A Night To Remember

We just had our company Christmas party, and it was one hell of a night. We had a damn good time. We all painted the town red that night. Many thanks to Marvis, who practically paid for everything.

We started out at one of the finest restaurants in our city. The food was great, but the company made it into the best party I've ever attended.

Note: I seldom attend parties.

Here are some shots from the Cafe:

After Dinner Shot


After that delicious dinner, we partied at one of the most famous clubs our town had to offer. The acomodation was great. Since it was a week day, we had no trouble getting a table. Anyway, we sat down, got drunk, and the girls danced the night away. I didn't join in on the fun though. I've had my share of partying in my day. I'm sort of reformed now.

So me and our CTO, Mark, sat down, talked and drank until the whole thing was over. Don't get us wrong, we still had fun. But not at the usual caliber we used to in the old days.

With all that said, here are the real party pictures:

At this point, we're all still sober....

Everyone in the right state of mind


Mancom in Black

Now, all logic and reason slowly fades away.....

Had enough to drink yet?


Gimme some of that tongue please.



Dude...Keep your hands where I can see 'em.

I still have more pictures I would like to share but unfortunately, I'm running out of web space and patience. So, I'm cutting it off right here. All in all, it was one hell of a night and it will definitely live in my memories forever. Thank you everyone for making it what it was. A special mention to Marvis, the coolest boss in the whole wide world.

The Love I Could Never Have

First of all, I would like to apologize for my tardiness in terms of posting an entry in this journal. I'm sure that my loyal readers, particularly the people at the office, are on the edge of their seats in anticipation of my next entry, which is this one, which took me a while to come up with because of these two reasons: 1) I have been extremely busy; 2) It took me a while to figure out what to talk about. Now that I've finally decided on a topic, I'm just writing my heart out with all my skills, if you will.

So, about this entry's title, no, it's not about Rosie. I will repeat what I said before. Rosie is a good friend, and a excellent office mate. As far as I'm concerned, I have no deeper feelings for her, whatsover. This entry is about someone else, someone else you'd never expect me to have feelings for. This is the only woman I can say I really fell in love with in a very, very long time. I know it's immature that I must profess all my feelings this way, but I can't think of any other way that would not incriminate me too much.

Without futher adoo, I would like to introduce her to all of you. Her name is Siony, and she is our company's operations manager. You might say I'm aiming real high, but I'd be a hypocrite if I say that I do not love this woman, because I do. What attracted me to her, is that she is a very mature woman, with a firm grasp of the meaning of her life. She knows where she's been, and she has a very concrete idea of where her life is headed. She is also the type who would never back down in an argument as long as she knows that she's right. In addition to her being a person with principles, she also loving, caring, and sweet. This is the type of woman I've been looking for, all my life.

Now that I've found her, I must let her go. She belongs to someone else. I'm not permitted to name names outside the office, but I know for a fact that the man who loves her, deserves her. He loves her and she loves him. That's all the reason I need to back down. It would be unfair of me to take happines away from her. When a garden grows an extraordinarily beautiful flower, it's just not right to pluck it out for your own selfish reasons. And I'm not the greedy, agitating type. I'm a patient and understanding person. If we were meant to be together, then fate will bring us together. If not, then I guess time will heal all wounds.

I have so much to say about Siony, but I just can't put it into words. I guess that's how powerful love is. It gets us to babble a lot of utter nonsense and leaves us speechless at the end. Anyway, the bottom line is, I will never stop loving her, and if it's our destiny not to be together, then so be it. No matter who I'll love in the future, a piece of my heart will always bleed for her.
