I remember how you walked away
Even when I tried to call your name
See at first I didn't understand
Now you're lookin' like a lonely man
I remember how you did me wrong
And now you're hurtin' cause my love is gone
Everybody gets a chance to burn
You can take it as a chance to learn.
I really wish you wouldn't send me gifts
Tryin' to make me sit and reminisce
Tryin' to blind me with your blingin' bling
Thought I told you love don't cost a thing
Hope you realize that now I'm through
And I don't ever wanna hear from you
I had enough of bein' there for you
Now I'm laughin' while you play the fool
Ain't it Funny?
Okay, Mr. Cadillac - I think it's time for you to get your ass up and move on. So, you like to read my livejournal, check my Friendster daily, and then snoop around through my online albums & be sure to leave your fucking comments. You know, we used to be cool and then you had to turn around & get all gangsta about everything. I should've known it was coming, it's in your nature to be this way - it shouldn't even surprise me anymore. I'll tell you this much, your freaking threats, your gangsta ways - you don't scare me anymore and I'm glad I got up and left. I always told you that I'd be there for you, for anything, after all was said and done, on the condition that we'd remain FRIENDS - nothing more. And I meant it, but then you suddenly get all weird and complicate things. I've moved on and I'm not turning back. You fucked with my last relationship, and as much as I hate to break it to you, this one's for good. If this is the only way to get through to you, so be it. I'm sick of arguing, I'm sick of yelling, and I'm just sick of hearing your voice. I hate your drama & I hate who you've become.

Nash named MVP for the SECOND time.
Fuck off Kobe, quit your shit already
Luck doesn't come twice consecutively.
Game 6 tonight - Nash has gotta put up
with Bryant's whining without Bell to stop it.
Phoenix may walk away without a win,
but NASH still remains the Most Valuable Player.
NBA's best Point Guard right now - AND WHAT?
I love this game :)

So, today marks the last day of my manager in our Winnipeg branch. She's being transferred back to our Toronto after driving our Winnipeg branch through many great successes. I'm really REALLY sad to see her go only because not only did we establish that professional relationship, we also had a very close friendship on a personal level as well. She's been a great mentor over the last few months & has given me the opportunity to demonstrate my skills in Human Resources - an opportunity which would have never graced my path if it wasn't for her. I just want to wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavours, even if you decide to part from our great corporation.
All tears aside, it's just my luck that there is an opening in our Toronto Branch for an Operations Manager as well. It's up for grabs & since our team worked so well in Winnipeg, She & I both know that we could drive Toronto into great success as well. I am currently contemplating my personal obligations with this career opportunity and I am literally exhausted. With the ongoing mass recruitment that immediately took place following my trip to Dallas, I am swiped. I'm torn because I have so much to consider - my fiancee & our Aden, my family, my kiddies, our home. It's aggravating, but it would be for the best. Toronto generates SO much more revenue than Winnipeg because it is such a bigger market - meaning bonuses & remuneration are much higher. I will definitely have to take the weekend off to think about everything.
In the meantime, I am excited to drive our Winnipeg branch to success this upcoming quarter. The orders have started to flow in & it's just a matter of working hard to ensure that all the orders are filled. I know that because there is now only myself in the office, our DM was looking into hiring another person on a temporary basis. If anyone knows of any great recruiters who have experience in Mass Recruiting, please let me know! Also, there is an opening for a Branch Sales Manager. If anyone knows of any individuals who are Sales driven and possess 5+ years in HR, give me a shout. As an Operations Manager, I am unable to leave the office to promote & sell the business, so a sales partner (as good as she) would definitely help grow the business.
And would've thought that at 22 I would be at the beginning of my career in a more-than-comfortable position? I run my own office, deal with clients on a daily basis, and manage more than 500 employees. It gets real hectic at times, but I'm only obligated to daytime hours & am entitled to about a month of vacation per year. I also get to travel about 3-4 times a year. Being on salary also allows me to outline our expenses & anticipate how much will be left in our account at the end of the month. I can't complain, I have it real good right now & bet your ass, I deserve every single perk, day-off, and bonus I acquire through it all. I've been through hell & back again and now it's MY time. God has truly blessed me & has provided the Retro for all the bad that has happened during the last 4 years.
For everyone who can't be happy for me, screw you.
Good things happen to good people. If it hasn't yet come to you, it's pretty self-explanatory.

it's been a hell of a looong time since i've last updated this thing - an entire year plus three months to be exact. so much has changed since then - relationships, work, education. i don't even know why i would take the time to update this, but i'm at work and i'm bored. the excitement has been accumulating inside me and i feel like a bubble that's on the verge of bursting. i have been extremely blessed this past year, in all aspects of my life - love, family, career, and friends - and it just keeps getting better. i have no regrets, nor am i harbouring any ill feelings. it's been a long and winding road, but it was well worth the wait. i've learned to let go of the past and look to the future, learned that my health takes far greater precedence over my wealth (the close ones know what i mean), and my family will always remain my greatest pillar of strength. in the last year and some i've become a woman, whole-heartedly, and have taken on responsibilities that individuals my age could only dream of. and let me tell you this - i wouldn't trade it in for the world!
first of the good news - i've been blessed another niece. my brother and lani gave birth to a wonderful little girl by the name of Mia Francisca Reyes on january 16, 2005. She'll be turning one next monday and is by far the cutest little lady i've ever seen.
secondly - i've inherited a step son as of march 15, 2005. his name is Aden Kobe-Kai Mariano and is the most wonderful, most charming, and by far, the cutest little boy (next to my Marky). he's brought a lot of happiness into my life and i treat him like my own. aside from inheriting a step son, i guess i can incorporate the inheritance of his father as well - i'm now fiancee to the most wonderful man, mr. Justin Andrew Mariano. our wedding date is set for June 2, 2007 and i'm extremely excited to become his wife. he has been nothing but good to my family and myself - and has won the heart of little Marky, which was a huge deal to me. he's brought nothing but good luck since we've been together. this feeling is amazing!
okay, i'm willing to babble on further about my phenomenal life stories, but i guess it'll have to wait. i have candidates who i have yet to interview. adieu.

Holy, it's been how long since the last time I wrote anything on here. I've been too busy with everything - work, school, work, work, school, boyfriend, family, work. maaaan. In addition to our already-huge family, we have two more little ones - one that was born October 27, 2004 (who I desperately want to steal from her mom) and another one who's coming January, end-of/beginning of February. But don't worry little ones - Auntie's almost done Christmas shopping. I have yet to receive little Marky's p.i.m.p parka, which I ordered online.
My life could not be any better. Ry & I are off to sunny Jamaica at the end of December. My job rocks - I get paid to shop for clothes and shoes online (the collection has quadrupled since I started here - eeeK) My family is the strongest-bonded family ever - both the immediate and extended. My bestfriend is the most incredible person on the face of the earth, cause he still spoils my ass like madd - "Wood grain with the leather seats..." That Caddy's leavin' daddy, I'm tellin' ya. hahaha. Annnnd, school kicks ass right now. My GPA sounds something like 4-double-izz0 Hot Damn. Nothing could be any better - but I gotta tell ya,
I'd still trade it all to have my Lola back =/
I know Stacey, we gotta let things go, but I can't help but hurt. It's an empty-sick-to-your-stomach feeling that's permanently embedded in the pit of your chest. What can you do though right?!? We'll meet again Lola... "Everytime you go ayyy-waayyy." haha.
Soo, gameplan for tonight? I think I'm going to the club for the first time since forever just cause my homies Ill-Lena, JizZzen, JaEzeL are hustling my ass to get out and party with them. It's different now though, I feel like a 40-year-old in a 21-year-old's body. What can you do, this body has retired from the endless days of partying that occurred both last and this summer. I think I permanently damaged both my brain and body these past two years, I think it's about time I stopped all intense partying. (Although this last birthday was definately something else...)
Okay, so I'm down to the last 35 minutes of my shift and I'm getting hungry so I think I'm gonna go and put Mr.Toonie into Mr.Vending machine - or I can wait, after all, it is McChicken day.
Teej, you gotta come back already - I'm tired of eating crappy junk after work. I need the twice-a-day lobster & sushi combo. Heeee ;D

"Take my money, my house, and my car,
For one hit of you, you can have it all.
Cause making love, everytime we do,
Girl it's worse than drugs, cause
I'm an addict over you..."
It's been over a month since my last entry and already things have changed so much. I'm now working only 3 jobs - one full-time, one part-time, and a casual - and must I say, it freakin' pays :)
So that makes what, work and boys - As for the gym, I'm STILL on schedule... 2 hours a day, 6 days a week and I'm feeling better than I ever have in my life. I eat way too healthy for my own good and I can actually do a FULL hour's worth of cardio. HURRRAY for me I guess. *note the sarcasm.
As for the girlfriends - Can they get any better or what. My girlfriends are the most wonderful people in the world. I can't even begin to tell you how good they are to me. And there are no limits, no boundaries - NOTHING, just friendship - just the way it's supposed to be.
Can my life be any more satisfying?!? YES. My family. My strength. My freedom. My love. I love it, I love them - all of them, from Mama and Daddy to Maliya and Mase. It only gets better with them. I would trade all the money in my accounts, all the shoes in my closet, and all the credit on my cards for the love of my family. These are the the kinds of relationships that are, as cliche as this sounds - PRICELESS and I love it. To think, it's only just begun - as time passes, our family will grow, just as our love has over the years.
To think, this is the first time I have ever felt comfortable in my own skin. I wish for all of you to, one day, feel the same - if you haven't yet felt it :D
God Bless.

okay so i did this stupid name crap and these are my results. well, i'll be. a bitch? not really so much anymore. people envy me?!? questionable. i rock?!? hahhaa. ngeh, i should really stop reading into things too far, especially little things.
moving along, today was an A W E S O M E day. one of the best among the ones i've had so far. a lazy day, nonetheless, a gRRReat one. regardless of just being lazy, i STILL had the willpower to hit the gym. even you can't stop me. hehe.

okay, so i'm in class again. it's wednesday morning, where the h-e-double-hockey-sticks else would i be? i'm really starting to hate computers. all i do is type, type, type away. will it never end? eeeeeK. what the hell, this is what i'm going to be doing from 9-5, 5 days a week for a whole year? man, what the hell did i sign up for? ahahha. it's alright though, only one more year till i can finish that year and a half i have left of nursing. then my friends, i can finally be rid this stupid keyboard
i just REALLY needed to let that loose, and talking, let alone S C R E A M I N G in the computer lab is strictly prohibited. i thought these rules only applied to students in middle school =S
okay, so besides this class, i only have a remaining 3 classes, a CPR basic resuer's course (one day), 2 MedTrans finals, and a 4-day practicum to finish then i can call it quits. this year seemed longer than it was, but i can tell you this much - success three inches from your fingertips never felt so freakin' good. it was one heck of a tedious year, but hey, i pulled though it - 4.25 gpa and everything.
well i think that i should go back to finishing the last of my assignments. the plan was to get outta here by 10, so i can hit the gym and beat the senior citizen lunchtime rush. so it's not happening, i'm guessing that i'll be running tread between gill and hank again. what did i ever do to deserve this?
till next time boys and girls... God Bless.

i'm at school waiting for lor to finish her assignments so that we can take off. 10 more classes and 4 days of practicum and i'm officially up and outta school, maybe not forever, but for a while. it's been one tedious school year, but it'll be well worth the effort and all that work once i land a good job. i'm so excited.
anyway, yesterday i went to the gym just as i usually would, but man, old men are soooo creepy sometimes. "hi, what's your name and would you like me to show you how to really work out?" yuck. i'll never go at those times of the day ever again in life. also, what's with some guys? many of them have freakin' complexes. i felt like telling this one guy to put his arms down, the whole "walk with scrunched up shoulders like your big" thing doesn't do the trick, it only makes you look stupid. pardon my language, but seriously - and this guy was s k i n n y. ehh, gotta take what comes with the gym though, right?!?
and as for last night. i had one of the best msn conversations that i've had in a long time. it was with markus or adotkdotadot CoastalFlip204@asianavenue.com. hahaha. surprisingly enough there ARE still intellectual filipinos who have more interests than the mere honda civic souped to shit rice rockets. i mean, this guy is an avid reader of Palahiuk's novels and he actually likes reading for leisure activity. he also does movie reviews, adores his mother, shares a home with his 14-year-old sister, and get this, coaches a junior high girls' basketball team, and enjoys it. man, that is by far the closest filipino to a white man i've ever come across. and to top it all off, he isn't the stereotypical bald-leatherwearing-civicnationfreak-blingblingmoneyaintathing filipino from the maples. it's good to know that there is another white-washed potatoe nip out there. *high five buddy!
anyway, she's just about done so i'll leave it at that.

" All my life, I've been searching for you.
Everyday, so glad that I found you boy.
On my mind, I've been feening for you.
Everyday, I'm so happy baby. "
okay. okay. so i'm a little on the corny side right now. whatever, i'm happy and that's all that really matters. i can't remember the last time that i had a permanent smile on my face, it's ridiculous. ehhh, whatever, i think that it was about time that stacey got her break in life. in due time, i'll have it all together again.
i realized something last night. On August 18th of 2000, i officially became involved with the scum of the universe. it was then a new chapter in my life began. little did i know that this chapter was going to be the longest, and contained in its pages would be the most painful and agonizing moments of my life. that chapter finally came to an end on December 21st of 2003. it was that night i confronted the monster which had haunted me for over 3 years, it was that night my family's worst nightmares had become a reality, it was on that particular night that i could've lost my lifetime hero, my brother.
our family is very blessed to still have my brother around today. i think that's why i have such enormous faith in the Lord. it was from then on, the beginning of a new chapter, that i had been blessed to have crossed paths with nothing but great things. i've so far been blessed with family, school, friends, and love. as cheesey as this is to say, i think i might have even found my soulmate. we've so far experienced more love than most people would come across in a year. for all you who have known me personally for the last umm, let's say 14 years or so, know that my relationships are usually with pathetic, abusive losers. i know now that you shouldn't go out and search for love, it'll find you on its own, at the most unexpected times might i add.
well i gotta go and do some homework before heading off to work :|

i'm at school and it's boOoring. what can you do? all i do all day, everyday, is type away at this stupid keyboard. holy heck.
anyway, i take back almost all of what i've written in the past. i have to admit, just over a month ago i had harboured ill feelings towards many people, eventhough i had written that i hadn't. i've experienced way too much these past couple of months to be wasting my time being angry at other people. much of what has happened has been very lifechanging. besides, graduation is just around the corner, i know what my priorities should be.
all i know now is that i am very blessed. i had lost touch with my Lord for a long time, but following december 21st's agonizing events, He called me up wanting to touch base. from then on, corny as it sounds, we've become inseperable. we have weekly Sunday dates. i also meet with Mary on Thursday evenings. i know, the change was drastic, but it was longing to happen - and it did, just as i was striving to hold to my last ounce of faith.
beginning of the new year started off rough and i was angry for so many reasons. i have to admit that i no longer harbour ANY ill feelings towards anyone. hate me, great, even more of a challenge for me to love you. as the Lord has said, "Love your enemies, as loving only those who love you back comes with no reward. It is the love of your enemies which will be most fufilling." It's true. man, this Jesus character surely is smart. Haha, wow, my jokes aren't quite what they used to be. Now, three months into the new year, i find myself crossing paths with nothing but good nature. as fun as the past two years have been for me, we all know that i wasn't exactly the nicest person.
anyway, i gotta finish my assignments now. time to head on outta here.
Patience is a Virtue. thank you mr.ryan.burchat for proving to me exactly that ;)
