Two years ago.

Natapos yung ACTION training namin. (Thanks Hannah for posting, naalala ko tuloy mag-post din tonight :D)

- nagkaalaman kung sino talaga ang number one. (Di ba Ryan? Di ba Ren? :D)
- sumali si Lany sabay na-dissolve ang Shukudai Group.
- natapos ang araw-araw na pagtatangka ni Marci sa buhay naming lahat. (Lagi na lang nya kasi kaming tinatanong kung gusto na raw ba namin mamatay.)
- nagyosi kami ni Sel.
- nadapa si Daniel.
- sexy pa si Hannah. (Sexy pa rin naman ngayon e, mas sexy lang dati hahaha :D)
- nagsimula ang kabaklaan ni Roda.
- naging hearthrob ng office si Marge, Mitzi, at Val.
- nag-break kami ni Ren. (Graduate na e. That's such cliche a.)
- at, nainspire ng graduation speech ni Amiel ang titulo ng post sa baba. Written almost exactly two years ago.

Yatto owarimashita.

Finally, it's finished. Graduated from training today as part of AWS Action Batch 7 - the batch, according to one of the managers, with the best Nihongo graduation speeches. Yeah. Checked my Friendster horoscope:

The Bottom Line
This is a time of extreme clarity -- what you are sensing is completely accurate.

In Detail
New Year's isn't the only time of year appropriate for making resolutions ... you are allowed to make a change in your life whenever you want to. So if you are itching to turn over a new leaf, today is a good day to start. You shouldn't wait any longer if you feel the urge. This is a time of extreme clarity -- what you are feeling or sensing is completely accurate. Your worries have substance, and you should do what you feel like you need to.

---------------------------------------------

Sakto men. Basta ang gaan talaga ng feeling. Parang yung lahat ng pasakit ng nakaraang limang buwan... natanggal na. I mean, alam kong it's gonna be tougher from here on kase hindi na kami trainees and shit, real work na, pero still... ang sarap.

I guess it's always fun to graduate. Especially if it's on time. Haha.

Wow. The me two years ago sounds exactly the same as the me now. Except the me now knows exactly what "tougher from here on" means already. Shit I sooo don't want to go to work tomorrow. :(

Anyway. Last Sunday nagkita-kita ang kalahati ng batch namin - hulaan mo kung saan - e di sa may Osakajo Koen. Astig di ba? Natupad yung wish namin na nabuo kasama si Honda-sensei... na balang araw, maga-aishimashou kami sa Osakajo Koen. Who's the biatch now, sensei?!? Wahahahahaha XD In fairness pito kami nun a.

Wala. Grabeng nakakamiss lang. Dati Action lang pinuprublema namin e, alamuyon. Kunwari natatakot sa exam, aaral ng Nihongo, pakyut lang nang pakyut sa opis... tas ngayon... natatakot sa bugs, aaral ng Nihongo ng bug report, pakyut lang nang pakyut sa opis... okey ganun pa rin. Pero! Iba pa rin yung kasama mo yung batchmates mo shempre. Ang gulo ko no.

Point is, dalawang taon nang tapos ang training. At namimiss ko na ang batchmates ko. :(
Love you batchmates, dinner naman tayo kung kelanman. :)
