Have you ever experienced being so piss_d you wanted to kick someone in the a__? I did,just last night. Well I really did not felt kicking her, but If I was not able to control my emotions, I could have said several things that could deeply hurt that person's feelings.

Instead I chose to keep silent. I breath evenly, counted to 10 and tried to go back to sleep. Which was hard, but it worked. I just kept my cool.

Keeping the mind ahead of our emotions really helped. Ask certain question. If I shouted, what would she feel, what would others feel about me? If I was the one to be shouted at, what would I feel? Will this action have a future effect on my relationship towards that person?

Anger brings nothing good to people, so why waste time frowning and screaming your lungs out.There are plenty ways on how to supress anger.

Just to keep it short, just smile..laugh at yourself..you'll grow old faster if your grumpy..

Twilight Fever

Posted by Joie - Filed under , , ,

Last night I was not able to sleep early, because I have to discuss with my room mate about the fourth and last series of the Twilight Book Saga - Breaking Dawn. She haven't finished reading the book yet, but to avoid spoiling her, I tend to spill clues about what's going to happen next. Luckily, I was able to keep my mouth shut and controlled myself from not telling her what will be happening next.

Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Series was really a big hit world-wide. From the book to the movies, fans went crazy over it. Every collectible item from books, posters, movie guide,s audio books and other memorabilia, every piece was sold out.

Personally ,what I loved about the whole series is the story plot. it happens at present time but can adjust to the past and the present. the story has a classic appeal. And of course, who would not love to be wrapped around Edward Cullen's ( Robert Pattinson ) arms and be transformed into a vampire to share forever with him. Edward, the main protagonist in the novel is any woman's dream guy. He is perfect. He would take care of you, be his reason for living, make you experience things you thought were not possible and believed do not exist. OH, my, I'm starting to drool over Edward Cullen again..ha ha ha..
I really believe that this series will linger and will be a fever for many fans worldwide for a very long time. Many can't still get over the feelings Twilight brought to them, and many are anticipating and excited about the next movie, New Moon. Me too, I'm pretty excited. Hope it will push through the cinemas by November this year.
I can't help but wait..

She's getting MARRIED!!!

Posted by Joie - Filed under ,
Got a SMS just a while ago...one of my best girl friends ( a classmate from college ) is tying the knot with her boyfriend of two years this coming July (the guy is also one of my former college classmate ). I was not that shocked since my friend Nece has already told me about their plans on getting married. What surprised me is that I never expected it to be this early. She is not pregnant or anything, they just want to tie the knot.
It has been two years since we graduated from college. Some of us passed the board examinations a year ago, others re-took the exam, and mostly all of us are busy with our works and new found careers. Some are staying here and some outside the country. But in totality, I think most us are enjoying their lives as much as they could.
I have nothing against getting married at an early age. If love is true, why not settle down. Even myself have taught of getting married, I have asked my boyfriend several times on when he plans to marry me, or if he has plans of doing so, ( yah, I should have not did that, but were still an item so I guess I did nothing wrong). But now, after hearing the news, I'm having doubts if I would give a yes as an answer to my boy if he asked me formally to marry him now. Maybe its just pre-marriage jitters, or something else, but having realized all the things I would give up ( if there's any ) and all the things I need to prepare myself with before getting married, I'm having second thoughts on getting married right now.
i would just assume that I'm not emotionally prepared yet for settling down, and my friend Nece already is. but above everything else, I wish her happiness. I hope and pray for a beautiful and peaceful life ahead for her and her future family. I'll kick her boyfriend's back if he fool's around. (hiya!)

my blog's birth

Posted by Joie - Filed under , , ,

Today, January 27, 2009, is the day I finally decided to create and host my very own blog. The reason? I just have a lot of things inside me that needs a pouring window, in these case, the world wide web. Today is not a special day or a great day (except for the birth of my blog..lol..) for me. Actually I'm feeling quite down today. I was suppose to wake up early and exercise to trim down my weight ( hopefully by 10lbs.) but unfortunately was too lazy to get up. I almost arrived late for work. My boss hates me ( he always does ). My work is boring, and I feel stupid. Not that I am, but my mind is roaming around far from where my body is right now. So I guess I'm far from being stupid, just " out of my zone ".


If not for my blog, this day will just be one of those wasted days where I spend almost 12 hours sitting in front of my computer desk pretending to do something worthy for the day. But thanks to blog spot, I can now have a 15 minute or so intellectual time in my site everyday.


Come to think of it, I did something interesting today. I visited Chris Tiu's blog. (www.chris-tiu@blogspot.com), which is also one of the reasons I created my own blog. After reading some of his entries, I found out all the wonderful things blogging could offer , famous or not - an open diary , where you can pour your heart out ; a best friend, whom you can tell stories and experiences that made your emotions go in circles ; an advertisement area, where you can post stuffs you want to sell and promote things ; and a whole new world, where you can discover new things about you, life and everything under the sun.


So '" http://www.everyday-joie.blogspot.com/ will definitely be an everyday thing for me. 'Guess I will be making blogging a daily habit. Who knows, Chris Tiu might bump into my blog one of these days.


Till tomorrow...and everyday..
