Southbound December 7, 2007

First, I want to greet Southbound a Happy, Happy 1st Birthday! Can’t really remember when I first discovered this blog but I’ve been an avid reader (and lurker at first) ever since. Not a day goes by that I don’t visit them, not unless I don’t have access to the internet. They talk about restos, bazaars, little cafe’s in the South and in the Metro that they aptly categorize as Sana Nasa South (loose translation: hope this was in the South). So there, Happy Birthday to you!

BF and I has a friend from the office who was sent to India for about 3 weeks to supervise newly trained analysts. Before this particular friend, 3 other friends were sent for the training. Anyway, he got back, I think last Sunday and come Monday he gave a cute ashtray as pasalubong. It’s not expensive but as cliche as it may sound, “it’s the thought that counts”. I get easily touched by these small stuff. And it truly is the small stuff that matters. Brief background on C — he was an acquaintance first because he’s BF’s team mate then he became a weekend drinking buddy then eventually he (together with his girlfriend, T) became our ‘jetsetter’ buddies. We already traveled to Bohol & Boracay together. It’s so nice to know that we have a ‘couple’ friend we can share problems with who knows us as a individually and as a couple.
