the quality show




Bad weather and have a bad conscience meet together. While preparing my breakfast I was thinking the things happened for the past weekend.I feel bad and thinking regrets the words that I've said to one of my co worker. I have reasons! but why I felt this way.She cross the boarder line and I think it's unfair so I need to stop here. I lose my temper,life is hard and sometimes unfair.







I continue eating my bread and smell my green tea and take some deep breath. Things in my mind are all negative ...I watched TV for a while and take it easy.I know I came late to "quality show" today but I don't mind. I am thinking not to go but my 2 colleague waiting me in the central Gotheburg. Our ticket was paid by our employer.


























Hour 11.30 we arrived at the "show"that started hour 8:30. We looking around and asking information about "how they work with quality"in work. It's interesting, and informative of course. We took some brochure from different company,that we think it's useful for us.

This is the good side of Gothenburg companies because they are working always with quality.

going to the City














Cold wind, winter season is near as well as the first advent. I take a walk going to my acupuncture, this morning just to have fresh air. I have my warm sweater and winter jacket that makes me sweaty in spite of the cold weather. I still missed summer, the nice views of the landscape and the scent of the flower. Sweden is a nice place clean and not so populated and the air here are less polluted.

They have called "Eco driving" which means that you drive economically and released less carbon dioxide and environment friendly. Here people don't need to cover the nose, you really felt that it's clean in the air. After the treatment I went home to eat brunch since the time was hour 11.30. I ate bread with my favorite danish "salami" and tea. I was satisfied then and watch "ELLEN " show until it was finished. Then I decided to go out to the city to enjoy my day off just alone.

Curiosity!


Most of the people miss understand someone who are curious of something. We don't like to see one's our friend are too much anxious of our private lives. Of course it's not so funny! but I think a curious person could be a smart individual if he or she used it in different way.


If we think and compare to a child's world of curiosity that parents are proud of. The more the child is curious the more they will learn. It could be good and helpful to us being curious with something and have into positive things. In that way our daily life will improve into the top that we wish to reach on.


I even agree with others that "curiosity" is not enough tools to reach our ambition, but I insist that it's the way that we have better and learn something new. Don't be afraid if you find yourself that you are "curious" one used it and good luck! you have a long journey.

How different life is across the universe


At living in the country with high standard takes time of patience. Everything is new that you need to learn from the beginning. It doesn't matter how old you are and your standard status in your country origin. Things change here in abroad, "welcome to the real world" as friend of mine used to say. For the other hand it was nice learning new things,because I do love challenge in life.


One summer, my husband teach me how to ride a bicycle but it never succeed. It's been awkward situation that I am 37 years old started to learn "bicikleta". I told my husband forget it! I preferred to walk into my workplace than riding a" bike". Yeah! sounds strange idea but I'm afraid and I have no control of my balance.


I find myself a hopeless situation, and thinking why I never learned me this things when I was a child. It was not so important on that time to have a "bike" parents was prioritised food in the table. In short problem with money. Poverty! hard to explain that you cannot do about it. all things in my country cost money most of all to educate one child. Money...money..money..

That's it! unlike here that parents could buy everything whatever their children wanted to have. Toys,computer and even own TV in their respective "own bedroom". This is one reason I missed it when I was a child.


They have a good government system here,parents receive help from the state if they have child which they called it "child support". At 18 years old, most of them leave their parents and find to be independent. Parents are not own them to send college or whatever. Young adults decide oneself of what they wanted to do with life.. It's called "teenagers" freedom.

look at oneself in a mirror.


We are just human,could be a good person or the opposite one. If your working it is so often that we heard from our coworker complaining unnecessary things. Talking against from their coworker who is off duty even if without purpose. These are an examples of different kinds of behaviour that we are today. It doesn't matter what race you came from, or in what place living in. We are good at judging each others fault.


We do our very best in order to fit in the group and get famous. Unexpected things happened you did mistake and people try to down you. Until they all forget the "good things"you did before. Why is it so easy to judge people? Hope that every body will look at oneself in the mirror before they judging someone else.


Please be kind to every one.!

Christmas is near


I'm still not understand how it goes so fast. It's now November and the summer was just disappear just like that. I think everybody noticed that days pass quickly.November 1st was all saints day, time to light candle with our love ones who has passed away.

I felt sad that I have no opportunity on that day. I was working , here I still don't know if they have called "public cross"as I know we can light candle to those relatives that was buried in some other places. It's not really easy sometimes living far away from the home country. Anyway I did told my family to light candles and have mass for my "mother" who passed away back 31 years ago and so with the soul of some relatives.

November here in Sweden but yet no Christmas decoration in every street. They have late "Christmas here" as I interpreted last 3 years ago. FM station does not play Christmas music.

So different in the Philippines, beginning month of September you already feel the spirit of Christmas. Open the FM station and DJ played Christmas music,which I missed a lot as well with Christmas carol(house to house) it was fun.
