Extraordinary Bond

It was exactly my second week in the office. My day was quite normal, still adjusting with the environment and the people surrounding me. I kept looking at my watch as I want this seemingly long day to end and hit that 5 o’clock.  Suddenly a chinita girl was introduced to us. Whoa! There’s a newly hired employee, I’m not alone anymore! I was relieved, as if my anxiety abruptly vanished. I couldn’t remember our first conversation but I guess it would likely be in the comfort room. =)
Even if we were from different teams, we would take afternoon breaks together. I was happy that there is at least one I could confide my sentiments with and help each other adapt.  After some time, we were able to finally harmonized with our own groups.  Still, I wouldn’t forget the highlights of my firsts in the company with her.
Our batch was nonetheless fortunate to have experienced so far the last grand Christmas Party. Memories of our xmas dance practices will always be remembered. I knew we all were excited! We even won the first place! =) During summer, our company initiation was held.  Once more, it was an experience we took together with all other new comers. Instead of us being terrified, it turned out to be the other way around hahaha! 
Dinner and lunch together, sleepover, road trip together, and simple good times at workplace are inserted here.
Now after almost 4 years, She is moving on.
Good luck Mel-o!  You’ll surely be missed. We are always here for you. Di mabubuo ang GERZEN kung wala ka… Waaah, nauna ka pa sakin =P

Workmates' Appreciation Day

Do you have workmates who inspire you in odd ways?
I DO!!!

These people are the people I most of the time take for granted. It's time that I thank my workmates, ooppps, I'd rather call them playmates for being exceptionally fun, and not toxic. Though not everyone is, I am lucky to still got a few of them, lol! :)

So, calling all the working people out there, it's time to really express your gratitude towards your officemates or teammates. You never know when any of them will ever work with you again.

my own version ^-^

I was delighted when I saw the price of mangoes dropped by 50% last weekend. It's mango season in the Philippines and I wish it has no season at all because mango is one of my favorite fruits, yeah ripe and the green ones! Without thinking twice, I decided to make this simple dessert that I got from my mom. I only added all purpose cream nyahaha. This is the second time I made this. It's very very simple. Even graders can do it hahaha! My boys (dad, siblings) love it! Here is the photo of the end product =)

can't even think of one

I want to blog again but I don't know where to start or even how to start maybe. It's been years that I have been accustomed to writing in 140 characters or less. And for me exceeding that limit is a lot of writing already! Ha! Well some say it's a skill. It's a TALENT, it's an ART - for you to convey your message slash feelings in that limited characters of post. But it's alarming at least for me, because not only do I lose the enthusiasm of writing in its real sense, but It gets me feeling bored when reading long posts as well.

Perhaps I should try blogging with a core topic like what my real blogger friends do. They were there when I started and they are still here! :)  I am not promising anything but I'm challenging myself in this. Best of luck to me ☺
