Hallmark

I was sifting through one of my memory boxes when I came across a card I received from my research assistant just before she moved out of here. After more than a year, it's still heartening to read the things she wrote even if more than half of it's just random rambling and silly laughs :)

Hi sir,

Ang girly ba ng card? Haha. I'm zorreh. Ang pangit pa ng sulat. Haha

Hi Sir. Honestly hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaction mo sa card na to pero here goes! Ang dami pang sinasabi haha. But ito. Yung pag-alis ko sa *****, ikaw ang nagpahirap ng decision ko. Hehe. Kasi alam kong hindi ka na masaya at burned out ka na - I couldn't bear leaving you. Naks. Haha. Pero di nga. Kasi yon. Ang hirap naman magsabi sayo!

Basta. Ano bang sinasabi ko? Haha. Thank you lang, sir. Thank you sa 1 year na natiis mo ako haha. Sa patience mo at sa knowledge na na-impart mo. Tingin ko, sakto lang na umalis akong **** 'cause I can't do what you do haha. Anyway, thanks talaga sir, kasi kahit ako iyong me title na "assistant", minsan ikaw pang nag-aassist sakin!

Kaya pasensya na rin sir, siguro most of the time super "Bad trip naman o!" ka na. Hehe. Tsaka sa pangungulit ko - both work and non-work related. Mamimiss ko yung minsang random nonsense na naiisip natin haha.

Ay! Eto! Sir hehe mamimiss kita super. Yung tahimik ka lang sa cubicle mo, minsan kumakanta, mapang-asar, at deep mag-isip - lahat yan mamiss ko! Kahit ang hirap mo basahin, I like to think of you as my friend - sana ako rin ganun sayo. Hehe. Kung kelangan mo ng makakausap, andito lang ako! Pramis! Kung kelangan mo ng makukulit, I'm game! Basta sir (siguro ang reaction mo "EWWW!" Haha) labs na labs kita bilang my 1st

boss ever! Kaya I like to look after you in my own way - ewan ko lang kung nafifeel mo hehe.

Shet, mauubos na space. Oh no sir. Is this goodbye? NO. Haha. Basta dapat magkikita pa tayo soon, pag umuwi jowawitz ko, ipapakilala kita! Sir, keep in touch ha? Gusto kitang i-add sa FB kaya lang baka iignore mo lang. Haha. E-mail pa rin kita once in a while! At kukulitin kang lumabas, kasi alam kong mamimiss mo rin ako HEEHEE.

See you soon sir! God bless you always. Alagaan mo sarili mo parati!

Lurve, ***

Nakakainis naman ang liit ng space, pahabol lang!

Balitaan mo ako sa:

(a) job hunting

(b) Health issues

(c) **** people na parati nating pinag chichismisan; at!

(d) Lovelife.

'KAY?!

MWAH!

Hihi, ***

Those thoughts bring sunshine to an erstwhile gloomy day!

I'd bake you a cake of laughter and nonsense, if I could...

Paint you a world of green sky and blue grass, I would...

I'd give you back all the dreams from when you were little, if I could...

If only it would show you how much I truly care, I would!
