Hmm…been a long time without updates. So much have been going on in my so-called life. Mostly, busy with work. The upcoming business trip to Singapore is taking a toll on me. Action items and unresolved issues should be done and cleared before we take off. And our external auditor (who I thought was done bugging me) came back with a vengeance. Requesting from me nitty gritty schedules that could take so much of my time. Oh well, I have my priorities intact that’s for sure. The auditors have to wait for awhile. That is until I come back. And I have my Boss’ go signal on this. Cool!

On a different note, for the life of me, I just can’t understand people who tend to be out of touch most of the time. I just feel that most of the efforts to reach out are coming from me, and I feel bad and totally taken for granted. The thing is, I’m getting tired of this game. I just need to be told if my presence is needed or not and like what I did before, I will just back down. I don’t need anybody to patronize me. And I am not asking for too much. Just a little time and some effort to initiate any kind of communication. Sometimes it just feels good to be needed or to be appreciated. You feel more human that way. Otherwise, you’d feel like an old used toy.

Alright, did I sound selfish there? I guess at some point you have to realize that a relationship is a two-way thing. You want to walk your journey holding hands and not groping in the dark in fear that you will fall in a bottomless pit without anybody reaching out for you. Sad isn’t it? Well, I think I am magnetized to these kind of scenarios. Either I am being such an attention seeker or I have so many selfish people in my life. Hmm…I think I am getting a bad ratio analysis there. This outpour is not getting me anywhere, I am feeling more bad as I go on.

Change topic: To a friend (Tuliro) who is leaving for Dubai tomorrow. I wish you luck in your new endeavor (I think I’ve told you this already) Its sad that we didn’t get the time to “bond” but I hope we can do this in the future. Pls do keep in touch. I know how lonely it can get to be away from your family. Just keep your music playing. Bon voyage!

Auditors can really be a pain. I myself am in the middle of due diligence work so I have to shuffle back and forth between target and acquiring company. Look what I'm doing here in the office on a night like this. Anyways, I'm making a small deposit on my bank account of staying in touch. I know I'm almost bankrupt but at least the account is not yet closed. Puro DAIF lang haha. Making bawi! =)

sis, there really comes a point when we start questioning why it is "I" who always seem to try to reach out... "I" who always give the extra mile... and we become so tired we wanted to at least feel that "hey, i deserve that treatment too!"

but remember, each of us have a role to play. May be you were given that role because somebody else needed that much attention that only you could provide. If we just learn to accept our roles, we would not feel bad.

And don't be sad. For sure you are needed and very much appreciated. Some people are not able to show that to you the way you wanted them to.

I very much appreciated how you reached out to me during my hell days. You've played an important role in my life then.
