Tagaytay Highlands recently held a special massage day for moms in honor of Mother’s Day.
Moms were treated to a relaxing back or foot massage, and while they wait, sumptuous treats were served for their enjoyment. Their families are also in on the fun, kids and dads got artistic and made Mother’s Day cards and popsicle stick picture frames.
People you work with can remain just that… no interactions whatsoever about things outside the office cubicle.
When I first started my work in the company I am with right now, I thought to myself, “what if nobody there likes me? Do I have to eat lunch by myself everyday?”
I admit, that going to work isn’t supposed to be a social event. I’m supposed to, well, work… and I’d get paid to do that. So why the apprehension and the stress that what if the people wouldn’t like me?
It’s hard moving on a daily basis with mundane tasks and an overload of information, especially without social contact. Imagine working from 9 to 5 without having anyone to talk to, or eat lunch with, or go home with.
I’d go crazy.
Friends make everything seem lighter than they really are. Admittedly, the thing that keeps me going everyday are the people I work with. When you ask me the question, “Why are you working here?” My answer would be, “Because my friends are here.”
I go to work not just for money… but because I have people I want to see, laughs I want to share, and memories I want to create and keep.
Luckily, after a year, I found friends that might just be for keeps.
I covered the Grand Launch of Sycamore Heights, the latest development in luxurious Tagaytay Highlands.
The latest addition to Lakeside Fairways boasts of world class amenities, and with its Asian Contemporary theme, the best time to launch was during the Chinese New Year.
It was a night of green elegance, with the house designs made by architectural firm, L.V. Locsin and Partners used the terrain of Tagaytay to their advantage and created a living space that perfectly melds contemporary design and eco friendliness.
We had a string quartet from the esteemed Phil. Philharmonic Orchestra to play soothing music all throughout the night.
Delicious food from Banana Leaf! I especially liked the awesome Prawn balls and cheese! Heaven!
Check out the give away! See that knot? We did that! It’s called a Chinese good luck knot and it’s supposed to give you, well, good luck. I have one in my office desk.
My first company christmas party happened last night at the Belle Grande Sales Pavilion in Pasay. The theme was Las Vegas, and the first thing that came to my mind was the opulence the theme brings.
The food was delicious!
I had steak, fish fillet in lemon butter sauce, paella, and vegetables.
There was an awarding ceremony for employees that have spent over 10 to 20 years in Belle, to which the president and the Vice chairman presented.
There was a lanai outside the pavilion, where the band is playing.
Newbies were asked to prepare a presentation for everyone. It took us two nights to prepare, but it came out great, somewhat! You can’t beat talent! Hahaha!
There was also a competition, where one of our own in Marketing won the first prize!
There was a photobooth! I love photobooths!
After all the formalities, the presentations, and the announcement of the winners of the major prizes (which I was one of the winners, yay!) oh and the announcement of the ehem ehem bonus, it’s time to parteh!
It was so much fun! I am not comfortable dancing but last night I thought, what the hell! Hahaha!
I attended the ribbon cutting for the Tagaytay Highlands Photo Exhibit at their showroom in Podium.
The photos highlight the most significant moments in the 17 years of Tagaytay Highlands. From the photos, you’ll see why Tagaytay Highlands is considered to be the premiere luxury destination in Tagaytay.
And of course, the food! Super delicious, first time to eat a quiche!
Chicken Nuggets!
I have no idea what this is, but it looks good!
Overflowing Merlot.
I also had the opportunity to meet Jerry Tiu (aka Chris Tiu’s father) and Joselito Consunji, our Chief Operating Officer.
Looking forward to more events like this! Awesome.
22 years in the world and I'm still a child.
A myriad of photographs, anecdotes, rants, and raves about anything in my life.
