Yuletide Blessing (and curse)

Today is the 24th of December 2011... Christmas Eve.

So far I got 2 gifts. A pair of some classic comics that I had when I was a kid. And finally a job.

Since I was "let go" by the company I worked for more than 5 years. I've been to a not-so-fulfilling job for 2 weeks. A part-time job that somehow sustained my literature (comics) and tons of job application.

I got to be more "domesticated".

And now, I'm happy and so-say merry that I got a new job with a good pay.

...and the curse part. Well, I really realized that I had an unappealing boss in a form of my previous company's VP (back then AVP). Anyway, it is somehow irritating that she would make a "retrenchment-reunion party" at the end of this year. Too be honest, IT IS really not appealing. So that's why, I have to bear in mind that the 5 years I've went through them, I'm forced to just walk away and never remember it.

So here's the Top 3 reason why I will cut my connections from that cursed 5-years @ TDS:
(by the way, wasn't aware that there would be a segway to this...)
1.) JBW & JK (or better known as "The Management") ways of improperly investing to something that people like us can actually do. (investing to other stuff that would make them look good and not their people)
2.) Colleagues who I thought are Friends but are really front & back stabbers. Let's give some names... Wynner, JM, Marc, some from Training Dept, ES Dept.
3.) Leaders who you thought will be there to completely defend you, but in the end they didn't have the balls to protect the people they said to protect and guide.

Anyway, I guess I have to just really vent out my feelings after more than 3 months of just not saying anything. I just really feel bad about what happened. I blame the people there. And also I should have said something or acted something. Like a protest or really voice out. I guess I can't do anything but just move forward and never look back.

I know it's the time to be grateful and merry. I am grateful that this thing happened, made me be more tough on facing it. And never give up.

Oh well, since I already vented out (finally). It's time to really move forward and never look back. :)

been a while

yeah, it's been a while since i logged in into this blog. like almost a year.

anyway, i'm still the same sane person. :P

i just can't sleep right now. i guess sleeping from 2pm to 7pm wasn't that fulfilling for a sunday. but somehow, i got to catch-up right? hahaha

anyway, tomorrow i'm planning to catch the public transpo instead of driving to work. since the meeting was moved to tuesday. plus i have to fix things at the office on monday. like we have 2 on-sites for monday, fix up the banners for QCPU, jobs@night textblast, meeting at 6pm with a magazine group. and yeah, there's paying migs 500 for the itouch fixing and paying athan for the bulbs.

haaay... thinking about it, puno na pala monday ko. haaay.... better than that than doing nothing, right?

ayon, di pa rin ako inaantok ah... oh well... i guess i just have to read something, or do something right?

cge... next time uli. :)

pondering on stuff...

well, tomorrow... wait! make it 6 hours from now, I'll be turning 27.

27... three more years I'll be 30... wow. time do really run fast. or it's the other way around, where I'm too busy to notice how time moves. anyway, whatever... right now I'm turning 27 in a few hours.

and somehow, I want to do a short remembering the good ol' days... but I can't seem to to do that right now. I just don't have the time or the effort to do it... hahaha

all I can say that this year, pointing to 2009... it's been a challenging year for me so far. a lot of "tests" in life... and somehow, I'm managing to survive from it, but with a lot of injuries came with the surviving part. compared to the previous years, I'm seem to have a lot of mishaps in these "life tests".

anyway, I just hope things will turn out more good when I reached 27. Thou I know it's always up to myself on how should I take care of my life. but I just hope that things will start to fall for me in the right places.

oh well, I'm all by myself right now in my workstation, and I think I'm deciding to leave early for I need to sleep and somehow catch the 2nd to last episode of Smallville later on TV.

anyway, I guess i better greet myself a Happy and hopefully, a Prosperous Birthday for me.

starting to get better...

ok ok... i just can't help it. i made the first move yesterday. i really missed my best friend at work. and hanging out with them after work makes it fun to stay with them...

so there, just like last time (more than 5 years ago with my other best friend)... feeling really nervous, i approached my best friend at work and somehow, he replied. and after leaving the office, i just really can't help but smile all the time. and i, somehow, sees his happiness too.

somehow, i guess we learned from each mistakes and now we're cool w/o really asking it.

i'm really happy that things are getting better and somehow lesson learned too. also, many thanks to my "spit-bucket" for being there!! :D

anyway, below are pictures i've taken where we ate a late dinner at yellow cab in morato.


it was fun! c",)

yey!!

the art/ad work i did for my company's has already been placed in multiply.com...

and it's posted on the inbox & log-out page, w/c is very noticeable by the users of multiply.com

anyways, here's what the ads looks like...
