Just another email...

just another email I received today

Yeahhhh! Fruits of labor. This is so sweet. Hihihi.

So I must admit that once in my life, I've been one of those anonymous tumblr users venting and getting pleasure anonymously. And yes, today, I must say goodbye to a part of me I don't know if I'll meet again.

Quickie

Almost two weeks of not updating = extreme ups and downs.

So last holy week, like what we do every year, Noli and I and our group of friends did the Visita Iglesia. And unlike the past years, we didn't take any photo of ourselves or the churches we went to. Apparently, we were busy bashing people we walk with, or people we just wanted to bash--so appropriate for the season. I missed the bunch, consists mostly of my favorite people in Kampi: Lejoy, Jobelle, Kam, Job, of course, Noli and another person from Kampi, RJ. As I mentioned no pictures that night.

The walk was quite fast, we finished 14 churches in 2 hours. I know, amazing. We ate afterwards, where I knew everybody prayed for my lovelife to finally exists. Haha. Good friends.

----------------------------------------------------------

Spent the Black Saturday with Brevs and Aeron in Villa Escudero. It was quite an unexpected trip since we're too bored to just stay at home. Funny things happened like, the agreement is to meet at 7 at the bus station. But since we're all excited of the trip (since none of us has visited the place already) we're still awake by 3am and decided to meet at that moment instead.

We arrived there at around 8am and enjoyed what we saw. It really is a place for nature-lovers and families. Very serene and very nice.

Just because this is picturesque. Naks

Always the best part

Bunch of selfies in the place

We even availed of the pictures taken by the
photographers in the place

We (they) did some rafting, swimming and of course, eating. We decided to leave at around 6pm. Hih.

------------------------------------------------------------

April 22 is mom's birthday. Since all of the sibs (except a sister and I) went to Cavite for vacation, I just had a wonderful date with mama. We watched Da Possessed (she likes Vhong! no choice!) and ate after. I went to the office after the date while mama went to kuya's house since kuya gave her a small celebration.

Le birthday girl (kuya's house)

They're partying while I'm working. What is unfair

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Went to Cavite last weekend for the clan's thanksgiving party. Three of my cousins graduated from college and my youngest sister graduated from High School. Of course, my friendly ex is there, together with the whole family. The event consists of eating and eating and eating. Surprisingly, there's very few amount of alcohol so we were not really intoxicated the whole time.

I went home Monday morning but got to talk to Louie the night before. Well, that should be on another post.

(Okay, too many updates. last one.)

So it's the monthly townhall yesterday and guess what, my team just won the dress your manager contest and we won GCs! Whoooo! Also, I am recognized by my manager as a, you know, performer. HAHA. But yeah, got GCs for that too! :))

So, yeah. that's how my two weeks went. And apparently, this is not a quickie.

1st year of working today! Whooo!!!

I can't believe I've been sitting here in my workstation for a year now. I can't believe that exactly a year ago, I was fetch in the 21st floor of Solaris Building, all ideal and hopeful. And I can't believe I'm still here. Ha. Kidding. Happy to realize where ever I am now and whatever I got after my first year. Whoo, hooray to the next years!

What if you're friends with someone you really like. A true relationship where you're happy when he's happy and you're sad when he's sad. The kind that does not envy others because you know who makes him happy. The kind that is free from lies and pains. The kind that worries, cares and protects.

What would you do? What would you do if he's going through something and you can't do anything about it? What if you've been itching to make him feel alright but you know it won't do much?

I just need to know you're okay. And I just need you to realize I'm here.

#bettertogether

Photo obviously grabbed from someone's (aka Brevs) instagram.

Because no matter how much time I spend in the office, working, they keep me sane (and insane, sometimes). Since I do not express myself most of the time and I know you guys googled this blog, let me just say that I love you both. :)

Time of the month

Maybe it's just because it's the time of the month. But, I am not in the mood to work. I am not in the mood to socialize with people and I am not in the mood to eat. I just want to stay at home, read my book, eat with my family then sleep. This is one of those times when I wonder why my life is so uneventful, even though I've been to a lot of places the past few days.

Speaking of, I took a leave (again) yesterday. We follow the US holiday so yesterday is normally a working day. Papa's death anniversary is on the 12th but since people were available yesterday, I had to adjust. We just cleaned his place since he's in a public cemetery in a far place in Batangas. We spent almost the whole day there before we went to my relatives' place.

Anyway, I had the chance to take a picture of my hair and as promised here it is:

It looked like violet and orange under
the sun. :|

hashtag nofilter and look how weird it is

I feel so not myself today. Since I got to take my leaves, I became less energetic about work. I always look forward to vacations like this, getting away with everything. Well, I just really want to get away.

Ending this post with this picture
because I don't know why mama's always
awkward in our pictures together.

Photodump: Weekend

So since I had a fantastic weekend, I felt the need to update this blog.

For the first time after all the OTs this 2014, I took a vacation leave last Friday. We first went to Quiapo to have my glasses fixed. I was also thinking of changing my frames, but since I just got my frame last February, changing of frames was postponed. Heh.

Summer, yo.

We went to Dasmariñas and I don't want to travel at that time of the day again. I'm guessing the car's air-conditioning unit is working double time because of the heat outside.

I know this is creepy, but I love the sunset in Manila Memorial Park.

"You know--one loves the sunset, when one is so sad . . ."  

Well, I love sunsets in general, more than the sunrise. And yes, currently I am so sad (though I still love it even if I'm not). We went to our house in GMA after the visit and the highlight of the day is that I got a very nice massage. Hihihi.

Lahh

The next day is my oldest tito's birthday. Kind of a surprised party so we celebrated it in their store.

Because this one's mandatory.

Because we're not kids anymore.

Because I just woke up. Don't mind the sunnies, was playing with the kids before this photo. Heh

My cousin and I watched Captain America after and I don't think taking a picture of the movie ticket is necessary. We weren't able to do selfies with the 3D goggles though.

Later that day my cousins decided to have an unexpected midnight swimming that night. And yes, despite the very cold weather in Cavite at night, we went swimming. Whoo!

We arrived at around 12mn and went home at 5am.  Sayang, drinking wasn't allowed at the resort so, yeah. We spent the night swimming and singing and eating. Of course, the rest is the story of how tired we are.

Sunday morning (afternoon really but we just woke up so it's still morning), I had my hair colored. The goal is to have the upper half of my hair colored reddish brown and the lower half sunset red (that's orange-ish-red) But since my hair is so stubborn, the upper part looked like super dark red-violet and the lower half, dark orange-ish-red. I haven't had my hair selfie yet so I'll put up another post for that (yes, because it's necessary) I'd have my hair colored again if it does not improve within the week.

I went back to Manila after but I went directly to work I was just afraid of long-weekend-Monday Monday and checked my email. Surprisingly, I am happy I made this decision. There was a looooot of emails. Ugh.

Visited this handsome boy after work.

Went home after my visit and rested, it was a wonderful and tiring weekend.
