Last Friday (June 3), our office bade farewell to two dear colleagues (Marianne and Mike) as they had their last day with us. Maryan had just enrolled in the UP College of Law but she vowed to go back every once in a while to have lunch or dinner with us.

Maryan gave a speech about how thankful to our bosses for everything that she had learned (and for the free Internet as well). She even called on some people for some messages and I told them that I had already known Maryan before as an orgmate and I consider myself lucky to meet her again as an officemate. Not surprisingly, Wilma shed some tears and was speechless when asked to say a few words for Maryan.

Mike reminisced about the early days of Intelligraph and narrated how the company had changed over the year. He originally joined the company as DES, was assigned as a writer and then returned to being a DES member again.

To celebrate the occasion, our boss bought a choco mousse cake and spaghetti from Red Ribbon. Of course, I was the resident photographer of the event.

They planned to have dinner and play billiards after work but I had to pass since I had to attend the post-climb in the UPM tambayan.
