My otherwise perfect digestive process has been disrupted & is now in great tumult, pity meh! This may have been caused by the binging yesterday at Blue Reef and the Oishi Manju this morning. I can hear the raging battle taking place inside my intestines. The undigested food in offense, while my bowel in defense. In a battle, there will be freaking casualties, can you blame me if I’m not very sympathetic?! Oh I could just die, literally die!

Tummy Tumult
Cried Like There’s No Tomorrow
I’ve known for quite sometime that she’ll eventually resign due to primarily health reasons, second is coz of mean people who were way too quick to judge and were way too harsh. But confirming what I’ve known all along was just way too much I think, the sense of finality was just hard. I dunno, she said she got her resignation letter printed out, she’d be giving it to our tl later. I know its for good, she’s not a quitter contrary to what others might think when they know about her resigning, she’s not mentally sick contrary to what others say, she has no personality issues contrary to what some people joke about.
Its just sad knowing that we never had the time to talk in all 12 months she has stayed with the company till the later part. I mean talk about wasted time … she’s real, more real than anyone I’ve ever met, closer than anyone else has ever been to me. The effortless way she saw through me, and the way she understood was something I never expected from anyone.
Was okay when she said it earlier this morning, but when I get to read her latest entry on her blog, thats when I started crying … just cant stop em from flowing. She had Signal Fire by Snow Patrol back on her blog, this song would always remind me of her, the thought of her leaving the company, the song, reading her post, made the tears fall from my eyes like theres no tomorrow.
Her latest post:
Today, I will put an end to a chapter in my life that lasted for a year and eighteen days. Hopefully, it’d also put an end to a sweet dream that turned sour.
I am leaving this chapter of my life behind not because I am quitter, or I’m not strong enough to face the challenges. There’s a saying that goes, “When everything is coming towards you, You may be at the wrong side of the road”.
I am moving on for good… again, not because I’m a quitter but because I feel that it’s time to start something new, to grow and explore.
Tomorrow, it will be a new day for me. A new beginning.
(to be continued..)

I know am not losing her, she’d still be around thats for sure, but one more friendly face gone from the floor is just a sad thing to contemplate.

My reminder of someone beautiful, of someone special and of someone strong, tosha, tosha bro for being around, for understanding, for everything.
On Hobbies and What Nots
On hobbies and what nots, lets see … mom said I keep a boxful of useless things consuming up much needed space. Hehehe … guess thats true, had so many proclaimed hobbies cant seem to keep track of all of em.
First of is my passion for writing, that in the advent of technology has made me switch to blogging. Then comes swapping with people from all over the world, coz of these I got a bunch of stamps, postcards, fonecards, stickers and stationeries worldwide. Am also fascinated with FB’s, efbs, decos and slams. Whew! Mom used to say I spend so much on my “childish” vices, imagine sending a parcel to Poland, or to Germany … usual postage for me is like P360 regular airmail for one parcel to one person. And its not just one person mind you … hehehehe … but I dont have any regrets, I like the correspondence am getting from these people, so near yet so many miles away. Next is cross stitching, something me and my mom both do for a hobby which at one point became another source of income. We both liked fairies and ladies with delicate dresses. Next is photography, am a frustrated photographer, hehehehe, took pics of myself (showing my narcissistic side), of nature and of beaches and sunsets. Then my collection of hankies, dunno why but they fascinate me among many things … got a drawerful of hankies from complete sets of days to months. Lets see, what else, oh I still have my oldest collection since grade school, a bunch of stationery sets … one boxful of em, from flowerettes to bugs bunny and beauty and the beast. Am almost 22 but I still havent stopped collecting, dunno why, just find them pretty (like me lol!). Found this survey online about hobbies, made me make note of all the things that I do which can be considered hobbies.
