welcome 2009! welcome back to me!

wow, this is not good. i'm breaking my own record. *lol*

i've gone to pinas and now am back. the past 2 months flew by. i got so busy that i need a new word for "busy busy". mostly with work, with responsibilities sa EB party ng website ni sarah, with preps for the 2 weeks vacation in pinas. dumating din si eibron dito sa FL to spend 10 days with us. 10 nga ba? jusme, ulyanin na agad ako! all i can say is, the 2 weeks PI vacation is short, but it was well worth it! =)

sa ngayon pa lang, nagpapaumanhin na ko sa mga kaibigan kong di ko man lang nameet sa pinas. vero, mare... di ko kayo nakontak man lang ni vian. soweee! babawi ako pramis! =D
kay mam cachero at mam uy, mga ninang namin sa kasal.
kay borj, na nakatira na kasi sa bulacan at hindi basta-basta makakaluwas. kung marami lang kaming time, nagpunta sana kami senyo to see your baby. =)
sa mga spi friends ko, na kahit kakarampot na lang, mukhang marami pa rin sa ingay. hehe! maricor was trying to contact me through email, pero sa dami ng emails ko noon at sa kakaunting time na nakakapag-check ako, di ko na nabasang nagyaya pala silang lumabas! huhuhu!

sino pa ba, i'm sure marami pa kong nakalimutan. pasensya na talaga guys! two weeks is not really enough to meet everyone. sinuwerte na nga akong invited sa kasal ni dante kaya nakita ko doon si cinoy (from SPI days), eroll, jayr, gian, pau, ivan, alwin and may. nagkita din kami don nila zced, rommel, tenten, edrie at gemma... pero nakapunta din sila sa bday party ni eibron kaya nagkita pa kami ulet. hehe!

teka, patalon-talon na ko. i think i need to organize my thoughts muna. saka na ko magkukuwento ng blow by blow sa bakasyon ni eibron dito at yung bakasyon namin sa pinas, yung preps na lang muna. hahaha! feeling naman ako.

anyways, since ang last post ko ay about work, work update na lang muna.

remember the time na umiyak ako? *scroll down just a bit* after that, i was given another high priority work. high visibility talaga, to the point na kasama ko na sa meeting yung client, directors, managers at leads ng ibang departments. to cut the story short, we were able to provide assistance dun sa client, at natuwa naman daw sa amin.

just last week, nagkaron kami ng team meeting at ayun, we (the SQA manager and I) were awarded a Hats Off Award. that's my third in my close to 3 years tenureship!!! *woot woot!* at gusto ko man mainis kasi hindi yung amo ko ang nag-award sa amin kundi yung manager pa ng ibang department, ayos na rin. a Hats Off is a Hats Off award. it recognizes your hard work, dedication and commitment. kung sa mata man ng amo ko, hindi ko deserve yon... guess what, somebody in the higher ranks thinks otherwise. =P in my opinion it's sweeter than any appreciation i get from amo. hehehe!

and what's sweeter is... it comes with a $150 certificate that i can redeem from several establishments. hehe! the last 2 i got were at $100. o di ba, mas sosyalin yung nagbigay sa amin ngayon.

anyways, so that takes off the bad taste left on my mouth the last time. it's still early in the fiscal year to celebrate, but it looks like we will be able to control the work load better this time. still a lot of work to be done, but at least on this sorta-downtime, i'll take every chance i get going home on the dot. hehehe!

ok, so yung bakasyon wentos ko, utang muna. i think i need to sit down for a day and write about it.

in the meantime, patikim muna. my latest cousin, Dharica! kebibong bata! miss na namin sya ni hubby je! =)
sasama lang sya sayo pag meron kang "kult" (yakult). hehe!
