Last Day at the Realm

Here I am sitting in front of my computer just an hour away before we start moving our things to our new place... It seems like that I'm not yet ready to move out of this house. Don't know if I'm being just too setimental about this... Hay... How I wish we don't anymore need to leave this place... I guess that this is life, sometimes we just need to go on with life... Hopefully our new place will be done and ready for occupancy by at most 8 weeks from tomorrow. And hopefully the room in which we will first place our things in our new place would be secure enough for us not to lose our things. It's difficult to change something where we are so comfortable with... Hopefully this change would be beneficial to all of us...

A Half-Enjoyable and Half-Disappointing Day..

This day went by sooo fast... I've been on training for the past two (2) days and upon returning to the office today, I seemed lost as to what I must do. So I spent half of my morning reading mails to update myself as to the status of the things that I am doing. And spent the other half of the morning preparing for our picture taking for our new ID. The bad thing is that I forgot that today is our photoshoot and the reason why I forgot it is because that someone told me that we are not included on the list on who will have their pictures taken for we are still under probation. So I just wore a polo that's not too formal, actual a checkered blue shirt, which I felt was not very appropriate for the event. What I just do is to borrow someone's coat and necktie to make my attire somewhat formal. I just hope that the outcome of the my photoshoot for my ID wouldn't be that terrible..

Come after lunch, I was almost late for my meeting this afternoon because we had lunch at The Pizza Company at Market! Market! and we also went to our medical center for our officemate's checkup and clearance. Actually I didn't know that I had a meeting, it's a good thing that I texted my SA that I will be a bit late going back to the office and she told me that she kinda heard that I was going with our systems manager to a meeting. The meeting went by so fast for we are also eating while having a meeting. How I wish that we always had a meeting in their office. It seems like that their office doesn't run out of food.ü While having the meeting, I received a text message saying that I had won two (2) premier night tickets for a show today in Megamall so I immediately think of someone whom I could ask to go with me. I came back to our office at around past 6 still with no one to join me. Actually there was this friend of mine whom I think would go with me but unfortunately before leaving the office, I called him up and told me that he can't go out with me for he had a previous engagement already. I was a starting to get frustrated for he didn't told me that he can't make it. I got out of the office at around 7pm already and the premier is at 7:30 for I thought that I could have a ride immediately at MRT but I was wrong. The traffic was so bad and there was sooo many people in the MRT station. I was soo frustrated with the whole situation but I can't do anything about it so around before 8pm, I called up the person who texted me about the premier night tickets and told her that I can't anymore make it for the traffic was sooo bad! So I just decided to went home.. I think having no one to join me was one of the main reasons why I didn't anymore watch the movie. Hay.. I didn't anymore made my weekly report for I thought that I could make it to the movie but I was wrong.. I was really upset regarding the whole situation but I don't blame anyone.. Just the situation..

Nervous Freak

It's now only a few hours before our second alumni game and seems like I'm getting a bit nervous.. Hopefully our team will perform better tonight even though some of my players can't make it tonight and that hopefully I could give enough motivation to the team as their coach.. For tongiht, we will be facing one of the two strongest teams in the league.. Hay.. Wish us luck..

Training Day

I spent the whole day not in the office but in our company's learning center. We had a great time knowing the different departments, functions, policies, guidelines, etc. of the company. It's actually an orientation for new employees. And the best of it all, by around 3:30pm we are already done for the day's training.. How I wish that we had a training feveryday so that I could go home early and rest.. Hehe! Tomorrow we will be touring the different buildings and offices of the company.. I'm kinda excited because it will be a new experience for me.. Hopefully nothing bad will happen tomorrow.. Hehe!

Is it a sign..?

What a way to start a week! I was almost late again today. It’s not that I’m always late; it’s just that I try my best not to be late for work since I’m still under probation. I didn’t also mean that I will be always late after my probationary period. Haha! Why am I so defensive..? Umm.. Hahaha!ü The LRT that I ride on stop twice for approximately a total of 7-10 minutes because there is still a train on the next station. And after that, the jeepney that I rode broke down and we have to transfer to another jeepney. But since I was sitting at the end on the first ride, I was the last to get my money back and to transfer to the next jeepney available. The good thing is that there was already an almost empty jeepney behind us but since I was the last one to get out of my first ride, I didn’t anymore have any space to sit on the next jeepney so I was standing for the first few minutes of the ride. Hopefully I won’t have any more bad luck for this next coming days…

Changes..

Changing hues, the change of seasonsWill leave you no cluesAs desperation spreads within a broken soulLife leaves you feeling dead…

First few lines of the song “Perfect” by True Faith. I could somehow relate to the lyrics. Over the weekend, I spend my time cleaning and packing my things for this coming Friday, we will be moving our things to our new home. But the problem is that our new house is nowhere near complete and the engineer just ordered his carpenter to first fix one room of the house where we can place our things while waiting for the house to be finished. We were already requested by the owner of our old house to already move out. He was also willing to lend us his truck to help us to move our things which I was thankful for it. The problem while packing up our things is that we still don’t have water in our old house so it is very hard to pack our things. But we’ve got no choice, either there is water or not, we’ve got to pack and move our things because we were already given a deadline to move our things by the end of the month so I spend most of my time during last week’s long weekend cleaning up my things. I was a bit sad though because I wasn’t able to join my friends to their relaxing Tagaytay trip last weekend for it’s a overnight event and I can’t afford the time for I still have lots of things to pack up.

I was talking to my barkada after packing up most of my things and somehow I got teary-eyed when I told her that we will be moving out by the end of the week. Hopefully she didn’t notice that. Like what she said, there are lots of memories in our place. My barkada used to spend their afternoon after class in our house either playing basketball or just playing guitar or just talking and making fun of each other. Somehow I wish that we would not anymore need to transfer to a new place for I am already very comfortable with it but I know that it is not already possible. Well hopefully everything will turn out okay on our new place...

First Time Coach - Standing: 0 wins and 1 loss

What a way to start our alumni basketball league. We had our first game yesterday with me as the first time assistant coach and the one calling the shots. We should and could have won that game but I think we were really not meant to win the game. We were leading for the first half of the game but suddenly the tables turned with our team facing a deficit at the next half of the game. I'm not blaming anybody or anyone. But I somehow put part of the blame to myself for not being able to adjust quickly to the game situation. My barkada told me that it's alright that we lost last night's game. The important thing is the lessons that I learned during that game. I felt that I came into the game unprepared for some situations and being able to talk regarding specific instructions before the game.. I felt that somehow they already know their roles in the team but now I know that I must talk to them and relay specific instructions into the game. I never knew that coaching is this tough.. Hopefully our team could perform better on our next game..

Monster in Red

I just noticed this morning that everytime I'm sad or angry over something at home, usually I pick my red polo over the rest of the clothes that I have in my closet. I don't know why.. Did I picked it accidentally or intentionally? Maybe it happens because I don't have lots of clothes that I could wear in the office. But as I walked to the LRT station, I somehow came to realize that maybe it is just a disguise that I put on to myself (since color red means happy). I know that problems at home should be left at home and problems at the office should be left in the office but sometimes I cannot help myself not to think of our problems at home here in the office. It's a good thing though that when I come into the office, my mind's distracted as to the things and tasks that I need to do and accomplish for the day and I have lots of crazy and wacky officemates to cheer me up.

That's the usual reason why I tend to spend more time here in the office than go home early. The thing regarding our new building still isn't getting better as of the moment and the situation we have regarding our previous place still isn't getting better also. We still don't have water there. It's already been more than at least a month and the house is getting dirtier as another day pass by. The water in our aquarium is now almost color green.. It's the good thing that our fish is still alive but I don't thing that it can last in that kind of situation. Hay.. When will this be all over.. =(
