Happy New Month

At exactly 11:30pm on December 31, light all the candles. Each candle symbolizes various aspects of life like peace, wealth, etc. Put out the candles at 12 midnight. Arrange the candles from smallest to biggest.

Yup, I lit those candles! That was one month ago. Ambilis ng panahon. We are now one down and eleven more to go. Actually all of us in the family had a set of candles and as the instruction goes.. sabay sabay namin itong sinindihan ng 11:30pm. I don’t believe in this prosperity candles as they called it. Sabi ko nga sa kanila paano pala kung yung coloring substance na ginamit sa isang kandila caused it to melt longer… lugi!But that was a good time for me. Habang ang mga kapitbahay namin ay nagpapaputok sa labas ay nasa kusina kaming lahat watching our candles. Nagkakantyawan at nangangarap. Yes, I could say that it was one of our family’s few bonding moments and I am looking forward to lighting another one come December 31.

The candle that melts quickest symbolizes the good fortune
that the new year will bring you first, followed by the rest.

red for health
blue for peace
yellow for intelligence
violet for spiritual growth
pink for love green for money
orange for career

Result (from smallest to biggest): green, violet, pink, yellow, red, orange, blue

I started playing Tantra siguro mga end of December and now I am level 33. I discovered some mistakes in allocating my skill points and so I created another character.. same hair, same face, same tribe.. different name. I plan to hang Ymir’s shoes and start a new adventure with Tyre.

Someone texted me last night. Hindi ako makapag reply kasi hindi ko alam kung ano ang sasabihin ko. That same person surprised me a few years back when he said that he can compare the way I handle things to that of typing. Ako daw yung tao na kapag nagkamali sa typewriter will crumple his paper, throw it in the trash, and start with a new one. Nagulat ako kasi literally ay ganoon nga ako sa typewriter and with that I realized na tama siya. I always want to continue with a clean slate whenever I make a mistake.

Nakakalungkot na hindi lahat ng bagay sa buhay ay pwede mong ibalik sa simula. Hindi lahat ng Ymir ay pwedeng gawing Tyre. Most of the time if not all the time, you just have to learn how to live with your wrong stat allocations.

Night shift na ako for the next two weeks starting last Monday. Half-hearted ako sa issue na ito hanggang ngayon. Nalulungkot ako kasi hirap talaga akong matulog kapag umaga at iba ang pakiramdam mo sa buong araw.. parang hindi sariwa. On the other hand, masaya naman ako dahil less pressure kapag nasa nightshift. Wala kasing manager. Walang serious issue na naputok. Minsan naiisip ko na kami lang naman ang nagpapagulo sa buhay namin.

 

Ang lamig ngayon tuwing umaga. Everytime na nalabas ako ng office pakiramdam ko sisipunin ako. Parang nakakahiwa pa nga ang lamig. Kanina nga the fields were covered with fogs. Nakakatuwa. If only I have a better camera mas maa-appreciate ko itong kuha na ito. But this will do. It was a beautiful sight. I can’t help but greet myself a good morning.
