Today's wows

wow!

-- i really miss some things about working in makati! the walking is great. it's so easy to step out of the office and have a pleasant walk to clear your mind. ( i used to do that rather often when i worked in the factory.) i believe this realization has much to do with the fact that i work right beside edsa -- i clear my mind by walking there and i will have to be peeled off some rampaging, decrepit bus's front bumper.

oh, and in makati cbd there's no shortage of decent to good places to eat. and the mall! two or three freaking blocks to greenbelt -- a short walk i would have despised before, but am totally craving now.

-- damn that chikn fillet sandwich from kfc is soooo yummy! why have i been stuffing myself with the bigger, greasier, twice-as-expensive zinger all this time?

-- lays vinegar chips! we had them for the first time at our weekly unit meeting (renamed "unit eating") and they are soooo good. i must have eaten half the bag... and that's ok! right pia?

-- i'm genuinely interested in booking tickets for this year's singapore arts fest. i've been going to singapore around the time of the arts fest for three years, and i've generally made up all sorts of excuses for seeing any of the shows. well, there was the stroj two years ago, plus the chalk art thingy. but since then, deadma. i'm open to that changing this year, though, which i realized when i opened the yearly mailer i receive from the arts fest people. this looks really interesting, for one thing.

-- my boss doesn't wear a barong! i don't know why i should be happy about that, and no offense to bosses who wear barongs, but today i realized i'm really happy that that's part of who he is.

-- someone i just met today who does wear a barong told me this: "you might very well be heaven-sent."
oh and can i make singit just one wow i had tuesday? marlon, as he shut the lid to the trunk, his suitcase inside and all ready for his flight back to singapore: "you are too good to be true and too good to pass up." it totally blew me away. especially knowing what i know.

last weekend was a huge wow, too, but i'd rather write about that with the photos.
