Think of Happiness and Prosperity

By Jojette Asumbrado Ramos

Had a good sleep
Able to sleep beside my son, and hubby too with lots of embraces
Peaking at dawn, and entangled with more love and affection
Prosperity is knocking on our door, come in by all means
You will have happiness, open your heart to welcome it.

Finding the Pieces

Time and distance will never be a hindrance
Ours had began eternally
Looking and seeking each other
Ones found, none will go astray.

Sinulog: Pit Senor!

By: Jojette Asumbrado Ramos

Devoted people come to Cebu City to give homage to the little child image of Jesus Christ, who is a symbolism of childlike form of the Savior. Santo Nino, as we call Him in our Visayan dialect had and will be the protector of the Queen City of the South as well as to those who are pious and not so, in a way.

At dawn, as my co-workers and I became observers of the massive contingents lining up on the road, waiting for the 8 am commencement of the parade. The ROTC cadets lining up on the sides of the streets holding the rope in order to control the crowd not to go beyond, to let the participants have space for dancing. Sinulog after all is a street dancing homage to the vibrant and energetic Santo Nino. The police forces and the government officials are all assigned to designated to places, visibility is a must in here. 

All the people are excited, smiling, wearing colorful outfits, costumes of glittery in nature, uniqueness is totally encourage. Be prepared to walk for kilometers thou, it is part to the immersion in this festival. 

The music, the beat of the drums; it will just make you want to dance. If my words do not convinced you, then let me enhance your imagination to the pictures I had taken during the celebration of Sinulog.

All About Questions

By Jojette Asumbrado Ramos

Now that I am in a new QA staff, my working atmosphere is getting better. There was a time, I thought my ratings will never see the light of day, it dived so low, the abyss was just a breath away. 

I have a breathing space at present and I could again infused my enthusiasms to my daily routines at work. One scenario, to reiterate my point, happened during our not so short after worked meetings, but at least compared before, now is much brief and concise. The QA said, “When u answer your customer’s questions, do not answer it with another question”. Then a rendition of Alfred Mann’s band popped to my mind, I said,” Miss, that is what we call…(started singing the adlib)… ‘They answered my questions with question’” They all looked at me with blanked expression on their faces. Oh gosh, a decade and a half of gap, indeed. I had to bite my tongue and contained my bubbling laughter inside. I realized, there are jokes according to generation.

It is time to do ultimatum. I am tired of waiting, I just have to give up because I do not know the reason why I still stayed. I’ve been looking but the thing is, it is all empty.

When will you be the person I preferred you to be. It is all a waste time to linger, have to move on. Life has to be lived with utmost adventure and thrills.

I wanted to live in an adventurous life and a happy one too. Why is it I feel like a prisoner with you, I thought you will set me free.
