THANKS AND TILL NEXT TIME :)

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

The last 10 years has been an extraordinary journey for me in this extraordinary workplace.

So much has happened, from helping build the SECC factory literally from scratch, to my Katmai ramp support in the beautiful country of Costa Rica, to the Tualatin/Prescott DV challenges, finding a home in the product engineering and yield engineering departments while frontlining key product start-up and yield issues and finally, experiencing first-hand as CMO grew into the bigger and stronger CVAT. These are just some of the milestones throughout the years that I’ve spent here in Intel. It has been nothing less than enriching, and with the help of my managers, mentors, peers, team mates and friends, I’ve been able to grow professionally, as well as personally.

However, it’s time to embark on a new journey. But before I do, I’d like to take time to express my thanks to all of you, who has, in one way or another, kept me grounded yet constantly challenged, armed me with good learnings and sound advice and even throwing my way constructive confrontation or two :) 

More importantly, as I step out of the walls of my cubicle, I know I take with me the parting gift of great friendships. So, instead of goodbye, I say, till next time!

Muchas Gracias. Terima Kasih. Xie Xie. Toda Raba. Cam On. Maraming Salamat. Thank you very much :)

Best Wishes,

Trixy

SWEET ESCAPE - SUMMER ‘07

Monday, April 2nd, 2007

Finally, the office barkada got away to relax for the weekend. To a place where locals apparently refer to as "almost heaven". And indeed it was.


Eagle Point Resort is one of the best resorts I’ve been to so far. It’s far enough from the city. It’s quaint and picturesque. Our room had a breath-taking view of the bay. How lovely it is to wake up every morning with that view. And then there’s Sepoc Island. What a charming little island. And of course there’s the sunset. With the best of company, everything was just right.

We ate, slept, took a dip in the water, went kayaking (while I slept, haha, in the guise of getting a tan), drank, took pictures, ate again, took pictures again, went dipping with baby sharks and fish, went to the pool…

Words are not enough to express all the loveliness and happiness. Pictures are worth a thousand words, after all, so here goes.
