The sink in our office pantry is broken again.  The drain is clogged, so we have to go to a different floor to do our dishes.  It must be wear and tear.  I hope our office would hurry up and replace it with a new stainless undermount sink.  It’s really inconvenient, especially during graveyard shifts.  Hope they can fix it before it’s my turn.  

It’s the first month of 2012, and I know it’s too early to speak of vacation plans but I really feel like I need one.  If only I have the time and money to go out of town.  If I could, I would want to visit Bohol again.  I really enjoyed the beaches there and the people are very hospitable, not an irate soul in sight.  I would also want to go on a road trip.  Maybe I could ask some people to bring their car.  It would be perfect since they also have a thule bike rack, so I can even go for a leisurely bike ride, maybe in Tagaytay?  Oh! What a nice dream!  If only it could come true…

My father needs a new watch.  I was planning to give him one last Christmas but due to some financial constraints, I was not able to do so.  So this year, I’ll try to save up so I can buy him a new one.  I heard there will be a big sale next month and I was eyeing some citizen watches for him.  I’m trying to get the model that he most likely would want but is still within my price range.  Hope it all works out, so sport a new watch.

Did you know that coin collecting is one of the most famous hobbies in the world?  It is also very expensive.  For example, a silver morgan dollar cost from $800 to even more than $1K.  Just for a single dollar, imagine that!  Truly, only the rich ones could afford that kind of hobby.  Well, I’m fine with my stationeries collection. ;p  
My cousin Eve and her husband are currently in the process of building their house.  So she's looking at a couple of home magazines to get an idea of what she want the interior to look like.  One thing’s for sure, she likes to have wood flooring.  She also specified that she‘d have the floor laminated by alloc original.  Yup!  She’s got it all planned all right!
Saw MTV Cribs the other day and one of the houses that was featured was so fancy that even the switchplates of his house was customized for him.  Man, you gotta hand it to these guys.  They sure know how to spend and enjoy their money.  As the song goes, “…some guys have all the luck!”  Can’t help but wish to have that kind of luck too…
My cute and chubby niece will be attending a New Year’s ball tomorrow and she’s a little worried about her dress.  See, she bought a plus size prom dress for the event and now it seems that she wants a different one.  It was only when we reassured her that the dress is looks good that she felt good about wearing it.  And she sure looked pretty wearing that red ensemble. ;)
I thought the scanner in our office was broken, ‘cause when I tried to scan some documents no image would show up on the monitor then an error prompt would also pop up.  Good thing that one of my techno savvy colleagues was there to assist me, and it turned out that the problem was with the scanning software.  After he reinstalled the software, I didn’t encounter any more troubles. Yipee! 
I want to learn how to create flash presentations.  I know that it would be an advantage for me to have it as an additional skill in my C.V.  I wonder if I can find some tutorial videos on it in YouTube.  I’ll try to check later.  I actually tried reading an eBook about it and it got me more confused. So I hope the video tutorial will much simpler then maybe I can get a job as a report designer.
The holidays is almost over, passed by like breeze didn’t it?  Well since the 2011 is about to end, I’d like to do a list of the 5 top gifts that are commonly given during the holidays at our office.  So here it goes…

  1. Calendars – I bet you receive at least one of these during the holidays… ;p
  2. Ball pens – somebody’s always losing one, so might as well give one
  3. Pen holders – so you can avoid losing your pens… ;)
  4. Chocolates – who can resist them anyways?
  5. Fashion accessories – just be sure that the one you’re giving matches the personality of the recipient

We’ll that’s it!  And I swear, I receive them every Christmas.  But as the saying goes, it’s the thought that counts!  Happy holidays everyone! J
