week 21: etooo na!!!

Image
the last few weeks, i have made 4 life-altering decisions: quit my job consider a potential opportunity that would probably change me forever (i know this is vague but i can't talk about it just yet) decline a very enticing job offer accept a different job offer to say that my life would have taken another course if i hadn't chosen to do these would be an understatement.  whats even scarier is that i am beginning to doubt whether these decisions were made with my sanity intact. but its too late to change all that right now. i started with my new job this week.  it was very interesting.  everyone was really really nice, something i didnt expect.  i guess i am no longer used to that sort of environment.  but it was great.  everybody seems to get along well with everybody. i'm more quiet than usual.  mainly because i'm sleep deprived and it would take longer for me to wake up from my dream state.  i'm mostly sleepwalking these days.  one thing i will bi

week 20: super long weekend

my first task for my " fuckation ":  submit my stool sample.  hahahahahahaha! i did this monday morning. then malling lang ng kaunti. relax relax lang. the entire week i was basically preparing my pre-employment requirements. nagpunta ako ng munisipyo tska nagpa-renew ng nbi clearance. i was mildy amused by this sign inside a jeepney.  kakaloka. feelingera raw ang uupo sa side na ito kaya dito ako umupo!  haha! i also visited sss to check on my loan remittances. ang galing, di nagre-remit yung dati kong kompanya! so may penalty na ako. tangina nilang lahat. pero ang sabi saken nung HR, ang di raw nag-remit eh yung third party payroll provider so...tangina mo 3rd party provider! but anyway, yun lang naman ung nakakainis ata na nangyari. super relax mode talaga the entire week. weekend, kumain lang sa gumbo kasi gusto lang i-try haha. nalanding baby back ribs somehow, i dont really remember much about this week. basta alam ko lang na super relaxxxxx. 

yes, i know i am delayed...

you have no idea how much it pains me that i haven't been writing.  actually, i have a long blog post about this but can't publish just yet.  soon hopefully.  but for the time being, i would like to share this essay thing that i found in my inbox while i was searching for work-related files.  talk about serendipity.  anyway, it made me smile today. DATE A GIRL WHO READS - Rosemary Urquico. (via kblitz) Date a girl who reads. Date a girl who spends her money on books instead of clothes. She has problems with closet space because she has too many books. Date a girl who has a list of books she wants to read, who has had a library card since she was twelve. Find a girl who reads. You’ll know that she does because she will always have an unread book in her bag.She’s the one lovingly looking over the shelves in the bookstore, the one who quietly cries out when she finds the book she wants. You see the weird chick sniffing the pages of an old book in a second hand book shop? T

week 19: kiping it real

after 1 year and 1 month, i bid my company goodbye.  it was an interesting experience and honestly, i totally appreciated the opportunity they've given me.  there were some real good times.  i just felt so out of place in that environment and i wanted something less rigid and more open to change.  but i will truly  miss the friends i've made and the life we built in our own little world. my last day was actually on a tuesday.  my project manager (great boss, seriously.  although feeling ko he hates me now kasi marami akong naiwan na palpak na trabaho) treated us to a nice lunch at momo cafe. ayala triangle branch sir gali and my mentor, jasper rona, one of the team leads being knee-deep in credit card debt, hindi ko malibre mga friends ko ng goodbye merienda.  hahaha!  pobre!  but they surprised me actually and bought food and drinks that afternoon.  they are suuuuper nice!  they wished me luck on my future endeavors.  thanks guys, sobrang mami-miss ko kayo. i a
