missing link

I feel out of sync today.
Someone let me down and it's hard when it's someone you care about.

I used to tell people that I am her friend, not because I needed her but because I want to be there when she needs me. It has been that way since I met her. She was part of my team, a new team in a new account. We were both noisy, we talk and laugh boisterously.
We've only been friends for more than 2 years - not a very long time but enough to wonder where I've gone wrong.
You see, dear blog, I've supported her when I thought she was in bad times. I helped her in times when I thought she needed it. She was also sweet to cheer me up when I feel down or sad. She also taught me the value of saving coz she's very thrifty.
Anyway, I convinced her to join my new company, my new team. It was a bit rough for her getting in. But she succeeded.
I had hopes and dreams for her to grow and develop her career. They all went up in smoke last night. She quit. I don't want to tell the details anymore. Talking about is painful, maybe because I understand her actions and the motive behind them. I guess I she just disappointed me. I trusted her yet she hurt me.
She told me she was sorry. I am sorry too. I guess our friendship won't be the same anymore. It will still be there but broken somehow. I'm gonna miss her.

They say I'm a gadget freak. I'm not.

If you insist, I'd rather call myself phone freak. I love mobile phones. I especially loved the technology when they incorporated music and camera and whatnots.

Ever since 3G phones was introduced to this world, I never could be happy with one phone for more than 6 months. Pathetic? Not really... I just love them! And my phones adore me too. Seriously. Just don't count the one I lost in a cab, it wasn't 3G anyway.

Just like the quarterback in a feel-good movie who seems to date several girls, he'd end up finding his match in an unlikely person. Well, that´s me finding my one true love: the Apple iPhone.

I am so happy with this phone that I swear, I will never buy another one. I can´t describe the feeling when it is in my hands, when I use it to text, call, take snapshots, play music or games, and of course, to surf anytime I want. I´m not advertising iPhone, as if this testimony will entice my friends in buying it. Every experience is different for each person but I guess I can rest now in searching for my soulmate.
