Here’s the exciting part. I didn’t notice that we already spent almost 3 hours in the ladies section. We had fun picking lingerie and underwear. Hehe. As if we’re teenagers who just start buying those stuffs. After 3 long hours, I have decided to buy 6 pieces of bra (LOL) and Grasya bought 3 wrap around coat (plan to wear in

Luckily, he made it through the tough training and was deploy 3 days later. I am happy for him, really. I know he need the job and he’s working hard to study and review those ‘jargons’ he doesn’t even know.
Every now and then, he’ll ask me about this router, that port, this switch, that internet, cable and etchetera etchetera – which honestly speaking; I didn’t even know some of them. Hehehe
Good thing about his new job, I made friends to his Manileños team mate and training batchmates. Though ‘Tagalog’ is said to be the ‘Philippine National Language’, I am not really used to speak in tagalog. I am ‘Bisaya’ and i‘d rather speak English than comically speak tagalog.
I had then met with these bunches of good people twice and honestly, I keep myself silent and simply enjoys listening to whatever they say. One time, they asked me to translate the ‘Tagalog’ words into Bisaya and I couldn’t believe how good it is to change ideas. I am blessed to gain new friends like them.
My boyfriend has the
Call center agent is then not an easy or an effortless job and will never be simple. So for those to think their job is as simple as it looks, you definitely got it wrong. Don’t even put them down because no job in the world is easy at all.

The Escape
So I’m waiting in Miss Yu’s faculty cubicle, and my eyes are playing around the arrangement of her small cubicle. Up-down, down-up, left-right, right-left, I raise my eyebrow and put an evil smile on my face. Is this their cubicle? Goodness, my closet is bigger than this. This is sick, so boring, and so gross. So I sneak around, trying to find Miss Yu and accidentally eavesdrop her talking to the Principal. What the heck is this? I just whispered something to Jojo and I’m here as if I killed a rat. What should I do? Should I act really innocent or show myself as wild as a jumping horse? Frown! Frown! I look through the window and saw the 5 bitches waving at me. Oh my! Shelly has arrived. Come on, I have to go now. What’s the fucking matter with Miss Yu? She’s torturing me. Frown! Frown! FROWN! Jeez, I can’t be mad. I have to relax or I will spoil my entire day. Now that Shelly has arrived, the more I need to relax because I missed that bitch and she’s got stories to tell me, I’m soooo really need to go.
I can’t hold it any longer; so I slowly walk towards the door, tip toed as if I’m a goddamn prisoner trying to escape. Slowly but surely, one two three, step-step-walk, I have to act real fast. Frown! I’m almost there, and I should grab the door knob really fast and run. Finally! “Open it! Open it!” I can feel the burning fuel inside, and I’m desperate so I slowly twist the door knob and decide to run in one, two and thr…
“Ehem!”
I slowly look back, and it’s Miss Yu.

HS Continues
I sit at the first seat of the second row and next to me are Miles and Jojo. Kris and Med sat infront and in between them is a vacant seat for Shelly. Med and Kris are the brain of the group and they always fought the top 1 rank in the class all the time. Though they’re competing for the spot, they’re still friends since they have a friendly competition. Actually, Med was always on the rank 1 since 1st grade, next to her are random students who is either 5 points below her or 10. The competition just started when Kris transferred to our school in 4th grade. Kris is a former student of a good school in Davao City. She needs to transfer school since her Dad was assigned to work in our town. Kris became one in the group when she approached me and asked for help. Kris is my cousin and I knew her though we’re not close since we haven’t had the chance to be when she’s still in DC. Med is friendly, so adding Kris to the group is never a problem to her. Surprisingly, they start competing over the top 1 rank in every grading period of 4th grade, with 1 point behind or 2, switching places from rank 1 and 2.
So Shelly needs to sit beside them – in between them to be exact. It is not because she’s the referee but because she needed their brain. Shelly might not be dull but she’s the lowest among the six of us and she’s most likely to fail if not helped. Shelly’s not around today because she’s still in Manila for a vacation. Shelly may not be smart but she’s the richest among us. Her family owns the largest convenience store in town; her mom manages the business since her Dad travels a lot for business. She has a sister, 2 years older and a junior in the same high school. We call her sister “S” since both of them starts with She. If we try to contact Shelly, we need to tell the whole name and not the usual “She” because her sister’s name is Sheryl. So Sheryl is one of meanest girl in school. Just like us, this girl got her own group and also a popular one. She’s mean because she’s frank, straight and honest. She tells you what she thinks about you with 100% honesty, more of what is true and less of what is unnecessary. She might be mean – but Sheryl, me and the rest of my group are cool; simply because we are on the same league. We’re mean and she’s just the meanest. So Shelly’s elder sis is the meanest and she’s the opposite of her. Shelly rather keeps herself tight and center if things got unpleasant. She says “you’re hairclips are pretty” just to make the girl who adores her feel good about herself eventhough the hairclips are not pretty at all. Yes, she tends to lie but that’s because she didn’t want to hurt anybody’s feelings. She’s sensitive and a cry-baby.
It’s boring to keep staring at the vacant seat but it’s more boring to listen to teacher’s lesson, whatever he’s saying duh! So the usual me plays again with my ballpen and prays it’s already the end of the day. Why is it party day has to end so soon and class has to end really long? Frown! I am wishing for the bell – recess time please.
I can’t tell how time passes by but it’s already lunch time. Oh my God, what happened to the recess time? It’s really funny to realize that Recess Time is for grade school only and there’ll be no more recess time in high school. So this will be our first lunch break together in new school, new uniform, new canteen, new school year and new everything. This is it, high school year has started and this will be the first time to pick which table to occupy for the rest of the school year. So we need a table with 6 chairs, and we couldn’t find one. All is there, a square table with 4 chairs. What are we going to do now? We can’t have that; we need round table and 6 chairs. This is just great, jeez! I can feel the pressures since the students are coming in and the canteen has started to look crowded. So I talked to a lady who works in the canteen and asked if she can help us. Unfortunately, the school doesn’t have a round table. Ahhhh! I’m so dismayed and I’m really hungry now. If we put 2 tables together and get 2 extra chairs, that would be good but we will ruin the entire table setting of the canteen and if we do that, I don’t think the canteen manager will like it. But we have no choice; so we broke the arrangement, put the two tables together, grab additional 2 chairs and got ourselves a new place to eat. Then just as I thought, the canteen manager approached us and she’s standing right infront of me. So I give her my sweetest smile, ask the rest to cute themselves and request for her to reconsider, and then smile again.
Do you really want to know how powerful a sweet smile is?.... Ask her. Hah! The spot is ours now and will be ours till the school year ends.

So, I am freshman and it is the first day of school. I haven’t had a sweet sleep last night because my excitement can’t make my eyes fall asleep and eventually spent my night dreaming with my eyes wide open. Now, I blame myself. I am too sleepy to roam around the campus and enjoy the “Big Brother, Big Sister Welcome” party. I can see smiles everywhere and I feel like a princess wearing my new uniform. At last, my mom has to keep my grade school uniform after six long years of wearing ‘that’ blue uniform and I am now wearing green. I am not really surprise who’s to see today. I knew most of the popular gal and guys in school since most of them are my friends. I am neither sure what makes us popular but it is no fun at all since I have to keep myself look at my best because everyone expects me to look good always. I can’t really imagine how a friend of mine look so hot in her uniform while someone I don’t know somewhere not really far away looked terrible in the same colored uniform. Perhaps I am judging too much or maybe I just saw the truth.
Just like a habit, I am sitting at the bleacher, just like what I always do in grade school. I sit here not relax myself but to make my eyes work. Yes, I have this bad habit – well we all does. My eyes will be the worst critic in the history of HC High School because it’s easy for me to point who is “trying-hard”, who’s “humble” and who’s “who did not care at all”.
A girl on ponytail with green ribbon had my eyes. What the heck this girl is thinking? She shouldn’t be wearing ponytail since her face is so round. Is she imitating my friend Kris? Ponytail started as a hair “statement” when Kris starts wearing it. Ponytail is really cute on her because she’s got this heart-shaped face and if you adore Kris so much, you’ll likely copy her style. I frown, not because I’m bored but because I can’t make a sigh. Sighing is a “no-no” in the group; we see it as unpretty and unglamorous. If I knew that girl, I would come right in front of her and tell her to change her style asap.
So, what’s my plan for today? Other than judging people who come across me, there’s nothing more to think about and I don’t want to give a little attention to class; if class starts, I will be the most boring girl and will just play with my ballpen.
Speaking of ballpen, I was in 5th grade when Med bought 6 ballpens with glitters. I had the yellow one since I did not choose which color I’d like. Five of us picked their colors first and what was left was mine. I don’t really mind what color at all, and I would feel lighter at heart if they will have their preferred colors. So Med had the red, Kris with pink, Miles with lilac, Jojo with sky blue, Shelly with orange, then mine’s the yellow. We actually can’t use the pen in making homework and quizzes because our teachers require either blue or black – yeah, so boring colors but they’re particular about formality – so we used the glittering pen for out slum book and autograph notebook instead. We find the pen really cute, we always bring it along, we talked about and we make our slum book and autograph stand out the crowd – all by just using the pen. Then people starts recognizing the cute pens and they start buying the same stuff. Funny, isn’t it? I just smiled every time someone tells me she got the “yellow” glittering pen. I don’t really know what to reply because I don’t know what it means she’s got the “yellow” one. Is she idolizing me? I laughed inside. I don’t really choose the color. It so happen – it is what was left when everyone seem enjoying picking their favorite color. Does she know I prefer brown than yellow? Maybe I’m a little wicked. I did not choose among the pens when Med asked us to choose one – simply because I didn’t see brown in them. Besides, if there happens to be brown, no one will pick it since they knew it’s mine. So, I am puzzled what should I be telling this girl – this 6th grader girl.
Miles is the sweetest girl in the group and most of the 6th grader boys like her. So Miles got this straight hair, cute nose, red kissable lips, well-curved eyebrows, and two cute dimples. For me, Miles is the sexiest. The 6 of us almost have the same figure though, but I just like her body. If you see 6th grader guys flirting outside our class room – means it’s just an ordinary day. Those pieces of junks are always there to see the beautiful lady and I see them really hopeless. Did they know Miles hate guys like them? Miles prefer a guy who doesn’t seem to give her much attention – just like Noli. If you want Miles to notice you, ignore her. And Noli seem to pay her less attention because this guy would rather spend time talking to his pal, Jam.
Someone blind-folded me with a hand, and cut my daytime traveling through time. Wow, I think I froze for quite a time since I haven’t noticed Jojo sat beside me and Miles blind-folded me. The past really got me into daydreaming and ate me. So Jojo noticed my new doll shoes and start asking me where I bought it. I don’t pay much attention because I see Med and Kris coming. Miles, like me, is in deep thoughts. I am not sure what she’s thinking about but Kris snap her figures in front of her and wake her up. Like Jojo, Med noticed my doll shoes. Everyone seems to like them, so I tell them to buy a new pair of doll shoes too.
Finally, the program has started. The students crowded the bleachers; and I can now feel the heat and start feeling uneasy. I say “relax” to myself and asked Kris if she brought her fan. Before I heard the Principal announce the welcoming speech for the freshman, everyone already clapping their hands and whistling, so we start waving and smile.

School term ended yesterday and I am so thankful cos I could pass them all certainly. School term ended but another term is yet to come. 2 weeks from now, I will get another 15 units subject loads and life will be a lot busier, I guess. Just this week, I’ve been invited to a wedding of two of my friends. One was our Pastor’s daughter’s wedding, and later today will be a guy friend’s wedding. Ate Tit’s wedding went pretty well. She looked marvelous and she looked stunning in her pink motiff wedding. She deserves it. No wonder why I didn’t even hesitate to sing on her wedding cos it was a great pleasure.
Recently, I became a huge Aya Ueto fan. Yes, she’s more than adorable. Credits go to her tv drama called “Attack No. 1”. Now, I’m looking forward to watching all of her movies and drama series; hotelier and Shimokita Sundays are on the list
I’m at work and felt like writing on my blog today. But there is one thing I really miss…. my CR account. So today, I have decided to go back there and use the account again. I already asked a MOD to unban me so I can get through. Once approved, I’m back to CR business again. Heh
Anyway, on October 26th, we will be having our Annual Company Retreat. So i will be off to the glorious nature that i haven't been in for so many months. Yeah, I’m expecting fun and hopefully, will give me enough time to chill, relax and rest.
That would be all for today. My day is a bit lax today and I’m bored.

I have decided, my friends must have their time to shine – and this will happen now. I dedicate this precious space to the most wonderful friends I had in my life. I can name more than a dozen, I only picked those who are/were really closed to me.
Let’s begin with the closest girl in my heart. I call this girl Grasya, and we call each other ‘Madam’. I thought our ‘alias’ has become a Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon because after we used it, it became popular. Madam Grasya is my dorm mate way back in College. We were ‘super’ close. One thing I like about her – was the habit of walking into my room, and we talked till dawn. Madam loves to lie down beside me while the rest of the dorm mates come into my room to join the talk. There were nights that my room was fully loaded and some of them even slept on the floor. Madam is the sweetest among my friends. She’s thoughtful and kind. We finally left the dorm after we graduated and she got married to her long lost first love.
I call this boyish girl ‘Issa’, her full name is Melissa. She’s one of the smartest students in High School and I never had a hard time with my projects and assignments because she’s always been there to help. There was a time when we randomly absent on the class, she told me she was alone without me and I told her that I’m so blank without her too. We always eat our lunch together and we study together. Issa is a type of girl who will just read her fave John Grisham (and the likes) books and novelties during Physics class and answer (our teacher’s) surprise question like a pro. One thing I treasured from this gal was the poetry she wrote (for me) using and/or combining song titles and lyrics.
This is the most practical and liberated girl in the group. She’s the usual party girl you see at the bars and disco clubs. No matter how busy this cute little angel, she always makes time for me. Her name is Chin, the super sexy and super daring gal in the gang. She’s the type of girl who’s so loud and outspoken – a tactless, I would say (smile). This girl loves nightlife. She can stay outside all night, drink, and get drunk – but this girl is a Nursing student and she managed to keep her good grades. See how amazing she is, I agree.
Chang-Chang is the first person I get to close on my first job. She’s definitely an out-going person, so cheerful and so jolly. You can see in her a very simple posture; a girl who love jeans, plain shirt and wears eyeglasses – is a brain buster. She’s a programming geek and a mathematician by words. This very thin lady ironically loves to eat – as in super eat. We always eat together and she always beat me when it comes to eating. However, her metabolism works so fast and I’m left with the gaining alone. Lately, I discovered she was the Salutatorian inGrade School (oh my!).
Now, I present to you the ‘eye catcher’ in the group. Her name is Lovey, and she’s a goddess to my most male friends. There is not 1, not 2 but more than 3 male friends (that I have) who fell for her extraordinary beauty. This girl is still single and I can’t really tell why so. She’s not dating anyone too and she’s always open to group dating. Lovey is my college freshman classmate and (by fate) became my officemate after the long 5 years. This girl loves anime and she’s the one to blame my folly over anime today.
The model of the group is Ella. This fair-skinned girl is a mother of a 4 year old boy. But she’s still the gorgeous girl I know. She’s super pretty and sexy… and this girl is my constant textmate. I just love this sweet goddess. We have so much in common. We both love clothes, make up and perfumes. She's not just pretty, she's also good at heart. No matter what happen, this girl can always come to me. She's definitely one of a kind.
Now, let’s meet the guys.
The gang calls this guy ‘piggy’ and he’s my boyfriend. He was one of my enemies before because he annoys me and all. I hate him because he’s a player. He has 3 girlfriends at the same time. He’s nothing to hide on me cos I knew him from skin to bone. I met this guy so many years ago and I became the princess of their group If you’re someone in the group, you can say – he’s the guy who’sthere when you needed someone to listen.
Manong asI call him is the gay-ish guy in the group. When he was hired as an IT staff 3 years ago, in a snap, he became my instant guy friend. I can say, he’s a jolly-go-lucky kind of guy who manages to keep 2 separate groups of friends. When he’s out for different sets of party, he’s like superman – cos he’s making it sure to be present in wherever the other party is.
I think I wrote more than expected, yet I still have a huge list of people to talk about. However, my blogreaders complain about the length of my entries, so I have to cut this up now before I get carried away… again.
I love you all!
