Work Updates: Iniwan na ako ni Lola Puti. Pinasok na sya ng anak nya sa isang assisted living sa California.

Nilipat na rin ako ng kumpanya sa ibang departamento. Nag iimbemteryo na ako ng mga refurbished and returned products. Pag wala gaanong trabaho, pinapawasak sa akin yung mga lumang GameCube gamit ang martilyo. Ang saya saya. Pero mas masaya sa pagiimbentaryo. Maraming kahon mula California ang mga walang laman. Ninakawan ba. Yung isa namang lola sumulat sa amin. Sinasauli yung gaming consoles kasi ninakaw pala ng apo nya yung credit card nya para ibili ng DS Lite. Hehehe.

Have a Blessed New Year to All!
