if only i could write songs then i would already have thousands today. moods, feelings, stereotypes. naku madami ako niyan...
being a team leader poses a challenge not just on resolving technical issues but more so on the part wherein you have to be fair with everyone. two things i make sure: first, that no one feels any favoritism from my part and second, that a relationship established would not just be on professional terms but something that goes beyond workplaces. don't get me wrong, i mean to be friends/barkada with everybody at least.
after almost seven years with my current employer, i've established different kinds of friendships with different kinds of people. some short-lived (obviously short stint lang sila sa company eh), some purely business, some colorful (nakagalit, nakabati, nakatampuhan, nakabati ulit hehe), others profound (goes beyond mabo-boteng usapan and the billiard table, we became part of each others' lives. naging ninong na nga ako ng mga anak nila eh), and still others i'd say would last a lifetime (there's my BFFs Rona and Brian. ay corny!.. likewise with the other 11 who figured out in a vehicular accident recently and together we survived).
and for almost seven years, i have seen friends come and go. oh well, that's life and the only constant thing we have is change. every day we encounter changes which could affect us directly and thus drag us a bit into either the bright or dull side of life, or indirectly which still ripples through our emotions.. for this year alone, four of my team members left and i'm proud to admit that i am affected each time. why? simply because we have made that connection, that bond, which when you not see them as often as before seems to bring void within. dang, i am easily attached to people and i know in a similar manner this puts me in a more difficult position to leave..
oh well, life goes on. so long friends and when we cross paths again in the not so distant future let's pause for a moment and reminisce of those good times. chao!
or maybe i'm still shaken up with the recent accident i've been through. i think i need to see a psychiatrist...
