Annoying

I have to blog about this before I forget. :p

Last New Year's Eve, I was in good mood. I decided to sms a very few 'selected' people to send New Year greetings, the close friends from school and work. Anyway, I browsed thru the phonebook and smsed around 15-20 people. The annoying thing is I got 2 replies which said 'who's this?'

My God! Who's this! I was deleted na in their phonebooks. I didnt bother replying, leave them guessing. All this time I was exerting effort to 'reload' abroad just to keep the Globe sim 'alive'. Effort meaning I have to post reminder every 2 months to reload and to stock Globe call cards --- which I dont really get to use except during the few days of vacation in Manila. The balance had accumulated to almost a thousand that I dont know what to do with it. Main reason why I want to keep it alive is that it's the number listed in a lot of my records in Manila, whether it's clinical, employment, bank, what have you etc. And the other reason is for close friends to reach me.

I was just away for less than a year. It's quite harsh to think that 'physical presence' is a factor for people to remember you. Anyway, I dont blame these two close friends for assuming the number's dead. Probably it's the more sensible thing to assume and probably their fonbooks are too full they have to kick off some numbers :). Who knows if I got tired one day of reloading, it will die eventually. Hope not.
