Pork Pie

I am excited for next month. Hopefully, we would be able to finally proceed with our plan to have our first ever session [big grin].  The last time we were together we talked about the agenda and the assignments of each of us.  We also discussed the "equipment" that we need.  I am trying to convince them to buy some of the units we need online so we would be able to save a few bucks.  Like for example we can save on pork pie drums if we buy it online.  Have seen several online sale for instruments like pork pie drums.  Hopefully my friends would understand the savings that we can get from this approach.  There is another reason why I am excited for June.  Looking forward to this out-of-town trip with my colleagues.  Can't share the details yet, but I will post photos of our trip.  Just wait and see [big grin].

Good Night

It is time to sleep now
I will close my eyes
And try to fall asleep
I will try to rest
It was a long day finally ending
Not sure what is going to happen
Tomorrow morning, I hope I will wake up
Start a new day.  A new beginning.

Black Saturday

Spent the whole day at our store working on a few things that I have been putting off since last week [big grin]. But I am happy that I am done with it. I only one thing left to complete, but I have to wait until Monday to complete the report.  I would say that this is a productive day for me.  I was also able to update my blogs.  And later today, I will be seeing my friends and have some good time tonight [big grin].  Who would have thought that I would be able to do a lot of things today.  Earlier I was so occupied by the candy crush game in my phone.  I was also trying to practice my guitar skills while I was watching music videos of Taylor Swift.  It has always been my dream to be able to play musical instruments like a pro.  Unfortunately, my father bought me a banduria instead of a piano, not even a keyboard or a yamaha p95 at wwbw perhaps? [dreamy] [big grin].  And when I was growing up, I would borrow my brother's guitar, which was so big that my arms is not enough to reach the strings and strum it well.  Oh well, those were the days.  I am still thinking of enrolling myself to music school someday, and maybe live my dreams of becoming a singer/composer [wink, wink].

Congratulations Graduates!

 Sharing here photos from my nephew's high school graduation.  Jude is my cousin's first born.  Unfortunately my cousin was not able to attend his graduation ceremony.  But she came home from Denver to fetch my nephew.  they went back to Denver a few days after his graduation.  It would be long before we can see each other again (sad).  After his graduation, we had dinner with my other cousin.  We were supposed to eat in a Japanese restaurant (I forgot the name) but the queue was really long so we decided to pick another place.

I got two more nephews who graduated this month.  One graduated from nursery and the other one from high school too, same as Jude.  All the three graduates received medals for the excellent performance they have shown in academics and co-curricular activities.

Congratulations!

Tatuaje Cigars

Today is the 3rd day of the long weekend.  I hope you guys are having a meaningful holy week and a well-spent long-weekend vacation.  Me?  I am trying to make the most out of it, and find some "meaning" too [wink].  Yesterday, I did some good deed as an act of giving thanks to our dear Savior for all the blessings we received, especially the blessings our store's been receiving for the last couple of years.  And I am going to continue doing this good deed in the coming years.  Today I got some jobs to do.  I need to take advantage of this free time away from the office to do other things/other jobs [big grin] and also to have fun a little.  There are things that I was not able to do lately because of my busy schedule.  One is doing nothing [lol].  Anyway, it was really my plan to update my blogs this long weekend; and do some research work on the net.  I came across this site that offers tatuaje cigars and it made me remember my grand father.  He always asked me to get his cigar from this small box full of it.  He always smoke outside the house because my Aunt gets mad at him if he does it inside.  And when finally there are cigar ashes, he would tell me to pullout white hairs from his eye brows.  I would put the ashes on his brows and start pulling the white hair.  Sounds weird? It is really weird.

Summer Fun

Sharing here some photos from our company's summer outing.  We went to Estrellas de Mendoza in Batangas City.  It was a really nice place.  And we had fun compared with our outing last year.  We stayed in the resort over night.


Here is the view of the place from our room.

 

 There are 4 employees sharing a room.  My teammates shared one room, which I think is a logical way to group employees.  It is better to share a room with someone you know or you are close with.  This will make it more comfortable to everyone.


We arrived at the resort before lunch time.  After we settled in we had our lunch at the top floor of the hotel.  The hotel's elevator is made with glass.  You can see the pool and the beach as it climbs to the top floor.  Unfortunately I was not able to take photos of the hotel's facade.


The games started at around 2pm.  We played by the beach.  But before we went there, we gathered at the pent house for a short orientation on rules of the games.  I can say that most of my colleagues enjoyed the games.  Though it was really a sunny afternoon and we had to play away from the tents, which were actually set up for the evening program - eating, drinking and a lot of singing [wink, wink].


 In the morning we had a buffet breakfast.  There are all sorts of breakfast available to choose from - they got friend rice, eggs, fried dried fish and veggies.  There are breads and pancakes too.  Cereals and fruits.  For drinks, you may choose from coffee and juices.
