So I finally did it. I filed my resignation last Friday. I didn’t think it was going to be as tough or as emotional. I guess 2 years do mean a lot. 2 years worth of friendship, memories and a whole lot of laughter and tears.
I had to go to the head of Sales Training once again yesterday to reiterate that my decision is final. But still, she has yet to sign my resignation. Hmm to awol or not? Nah..
But it does spell the end of a chapter. I woke up really late today, and yet I was compelled to take a shower and just be active. It's the beginning of new things and while my premature departure from Nestle wasn't as well planned as say the impending wedding, I have always believed that things happen for a reason.

Looking Back: 2009 National Sales Kick Off
Just got back from an overnight trip at Pampanga with some friends. So far I am loving February - nothing but adventures and vacations. Serious work will soon haunt us down but for now, we’re enjoying our last few days of surrealism.
On Sunday, the batch would be flying to Dumaguete for our much needed R&R. The yearly tradition of CMT graduates after every kick-off.
I mentioned the last time around that we were the organizing committee for this year’s Sales Convention, here are some snippets of the behind the scene preparation.
What: MAVP Shoot
Where: Abandoned Alabang Factory
Wear: Our Kick-Ass Adidas jackets
What: Teambuilding Simulation
Where: Le Pavillion, Café Adriatico
Wear: Athletic “gear”
What: Teambuilding Proper
Where: Le Pavillion
This is the event I co-championed with Kaka and of course our main man Carlo. Dear friend Jezer took care of all the production requirements. A lot of blood, sweat and thankfully no tears were shed during the preparation for this day. Definitely a fun fun time for the three of us. Something we all would be looking back at when we are assigned our permanent post.
Sigh I really need to sleep early tonight. I unwittingly agreed to go on this trekking trip. 4:45am call time?!?! Wishing I can back out now!

End of an Era
Definitely an exaggeration from major drama queen, but it does feel like the end. Anxiety creeps in all of a sudden. And you feel like it’s the last few days of high school all over again. There’s this exhilaration from finally completing an excruciatingly challenging program, yet at the same time it’s coupled with this gnawing pain from knowing that in just a few days it will all be over.
21 months. 21 months that have turned 15 (then 25) strangers from mere colleagues to something worthy of more than just a Multiply shout out (hmm hence the R&R to follow!!!). And in less than 12 days you guys will all go your separate ways. Fortunately or unfortunately, uncertainty keeps you from thinking about that in the meantime. For now, the high from last week’s adrenaline-pumping-zero-sleeping back to back events is still lingering in the air. And yes a whole day is STILL not enough to earn those lost shut eyes back!
