 Laid-back Doers are friendly, happy persons. They enjoy being together with other people. Smart, eloquent, witty and charming, they like to be the centre of attraction. They do not like to be alone. Their zest for life ensures that others feel well in their company and that they quickly get to know people. Laid-back Doers get the best out of every moment - many people of this type have a gift for making their whole life one big party. Boredom is unknown in their presence because they are very good at carrying others away with their enthusiasm, their good mood and their optimism. Abstract thinking and profound philosophising about the meaning of life appeal less to Laid-back Doers. They are pragmatic, realistic and live completely in the here and now. At work too, they prefer it when it’s all go and they can act out their purposeful manner to the full. They have no problem handling several tasks at once and they blossom out in crisis situations! A varied field of activity with a lot of social contacts is just the right thing for them. One will also seldom find them inactive in their spare time; due to their open, curious nature, they mostly have many hobbies and interests. They are not afraid of the unknown: as they are flexible and creative, they quickly adjust to new situations and make the best of them. They sometimes come into conflict with strict rules or hierarchies by which they quickly feel constrained and against which they rebel. As friends, Laid-back Doers are generous, helpful persons who attach great importance to harmonious relationships and a good atmosphere. Their sociable manner means that they have a large circle of friends and they love having the house full of many different types of guests. They are happy to give in to their spontaneous moods and fancies in the just one or two important things. This makes them appear somewhat unpredictable to those with a quieter nature. When it really matters, you can rely on them one hundred percent. As partners, they are creative, impetuous and imaginative - as long as their partner knows how to fascinate them. They can hardly stand boredom or routine in a relationship. They do not like conflicts at all; if a relationship becomes too strenuous or involves too much effort, they tend to withdraw from the partnership and start to look for a new partner. However, if one manages to keep their curiosity alive in the long term and surprise them again and again, one has a loyal and loving partner.

Im not so sure where to start,let's see..Ok here:One day I was listening to Switchfoot,a contemporary christian band, while spending time with God and there's this song that really touches my inner being and i remember stoppping for a while and crying while telling God.. "Lord,you know how much I want to be a singer".. And as I continued to read His word,He gave me this.. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." -Jeremiah 29:11For sure almost everybody know this verse but of all the days and the verses and the chapters that i could have read at that time,it was these promises of God that He used to secure me and gave me more meaning to follow what He wants,still by His grace.And on July 28,2007.. I would like you to know that for the first time,i was more than excited for my birthday to come because I couldnt thank God more with how much He has changed me and captured me and if we come to think of it,I could reach 30 years old,married and already have kids but still havent resolved my personal issues,still insecure,bitter and still hurting.In short,my life could have just continued with no changes and no direction,only the years have passed.But no.. God has been so faithful to me as much as much as He is so faithful to other people that by the time I reached my second decade,I am free from hurts,secure by His love,have forgiven the people who has hurt me,wanting to make a difference and better than ever.And at that morning,I was wondering what God's word for me is and to my surprise,it was that Jeremiah 29:11 again,promising me that He knows my future and at that time.. I was more than convinced because I have seen His plans work in my life and in other people's lives and everyday,He just proves Himself to be faithful,more and more.And so.. I claimed His promises and I trusted Him that this time,He's gonna work out my music career.Well,it's not for fame or the mere pleasure of singing and playing and the lovely feeling of being adored,but this is where I can glorfiy God the most through my life.So one night,I had a go signal from God to write a letter to a friend who has been an organizer of local band concerts for years,telling her about my vision and asking her if she could manage me because as what Acel Vann Omen told me,I should look for a manager first.So she read my personal message here in multiply,hehe,texted me that it's a great idea and that she's willing and oh,she has also been texting me in my previous number asking me if I would like to work with her.cool.. So we set a time to meet sometime within the week.By the time that night came,I was asked to play for Samsung and I was supposed to recline due to exams and it was a short notice,we only had 2 nights to practice songs good for 50minutes but then I knew I had to obey God coz night cafe is such a huge crowd and Im sure He wants people to hear the message that He has given to me through the songs,plus++ I had this fieldtrip for my photography class in Bohol and this gig was also God's provision in addition to the amount i needed for the trip.So there,the meeting with Anne Sepulveda,who is now my manager,was smooth and we get along so well and just in time that I have a manager,we also have our first big time exposure.God always puts things into places at the right time.Regarding my fieldtrip to Bohol,I had like 70% of the money I needed and the money i would get from the gig would make it full and ready to go but... I had this problem,our boss was married and failed to give us sites to work on for two months and I have to pay a certain amount for my camera which i bought using my aunt's credit card,so i was thinking of not going to Bohol,instead just use my money for my camera because I wasnt sure then if our boss would give us work any time,and ofcourse,give back the money that i have solicited and for hours,i was settled not to go.. but in our classroom,while discussing about the trip and that was a day before the trip,I was battling,trying to make up my mind whether to go or not.Sad to say,if im gonna stay in CDO,i would still have to pass same requirement of those classmates who are going and that's a hundred photos of scenes,tourist spots and anything about Cagayan de Oro,take note,we are not aloud to go out of CDO whil they are in Bohol.Now,what am I gonna shoot at?? There's nothing much here compare to Bohol,we dont have century old churches or white beaches or chocolate hills,that means,i have to go and not just for the grade,i know God wants me to go because i have to establish my relationship with my classmates.So,i was praying and i told God, "Lord,you would give me the exact amount of the trip if it's not your will for me to go,right? Now,I dont care how you're gonna come through so I can pay my camera,I know that I should not worry about money because I believe that you can always provide".So there,I finally decided to go for the trip.Then.. here's the combo part,we got to the place for the gig and we had such a great time! It was amazing to see people standing on their feet,listening to us playing and hearing my testimony as I explaine each of our original composition and knowing that they were being given the chance that I once needed so much at one point in my life.After the gig,we were commended and told that we will be playing again.Isn't that great?? Then the morning came,first thing I did was to read this text message from Job,there it was written.. "we have new categories to work on".Woohoo!! Now Im at peace knowing that I can pay for my camera and I was off to Bohol that night,very excited and guess what?? The next day,Anne texted me if we're gonna accept the offer form Killerbee,a radio station,we're gonna do a live interview and play two of our songs,and that's gonna be next sunday! Then.. while enjoying Bohol so much and gaining alot of friends,knowing my classmates,on our way back to CDO,I got a call from Chuck,telling me that he's gonna book us to play for Samsung and that's this Saturday night!I wont stand infront of you and tell you that I havent sinned or failed eversince i started serving God,Im human and perfectly imperfect but God forgives and gives us unlimited chances but I can look at you,straight in the eye and tell you that.. God has really been faithfull to me and He has granted me the very desire of my heart,and that is to serve Him passionately with my life,to use me in any way He can and He joyfully trusts and sends me to places and situations, never failing to fullfill what He has promised.. and if God can do this to me,He can absolutely do this to you! Just surrender your life to Him and He's gonna handle everything.. your PAST,PRESENT and your FUTURE.
You see,this is what you get by obeying God.. BLESSINGS, BLESSINGS and MORE BLESSINGS.And when we come to think of it,we are capable of obeying God because He gives us more than enough grace to do so. These are just few of what God has done in my life but I just want to write it,hoping that you will be blessed.
June 2,2007 - It was a long and unforgettable day,my first ever wedding photo service,the official start of a photography career.Arnie and Lara's wedding took place in Malaybalay City,Bukidnon and I arrived there early morning to shoot the accessories that would be used in the ceremony and the day just went on and on.. Took alot of photos here and there and just took shots of whatever i see until the reception finished and i was able to finally say,atlast!! It's done but then.. i have a thousand pictures to sort but it was great anyway!After the preparation, the vows, the poses and celebration.. after everything,I saw Arnie, the groom who always made things very funny, always made the day very light and enjoying, the one who seems to never worry about anything because of his jokerous personality,went outside and cried.You know that everyone of us,when we're celebrating something very special in our lives,we always want the most important people to be there celebrating with us also and only Arnie's bestfriend Radel, his other frind Nico and Nico's grilfriend Rain were there to celebrate his wedding with him.His mom wasnt there for some reasons im not aware of.But there was something that Lara told me,she said Arnies parents are separated and the rest,i still dont know and so I understood Arnie completely and so did Lara expected that crying session,she said.I also grew up without a father,I was actually born without him.In my younger years,it was never an issue but as i was growing up,it was always a factor in everything that happens in my life.It made me so insecure,so rebellious,so hurt.. altough I understood that I am responsible for my life but i couldnt dismiss the fact that it has affected me so much.It made me less of who I couldve been if my father was growing up with me and this one i could really remember thinking about it over and over again.. coz i cant see myself with a husband one day,though I could see myself with kids but then I thought it would be better if my kids would live without a father coz it would make them wiser,or so I thought.Life was so hard for me until I surrendered my life to God.. when I recieved Him as my personal Lord and Saviour,He became my father first.It was then that I realized that He is able to give me the love,care, comfort, appreciation and satisfaction that I have always been looking for.The only one who mended my hurts and turned them into joy and lessons to learn and worthy to share.From that day I surrendered my life to God and really allowed myself to be moved by His grace all the days of my life,it was only then that I was able to make things right and started to be whole again.. mostly,it is only with God that I realized that my kids dont have to suffer the unecessary hurts I got by growing without a very important person in our lives,our father.A very important person in making girls become a woman and helping boys to become a man.I realized that when you surrender your life to God,He takes care of your past, present and especially your future.And that is why right now Im confident that God is going to give me a man after His own heart who will love me and our kids in the future.. becuase anyone who follows the heart of God,will for sure,do the best in everything and be excellent in every area.And when I think of Arnie,i dont pity him at all but im confident that he's gonna be a good father to his kids because I can see that he's a good husband and friend to Lara.. and so I believe that God is able to provide him a great future in this career of a lifetime,being a man for his wife and his family.. regardless of his past.Regardless of what kind of family we come from, it doesnt matter if at one point in our lives,we suffered so much the consequences of either of our parents' actions and decisions.. God is always able to work out things for the good and He will always be able to provide a great future for each and everyone of us becuase He always wants the best for us,we just have to trust and obey Him.. by his grace.CONGRATULATIONS ARNIE AND LARA!!!Thank you for this privilege,i really had a great time with you! God bless you both and your kids in the future
Today I woke up at quarter to 7 in the morning to meet up with my first ever client, Lara Dela Cruz and her husband.Went to Bo's Coffee and showed her samples of my photos and Im glad that she likes it.As we were browsing through my photos and spotting those that she likes, she finally decided that we're gonna have a prenuptial photo shooting.I suggested that we take it in Kaamulan Grounds since they're from Malaybalay.They work in Quatar and they already took their vows in a Civil Wedding but they're having their church wedding this time.Lara is cool,very easy to talk with and handle.Wow!! Im very excited to have my first photo service, especially that it's a wedding.I hope I can make it.I cant wait coz nothing beats the first time. Thanks to Ethel for referring me.. Thank you LORD!
