I didnt realize till now that today, Corporate Closet - The Blog, is one year old!!! SUS! One year old since I first posted this memorandum! I can still remember the inuman that prompted me to write the blog, march 4 to be exact.
Let me put this in perspective. Migs, a dear friend from a few years back, has been telling me about this wonderful SMART PLU's he has been hanging out with the past weeks. He had a hunch that I would 'click' with them. Eventually, Migs set up a dinner activity in Gale with McVie and Gibbs. That turned out to a riotous dinner. I met other bloggers after that.
Then Migs set up the inuman in an Inasal place in QC. Again, Mcvie, Gibbs were there, with another blogger I cannot name! and they were encouraging me to start the blog. Migs suggested something about the corporate world. So CC was born in the Blogosphere!
expect secrets of success (as if), corporate exposes (wish list, actually), gym and badminton (the athletic side), gay catholicism (oxymoronic?), a bit of sex and romance on the side.
Now im looking at all these expectations i listed. Secrets of Success - hardly. Corporate Expose - couldnt bring myself to out other people DIRECTLY, gym & badminton - in passing. Gay Catholicism - once or twice. A bit of sex - LOL. this topic turned out to have the lion's share of exposure! romance on the side - yeah. until ultimately, the romance died.
CC the Blog is truly a journey... a site under development. i struggled with my issues. i bragged about conquests. i wept about lost love. and i opined on SATC and other topics i fancied. i used to be happy to see one comment from a reader. now i see a number of comments from regular readers. and that makes me warm and fuzzy inside. WOW. MY BLOG MATTERS to some people! Thank You!
then there were the podcasts! what started out as a guesting in troikasters became a regular thing through the fabcasters! and boy was i judged, condemned, maligned that first podcast. JOKE!
so in order of appearance, i would like to thank Migs, my classmate, my friend! and McVie & Gibbs... and Lobster, AJ, the FABCASTERS! special mention to DC, the first reader whom i met. and consequently other bloggers ive met personally like Onai, GBIC, Tenchu, Dats and others whose names escape me at the moment.
And of course, readers who regularly visit. with special thanks to those who take time out to comment on my musings and a-musings! CC is still on the road. he aint there yet. but even if he doesnt get to where he wants, the journey is already well worth it!

happy 1st anniversary, cc! cheers to more blogging years!
Congratulations! Wow, it's been a year? I've been reading your blog since the middle of last year. You write with maturity and refinement (and with just a right amount of naughtiness) that I find quite appealing (and sexy, hehehe). Hope I can get to meet you one of these days. :-)
Happy Anniblogsary C.C. We should definitely have another coffee date soon. Is Ortigas really not an option for you? Lol.

CC, joint post in person? Hmmm... now I'm curious how that goes. I assume it's simply not just blogging together side-by-side? Hehehe.
Happy Blog Anniversary CC! Here's to more years of blogging and corporate closetness! Charot!
A blog.
A life lived and shared.
A year of bliss, triumphs, failures and sorrows.
A reader apprised, surprised.
A reader inspired.
A life aspired.
Happy Anniversary!!!!
hiya vince. its blogging side-by-side, me on top, sometimes, you on top othertimes, from the rear, or up front, face-to-face, face-to-name your body part. JUST KIDDING! :)
aj, like ko yun corporate closeness!!! or corporate coolness!
Happy first anniversary!!!! Waiiiit. Where are the exotic dancers? I was promised dancers and cake, all I see is the carb and sugar goodness of cake. Hmmmph.
Happy Anniversary, CC. Here's wishing you'd blog from Brisbane one day.
many, many thanks, raffy! nice poetic comment!!!
lobster, pang private party ang exotic dancers. besides, di sila pwede. may trabaho sila... sa hilom. JOKE!
hey quent! thanks! i wish i could blog from down under. who knows? that just might happen sooner than later!
