On your 18th Birthday Therese

Every year we come up with ways to make each other feel special on our respective birthdays. We put so much effort in letting each other know that the friendship that we have can stand even though we don't see each other that often. We have this thing could mutual admiration society. We are each other's fans. Hehehe!

Yesterday was your 18th birthday. Happy Birthday! I did not forget your birthday. How could I do that?! I've been greeting you every Christmas for your birthday in 4 straight years. Aside from that I've been thinking of what to waer for your party. This morning I woke up with a text message from you. It says "TSK". Hahaha! You were totally expecting a greeting from me. Boohoo!

The Last 90 Days

I just got regularized!

I survived 90 days of probationary status at my new work. I can't believe it went by that fast. As mentioned in my previous entry, the new job was something that took my attention from what was bothering me for a number of weeks. It was a time of learning, discovery and building relationships.

It was truly a memorable three months: getting lost in finding the induction room, finding the person in-charge of induction cute, almost being late on second day of induction due to traffic, keeping myself awake by thinking that each person that came into the room represented a character and eventually mimicking them by the end of the day, shocked reaction upon knowing that the schedule is shifting and I could be working on a Saturday, paying 300 pesos worth of parking in Makati, getting acquainted with my batchmates and starting to build friendships, opening up to new friends, having a lot of fun during V&A with trainer Norris, getting tongue-tied with Honorio's tongue-twister activities, being baptized Maria Racquel, getting drunk at 9 in the morning, getting scared of trainer Abi, finding out that Abi was a schoolmate back in college, trying to enjoy transition training, sleeping at Philam, making fun of LIPS, swapping of dvds and magazines, singing videoke at Louise's place, being late for 17 minutes considering I was just at that sleeping room, finishing transition training, getting distributed to our respective teams, adjusting to the snore fest at the sleeping room and lots and lots and lots of love and support from my batchmates.

I'm sure there'll be more memories.... In the mean time, evidences of the past 90 days...
