It took a while to think long and hard on what to post for my very first blog. I think the best "firsts" are the ones that you think that are embarrassing during that specific time but when you think about it in the present, you just tend to laugh about it. What each person considers the best all depends on what memories are linked to their firsts. Even though it's relative, I think I have quite a few firsts that are pretty good:

First job: My very first job after graduating college was working for CONVERGYS Tayuman, Metro Manila in year 2005. I was assigned for a technical account that was for AT&T U-verse. Spent like 9 months with them, I had to leave because I thought I was going to go abroad. Unfortunately that did not happened so I went to a different company.

First major purchase with money that you made from your first job: I think I got myself a new pair of shoes, coz the ones that I was using before were really old.

First salary: I use to keep my payslips with CVG but I don’t know where they are now. I think my first pay was around P19,000.00 because they usually give out your first pay after a month so that’s that. Was so happy then.

First well-cooked dish: I think that for breakfast, a proper omelette, with bellpeppers, tomatoes, potatoes and onions.

First restaurant that you remember eating at: TGIF, cliché isn’t it? When you came from abroad and your family wants to eat out, TGIF is the first to go to.

First meal you ordered on your own: I think I was Jolly Spaghetti. On my own. Hahahaha!

First Outfit you come up on your own: OMG! I use to have this blue shiny shirt, elepants and “barko shoes”. That really looked “baduy”!

First time nightout: A bar in Malate! I forgot the name “Aquatico”? I don’t remember. It’s a bar in Malate. I was 15 or 16. Hahaha

First alcoholic intake: Flash. I accidently drunk it at home coz, they usually make that in Libya, like preserved fruits and they add yeast and etc and then they make it like an alcoholic beverage. And they put it in a mineral bottle which has the same color as water. So technically you wouldn’t know if its alcohol or not. Coz it practically looks the same.

First REAL relationship: Leo Andrew Blanco.

First REAL kiss: Real kiss? It was in August 1, 2009.

First breakup: I don’t remember.

First SEX: HA!

Looking back at my list and reading other firsts that are associated with the listed, I realize that I've done a lot of things that others haven't. While all of my firsts were awesome, almost all of them wouldn't have been a best without the people who made them possible and those who experienced them with me. It was the memories that I made with others that made my firsts the best.

Feel free to answer them. Share your list of “MY FIRSTS”, I’d be happy to read them all.
