February 24, 2010Makati City
+++++++++
Today, was a day wherein I was super busy.
Travelling by taxi, train, jeepney, and on foot to boot!
I had some blisters, my foot was aching, my legs were unsteady
and I was sweating like you wouldn't believe.
from Makati City to UN Avenue,
from UN Avenue to Edsa,
from EDSA to Quezon Avenue,
then all the way back to my place,
then from my place to Ayala Avenue and our office
then..it was almost back to some other place I already passed by...
but I rebelled at 10:30 pm and stayed put.
+++++++++
I looked with overwhelming satisfaction
and bottomless glee...
at a box of chocolates my teammate in Belgium sent me.
Her bewildered hubby asks her -
why she keeps sending me chocolates
during the time that a mutual friend flies
home for the holidays,
from Belgium to the Philippines.
She answers, "because Cat is so thin, I have to fatten her up!"
Aww, so sweet!
That is the up-side to the work I do.
No need to diet...hahaha!
And chocolates to gorge on by concerned friend and co-worker.
Ain't life really just like a box of chocs...?
p.s. sweet and dark coz I got some dark chocolates from her, and the other add-ons are unusual...
ReplyDeleteex. ginger, pink pepper..added to the chocolates...
yum-dum-dum!
Sarap!
ReplyDeleteda bes!
ReplyDeletethe other fun part of getting chocs from my teammate (Hetty) is that I invariably go to places I've never visited before. Last year, I ended up here...

this year, its the same sister of Hetty's hubby's colleague who was holding on to the chocs as I was still in Cebu by the time the colleague had arrived from Belgium...
(if we use aliases)..
so there I was receiving a text from somebody tagged as "Camilla"...and then the text is preceded by "hi, this is Diana"...and I wondered, oh is this another sister of Beth (colleague of Hetty's hubby) ? but when I met her, she looked familiar and I thought maybe she was Camillla's twin - so I asked her....
ngeh...it turns out she has two Christian names pala..."Camilla Diana"
*toink to me*
Belgian dark chocolates are the BEST! *pa-inggit*
ReplyDeleteOh girl, I simply have to agree. Nothing like choc to perk one up.
ReplyDeleteMommy V!! even if there is no reason at all...*chomps on more chocs*
