I realized that I dwelt at my comfort zone for a lengthy time. Thus after much thought, I decided to journey life in another approach. I had to let go of something dear to me in exchange of direction and excitement or rather uncertainty. I guess it paid off.
October was an action-packed month. Various events occurred. I met knew people, strengthened bonds and said farewell to a couple. It all started with the send-off of two of my colleagues.
For my superior:
I was not really that close to her since I was only under her for about a month. In addition, I did not converse with her prior to that. If you do not mind me, I would not mind you as well. Therefore, the only occasion I think I would talk to someone is that if I need some assistance or something like that. Yeah, I am a snob. Rather… I was a snob.
During her send off, which we were forced to attend too, was when I kinda let loose. I interacted with my teammates --- gave high-fives, cheers, etc. Everyone had a blast. Thanks to the influence of training up to 10pm and a dash of alcohol for some. :)
For my fellow bootcamper:
Read the entries of my fellow bootcampers nalang…

We also had a Pre Halloween party / continuation of the send off. This time more people attended and since the theme was Halloween, most of us were in costumes. Cute! Fun!
Then there was the thing a Diamond Hotel. I did not know what to expect but I could say I had a good time… especially after the whole event when everyone started to dance. Haha. I know…such kids.
Guess October was really meant to be for Octoberfeast! Despite all the so-called stress work brings, at least I have people to make work-life --- life in general bearable.
Hah, was this the goal of 10.27?

Ang Tamaditis
... Matanghalian na dumating para sa trabaho
... Tininginan ang e-meyl
... Lumahok sa timpalak para sa 10.27
... Nagkunwaring nagtrabaho
... Nakatulog habang nag-antay mag-anyaya mag-tanghalian
... Lumamon
... Nanood ng mga palabas sa kapamilya
... Nalungkot dahil hindi napanalunan ang 1M
... Na-LSS sa boom taratat boom taratat boom boom boom
... Bumalik sa trabaho
... Subok na inaliw ang sarili
... Pumuna sa mga ginawa ng mga nilalang sa paligid
... Nag-imbita mag yosi
... Kumain ng Chessy Mamon
... Mukhang tanga ngayon habang sinusulat ito

On SAP FICO Training
I attended my last SAP FICO training. I somewhat felt glum because that meant --- goodbye free meals! We had KFC for our farewell meal and I opted for the 2 piece chicken over the Zinger --- an obvious choice for me.
On a sincere note, the 2 week course was pleasurable even if initially I had doubts if I would attend based on three points:
- there were only around 10 trainees and 8 were like big bosses
- it would eat my working hours
- I do not have a laptop which was a significant requirement
Remarkably, I actually enjoyed training not only because of the free food. It gave me a better picture of accounting for a non accountant such as myself. In addition business and functional concepts were tackled which are informative for my current module and hopefully something I can apply later on.
Good thing, it turned out that the attendees were not the same people listed. Instead of big bosses, the attendees came from ONE project. At least I was stuck with a group composed of groovy people rather than serious looking people. Promise they were a bunch of hyper people who has huge appetites. In addition, I also gained new acquaintances.

Goodbye
Goodbye B. You have been a significant part of me ever since I was a child. B, I always looked forward to our sessions. I enjoyed every momment spent with you, the good as well as the bad. Those were learning experiences for me. I would not be the person that I am right now if you were not in my life.
However I do not know what I am undergoing as of this momment and that I am willing to let go of you. Things change as well as priorities. I do not think that it is fair if I am not willing to commit myself to you like how things were before. So I guess, now is the time to say goodbye to you, B. Until we meet again.

From this:
It was a fundraiser event to help out Eug3n3 T3j3da, a basketball player who suffered a freak accident last Mother's day. I watched the game and saw what happend. As a player, it frigthened me cause it really never occured to me that basketball can be that dangerous. It was... for a lack of a better word... shocking.
I felt for him for whatever therapy, rehabilataion and such he has to undergo. I did not imagine that would be able to help out his guy. The sister and boyfriend of a friend of mine asked us to lend a helping hand for the said event. As a basketball affecianado, I was game.
It was tiring and at the same time fun. I was assigned to usher people in the VIP section. My task was simple, I had to direct people to their seats. And for that, I got to watch the game, see celebs, eat free food, etc. Imagine, I was beside C!ndy Kurl3t0! Haha! J-logs.
Result:
(L-R) R0b J0hns0n, Jam3s Yap, Al3x C0mpt0n and Marc P!ingr!s
Haha. Such an opportunista!
