Dizizit! Happy New Year!

If you have been an avid follower of my blog, you would know old stories of my "blessing in disguise" experiences. Another one just dropped.

Last week was one of the most stressful week I've ever had in the office. Endless deliverables. My nose stuck on the monitor. Couldn't get off my seat (unless of course it's time for lunch). I was my crankiest self! I needed my stress reliever-- but I didn't find time to sketch; Aries is probably too busy; and the other one is untouchable at work. Sheez! I was even cranky during the 4am Sessions and I had to say excuses. Then I had to switch YM statuses everytime-- something like "Bawal Makulit" or "Bawal mangwestyon ng boss na mainit ang ulo. Nakamamatay".

Then my boss decided that we should chat and grab some brunch at McDonald's on Tuesday morning. As we walk towards the door, just out of the blue I suddenly turned and there he was! Wow, it's the first time that I haven't seen him in a week this year. And I was feeling bad about not being able to say "hi" at that time... But that's not it. I just wanted to mention that. Hehe

So we're having our brunch (and my 14th hour at the office) and talking about activities, initiatives, motivation... the works. Then I signaled that we ought to go because my brain is going comatose. But before I could stand from my seat, he took this brown envelope we claimed from the reception area, and took out two sets of documents... lo and behold!

It says that the "OIC" in my title has been gone since the first day of the year. And that I'll be getting this amount of basic salary and this amount of allowance. And another document listed my job description. Wow! I'm going to get paid!

I'm now officially the Lead Trainer of my account. [insert big grin]

It's just like the previous "offer letter moments" that I've experienced before. They always come in unexpected moments-- when I'm always grouchy! Haha... God certainly has a way to cheer me up hehe ;-)

Happy New Year to me! *cartwheel!!!*
