San Miguel was my favorite PBA (Philippine Basketball Association) team back when I was a child because of Samboy Lim aka Skywalker. When he quit playing in PBA, I lost interest and basketball became the #1 cause of fights between me and my brother Ivan. We fought over the remote control whenever he wanted to […]

Green Birthday
It’s Yen’s birthday today but since it’s a holiday, we decided to plan her surprise for Thursday. The night before that, we blew up balloons and condoms and arranged it in her area, and when she arrived the next morning she was pleasantly surprised. For lunch, we bought some food in Chowking and a chocolate […]
30 Bottles of Beer on the Wall
Eversince my birthday roses stint, people have been pressured to come up with flashy gimiks for other people’s birthdays. That was why on our band 2 boss Joel’s 30th birthday, they came up with the idea of giving him 30 beers, 1 each to be given by a person or group who interacted with him. Our group […]

Search for Alluring Papa
Our team leader Carie had her birthday and as the official birthday gimik planner, I rose to the occasion and came up with an idea to rival what happened on my birthday — a searcher-searchee contest! Actually, I stole the idea from my roommate – they had done the same for her officemate’s birthday. We called it […]
Simply the Best!
Once a year, the three legal entities (oops…sorry for the work jargon) of P&G Philippines come together with the retirees to celebrate and have friendly competition with each other. For this year this happened yesterday at the NBC tent in the fort. While I usually just sit back, relax, and enjoy the shows, this year I […]
The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
I was in National Bookstore last Saturday and I was that they were having a sale so I went in and bought two books I’ve always wanted at 20% off — 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and The Secret. The latter was listed in last month’s cosmo must-read list, so this was the first […]
Bye, Despedidans!
In P&G it is the custom to change roles after every 2 years or so to prevent employees from getting bored being stuck in the same role forever, and also to provide opportunities for growth. And so we bid adieu to 6 lovely ladies (Leah, Kris, Mich, Rhea, Toni & Melai) last September 13 in […]
