A few months ago, Petron unveiled two floors of restaurants for the eating pleasure of Buendia-based employees. After trying Teriyaki Boy’s Japanese dishes, Ineng’s barbeques, and Pancake House’s breakfast meals, we set our sights on the newest addition, Singkit New York Chinese Takeout Food. We had some Hoisin chicken, sweet & sour fish, lechon kawali […]
Rhyza
When Liza was a new hire in P&G, and we welcomed her to our lunches, she did not tell us she was pregnant until two months later. She said that she kept it a secret because some companies don’t regularize pregnant employees, which I think is a ridiculous practice. Thankfully, P&G is not like them. […]
Gay’s Day
Gay, who turned 24 last June 10, is the oldest girl in our house and yet she is our innocent wide-eyed little child. She is also our lanlan queen and official tagatilok sa balay. Lanlan is a Bisaya word which means eating something in pure form…like salt, for instance, which she did once. Tagatilok is […]
My Johari Window
It always interests me to know what people think about me. Not that I need to win their approval or anything, I just need a self confidence boost every now and then. The Johari Window provides just that. Here are my results. Arena (known to self and others) cheerful, confident, independent, witty Blind Spot (known […]
Pizza for Jerome
Jerome turns 23 today. To break the tradition, the gang decided to surprise him. They got the lobby guard to call him and tell him that he had a visitor at the 10th floor to get him to come down. But instead of a “girl” visitor, what awaited him was Pizza Hut, chocolates and Pepsi […]
My Big Little Brother
Exactly 22 years ago, my mom had her second c-section and delivered a bouncing baby boy into the world, much to her 1-year-and-9-month-old daughter’s chagrin. From the very beginning I regarded my baby brother with much suspicion, as can be evidenced by a picture he has in his album. In the picture, my dad (who […]
Visiting Camp Crame
Whenever I need to go somewhere I’d never been to and I didn’t know how to get there, there’s always one person to call — our tatay sa bahay, Nald. So last night, right before going to PNP Camp Crame, I rang him up and he gave me a cheaper and faster option to my first […]
X-Men III: The Last Stand {Movie Review}
In X-Men: The Last Stand, the final chapter in the X-Men motion picture trilogy, a “cure” for mutancy threatens to alter the course of history. For the first time, mutants have a choice: retain their uniqueness, though it isolates and alienates them, or give up their powers and become human. The opposing viewpoints of mutant […]
Wedding Bells for Kris and Ipe
Yesterday I attended the wedding of my teammate Kris to her boyfriend..err…now husband, Ipe. Cute pair, Kris and Ipe, same names as the now defunct celebrity love team. The wedding was held in San Agustin Church in Intramuros, chosen by the couple for its historical significance. Apparently, when it comes to choosing a church to […]
Fun in Fontana
For this year’s teambuilding, our company headed to Fontana Leisure Park in Clark Field, Pampanga yesterday. Doms drove us over there in his car, and we got there just in time for the morning program. There was a work-related presentation, then the traditional new hires presentation, then some games. After the morning program, our team […]
