I am greater than.

Yey. This is my 4th year on my current company. This is also my first job after college. I tried few times in the past to leave and find a greener pasture. But I realize, it's not always about the money. :) In four years, I got promoted twice, and certified twice. I'm hoping to get a promotion next year. :D *goal setting*

Yesterday, I had dinner with my start group in Superbowl of China. The attendance was a big improvement from last year. :P We talked about a lot of things, mostly work stuff. :P
batch dinner :D
So there, I am still counting. :P

Week 29

Last Saturday, I watched the David Cook concert with Jayce, Prince, Bev and Erlie. It was the first time that I paid for a concert in Araneta. :P Prince is the uber fan. 
and the band!
We had dinner at Bellini's in Cubao Expo after the concert. I've been wanting to eat here, really. I was glad that we were able to try that night. This was the same restaurant in the movie One More Chance of my loves, JL. We had two shots each of their sweet wine. We loved it! :P
Popoy and Basha! :P
I had a dinner with my super friends last July 18 at Blufish in Eastwood. It was quite expensive, but the crabs were great! :P It was a rant day! Hahaha! I love them. :)
With Dwin and Apol

I had another dinner last Friday. But this time, I was with the team. :) It was my second time in Just Thai. I love Thai food. Pad thai for the win! :P
team dinner

It was an awesome week with my friends. :) For this coming week, I'd be having dinner with my batchmates. It would be for our 4th year anniversary at work! Yebah, my love-hate relationship with my company is the longest I have. :P Mas matagal pa sa mga relasyon ko. :D


By the way, we're planning to go to Calaguas this August. Probably during the long weekend, finally! I'm so excited! :D I can imagine the white sand already. :)


*Thanks Prince for the Cook's picture.

I'm Sick

... and I'm blogging. :P

Been feeling awful since Thursday night, but today I'm coughing and sneezing like crazy. I'm already on my second roll of tissue, I bought three. :P I hate being sick. :(

I should be doing my concept paper for my research project now. I'm on my last year of my masters. Hopefully, I'd be able to finish all my requirements this year. The thing is, I have a comprehensive examination coming this August, and I haven't started the review yet. My manager also told us that we could not take a leave this August. I'm screwed, right? :|

Share : Date a Girl who Writes

Found this on my Facebook news feed. I really like it, so I thought of sharing this to you, guys! 

"She’s the girl who would absent-mindedly stare outside the window for most of the time while you’re relating to her what you feel is one turning point in your life and when she does this, you would sometimes get a strong desire to pound on her and tell her to pay attention. Don’t be hurt by her seemingly lack of attention or interest. Don’t worry. She’s one master of multi-tasking. I tell you, you would be surprised when all of a sudden, she would turn to you, remark on what you’ve said with words that hold the deepest sense of meaning and you would further be amazed at how she would matter-of-factly tell you how your smile became somewhat crooked at one point of your story or how a single crease of line crossed your forehead at another point. Now, who’s not paying attention, huh? Do not ever, not even for a second be deceived that she’s not paying attention when she appears like her mind is elsewhere but with you. During those times, her mind is actually in full gear and she would surprise you that she can take account of your story in toto with the right details, including the life dilemma of the old man on the other table across yours which she just heard in passing while listening to yours."
