Caltex Experience
2 days ago, I made my choice. I chose to quit my job. I don't even know if it was even considered a job or a past time. I've thought about it on the last weeks of December. I thought it was enough experience for a teenager like me. Besides, I've got lots to learn in the future. But even though I decided to quit, I will always remember all the good and "bad" experiences I had with my job and the people.
October 2008
I arrived in Frisco around late October. Mom and Tito Jer offered me work. Mom in our store and Tito Jer in Caltex. They promised to give me a salary. Mom was competing with what tito Jer is going to give me. It was really hard who to choose. Mom was being herself when I picked tito Jer's offer.
NOVEMBER 2008
On my first day, I was excited that I really woke up so early to do it. I was pretty good on the first day. The people except Manette was really silent on me. I already knew Manette from before so it wasn't that hard to talk to her. On the 5th of November, i brought to work 2 of my cousins, Andree and Krishna. I gave my iPod to Krishna hoping that she would like to use it. At the end of the day, she told me that she left my iPod on the table. I wasn't sure if it was on the table on my office or the tables outside. When i checked my back that night, my iPod wasn't there anymore. The next few days it was getting really hard. And the job got a little more demanding. Well, the boss was much more demanding than anything else in that place. but really most of the time are spent in front of the computer. ROFL. Oh and i remember this month was minute maid month, meaning the whole month, I made minute maid my water.
DECEMBER 2008
This month was well, December. The Christmas month. I hosted my first party. my first Chrismas party. wasn't that grand but well at least made the people happy. This month, i lost my phone at Jolibee. placed it on my jacket pocket. then after a second, it was gone.

It's almost 5am and I'm still up and kicking. Wanna guess what I'm doing? Nah. Let me just answer that. I know you guys have bad minds and maybe thinking I'm looking at porn. I'm actually reading. Again. I bought a book last night titled, "ECLIPSE" by Stephenie Meyer. I guess all of you already know what that is since it's part of the infamous Twilight Saga. For ages, I've been dreading to read this book since I've already read the first two. So last night at National Bookstore (which they renovated by the way and I only noticed it last night since for 2 months I was away from Davao) when I saw they had stocks of the books (finally!) I didn't hesitate buying. I was supposed to buy Eclipse and Breaking Dawn but I was short of money. By about a hundred I think. Now, I'm gonna borrow money from my mom to buy the next one which would probably be next month since I'm going back to work on Thursday or on Saturday.
Another thing, a few days ago (or maybe weeks. I forgot), I posted a link about a golf brawl by Bambee Dela Paz (I even had the guts to fucking send it to the daily inquirer.net). Well, now it's all over the news. I even read a blog supporting the Pangandaman side. Well, enough of that. At least now, Bambee and her family almost have the justice they really want. Though I really wanna see the interview Bambee had on UKG (Umagang Kay Ganda) of ABS-CBN. Alright. I guess that's it for now. I'll be back soon when again I feel like writing. :)
For now, I'm gonna leave you with some pictures during my grandpa's burial. The complete set of the JARABELO CHILDREN:

GoodBye Lolo
Recently, my paternal grand father died. It is a sad event for the family but just to be honest, we were already expecting his departure in this world. The good thing is, lolo's death was a ticket for the whole family to be together. Not just my immediate family, but the whole of my paternal relatives. This is the first time we are complete in one venue. I haven't been this too close with my cousins. I even met new ones who are actually people who talk and not people who sit on the side, waiting for their fathers to finish gambling. Oh yes! I was actually pointing at someone.
This morning we (me, my brothers and my cousins) were talking about how we want our wake right after we die. I actually started the conversation when I told them when I die, I want to be placed on a black coffin, if possible it has to be black marble ( but i think that's not possible since coffins are only made of wood or steel). I'll be in a white suit with a very flashy tie. nah just kidding with the latter part. I still want a white tie to make it so "holy". And I want white flowers given to me. Then one cousin said she wants her coffin to be color pink. Hot pink to be exact. and she wants to be dressed in a ball gown. She wants her eyes open when she's placed in the coffin. In short, she wants to be a doll in a coffin. Weird.
Well, if you think I'm pretty random it's OK. I haven't slept like 24 hours. We were too busy having fun. During the first night, or was it the second night. We were introduced to new cousins. 2nd cousins. John and Louie. We've always thought second cousins are arrogant, gutless people. well, not them. We actually had some "conversation" with Andrew another cousin being the funny one in the bunch keeping the company alive and kicking. The whole night we were talking, drinking, laughing our hearts out. It was actually a good night. We stayed up until 8am in the morning.
Tomorrow is going to a sad day. Lolo will be put to his final resting place. I'm ready for it. Though I'm not sure if my emotions are gonna be stirred tomorrow.
