December 3, 2005 to December 17, 2006. I wonder what happened. Well, I guess we'll just leave it like that - like Jesus' days in the desert, this will be my mysterious year. Ha, ha, ha...

I guess I just didn't have the time, and the motivation, to update and fix this site. Links are still broken, comments remain unanswered, and posts remained drafts. It was a good thing that I remembered my password for blogger.com. I've got a lot of blogs set up back then and I can no longer access them. I forgot my passwords and the email address I've used to retrieve missing passwords have already gone kaput.

Of course, contrary to what I've said earlier, I won't let this year go by unrecorded.

So, in a nutshell...

Jan 2006 - I was busy protecting a friend. It’s a long story and I won't be elaborating further. Anyway, we've already lost contact with each other.

Feb 2006 - Life was miserable knowing that I was the worst performer on my team. Of course, I didn't give up without putting up a fight. Eventually I did give up but I promised myself that I will come back with a vengeance.

March 2006 - We were given a large amount of money as compensation for our hard work at the office. I was busy wasting it on gadgets and nonsense. (Ha, JPs, just in case you get to read this in the future, I got the spelling right! Come to think of it, whenever I see nonsense, I remember you. He, he, he...)

April, May 2006 - What was I doing back then?? All I can remember is DOTA! I had this uncontrollable need to be the best DOTA player - which I can never actually be. Stupid fingers can't even type right. By the way, for all you non-nerd readers, DOTA is an online multiplayer game.

June 2006 - Went to our office-sponsored summer outing in Subic. I got inspired again, finally, after 1 and a half years.

July 2006 - We switched teams at the office and I got under a different manager. Life was sweet. My time for payback has finally come.

Aug 2006 - Bought a second-hand '99 Civic. Got the realization that I am poor and I can't really afford it. Oh, well...

Sept 2006 - Effort. I was aiming for the Quarterly Incentives being offered at the office. Most people think I'm incapable but I myself know that I can achieve anything if I put my mind into it.

Oct 2006 - I was given my most hated task at the office. Handling reviewers was never easy. I was busy, I was tired, I was fearful, I was stressed, and I was unhappy. Adding insult to injury, we joined, and lost, a DOTA tournament.

November 2006 - My car kept on dying on me. Stupid car! I almost always had no money because of you.

December 2006 – Changes, jealousy, reward and hope.

In a nutshell... it was the same old, same old.
