(am blogging from my phone btw and am so loving it!) i know dt my friends miss me already and so i wil take tym 2 make up for d lost hours and moments.. artei.. i've got lots of things to say but it's already 7am and i haven't had any sleep yet i need to go to work at 2pm later.. till then.. mwah..

when it rains...

it really damn pours!.. almost 2 months after i resigned from peoplesupport.. i will finally work again.. this time at west contact services.. another call center.. pioneer batch and i will have a freaking signing bonus.. equal to the amount of my basic pay!.. haha.. and at long last, i will get my backpay from ps which should be at least substantial enough for me to give in to my caprices.. haha..

pre-occupied

it's been a while since my last post. and during that period, lots of things happened that even i gets amused by it. i resigned from work. i had a boyfriend. we broke up. after 5 days, ai met this wonderful guy. who's promised to be everyhting that i have wished for. and so far, he's not letting me down. fate works mysteriously. i was kind of devastated when i broke up with rich. but then again, jay-r proved to be someone else. we clicked. both of our families know that we're together. and there's no you-and-me-against-the-world drama. also money is not an issue with my relationship with jay-r. and by that, i'm overwhelmingly happy. haha.. love it. but i have to find a job though, coz christmas is coming and my responsibilities come knocking in our door every month. so busy. so busy with my boyfriend.

sapul.

so much of my hiatus diba.. pro i just want to share this post.. sinulat ng writer/director na si jun lana. i accidentally landed on his blog at nagsimulang magbasa, but it was 15 minutes later when i realized na hindi basta basta ung author ng mga blogs na binabasa ko.. at habang senti sentihan ang tugtog ko na sana'y maulit muli ni ate regine, ayun, sapul ako sa blog ni jun lana.. grabe.. it talks about your one great love.. basahin nyo..

hiatus

i need a break..

from duties and obligations. work is on its prime as the worst place that i could be. i just wanna have fun. breathe and relax. widen my horizon. and oh, one of the reasons why i'm not blogging is because i'm busy.. with flirting. maybe, this way i forget about that schmuck.

loving shower

my good good everfriend from highschool, kate, is going to get married at september 10 with her college boyfriend, bj. and i'm truly happy for her coz she goddamn deserves it. and to be happy and to be with a person whom she loves and who loves her more. i also am so grateful that tinie (also a certified everfriend) and i will be their veil minister. that means, i have to look extra gorgeous coz i would have several pictures and i'd be in the video too. vanity strikes.

it was yesterday that kate, bj and some friends arranged a dinner. but since i came home at around 4pm. i wasn't able to attend. actually i lied to them kasi sabi ko, galing ako work, pro galing talaga ko sa trinoma to meet my old friends from IBM (read my previous post) mismanagement of time kung bakit di ako nakapunta and besides, akala ko eh may resistensiya ako ni varga who can do anything!. char!.

i woke up at 10pm na. i checked my cell and i missed lots of call from them. coz they're already in the surprise shower party of kate which was planned and organized by her twin sis, also a good friend, kris. i called back right away to ask kung hanggang anong oras sila dun para kung pwede pa ko sumunod. and they said that they'll be there until kinabukasan. so fasteret ako sa pagligo at pag-ayos para maka-tumbling ako dun kasi kris said that there'll be a male stripper!. ahihi.. it was in bsa mansion pala near greenbelt.

i was able to get there in the nick of time kasi maya2 eh lumabas na yung stripper and oh my f*cking ass he looks like my old flame from high school ping!.. so eerie.. pro alexis (the name? of the stripper) is older and much heavier. in fernez, talaga.. ka-fez xa ng ultimate love kong si ping!. so prang may pantasya factor i2.. ahihi.. kris said that alexis is working at adonis which is a gay bar i guess, i don't know i'm not familiar!. char!. he went all the way.. making some of us feel and touched 'it'.. and i was one of them. eh hindi ko naman gusto talaga!. char!. sa sobrang hindi ko gusto eh i can't even remember na if the guy was wearing shoes when he was 'dancing' coz you know that my eyes were glued somewhere else examining his anatomy!. haha..

alexis did his job. mara, wanted to have some pictures taken with him fully clothed. and so we did. kaloka talaga kasi not only that he looks like ping pero he sounds also like him nung nagsalita!. no, but we know hindi siya si ping. siguro pwede na siya for me!. ahaha.. char!. and then he left na. sana pala hinatid ko siya pababa at dun kami sa fire exit dumaan!. char!.

after the 'educational' show, may games din. like palakihan sa paggawa ng condom balloon. after which, may konting inumang naganap pero hindi ako masyado uminom since i didn't have a decent sleep. eventhough wala pa akong kain pagkagising ko, parang nabusog ako ng todo sa mga naganap na eksena.. laudable si alexis.. hehe..

i didn't plan it but i also wasn't able to help but cry a little. i cried because i am genuinely happy for kate. i even requested for celine dion's because you loved me para may moment talaga. yung song na kasi yun eh para tlaga sa mga everfriends ko. so sakto ung lyrics lalo na ung chorus.. haaay.

we went home at around 6am na but i needed money muna so pumunta muna kami ni tinie sa mcdo pra mag take-out ng hot choco at para maghanap ng chinabank atm sa greenbelt. at aun. after a very long, tiring, fun-filled day, i was able to have a nice sleep which i badly need.

whoring with IBMers

it's been a year since my friends from IBM and i had a get together. and so yesterday, august 30, four of my good and wacky friends decided to watch a movie. and it was the movie of star cinema i guess which i didn't have an idea who are the lead stars! char!.. trinoma ang meeting place. and my gosh, effort magpunta dun ah. i rarely take mrt and lrt.. cgro wla pang 5 times combined na un!.. coz i just don't like the experience of what you had to put up para makapunta ka lang sa pupuntahan mo. it's like you should've had a decent meal, took your daily vitamins and you have a bag that can truly safeguard your stuff bago ka mag-mrt dahil challenge talaga siya teh!..

i was out from work at 10 am and since sabi nila vhanny, jownie at pam eh 11 am, eh di tumbling agad ako sa mrt. which explained kung bakit ko in-air ang hinanakit ko kapag sasakay ka ng mrt.

no choice kasi it's far from makati and i needed to be there quick. since it was morning, the train wasn't as jampacked as i dreaded but i was unfortunately seated next to an ugly perv. kadiri at kairita talaga. if he was good looking then i could've given it a thought of me flirting back. but he's so not!..

and what do you know, i made it in one piece!.. the meeting place was starbucks at the top floor sa outside garden churva. i was on time as usual. at ang mga puta wala pa rin!. c vhanny sa qc manggagaling, c jownie sa santolan lng, c pam at abby sa rob gale nman. at ako pa rin ang nauna. i wanted to smoke some cig while waiting for them so tiniis ko ang init kahit asa ilalim ako ng shade ng trademark ng green big bang na payong ng starby.. anong petsa na?.. dumating sila ng 12 na. tanghaling tapat, mainit, wala pa kong tulog, pinagpapawisan at hulas na ng make up ko so natural lang na medyo uminit ang ulo ko kasi kahit lahat kami eh nagtatrabaho sa call centers, local time naman ung 11 o'clock na pinag-usapan!

mega take out na lang kami ng food since late sila at mag-uumpisa na ang movie. eh d un na, wala lang.. more more drama ang mga eksena sa movie. at sigurado nainis ung mga malapit na naka-upo sa amin kasi puro kami comment!.. haha.. but the movie was good.. char! i didn't like it. i thought kasi that it would be a romantic comedy.. i wasn't informed that dramarama sa hapon pala ang effect!

after the movie, we toured the mall. me being a frequent greenbelt/glorietta shopper (window shopper kung minsan) is not familiar wth trinoma. and trinoma is not familiar with me as well! char!.. we were cam whoring the whole tme! we didn't give an ounce of care if people were looking at us wannabe models. we're friends and we missed each other ng sobra! i bet you had a sort of similar moments with your own friends din.. and i know i'm right!

less and new

it has been a month since i was assigned and trained to take a new line of business in my account.. from level 1 to level 2.. i ended my first month in the specialty queue without hitting any metrics! i really felt that i didn't deserve the promotion of sort. and i don't settle for mediocre.. i wasn't born and i didn't grow up to be fine with a performance that's not remarkable and which is under par of my standard. with focus and hard work, i was able to do better. i was able to hit some but not all. still i'm happy that i improved. which is acceptable because there's still an elbow room to do good the next time.
but things are changing. people are leaving. and adjustment is inevitable. my supervisor of 6 months made the choice to leave the company reasonably because a better opportunity awaits her. also a former mentor and team-mate resigned as well. plus, a budding friend said that she too is resigning. i know that what is happening is natural. but i still can't help but be sad about it.

it was the time of the year again for realignment. meaning, new team, new team mates. and with all of this change, i hope i can cope with it coz it has always been hard for me when the situation calls for me to adopt new environment or whatnot.

100th

and so after almost two years of blogging (or not blogging).. this post is my 100th.. and this marks another chapter in the making.. i would like to thank my dad for buying this pc that i'm using and myself for paying the bills for our broadband. darn. i'm not a great writer who does win every reader with my posts but at least i try to keep it true and make sure that every post has an authentic "rhon" in it. blogging in a way is a therapy for me coz whatever that occupies my mind as long as it is blog-potential, i blog it. i so love the idea that people all over the world can read what i have to say and some of them can relate to it.

and so, to you who's reading this, thank you.

4 celebration in 9 days..

late posting. the first 2 weeks of this month was full of events that i have attended. which only means, gathering with loved ones where food and alcohol was served. aside from good memories, calories were surely gained!

august 2 was the day when my nephew, mathew eron, was baptized to enter the catholic world. my pretty sister, ate erika, the courageous single mom of mathew made the celebration happen by herself and with our help as well. no monetary assistance was given by the d*ckhead (mathew's father). she has every reason to be sad and bitter about her marriage to her estranged husband who's not worthy to be posted here in my site. but the day should be for my nephew who we fondly call matteo. and he was so adorable and cute! he will have the guidance of his 14 ninongs and 14 ninangs. and that's a lot. which is rightful coz the kid is such an angel.

august 4 was the 51st birthday of my father, ernesto. i actually had to work on that day but good thing that my supervisor allowed me not to go to work on that day because it's my dad's bday nga. and my father was so appreciative that all of us were there. and since he likes music and a good singer too, we were having videoke until the wee hours.

august 9 was the reunion drama of me and my college best buds. again, on that night i had to go to work. but since my supervisor was on leave and enjoying her vacay in palawan, i dared to go to our reunion at mall of asia even if it means that i'd have a verbal warning for my poor attendance. well, it was fun. i was 7 hours late!. haha. the mini-reunion happened because one of my good friends was back here in town. it's mama jacq from qatar with money and love!. since it's been 2 years when we were freed by lyceum, it was sort of right time to have a get together. and many came. it was fun seeing familiar faces. some changed for the better, some still looked the same and some was unnoticeable. mean! haha. but since i was so late, i missed the dinner treat of mama jacq at la mesa grill. i came when they were at padi's point na. which by the way was such a challenge to find coz that was only my 2nd time at moa. pictures everywhere! am a camwhore that's given but my friends are also like me so you can just imagine the camera flashes which are so many. we parted at around 6am and after that i went to the office so i wouldn't be tagged as absent, just a halfday!.

august 11 was my ate erika's 27th birthday. we're rich that's why we made it a separate occasion from her son's christening and from our dad's birthday! hehe. it was my rest day that's why i woke up late. and because of that i only had spaghetti then beer na agad. which was overflowing. we tried to consume it all (sayang kasi) but we're so intoxicated na that i cna barely take another sip. and that's not a pretty sight. when that happens, i automatically shy away from camera! haha.
