april 5-7, 2008. my choirmates decided that for this year, baguio is the place to go! i can't wait to go, not because it's baguio (not really keen on going there on a summer weekend, a long weekend at that), but more of the fact that i have not joined the choir in any trips/gimmicks for the longest time. especially when they would go out of town. last year i missed subic. i also missed overnight trips to my friend's resort. to think it is just in the neighboring city! oh well...
but this time it's different. to show my eagerness, i already paid for my accommodation last week! now there's no backing up. not that i was intending to, anyway. so, what to do while in baguio? why, get laid, of course! hahahaha! fat chance of that happening, what with my friends and i sharing a room and all. come to think of it, it could be possible. there are lots of tourists, so more chances of hooking up!
before i hear, "slut!", let me say that it is only half-meant. of course, spending time with my friends would be my utmost priority. the tourist spots, i can let go of that. since i was there last year with my balikbayan relatives, i have no need, no desire to visit the parks, go horseback riding, etc. i could probably do some shopping for some clothes (ukay-ukay is the way to go!), if my budget would allow me to do so. and of course, the market. ah yes, the market. fresh veggies, fruits, meat. heaps of excitement! and the usual pasalubong snacks. choco flakes, peanut brittle, and my utmost favorite, good shepherd ube jam! heaps of love for ube jam. =)
i already told my mom about our baguio trip. hopefully she realizes that i am trying to make her send me money for allowance. such a funny word, allowance. i havent received one in years. but i definitely wont complain when i start getting one now.
ha. fat chance of that happening.

how i cope with my recent breakup.
the things i do to help me get over someone.
i am swamped with work. literally. as in there are things i should've accomplished a couple of weeks back which are still on my "Things To Do" list.
i willingly submitted myself to be the head of one company event which involves all the companies in our country. think 1000 heads (not that head, you pervert). think less than a month of preparation. think of how you're responsible for publicity of the event. the facet of an event where you are least exposed to (since i'm always in production, whether in front or behind the scenes). think working with people whom you just met, with different work schedules, and with different personalities. you haven't been given time to know each other in a more personal level. who has time for that, given the task at hand? trust me, i'm super excited.
assessment. i have recently undergone an assessment to be confirmed to the next level. a climb up the corporate ladder, so to speak. it was a long and tedious process: prior to actually undergoing the panel assessment, you have to submit your own document detailing all proof points to show that you have manifested a certain level of competence. there are 9 competencies in all, and trust me, it is no easy task. you really need to be obssessive-compulsive: do not erase any emails which you think would be beneficial later on. take not of everythin, as in DOCUMENT everything.
anyway, enough of that. the point is, i'm beginning to feel lonely again. sigh...
