Hop, Hop and Away

Yesterday was our surprise potluck despedida for our friend, b1. He's migrating to melbourne, australia this coming saturday. His family will be left behind for almost 4 months. He needs to find a job first and settle down.

After all the fun we had last night, I suddenly felt sad. I hate changes, I hate goodbyes. Though we'll probably see each other again once or more in our lifetime. I really felt it won't be the same as living in the same country.

We had our moments. Aso't pusa kasi kami. But sometimes, we get to be on the same side. We like the same US shows. We both like to eat a lot. We like to argue and prove we're right hahaha

Then, when his family moves, I'll miss his very charming wife J, my smart inaanak, D and his kid brother R.

Ganun talaga buhay. Sometimes you want to have consistency, but then, we have to move on to plant our roots and grow.

So long, my friend.

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...

Confession

Being a Mom.  Sometimes I feel as I am not cut out for it. Too much work.  Too much responsibility.  Too much worry. Worry that Ate T is taking the bus today.  Ate A's tooth is still in there and the new one has already come out.  Baby A has colds and is screaming and wants to cuddle. Sometimes it leaves me breathless. But When I pick up Ate T from our meeting place, I feel so proud of her because she has become independent and can commute.  Ate A's tenacity in wiggling her tooth and she's now toothless, doesn't need to go to the dentist to have it removed.  And, Baby A despite her colds still has appetite and it just feels good to hug her. God has showered me with so much love for giving me 3 wonderful girls.  It feels good being a mommy. Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderful Mommies!

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!
