Lost and Not Found

I lost my cellphone today... and it wasn't even mine. And now, I have to pay for it. Dammit. My officemates and I had a lunch out at Glorietta and I left it in the taxi that we were riding. After a few minutes of trying to contact my number, the phone went 'unavailable'. Somebody probably got it already and obviously, he or she is not planning to return it anymore. As expected. In a country such as ours, I'd be too naive to even think or hope for a second that somebody would return it to me.


I've just realized losing a cellphone is such a hassle. Since the cellphone and the SIM was not mine (company's), I had to file an incident report and make the necessary requests of having it disconnected and barred. Mind you, I also had the actual phone unit barred just so whoever stole it will not be able to use it. Too bad. He/She will have to spend at least 200-300 bucks first to have it unbarred in Greenhills or wherever. I also had to request for a replacement SIM which will probably take a couple of days to process, and which would also mean no free monthly load for me anymore. Boohoo...Hassle talaga, not to mention having to have my Smart Money account de-linked and re-linked to another MIN. Now, I don't even to know what my new W-PIN is anymore.



Well at least I've learned my lesson. A pricey one at that. Hehe It's okay at least someone's happy because he/she got a new cellphone. I just hope his or her good karma wouldn't run out.

The Big Tweeny Four

We went up to Tagaytay yesterday to celebrate my (and Candice's) birthday. We left Manila at 10 am and arrived at around noon just in time for lunch. Lunch was really good. We had a full sumptuous set meal at Antonio's with the nice scenery backdrop all around us. The weather was also extra cooperative that day...airy, breezy, and not too warm. (Mental note: great 'date' place) Oh, and I also have to mention that I like their clean 'homey-like' comfort rooms. Hehe


Lunch ended at around 3pm already. I thought the day was perfect. Well almost perfect if not for the ride home, which took almost 3 hours! Edsa was in full force traffic which is unusual for a typical Saturday. It seemed like the entire town was out last Saturday. But nevertheless, my birthday ended with a huge :)
