I'm Back!

Whew! It's been a while since my last post. I've been busy with training for Trend Micro and whoa! It was really exhausting.. those weekly tests and projects.. It's like one whole semester in Ateneo. The final project which me and my groupmates did for just 5 days, was a resource management system! Anyway, the experience was fun, and I'm sure it will be very useful.. I've had several bad experiences.. and good ones.. but it's all over now. I officially started as a Trend Micro employee last Monday. And I was assigned to one challenging project! :)

Last Saturday, we brought Bary to the Missionary Training Center and I remembered vividly the day we brought Oliver there. I miss him terribly! One year and three months to go.. I'll be seeing him again. Afterwards, I went to the farm with Sam, Ate Chips and Pam. I enjoyed it very much. Naturally, since I didn't have any real "break" after graduation. We did so many things. We tried feeding the pigs, collected kamote, played scrabble, did some shooting with dad's airgun and just went around the place. It was very relaxing. Malas, the camera memory card had to be formatted. Grr.. all our pictures were gone! Sam and I didn't feel the least bit uncomfortable since there was no one around to tease the two of us. I miss our friendship! Since he came back from his mission, we never had the chance to talk to each other since everyone's eyes were on us whenever our paths cross. Anyway, Sam is still that same old guy I knew when were a little younger. Although he's grown more mature, and you wouldn't doubt his spiritual growth, he can still be funny when he's in the mood. Hehe.. we've been abusing Smart's umlimited text promo since last week, so we've become more comfortable talking to each other in person. So to those who've been eyeing the two of us since April, you know who you are (though I doubt if you'll be passing by my blog) Sam and I are good friends, so stop, people! Note: I am not mad. Hehe... Our next stop: UPLB. We'll be setting up Ruth's computer in her dorm, and Sam will be helping me! Yey, thanks to him! On Monday, we will bring Ruth to her dorm in UPLB. She'll be staying there for 6 years. Of course, during Summer and Christmas break, she will be back with us in the city again. Only child na lang ako sa Monday. Hehe.. my only brother and my only sister are away from home.. How time passes by! Wala ng katao-tao sa bahay! Our maid left, and my lola will be staying with my tito in Alabang. My mom and dad are always in Antipolo to take care of our business. Ay meron pa pala, our 8 dogs will be guarding our house. Hehe..

Two weeks ago, I had the opportunity to be with the Zamboanga Ensign Chorus. They are a group of professional performers who happened to be in Manila for their Temple Trip. They are performing for free as a form of service to the Church. They performed Les Miserables and My Servant Joseph, which are both very emotional plays. Nakakaiyak talaga! I admire them for their dedication in their work and their unity in the group. I enjoyed their company very much. For one whole week, they stayed at our house (there were about 30 of them) 'coz some of them are my dad's cousin and they asked if they could stay with our family. They had lots of stories about Oliver since his first assignment was in Zamboanga.

Next Saturday, I'm off to UPLB. Hehe.. Excited na ako! I'll post pictures next time. :)
