Small World

How great it is to reunite with old friends? Old friends never fail to amaze me. I missed them so much that I hurrily logged out at the office. I then took the train and had a brawl with restless commuters. Well thank God all that paid off for when I arrived there were lots of food! Some photos taken and I was off feasting. I saw a high school classmate whom I have not seen since we graduated. And the fun part was she was from the same company I was working for. And the more fun part was she was just a street away from where I live in! Small world, eh?

Five of us. Three of us work in the same company. Two of us live in the same house. Three of us work in the same city. All interconnected. Really a small world we live in. I then remember that Six Degrees of Separation Theory. That theory is now starting to convince me. In my own circle, I can interconnect us all in one way or another. Geez.

The Language of Women

From an old text message.

The Language of Women

"Fine."
To end an argument when they're right and you need to shut up.

"Nothing."
Means 'something' and you should be on your toes.

"Go ahead."
This is a dare. Don't do it!

Loud Sigh
A nonverbal act often misunderstood by men. This means she thinks you're an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time and arguing with you over 'nothing'.

"Whatever."
Fuck you!

For men to be warned about future arguments.
For women to have a good laugh.

I ALWAYS KEEP IT IN MIND.

I'm Back!

I'm back, finally, after a month-long hiatus. Been very busy within that time that's why I chose to do away from my blog. So many things have happened in one month. Remember the training I told last month? I happened to get an extra slot from the roster of trainees because one of the supposed to be trainees (who happened to be one of my former classmates) backed out days before the start of the training. She had to take a refresher course for the October 2009 Electronics Engineering Licensure Examination, and fortunately she passed! Congratulations, Dianne! As part of the celebration, she took us out on a fancy local resto, and as it ended we were full, especially I was heaping, haha! The Mechatronics Servicing NC II class started 12 Oct and ended 07 Nov. Then we took the final assessment 11 Nov, and not so lucky me I failed one of the practical exams, but it's just fine. I guess I just have to review for the retake. Plus I finally had my job at a semiconductor company Monday. So now I'll be updating this blog again starting now. Happy blogging to me! :)

My Mom Got Robbed!

News has come to me that earlier this morning my mother got robbed while she was at the Tanauan Public Market canvassing fruits to sell at Los Baños. All that she has at that time was taken away from her, including her bag, phone, basket and money. My mother has so much to bear right now. She owes microfinance projects, middlemen and the Bumbays money, and if her debts would be compared to flood, it would be an Ondoy flood. And then it happened to my mother. I feel for her, and right now I need to do something. I need to find a job, and this time I won't be choosy. Yung bwisit na holdaper kasi na yun, hindi pa nilanggam nung bata pa. (Sorry.)
