Lessons learned from Videoke….

October 28, 2008
Several nights ago, the boss treated us for a three (or was that four) hour-videoke marathon. Woot! Yeah, I think we deserve it. After all, we’ve been working for 5 consecutive weekends already for that sports fest thing. Right after the awarding, she ordered us to hail a cab  to go that fancy videoke bar. And naturally we obliged.  *EVIL GRIN* So here’s what I learned:
 
1. You are what you sing. Oh shit, did I mention I’m a frustrated rockstar…..oooops.
 
2. There will be variety from AEGIS to AQUA.
 
3. It’s nice to stay sober and observe how your officemate tried to hit on your gay officemate’s guy friend and FAIL… miserably.
 
4. The ZOMBIE-UMBRELLA medley should only be sung if and when extremely (extremely) intoxicated.
 
5.  Never ever do the A WHOLE NEW WORLD duet again. (ever)
 
6.  Hoard the mike and you die… a social death.
 
7. When you begin to sing songs you don’t normally sing. Be afraid. Be very afraid. Somebody must have spiked your drink.
 
8. Do not at all costs, sing BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY. There will be blood.
 
9.  This is not a concert. There is no MOSH PIT.
 
10.  Do not oblige on any sort of documentation (pictures, videos, whatsoever). This might and will be used against you.

Top 5 : What’s in Bohol?

October 14, 2008

Ugh. Back in Manila. Yeah, hello unread office emails and unanswered voice mails. But before I go ranting about them again. Let me just share my sabbatical.

Was I able to relax?  Yeah. I mean whatever it’s gonna be, I don’t necessarily get the exact dosage of dopamine because because a.) the genes won’t allow it. b.) things always gets fucked up one way or the other c.) may balat nga talaga ako.

But enough about that blabber. It’s actually my second time to travel outside the metro. We chose Bohol coz PAL offered these awesome tickets on sale last June and we took advantage of it. The hotel was nice too—ISIS BUNGALOWS. It’s beachfront and it was clean. The bathroom was large you can throw a party inside. Plus it offered a tour. It only cost 2500 for the entire bunch of us (we’re 7). So it’s so sulit. It was an 8 hour tour.  Kuya Dennis ( the driver and tour guide extraordinaire) drove us to the different destinations. We had different pit stops. It’s good that my motion sickness did not act up on me or else I would be a total loser. So here’s what we went to see:
