Battling Caloy, a bad tasting lengua, a sinking ship and 2 boxes of pizza!

Weekends should be spent as a break from a whole week's hard work. You're supposed to just stay at home, chill, relax, unwind, bond with your family. Not for me.

Two straight weeks. Two weekends. Two straight saturday OTs. One tiring Sunday outing. One stormy visit to a wedding supplier.

Back to last week. Saturday. OT. Deployment support. 18 hrs of expected standby time. 7:30 am - 1:00 am. And how busy were we then? 5 episodes of Smallville. Hundreds of web pages. A 2hour lunch. 0 hours spent for work. Now that's what i call an ideal weekend over time.. hehehe... 10.75 hours of total OT time, for totally zero work done.

Sunday. Outing. Swimming. A long walk. My fiancee's mom's birthday. An AM of swimming. An afternoon of strolling (errr... walking). A long trip to Dasmarinas. A long walk in Picnic Grove in Tagaytay. And an even longer ride home. Good thing it didn't take me long to fall asleep. I was... wasted...

Saturday again. OT. This time, there's a lot of work. 11 hours. And i still didn't finish my OT work. Medyo nakakasakit sa loob na pumasok kse i have to wake up early on the first day of the year that i'll actually enjoy sleeping and waking up. It was cold, and its raining, i mean storming, which means i won't have to wake up sweating. For the first time this year, i didn't have to make my electric fan work overtime. Too bad, i didn't enjoy that moment a bit. I was on my way to the office even before the sun was up. (The sun never did went up. Caloy didn't let her. :D)

Sunday. Scheduled meeting with a wedding supplier. Weather's still a bit windy. And i still have to wake up early. I attended mass in San Agustin Church in Intramuros Manila. At 8am. And i'm from Cavite. The scheduled meeting was for a food tasting. To finalize our menu for the wedding reception. Good thing there were several choices for the menu, because that Lengua dish really tasted aweful (at least for me). The afternoon, my fiancee and i, watched a movie. That movie about the sinking ship. No not titanic. The other one, the lord of the seas, Poseidon. Then after the movie we called it a day. We took home(my finacee's house) 2 boxes of pizza from that 'hut' that makes pizzas. Cheesy volcano meat lovers and a free palm card pepperoni pizza. I was back home at 8pm. Exhausted. Again.

Thinking of the OT pay, the sun burn i got from swimming, the quality time with my fiancee during that walk in Tagaytay, the movie, the pizza, those two weekends weren't that bad after all. I'm looking forward this next weekend, still wishing for more hours of sleep... But for now, i'm off to work.

lazy day at work

hay naku... nakakatamad... it's raining outside... it's the perfect time to just stay at home, watch tv, and just waste the day lying on my bed... kaya lang, eto, kailangan pumasok, kahit walang masyadong ginagawa...

haaaayyyy... and it's just 11:30 in the morning... it's still a long day... :sigh:

the championship round

We, the orange E-racing team are delighted to have squeezed out of the semis of our league. we won the deciding match last night. we had all the luck we needed. thought the game was a bit controversial, our desire to win still prevailed. so now, we elevated ourselves, again, to the best of 3 championship round. as of writing this, i still don't know who won the other game last night. the winner of that game will be our opponent in the finals.

kudos to the our team for grabbing a seat in the finals of our basketball tournament! May the force be with us all!!

a side note: i got six points last night, all from the 3 point arc. cheers to me, as they are the only three point attempts i tried all season, and i made them both!

win or go home

it's win or go home for us tonight... winner tonight will advance to the finals, loser will settle for third or fourth place... our twice to beat advantage has been wiped out... this will be a tough match... this will be emotional... this will prove who deserves the championship better... hopefully we win this one... we have to give it our best... no room for errors, no place for mistakes... its a must win...

i wish our team the best

to the Orange E-racing basketball team! good luck! and may we have all the powers needed to bag this one..

May the force be with us!!!

Championship round, HERE WE COME!!!
