Work has been great in the sense that I have been kept busy, pretty much engaged but still able to attain the much valued "work life balance". This is one of the reasons why I haven't been blogging lately. And the rest, well... let's just say I'm living life!
Two major events this February that happened in the past weeks have been:
Valentines Day
One of the most dreaded day.
But if finally came with the hope that it wouldn't be the same as last year or the year before! Surprisingly, the night before I received some flowers from Joel, my cube mate. They were callalily flowers. The kind of flowers I liked. He gave them to 7 girls in the office including myself. He has been such a great cubie and I really appreciate all his help and time when I needed someone to chat with. I told him, he's future girlfriend (since he's still single) would probably be very pampered and lucky to have him as a boyfriend. Hope guys could be as thoughtful as him. I also received chocolates from Mommy Wheng (she's my confidante in terms of work and the pet peeves) and lastly Cadbury chocolate from hmmm...SECRET!
Happy thought! I finally realized how great the feeling is if you won't expect and it all just comes as a surprise. At the end of the busy and tiring day, I went home to my family happy and contented. I just wish we could've had more time to hang out that day. Of course it would just be dinner. But then again, any time spent with him is important to me.
BORACAY!!!
The following day we were off to Boracay. Took a flight from Cebu to Kalibo, Aklan! Rode the coaster from Kalibo to Caticlan and finally a pump boat ride from Caticlan to Boracay. Another never-have-thought-I-could-be-here moment. A dream come true. The sand was so fine and the company I was with - maia, ipay, rhea, edu, jon, bing, andy, canence, sly and che - were great bunch! All the time I was there, I couldn't help but think how I wish someday I could bring my family here to enjoy the beach. It was an island with a long stretch beach and lotsa people in beach shorts and bikinis. More on this on the next blog!The week after I'm back to being a rubber band. There were times I was to break but then I bounced back to being a loop. I am elastic and durable! I should get through whatever turmoil and stretching there could ever be...
