waiting....

as i write this, i'm waiting for the pictures from our zambales outing to be uploaded to my facebook account. i got hit by nostalgia today and i realized that i had not uploaded those pictures to FB (but i do have them in my multiply and FS accounts, haha).

looking at all those pictures, i felt some form of, well, not nostalgia, but regret. that outing was the first and perhaps the only time that the whole quality team of the company (QAs and their leads, from 4 accounts) came together for a whole week end. it was half an outing and half a team building session, because we had an HR rep (angie) with us, and we had some cool activities for the team. these activities aimed at strengthening our bonds with our fellows. i can't forget the iron chef meets amazing race challenge. there's the cake eating contest. and the pinoy henyo game. and of course, my favorite, the tomador challenge, which made me swear off drinking hard liquor forever. haha.

i wonder if this will happen again, now that the quality team's number has been reduced. starting this week, i will be transitioning to another account as QA analyst (not really a change, because i'll be dealing with the same people), but some of us are not within the quality team anymore. some have been moved to ops, others will move to nonvoice accounts. i just wish the kind of fun we had at last year's team building/outing would be repeated. i don't know how, but i wish it would be.
