The Long Weekend Was So Short

You may call it the long weekend but it never was long enough. I mean, I'll know it's long enough when I really am able to relax and I start to miss my job. But if I still dread waking up early to sit in front of the computer and deal with the pressure and stress that comes with it, then it's not a long weekend at all. Well, at least for me.

Anyhow, I think I'd like to share this little thing I recorded around two weeks ago at the Chef's House. Usually, it's the customers who do the requesting. This is the first time that I heard the singer request the customer to do something. Haha!





UP Ibalon orgmates - Mayk, Peachy, and Samm - at Brent's
Thursday, my orgmates and I went out for a mini-reunion. Of course, the only orgmates I was able to meet were those who were based here in Legazpi. We did tell lots of stories and shared tons of our UP Ibalon experiences. And it was a fun night. We're planning on joining this year's Padunungan which is going to be held in BU on the 25th to the 27th of this month. And maybe we'd be having a reunion around Christmas. We're still thinking of where to hold the event. Oh it was really fun. We don't go out that often and I'm really happy their remembered me when they decided to go out and unwind.

UP Ibalon orgmates - Mayk, Maja, Mags, and Samm - at Brent'sLast Friday, the usual people from our department were not present at the bar. In fact, this time, those from the content writing department were there. Haha. That day also was Theon's birthday. I knew that he was alone in the house with his sister, Bem. So Leonel and I decided to go there. Bem told us that she'll be sleeping over at our house. Good thing we were at Theon's or else he would've been celebrating his birthday alone.

Sometime in near 10pm, I took out the cake, and he lit his own candle. It was one of those candles you use during brownouts so it was not actually placed on the cake itself. Just somewhere near the cake. And we clapped our hands silly and continued drinking. By the way, we drank Barcelona brandy. Tongue I know. It's just like most types of brandy though the difference is that it smells like Vanilla so much so that I felt nauseated and dizzy after a couple of shots.

The three of us planned on going swimming the day after Theon's birthday. I was at home waiting for them to text me. Leonel was the first one to text me. I told him to ask Theon if we would still be going ahead with our plans. He said that Theon was not replying. Later in the evening, when I texted Theon, he said that he was waiting for me to text him. So okay. It was a case of I'm-waiting-for-you-to-text-me-and-all-the-while-you-were-waiting-for-me-to-text-you. Haha. That kind of thing. Anyhow, we did go through with our swimming last Sunday.

I was quite proud of myself. I now know how to float. Haha. I know. I know. But could you blame me if I only learned to do it just a couple of days ago?

Now, I'm back in the office and one of the first things I'm doing is writing this blog entry when I'm supposed to be doing something really productive. Oh well. Don't you worry because after I submit this, I'll already be working on those other blogs I'm supposed to be editing.

Di ko alam na andito si Les. Last I heard, nasa Manila siya. Si Mayk, anong aaminin? Si Maja daw, nag-vagina monologues. O da vah? Si Mags, sinabi niya na talagang estudyante niya sister mo. Pareho sila ni Maja na teacher. At si Samm, okay naman ang life niya.

It's really fun to meet up with friends you haven't seen for a long time. And yes, despite me living near the sea for most of my life, I learned how to float just now. How ironic is that? ;P

Who is Atomicgirl?
Atomicgirl is a single mom who is currently jobless. Well, she does freelance SEO and writing jobs and that keeps her busy. She dreams of being a professional photographer and she dreams of owning her very own dSLR. She loves the Internet and she also collects movies, and good reads. She considers herself to be a fan of Johnny Depp and David Cook. At present, her constant source of happiness is her son, James Nicholas Sky, who is a bubbly and talkative two-and-a-half-year old. Although Atomicgirl graduated with a BA Communication Research degree, this feisty Bicolana is quite satisfied with the industry that she is involved in right now. She now lives in Legazpi City although she sometimes misses the fun times she had during her 6-year stay in the jungle of Manila. She is a woman. She is a writer. She is a mother. And she is most definitely not a saint.

Buy me a cup of coffee.
