my space

am very excited to transfer to my new room at the back of our house. it was used to be my tito's house. they left mid of june to live with our lola in cubao. luckily, there weren't any deliberations at home on whose gonna get the space. when i announced i'd get it, i didn't hear anyone comment about it. perhaps it's about time we should separate...even if it's just a door away..ahahaehe...

rayne will have her needed space for all her stuff. right now, everything's crammed inside my small small room where ate anna and i used to share. but now that she has kids of her own, she has left the room for myself. through nicole's, my youngest niece, persistence as well to sleep at the master's bedroom (because there's an aircon), they have been staying there for years. my brother's room has aircon too and we had an exhaust installed at the wall inbetween us to share the 'precious' cool air.

rye has been staying home more than he is at his house in retiro anyway so having this room by ourselves, w/ our own stuff inside, is a giant step in our 'family-making' process. the most thrilling part is the shopping! i would love to fill up that room up w/ things i fancy! finally..something i can call my own! we hope to move in by monday.

last sunday, rye & myself went to the podium to watch a special screening for superman returns. my boss gave free tickets (via email) for two to my TL (team lead), who eventually gave them to me instead. it was scheduled for 2:30PM. we weren't holding the actual tickets, i only had the email printout coming from the sales engineer of the Communications Company who sponsored the event. i called in prior to landing at the Podium to assure our entry. the sales engineer confirmed the validity of our attendance. in a few minutes, she texted informing us that the tickets were already sent to RCBC 6pm the other night. i was on vacation for 4 days and no one informed me of such. the lady even asked me to check at work but i told her that we're already parking near the mall so she gushed aside and said that we can still watch the movie but can't join the raffle after. we agreed. we were at the Podium at noon and ate lunch at the chix box (i vaguely recall). rye at that point was starting to feel sick with the flu but promised to try to complete all our errands that day. we had dessert & coffee at cinnabon.

round 2pm we went upstairs at the cinemas and we approached the bench where the sponsors were. our contact asked us to return by 2:30 so as not to 'mess up' the registration. i didn't get why she would say that but i still smiled back and returned an ok. we strolled around the 5th floor and ended up at subway, just beside the movie theater, while couples from different IT companies arrive and register. i've noticed that they were receiving their tickets only after they signed. that made me wonder why they would send our tickets to work and why theirs weren't. anyway, it was becoming irritating every half hour. our company's contact was simply sitting infront of us entertaining other guests while we were painstakingly ignored. rye was getting pissed as well. we stopped waiting at past 3PM. the movie, apparently, was set to show at 4PM. we just left and headed off to megamall. i texted our company's contact expressing our distress but had not received a reply. well...when my colleagues heard about it the other day, they reported my concern immediately to the Company who sponsored the show. what the heck, we can still see superman returns anytime.

at megamall, we began shopping. i bought a small 'jurassic' toy car for tylord's bday on the 8th. we bought blinds for the door in our new room or else it'll be see through from the outside due to the small glass windows fixed with it. got a new mattress too for our bed. we headed home around 7pm. rye got totally sick by then...poor baby...
