TOUCHED BASE (With Jason and Anil)

(September 16, 2006)

It’s a hundred days before Christmas. And it’s my beloved Mom’s birthday today. I called her last night in our new home phone number in the Philippines. Anyways.

Yesterday, I got an unexpected phone call from a long lost friend, Jason Campita. We used to work together at PhilamCare in Manila, Philippines. It’s been years since we last talked with each other ever since we resigned (he did first). Jason is one fun person to be with whether in the office or outside of it. Now that he is in L.A. and I’m here in Seattle, it’s Friendster where we were able to “find” each other again and keep in touch. So far I got two hilarious voicemail messages from him since yesterday. I have to even say this because that’s just how funny he is. That even just his voicemail messages would send me laughing out loud.

This morning, another good Indian friend of mine called me up! Anil Hotchandani who is in Japan for five years now, has actually been trying to reach me since my Big 29th Birthday. It was just this day that he finally, finally got a hold of me. It’s great to still hear from him after a couple of years of not having been in touch with each other. We got to know each other when I was still in the Philippines through Richard, a close friend of mine who also worked in Japan with Anil. He’d call me regularly back then and he’s one sweet man. During our conversation earlier, he even invited me to come over to Japan for a vacay! Which is sooo great because it is an interesting place to visit, huh. Well, I got to make plans for that!

See how Friendster and Myspace work wonders to friends who have lost touch with each other. I am just glad to find my long lost friends.

And let me be the first to greet you: ADVANCE MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!
