My last entry about us being transferred to another account fortunately did not happen. To make the long story short, we fought for our right… and we won! Woohooo! (Except for Tracie and Jay Mag…) Aaahw!
Well, anyway, my post will begin after the reshuffling happened. Hmmm… as far as I can remember, after the news about the transferring broke many of the agents, including our wave mates, planned to resign. (Can’t blame them…) So resignation letters piled up like term papers waiting to be graded! hehe!
Anyway, this entry will serve as a dedication page to my wave mates (and
special mentions).
MARSHA: The prettiest, meanest, most irate agent I’ve ever worked with! BUT
she’s the prettiest, meanest and most irate friend I have! haha! She maybe mean and all but she always have the best intentions for you! (Actually she’s not THAT mean… medyo lang!)
JOY: The Mutya ng Imus… A southern belle! Soft spoken, gentle and meek…
Ok, enough about me, let’s talk about Joy! haha! But seriously, she’s all of
that but one of the things I love about Joy is she stands up for her decisions
and if her decisions fail, she finds a way to turn it around to her
advantage… She’s a very bright girl! I like that in a woman… Rrrrr! haha!
PAM: Pam… Pam… Pam… What can I say… she’s Pam! I’ve never seen a
girl like her… It’s like she is a woman possessed by a gay ghost or maybe
she’s just simply a gay guy… I dunno! But one thing for sure is… she’s sooo
gay!
TZIE: A very sweet and simple girl with big dreams! But she doesn’t only
dream big… she makes it come true! Tzie, kala ko magiging classmate tayo sa
med school… Unfortunately I need to go my own way to achieve my dreams! Ei,
stay sweet, simple and always aim high!
MANUEL: Haaay! Manuel! He is a very complicated person! This will be a
very long post if I’ll write everything down and explain why. So to sum it
up… He’s easy to love but hard to maintain! He’s like a dog (na may breed!)
haha! Pero napaka swerte ng mamahalin nito. He’s so loyal, so caring and sweet! Knowing Manuel, mag mamahal ‘to ng buong puso (naks!)… Hmmm… yeah… tama nga… parang aso lang!
***Jay, simple reminder… Iwas chikinini para iwas intriga ah!?! NO EOF! 
LEA: Petite figure, irresistible sexy body, gorgeous looks, flawless skin and oozing with sex appeal… An epitome of a woman! Lea is God’s gift to men! (Lea, pasok mo na lang sa account ko yung bayad mo for writing this for you… Thanks!)
Kidding aside, Lea is actually just an average girl (average meaning, all that
was written above are not true!) but what made this girl stand out is her genuine concern for you! Hmmm… You know what? I think she really is God’s gift to men… or… to me at least.
ARA: Ara is a smart girl with lots of stories to tell. Ask her what is Systemic
Lupus Erythematosus? She’ll tell you its meaning, epidemiology and management PLUS she’ll also tell you which celebrity has it! Lupet diba!?!She’s not chismosa… she’s just updated with everything.
NEF: I’m a lover, not a fighter… so I always take Nef with me to
protect me! Hehe!Yes, she is aggressive and boyish in nature but she can be
very ladylike if she wants to (again… IF she wants to!) haha! Seriously, Nef will be there for you if you need her. And I’m not exaggerating when I tell you that she can and will sacrifice herself for you!
DENNIS: This guy is as stubborn as a heap of rock! No means no and yes
means I want it by hook or by crook! But underneath that stubborn image that he is portraying (is he just portraying?) he is a gentle soul! He is nice, reliable, caring, giving, and understanding… He rarely shows it but he is… (who am I kidding!?!) He really is a nice guy… (hahaha!) In fairness to him eh at least he is nice to me…
KRIS: Kris and I always share non-sense stories like “mananaggal in APAC”, “lalaking foreigner na nasa Jaipur na nakabukaka”, “ang walang kamtayang medley sa McDonald’s”, “ang mirakulong langis ni El Shadai na amoy Eucalyptus!”… Haaay! Time flies kapag ganito ang kwentuhan! I miss those times.
JAY (MAGBOO): Ala eh! Kamusta na ba ire diy-an!?! Ako nam-a’y mabuti dine! (ang hirap! woooh!) So How’s Magnolia (his daughter’s yaya)? I heard she left you… (MIA daw ah…?) Haaay! So sad, because of her you need to resign! Anyway, keep that jolly atmosphere around you. You don’t know it but your smile is very contagious; it makes other people smile as well.
ARDEE: Ardee, my soul searching buddy! Ei, just remeber that you can face your problem with a smile! Donut lang ang katapat ng problema natin! haha! Ei, stay strong Ardee! Thanks for the very wonderful gift that you gave me. It’s very heart warming… Pag dating mo dito
eh let’s not soul search anymore… ayaw ko na ng problema… Let’s search
something else…
LANI: Probably most of you always see Lani sleeping and eating! But she is more than that, she is madaldal (while eating La-La), she is mabait (while sleeping), she is mapagbigay (ng La-La), and she is madasalin (‘cuz I always see her quietly sitting still and eyes closed) or maybe she’s just sleeping! Haha! But she really is makwento, mabait, mapagbigay and reliheyosa… Here is the reason why I consider her reliheyosa… “cuz she has this panata in Church that she will be the Hermana Mayor/Reyna Elena. She always goes to Church to dance and offer flowers. And get this… You’ve heard about the “Flores de Mayo” right? But have you heard “Flores de Abril”? San ka pa!?! Kay Lani Lang yun! She is the Herman Mayor of their “Flore de Abril”.
RAQUEL, IYA, MAROSE: Hey girrrls! Kamusta na girrrls!?! I hope you are doing fine girrrls! I just want to tell you guys that these girrrls are very sweet girrrls. Sweet in a sense na kukurutin ka nila, hahampasin pag natutuwa sayo, lalaitin in a “nice way”, may kasama pang discrimination in the workplace… hmmm… stuff like that! Anyway, stay “sweet” and I’m sure you’ll have lots of friends who know how to tae kwon do (para patas lang pag nanakit kayo)! Go girrrls! Luvyah girrrls! Hugs…
But seriously… I miss my girls!
As for those still working for APAC (for how long…?)
CHRIS: Chris is one of the best guys I’ve ever met. He’s funny, charming sa mga driver ng van and ma-boka! But the best thing I like about him is that he has this talent of knowing if you are bothered and he can make you feel better… (what a freak) anyway, yeah, he’ll know if I’m disturbed and we’ll start talking and suddenly I will feel enlightened about my situation. I dunno, sometimes kasi magulo utak ni Chris so nonsense talaga ang lumalabas sa kanya but still I feel better after we talk… Thank you Tsong!
EHMJHEI: She gives balance in to your life. When you’re down and troubled she’ll make you feel blessed by saying things like “buti ka nga yan lang ang problema mo… ako nga bingi eh!”. When you’re happy she’ll make you feel bad by saying things like “ang saya mo ah… mamamatay ka din! Ulol!”. If you’re with her, your life is just perfect… so balanced… so plain and simple…
LU-ANN: If silent waters run deep, how deep is Lu-ann, balon? If you say you have the right to remain silent… I can tell you that Lu-ann is exercising her rights! If you say that you have to think before you speak then Lu-ann double checks or even triple checks what she’s gonna say. Get my point!?! Haha! Let me quote Pam when I say “stand up and be counted!”. And uhmmm… Lu-ann, don’t just stand up ok!?!
PAUL: This guy never fails to surprise me. There is always something new to learn from him. May it be Unicare updates (when I say updates I mean chisimis!), cooking techniques, trivia and even life’s problems and how to deal with’em. If you’ll spend time to talk to Paul definitely you’ll pick up something new to ponder. By the way, Paul makes the best chicken sisig!
ZHA: Zha, I am sorry I can’t write anything to you ‘cuz my blog is wholesome… I know its unfair kaya I’ll do my best… here it goes:
Zha is old… yun lang! thank you! (hahaha!)
pero kidding aside… if I am to describe Zha in one word (na hindi vulgar)…
that would be: ASIM! Yun na yun! Kayo na bahala kung ano ibig sabihin nun!
TRACIE: Tracie is like a cartoon character made flesh… It’s like her actions and words came from a comic book (Funny Komiks). You’ll never get bored when you’re with her… Lots of things to talk about and lots of funny moments… I miss those days! Haaay! Ei, here, I’ll share a phrase that always brightens my darkest days: “Sa Pag-ibig… Sa Pag-ibig… Mah-nohng… Sa Pag-ibig…” (repeat to fade) If you wanna know the story behind this eh you could ask Tracie! Haha!
Special mentions:
KATIE: I just want to thank you for everything that you have done for me… actually for all of us (wave 25). As a trainer you were there patiently teaching us the product (kahit na I always question the benefits), teaching us how to use the system (kahit na I question the system itself)… As a TL you were there looking after us when we were about to be transferred to a different account. You were never too busy for any questions or problems we may encounter. As a Queen Mother (Shet Baklang bakla! Queen Mother!), you were the reason I go to work everyday and you were there to motivate me to do my best. Haaay! Tama na ang drama! Basta I would like to thank you for everything! And you might ask yourself someday if you are a good TL… Well there is no doubt that you are a tough act to follow!
***P.S. ano ba gusto mo? Puti, Itim, Molato? Name it and it’s
yours! Haha! Basta paubaya mo na lang sa akin ang friend mo! Hahaha!
YSA: I never thought na magkikita tayo sa APAC… and it’s weird ‘cuz everytime nakikita kita eh I always see the Analiza I went with in high school! Same old laugh, the bubbly aura, and that sweet smile that makes me feel that I have a friend whom I can turn to. Thank you so much for making me feel safe and secured while working at APAC.
***By the way, I still have the Mickey Mouse pen you gave me
nung high school!
JASON: Just wanna
say hi… HI! (hehe!)
***HI! (Ulit!) 
Thank you. Wish you all the best!
