Where's My Crown?
Posted at 07:10 AM

And Morpheus tugs at my sleeve again... Will I get morning or GY shift? Hmmm! Now that I have the prerogative to choose, things are even more confusing. At the moment, I'm enjoying the nice view west of my station. The sun god's beauty salutes Ayala and is brightly streaming through the smooth blue blinds that cover the gray panes; half-closed, halfly snoozing. Light blue shadows cower over other buildings, as if to say, "We are your guardians for this day. You are safe".

I remember being complacent and feeling the most wonderful feeling one could experience -- the warm embrace of someone you love and who loves you dearly. That is always a nice thought. It grows even more as you nurture those precious moments. But they are meant to be kept in guilded boxes; opened only during times of gratitude.

Advent was asking me before why, at times of displeasure, do we remember the beautiful things shared with someone and not the monsters that sprouted from a relationship gone sour? It's probably because during the times that you are in deep amour, you look at the nice things, the little things that make you crack a joke, curve a smile, and/or make your eyes twinkle with delight. You never plant seeds of hate because its growth would only lead to your own self-destruction. You want to contain whatever ephemeral moment and clasp it to your heart forever.

I smile to myself each and every time I have these little conversations with Derrick. It pleases me that I have a friend who invokes such queer questions but lodge thought-provoking answers in the end...even if he sometimes pops these queries in jest or simply, through pure innocence. Hahaha! Derrick=Innocent? That's a laugh! You're such a good friend to me, Becky. Sana hindi ka mag-bago, even if I wasn't able to give you some of the carbonara I cooked earlier. Nevermind that. Let's make caesar's salad and salsa and nachos for our moms one of these days. Bonding ang mga Becky! Hahaha!

I'm in a better mood. Probably because Snotty was already able to explain why he dropped the phone on me last night. Dionysus, indeed has that effect on little imps like you. Tigilan na kasi ang inom. Moving forward, I tried to assist the newbies in their training yesterday. I'll be moving up to Web Hosting. So It's goodbye VIP for me. I pass you the crown, children -- old but untarnished. Make us proud! And so, will it be morning or GY for me? Hmmm...
