The Best Days

Thursday morning. Had to wake up extra early to make it to a 7:30 am breakfast meeting at Mario's Kitchen. I didn't. But I'm glad I made it 5 minutes early.

It was the first big group meeting called for the organizers of the upcoming Children's Rosary Rally. The plan sounds good and I'm optimistic that coordination for this year will not be as stressful as last year's.

Evening. I got pretty hyped up when this really good new friend of mine called for a private choco fest! We're both big fans of chocolate and we can't wait to do it. Might as well call our rendezvous, "Chocoholics Anonymous." :p

I later got a message from a more senior colleague asking me if I can make it to an important breakfast meeting on the next day. So...

Friday morning. Dropped by the office first to properly inform my boss that I'm supposed to attend an 8 am meeting. I'm actually thankful that since my job requires a lot of field work, my boss trusts me enough to allow me to leave the office anytime. This is just one of the many things I enjoyed when I was still acquiring accounts for my old job. I get to go out and meet people of all sorts.

It started to rain hard when I got on a cab but the good thing was that it stopped when I reached my destination. I haven't been to High Street/Serendra for the longest time and I was surprised that so many establishments were already operational since those times I hung out a lot in the area.

I love my mornings good -- waking up early, saying a prayer, walking a bit and having good breakfast. Boy, I miss those times when my dad would ring the doorbell in my pad so we can have breakfast together in Katipunan. Or those times when we'd go to our favorite breakfast places when he drives me from home to my pad on early Mondays.

Again, I must say that I am really thankful that I get to sit down with the local CSR gurus and watch how they work. It's very humbling plus I feel so privileged about learning so much from them.

This is what's so good about being able to identify one's own passion. You can always live it out. Earlier this week, I got to have a restroom conversation with one of our company's lawyers; also one of the women I admire at work. Again, I thought that it's really such a small world. She happens to be friends with this woman who spoke in my course's career talks. I have always thought she had the job I wanted. My officemate told me that apparently, her friend was asking her to help her look for someone who'd replace her post in the Swedish Embassy just two Aprils ago. Boy! It could've been me! :p

Anyway, Saturday was something else. Loved the whole of it! Brought our GK kids to ACPACI's special screening of Repertory Philippines' Mulan at Onstage, Greenbelt 1. Brought Krissy with me and she seemed to have so much fun. This plus the fact that I've heard much of my favorite compliment -- Krissy and I having splitting images, made Saturday so great!






Today is Sunday and I am looking forward to more activities with my family.
