Winds Of Change??

   Now I can truly say that I have my work cut out for me these coming days. Decisions are always hard to make, especially if it can make a significant change on your life as you know it.

   These past days and weeks were kind of a roller-coaster ride for me. May mga masasaya, malulungkot, at masasakit sa ulo na kaganapan na dumaan. Unahin muna natin ang masasaya. I've had a late dinner with close friends and officemates two Saturdays ago for it was the birthday celebration of one of them; numerous adventures and misadventures with my DotA friends at work for one whole week or so (straight after duty kahit wala na tulugan at laro magdamagan..); and played badminton and watched movies with them after quite a while (something that we haven't done for months).

   But the funny part of all of these is that all of them happened for a reason and even gave birth to other problems on my part. The said dinner gave me an opportunity to practice my already hibernating English skills at the office kasi ako, together with two other friends / officemates, were required to submit a report for coming to work late that night. Ang nakakatawa lang na medyo nakakainis doon sa nangyari e marami naman ang gumagawa nun sa amin noon pa pero hindi naman napaparusahan but because of some "mole" within the office e kami ang napagtripan na gumawa ng report. Yes I know may kasalanan din naman kami pero as if we've done the said infraction each and everytime? Ewan ko nga ba, siguro nagkalat nga lang talaga ang mga a**ho**s sa office namin, mga kapamilya ng tren (choo-choo in other words).

   Meanwhile, the events other than the first one I mentioned happened mainly because one of our officemates was already leaving the company in haste (actually, to this day e nasa ibang bansa na nga siya, though hindi pa siya officially resigned sa amin sa office, secret na malufet lang iyon). It was kind of "catching up" for him since aalis na nga siya so soon. Gusto lang daw niya kami makasama uli sa mga kakulitan before he moved out for good. But guess what again? That officemate of ours happened to be my pad-mate as well! Dalawa na nga lang kami naiwan dito sa apartment unit namin (from the original four) to bear all the bills and rent tapos bigla pa siya umalis? Now what am I gonna do with a 2flr-2bedroom-1bathroom unit all alone? We've tried to look for other people na sumama sa amin dito noon pa para to help ease the burden with the expenses but to no avail. Now I have no choice but to look for another place for me and I only have a month to do it. Kaya naman siya kung sa kaya, kaso moving out and going to a new place isn't really that easy. Kailangan din ng matindi-tinding logistics. After all, nasanay na ako dito since we've been on this unit for a year and a half already. But I guess I have no other choice, unless kaya ko nang hindi kumain ng isang buong buwan para ibayad ko na lang sa bills and rent ang sahod ko. Haha!

   Ngayon pa lang nakikita ko na na this coming month of August would be stressful for me. From looking for a new place to live, to cleaning up all the mess here at the pad all alone, to defending my name at the office, name it. I know I have my work cut out for me. Good luck na lang sa akin. Sana matino pa ako by September. Hahaha!
