It was a
bit crazy full day for me. Woke-up at 2:00 A.M. to bake and prepare sweets for
RBAI’s Christmas Party. Yup, the bank orders baked goodies and sweets from me,
every time they have celebration. Done with all the orders’ nitty gritty by
9:30 A.M. After the entire kitchen works, I went straight to Poblacion, the
town’s center for a salon time. It is a must do this time, for the longest time
I been planning to do it but then I just don’t have the determination to do it
because I’d rather stay home and sleep. But because it’s the time of the year,
when gatherings and social activities comes next after another, it’s must to
pamper oneself. I had my hair wash, hot oil and blow dry to last till the
evening activities that day.

By 12:30,
I am done with it; I waited for Papa pick me up, to attend RBAI’s regular BOD
meeting. I have been with RBAI’s Corporate Secretary for more than 2 years, and
it was quite a challenge at the start as I learn the ropes of dealing with the
world of banking. Until I finally look forward for the monthly meetings because
of the wisdom I get from my seniors. Our BOD meeting lasted until past 5:00
P.M. That gave enough time to change and rest for RBAI’s 22nd
Anniversary and Christmas Party.

Off to RBAI's BOD meeting |
It was a
denim party. Everyone came donning the theme of the party. Good thing that I
don’t have to arrange the desserts because the caterer did arrange the
desserts. The party started with a prayer followed by a dinner, then the parlor
games that were very fun because the oldies (stockholders and directors) were
so game playing with the employees.
I love to
share the message of Sir Angelo, the Chairman of the Board, that above all the
core values of RBAI the most important of all is “that we believe in God.” He
used a handkerchief to illustrate how God works in our life. He let a hanky
stand on its own, it stand on its own because of the hand that slowly put it
down and guide it to be a able to stand before that hand let go of it. God
indeed is the mighty hand that guides and helps us stand where we are today. It
is not us but GOD alone who can make all things possible. I feel so blessed to
be part of RBAI’s family.

Having
this business for our family is blessing, and having these people as family is
more than just a blessing but a heavenly treasure.
The night
ended past 10:00 in the evening, with Papa having a few drinks and Mama getting
pissed knowing that he will drive us home means I need to drive that
night. I feel grateful and blessed for this day. It made me see that with God’s
guidance we can do a lot, that we can never be too busy but we will have enough
time to every good intention that we have.
