A Little Office Pantry Party for My Advanced Birthday Celebration

It's the eve of my birthday. But since tomorrow is going to be a non-working day (a Sunday), I thought I'm going to let my officemates celebrate with me a day early by treating them with a food on the table at the pantry. So, that's going to be a Saturday, which is today, of course. I had asked Psychosanctum a few days back if his father could cook his most delicious miki bihon for me. I knew he'll never refuse a favor, knowing how generous and kind he is, so, he said yes even without his papa's approval lol!

This afternoon, the miki bihon Dex' dad cooked and the chiffon cake (sponge cake to you) Gerry & florelee's thoughts and I bought from Albay Bakery were shared by the Content Development Dep't and Internet Marketing Specialists Dep't employees, plus other staffs of the company here in Legazpi. It was a good thing that the food was enough to feed all, more or less, 80 employees present this day LOL! It's just too bad that drinking session is out of option since I had myself promised to a complete alcohol and smoke absolution almost two years ago; so, guys, I apologize that I can't give you a night-out to party with booze.

Anyway, thank you to all those people who advanced greeted me. Even though I received no traditional-annual gift LOL from co-employees this year(I received a green shirt from them last year, thanks all!), it is a joy to see all people here in the office convening at the pantry to eat the little food I prepared for them. And, of course, I'm grateful to all the people who remember my special day. It's kinda touching that there are many of them who make you feel, well yeah, special, because it's your special day.

Speaking of birthday gift, I already received some from dear friends, like Verna, Yel, Ces, and a favorite cousin, Ate Lot, who is in Australia right now, in as early as January(yes, I had a birthday gift received last January when I went to Manila hehehe). In the next post, I am going to upload the pictures of all these birthday gifts I collected from them. Thank you so much! And by the way, Mina also gave me a gift by linking back to her site through a birthday greeting post. I'm kinda moved with the article because we were not that close when I was just starting here in the company. We even had a not-so good story in the past worth junking deep into the bottom of the trash bag. But, she's right. As the years moved on, we learned more of each other and discovered how our company can be worth keeping for a lifetime. Thanks, Mina, that somehow I influenced a few good things in you :-)

And for those who haven't presented me with a birthday gift, I am still open for cash, goods, mobile phone, laptop, a shopping spree, and, a salon certificate good for one or two hair treatment (perhaps, a hair rebond?hahaha). I'm just kidding, folks! It's my way of saying thank you, thank you, thank you, and thank you!

Of course, I wanna greet myself, Advanced Happy Birthday To Me! :D

Grace, my dear BFF, I wouldn't forget you, no? It's your birthday tomorrow too. I'm not forgetting it, okay? So, here:

Happy Birthday, too! May we continue enjoying our lives and more wealth, better health, and more wisdom to both of us!

Things-I-Have-No-Time-To-Do-List

1. General Clean - one thing I should make a weekly habit. But because of work-related matters, can't simply do it. Instead, I found myself cleaning my room once a month. Great!

2. Visit the mall - need to update my wardrobe. my closet has been full; unfortunately, with outdated clothes and accessories. online shopping might be great, but still don't have my home internet connection, which reminds me this is one thing to include in this list (will do at the last section of this page). Can't do online shopping at the office. Too busy with new projects and blog tasks.

3. Visit hair salon - need a hair trim. or why not a new short hairstyle? i would love to have this short bob hair of SANDRA BULLOCK copied to my mane. a hair treatment (perhaps hot oil?) will do uplift my spirit - badly need this.

4. Visit a dentist. need to have my upper and lower teeth corrected, plus some dental treatments applied, a task i should've taken cared of a long time ago.

4. Go to city registar's office. need to change my slightly erred name spelling. My BC inked the JERLIE (ggrrr to that person who did that little typo error X( ). It should have been JIRLIE (this is nicer, ayt), the right-spelled cutie name of mine :)

5. Go to school. need to talk to my instructors to let me take up final exams and give me a passed rating. haven't attended my subject courses for a few weeks now due to time-constraining tasks we've been piled up at work.

6. Go to beach with yad. need have nice, warm beach air freshen up my tensed nerves.

7. Organize my home PC and all files i got it loaded with.

8. Go to DCTV and apply for the cable connection and have internet activated as well.

9. And lastly, finish my BSCS tertiary course, so I could freely accomplish everything that's been planned.

obviously, i need better time management skills...

of course, getting lazy and procrastinating habits, and sedentary lifestyle off my system will do help big time...
