Marie and Coleen

April is almost over. Before we say goodbye to this hot month, I want to greet two of my closest friends on their birthday. Marie and Coleen. Marie celebrated her birthday April 13. Coleen, on the other hand, is celebrating her happy day today.

These two girls have taught me so much when we still used to work together. I absolutely miss their company and the affectionate banter. I would not have stayed in TeleTech as long as I had not met two such wonderful friends (as I said, I am lucky when it comes to friends).

Belated Happy Birthday Marie, and Happy Birthday, Coleen!!!!! 🙂

Most Promising Poet Award

I am so happy and proud to be posting the award that Jingle gave me today. I dd not expect to receive any more awards considering that I sometimes fail to post the awards that I receive. Anyway, I really want to thank Jingle for the award. Please click this link to access her blog, and see the one where she gave the award to me… 🙂

The day that Jingle visited my blog was really the day that blogging changed for me. It is the start of a bigger blogging world and me, being a part of it all. I want to pass this award on to three bloggers/poets whose works have inspired me.

1. Dr. Jekyll (The Good Doctor)

2. John (The Poet Traveler)

3. Wordwand (The Professor)

Warm Hugs and Cheek Kisses

I had late lunch with my girlfriends today. I haven’t seen them for a while now. What’s more was that this was the first time that we were complete. We used to meet up for lunch every now and then, one or two would always fail to make it. Today, however, even Fay, who was the one who always missed out on meet ups, was able to join us. I miss these girls so much.

We all met three years ago, when I joined TeleTech. Ever since then, we have always clicked. We eventually split up, leading our own lives. Leah was already with the OSC while the rest of us remained as agents. The next person who moved on was Fay. She joined the ACE team just shortly before Ynez joined the QA Team. After that, Honey resigned from TeleTech. I joined the ACE Team around May 2008, and Alex also left TeleTech shortly after.

It is amazing how much can happen after months of not seeing each other. Now, we all have very good lives. Leah and Ynez are now mommies. Honey is now with Convergys. Alex is an SME in Etelecare, and Leah is still very successful with the OSC. As for me, well, you know what I am now, and it’s something that I surprisingly love doing. All I can say is that I am happy with where we all are now. I am sure that the future holds so much more in store for us.

Golden Cup Award

I want to pass this award on to my very special blogging friends. This Golden Cup Award was given to me by three people, three bloggers who have been so nice to me in the blogosphere.

Blogger Buddy Award

This Blogger Buddy award was given to me by Shakira. Please click on her name, so you can check out her blog too. She is such a thoughtful and sweet person. When William had his birthday, she went out of her way to make a tribute for him in her blog. What’s more was that she contacted the other bloggers to greet William too. She really put an effort into making William really happy on his birthday. When she receives an award for her blog, she always makes a tribute to the blogger who gave her the award. I am indeed very lucky that we got to be friends. She is a gem. 🙂

I want to pass this award on to:

1. Brian Miller (for being really supportive and for visiting my blog everyday… 🙂

2. John (for being very open and friendly, even when it was just his first time visiting my blog)

3. Wordwand (because he has an award for almost every other day)

4. A Leaf in the Breeze (because a girl can never have too many friends, and it’s always best to meet as many new ones as a girl can handle)
