Too bad nakapikit ako, di bale, Jay is also squinting!
The early birds are given gifts for arriving there on time, which prompted the host to announce in jest... "siguro halfday kayo no?, kami kasi late kasi tinapos pa namin ang trabaho namin". Coming from Laguna, we're lucky enough to allot a mere 20 minutes just to get from office to the party place. The party is always a sure hit, as proven by positive attendance rate (even members from as far as Baguio, from Texas Instrument, were also there to party).
I saw there familiar faces of Sales people from forwarders who would occassionally visit our office to offer their services. Some of them have became our friends already, because of the working relationship and the constant communication, sale courtesy call and being together on the regular SETMA meetings.
For most of the games, the host would get representative from each table either individually or in group.
I wasn't able to participate in any of the game (too bad there's no "12 days of Christmas" song challenge this year. Last year, I had the bragging rights of being able to sing that song completely). But, when they were calling in people to sing, my officemate Arlene volunteered me in <cge na nga, kapal muks naman ako pagdating sa kantahan ha ha>...and additional kapal muks, I asked "me prize ba yong kakanta?"....and the host said "of course"...so GO!!
It seems that their videoke song chip is outdated (read: Abba, Carpenters, Madonna) and they don't have the latest chip (read: Imago, MYMP, Nina). I seriously searched one by one for my song genre. And it was nearing the end, then voila!...I saw one of my favorite videoke tune "Torete" by Moonstar88. It never fails. And is always a very safe song for my vocal range. Bukod sa feeling ko, in love ako (the teenager's way) everytime I sing it. Feeling ko di naman sila naasar ha ha.
So that's it muna....more Christmas parties to come!
Nag oath-taking na ko <joke>....well, what do I got?
...new blogging friends
...new blogging rights
...bragging rights
...inspiration and more confidence to write
...I am now contributing a profound meaning to the connotation of the word "pansitan" - he he joke uli
...sarisaring ideya at kasiyahan
Salamat!
Cheers!
Born on the date when people wouldn't miss sharing a gift, raised in a cool place where we give prominence to the letter "R" (in our town's spoken language, most of the Tagalog words with letter "D" are replaced with letter "R"), and now living and working south of somewhere, with a very colorful life soundtrack. My videoke national anthem is "Goodtimes" by Edie Brickell I am shallow - a decent mug of tea with milk pleases me ; and I am deep - I usually trail socio-political news and issues especially when there is probe in aid of legislation (sabi sa inyo, malalim e ha ha). My personality is very much defined by my iPod music collection. I have a passion for singing and usually takes extra efforts to be discreet and resist the overwhelming urge to sing for hours. Don't worry, the mic still has a chance to leave my hand, when too-mainstream tunes come in.
