It worked! Hahaha!

Last Week, Ashamed

Don't get me wrong there. "Last week" and "ashamed" are different stories.

Well, this is my last week here in the company. Next week will be the start of my jobless journey (but the beginning of being a full-time mom..hehehe). But what the heck! This is only my last week in the company, not my last week being alive. Hehehe. So why not enjoy my last moments here in Cebu.

Second thing, I watched "Rated K" by Korina Sanchez last night. The topic was about being ashamed. Well, there was one topic about obesity. They were as if in a rally or something, shouting: "Bakit ako mahihiya?" (Why should I be ashamed?) Well, that kept me thinking..^_^

Globe, Noypi!

I almost forgot what to blog about today. It's a good thing I happen to pass by the Globe Telecom building here in IT Park, on my way back to the office.







First off, Globe's new logo.


Have you seen the so-called news broadcasts of ABS-CBN since Saturday? Mysterious signs were appearing all over the Philippines. Last night was the unmasking of the reason why those "signs" were created. At first, I thought it was the new station ID of ABS-CBN. But then again, at the end of the presentation, it was after all, the launching of Globe's new logo. I'd say, it's looks better than the previous one. I just hope the services also get better. hehehe. But with the presentation of Globe's services as a whole, two words can describe it -- "Simple" yet "Amazing".

Second stop is the TV show entitle "Noypi! Ikaw ba 'to?" with host, Gabe Mercado. This is the reason why I stayed up very late last night, and now, I'm feeling a little dizzy. hehehe.

Anyway, last night's the first episode of their month-long anniversary celebration. The show featured Nikki (of Going Bulilit) as a streetchild, Yayo and William Martinez as couples who's living depends on plastics and boxes, and Joross as a person with skin disease.

I was really touched to see that inspite of growing crimes here in the Philippines, there are still good Samaritans who are willing to help those who need. (I salute them!) But there are just some people who have no heart at all, and that immediately judge other people by the way they look. *sigh But at least, there are still good people, right? And it's a reason to live harmoniously. (Charr!)

Leaving

As everybody knows, I'm leaving, and just counting the days. It's sad to let go of something that made me happy for a period of time, and helped me a lot to grow. But, that's life.

Anyway, what made this flight amazingly happy is the statement my mentor gave me, infront of the Verifications Team. In my resignation, I stated that I will be moving back to my hometown, Kidapz. But I think she forgot. hehehe

She told me, it's hard to let me go (I guess with my more than a year's experience, I became valuable...hehehe). And what's funny is that she proposed that I can do part-time job with NCR. She kept on talking - that she's also doing part-time job with the company, and that it is also feasible. Not until she stopped that I explained everything to her. I told her: "Sue, I'm leaving Cebu for good." And we were all laughing.

Off the record, I know I'm gonna miss my job, as well as my officemates.
