Mom just waltzed into my room, asking me what you should put on a cake that she's going to give to somebody on the brink of retiring.

"Enjoy the rest of your days!"

"Happy retirement!"

"Good luck!"

...That's a really good question.

Um. Anyway. First day on the job, ONOZ! D: D: D:

[EDIT, 1:35 PM] ...Yep. I'm here. At the Philippine STAR office. Yes, I've been here since 1pm. Yes, I don't know how to measure the time it takes to get from my house to Manila. @_@

Have encoded three articles, learned how to upload stuff to the server, and am slowly learning how to use a Mac. From here on, I report on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I think I'm classified as someone doing an OJT, so I don't get paid, but I wasn't really looking for pay in the first place.

So far, it's been a good first day. [/EDIT]

[EDIT, 12:26 AM] It's only in a newspaper office where arriving early is frowned upon. XD From henceforth, I'll come just on time.

Much love to my blockmates, and everyone else who was there tonight. Best of luck and joy to y'all as you march down the aisle later this month.

OMG INTERNET EXPLORER GREW SMARTER. *abusing tabs* [/EDIT]

You're now a competitor! Kidding.

Are you ghost-writing for any specific section or will you be an all-around type of...erm...ghost-writer?

[izkariote.livejournal.com]

I think I'll be doing the all-around thing. I'm working right now, actually. @_@ *the idiot who came in, like, more than an hour early* *her house is FAR and she can't estimate the time!*

Damn, you guys use a Mac? Over here in Intramuros we're stuck in the mid-nineties. I KID YOU NOT.

*lolz* I was confused at the Mac system for a good fifteen seconds or so. By the end of this OJT, though, I think them white boxes and I will be pretty famliar with each other. X3

'Good Luck' sounds uh, Good! I actually like 'Enjoy the rest of your days' too. ^^

As for you, best of luck on the job!

I ended up not making any suggestions to my mom since I wasn't sure whether the person would get insulted by any of the phrases I had in mind or not. XD

Thanks~ <3

*glomp, squeeze*

Before anything, ask first if the person retiring even has a sense of humor to begin with. I like the first line. >3

MWF. .__. Arr. I wanna watch you work!

Congratulations, I think. o: Or... or... Um. "Have fun!"?

Tis the automatic challenge for anyone who claims to be politically correct in all things, I think. D:
