To Johnny B.
Johnny B closed all the deals. He finally made it final. He'll be on terminal leave starting some time soon.
So these are the ten things I learned about Johnny B in the 2 years that we've known each other.
1. He claims to be one well dressed and well groomed person. In short he's a neat freak. He'd rather be dead than be seen with his hair or clothes in disarray. He has the widest array of bath gels and he gets it when I talk about Bath and Body works. Actually, he was the one who introduced me to Bath and Body works. He has a thing about his shoes being clean.
2. He's a Mama's boy. Not the bad kind, he is still after all the man that he is. But one of the most important people in his life is his mom. He shares a friendship with his mother that is strengthened by time and challenges that they faced together.
3. When he's right, he's right. Maybe in that way we are alike. He doesn't give in if he knows that he is right. When his mind is set its set. It's very difficult to sway him. I don't know if he gets pikon when I challenge him. Sometimes I do it, makapang-asar lang. :)
4. He's a health buff. An avid gym goer. He even influenced Backstreet Boy to go to the gym with him. He reads a lot about stuff on how to improve his health.
5. Four girlfriends since I've known him. Enough said about that.
6. He believes in horoscopes. Being both Librans, he believes that we get along well because of the way the stars are aligned. He knows most of the characteristics of the horoscope signs. Hmm... maybe this is his secret to attaining number 5... :D
7. He hates it when his tissue box is squished. See number 1. For that matter, all his things are properly arranged. His files organized.
8. He swears when he's mad. He cusses when he's with the boys. I once heard him giving out a malutong na p***angina because the code he was doing wasn't behaving the way that he expected.
9. His voice changes when he's talking to a girl. It is very noticeable. His voice dips lower, sometimes almost a whisper when he's talking to a girl. Dunno if this is to prevent me from eavesdropping or if it's because of the fact that girls are more attracted to men with lower voices. Again, see number 5.
10. He can be trusted with secret stuff. And he always has a drop of wisdom to share to solve your problem.
To Johnny B, thanks for being a kuya, a friend and a good boss. Good luck and see you around.
