ANOTHER perfect reason people get all suited up... CVG XMAS PARTEH 09'

Bora 09

Finally I got to see Boracay after 25 years of existence. I have dreamed of this day since my birthday last year wherein I was not able to join my barkada. I think the wait was all worth it because I had enough funds to really enjoy the perks bora could offer. Would I return to this fun filled paradise you may ask and the the answer would be a definite yes! Another plan is brewing up in the midst with my team to create another excuse to do a team building and commemorate it BORA style! :)

MOD TEAM BUILDING

A new set of crazy people headed by a crazy bloke (me) hehehe. This was taken at hidden paradise. A paradise where there was no snitch of Globe network signal. A memorable excursion that had its exciting progression to a climactic morning after! :)

Chat with a drunk friend

This should have been a tweet...

Early Saturday I received a "hahaha" and I knew that it was going to be an interesting conversation. I was not mistaken I was laughing my a** off every sec of it. It was so amusing an intoxicated persons spills out deep dark secrets. Kept me wondering if i do sound similar when I am drunk as well. hahaha

I cant post the conversation here though it was personal funny stuff and besides i did not dare save the conversation. My conscience is clear hah!

peace out.

Sessionistas live in Cebu



It was a planned concert gimik that almost turned out to be cancelled when tickets have started to get scarred. Luckily Insik got hold of em and finally I got see them live.

Verdict: It was nice... I think I expected more from them but nonetheless It was money well spent somehow.

Team JR2 farewell



It has been a whirlwind of fun and excitement being part of this crazy bunch. Its hard to part with these guys but i guess its the appropriate time for us to grow and work on separately.

crib update



happy and gets me back in perspective on why I am working my butt off everyday.

Nocturnality



Nocturnality is an animal behavior characterized by being active during the night and sleeping during the day.

Will be shifting to this state next week so I am preparing myself to early alcohol immersions just to force myself to sleep.

Friday Night...



3 glasses of vodka sprite on a depressing Friday night makes up for it somehow. Thank God for Formo's Happy Hour! PHP195

depressing rest days



This is the result. AMEN

Flash Backs




My current project as what I posted last week is ripping all of my cd's to my ipod. I found the process quite therapeutic. I was ravaging through my cluttered stuff in my room collecting all of the cd's i collected so far. It was surprising how wide range my collection is, I got rock, alternative to plain old pop. While browsing through them I got flash backs to the time i played these songs 24X7 to the then so popular sony discman. It was like I was time traveling back in time to my elementary, high school and college years where each song was a soundtrack of me growing up.

Well it was not all that perfect process because they were moments of "what the hell i was thinking" or "I wasted lunch money for this sh*t?". Again there were those surprises but there were also treasures that are lost. I could not find some cd's only cases which made me realize some things can never be relived, which leaves us to pick up whats left and move on. But all those bumps I think are necessary because without them I wouldn't be me right now.

After visiting memory and I'm currently halfway of ripping all of them, I feel secure now because all of the salvaged pieces will now be saved and stored away for easy access in a small black device.

whats up with me,,,(nothing much)

I weekly check my blog but for the past weeks I really didn't have anything to write about and honestly even this week as well. Nothing really happened that is note worthy except for meeting Lovely, rack and radley a few days back. Which was fun because I was able to discover Level 8 a hip new place to pass the night with great music and expensive boos.

Same old same old I am so preoccupied with loads of work and we just had an overhaul in management roster that i don't wanna talk about because for me its scary... hehehe

Recently I just got my very first Ipod classic and now I am working on filling it up to the brim with all the music I had lying around the house and new albums i keep on downloading every weekends.

I am clearly a bit bored with my usual routine so now every time I get a chance I check out the next best country to pay a visit. I am planning to get lost somewhere and just bumm around and window shop and try to communicate to people who doesn't understand a single English word. I think it would be fun or get to even soul search for a change... hehehe

If you got an idea or wanna go with me that's not a problem shoot away I'm open to any suggestions.

Used Gum


After I got home from my vacation a breaking news came out! I am to denounce my control over my team Mananap. The team I had celebrated our anniversary with just a couple of days ago. Its gonna be hard leaving my comfort zone and embarking on a team that is already labled, but at the end of the day a great challenge will really crank me up and keeps me interested/"unbored" (hahaha created my own word).

The next chapter poses a great puzzle. A question that now I can't answer at all which is: "How do I take in a gum that has been chewed twice?".

What new thing that can I offer or put into the plate to this bunch? Pressure is on again to help this old gum retain its taste and sweetness. Would I chew it from my front teeth or my molars? Is chewing clockwise or counter-clockwise make any difference?

I am open to all suggestions;

HK chronicles Part 2

Mickey we finally meet. After long years of watching you on TV and movies and admiring how exceptional you handle your craft. I can say we really did hit it off and had a blast for a few minutes. I just hope we get to catch up again soon and not wait another 25 years for it.

HK chronicles Part 1

After a painful 30 min delayed flight finally I got to eat! It was a momentous occasion. I got reacquainted with my long lost love: Ajisen Noodles. Its amazing how something you've been apart for 2 whole years have not changed a single bit. It defies the known fact that the only constant thing in the world is change.

How special it is, you may ask and let me leave you with a thought that it exudes the umami taste! hehehe

daily struggle

Looking at this space where I'm typing as of the moment all I can think or write about is work. I can complete a whole chapter just narrating what happens the whole day or even the week. Well everyone would just get bored reading it but what the hell I'm sharing it anyway.

Well a normal day starts off by running towards the elevator and then running across the production floor to clock in for work. I have promised myself that for this month i would change and have 0 lates' for the whole month and I am proud to say i did it!!!

Once I get my station freed by "intruders" (kidding i am not that selfish with my station anyone can use it!) I pull up a chat log for my agents so I can greet them good morning and check who is absent for the day. I then pull up our daily stats then scold those who gives me dissatisfied surveys from our customers. I would ramble for 5 minutes about that single survey and make sure they know I'm pissed off and they then find ways to cheer me up and divert my attention to other things. I calm down and start my ramble again with their time punches and phone punches as well. When I get bored of scolding them I shift my attention to bullying them by calling them names and exploiting their deepest darkest secrets in the chat room like crushes and etc.

My boss then adds me to her conference and calls me to do this and that. Update this and update that. When she is upset she calls for a meeting where I just sit around and laugh at my peers and bully them as well. When I get bored or the conversation gets heated and if it doesn't involve me I just do sketches. I draw my peer's face or anything I see inside the conference room. I only talk when I hear that more work is gonna be handed down to me. I confuse them all and change their minds to basically make that load lighter or possibly pass it to another person.

After that regular meeting I go down directly to eat and smoke. Usually after that break I will be called to another meeting and I will be doing the same thing all over. After that second one I de-stress and go down to smoke again, talk to people I know and some agents as well.

After the second stick I do go up then do my usual routine to listen to 10 calls and scrub punches. If I feel like it I coach some of them just to talk to them and catch up with their lives outside of work. When that is done and If I don't have extra responsibilities to finish I clock out on the dot.

Through the coarse of the day I make "chismis" with the people near me, eat food with them and finally some people gets irritated with me and then bullies me back but for people who actually knows me I never had an instance wherein i cannot fire back a sarcastic comment to them. Which made me known as a mean person and antipatiko in the office. For the record I really dont care! hahaha I know they will get bored If I am not like that. hehehehe


I hope everybody has somewhat rough view of my normal day at work.

google trip!

On a lazy Sunday I did the unthinkable. I googled myself. And much to my surprise I have results. Typing this blog I came to realize that what I did was such a "loser" thing to do. I guess this is just one of these days. Hehehehe

A public service

I would want to send this out just to remind the Friend hey we still care.

mini reunion

Its so nice to talk to old friends and play catch up...
last Saturday I had a chance to meet up with kim, bing and maia we had a blast just talking about the past, the now and the future.
At the end of the conversation and a dose of Piolo's Maxx fried chicken I just realized we are no longer the same people we were a few years back. We have certainly matured in our own little ways. It was I who really did not mature enough though.
Its sad that I missed Deanne and lovely because the gathering felt soooo half empty. We also had to take into consideration that kai is busy with her own life as well and I guess she is happy not to share it with us anymore. You go Kai!
I guess if I was that rich i would definitely invite the gang who is still here in cebu on a weekly dinner just to get that good old nonsense conversations and bonding.
I am not that good at writing but I would try my best to jot down all the tid bits of my life to create a mini time capsule that i can look back to when im on my death bed ( preferbably @ 40).
