my parents' anniv

it was my mom and my dad's anniversary last thursday and we celebrated it by having dinner at kaiseki. that day was a really good one for me because of everything that happened that week. my mom and i were fighting and fighting about petty things. i really hate this week. i just hope and wish that this following week... this following year... will be a better one for all of us. anyway, these are the pics from kaiseki...

anyway, thursday was the last working day of the year. bert was on leave but he came in at around lunchtime to file for leave. we met up in pasto and had lunch. that was also the time when rej texted him about the application to globe. hay. i just really wish that i could get in. but i'm really doubting myself. i feel so underqualified for that job. oh well. no point in stressing about that but hopefully, 2006 will be a more fruitful year for me in terms of career anyway.

we were allowed to leave at 2pm last thursday but since i had a meeting for classifieds. i went home at around 3:30. i really dreaded going home. i really didn't want to face my mom cause she has been a little high strung lately. luckily, when i got home she was asleep so i slept also in my room. this was actually one of those rare times in my life when i can actually sleep in the afternoon. usually, i'd arrive home at around 8 or 8:30 in the evening already.

hay hay.. everyday at work, its the same boring thing again and again... update funnies, populate yehey classifieds, test the admin. i truly wonder... when will i ever get work that would make me feel fulfilled and financially okay.

dina also left for the province that day. that was probably the reason why my mom was getting stressed. aside from everything that she has to do, she also has to take care of the household which i know isn't a very easy task.

weird thing... iggy also brought a kitten to the office last thursday. i wonder if i could also bring my pups? too bad maan was on leave, she would've loved seeing a kitten at the office.

also, last thursday was the last day of diane and charm. oh well. i know that i wasn't really THAT close to them but it's pretty saddening that they will leave. good luck to you guys.. hope to see you guys again soon.

december 30, 2005. it was a holiday so there was no work. we were planning to have the fitting for the gown for sherrill's wedding but then the store was closed so we're going to do it on monday after the celebration of mama's first death anniversary. sherrill and jay together with pablo and his wife came back to the house to look at the dogs. apparently, jay's also into dogs especially pitbulls.

we also went to watch the world pyro olympics. we weren't able to get inside the compounds really cause it was soo traffic and all the roads going there were blocked already. we were just able to watch it from roxas boulevard. it was great actually. next year, i'd really love it if i'd be able to watch all the countries that would join that event.

december 31, 2005. i woke up today with a splitting headache. mustve been because of last night's stressful episode. had to cook today for media noche. good thing what i cooked came out alright. really happy about that. i'm picking up my sister in awhile. she's going to spend new year's with us. hay hay.. this is turning out to be a stressful new year...
