Farewell To You My Friend

My friend Gherj already gave her resignation letter and our operations manager already approved it. This is indeed a decision she made because she wants to fulfill her dream to become a computer programmer and since our job mainly focuses on tech support - she feels she would not really improve her programming skills if she would This is really it, this is indeed a reality.... I will again lose not just an officemate but a dear friend. Yeah, we do have a lot of disagreements due to her "sensitivity" issues but we always make sure every misunderstanding is properly addressed. I will definitely miss her. I would miss our conversation about our plans of making ourselves more attractive by undergoing some medical procedures - her undergoing breast enlargement procedure and me going through plastic surgery from one of the best New York cosmetic surgeon. I would miss seeing her laughing even on the corniest jokes I crack. Things would not be the same indeed once she's gone.

But I know that life should go on. I applied for the job all by myself and I should be prepared to accept any changes that would occur. I know I need to work on building other friendships within the company and I'm slowly getting there. I need to be tough since I know I won't be resigning for the next 3 years as I aim to stay with my current company for the minimum of 5 years so I could get my pension. I know it would be tough without friends around but I know I can get used to it. Anyway, its easy for me to befriend someone. I just hope that Gherj's decision would be the best for her and I believe our friendship does'nt end here. We would definitely still keep in touch.

Bitterness

I don’t know what to feel anymore… I feel so low today. I saw a message on my facebook page about this guy I’ve been dating before. Well I can’t really say it’s a romantic date, all I know is that we are always together at a certain period… Watching movies together, going to church together, doing almost everything together…it’s just that we never said the words I love you during those times…I admit, there is a certain feelings that grew deep inside me that I ignored for the longest time. I’ve only realized how much I wanted to be with him when I already resigned from the company where we both work. Just earlier today, our common friend and former officemate posted something on my wall asking me, him and another friend to have a get together…I would really love to see them again. After all, we used to be friends. Then another friend made a comment on my wall saying I look like his girlfriend now. At first, I was shocked. I didn’t know that he is into a serious relationship right now…...

Icey and Melai's Birthday Celebs at the Agogo

Image
Just two weeks ago, we celebrated two birthdays. Once is Icey's 22nd and the next is Melai's 26th. Both parties are held at Cafe Agogo along Julia Vargas Ortigas Pasig. Besides the fact that Cafe Agogo is just a few blocks away from our office - I think one thing that drives us back to that place is it's cozy ambiance. I mentioned on my previous posts that it is the best place to unwind and have a good laugh with your friends with their low lighted effect and their comfy chairs. The bar is not that crowded and the menu is also affordable. They have what they call "Happy Hour Promo" in which you could get 3 bottles of iced cold San Mig Light or two servings of Cosmopolitan for only a hundred bucks. My favorite breakfast treat Spanish Omelet costs me only P69 with free Iced Tea! Other dishes are also reasonably priced and tastes good as well. I once tried their Rosemary Chicken with Iced Tea for P169 and although it's not the best roasted chicken I've ever t...

No To Injustices

I hate those people who doesn't respect a person's right. Most likely it's because somehow I've been a victim of such. Three years ago, I used to work in a website company where my direct superior was my former colleague. To be honest with you, I accepted the job having faith that our professional relationship would not be affected by our personal relationship. Unfortunately that's not what happened. Things went from bad to worse that it came to a point where I just told her that I can't take it anymore and that I am resigning. She didn't take my resignation because of anger and instead called me up on the phone saying I was fired. What an injustice! I was very young then, I didn't know anything about the law and I didn't know any legal action I could make against the company regarding what happened. Good thing, there is such an organization called Protection juridique who provides legal assistance and information through phone. It is now easier for...
