Best Pix Part 1: Medtecs Count '05

Hi there y'all.. I've been compiling all my digital pictures and I came across some set of pictures that made me smile realizing that it's one of the best experiences I had when I was still in SGV. It made me reminisce a bit about the life @ bataan and knowing that you're with c00L people adds a sparkle of spice!

My Last Day @ SGV

I felt very happy when I received a cake from Zha, a bread from Jamie, and some heart-felt letters from Marose, Glaiza, JM, Jinky, Mina, Jen, Lennie... I felt I somehow touched their lives while I was still in SGV. I am not really expecting anything from anyone. I just wanna finish my work and end my effecivity day that I had written on my resignation letter. Anyway, I wanna thank you guys for the effort and I want you to know that I really appreciate them. I just hope that when I get kinda lonely, you're all there to cheer me up in a certain way that I cheered you every morning with all smiles ~my killer smile!! haha
Thanks a million.


Ma' Fire Box Strikes Again!!

Yesterday, I went to office again to get my things! It's really emotional to put most of your stuff in the fire box especially the part when I already removed my name on the push board... Yet I can feel excitement rushes to me the day of my flight is nearing. But mostly I feel very very nervous that I really don't know if this is the decision I really want. Come to think of it, I have decided that I'm finally moving to Oz for the nth time. I still can't imagine myself doing all the hard work (not the office work but the house work)...
Hey hey, I think I'm talking about my fire box here. At last, the second and final installment of my fire box is ready for pickup last Sat. I finally finished packing! and on the afternoon of Sat, I went for a brief listening on the PDMP that EY has to offer. I can't really focus on that since I got so many things to do (especially sorting out my LN's). So what I did is to go down and leave the boring discussion and finish what I gotta do. My final wish before fin'lly leaving the SGV portal is to eat Bugong (ala~Kenny Rogers) with Abby, Jing and Jamie.
On Sunday, I finally went for my last visit @ the office to get my things!! The legendary Fire Box is so cool!! I have the feeling that I'm carrying my most-priced possession in my hands. D'you wanna see what's inside my Fire Box...

The Fire Box


The usual Sunday was spent going to Glorietta with my parents... Celebrating mass... Eating lunch in a Resto... Shopping... But this Sunday is quite different! I went to National Bookstore and bought a box that is commonly seen in movies when an employee was kicked-out from his office. That's why I called it 'the Fire Box'. These Fire boxes are quite different since you are the one who's gonna assemble it. I'm quite an idiot that it took me more than five minutes to assemble the damn thing! But to the help of Jing (my officemate), I was able to pack my things away. It really saddens me to know that tomorrow will be the last Monday at work and my last week at office. I really spent quite sometime in the office. I was able to mature in a certain way and I was able to build a different rapport with my officemates.

I was so tired when I got home that I slept the whole afternoon. When I was about to clean my things. I noticed all the things I'd accomplish at office and all those things that have sentiments to me. I can't help but really feel emotional. But of course, I should move on. A greater challenge lies ahead.
Here's the last glimpe of my work area @ SGV~

Belated HB 4 Me!!

I am awefully busy this past few weeks that I failed to greet myself a happy 24th birthday. This will be my last birthday in the Philippines after my two-year contract at Oz... Anyway, I celebrated it earlier so that I could treat my parents + brother's family @ Italiannis in Glorietta. Had so much fun not only it helped my fixed reimbursements (accumulating that is...) but also having my cute nephew (Francis) and niece (Angelique) around to early-celebrate my birthday.

9 days to go...

A really long time since I last blogged. The real reason was due to pressure in completing all the archiving of my 2005 engagement. Its a tough job but still I set a deadline that I will finish them all this week. Such tasks keep me stay busy, which helps a lot with the current emotions I am feeling regarding my decision to work in Sydney. I feel emotionally down at this moment, not only because I will surely miss my family and friends but also the current situation I am feeling. I just feel that this past few days, I've been spending my time with my friends and going home early with my family. I just can help but feel flustered because someone can't understand my situation. I really fed-up with such circumstance.. And I don't wanna discuss further how pissed I am..

Anyway, few more days and the effectivity of my resignation will take effect. I will miss the SGVian lifestyle. I plan to jot a list of things I will miss... A lot I can think of is closely-related with my lifestyle here at SGV. I think there will be a lot of comparison and adjustments I will make at EY and surely I wish that I could really adopt to their working environment. The fear of not being accepted within the group is predominant but I can't find any reason why such thing will happen. I just wish that there is equality and an open chance to excel. My thoughts are really vague. I 'll post a lenghty one when I'm throught with SGV. hahaha ;)

Btw, its 9 days to go before I'll be SGV alumnus. LOL!!
