Day 261 - High and Low

Because my sister's in town, our family went to Tagaytay Highlands today. I got to ride the cable cars for the first time! I discovered that you could see the swimming pool from the cable car, and apparently my dad discovered that you could see the cable cars from the swimming pool, too. Here's a picture of him taking a picture of us. ;) You can even see the shadow of our cable car on the ground. Haha, ang babaw ng kaligayahan ko!

Day 111 - Mattera Matibay 4

Oh, I can say a lot of things that I didn't like about the job I quit 3 months ago, but it would definitely not include working with these people. :)

Today we had our 4th teambuilding event, which is a fancy way of saying "team outing", because it's not exactly a real teambuilding (Case in Point: I'm still included, even though I haven't been an employee of the office since July). We've called it "Mattera Matibay", after our office team name, which starts with the word "matter". Talk about bonding experiences. We have these teambuilding events out of our own pockets and we organize them ourselves, too. I'm usually one of the organizers, and therefore not a participant of the games, but we changed it up a bit this time and had the boys be the organizers (that's why they're wearing matching jackets).

The rest of us, all girls, were split into 3 teams -- Blue, Gray, and Red. As you can see, we're wearing our team colors. :)

One of us, R couldn't stay overnight. We didn't want her not to be in the picture, so we took the "traditional" group pic tonight, instead of the usual Sunday morning.

In case anyone's curious, we're at one of the (many) private resorts in Pansol, Laguna. Unfortunately, I couldn't remember the name of the place. But if you really want to know, leave me a message and I can ask one of the organizers.

Day 94 - "Our" Swimming Pool

My mom has always wanted a pool but because it's too expensive to maintain and our house doesn't actually have the space for it, we got the next best thing: membership to a place that has a pool, that's only about 15 minutes away (if there are no traffic jams along the way) from our actual house.

We went here this morning since my mom didn't have to go to work, in lieu of the holiday (Eid Al Fitr).
