Out With Etelecare Buddies

Giligan's Island. All 5 of Us.

We were all supposed to meet at 3pm at the parking lot of eTelecare in Makati, but I opted to go directly to Glorietta because the venue for our gimmick is at Giligan’s Island. I never knew that Ian will be leaving for Cebu on Saturday. He is being transfered there because he is promoted to become a team leader. Wow. Ian was one of my Tier 2 leaders when I was working as a Dell technician. He is really very industrious and knowledgeable about computers. Anyway, he arrived with Mico at 4pm. We met infront of the Nautica boutique near the activity area of Glorietta.

Giligan's Island. All 5 of Us.

Ian, Mico and I decided to go directly to Giligan’s Island and reserve a place. When we got there, we settled for a seat next to the big window. Ian was the one to order. He paid for everything and he doesn’t want to disclose how much he spent. Hahaha! I bet it was about Php2000. We all had a bottle of San Mig Light. Ian had to go home to Batangas, where he really lives, tonight, so we only had one.

I don’t know when we will meet like this again. I mean, Kat is the only one left at eTelecare because most of us left already. I mean, this month, Juwan and JeAr resigned, and then Ian is leaving for Cebu. My mom used to say that I can never really find good friends at work, but I proved her wrong. I found friends in them. Even if I’ve left, we still communicate and get together. Nothing changes, except we have more stories to exchange. We mature. We grow.

I Had A Bad Day

Last night, I was struggling. I didn’t feel so well; my head was so heavy and my throat felt dry plus it hurts whenever I try to swallow my saliva. (Eww…) I was able to sleep for an hour, I was waiting for Veronica Mars to start, but I fell asleep. Pff. I woke up 5 minutes after it was over. Grr. By 10pm, I started to study for my prelims exam. I studied for 2 subjects, Basic Computer Concepts (BASICON) and NSTP.

I still feel the dryness in my throat. My head still hurt… :yawn:

I had to read an entire topic over and over for BASICON because my professor mentioned to have included a “fill-in-the-blank” instruction for that particular topic. Well, I guess it paid that I did read my book. But we cannot commit any erasures because we will lose a point, so I interchanged two answers. Err… Well, I just hope I did perfect the computation part of the exam.

For NSTP, we had to memorize the school’s Vision-Mission. I did memorize them both, but I was having trouble memorizing the Mission. In our exam, I forgot the first 4 words of the Vision, but completed the Mission. Pff. I believe I did well in both exams, and I’d probably get a good grade, if not better.

If today couldn’t get any better, I forgot my exam permit at home and I only had 15 minutes more to kill before it was time for me to get to school. I text messaged my dad and had him bring it to me. I got to school at 1:05pm. It’s a good thing that I wasn’t late.

Tomorrow, we will have another exam for Color Theory. Our lecture is a bit short, but I want to make sure I remember everything. I am pretty conscious with my grades right now, because after this course, I am going out in the real world to actually work. Well, it will be half-working and half-enjoying. I love this course!

I was able to get a “GoodLuck” from Marky. Hahaha!

On Saturday, my friends from my old job and I will be having a little get together. I don’t know where yet, but Kat mentioned Watering Hole and Gilligan’s. I will be bringing my camera, so I can share them with you. It will be fun because it has been a pretty long time since I last saw all of them, especially JeAr, who I haven’t seen for months!

On Sunday, will be a meeting with my partners in crime, Ringo and Kix. We don’t have a venue yet, but it should be between 11am to 2pm. Kix has something important to do on Sunday after 2pm. Oh and Ringo’s band was accepted to compete at Muziklaban. Wow! I hope they win. He’s a good bassist.

My sister’s boyfriend, Tan, downloaded a LOT of mp3s for me. The CD includes RedHotChilliPeppers Stadium Arcadium album, Pink’s I’m Not Dead album, The Cranberries, Evanescence, Sandi Thom’s I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker, Ray Lamontagne’s Trouble. You guys should download I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker and Trouble. Both songs are from the UK and they are so good.

If life couldn’t be any worse?!

Someone changed my yahoo ID password. Grr! :outrage:

I am SUPER PISSED OFF! If I find out who this person is, I would totally do something really nasty. I know it might seem like it’s a small thing, but my whole life is there! All my important contacts are there, and that person might do something bad to them if he/she logs on using my ID.

So guys, beware, if anyone messages you using “onewickedsoul” please keep in mind, IT’S NOT ME!

Check out cheap hotels.

Goodbye…

My cousin’s family is gone! Huhuhu… Oh well, they said they’d be back on February, but Ann and Paula are not sure to come with. So last night, we all went to Greenbelt, Makati to have dinner with them. We were about 20 in one long table at BigBuddha. My Aunt Susan ordered and paid for everything. We had crispy noodles, kimchi with mushroom, veggies, fried chicken, and I love the rice! I forgot what it is called exactly, but is like java rice with shrimp and vegetables. For dessert, we had banana split.

BigBuddha: CHEERS!

After dinner, we headed to my aunt’s condo unit and we watched some DVDs. We had fun swapping stories about how we were, our childhood experiences, those funny and embarrassing moments… Sigh… Ann wishes for me to go live in the US. I said I would love to if I can, and have the means. Oh well…

BigBuddha!
Ann and I
