a year in between


latest entry in the archives: march 2009. newest entry: february 2010.

shane? where have you been? it’s been almost a year in between posts! that’s a pretty long hiatus, don’t you think?

well, been too busy at work. same old alibi ey? yeah, it’s true. believe me for once. :P got my hands full, especially when the development manager left. i was his “junior” sysad. so, when he left, all his responsibilities on the administration department was now on my shoulder. been half a year since i think.

aside from not having my own computer and internet at home, couldn’t really write something after work hours simply because i was already tired needed to get home to rest. it’s only been last november 2009 that i got my own desktop and internet connection at home. so, now that i’ve adjusted, i’m blogging away!

so what’s new?

first off, i’m not living in makati anymore. we moved to pasay last october. at first, i was hesitant of the transfer. i hate traveling. it was just a walking distance from my office to where i used to live in makati. and i’ve been used to that kind of lifestyle even in my hometown, that the university is just a few blocks away from my home. but after surveying the place, i found out that it’s just a one-bus-ride from our new home to ayala avenue, which is just in the vicinity of where i work. so i got it considered.

the ironic thing is that transportation cost when i was still in makati is a lot greater than compared to when i’m here in pasay. back in makati, i would take a cab (since there’s no direct route for bus nor jeepney) which costs me about fifty pesos/one way. but while here in pasay, i would only cost me exactly twenty-two pesos, and that’s back and forth. ironic, isn’t it? living in makati is indeed pricey.

work related – i just turned one year in current employer. time flies by so fast, that i could hardly believe more than 365 days have passed. i’ve been given more and more responsibilities, which equates to information overload! yeah, i’ve been expanding my skill set day after day. there’s always something new, and it’s great.

i’ll have a more detailed post on work related stuff in the next few weeks, or months. :P

it’s nice to be back writing again, though. i missed wordpress.

yo, bartender! gimme one bottle of gps, will ya?

cheers guys!
