I had to work on-site today and I started my day bright and early enough. I booked a ride to the office. I got there fine and I had just set up my stuff. I just focused on my major tasks today and pretty much had lunch out with my coworkers. During this time, I also opened up to someone that it's been getting difficult since I have a bit of money troubles and that I've been giving them so much money since September. It was kind of a heated discussion and it went on as I was having lunch out with coworkers, but thankfully it kind of simmered down when I told them my upcoming plan for it. Still, it was fun and having my coworkers there lightened up my mood since they were just teasing another coworker. After lunch, we just went back to our respective desks and I focused on my tasks for the day. In the evening, we met up with one other coworker in the office and decided that today would be the day us 3 got ramen together. I was happy to hear it since I wanted to have dinner out with my coworkers anyway, and eating out after work is the reason why I like going to the office in the first place. We decided to have ramen in Ramen Ron in Rockwell, and they even teased me to book a ride to Ramen Ron in BGC, but we still got a ride to Rockwell. I eventually got us a ride there and we were eventually there after a while. I forgot the name of my dish, but it was their best-seller supposedly. I ordered a side of noodles, too, since I expected that I'd eat a lot. We ate for a bit and I'm not sure if my coworkers liked it, but one definitely didn't. They also got made fun of because they didn't know that the paste would be similar to gochujang. I mostly laugh at it and laugh at him for making that mistake, but after that we just walk and talk until we get to our next stop, which was Wildflour Cafe. It was just in time that we got there because they had their usual 50% off pastries. I managed to snag the last cookie, which was a red velvet cookie, and it was funny because the girl behind me was supposed to get that. I visibly heard her cry out a bit when I told the server that I would get that cookie. I got one more pastry and then we just ate inside the restaurant to eat it. After a while, we were directed outside because the indoor seats were reserved for diners, and we were directed out by a nice waitress. I tell my coworkers that the waitress looked pretty and sweet and they tease me to her. After that, we just talk amongst ourselves and I got to open up to my coworker about my dating life since he didn't know about it. I told him how I liked this girl and how I gave her a Google Pixel, and then how I don't like her anymore. Then they get into this heated argument about meeting up in Cubao, but how their stories differed from each other. It was a funny argument to just be a listener in. We spend quite a bit of time just talking amongst each other. Eventually, my coworker had to leave and we booked a ride back to the office because we left our stuff there. My coworker books a ride this time and we eventually get back to the office. I just pack up my stuff and then my coworker and I sit next to our coworker and I open up about the girl. They shared their story and experience with that person and it surprised me that they agreed to be my wingman, even though I didn't really have any plans of approaching that girl. They tease me about that girl for a bit, but eventually my coworker and I decide to leave since it was getting late. For the rest of the evening, I just walked with my coworker and accompanied him back to the hotel they're staying at since I promised I'd walk with them if they also went back to the office. We just talked and I mostly asked them about work stuff and work drama. I just wanted to get my steps in and we eventually got to their hotel. I booked a ride home after that and just chilled for the time being.
