Party Galore!

As this year ends and every one is giving thanks for the many blessing received. A celebration in whatever way possible is a must or shall I say a tradition? I too have my own fair share of parties to attend before we close this year with a grateful and hopeful heart for the years to come. It can be really exhausting at times though- the preparations that is. Well enough of my rants and just keep the drums rolling..:)


MJ's Despidida (going away) Party and team reunion.

Letchon- the all time favorite! I promise that this honey really taste wonderful that it looks.


The ever present Spaghetti.

Lumpia Shanghai.

I cooked this one- Halang-halang or spicy chicken with coconut milk. I must tell you it's really spicy.

The bread sticks really got no choice.



Seems like karaoke is the best way to start the night with...:)

And then we looked like this after a few rounds of b**r...:P Photo credits to Phioxee.
Nobody really took the move on saying goodbyes, it was funny. We are all just there to have fun and be together for the last time with our supervisor. Well she warned us ahead not to give any messages about the whole going-away thing and leave her in tears. We are just happy to grant her that.


SFC Batch 22 Lord's Day and Christmas Party

We are to end the Christian Life Program (CLP) with the Lord's Day. Lord's Day literally means the Sabbath or the day of worship. As for the SFC community, this ceremony resembles the Sabbath Ceremony actually used by Jewish families for beginning the Sabbath.



In this Meal we make use of the Jewish form of thanking God for his blessing, which called "The Berakah" (Blessed are you , O Lord, King of the Universe, Who, etc.)




After the ceremony and the dinner is already served. Each household is to present a number.


My angels.

I was happy to give them a song with my colds. I was a bit off range but I think it just went well.
There were gift giving and some recognition.
With the Music Ministry.
With my fellow facilitators.
Before I forget, there were sharers talking about their experiences with the CLP and their life after CLP.
There were gift givings too

We ended the activity with a praise fest.

Share a Toy, Share the Joy Teletech Year End Party

This year's theme is Share a toy, Share a joy. Remember how I told you about Teletech focusing on charities. This party is one testimony to it. Teletech sponsors kids from different orphanage to give out toys. Each team is assigned 2 kids for the gift giving. We are also to spend our night with them at Tierra Alta Clubhouse, Valencia. Let me share some photos of the night.



The famous light house.

We got to play with the kids.
My friend supervisor Eddie with some of the Sto. Nino Home Foundation kids.

The place is so gorgeous and perfect! After eating and some chit chats, we immediately invade the area for a couple of photo shots.

The whole E-Care team.





Me, Gorgeous Val, Momi Begging, and blogger best friend Phioxee.

WiFi Team Christmas Party

We call ourselves the WiFi Team because we are one of those people who can actually sit down together in a WiFi place without talking for at least 30 minutes or so. It sounds alarming, but we are just like that. We talk when there is a need to talk, or we share each others view on Facebook's comment box. It's crazy! But that is just how we bond. Hey! We know our limits too. At least when we get bored online...haha

We dined at Lab-as Seafood Restaurant. The grilled panga was to die for. Sorry, got to no pics. We were all starving, so...
This is the very good example of us. I have a cold so perhaps it doesn't sound right.
We went to Watever KTV Bar afterwards for a couple of songs and for our "something funny" exchange gift. I realize afterwards that we have different views on that "something funny." Photo credits to Joeny.


I think I said too much here. It was indeed a season of calories, cabs, and worse cholesterol. Kidding aside, we all deserve to celebrate the year end. This is one way of reminiscing what our achievements were for the last year, and give thanks to it. I know you guys will have your own parties to attend, so have a blast and enjoy the holiday season. Merry Christmas to you and your wonderful family!...xoxo!

Let's fly Tierra Alta!

I think I have always blogged about me having so much fun on the beach or in water. Now this time, let me take you to heights as I took my first zipline ride at Tierra Alta. We had this one day team building- you know how it is in the call center. We have all sorts of team building....hehe, and we thought lets do something unusual. Let's go up in the mountain and experience the rush, and so we decided to take the zipline challenge. It was awesome but terrifying as well....hehe The land is actually a subdivision intended for high-end residents who wishes to get out of the busy city lights, but the place has this gorgeous cliff on the far end of the lot so they turned that side of the subdivision into an adventure park. Genius! Let me take you for a ride...:)

The landing zone.



There is the tower. It is too far...hehe but I like the view of it from up here. We climbed their tower to see the full mountain view. It was worth the dizziness...hehe

I always thought I don't have that fear of heights, because I thought I can manage it...hehe I was a bit surprised when I actually felt so scared climbing the tower where you are to be board. My nerves are actually shaking...hehe but somehow deep within me, I need to get over it. I can't let it spoil the fun...hehe

Meet the people behind every metrics hit...:)

My gurls...love them!...hehe
We need to sign those waivers first..I object!...kidding...hehe
Do I have a choice here?...hahaha
Let us get this thing started. I am so excited after I signed the waiver. I actually did not read through it. I know I can make it...I mean, that's the spirit!...go go go! Let's ride the cart...hehe

Go Tito Albert!

Pretty Val!

Hey! That's me...hehe so proud of my self...hehe

yeah!

Job well done dad!

I know you can fly...hehe

This is how to pose for cuteness even up in the air...hehe

Was it successful?...Val says "Oh yeah"!
Since we went there early and finished ahead of time. There is still lot to see. What to do next? Took photos of our selves...hehe..We are so not nars...:)









 My first zipline ride was a blast! Beating and overcoming that fear of heights is an achievement...hehe I was like...yeah! the whole time I was up in the air. This getaway is also made possible because I have my closest friends with me. You know, sometimes a brave heart comes from an assuring eye of a friend. What more if you have friends...get the picture?..:) Now, I'm thinking, I'm ready for any up-in-the-air rides..so bring it!...xoxo!
