Ampotah halos buong araw walang signal ang Globe sa bahay, sa office o kahit saan man ako magpunta dito sa Q. C. Sobrang nakakaasar na, di ako makafunction ng maayos dito sa work. Aside from this, andami kong errands na nacancel dahil walang signal. Feeling ko tuloy sobrang helpless ko, ang daming dapat gawin pero hindi naman ako makagalaw without prior notice from other people. All that i could do was to think of assumptions, hoping na tama ang ginagawa ko. Sana bukas hindi ako bahain ng mga messages from my clients

As everybody was still having a New Year hangover, I was just surprised to find out from my HR that my contract wasn’t renewed by boss. Wala na pala akong babalikan sa itaas ngayong 2008, how’s that for a new year! Well, being in the program monitoring for 11 months, I can say that I already had an idea that this would happen, maybe still because of the issue that sparked before, about 2 months ago. I remembered what he did on my birthday celebration/ weekly meeting in the office when he discussed what happened in front of the whole department with due respect to that big birthday cake of mine. Since I knew that I was wrong, I quickly apologized and kept in mind that because of that, things would be the same anymore. But in all fairness, in reality, it was really meant to happen it’s just that I’m the person who got involved on it. All along I thought that the issue has been settled and we would just charge it to experience, neither do I know that he still have more in mind. Up to now, I still don’t know his grounds for he would not talk to me. All I can do was to think assumptions. That’s so immature, unprofessional and undiplomatic. I understand the fact that no one’s indispensable in the company more so that maybe we have already been attached to each other and it’s hard for him to let go and involved himself in the middle of such emotional event, nevertheless it was his job as a boss or else di ko malalaman ang mga kailangan kong baguhin at iimprove. I know to myself that I deserve an explanation. Ayoko naman na ako ang lalapit sa kanya dahil I have nothing to say in he first place, furthermore it would just make me look helpless gayung hindi naman. Kung trabaho at trabaho lang, I’m already burned-out and if not for the people and the payroll matagal na akong nagresign. It was a dead end job full of intellectual masturbation, desperately trying to analyze the subjective TV viewing with the help from the barely credible TV ratings. Walang growth and it was just easy money. Sadyang naunahan nya lang ako this time. Well I guess I have to start my new year with a completely new life, job and attitude. Everything seemed to fall in to place dahil swak na swak ang pagpasok ko sa Velvet as a copywriter/ producer. Though the job was more demanding I can say that I’ve been given a chance here to grow and do what I really love most. Pero syempre, di pa rin maiiwasan na mamiss at malungkot dahil sa mga officemates ko sa 15th floor. Medyo awkward na rin sakin and buong vicinity. Kahit sabihin pa saking its ok to drop by there because more than officemates, we were also friends, iba pa rin when you think na your’re no longer part of it anymore. (gosh naiiyak lang ako) To my officemates, just remember that if you need something, im just a text away. Di naman ganun kalayo ang 15th floor as 10th floor kung nasan ako ngayon dahil may elevator naman. Hope nothing would change, yosi pa rin sa 13th, inuman sa Janero at videoke Cosala’s. Hehehe I’m really gonna miss you guys (lalong lalo na si....guess who) hahaha!

Celebrate a hundred years of our State University! Featuring a kickoff parade and an amazing fireworks display! Let's go for some maroon school spirit!
A HUGE MOTORCADE participated in by the different units of the University of the Philippines System from across the country will highlight the UP System Centennial Launching on January 8, 2008 that will kick off celebrations for the State University’s 100 years of existence.
The UP Alumni Association, the organization spearheading the kick-off activities, announced that the motorcade will start from the University of the Philippines campus in Padre Faura, Manila -- where the first UP campus was first established in 1908 – and will proceed to UP Diliman in Quezon City beginning at 12 noon.
UPAA President Ponciano E. Rivera Jr. said the Manila convoy will then be joined by other motorcades originating from UP Baguio, UP Pampanga and UP Los Baños and will converge with the UP Diliman contingent along Quezon Avenue at an appointed time. The grand motorcade is expected to enter the
Diliman campus at about 4 pm, after which a series of grand launching ceremonies will unfold.
Lion dancers, ati-atihan performers and a host of UP dance groups will welcome the motorcade in front of the Oblation statue where a big crowd of alumni, students, faculty, staff, supporters and well-wishers are already gathered. Sky jumpers bearing the emblem of the various UP campuses will land in the open area near the College of Mass Communication.
Ten tambuli players will then blow their horns from atop the Administration
building, amid the ceremonial firing of 100 rockets (“kwitis”) to announce the
start of the program.
100 torches will be relayed around UP Diliman’s Academic Oval, with the first flame being lit by a 100-year old alumnus. The last flame will be lighted by UP President Emerlinda Roman, who will then proceed to light the UP Flame, as all the flaming 99 torches are extinguished. Simultaneous with the lighting of the cauldron, the “UP @ 100” lights display at the Quezon Hall go on and the grandly lit trees around the academic oval come to life, making the UP campus blaze with lights on its centennial.
One hundred rifle shots will be fired into the air by the UP Rifle Team, ushering in the announcement by President Roman that the UP Centennial Year is
open.
A free concert featuring internationally acclaimed UP alumni,
among them, the Philippine Madrigal Singers, Ryan Cayabyab, the UP Symphonic Orchestra, Nanette Inventor, and UP Symphonic Band follows at the UP Amphitheater. The evening will be capped by a grand fireworks display.
All UP alumni and friends are invited to take part in this historic event. For
inquiries, please call 981-8500, local 2589 or 2590 or send a fax via
632-928-2947.

To be an A-List Celebrity in Hollywood, it’s all about the amount of Vanity Fair, GQ, and People Magazine covers you can score. To be an A-List Bloglebrity on the Internet, it’s all about the amount of link love you can score.
The Low Authority Group [D-List Bloggers]
(3-9 blogs linking in the last 6 months)
The average blog age (the number of days that the blog has been in existence) is about 228 days, which shows a real commitment to blogging. However, bloggers of this type average only 12 posts per month, meaning that their posting habits are generally dedicated but infrequent.
The Middle Authority Group [C-List Bloggers]
(10-99 blogs linking in the last 6 months)
This contrasts somewhat with the second group, which enjoys an average age not much older than the first at 260 days and which posts 50% more frequently than the first. There is a clear correlation between posting volume and Technorati authority ranking.
The High Authority Group [B-List Bloggers]
(100-499 blogs linking in the last 6 months)
The third group represents a decided shift in blog age while not blogging much more frequently than the last. In keeping with the theme of the maturation of the blogosphere, it seems evident that many of these bloggers were previously in category two and have grown in authority organically over time. In other words, sheer dedication pays off over time.
The Very High Authority Group [A-List Bloggers]
(500 or more blogs linking in the last 6 months)
In the final group we see what might be considered the blogging elite. This group, which represents more than 4,000 blogs, exhibits a radical shift in post frequency as well as blog age. Bloggers of this type have been at it longer – a year and a half on average – and post nearly twice a day, an increase in posting volume of over 100% from the previous group. Many of the blogs in this category, in fact, are about as old as Technorati and we’ve grown up together. Some of these are full-fledge professional enterprises that post many, many times per day and behave increasingly like our friends in the mainstream media. As has been widely reported, the impact of these bloggers on our cultures and democracies is increasingly dramatic.
This is my first blog entry for 2008. Nalungkot ako dun ah! Sabagay i have to admit that i dont blog much often because of my tight schedule. Isa pa, hindi naman ako kulang sa pansin na kailangang pang iblog lahat ng malilit na pangyayari sa buhay ko tulad ng nakipagcoffee date ako kay _____, i had sex with _____, we went to ______ at marami pang ibang _____. But i do make sure to update you guys kahit papaano para so that you could still be intouch with whats happening on my life and at the same time para mystery component parin para sa ibang tao. hehehe
Happy New Year guys!
