There’s nothing more exciting for a bunch of single women than talks of engagement rings. This is certainly what the ladies at the restaurant felt. They were gushing about the engagement ring one of them got the previous night. Well, that’s according to what my siblings and I were hearing. The ladies were so loud that most of the restaurant’s patrons were looking at them the whole time. My siblings and I were so annoyed that we cancelled our orders and went to another more peaceful restaurant.

Another busy weekend for his single lady here. Too many tasks to do for tomorrow. Everything concerning work. And for the house. I have to find a Hansgrohe faucet tomorrow. I have to do some grocery shopping as well. Not to mention the whole morning I will be assisting my cousin with the purchase of a new desktop. How I long for a weekend that will be all for having fun only, no worries about spending my hard earned money and will be spent with a handsome guy. Hmm…

What do you do when your bestfriend’s relatives tell you they do not like your bestfriend’s wife?

It as an awkward situation, to say the least. My bestfriend’s uncle told my dad about their dislike towards my bestfriend’s wife. They ranted about her and how they told her to her face how much they don’t like her. Apparently, they attended their wedding after my bestfriend begged his relatives. They’re the only ones he’s got left. His mother died a few years ago while his dad is now busy with his own family.

The relatives told the wife that they liked the ex-girlfriend better than her because the ex loves them and is close to them until now. While the wife does not even acknowledge them and is doing her best to brainwash my bestfriend against them. Actually the latter is the reason why their dislike for her was sealed. They learned that she was telling my bestfriend to stop helping them in any way.

Honestly, when I first met her, I am prepared to like her. It was a brief meeting at my bestfriend’s mom’s wake. And she was pleasant enough. Friendly. Her mom is the best because we hit it off instantly. Plus, even if she wasn’t that pleasant, I am prepared to like her out of loyalty to my bestfriend. We’ve been bestfriends for more than a decade already and I support his decisions in life. But when my sister and I stayed with the wife’s family a year before they got married, her true colors emerged. She really was unpleasant at times. I don’t know. Maybe it’s the woman in me who feels the woman in her. It’s like she’s really someone else but is hiding it well.

Oh well. I won’t tell my bestfriend about what his uncle told my dad. I don’t know how. I just wish that there will be a compromise soon. My bestfriend is a good man and he deserves happiness in his life. Not this rift.

Aargh! I’ve gained weight again I know, what do I expect when I am eating as usual instead of dieting? I really need those diet pills my friend is telling me about. I think I need it already. I could feel the effect of the weight gain on my back. I know that it is all my fault and that it is only I who could be blamed. A steely resolve is needed. And determination.

For a friend of mine who goes back and forth to vegas, it is a haven. He loves it there. No, he is not a gambler. He just loves the bright lights and the feeling of the place that it is always awake. He came from a provincial town that may account for his fascination with the place. I believe he is looking for a job there right now. He sure does love Vegas that much!

At the first kiss I felt something melt inside me that hurt in an exquisite way. All my longings, all my dreams and sweet anguish, all the secrets that slept deep within me came awake, everything was transformed and enchanted, and everything made sense.

I remember a co-worker who was lamenting back then how her husband refuses to work because he could not find the salary he wanted. He kept on asking for a salary that was too much for his qualifications. He wanted to get benefits fit for an executive already. You know what, it is fine to be choosy. But when you know that the reason why you are not getting work is because you are demanding something ridiculous, well, that is bad. People should learn how to compromise. That is what I learned looking for that elusive satisfaction before. I shuffled from one company to another and realized that there is no perfect company or job. Everything is imperfect. Compromise is the key.

Endowment Policies is the topic of the recent gathering that I went to last Sunday. I was surprised to hear about it considering the event was a children’s party. My goddaughter, Gab, turned two and her parents chose to celebrate it by inviting their friends and their friends’ kids. And because of the state of the economy nowadays, as well as the incoming presidential elections in the US… well, you can just imagine the discussion between the adults. It all centered on the economy and the state of living here in the country.

Anyway, I went to the table reserved for me and three of my friends. But since I was introduced as an accountant to the other guests, they thought they should ask me about finances while the kids were partying their hearts out. So we talked about exchanged rates, the bankruptcy news on Lehman brothers, interest rates soaring as well as the inflation rate here in the country, life, health, home insurances and even endowment policies! The discussion was quite invigorating because I never had one of those in years!

Well, it sure made attending the party worthwhile. Aside from the fact that I love seeing my godchildren, and Gab I haven’t seen in a while, I just love meeting and conversing with sensible people.

Is your company in need of a third party Vehicle reimbursement company? Mine does. You know, for quite some time now, the company I am currently employed part time is always complaining about the excessive reimbursements of its executives. I am doing consultancy work for them. And I was asked to reconcile of the allowances of its Chief Executive Officer. It was messy, to say the least. One executive has several allowances. Some of it are taxable, some are not. The most messy of all the allowances is the vehicle reimbursement. So instead of laboring over it again and again, the company is now thinking of getting the services of a third party company to help them with this allowance. Seven executives of the company are entitled to the allowance so you can just imagine the amount of work being poured over by three staff over these allowances every month.

Personally, a third party company to handle the vehicle reimbursement is a good idea. It will be impartial and given a clear cut criteria over what constitutes a legal vehicle expense, the third party company will be a better ‘guardian’ of the expense allowance. I am all for it! And as their consultant, I am pushing for the immediate implementation of this policy.
