oOoOh LiFe...

August was a tough month, stressful I may say. A lad screwed us and made a big fuss which cost hefty amount of bucks, he squeezed the fruit not only from us (god bless him), he's such a head and pocket drainer. See, this lad came here to hunt for a job. He’s given 60 days stay on Visit Visa, so it means he’ll have 60 days to search for a job. To make the story short, this lad came here not from his own expense and without a single penny with him (literally, not even a single dollar). He stayed with us, free of everything --- from rent, food, and etcetera plus allowance so he can even pay his taxi/bus fares. This lad is such a disgrace, after all the things we have done for him, he still made a big hurdle with a matching bang which transformed things into a disastrous situation.

Hubby have given him a job in their office, imagine he was not been ask to submit any Resume’ and haven’t gone to any series of interviews, he just pops in the office and voila he started to work. Somebody should be grateful in that case, but it was a full 360 degrees negative turn. The story began to be agonizing, until I decided to throw him out of the house, I have to do it otherwise trouble will be the next game. He stayed with my sister and then blew the same tantrums which turned into a much heated pitfall. Finally he decided to go back home, his visa will be 14 days expired before his scheduled flight. Due to the fact that he doesn’t have the money to pay the air fare and the fine he has to pay at immigration office, my sister is good enough to shoulder his air fare and I, on the other hand paid his daily penalty cost for the expired visa which is almost equivalent to his air fare ticket (tell me i'm insane). Sorry to say this but I don’t know where the hell is his brain or if he have one. Now, his back home, no job to earn for a living and he believe that his one clever lad after all he has done. I believe in Karma, definitely there’s always payback time.

~~~ooOOOoo~~~

It’s already ber months which mean Christmas is just around the corner and by this time Radio’s are already playing Christmas songs. How I wish I can spend Christmas back home, hopefully we can manage to celebrate it with our families next year --- cross my fingers---…This is the time of the year that I fervently wanted to be home.

There are things that we want to accomplish before the year end. And one of those is to at least travel locally or if given a chance I would love to fly thousand miles from here. We’re trying to save some bucks for our travel plans, I hope nothing will hinder. Since we started working abroad, traveling is one of our goals. But due to our family obligations which interfere with our travel plans, traveling was been set aside at least for the meantime. Last year, we’ve planned to visit Hong Kong but apparently nothing transpired, then who to blame? Ummm----never mind… This time we have decided to focus on traveling since we are not yet blessed with a love child, this is the perfect jiffy to explore and enjoy because it will be only me and him. Now I guess it’s time to start our butts moving. We have some places in mind but I’ll just keep my mouth tightly zip before anything slip out of my tongue.

Let’s just see if it will push through or will it be just another stroy blew in the air. I hope and pray that our plans will turn out positive. I can feel good vibes, mmmm---sensing a good turn around….

That lad is shameless and truly a disgrace. Not all people are given the chance to enter Dubai, he let all opportunities slip away.

My hubby used to work in Dubai, now he's in Qatar, and I know how hard it is to live in a foreign land based on how my hubby described it to me.

Nowadays, when your kind to other people, they will abuse you. And when a person is lazy, no matter how huge support and help he gets, nothing will happen.

Be cool Sis, anyway, nasa Pinas na yung kunsimisyon mo...hehehe.

ey second honeymoon? heheheh! sana sis this plan of yours will push through.. heto naman ang advantage ng wala pang anak - you can always plan an out of town or country trip anytime as long as you have the moolah :)
