Being a newbie at work, Raft3r has a lot on his plate.
If they ask you to do something, you oblige. No questions asked.
If they tell to jump, you say how high.
So when a company sponsored bowling tournament was announced, guess who participated wholeheartedly?
Yes, Raft3r volunteered to play.
Pakikisama (camaraderie) is still a highly regarded Filipino trait in the workplace. Peer pressure is one big fat bitch.
I haven’t bowled since high school. This became very evident during the tournament. Raft3r was immediately tagged as the good looking kid who couldn’t bowl.
Redemption came when after three games, I finally found my rhythm. Strikes and spares were my new best friends.
Bowling is the only sport I know where one can drink beer while playing. And we still wonder why it is just an exhibition game in the Olympics?

buti ka pa bowling lang. i remember two company christmas parties ago i was the newest guy in the company, a week old to be exact, and they made me dance willie revillame's boom tarat tarat in front of everyone. haha.
lol @ above comment!! ^o^
I love bowling. Not very good at it either. My goal every time i play is to at least reach a hundred hehehe...
I feel your pain; it sucks being a newbie. They got me drunk on my third day which resulted in my being three hours late the following day—which was, unfortunately, my orientation day.
thescud, It sucks. Ano?
laieesha, Yeah. A hundred. Yun din goal ko, eh. Hehe
andy briones, Nyahaha. That blows.
he he he I remember the production number every christmas here in the embassy, all the newbies have to dance...yikes...i just want to forget that experience...80's pa ang theme...yuck
I had my first and last bowling experience during my college days. PE 3 namin, I got a grade of 2.25.
Hirap, kinakaliwa ko kasi. hehe

ay peborit ko ang bowling na yan. parati kami dati sa may magallanes para mag bowling at manginain ng pizza. mas marami sempre ang pizza breaks, haha
kengkay, Magallanes? Naku. Malapit lang ako don, ah!
I only played bowling once. Di ako masyadong nag-enjoy kasi mas magaling sa 'kin ang kasama ko.
And honestly, I found bowling boring. Kaya siguro dapat may beer na iniinom para enjoy kahit papano;)
wendy, Let's drink to that!
Parang lyrics ng isang Debbie Gibson yung "If you say jump, I'll say how high". Hahaha.
jas, Nyahaha. Sorry, ha. Di ko na inabutan yon. Si Britney kapanahunan ko, eh. Hehe
Mas matanda ka kaya sa akin... siguro maka-Tiffany ka kaya "nakalimutan" mo na si Debbie Gibson, ano? Hehehe.
