hmmm…

spent the weekend in the Summer Capital of the Philippines, Baguio City!!

we went there to experience panagbenga, a.k.a. flower festival. ang saya. i went undertime nung friday shift, then we met up at my office. our bus trip was at 6am, and 5:55am we arrived at victory liner bus terminal at cubao. the bus trip was half a day long, but i didn’t mind. the view was fantastic along the way. we got to baguio around 1pm, with no place to stay. akalain mo yun. buti na lang there are people there (i dont know, tour guides would suit them best i guess) that would go around the city with you to find a place to stay for only 5o bucks. luckily we didnt have to search long, we found a place after around 20 minutes of searching ala mary and joseph (minus the bun in the oven, of course.) it was called king’s court, and the rate was 1,500 pesos per day. ang mahal, panagbenga kasi. regular rate would have been 800 ata. imagine.

 anyway. so yun. when we got to the room, we rested a little, tas nagpunta na kami kagad ng victory liner bus terminal para bumili ng ticket pauwi (just to make sure na hindi namen magagastos yung pera pambili for other niceties) then went to SM Baguio to have lunch at KFC. hahahaha, nasa baguio na’t lahat, SM at KFC pa din!

***im gonna stop right here kasi uuwi na ko. this is an after shift activity that im doing and its taking its toll on my eyelids. hehe. ndi ko na keri, baka mag commute ako nakapikit. ***

 another day of training is done. little by little it’s finally sinking in… i am going to do sales. or rather, help agents make the sale. akalain mo yun. i still have sooo much to learn though. i actually like it… a new challenge… something entirely different out of the usual tech support stuff. and its gonna take another learning curve for god knows how long. yeeh.

 on an entirely different note, it’s amazing how relationships start. and im not just talking about the usual romantic, boyfriend-girlfriend, head-over-heels type. this also goes for strangers becoming friends. ang galing diba? aaand it almost always starts with a smile. or a… uhm… lifting of the eyebrows!Ü i just thought of this while taking a bath before work. apparently that’s the only time i have to think of such things. haha. wala lang. naisip ko lang kasi, more than half of the reason why i cant leave my present job is because of the friends i’ve made here. sure, the compensation is great and the benefits and all that, but i daresay i’ve also made relationships to last a lifetime. with my bosses, my teammates, my colleagues. it’s like a family outside of my own. and im happy about it.

 granted that you’re already happily involved with someone… do you ever come to a point that you ask yourself

“what if?” or “sayang, pahulihin ka naman eh”

does it make you a bad girlfriend/boyfriend if you think of something like that? does that count as cheating already? or does it only become cheating when you act on it? if that’s the case, does that mean you are allowed to fantasize about that person and think of as many “what if” questions as you want granted that you dont do anything about it?

or am i just overthinking again?

wow. one weekend has passed and i got 5 comments from my girlfriends. hehe. good to know we’ll always be in touch. warm fuzzy feeling. hehehehe.

 anyway, what a weekend it was.
