To top off my saddest week in The Fort, Kirk and I composed a “cheer”, not to deliberately cheer myself up, but partly to be used for welcoming the company newbies on Monday. Kind of a company pakulo with prize for the best floor level with the warmest welcome. And we could not think of anything else, given the two days heads-up, but to deliver a scripted cheer. I know I said to our CTO (big boss) that I’m not in the mood to produce something (sapilitan talaga).. but, you know, sometimes God wants to tickle us in various unexpected ways. Eh ang hirap pala talaga mag-pa-bibbo… naaatasan biglaan. It took us several recording takes before coming up with a decent (cross that out) duet and before we could finish the last song, “We are the Champions”, we would always belt out a very hearty laugh! Pavaroti in a rollercoaster naman kasi ang peg nitong si Kirk! Feel na feel ang lyrics! Hahaha! Ganun ata talaga when you try to feel the lyrics of this song very deeply.
WELCOME TO FOURTH FLOOR!

These are what we call “moodoo dolls” (‘coz they’re moody). We sew them at the Stuffed Dolls Workshop we attended last July (I think). Mine’s the emo one on the right. No, if you see the ponytail at the back side you’ll know it’s a girl. Hehe.
