Thought Bubbles...

musings, rantings, and what-have-you, about my own small part of the world, and my 'sometimes' not so-ordinary life...something to read and reflect on, and which hopefully will bring a smile to your face... :)

‘Twas the week before Christmas…

Last Friday night, attended 2 Christmas parties! It was our company Christmas party and though I was new, no getting out of it, I was the host. I don’t really mind since I’ve gotten used to hosting our Company parties and the like, being in HR and all.

It was a good way to get to know the employees, and I admit, I also have fun when I’m hosting. Got so busy though that I was on stage during the whole program, and of course, didn't get a chance to eat until after the party. Well, am pretty used to that happening, too.

After our program, stayed just an hour for the dance/disco, then went over to my high school friends' mini-reunion/get-together. As expected, had a blast! We were laughing and reminiscing, and funny, but our topic was what happened during our last EB (‘eyeball’) last July. :) Nice to see our friends from Switzerland, Jeni and Cesar, and my “blog” mentor Pepe (who’s on vacation now from his job in Singapore). :) Hey, guys! Hope we can get-together again soon!

Next week, might just also attend my former company’s Christmas party scheduled on the 22nd. I was actually invited by my (former) boss. Am seriously considering attending, since it will be my first time to see my former co-workers/friends since I left almost a month ago. Besides, it's really quite an honor also since I know they don’t make it a point to invite former employees to the party as it's exclusively for employees.

The weekend was spent wrapping gifts, gifts, and more gifts. This is one ‘chore’ I don’t mind doing. :)
