thoughts from 4 years and beyond
it's 10am and i have not eaten my breakfast yet. as usual, i'm not in the mood to eat. i just want to sit down, watch the myx hitlist, and just relax. i don't really like to sing, although i sing in my thoughts (yay yay yaaaaay... the song by vhong navarro of d’ anothers… bwhahahaha), but i do enjoy listening to music.
as the sound frequency comes rushing into my ear lobes, passing thru my ear canal, up to the 'star in a million' hemisphere of my brain, i can't stop myself from thinking... in random, with no main idea. it all just pops up naturally... flowing freely... from my inner thoughts... the memories of you… shall i write it down?
it all started 4 years ago.
wow, 4 years na pala akong nasa IT work. i kinda miss the people from my first job, all of you. it all started in mandarin, in the new joiner's orientation. i can still remember how unconfident i was that day. who wouldn't be? surrounded by intelligent young people from Ateneo, La Salle, UP, UST... all speaking the dialect i don't like much at first. anyone from the south? yeah, there were 2 girls from laguna... what d! and so i was there with all the stress in a first-job-first-day day of a man's life. there were around 20 or more in our batch, seated in pairs. and i was so damn lucky that my partner was absent. what d! i can't forget her lastname, 'Alvarez'. gee, hey i'm gio and you're alvarez... gio alvarez? the star from the 'Ang TV' show?
and my corny world started in my first job. i was branded as 'jologs'/’giologs’, thanks to E (because of the corny stuffs daw, pero tawa naman ng tawa sila. what d!), and 'boy bastos', thanks again to E, the girl with the sweet smile, nyahaha... duh! i just had 2 or 3 green jokes... and then all of my innocent jokes have green stuffs in your mind! hahahaha... especially E and T! remember when we were talking of having special abilities and I chose the ability to fly. but M said I have to remove all my clothes before I can fly… funny… then hirit ko naman, he has to be nude also before he becomes invisible! ayos! tabla! then all of us have to be nude before our special ability can be used… what d! nde naman tayo bastos, we’re just on the same amplitude.
but i kinda have this serious look daw... hahaha. i can feel that all new members in the team are somewhat afraid or maybe just shy to talk to me, but after they know me... hmmm... parang nawawalan ng respeto... hahaha, juk! dati tinatawag ako na 'Sir'.. tapos sabi ko wag ako tawaging 'Sir'... then finally, ayun... naging 'Kuya!'... feeling close! gio na lang pede? 1 year lang naman tanda ko sa inyo e! hahahaha... miss ko kayo! kay R, ikaw ang kuya ko, d ba mas matanda ka pa sa akin? kapal ko! hahaha.
Obviously, i was serious in my job (o baka dahil takot pumalpak at pagalitan ng mga managers from east and west... hahaha). i became an idealistic young man who wants to be perfect in his work. i maybe oc-oc but i take it positively. i was happy that you like me, i think! hahaha (baka dahil takot sa evaluation kaya mabait kayo sa kin!) hehehe. pero salamat at sinamahan nyo ko sa mga late-nights and no-sleep moments, for understanding that I am just doing my work. honestly, i never could have achieved any better if we were not being supportive of each other. kayo lang ata kinantahan ko ng ‘tarzan and barok’… hahaha. para sa inyo talaga yun!
i had fun but i had to leave even if it hurts! nyahahaha! thanks for the friendship. naalala ko tuloy, muntik na ako maiyak nung last day ko with the flash presentation you had for me in the all-hands meeting… and the last day of picture-taking we had in the office.
i've learned so many things from you, from the company, from my superiors, from my friends, from my teammates. i surely miss all of u. WS will always be part of me. you will always have a place in my thoughts.
thailand next time ha!
so here i am and i have to stop writing my thoughts or i will be on diet again... hahaha. i will be celebrating my 1st anniversary in my 2nd job this tuesday. i am still enjoying my work here, for now. in here, i am still the same gio you know, a silent, shy type who does not want to be visible at all… syet, i really want to be the invisible man aside from being magneto, who can fly! i think i am still workaholic and oc-oc, but i'm trying not to be much, coz i'm tired of being one and just get disappointed or frustrated. pero nde ako jologs or boy bastos d2... maybe i have changed then... hahaha. and most of all, i am happy. i maybe far from all of you but people around here make me feel i'm in the same place as where i was 4 years ago... with you.
good luck to me! my mind singing... i say we'll never make it, but just look at us going strong...
hey! i love my job but i will never again love a company. that's my thought, but thoughts may change, depending on the background music... bwahahaha!
good luck to all of you. kung d pa rin kayo bitiwan sa project na yan hanggang mag-5-years na kayo dyan, sobrang mahal nyo na talaga ang WS… hahaha.
my brain cells are tired and the acidity level of the gastric juice in my stomach are in all-time high. my mom is calling. time to go to church. time for brunch!
