. Why he just left us when we were kids, why he was too coward to accept responsibilities, etc. But aside from asking him questions, I also want to find out how it feels to stand face-to-face with a father. I haven’t known how it felt to be standing next to my biological father. I want to know if I could ever accept him as my father.


It's raining.


Perhaps it means it's time to sign off. (lol)

Management Lessons from GUNG HO

'I must recognize that man achieves the highest degree of efficiency when he plays. If someone says he works out of loyalty to the company, he is a damned liar.' ----Soichiro Honda Founder-millionaire Honda Motor Co., Ltd. When a company fails, who should take the blame? When the workers complain, who should do some reflections, the management or the workers themselves? Hunt Stevenson, in the movie GUNG HO (means to WORK TOGETHER) , needed to do some reflections before it was too late. His failure to do some actions would result in closure of Assan Motors, thereby leaving hundreds of American laborers unemployed. According to Robert Heller, the author of the article EFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT: TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, "How the boss behaves has a profound effect on how other managers perform - and thus on the performance of the entire outfit. That's a self-evident truth, acknowledged by most people. But few bosses acknowledge the corollary: that inferior performance is partl...

Levels Earned, Lessons Learned in SHAIYA

The holy week was not really holy for me. This was time of the year when I played hard. Really played hard, as in trying to make the toon level every time I logged in . And to help my toon level up, even my husband and my daughter would play with her. This year, my toon is DanieGanda. Danie, for the record, is my daughter's nick name. But I thought of adding the word "Ganda," which is a tagalog term for Beauty. DanieGanda is a human priest in the normal mode. As the rule in Shaiya, a player won't be able to create a character in the hard mode [here, toons are stronger] without first reaching level 40 in the normal mode, which is a level lower than HM. When DanieGanda started, she was power leveled by king-kruller, whom DanieGanda met while my daughter was playing the toon. King_kruller was als o Danie's first friend in Shaiya. At the moment, he's already level 58, UM. The experience was good for Danie was able to meet players from different walks o...

My SHAIYA battle for a week

A duo with -kamikaze- MMORPG. Online games. Virtual world. SHAIYA. The past holy week signaled the beginning and end of my battle in the virtual world. I started playing an MMORPG for a week -- trying to level up my character named SexySteffi in an online game known to players as SHAIYA . It wasn't as sophisticated as Wow but most things are basically the same. The best parts would be killing monsters to level up and killing darkies to get higher ranks. Another good thing about online games like SHAIYA is the opportunity to talk to people or gamers from different parts of the world. I've met gamers from Columbia, Chile, Texas, Australia, Canada, etc. Gamers really come from different walks of life. Some are young, some old, some married, some single, some just fooling around, some serious about leveling up. As a priest, SexySteffi is in demand in the game :-) Some players would always invite her to a party so that they could conquer the monsters without getting killed a...
