Interview with Myself

Came across this article i starred a few years back and worth reviewing and answering. Hmmm...let's check if there's any changes since.

From time to time, it's good to have a conversation with yourself -- maybe even an interview. This is how i do it.

First, i sit down in front of my computer while doing so many things in between and Michael Buble is on the background. 
Dear self, you are 41 years old. What do you have to show for it? Are you living the dream? ..nah! far from the one i dreamt of but at least leading into that direction.
As you look back on your life, what are you most proud of, what do you regret, and how do you feel about each of those things? 

i am proud of being me right here, right now. If i could change a thing, it would be to better the version of myself today. 

I don't have regrets. I try not to have one. I believe that i chose the best decision i have given the circumstance of that time. I feel great nevertheless with all the ups and down and the topsy-turvy life i lived and living.

Here are a few follow-ups:
  • What's next, self? ..i'd like to be freer and travel often. Study online and engage in farming. Have my own little house in the countryside with the twins and work at home. I chose to manage my time rather than time dictates me it's time to sleep or work or whatever

  • Why do you do the things you do? ..i feel joy in doing so and i believe i'm co-creating the world with the little things i can contribute

  • What do you really believe in? (What do you know to be true?) ..i believe we are all one. There is only heaven to go to after my physical life but i will be back reincarnated with my higher version of awareness. I believe that the world is kind and abundant and is filled with love. Love is innate and universal. We all want one thing: to love and be loved in return. I believe a day will come or it might have come and i'm just not aware. I believe religion is just another institution to make money and cage people and threaten them they'll go to hell if you don't pay your tithes and whatever. Love is freedom and freedom is love. That is all why we came here. To be able to experience and demonstrate that.

  • Where do you find your security? ..knowing that there is no guarantee in this life. I may be dead any moment while doing this. I may be disable tonight. Nothing can guarantee my safety. When it's time to go on, then we go whether or not i'm prepared or whatnot.

  • What bothers you, and what are you doing about it? ..it bothers me that people don't care much how they trample upon mother earth. How they take things for granted like water. The level of awareness of the majority is still superficial and i wonder when they're going to wake up and do something consciously. I do my share in taking care of the earth and valuing what really matters like avoiding plastic use, consuming organic and natural products, saving water whenever i can, etc.

  • What worries you? ..i'm worried that i'll die and i'm not even halfway through realizing my dreams. I'm worried for the day to come that my mother won't be here anymore as if there's one thing i'd like to freeze in this life, that would be having her while i'm here. ;)

  • If you had one year left to live, how would you spend it? ..spend most of it being in the forest, biking, waterfalls visits and having the best food i can have.
***

Of course, when you interview yourself, you can customize the interview however you see fit. The point is to make sure you know why you're doing what you do, and if you should make any changes. Simple, except when it's not.

How about you -- are you satisfied with your answers? Are you living the dream?

Where to EAT when in Bacolod City (my top 8)

I have been living in the City of Smiles for about 16 years now.  wow!  pamatyagan ko ngani hai iya eot ang nag-gueang. hahahahaha 

Sayod ko eon do ins and outs kumbaga iya sa ciudad.  Pero do akong utak makaron nagadaeagan sa kaean-an.  Mingko naging adik ako sa pag-adto sa mga kaean-an nga nababasa ko man sa ibang bloggers kaya ginasigurado ko gid nga hiadtunan ko man para masamitan. ;)  Abo ang mga bagay do pwedeng ubrahon sa Bacolod galing hai unahon ko anay do pagkaon dahil do Bacolod makaron nagiging sikat eot sa mga kaean-an.  Fud trip a do matabo kung sa Bacolod ka ;)  So, kung gausoy ka it kaean-an sa Bacolod hara ang mga highly recommended basta according to my taste and standard ha and not arranged according to who or what's best:
  1.  Malaspina Inasal - dahil kilaea do Bacolod nga Inasal Country numero uno imaw kakon.  Owa gid maw nagpasar sa akong standard it ambience pero sa lasa ag presyo, perfecto! ;) Makit-an sa corner it Lopez Jaena-L.N. Agustin Drive (formerly Malaspina Street)  maeapit imaw sa Guiness World Record' nga nag-iisang sementeryo sa tunga it daean ;) ag sa Circle Inn
  2. Rau Ram Cafe - authentic nga Vietnamese foods. Kung indi ka hiadto sa Vietnam for your entire life, at least have a taste of the their best foods made available here in Bacolod City. Barato eon, kanamiton pa.
  3. L'Sea Dimsum and Noodle House - mahilig ako sa noodles ag bisan indi kami magkita it humay basta may noodles ok eot ang ;)  Namian pa gid ako sa mga mahaeang nga pagkaon.  Sa L'Sea euwas nga accessible imaw dahil una sa Lacson Street ag madali maw usuyon dahil kaiping it first class nga L'Fisher Hotel, according sa akong taste buds hai sanda do may pinakanami nga pancit canton ag may chili sauce sanda kaya nami gid.
  4. Mai Pao - they have the best congee in the city. Medyo mahae do presyo pero kung sharing, okay gid. Hot and sour soup nanda namian gid ako. Crispy fried canton is also one of my best. Trivia: kung kilaea n'yo si chef JP Anglo, anang ginikanan ro tag-ana.
  5. Bob's Restaurant - sambilog sa mga orig nga restawran iya. Manami gid man do mga pagkaon ang do breads and desserts nanda hai puwede gid balik-balikan. Ro akong indi ma-missed orderon hai andang tofu. Fruit punch pa gid kanamiton. Kung main meal ing gusto, indi ka gid mapirdi sa andang baby back ribs.
  6. Maria Kucina Familia - ko late last year eang da napansin ko nga nagbukas. Pang formal dining. Manami do mga pagkaon pero bukon it masyadong manami sa buesa it nagatipid. For so many years, Bob's brick-oven pizza gid a ang paborito kung feel ko mag-pizza pero makaron hai napirdi eon imaw ni Kucina.
  7. Natural Garden Cafe of Welcome Home Foundation - i love this place kay "Barato na, Healthy Pa." Manned mostly by deaf persons so when you eat here, you actually help the deaf community too. They grow their own herbs and other veggies and they have their own bread house as well. I just love their food there. Closed though on weekends so you must come during weekdays.
  8. Kimstaurant - this is the best Korean restaurant for me. I can eat here daily. I especially love their kimchi jigae. Ahhhh nothing beats so far. Jajangmyun (black bean noodles) is also good and an all-time favorite along with samgyupsal. Their side dishes especially if they have the camote delight is heavenly.ü And of course, don't forget the melona ice cream. Ang sarap! ;)

Korean Dramas

Since i was introduced 5 years ago to Korean Drama, i never stopped watching. Empress Ki was my first ever exposure and since then i can't count how many i have watched. Nakakaadik naman kasi talaga. Minsan ang mga twists hindi mo aakalain hindi katulad ng Pinoy drama natin na alam mo na agad ang ending kahit 10-15 minutes mo pa lang pinapanood. Nakakaaliw ang mga istorya. At proud kapag nababanggit ang Philippines sa kanilang mga story lines. ;)

DramaFire.com talaga ako dati pa nagda-download pero itong nakaraang buwan, dismayado ako dahil hindi na ma-access ang kanilang website. Siempre todo tanong ako sa mga kapwa ko adik. At marami kami ha, in fairness. ;) Oppa, eomma, dongseang, appa, omo, aigoo, krumio, at iba pa. Memorized ko na.ü Feelingera nga ako na Korean na e. 

Anyway, nadiscover ko ang Kiss Asian. Buti na lang merong kapalit ang DramaFire. Dito mabilis din ang download basta sa search box andiyan ang drama na hinahanap mo. Scroll ka lang hanggang baba until makita mo ang "Click here to Download" and then mag-oopen ang isang window na RapidVideo. Ang "download 360p" lang ang dinadownload ko para mas mabilis. Pero kung feel mo ang HD at mabilis naman ang iyong internet connection, then click mo ang "download 720p". Mas maganda din gumawa ka ng account sa Kiss Asian para mas mabilis maghanap at mag-download. 

O siya mga kaadik sa Korean Drama, happy downloading. Maraming pop-ups ang site at hirap siya sa android, kaya desktop gamit ko. Block mo lang ang pop-ups sa security settings para hindi dumami ang malwares sa computer mo.

Life is

QUESTIONS FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT:
  1. If you could change one thing about your life right now, what would it be?
     
  2. What have you done or tried to do in the last 10 years to feel more alive, happy and fulfilled?
     
  3. If you could imagine living each day more authentically, more soulfully, how would that look and feel to you?
It will always be worth your time to stop, think, listen and define who you are on a regular basis. Look within for we are never without....

Best Printer

I am so annoyed since last week when our Brother printer that is barely a year old won't suddenly print. It's the all in one printer wherein puwede kang mag-print ng A3 and wifi and wireless printing is allowed. I used to have the old Brother printer/scanner too and more than the service, disappointments is more appropriate to define it. Dahil need sa work ang A3 printing, napilitang bumili and too late for the realization na Brother siya ulit. ;(

I'd rather have my Canon Pixma back although basic printer siya and Epson ones kaysa bumili ng isa pang Brother na ang customer service after sales talaga ay super failed para sa akin. Never again Brother!
