july 2007 events...

hiya! after 43 years of silence, i'm back here again. nope, actually it's just a month. i hadn't the chance to update all of july for a lotta reasons... eneweiz, here's some of my events last month worth mentioning:

** 06 July: NA Email teambuilding @ Hidden Paradise Mountain Resort

I tagged along again with my former teammates' teambuilding and we went to Hidden Paradise Mountain Resort, a really outta-the-way resort somewhere up the mountains South of Cebu. it does live up to its name: Hidden Paradise. it's definitely a great resort, and it's virtually inaccessible unless you have a personal ride or rent the resort van (demmit!)!!!ahahah =D

anyway, check out their website for contact info and resort pictures: http://hiddenparadiseresort.multiply.com/


** 14 July: DekkaBelle's wedding

D finally got married! who'd ever thought that will happen?!? (ok D, stop throwin' the punches, will ya...) =P her wedding was held in our parish church in CDO, but sadly I wasn't there to attend, me being in another island and all...

it seemed like a lifetime ago when we were agreeing that John Mayer's "Love Song for No One" is a fitting theme song for us... and now she has someone... (sigh!) I'm so happy for you, D! =)


** 21 July: ASP class double with Catching the Elusive JackPurcells

enrolled in basic ASP (E-Commerce) class. impressions: It's really kinda basic; if I had a book (and the drive.!.) I'm sure I can learn it on my own. but I just re-affirmed that I really have no remarkable interest in computer programming. I dunno if I'll stick it out on this one, but the certification, sounds good. it'll look good on the CV, if nothing else...

about the JackPurcells... since I suddenly had extra cash plus I found out they were on sale, I decided to give in and buy a pair of JackPurcell Converse sneakers. I really wanted the one with straps instead of with laces but it's not available anymore (I think that was last year's model), so I bought the classic edition instead.

it should have been easy except that I had to go to four different malls and to different shops inside these malls just to get the right pair. here's the gist: I went to Ayala, saw the red pair, loved it BUT my shoe size wasn't available. tried the navy pair but still no compatible shoe size. went to Gaisano Metro Colon, still no go. went to E-Mall but the Converse shop was temporarily closed. went to SM (and I swore this is gonna be my last stop!) and finally(!), finally I found a pair that fit. Never mind that it's the navy model when i wanted the red pair. JackPurcells are still cool! =D me happy!

that's it for July... ja ne!...
