updates

i'm really sorry for not having updated in the longest time... things have been a little crazy lately. i guess the numero uno reason for the silent mode is our account's blocking off ALL non work related websites. that included personal mail, friendster and my dear blogger.com.
let's start where i last left off...ate evs' barfday. she wasn't here in makati on her actual birthday but when she came back we had dinner and she treated me to "my sassy girl". i luuuurrrrve that movie. cutesie but somehow it struck me. evs kept on teasing me about it, she said she could see so much of my bossy, brutal, and selfish ways with khryss and how it was always ok with him to be made into an alila by pwincess dayday.

at work, lainey and i have been accepted to the e-rep recruitment VIP. we render 2 hours work after our regular sched. it was fun at first processing all these piles of resumes and applications. i had a lot of fun making "lait" or "pula". agad na ga ang mga nag sa-submit. now i'm getting kinda bored, but it has been a good experience.

i had a very rude awakening on my birthday. ate evs was robbed on the 16th. she as waiting for a bus to get to work in the wee hours of the morning when a guy suddenly put an arm around her and asked her to hand over her bag. she promptly refused when five more men surrounded her and threatened to stab her.
tevs, being the brave soul that she is would not give in, the robbers having gotten impatient just grabbed her things and ran off. fortunately, some tanod or police came along and were able to catch five of the guys and retrieve her stuff except for her cellphone. she recounted her ordeal at some police station, at ang lola mo dinemanda ang mga ng holdup sa kanya!
the event was very surreal for me and much like a slap on the face. it suddenly hit me that we were indeed now OUT in the real world where people could harm us. life is now more complicated than which top to buy or which skirt went with which shoes. now i also have to worry about being mugged, raped or stabbed to death in a dark corner of osmeƱa hiway by some random dooby smoker!?!
