Technically hindi siya useless, pero niregaluhan ako ng bawang.

Nag-sort of white elephant exchange gift kami, bawal lumagpas ng Php50 yung gift so may nagbigay sakin ng bawang sa loob ng box ng Logitech mouse.

At di umabot yung price ng bawang, so dinagdagan niya ng barya pampuno sa kulang.

White elephant talaga ang best part para sa ayaw sa mga Christmas party. Ginagawa namin pang-asar yun sa mahilig sa party by giving useless gifts na nakakainis matanggap pero pasok naman sa theme.

Pero dun sa final na, dahil malaki ang budget, pinipili namin “ibigay” yung gifts na possibleng sarili lang namin ang makakaappreciate para pwede isteal at di masteal ng iba. Ang pinakanakakatawang part yung yung typical mag-isip, na magbibigay ng sa tingin nyang best gift possible pero laging pinagpapalit ng iba kasi pangit. Naalala ko may isang gift giver na umiyak dahil di na appreciate gift nya, pinagtawanan pa yung nakakuha. Secret naman kung sino nagbigay, kaso umiyak. Alam na.

Ako yung nagbigay ng 2nd worst gift. Gusto ko sana isteal kaso nakakatawa makitang naiinis yung ofcmate na kinakainisan mo, di ba? Bumili na lang uli ako for myself ng gift na binigay ko. Haayy…pre-pandemic memories.

Picture frame.

To be fair, mejo uso pa ang physical pictures nung niregaluhan ako nun, but I don’t really display physical photos.

Wireless mouse na need ng AA battery. Mukha pati pag one time bumagsak di na agad gagana.

Sana may setting to scale all app fonts altogether. In-adjust ko rin isa isa. Parang wala akong nakita for the comment editor.

Not sure if it’s the one you’re referring to pero may setting sa General called “Base Font Size”. Yun ginalaw ko and minor tweaks na lang sa rest ng fonts.

I guess this is my PEBKAC moment because that’s exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Nakakatamad gumalaw but I know I need to go home para makapagpahinga ako ng maayos. I mean, hindi masarap matulog sa office pantry. Lol

Buti pinapayagan kayo matulog sa pantry. At hindi ba challenge umidlip dun kasi maingay? Foot traffic, mga kumakain/chikahan, and maybe a TV, depending sa setup?

Actually hindi pwedeng matulog sa pantry. Dinapuan lang ako ng katamaran at that moment. We have snug rooms sa office pero you can only stay and nap there for a few hours, but not full on sleep and essentially live in the office (may shower rooms din kami).

I wish all the things in life I want to do can be done with just time with no money needed to be involved. Time isn’t always money unlike what they say. A lot of quotes and sayings just sometimes don’t always apply, or even worse, some just put me off. Some are just very reductivist.
