Check out why I am liking DIsney and Pixar's Up on my blog: http://karixie.wordpress.com Though I love Multiply because it makes life easier for me, I need to transfer my blog because, hey! It's not easy to maintain two blog sites then sometimes, putting on the same content for both sites (Believe me, that's a pooper! Please don't decide now or regret it later. LOL.)

You will then be directed to my blog.
Thank you so much everyone!!! Hugs, hugs, hugs! A song on releasing what you think is the thing for you and allowing a Mighty hand do the thing...
24
Switchfoot
Twenty-four oceans, twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures and twenty-four tries
Twenty-four finds me in twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four drop-outs at the end of the day
Life is not what I thought it was twenty-four hours ago
I'm still singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
And I'm not who I thought I was twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
There's twenty-four reasons to admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses still twenty-four strong
See, I'm not copping out
Not copping out, not copping out
When You're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man
And You're raising these
Twenty-four voices with twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies in twenty-four parts
But I want to be one today centered and true
I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
You're raising the dead in me
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man
And You're raising the dead in me, yeah, yeah
I wanna see miracles to see the world change
Wrestled the angel for more than a name
For more than a feeling, for more than a cause
I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
And You're raising the dead in me
Twenty-four oceans with twenty-four hearts
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
All of my symphonies with twenty-four parts
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
(And You're raising the dead in me)
Life is not what I thought it was twenty-four hours ago
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
Still I'm singing, 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
(And You're raising the dead in me)
I'm not copping out
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
Not copping out
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
Not, not copping out
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)

As per Jon Foreman (Switchfoot's vocalist and composer of the song):
"I wrote this song near the end of my 24th year on this planet. Wherever we run, wherever the sun finds us when he rises, we remain stuck with ourselves. That can be overwhelming. Sometimes I feel like my soul is polluted with politicians, each with a different point of view. With all 24 of them in disagreement, each voice is yelling to be heard. And so I am divided against myself. I feel that I am a hypocrite until I am one, when all of the yelling inside of me dies down. I've heard that the truth will set you free. That's what I'm living for: freedom of spirit. I find unity and peace in none of the diversions that this world offers. But I've seen glimpses of truth and that's where I want to run."

Very real, very direct. It may be cheesy but it's a real one (Huh? Hehe.) I am excited to sing this song one day! :)
My Idea of Heaven
I never thought I'd get here
I was so far away
I didn't believe in love
Thought it was just a game people play
Everything changed when I met you
I touched your hand
You took my heart
And you led me to a better place
Just the two of us in the dark
This is my idea of Heaven lying here with you
This is my idea of Heaven nothing else I'd rather do
I never thought you'd get here
Why'd you make me wait?
But when I looked into your eyes
I recognized you were my fate
I'd been living in a lonely shell
With no windows to the world
How in God's name did you find
the lone star's loneliest girl?
This is my idea of Heaven lying here with you
This is my idea of Heaven nothing else I'd rather do
To feel you heart beating
To feel our lips meeting
This is my idea of Heaven ooooo
In Heaven love is everywhere
There is no pain there are no tears
In Heaven love lasts forever
It doesn't disappear
This is my idea of Heaven lying here with you
This is my idea of Heaven nothing else I'd rather do
To feel you heart beating
To feel our lips meeting
This is my idea of Heaven ooooo
This is my idea of Heaven lying here with you

 | Pressure | Jan 21, '09 11:29 AM
for everyone |
During my performance appraisal yesterday, my boss discussed the ratings he has given me. One item there is about handling pressure. My boss, being the wordy that he is, told me in his lengthy (Haha! Understatement.) speech that he is yet to see me pressured; then I told him, I am pressured at times but i do not take it in.
Early this afternoon, one Embassy gave us problems to the highest level. They are kind of inconsistent with what they're asking from the workers and with what they have talked about with several of our company's representatives and the client. Now they are giving us headaches. Well, thing it is not a concern for myself. I mean I can handle it somehow but I feel really embarrassed to the candidates who all these time thought they have completed and complied well with the requirements as discussed to them last December.
I was really wondering, why in the world did the people from this Embassy not inform us that one particular document is a requirement so the candidates could have processed it ahead of time even waaaaay before the holidays last December? I somehow feel some pity as well as most of these people are breadwinners and they are really eager to leave as soon as possible so that they could provide for their family. And now, if we cannot do something about this requirement, these workers would be waiting for QUITE a time to process it and spend MONEY which is something difficult for them as of the moment as they are unemployed. Oh well! Power-tripping? Incompetency? I don't know. Sometimes, things are really hard to understand.
Could this be the pressure? Well then I hope I could cope up with it well. But I really feel bad for the workers.:(
It's been a long time since I last posted something on my most random thoughts of the moment. As much as I want my blog to contain some substantial information, it is so much fun to post about things which you thought of all through the day or just about this moment. So now I'm back!

There are several friends of mine who were fascinated with Britons. Haha! I don't know why their ideal mates would have to come from Europe but well, it's their prerogative, isn't it? I don't have such preference until I found out that Confessions of a Shopaholic will be out in the cinemas soon because one Briton guy, Hugh Dancy is there.
Hahaha! I never did like Hugh Dancy when I first saw him in Ella Enchanted. But heck! After several times that I've seen the film, I fell practically in love (Pardon my language)! Hahaha. But anyway, I don't love him, he's just so good to look at and he's not really handsome the first time you see him but that face, that way of speaking, it grows on you. I wonder why Jude Law never grew on me, though.
***
Speaking of Confessions of a Shopaholic, I told myself that I would never be get caught reading some sort of chick lit material but hey again! During my free time in work (when everything seems to be in place and all manageable), you'll catch me pouring my efforts into finishing Sophie Kinsella's book! I'd probably read the other books included in this series, but well, chick lit isn't really my choice of reading.

I just had an assessment of my crushes when I passed by one of my former crushes page in Friendster. As far as I can remember, all of the crushes that I have had in the past only fall into two categories: 1. The typical-hearthrob-somewhat-jerky type of guys who's pouring himself in NBA, incubus, gimiks, computer games, etc, etc; and 2. The weirdo. This category has no specifics as long as that person possess some oddness in his being.
Well, well. That's so funny. I'm having an inventory of crushes and to date, since Grade 4 when I really know what a crush is, I've only had like 7 real-life crushes (Of course, all those celebrity crushes and sudden I-saw-him-he-looks-fine crushes are not included here). I call them my serious crushes. (Haha! My friends are really laughing their hearts out when I mentioned to them that I have serious crushes apart from the normal crushes a girl could have. I'm weird, I know.)
***
Speaking of crushes, I wanted to post something but am refraining to do so because even if some people don't have multiply accounts, they would still be able to access this post, and I don't want to make this post private because it isn't.
***
In relation to crushes, I'm wishing my dear friends to have a blessed love life, especially those who will be (wishfully) getting married this year or next year. You guys know who you are! Hahaha.
***
And in relation to lovelife, since yesterday, I am being bombarded by headaches and I don't know where those came from. Earlier, when I was on my way home with a friend, I suddenly feel that achy-breaky headache again.
Too much PC?
Oh yes, I think I need to stop right now.
Since the weather is cold and I saw one of my friends' posts, grabe, I have to say this I MISS MY FRIENDS!!!
Huhuhu. If only I could gather and meet every single one of them, I'd do. I love my friends so, so much! | | Went out today to spend the remaining days of vacation by getting a bunch of books for reading this year. Hopefully I finish with my current reading so that I could start with these. Don't know what to pick first, though. |
 Just found this while searching. Haha. You might want to try the Twilight Quiz and see for yourself.:P | Believer | Nov 25, '08 8:53 AM
for everyone |
I'm a believer that all things work together for good for those who love the Lord. Sometimes nga, I ask myself the question, do I really love God that much that He would always be there to catch me everytime I would want to give up?
I've been really stressed the previous weeks. Well, I thrive best in stress, I just don't want other people telling me what to do when it is not evident in them that's why I have been so bothered and un-calmed.
Just when I thought of quitting because I feel like being stunted, a great opportunity was given to me by my Tatay. Hehe. Now I just have to fix things well, pray for it more, and prepare for it. Wow!
| | The time when digital photos aren't in. Hahaha! Grabbed this from Esther's Friendster albums.
Just when you thought you saw the de-glamorized me (Kelan ba ako naging maayos, anyway?), think again. This was the time of my most de-glamorized self. Kakahiya but hey! It was fun!:P |

WHEN: December 6, 2008, 10am
WHERE: Jesus Loves the Little Children Orphanage
19 A. Esguerra Street, Pinagbuhatan, Pasig City
With the help of your décor donations, the Edge Radio will spruce up an orphanage on Saturday, December 6 and bring true meaning of Christmas in a mission called:
“The First Day of Christmas”.
The game-plan: to visit an orphanage and spend the day decorating their home and spending time with the kids.
Interior Designer Pao Magsaysay will head the decorating team.
While putting up the tree, ornaments, wreaths, candy canes and Christmas socks, the very first Christmas will be recounted to the kids so that they, too, will know that Jesus is the heart of Christmas and that’s why we celebrate it joyously!
It will be a time of fun and enjoyment for the kids at the orphanage and for the kids at heart from the Edge. There will be sweet treats, games, stories and lessons to be learned as well as a very special “magic show” by JB Dela Cruz.
So if you have decor that you’d like to donate…
Or if you want to help out in other ways…
The Edge will be receiving your donations for the whole month of November.
Other ways you can help:
- donating sweet treats / food (good for 25 kids)
- donating art materials or cash.
- telling people about it.
- blogging about it.
- PRAYING FOR IT
For more information, you can or reply to this entry or send me a PM or contact The Edge Radio at 0918.959.EDGE or email Joyce at jaedeelight@yahoo.com.
