random notions from my low-batt mind

the beginning of goodbye

am back at the office. when our "lipat-bahay" looking jeepney (filled to the brim with water dispensers boxes of stuff, two lcd projectors, three laptops, a printer and officemates) pulled up at the office gate, friend M said "we're home!"

yes it has come to that.

i sat in front of my pc, and remembered i had shorts and a tee shirt tucked somewhere around these papers, and i thought, "yehey, i can get more comfortable!"

YES, IT HAS COME TO THAT.

this office is now home, without conscious permission.

it hasn't been bad, just tiring :). everything's also been mildly successful if i may be allowed to say. some things fall thru the cracks, some stuff are mildly embarassing, but largely, everyone has come together and pulled thru. and these are the things that have always mattered to me from the start, at this office of ours.

for the last 8 something something something years.

the togetherness and the people ;). (and the internet!)

the togetherness under tyranny and tears, in mischief and mayhem, the food, the pa-gandahan, pa-cute-an, the things that we learn, the stuff that we laugh about.

[capricorn g and capricorn me were sitting in a corner whispering about the boss being weepy, and getting weepy ourselves,... ahhh capricorns]

[old pal e hung out at the congress, making all sorts of sarcastic remarks such as we might get charged extra by the caterer for one of the guests appeared to be wearing one of the table-cloths.... hahahaha]

that's what made me stay for more more more more :) (above and beyond the call of duty, i must now move on, for i believe, there is no more use for me where i am now :D ... i am already weary of the actual work assigned to me hehehehe).

two more days, and i am leaving. ooooh, things will never be the same again :)


moving on

hardly slept today. woke up at 8:15 from my 6:20 am bedtime just in the nick of time to shower and head out the door. but it was quite fun. i can fend off tiredness and sleepiness for as long as i don't have to present anything ;). i'll just run around for you.

but then again
J friend: hi migs
J: how was the opening?
v: hindi ako tinetext ng jowa ko

hehehe!
[the space to be able to complain of such a matter. being put-out is a privilege one can enjoy, for as long as one doesn't take one's self too seriously] <--- "do you agree with me that a bracket feels differently from a parenthesis?"

after all, wasn't it also you who said, ay, amo ka na gali ya? indi ko ya sang amo na ya.

other aliw things
practically brought my entire filebox on everything relevant to the activity, to the activity, in various well-labeled folders. (no wonder i didn't sleep, i organized parts of myself :P).

also really enjoy seeing the camaraderie of staunch feminist and the "boys" under her command. goes to show all kinds can mix well too, under negotiated terms. like "b, where's my coffee??"

and h and em made a great exhibit! thanks h and em!

and also
carted home five pinangga shirts today, four for men!

seeing the men in my life soon, bringing along some pasalubong.
