missing Legazpi...

Well, I love the place where I am at present because I am with my siblings…we live under the same roof and obviously, we see each other every day…but I just can’t forget my days in Legazpi…

Legazpi has been my haven for eight years so it’s not that fast and easy to forget Legazpi especially if I’m at the office (Manila)…God! I miss the MBS Tek Legazpi Office where I can comfortably wear bermuda shorts matched with a baby tee and my havaianas as my footwear at any day I want to wear a comfortable outfit…unlike here in MBS Tek Manila Office that you have to be always in proper or prescribed attire I should say because people here are very particular with the dress code and we (Legazpi people) do not have a choice but to follow the rules…

BUT hmmm…I saw this girl from Marketing Manila wearing havaianas at the office...hmmm…aren’t you aware that wearing flip flops is not allowed? Yes, even if it’s branded dear, it’s not allowed…and common sense…wearing sleeveless blouses and slippers is kinda off seeing that your superiors are always at their proper office attire… and that is actually the reason why I bought a new set of clothes, jackets especially because it’s cold in the office…I also bought a new pair of shoes (planning to buy another one on the 30th) and additional two bags to match my every day outfit…take a look at the pictures below…those are from ukay-ukay…haha! got four jackets and three blouses for 2000php…not bad, right?

Back to the topic…I miss the MBS Tek Legazpi pantry where my colleagues and I shared breakfast, lunch, and afternoon merienda…I miss the jokes of bhem, dex, lyn, and olops while at the pantry…I miss my seatmates ate cla and jirl…I miss my roommate mina even if she’s not always around…I miss the massage of mech…I miss yona and francis’ contagious laughter…I miss eating shawarma with sally…I miss jam and kr calling me “ate mydz”…I even miss tin and rhyz’ defeaning silence…And of course, I miss giving keywords to my team members – ryan, mayan, lala, and charm…haha! what I don’t miss is proofreading and editing articles…waahhh!

friends forever...

This is supposed to be a rest day since it's a Sunday...I should stay at home and sleep all day because I wake up at 5AM from Tuesday-Saturday so I won’t be late for work…by the way, my working schedule is 7AM to 4PM…and actually, travel time (from home to the office) is only 30mins…the first 45mins (5:00-5:45) is for me to have breakfast, take a bath, and get dressed…30mins travel time which only means that I arrived at the office 45mins before 7AM…whew! So this should really be a rest day, isn’t it?

But because I haven’t seen Cecille - my friend ever since elementary, for a long time, I’ve decided to meet her at Trinoma…we talk through yahoo. messenger from time to time even if we don’t see each other everyday…I miss being with her…I miss the other members of our group (Katherine – my best friend , Mary Joy – Cecille’s best friend, Laila – Andrea’s best friend, and Claire – Lovelle’s best friend)…I hope that one of these days guys, we can be together…

____________we're still very good friends after 20years___________

335php just for a tumbler?

Had a very tiring day but no one can stop us (me, nikki, and franz) to go window shopping…actually, me and nikki really wanted to feed ourselves a bottle of vodka cruiser or two…so we went to Glorietta...munched dinner at Kenny Rogers Roasters and started to walk around after…

now, guess what I’ve got after 30mins of walking around…a 335php tumbler from Starbucks Coffee! I don't really have plans of spending and wasting money for things that are not that important...it's just that I can't control my impulsivess...HELP!!! send me to a rehab...


and how about the original plan which is to have a bottle or two of vodka cruiser? oh well, we have all the time to do that nikz, right?

ciao!

Happy New Year!

I thought I would be welcoming 2008 together with my family…you see, we’re all together during Christmas…but busy as my parents are, they have to be back in Masbate a day after Christmas to attend to some important matters…good thing that my cousin from Austria, Irene with her hubby (Laurence) and her daughter (Ashley Laurene) are here in Manila so I went to Paco to be with them to welcome 2008... it’s been four years since the last time I saw my cousin and so it was also some kind of a reunion…

Here are some pix taken before the year ends…

new job, new house, new environment, new lifestyle for 2008...

I still can't believe that I'm already here and I'm back "for good" in Manila...in my childhood days, we usually spend summer vacations here in Manila with my relatives...we have a house in Paco, Manila…My mother is from Masbate but she and her siblings grew up in Manila and the house in Paco served as their haven together with my grandparents of course…Now, I am here in Manila not just to go on a vacation but to work and stay in this place for good…Goodluck to me…haha…I know that getting used to this kind of environment will be kinda hard but I don’t a have choice…

Here’s my first picture in my new sanctuary…still working on my backlogs…haha
