Recap of 2011

The highlights of my 2011:

Ø  I worked for MSCI

Ø  I work for First Philippine Electric Corporation

Ø  I became a regularized employee of First Philippine Electric Corporation

Ø  I went to Singapore with Paulo and friends

Ø  We bought a new house in Las Pinas

Ø  I am now driving

Why I hate 2011:

Ø  The house that we bought is unfinished

Ø  The house that we bought is far from where I work and where I usually hang-out

Ø  I can have a car but my salary is not big enough to maintain one

Ø  Even if my salary got bigger, my net pay is not that big because of taxes

Ø  2011 was a tough year

In short, the only good thing about 2011 is me being regularized and going to Singapore. 

(PF) Prodigal Friends

I think everyone has a clear grasp of what a prodigal friend is. She can be the “We’re friends but I won’t keep in touch”, or he’s the “I’m so in love right now I’ll be gone until the honeymoon stage is over”, or “You don’t agree with me I won’t show up anymore”.

My friends know that I am whimsical and sort of crazy. I am impulsive and sometimes being impulsive gets me in to trouble. Last night, as a spur of the moment thing, I called PF1. I wanted to do this for a long time. I wanted to talk to him and ask why he did what he did. I wanted to tell him how stupid he was, that you don’t just abandon your friends like that. Finally, I was able to tell him everything I wanted to tell him.

I feel better. I am happy. I don’t need explanations anymore. Fact of the matter is that he went there even if he knows that he will be sort of undergoing an interrogation means that he had the courage to face us. That he wants to be friends again.
