It had to end this way

I still find it hard to believe that in one and half weeks, I won't be stepping foot in my office at Basement 2. It has been a year here in this hole, but 2 and a half as a whole with the company.

Yes. I am moving on.

Eversince February, I had a series of downers at work. A lot of sleepless nights mulling over what happened to the network and the server. And, whole day at work where I try to dodge my boss so that there won't be a karaoke session (as my dear lola likes to put it).

It's all gonna end soon.

I am thinking positive about everything. My load as of the moment is so light that I have to put toothpick in my eyes to stay awake. I am trying to mend broken bridges and would like to leave with no hard feelings whatsoever to those people who have hurt me so much, may it be intentionally or not.

I am praying for more success to the company who has given me a lot of opportunities. Memories with people I've dealt with. And, friends whom I hope to keep forever. It's so heartwarming that there are people who valued my contribution. One specific lady whom I like so much gave me a farewell lunch last Monday. She's currently stationed in Beijing and was leaving last Tuesday thus the early treat.

One at a time.

With a little hop on my walk these days (especially if there's a new episode of GA), I am praying that the company I am about to join will be as welcoming as the one I am leaving. I fervently hope that I'll get along with my new boss and that I could get to make new friends.

I also hope that things won't be very tough that I have to sacrifice my time with my kids.

I am excited and scared as well. But, I just need to have faith.

Nyamy Nyamy

Our Bebe A is at the stage of being cheeky and endearing.  She can speak so many words now, some clear, some not.  Hehehe.  She likes to sing as well.  She actually has a good tone.  One of the songs that she likes is the one from Wiggles --- Fruit Salad.  Her version though is : Mom : Fruit Salad Bebe A :  Nyamy Nyamy (Yummy Yummy)

Busy

Bebi A : Daddy, can you make me an airplane? Daddy : Later Ava, I am busy Bebi A : You always say you're busy, you're hurting my feelings... She then put her face down on the sofa. Drama queen!

Dress Code

If wearing jeans every day of the week is the gauge for a great workplace, my new job would have a tie with my last workplace in the Philippines. Yes, we can dress down the whole week. I am so thrilled with this prospect. First day was ok. My boss took a picture of me from camera phone and sent this picture in an email to the global team. Oh man! Workwise, I find the team to be so organized and that scares me. After being lawless for a year, it's a big turnaround. When I opened my email this morning, I got almost 70+ mails, and my training plan already laid out. They also gave me a web camera and headset for team web conferencing. (I really need to lose weight now, the camera will add a few more pounds hahaha) Then, I found out that they don't come to work on time and we can leave at exactly 545pm. Woohoo! That's one of the things that were nagging me but I was so pleased to learn that. We even had a 1 and a half hour of lunch time. Hmmm... This could be very...
