My Dad

My dad came home after almost a decade in the US. He stayed with us for a month, April 8 to May 5. He brought home some chocoaltes and several pounds of beef. LOL
It was good to see that was doing well. He seemed happy to be home. He spent most of his time visitng relatives.

One of the most memorable things he did was read my palm. Dad has always been a fan of palmistry. Anyway, according to him:

1. I will be married/in a relationship 3 times but I won't have kids
2. I will be traveling between the US several times
3. I will gain, lose, gain, and lose a lot of money but I won't be poor
4. I am sexually loaded (LOL)

He read all of this thru my left palm. Apparently, the left is what you can gain; the right is what you are born with. But since your hands shed skin every 4 months, I should check again.

Deep Fried

It's amazing what people will invent to eat quickly. Above you can see the menu available at Mini Stop, 7-11's competitor here in the Philippines. The menu composes of deep fired...normal food. Nevermind the normal fried chicken, get a load of deep fried siomai, siopao, and pocket sandwiches!

How can people eat this crap?

Empty and Pitiful

I found this bench on the bus strangely empty. There was nothing wrong with it, at least not that I could see or smell. Other than the fact it was pushed to the side of the bus rather than across, it looked perfectly fine. I found it pitiful because no one wanted to sit on it. Some people even preferred to stand.

Saying goodbye to my ex's

Ex-teammates that is. I'll be a reassigned a new team due to the schedule rotation. Eyen, Kat, Connie, Zue Anne and Kate were a great bunch of direct reports. They made it easy for me (I know coz I'm in the GY shift now and I wish I could go back to the AM shift).

We went out for dinner at Dencio's and then to IO for some videoke fun. The funny thing was Zue Anne and Connie weren't taking calls at work to take voice rest. Cheaters!

Too bad Kate wasn't able to join us.
