Colleague's Last Day
A close friend at work is leaving today. Only sunk into me that it's going to be his last day. A part of me does not really care about his departure, but I have to admit he has been a part of my work and personal life (he's the guy behind "The Exposure Theory" lol). Couldn't erase the fact that I'll be partly sad too. I realized that when he dropped me a short note today and thanked me for everything that we have been through together. That was touching, glad to know that even if things did not work out with us in the past (let's just say we drifted apart along the way), we still have an pretty happy ending.
Oh well, people come and go. That's just how life rolls. Now I wonder when that time will come for me. What will make me move on to the next chapter of my work life?

BKK!
I have something to look forward to this May... Our BKK trip. Although it's for work, I'm pretty sure I'll learn a lot from this trip. My first time to have an Asian biz trip aside from North America. I guess I will start counting down the days....
But before that, I have Caliraya & Mt. Pinatubo to be excited for as well.
Yey, I love summer!

Friends???
I spoke too early. He's proposing that we fix things again... as friends. Honestly, I don't know how to approach the whole situation. It's either I go for it or just avoid him again forever. I'm not sure if I should listen to my mind of my heart. I will have to seriously contemplate on this.

2nd Month.
It's been two months since the nerd and I have last spoken. Two months have passed since I received that damned "friendly" greeting card and informative cookbook (yes, it's very informative-- contains 200 recipes below 200 calories while the other one's about 1,000++ pages thick! LOL). Two months.... and counting.
I can't believe time has flown by THIS fast. A lot of things have changed. I went through a major work dilemma (still going through it), been to T-Town & CDO, joined my first run, made friends with a new officemate, continued running some more, lost some weight, partied like rockstars at friends' birthdays, attended a close friend's wedding in Tagaytay... It has been nothing but pure awesomeness for the past weekends of 2010.
But admittedly, there are still days when I miss him. :( Once in a while (especially when I chance upon watching EMO movies hehehe), I still remember our happy moments... But of course after those happy moments, the annoying moments follow. haha.
I don't know, I guess I just miss having a friend like him. He was one of those people whom I could talk to about anything under the sun. With his different cultural background, he would always give me a different perspective on things and issues. I also enjoyed giving advice and helping him out with his issues. I don't think I'll meet someone like him at home.
On the other hand, from these past two months of contemplating and living my life to the "fuller" (not fullest, I believe I have not reached my peak yet hehe), I realized how much I have learned from our failed relationship. The most important thing I have learned is never to give soooo much of yourself to someone else because you lose yourself in the process. I realized I was probably too clingy to the point where it became abnormal already. I figured that there's no such thing as "fate" and "soulmates". I became a lot less of a hopeless romantic... I'm not sure if this will be for the better or worse, but I realized as well how this whole experience has "traumatized" me to fall in love again.... I'm definitely not going to jump to a new relationship anytime soon... Heck, I am not even getting attracted to other men (so not me, by the way)!!
I actually attempted to communicate with him very recently but I did not get any reply. I am sure he has his own reasons. I'm no longer expecting him to reply back, he's probably moved on and is in a better disposition by now. I guess only time can tell what will happen. For now, I just need to accept and move on. I think I am almost there. I hope once I have totally gotten over him, we can still be friends. We have the same birthdays, after all (haha where's the connection?!?!).
