The Home Wrecker

This past week was a horrible to me. Why not, if someone accuses You being their family's HOME WRECKER? Hahaha, even I can't believe it!

To my parents, Thank You for making such One Of A Kind Child. Lol. <3

Cry in Tears

Kiyera!

Card form Papemelroti 

Last midnight, after work, I wrote this Mother's Day letter for my Mama.

LoveStruck

Kiyera!

Shot in Venice Piazza, McKinley Hill, Taguig city last Valentine's Day

Every time I hear Nina’s own rendition of ‘Love Moves in Mysterious Ways’, I believe her.

Last night, when my officemates and I were having our dinner, we came to bully our friend, Rose’s previous love life. She told us that she has moved on from it. Then suddenly, the bullying strikes me. Yay!  “Did you ever fall in love?” –they asked me. The question has stuck me into silence, laugh less, speechless and loneliness. L

They told me that being in love with someone is much different from infatuating one.

This may be the emo-iest post I had made since the year started.

Taking Advantage

Yey! May SM Advantage Card narin ako!

For Php 150.00 registration fee, any holder of this card can earn points every time he/she purchases to any SM stores. And earned points can be redeemed for any consumer products. (Oh di'ba? Parang sales clerk lang ng SM Department Store? Hehe). This is just my secondary reason why I decided to get mine. Primarily because of my irritation (don't get me wrong how I mean it when I say that I become irritated to them) to the cashiers every time I pay my items. UNLI sila? Paulit-ulit! Haha:

(Before)


Cashier: "Sir, may SM Advantage Card kayo?"
BeKIERful: "Wala po eh."
Cashier: "Baka gusto niyong mag-avail?"
BeKIERful: "Hindi na po."
Cashier: "Php 150.00 lang po Sir."
BeKIERful: "Hindi po."
Cashier: "Magagamit niyo po yun points for..." *blah, blah, blah...


(Now)

Cashier: "Sir, may SM Advantage Card kayo?"
BeKIERful: (Kunin ang SMAC sa wallet, then) "Oh yan!" *hahaha, joke lang ha!

This is just a temporary card . The permanent one will be released (or I can get) after a month from the date of my registration.

From my Mom's experience, sulit ito! She used her earned points for kilo and other ingredients of Spaghetti for my Father's birthday.

Ako kaya, anong item ang mapapalit ko using my points? Mmmm...

Rosy Leather

She promised it, and she made it.

Finally! Nabigay narin ni Rosey and kanyang Post-Christmas Gift sa akin! Almost three months din pero worth it. Dahil super like ko itong Black Snake-skin coin purse!

I really do! :)

Get to know me first ni Rosey

Hello mga BeKI! Ay, mga BeKIERful people pala! Haha.. Oo, ako nanaman nga ito. Ikukuwento ko ngayon ang kahulugan ng titulo nitong blog post ko.

Last Tuesday ito, habang nagtatrabaho kami ni Rosey, ang aking ka-Team at (mahirap man sabihin.. kaibigan? Haha).

Uy! Friday the 13th pala ngayon! Kakasabi lang ng DJ sa radyo. {WalaLangHaha}

Back to my story:

Tapos, biglaan nalang napunta ang aming kuwentuhan sa pagiging “Suplado” ko (daw?). Ang pagkakatanda ko, pinag-uusapan naming kung gaano kalabo ang aking dalawang magandang mata. Naks!

Konbersasyon

(AKO si BeKIERful, si Rosey si RACStar—name ng blog niya)

...

BeKIERful: “Ang labo kasi talaga ng mata ko. As in kahit nasa harap ko na, hindi ko parin nakikita (OA no? Pero totoo talaga!).

RACStar: “Kasi tuwing nakikita kita, halimbawa nung isang araw, nakangiti na ako sa’yo, pero ikaw wala ka paring reaksyon, hindi ka paring ngumingiti. SUPLADA MO!"

(Huuuuwwaaaatttt???)

Post script

Hayeee! Gulat kayo? Hehe. Syempre hindi pa. Kasi hindi niyo pa natatapos itong tinype ko.

Mamimiss ko (namin) kayo!

Ginawa ko ito dahil hindi kasya kung isusulat ko lahat sa card. Hindi naman ako selfish sa space. Hehe.

RENG!

Akala ko dati mayabang ka. Yun nagtanong ako sayo about sa auto-calc ng B/S. Sabi mo: “Anong auto-calc? Auto-Copy!” haha. Sorry naman.

Pero hindi naman pala. Behave ka din pala.


Don't worry, hindi kita aagawin kay Farrah. hehe

Mommy!

I remember our first day sa floor, yun sa shuttle. Hindi pa tayo close nun. Pagpasok niyo ni Dats sa shuttle, tawa kayo nang tawa. Hindi niyo ako pinansin nun. Sabi ko tuloy "Ang susuplada naman nitong dalawang 'to!" Kaya hanggang ngayon, hindi ko parin maisip na magiging close tayo. Drama ba Mommy?

Prize tag

I've been wanting to have my own camera, ever since, aside from Laptop computer. A camera that will help me capture beautiful memories of my own beautiful stories. Naks!

Last night, BMS's latest blog entry caught my eyes. The fashion-blog owner herself, Laureen Uy, offers her readers giveaways as her own thanksgiving for her birthday. Even though I criticized her before for her one blog post, I swallowed my pride and bravely joined her contest. Just for the sake of Nikon camera, haha! By simply completing the "Because of Nikon.." sentence, one can get a chance to grab the same.

With this simple instruction (and for about a minute of thinking), I commented impromptu:

"...because of Nikon, every pose has its True meaning: true meaning of what our lives can bring to us. :) "

-KIER Cuevas

I hope my next post is about my new camera, lol. =))

+Happy Birthday, btw. :)

Collect and collect, then collect

Hey, what do you think is your purpose in life? Hmm, sounds weird, right?

Ever since, whenever or whatever I think that this is a special day!, I see to it that I have any thing that will remind me of where I went or what I did, a souvenir. I've been keeping whatever piece of paper I get whenever I travel, or go to events (like Junior-Senior Prom Night in our high school days, I still have the Invitation card), dine in restaurants (Tissue papers are the best ones. I write the special date and the reason when and why I dine), and do (my next spare time pleasure aside from blogging and reading) Movie-ing!

Anyways, the question is basically for this Mont Blanc Card Holder/Keeper/Organizer (I don't know what it is called) I received as a Christmas gift from our long-time neighbor, Kuya Lito.

It's been about ten months from then that I still didn't decide to where to use it. Ten months of being useless inside my cabinet. Then suddenly, after my mother and I watched a movie last night, I'd just thought of keeping the other half of our movie tickets to this brown organizer. Great idea!

Here's what I did:

I will keep those movie tickets here! 

I am not promising that I will fill all the empty sheets of this holder as early as next day, but I am pretty much sure that this will be filled with memorable and beautiful movies my eyes could ever seen on wide screen. Oh yeah!

+++++

F.Y.I.

Before collecting movie tickets, I already have this bottle with cork (This was one of our condiments' bottles in the kitchen!)

Inside is a shell (labeled with name of place and date) gave by my team mate when we had our team building in Anawangin, Zambales. Thanks Krisanto!

I find this crafty and convenient for my planned getaway souvenirs: shells, beach sand and the like.

So why not start collecting your own? Watchu think?

Waeber

Hindi ko alam kung paniniwalaan ko sila o hindi.

Nung nirewardan ako ng Globe 8888 ng 110 free texts at 5 minute call (Globe-to-Globe only) kaninang tanghali, agad akong nag-forward ng inspirational message sa lahat ng mga Globe user friends ko. Yun iba nagreply, at may ilang hindi na ata ako kilala.

Haha, kakatawa lang! (Sari-saring dahilan, hehe peace tayo!)

Hindi ko kasi inugaling magpapalit-palit ng cell phone number, kaya kahit hindi ko na sila (my contacts) nakikita o nakakausap ng madalas, hindi ko pa rin dini-delete ang mga numero nila. Bakit? Siguro kasi alam kong magkikita't-magkikita parin kami. Magkaka-usap at magkukuwentuhan. Anyways, we're still friends! :)

A simple compliment makes my bad day, right

The moment I started my work at our office, I felt a "I think this is going to be another bad day." feeling. And I'm right. Overload of works (is my major enemy) and all other factors (I'll just keep them to myself) had affected the start of my Thursday. But they were all gone when I got a (one, same) simple compliment from my office mates: They like&love my (this) blog, and  been following and reading all my posts! For your appreciation to the layout (style) of it, to its 'KIER' signature at the bottom of all the posts, to its (my) black & white 'make-face' background at the right, and to its unique blog site title, BeKIERful, Thank YOU!

This blog is full of stories not because of me, but because of You who've been making my life a narrative story that is worth sharing. :)

Pee versus Poof

Last Friday evening, when my younger sister went back home, she bought two Magazines (one is March 2011 issue of Candy Mag) for only Php100 (a great finds for late issues!) in SM Supermarket (where the other one did her best friend get).

There's a portion on the issue tackling teenager's worst experiences inside the bathroom. It caught my eyes and didn't hesitate to finish reading. Just to join the crowd, I also have the worst experience:

At our office, I only pee and wash my hands (or clean up) in a 'private' gent's rest room. It has one cubicle bowl attached in the wall, one ordinary cubicle (with door), and a sink Every time I use the room, I turn and twist its door knob to know if someone's occupying it already, and when someone doesn't, (and when I get inside the room) I see to it that I turn the knob twisted again to lock.

One moment: I entered the room and locked the door. I unzipped my pants and started to pee.

When peeing, I heard something's (somehow, it's 'someone') inside the other door (where one cubicle is placed).

Someone's poofing!

I suddenly smelled (and HEARED!) his outburst that I didn't smell when I first entered. And by the time I finish my business, (I don't want Him to see me using also the room) I quickly turned my way out of the room without washing my hands! I really don't know that someone's already occupying the space!

For his sake, he must have locked the door before doing his business!

Worst experience. Worst smell. =))

Counter-strike

When: September 16, 2011; Friday

Where: Public Bus (Baclaran-Edsa MRT route)

Who: Me, who's slightly harassed

Hindi ko inakalang sa huling araw ng linggo, kakabahan ako nang ganun.

Sa bus, may upuang pang-dalawahan, pang-tatluhan, at animan (sa likod). Umupo ako sa tatluhan, sa may malapit sa pintuan, para sa madaliang pagbaba. Nakita ko rin ang iba kong officemates na sumakay din ng parehong bus. May nakaupong lalaki sa may bandang bintana. Tumabi ako, at hindi isinaisip na may ganuong klaseng taong makakatabi o masasalamuha sa araw na iyon.

Isa pala siyang 'manyak'. Gamit ang aking peripheral view, nakita kong unti-unti niyang tinataas ang kanyang shorts. At sa pag hindi ko pagpansin, bigla naman niyang inilagay ang kanyang mga kamay sa gilid ng aking tagiliran, na wari'y kumakalabit. Tumititig. At pag may dumadaan sa gitna ng bus, saktong ibabaling niya ang kanyang tingin sa bintana.

Sa pagiging kabado, hindi ko alam ang aking gagawin.

Sisigawan at mumurahin. Sa inaakalang maaari akong tulungan ng mga ibang pasahero kapag narinig nila ako, and maybe worst, kung hindi. 

Kukomprontahin. Baka naman ako'y mapahiya kung hindi naman totoo. 

O tatahimik? Para walang gulo.

Ako'y tumahimik, inunahan ng kaba, at dali-daling bumaba nung sa Pasay road na.

Nagkamali ako. 

+++++

Bakit kaya may mga ganitong klaseng tao? Mga bastos, mga manyak! #FollowGodNOTdemon

One of a Kind Success?

Life is full of success for us to discover.

I received a chat message from my long-time friend (since high school) saying that I am now living my life successfully. I'd just thought that my friend was just commending with what I've been having now. A not so best work + family + friends. Honestly speaking? I'm still not as successful as what she thought. (Excuse me po.) I was not born from a billionaire family nor studied in an exclusive university in the country. I still have more ambitions and dreams to be accomplished. And by that time comes, I can proudly say that I'm living my life to its fullest, with success!

Take this:

"Success is not measured by how far you are from others, but how far you exceeded your dreams and expectations."

 -KIER Cuevas (Yes, this is my own aphorism!)

I still have more to get, more to attain, more to accomplish (you too, right?). I am not saying that I am not contented with what I've been living now. But (of course), we still explore and discover more and more until such time we find what we really want and need.

At the end of the day, it's all up to us. We have our life, and we (not anyboby) control it.


One of a Kind.

Yay! I'm wet

It was as 'Yay!' as 'Yuck!'

Last Friday, around 2:40 in the afternoon (my time to head off for work), I was stuck in the middle of raining angry cats and dogs! And while they were busy fighting, their outbursted tears brought me (actually us) into a 'last day of the week' DISASTER!

After alighting from the Jeepney, I stood at the side of Coastal-to-Baclaran road (or MIA road as it is) to wait for a bus (with route going to Edsa). But when I realized that my pants and shoes were that super wet, I looked for a place where I can shed off and ran to a hotel (actually it's Bayview Hotel). I joined others who were also stranded and just stayed in front of the hotel (right in front of their main entrance's door).

While waiting for the rain to stop (and for the bus to arrive), I didn't notice that the water was starting to get high and reached my shoes.

Yay!

Oh, the water's reaching the first step of the hotel's main entrance. 

Si Manong nahulog pa ata yun cellphone! Sayang!

To better see the signage of the buses (if it's going to Edsa-MRT), I decided to take off my shoes, left my socks on my feet, and walked through that dirty-canal-scent flood (for the second time!).

Haha, it’s funny how passengers looked at me (especially my feet) when I finally took a bus.

When I logged in to our office by 4:06 (which simply means that I'm already 36 minutes late! Argh!), I quickly went to my work station and asked my officemates to help me buy a new pair of slippers, since my shoes and socks were so wet!

For Php 120.00, I bought this Skull printed Tripper slippers from 7-Eleven (near our building). +haha, cute lang ng mga daliri ko sa paa!

My wallet ended up with only Php 20.00 (from gross of Php 170, less Php 120 for the slippers, less Php 30 worth of Big Pandesal from Pan De Manila). Yey! #TGIF!

I remember my very first encounter of flood is when I was in my junior years back in college. It was at around 6 in the evening, after my last class, and will be heading to home. A sudden heavy rain came by, then a (below-the-knee level) FLOOD. And with no concrete knowledge of what to do (and the urge to go home early since expect that after a heavy rain is a heavy traffic), I bravely walked through that black (below-the-knee level) water, holding my school shoes in my left hand, my umbrella in my right, while left my socks on my feet (to prevent from any debris I could step in since I forgot to bring an emergency slippers). And the feeling while I'm taking my seat at the back of the bus for home? Yuckish!

And then there's this incident again. I was out of my mind; do not know what to do.

I do not know if it was planned by our heavenly Father, but I'm pretty sure, this must be charged to my own experience to be well-prepared, calm, and focus when this incident happens again.

Have An A+ Life

Here's what motivates me when I'm so down (meaning, super stress!) at work: (taped on the side of my magazine rack)

Hope you can make your own to motivate you not to give up! Life is so easy. ( :

Worth the long wait

July 15, 2011, 11:11pm; Venice Piazza, McKinley Hill, Taguig City

My loooong wait is over! Fnally, I posed for a pic in front of this restaurant's mural! -and in front of different pairs of eye!

hehehe, ang itim ko dito, tinaasan ko kasi yun contrast to make the background's colors more lively.

Here are my friends's comments over Facebook:

+Thanks to ROSA, Gem, and Joan for joining me in making this shot possible!

Oh, Marky Boi!

Aside to my own personal pick feature my blogs have now, I'll be featuring also other personalities or people whose inspire, teach me, and look up to, on their own different ways.

My first spot, my batchmate/officemate, Mark "Mark-y" Nival. Yown!

Honestly speaking, from all our men officemates, Marky has been so nice to our batch. Sorry guys, but Marky is the only one who's not that 'KJ-Kill Joy' with whatever 'trip' we make. Game na Game! Isn't he?

From the day our batchmates exchanged our cp numbers, Marky never misses to forward all inspiring SMS his phone stores.

Go Marky!, in inspiring your friends with these simple, substance with life's lessons messages:

Smile before you read

♫Smile, when your heart is aching.. La, la, la..♪♪

(Hindi ko na alam ang susunod..haha)

Sabi nila, since high school, iba daw aura ang mayroon ang aking mukha-bukod sa pimplets-madalas o araw-araw o menu-minuto or the worst, segu-gundo daw akong SERYOSO, as in capital S-E-R-Y-O-S-O. Pailalim kung tumingin, wala man lang ngiti sa tuwing may nakakasalubong, MATARAY?

Oo na, ako na ang biniyayaan ng mga (mataray) makakapal at salubong na kilay. Ito talaga eh. God make NO mistakes.

Bigla nalang ako nagulat sa katotohanang kailangan ko palang magsuot ng ngiti araw-araw, kahit wala sa mood. Bukod sa isa itong mabisang paraan para mapatagal ang ating pagkulubot/pagtanda ng ating mga mukha, na-realize ko kasing iba ang 'charisma' ng may masayahing mukha. Na kahit may mabigat tayong pinagdadaanan, with a big, simple smile, all of those will be quiet vanished. Oh, vanished ka d'yan!

Kaya, expect me to smile every second, minute, hour, or day, and at my last breath.

Sa mga nakakakilala sa akin, pakitapik nalang ako kung nakita nyo akong seryoso o nakasimangot!

Penge naman ako nyan!

*photos were borrowed from different sites(just click them). thanks!


Nakaugalian na natin, lalung-lalo na sa ating mga Pilipino, ang pagsulat at pagtago ng mga litrato ng mga bagay na gustong-gusto nating bilhin, o makamit. Ika nga, "Law of Attaction". Ito daw ay isang paraan para tayo'y magkaroon ng mas malakas na loob para ang mga ito'y ating makamtam, hindi man ngayon, kundi sa mga susunod na panahon.

When I watched 'The Secret', a documentary film focusing/emphasizing the "Law of Attraction", I truly agree and believe with it. It gave me, and been giving me the courage that whatever my mind perceive and believe, I WILL SURELY ACHIEVE IT. Aside from having a 'Positive' outlook, we must also have the gut/s to do, achieve whatever things we want to receive or to happen. JUST Stay FOCUS!

I listed below the things that I really, really, really want to have. And I'm definitely sure that I will have them-100%!

A Laptop

I am not an expert in techie gadgets, thus, I don't know what brand of Laptop I really need. But I want it to be either in black or in silver. This portable computer will surely help me in writing my blog posts, update my Facebook and Twitter, and also read other's blogs, articles, and posts, wherever and whenever. But of course, I am thankful that I have this BB. I can still blog, update, and read articles, at the same time, but limited only to its small screen.

A pair of 'Espadrille' shoe

Especially this Summer, it's nice seeing myself wearing a flat, blue-jean Espadrille with a plain color shirt on top and my white fitted 'tokong' my mama gave, while walking on a beach's sea shore! I am really into wearing flats for my feet. Aside from its comfortability, I find it easy to match with other attire, depending on my mood. There are other flat shoes brands selling in the market nowadays, but I'll still go for Espadrille. Go for Original! Love it!

A Travel ticket

For me, travelling would be a best investment. Instead of buying expensive clothes, bags, or high-tech gadgets, I would rather spend my money travelling around the country, or better yet, the world. I would definitely enjoy taking photos from different beautiful sceneries Philippines has, and buy something from that would as my souvenir. Mostly, this Summer, it's fun to visit beautiful beaches here in the country and try different outdoor activites like Snorkling, Zip line, Mountain hiking, and the like. Internationally, I would choose to travel first to Paris, France, and take a pic while an Eiffel Tower is standing at my back; visit their Romeo & Juliet's tourist site; and sit in their love boat while serenading across the street. Secondly, Disneyland USA. My younger sister, Mia, really wants to go here. We're both like riding in extreme rides! And, oh, London, England is one too. It's the best time to visit their newly-wed Duke and Duchess and have a photo with them. -hahaha.

Full Dental braces

Smile makes our day more beautiful. Ever since I was young, I want to have a perfect smile. And with a beautiful smile, I need perfect teeth!

Genuine leather made notebook or organizer

My old needs a new one. A notebook where I can write my plans for a day, and personal contacts. Gusto ko sana yun hindi na spiral, since I am a left-handed, it's difficult for me to write at the right part of it.

A Pure Gold & 100% Silver ring

Any brands, karat, cheap unless with good quality will definitely do, just two rings that can interchangeably suit my right middle finger. Gold, since it's one of my favorite colors, and Silver, just to look simple and elegant.

My Own Digital Camera

We(my family) got our first digicam last two months when Papa won it from their company's party. Better to have my own. This camera will help me capture those memorable memories that I can blog about. Either Canon or Nikon, basta maganda ang pixel.

And lastly..

My Destined Partner

Hahaha, loveless much? Hindi naman ako pihikan eh, basta 'down to earth' or jolog with a very good sense of humor. Demanding pa?

I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I must, I shall have these!!

That's the spirit!
