where'd the weekend go?!
(a rhetorical question)
Sunday, December 11, 2005
Well, well, well! I've been amiss the past few days. Haven't even had much time to hang around RAKScraps this weekend, and I miss the fun. *sigh* It's been a busy week at work, and I can't believe it's freaking Monday already tomorrow. Where did the weekend go?!?! Anyhoo, lemme tell you all about my week.
We had our office Christmas party last Wednesday night, and I had fun...surprisingly! There was a dance competition amongst the different departments, and our team was SOOOO good! Uber talented, I tell you! We cinched 3rd place, but seriously, and all biases aside, I felt that our group performed the best. Who the crap knows what's going on in the judges' minds! When we got called as 3rd place, there was a shocked silence from the audience. Now that alone is enough to tell you what we should've bagged first place. Ok, so before I get called a sour grape here, I'm moving on. LOL! Oh, and just so you know, I'm not part of the dance group. I wanted to, but my body couldn't hack it. Jeez, just the stretching alone was enough to send me into cardiac arrest.
Anyhoo, the party was fun, despite the results of the dance competition. There was a band that played after the whole program, and it was like a blast to the past! There was 80s music blaring from the speakers, and I found myself dancing ang gyrating on the dance floor. And with no influence of alcohol whatsoever! LOL!!! Man, what a hoot! So who cares that I didn't even win one of the 52 raffle prizes they gave away that night...including a home theater system! At least I know I can still dish out the moves with the rest of 'em! Ha!
I had the funniest "day-after-effects" of the party...I lost my voice. Seriously. Totally lost it. When I woke up the next day, I was as hoarse as you could ever imagine. It was sooo funny, and everyone at work was laughing at me. Hell, I couldn't even answer my own phone! Communication to me was strictly via email or sms. Or sign language. LOL!!! Things are slooowwly turning back to normal, and I now sound like a frog. Hopefully, by tomorrow, my voice will have some semblance of normality.
Can I just say that I was such a sloth yesterday? I slept at about 11pm on Friday night, and I woke up the next day at 10am. I had breakfast, then I slept again at about 11am and didn't wake up until 6pm! Yep, no lunch AND no shower. Holy shit, huh? Yeah, I can be a total pig sometimes. And it doesn't even end there. So I took a shower, then dressed in fresh jammies again. LOL!!! From jammies to jammies! And I have the gall to ask myself where the weekend went! I'm such a nut.
Today, we celebrated my mom's birthday. She's turning 56 tomorrow, but she doesn't look a day older than 40. She makes me optimistic that I will also "suffer" the same fate. I'm turning 31 in a few days (hint, hint!) but I can still pass for an 18 year old. LOL!!! Hey, it's MY blog ok? So just sit there and read.
The entire family was here tonight to celebrate, and it was so great seeing my brothers again. And of course, darling little Chloe was here too. The minute she got in the door, she had that cheeky little smile of hers and she just waved and said "Hiiiiii!" in a sing-song voice. Too cute!!! I was able to take so many fantastic shots of Chloe tonight, and I was so bummed out when my battery died on me. My fault really, for not fully charging the batt. What a dumbass. Note to self: buy an extra battery. But I still got some awesome shots, so that's ok. My battery's fully charged now, so I'll share a few photos with you in a moment.
A dear friend from Singapore made my day today. After feeling a bit ignored the past few weeks, I feel special today. Surprised, but special. Not sure if he even reads my blog. But if he does read this...thanks, Ro! Smoochies!!!
And with that, goodnight folks! Have a great week ahead!

Sounds like you had fun, and probably needed the sleep! I've been known to pull a few jammies to jammies days :) Chloe looks too cute in that fabulous picture :)
80s music! don't you just feel like dancing when you hear those? our party's on the 16th, i hope we have as much fun, especially since it's been quite gloomy around here. or at least, manalo man lang ako sa raffle! hehe :)
my mom's a beauty at her age, pero so far, mukhang hindi ko namamana yung genes niya, sob!!!

Hey Tin,
So you lost your voice again, huh? I remember when you started working at C you lost your voice during the 1st few days.
Oh BTW, do you still have your bump car? :) Na-karma yata ako cause I now drive an automatic too. Now look who's talking! :)
