- From meeting someone new and realizing that I've probably overshared - and now I'm overthinking if they have already judged me the wrong way.

- It's the unfinished irrelevant tasks that keeps on whispering [me] to stop napping and to start working.

-It's the unrequited love from the past - trying to remind me that I'm I don't deserve love.

- It's the humans who already saw a glimpse of my flaws and damages, and now I'm overthinking how to make them like me.

- From experiencing many failures and thinking I don't deserve to live.

- It's the lonely nights, when I have no one to share how bad my day went, and now sadness is taking over, and dark clouds are hovering me.

Dear Andrew, 

I know you don’t celebrate Valentines Day before you met me, I know you think that it’s a huge waste of resources -- but still, you do it for me and I would like to say THANK YOU. 

Thank you for making sure that I don’t feel alone today. Thank you for consistently sending me flowers to make sure that I feel special and beautiful. Thank you for staying awake a bit longer last night to greet me a “happy valentines day”, to make sure you’re the first to do it.

Thank you for making me remember all the small stuff that make our relationship work. Thank you for making me happy. 

I know these words are not as expensive as what you’ve spent for the last couple of years -- but I hope I was able to make you feel loved and happy. 

It has been an amazing life with you, I hope we can celebrate Valentines Day together someday and I promise I won’t cry if you don’t buy me flowers. HAHA. 

BACKGROUND:

Last July 1, 2018, Andrew proposed to me after 55 months, AND so we’ve both decided to get married on December of 2020. I’m so excited to jot down our adventures, from listing down all our options --to narrowing down our choice.

 I’m the wedding planner, more or less our wedding is DIY , this blog will be about the 2year journey!

Dear Martee,

You may grow up taller than us, even bigger and stronger than us, but whenever you feel that you’re NOT, Ate Maica and I, will try our best to be MORE, just for you. 

We’ve already accepted you are truly growing older, and with that....I think, we’re also growing out of your heart. Even then, we will make sure that our hearts will never be too small to love you. And;

Remember that, we try our best to be an example for you.  

I hope as you grow older and wiser, I hope you never forget home, and how much home likes to spoil you. Never forget, that home is family. 

As you enter your third year, in PMA, may you treat your hardships as your foundation for growth, and may the difficult life you have now, keep you grounded as you try to reach for the sky. 

Mama, ate maica and I, may not be your favorite people anymore, but rest assured, after papa, you own a big chunk of our heart. 

We love you, always. 

Organized by Indigo Research 

1. Because Artificial Intelligence is part of Forbes.com’s “Top 10 Trends For Digital Transformation In 2018″ (scroll down to # 6).

2. Because there’s more to AI than robots. 

3. The meetup/unconference is organized by the Indigo Research team, and Launch Garage team.

4. Because this event is the perfect place for you to ask the speakers who are also “subject matter experts” (RE: Machine Learning and Natural Language Programming) - FOR FREE.

5. The organizers make sure that the talks are friendly for everyone, which is also a good way to get started w/ AI when the only thing you know is the acronym.

6. Because the organizers are serving beer and (S&R) pizza :D

33/100

My job requires me to interact with humans on a daily basis, may it be thru face-to-face, over email, over social media, etc.....you name it. It gets tiring, especially, if you’re a fake extrovert, like me. hehe. 

So what’s my secret? Reading books like “The Rules of People”. 

I’m on my 33rd Rule and its about how to be a better person, when a friend or anyone in your life shares their problems to you. According to the book, they don’t need your immediate solution - unless otherwise it’s directly requested. People need to know that what they’re feeling is super normal, and they need to hear your validation of support (e.g. It’s okay to feel upset or I understand your bitter sentiment). 

To commemorate my latest achievement, below are my favorite lines:

Don’t think better, think different

Make every employee a marketing person

Go where others aren’t

Who is setting your standard? Your Ego? Your Industry? Your Clients?

The entire listening experience is a total of 96 minutes, and it took me about 2 days to finish. In case you’re wondering, I’m using Scribd (free 1st 30days – then you pay for 8.99$/month after).
