Last August 10, the USTG Pharma Team went to Market! Market! to play LazerXtreme as one of our team-building activities. It was then followed by a sumptuous dinner at Gilligan's, also in Market! Market!

'Eto na ulit ako at muling bumabangon mula sa pagkakalugmok ng mahabang panahon. Matagal-tagal ko na ri'ng hindi nararanasan ang ganitong pakiramdam. Yung tipong wala kang inaalala at walang pakialam, no worries at all...

I won't try to go against the flow, mas mahihirapan lang ako. I will go with the flow at bahala na kung san ako dalhin nito. Ang mahalaga ay i-enjoy ko ang moment habang inaagos ako nito sa isang lugar na di tiyak ang patutunguhan. Handa ako sa kahit ano. Ginusto ko ito!

It's good to be back! I'm glad I found my "old/bad self" again. Hahaha!!! Alam kong maraming magugulat, may magtataas ng kilay, may magagalit... pero WTF! I will enjoy this journey. Sabi nga sa isang sikat na quotation: "It's not the destination. It's the journey."
