Berks Connects

Today... we'll be talking about my college friends whom I missed so much since we seldom see each other because of work and everything... I've been w/ them for almost 3yrs now and we've been through a lot of trials, simpleng away, tampuhan blues (like "galit ako iyo! di tayo bati!" talks hihihi!) but still, going strong ang samahan ng tropa. San ka pa?!

OLIVENE: First on the list is my bestfriend syempre. She was with Destiny Internet (patay ka Bing -hunting ka na ng mga subs na galit sayo hehehe!) before, but now she'll be starting at BPI this April 2006. She loves/hates her job though... ang gulo noh?! Very close kami nito kasi we leave in the same house (their house to be exact). Eldest daughter ako -says Papa Chito. Look at her pics sa friendster, super creative siya. Makalog yan and clown ng grupo namin. "Gills!" -she'll kill you if she hears you say this to her. I love her so dearly kasi kabiyak ng pwet ko 'to! Harhar! Naging super close lalo kami dahil sa thesis nila ni Mheng kasi dumaan sa trial ang friendship namin those days... but still here we are holding on, diba Bing? I Love you girl!

Charmaine: Speaking of thesis... this is "Mheng" (for short) partner siya ni Oli sa thesis nila noon. Me and Mheng get along very well kasi we have lots talaga in common as in. Like what? we have the same birthday. Oh diba? Galing noh? Small world. One time, foundation day sa school namin, parehas kaming umiiyak. Reason? Secret! I always make a joke kasi she works in Cubao as a Currecny Processor w/ MoneyGram. Maka-magulang 'to eh. Masunurin sa parents, ayan tuloy lahat ng sahod nya nasa parents nya rin. Hehehe! Joke!

Candy: When we talk about Mheng, syempre included si "Khen". Why? Kasi mag-bestfriend sila, ewan ko lang ngayon ha. Sad to say, wala siyang friendster acct. Pero ka-chat ko siya most of the times pag off ko w/ Oli. Anyway, Khen is very jolly and katuwang ko 'to sa pagiging sira-ulo minsan (minsan lang naman ha). Kitra nyo naman ang pic nya diba? Wala kais siyang matinong pic sa files ko eh. Skels, there's another name. Skinny kasi siya, but I believe that she gain weight na daw. Hehehe! She's working right now I think. Pero the last time wa talked kasi she just left P&G eh and I think she's applying for a work right now. Sana Khen makakita ka agad ng work.

Anjella: So when we talk about Khen, there's "Jhellai" as we call her naman (connection? wala lang.. para masabi lang connected sila, bakit ba!). This girl is very very very very fashionista. She loves Purple kaya if you got the chance to visit her page, puro mild color pero majority of the colors is Purple. I call her "Kambal" for many reasons kasi she and I have many things in common like... ahhm... like... like what ba? Basta marami! We always teased her and Sheryl kasi parehas silang wala pang bf since birth -hala! pangalandakan daw ba? ahihihi! Jhellai is working w/ Trumpets right now. Lagi yan nag-tetext sa akin saying na "Ang sarap magtrabaho pag katabi mo si Christian Bautista.." -- mang-ingit daw ba? Hehe! Look at her pic naman diba? Bongga ang lola mo diba? Mega edit ito ng friendster acct nya. Hehe! Btw, sa kanya galing si Sparky, our loving pet ni Olipot na hawak nya sa picture.

Sheryl: Speaking of Sheryl... she's in California right now. After graduation, she was able to work for I don't remember probably almost 6-9mos I think w/ HP but since her family resides in States, she followed them there na. We missed her katangahan minsan and her pagkashunga2x but she always have clever suggestions that sometimes make us think "Oo nga noh?--". Pagdating sa kakikayan, parehas sila ni Jhellai. Anyway, I know that she's happy w/ her career right now, pero alam namin na miss nya na kami. Sheryl dela Peña, umuwi ka na dito! Waahh! miss ka na namin. Nung nanood ang barkad ng FD3 feeling namin kasama namin si She sa movie house kasi kamukha nya yung lead actress don. Sabi ni She parehas daw kasi sila na may sided bangs daw. Akalain mo pati yun naisip din nya? Hehe!

Bryan Christian: Talk about kikay, si Bry ang una siyempre. Ang "Dyosa ng Grupo" and the richest of all.You'll be amazed to what this boy can do. He loves to watch UAAP, not because he loves basketball, its because he loves the players. Go Animo La SALLE! Me and Oli enjoyed watching the games once when he treated us out, super saya! Bry -as we call him, is working right now w/ Sitel -patay ka Bry, hunting ka nila, joke! In a year, 2x na siya na-pro-promote sa job! See? He's so blessed w/ his career, sana ganon din sa lovelife, noh Bry? Hehehe! Basta we'll always be here for you no matter what. Kahit minsan ikakapuyat namin gagawin namin kasi we're friends, charot!


Resalyn: Partner ni Bry sa thesis ay si "Res" -for short, who has a boyfriend right now reason why we seldom as in seldom hear or see her. After graduation, we asked her to go out not for gimik but to look for a job. Lagi siyang wala sa grupo kasi kesyo busy and all. Oli always say na may CHEQUE BOOK naman siya kaya no need to look for a job. Hehehehe! Magaling daw kasing mag-kick-back sa tuition fee noon. Right now, I don't know where Resa is... basta alam namin, she's still w/in the our planet. --earth calling Resa! Paramdam ka naman jan di yung puro lovelife nalang. But I think Res isa working righ tnow at Canon sa SM North. Sa wakas may work ka na. Ubos na siguro ang kayamanan mo noh? Joke!

Johnna Paula: Speaking of lovelife... Naku si "Beh"... Simply unique in style. Ako lang tumatawag ng Beh sa kanya kasi I don't like calling her Johnna like others do (haba kasi eh) hehehe! One thing I know about Beh is that she'll do anything just to be w/ the person she loves most. She'll give up everything, but if her happiness is at stake, damn! You'll feel the loneliness not thru her face but only in her eyes and thru text kasi 5-9 part ng messages and mababasa mo. Hehe! Right now, Johnna is training now in Link2Support and I'm praying na sana, dumating yung point na di lang siya maging happy sa career nya, kung di sa lovelife narin. Basta Beh gaya kay Bry, nandito lang kami for you no matter what, lalo na ngayon na unlimited ever na ang Globe diba? Magsawa ka kakatext sa akin and for sure I'll reply.

Ma.Cristina: Johhna and "Tina" -whose one of US, were pakners in crime during OJT days and thesis days din. Last name of Johnna is the middle name of Tina. Oh diba, connected? Tins and I work in the same building because we work for the same company -for now (I might resign this next coming weeks, joke!). Tina and I started with a bad start, but we were able to work it out. Now, we're even closer than before since we helped each other sa work. Guys... sorry kayo jan -she's taken as well. I'm so happy kasi you're under Globe Sol na.. ang ayoko lang eh napunta ka ulit kay -- joke! baka may makabasa nito na ka-team mo ngayon baka mag-chuchu pa. Lagot ako, hehe!

Nas: Also taken, "Nas" our moderator of budz_batch04 yahoo groups. One time, we have this outing at Laguna wherein he holds the video cam, became our 1st ever director. Creator of SURBIBORS IN LAGUNA-TAGAYTAY Challenge. Harharhar! Girls, sorry... he's taken. Won the heart of Karen. Nas is a Business Consultant in NSE. Business minded kasi siya kaya kita nyo naman naka-adventure na ang lolo mo. Keep it up Nas. We're proud of you.

Karen Joy: Here's "Naynay" or "Kako" sa group. Look a like ko 'to nung unang pasok ko sa grupo. I'll tell you one story about us. Foundation day non, I knew her then but I haven't met Nas that time. We were selling kikay kits on our booth, and I was kinda fixing the things when someone lay on my shoulders asking "Magkano yan?" -I was so shocked kasi super close sa face ko yung face nung guy... answering (w/my big shocked eyes) "ahh... di ko alam eh..." and siguro na-realized nung guy na I'm not what he thought I was, he went over to the "REAL KAREN" and then Kako asked Nas "..nagkamali ka noh?" -hehehe! Bloopers noh? Karen works w/ CIS-Meralco.

Ruby Rose: Hay naku! Eto ang pinaka-weird sa grupo. She's been through a lot probably why sometimes, di namin alam kung normal na tao parin siya or hindi... joke! We all call her "Ombs". Laki ng house nitong girl na 'to. We all used to hang-out sa house nila kasi they have billiards and big TV sa rooftop nila + basketball ring. Kulang nalang swimming pool eh. Ruby will be flying to Canada soon -diba Ombs? hehe! But for now she's working as an Int'l Relations Assistant of Axis Global Technologies. Wag nyong isnabin ang beauty nitong girl na to kasi super lucky nya sa lovelife ngayon. Hehe! No guys, you can't have her number kasi she's taken na rin (Oo, babae yan noh! Loko kayo ha!) -joke!

Paul Gregory: Next to Ombs for being autistic and all, ito pa isa sa grupo namin na medyo may sablay... Palibhasa only child kaya sobrang tahimik siya and siya yung tipong laging may lakad sa grupo. He's very active sa church activities simply because his parents does it also. He has this gf na laging sinasabi pero never pa namin nakita yung girl na yon. Right now, I don't know where he's working right now and I also don't know kung may work siya ngayon. The last text I got from him was asking for our country's prayers. Makabayan na maka-diyos pa!

Conrad: Consy I believe work in a call center... I'm not sure though w/c one pero alam ko parang sa Amber something ata. Next to being Godliness, Con I believe has a calling from above, pero ang alam ko di na ata matutuloy since he's working nga right now. It's been months I haven't seen him though. I wish him happiness in life and good career path as well. Putcha! pang-birthday wish... hehehe!

Raquel and Jeff: These two are a couple from college years upto present. They are happily married and they have baby AJ w/ them to keep and love forever. We visit them every year at least kasi halos lahat sa amin, Ninang and Ninong ni AJ. Hehe! Grabe ngayon ang laki na ni AJ.
