Plans

I'm cooking a plan and I will execute all of those in reality this December or early January. I'm  just collecting my thoughts and reflecting myself to be on the path I used to have.  For now I'll equip and prepare myself to be tougher.

:)

I barely remember your last day here on earth as well as the last few words you've said to me. I just wanna say I miss you so much, plain and simple with big smiles on my cheeks.

Happy 8th Month :)

HP Run 2013: Running with my Officemates.

“Run for Fitness. Run for a Cause”. Last Sunday, September 1, 2013 HP community and organizers opened the much anticipated event to the public with bigger venue held at Mercato, BGC and proceeds will be given to Tenement Elementary School to build classrooms.

Knowing that funds will be benefited by students, participants we’re rest assured that the project will be accomplished and built in time. Integrity is one of HP’s core values.

Reflection : Conversation with You

I sincerely thank you for giving me the wisdom and courage to be part of You once again. I’ve been in shadow of uncertainty of your existences for quite some time but you’ve shown signs of forgiveness and love unto me. You humble me by your grace thru enlightening me with one of my travels. You’ve taught me about “simple things” in life that I most of the times neglect. Life is simple and happiness can be found and felt by just appreciating the things, events and people that surround you, open your heart and accept it willingly. Forget the gravity of too much thinking about responsibilities, relationships, stresses and other form of burden in life, lift it up and let Him lead the way. I let him lead my way.

I’ve once attended an intimate mass and religious talk conducted by a well known spiritual leader and priest in the country. I’ve learned and touched by those words I’ve heard. You’ve once again tap me to Call your Name, remind me that I am not alone, I can share to you my pain, my longing and my great lost.

I felt your Holiness, the weight in my heart lighten as I’ve learned to accept you [again] in my life.

Lord God, may I seek your forgiveness for those days that I am weak and unsure with your presences, I modestly offer myself to you as I surrender everything to you. Everything…

Cleanse my soul, heal my pain, take away my worries, lift up my burden, help me accept my lost and forgive all my shortcomings.

As I communicate with you today, I am happy to share my insights to You. May you bring a message to my beloved Lola Mommy, tell her that I miss her so much. I really do.

She connected me to You and I thanked the both of you for inspiring, guiding and enlighten me all throughout.

I made choices now with openness and balance.

And I say Thank you.

Time for You

Running: My Journey on the road

Ever since I've started to change my life style, running was the first form of exercise I've done to trim down those excess body fats I have. Recommended by my Nutritionist and Gym Instructor, I do run 2 to 3 times a week in Quezon City Memorial Circle, rain or shine, in [body] pain or tardy times I kept on mind “I must run to improve my breathing and for the great change I wanted”.

Dreams do come true

Quezon City International Marathon

(re-posting)

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here in Tumblr. I would like to share my first “half marathon” experience last December 2, 2012 at Quezon City Memorial Circle.

The event was entitled 4th SMDC Quezon City International Marathon. I run for 21 K category. I’ve been preparing for the said marathon because I wanted to try and finish a full marathon maybe next year. Going back, it’s been a month long training of running (thrice a week), proper diet and enough sleep as well as reading some guidelines about running properly.

Investment 1 on 1

Almost two days ago, Kuya Aron , a businessman dropped by our house to asked me regarding my investment “ Musta na shares mo”

His direct question caught my attention, I immediately replied “So far, yung isa malaki na ang tinubo, yung isa naman may mga araw na talagang lugi”

“naka isang taon ka na” he responded aggresively

“Ay oo nga no” and I smiled to him.

We are talking about my investment in the Stock Market. Let me share my story on how I started with it.

October 10, 2011, I requested my Dad to accompany me to visit Philippines Stocks Exchange in Ortigas, I opened an account in CitisecOnline now called COL Financial, Inc. My initial investment was 5000 pesos and every month I religiously invest certain amount of money. My vision and goal is to see how my money will grow over time using the said vehicle – stock market.

DMCi holdings, one of my preferred companies is performing well in the market, as of yesterday I gained 19.10% while Metro Pacific Investment Corporation (MPIC) is now -2.87% loss, not bad I know for fact in time the company will grow and multiply its profit.

And I must say my money grows significantly in stocks compared with my savings account in the bank. I am a firm believer that “let your time works for you”. Invest as early as today and in the future your patience will be paid off.

“Smart investing everyone”

Smart Investing

I have researching, reading, attending seminars and inquiring about “Investment” in the past few months. To set my goals on track, I must have the two vehicles to drive my future in good faith (you will know it later). I have already my Savings in the bank and bought shares of stocks in one of the leading stock broker company in the Philippines.

The Untold Story

(March 18, 2012)

Last night, actually last midnight I’ve been reunited with my high school classmates [Perry, Nino, Norwin, Rowie, Dick and Carol (Dick’s wife)].Nino invited me to hang out with them. I've told him that, I won’t promise but I'll try to come.

So, I’m just thinking, I miss sharing stories with them, so I confirmed that I’ll grace their event.

With You

Finally, after a month of longing we’ve met. What a relief to be with you liked before, just besides you sharing old and new stories. Thank you for always listening to me and now, I am joyful that you’re healed eternally with our Creator. No pains and worries just happy thoughts of us, your family. In His perfect time we’ll be together and by that moment, our shared happiness will be forever.

I'm lost and I wanted to start all over again. Feeling the emptiness without you, I simply missed you and I know for a fact that you always want me to smile and be strong. For you "I will". I'll do the things that pleasure and challenge me like the same old days.

Thinking Out Loud : Marathon

Here I am again, attempting for the second time a full marathon that will be held at the seaside area of Mall of Asia (MOA). Remembering my first victorious effort makes me realize how tough that race was. But then again, will try my very best to beat my own personal record.

I will be stronger by training hard and be triumphant with this dream marathon at 38th Milo Marathon (Elimination).

After this, I will level up by advancing with the second phase of my dream sports.

Hopefully by the mid of September will purchase that item and do the hardcore training.

A test of endurance and determination. Wish me luck with my endeavor as I progress and fulfill my dream sport.

Speech

Graduation Season is in the air and I’ve read lots of statement of those students who will soon enter the corporate world. Majority of them says that having a higher grade, recognition and a “title” won’t matter as long as you received your precious diploma.

Thought

Thank you Lord for giving me the chance to know them better and my sincerest gratitude for separating me from their foolish characters. I know where I belong, you are truly amazing You never failed to enlighten me whenever Gray days are there.

For Lola Mommy

You are my soul mate and you are my everything.

Please say you'll stay and I promise to hold you till my last breath.

I am willing to give my life for you, just assure me that you'll live long for me and for us.

I love you more than I do.

and I am thankful that you feel the same way too

You are my strength and my only inspiration to be ON TOP.

people says that "I can't make it" but you believe to me that "I can make the impossible, POSSIBLE"

Thank you for being my friend, my best friend, my listener, my love, my partner, my mother and my beloved Grandmother...

I want the whole world to know, How much I care for you. I am willing to give up everything just to be with YOU

I love you in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening before we go to bed to sleep... and I love you in the days that follows

I love you and I will say it till Im exhausted saying it.

Please stay long and dont tell me words that will crash my world, YOU are the center of my life next to HIM.

Please be with me, hold still till I have reach my dreams and let me show you the hardworks that I have accomplished.

it is all yours.

Hold on a little bit longer. Be with me everyday... I promise to go home early as you always wish...and make you sweet coffee in Mid Morning

-I get emotional one rainy morning when I woke up and sit beside her, she said "Paano ako pagnamatay ako, Ikaw na bahala sa akin ah"

I sobbed quietly and told her “Oo naman ako bahala sa’yo”.

And I hold her hands.

Thoughts

have you ever waited for something or someone that you are longing to have, and you devoted your life and precious time to achieve it but at the end, the long wait is worthless.

Believing, hoping and praying for a miracle to happen for that special moment to come even if you know to yourself it is not meant for you but still you hold tight fooling yourself it will come true

mixing reality from day dreaming is hard to resist as if it is the only way to be in the world that you wanted. A world full of promises that compromise your dreams.

In time, in perfect time you realize with yourself that you need to move forward and set free of your worries and fulfill your dreams on your own. Dreams that will define your worth and existence according to your preferences.

No one can stop you from believing what you know is right and you deserve, you don't owe anyone an explanation for every moves you will do. You are what you are because you do what you do.

Trust yourself, be the person you want to be and move forward to the path of your own destiny.

No one knows what lays ahead, discover it and be the master of your own fate.

You will be history and your story will be remembered   

Saturdate

Friday night when Geejay sent an SMS to me, asking if I’m free on Saturday afternoon I‘ve checked my schedule right away and told him that i’ll be attending my training in the morning and will be free in the afternoon, definitely it’s a YES.

                

Saturday morning: He informed me that Julius will be with us and they will meet at Taft –MRT Station at 12:30pm. I’ve told him that I will be late because I’ve extended my 1 on 1 session.

                

1:00pm, Bench FIX Robinsons Galleria Julius I’ve arrived and been reunited with Geejay, Julius and Gladys. Julius is having his haircut, cool. While waiting we had a small talk about each other’s affair after that V-Mall and Promenade at Greenhills.

                

We helped Geejay to find “ah phone”, 3:00pm we’ve decided for a late lunch. Unanimous choice, Bon Chon. Yum yum! Let’s eat!

Reflection

I literally feel big whenever I look in the mirror that’s one good reason why I avoid grooming myself. Simply, I hate to see my reflection, even though people tells me that I’ve changed drastically in my physical appearance still I see the old me, the obese kid. Paranoid huh? Yes I am, just having hard time with my diet and 1 on 1 training. I need motivation.

Journal 101

I am Byron Cantonjos, almost four years ago I weigh 190lbs. I decided to loose weight because of my insecurities with other people who used to be “normal looking” compared to my “plus size appearance”. To be big and be called “pig” is just usual to me that's why never in my wildest dream to be physically fit and engaged myself in a healthy lifestyle because during those doomed days of mine I always thought how to pleasure myself in terms of eating. I've didn't notice that I'm getting “bigger and healthier”... and my story telling begins, being an overweight teenager.

Everything is NEW and BIG

I started my career in one of the largest, profitable and innovative company.

I am still wandering that before it is a fantasy, but now it is a reality

I have a new environment

I am still adjusting, observing and learning the culture inside the company
