unplanned 47

Hay, well. Where to start? 

As much I want to have fun or be happy, eh I'm worried lang. Due to that test, I'm waiting na sana di malala yun findings or so.. I hope and pray, that whatever I need to be healed or healthy, I'll do it. =) Especially ngayon na ok na ang work, sked, some things except my computer hehe and a lot more. Life these days for me, has more good than bad. 

Enough of that crap. For now. =)

Birthday month is almost over at may mga nabibirthday pa! hahaha Like Suzie na ngayon pala ang birthday. Happy to her, my classmate and friend sa 4BA1. I'm not sure kung sino may birthday pa until June30. Geez, tama na. But sa family, tapos na lahat kami, as of I know. 

I know that MIA won, mabuti na lang as much I want to root for OKC or MEM eh nasibak. Mabuti na lang, di sumuko si LBJ, grabe na to.. Kung kailan mas mahirap yun kalaban eh lalo lumalabas yun laro niya. Give credit sa tandang Spurs eh after 6 years from their last championship, they are still a powerhouse and I don't know where do they get na magaling ang team nila despite, aging big three na mawawala na isa.. hehe And weird picks or trades na nagwowork sa system ni Pop. 

All I can say, MIA is still the team to beat and once nakuha ni LBJ yun 3rd title, I don't care with Jordan fans.. He's better than Jordan sa individual talent wise ha. hehe But influence sa basketball, nah.. Jordan. hehe Pero siyempre di papayag sila KD, and MEM team. GSW perhaps?

It was fun noong nagbirthday ako onwards, I met CRAP, got some rest pero naging hectice din kasi sa mga birthday with taking care of Gerro na tumira sa min. Mabuti at nacocontrol but of course sometimes, it drains me out. Sobra. Lalo na last week na may OT drive pa, paguwi mo ganun pa, naku.. Help me Lord. hahaha Pero mabuti tapos na. Masaya naman this month despite that setback in the final days. 

Gusto ko bumawi sa Vikings, di pwede yun lang nakain ko! hehe Pero for me, that's the best buffet in town, I know there are a lot pero with that huge selections and delicious ice cream... hehehe Kawawang yakimix, sorry, mas sulit sa Viking! When kaya makakabalik? 

Well, malapit na mapalitan sa wakas itong computer na to. Tanong lang kung ano ang kukunin ko. Budget wise na lang ang question. hehe But well, I'm looking forward to it. Grabe itong Oscar 2013 film fest part 2, ang hahaba ng mga films, mahina 2 hours each film, yun isa, almost 3 hours! Dammit! hehe But worth naman yun mga haba, lalo magaganda so ok lang. Di lang ok sa time na pwede ko siya panoorin. 

For now, I'm still worried but I know in his grace, everything will be fine. =) I hope lang na after this ordeal, I can now continue a simple yet happy living. At mapost ko na mga blog na to, bago magloko tong computer! Bwisit. hehe

By the way, after saying those words, it feels great, better.. Lovely. I've never been felt this way since years ago. hahahaha

I don't know what's going to happen next!

At least, doctor says don't worry na.

Quite relieved. =)

Multitasking

Another thing I learned sa call center or BPO, multitask. Can you believe that even I'm writing eh kinakausap pa ko ni Gerro with of course agreeing kung ano sinasabi niya plus talking to him at nagiisip kung ano isusulat ko. 

How about I'm browsing the net, at the same time, drinking a mug of water at the same time! hehe One hand for browsing, one hand for drinking. How about yun while the customer is talking tapos siyempre customer service skills mo pa then at the same time, doing notes, ginagawa mo na yun process habang nagsasalita si customer at ayun, pag tapos na siya magsalita, tapos na pinagagawa niya sayo. Hayop na customer. hehe

Those were just examples of doing multiple tasks in one time as Multitasking means. In this industry, it's not a required skill but in due time, you will learn of it. It's a must! 

Siyempre kailangan kasi you have targets sa AHT or productivity na dapat makarami ka ng tasks na tatapusin or calls na itake kasi mas maraming calls, mas mababa ang AHT. To do that, well, do everything in such one action then done. Simple? At first, sobrang hirap kasi hirap na nga kausapin ang pesteng customer, tapos siyempre nangangapa ka pa sa tools. hehe Mahirap talaga sa umpisa tapos siyempre, CS skills, empathy, negotiating tapos yun.. Lahat lahat gagawin mo lang in one go. Mahirap.. 

But I can say with this skill na natutunan ko eh naging mas organized ako sa lahat ng ginagawa ko at di lang yun.. Naging mas productive ako lalo na pag admin work. Mas naging active ako kasi kaya ko naman gawin lahat, well most of the admin work naman, in one task or work. Lalo na yun may shop ako, tapos nagbebenta pa ko sa opisina tapos may trabaho ako, every day as much it's stressful but due to multitasking, di naman ako nahimatay sa work. hehe Dun ko nakita yun limit ko as an individual and how much I can really do for work.

At lalo na sa surfing the net, natawa ako dati, pag nagtraining, at siyempre minsan boring ang training. Ako eh nakikinig, sumasagot sa excercises and at the same time, may fave thing to do. Blogging. hehe It's really fun and ayun, wala pa naman huli. Sometimes, may backlash yun multitasking kasi you need to do those tasks accurately or efficiently, or simply correct. Di yun sobra o kulang, tama lang. May time nga sa sobrang multitask ko, nakakalimutan ko yun ibang bagay na dapat nagawa ko. Or worse, yun iba eh nagawa ko ng mali. hehe Basta, naku katakot takot na kapalpakan din ang mga nangyari, pero mabuti eh di naman lagi. hehe

I'm lucky with this skill eh I learn fast and more attention to detail fast as well. Indeed it makes your work faster and proper, not all the time, but at least most of the time basta may practice, accept failures and mistakes at higit sa lahat, alert. 

Mahirap naman siguro yun nag dodota ka at natutulog at the same time di ba? hahahaha

Misconceptions

Misunderstood, wrongfully accused, akala kaw yun or being prejudiced. Naks. Pare-parehas lang yun.. Hay minsan, tanggapin na lang. First impressions do last! hehe

- Di po ko the third nor Junior. Geez, malinaw naman ang sulat ko o kahit sa ID. At sa birth cert di ba hehe

- Di po ko basketball player, dati naglalaro ako kaso malabo na mata ko, at yun nga nainjure pa ang aking right leg. Although pwede nasa sa excercise and stuff, still malabo na for basketball. Sayang ang tangkad ko. 

- Di po ko si Pnoy. I wish, para lahat ng ladies pwede madate! Kung ayaw niya kay Grace Lee, I'll go for Jinri Park! hahahaha

- Sa tangkad ko po ito, di po ko palaaway or malakas boses. Actually I'm still shy, introvert or whatever, basta di ako center of attention. I do due to height. Damn. hehe

- Di po ko mukhang Chinese, I wish sana Japanese kaso malabo I don't have features of a normal japanese dude, ah mayroon pala, hmmmmm guess what. =)

- Di pa po ko malusog, overweight pa nga ko at di pa maeexcercise. Someday. hehe 

- Di po ko badet. hehe Nagkataon kasi mas marami ako male friends than girl friends. Hmmm galing kasi all boys at pag dating naman ng college, nahihiya pa ko lumapit sa girls, guys muna nabarkada ko.

- Wala po ko sakit or cancer, salamat naman. Kalbo ako kasi yun gitna sa ulo ko, malabo na matubuan kasi sa operasyon. Thanks pala sa mga nagsasabi mas bagay sa kin. hehe

- Di po ko malakas, as in well built. Malakas kumain oo. hehe But yeah, I'm just weak sometimes. =(

- Di po ko snub or walang paki or di malapitan kasi nakasimangot o malungkot ako. hehehe Ah like I always say, marami lang siguro ako iniisip or ganito lang ako. Masayahin naman ako, di lang kita. I'll do my best to smile all the time or at least, be alert. At sociable, ask them... Deep inside I'm loving. Naks hehe

- Wala po ko anak. Ah as far as I know or others know, wala pa naman. Walang nga fiance or simple GF. hehehe

- Di po June 12 or other days ng June ang birthday ko. Hay. But still I accept late greetings. hahaha 

- Ah I don't look or sound 40, it's just my voice. =)

- Di po ko DJ, oh I wish! hahaha Thanks for that compliment. Or even, a commanding voice daw. O ha!!!

- Ah di naman ako lagi nagmamadali, maybe I'm just want to finish it fast. Para marami pang gagawin o makapahinga agad.

- Di po ko matapang like others say, sa loob loob ko, grabe, may nerbyos din ako like Dad! hahaha

- Di po ko lawyer or doctor due to my scribbles, I mean handwriting, ah.. Pasensya na, talagang di na maiimprove ang aking permanship. hehe

- Even I throw a line or two, I know they will laugh or have fun to it, pero sometimes it's either the truth or sarcastic.

- Minsan nagkumpisal ako, some times they ask kung Pari din ako o pinagkakamalan. hehe Di po ko Pari, as much that is quite interesting, walang calling po talaga. =)

- Di na mataas ang standards. Naku dami magcocomment. 

Ayun lang, hay laging ganyan pero ok lang! At least may pumapansin. 

I hope my other good impressions will last. 

almost gone: Sitcoms

Situational comedy ang ibig sabihin nito. Karamihan, tawag eh slapstick. In a very short time, you'll be laughing or having fun makinig o lalo na makita ang mga jokes o kalokohan na nito. Paano pa kaya pag isang oras na puro ganito. 

I agree what Direk Jose Javier Reyes said, as he quote na the reason comedy blockbusters are earning big these days sa box office eh dahil sa simpleng rason. Big networks doesn't do really these kind of shows. 

I watched one episode na toda Max, yun Angel Locsin and Vhong Navarro show na dapat kasama si Robin pero wala naman siya lagi. hehe Dad used to watch that not to have fun but just starte at Angel Locsin. hahaha Well, napanood ko yun episode, just an example, yun guest si Anjo Ylanna! As Dino Tengco! =) Grabe, intro pa lang, natawa na ko, at nabalik yun mga araw na well, nasa sitcom siya dati. From Palibhasa to Abangan at itbp. Well, siya lang talaga nagdala ng show, pero gift credit na din kay Pokwang, Al Tantay but the main cast kuno. Nah.. I doesn't make me laugh or I was just laughing because it's bad. Geez.. They've tried but well, di talaga.

Iba naman kasi ang mga sitcom dati. Of course, longest running na yun bubble gang pero kung tutuusin, aba mas matindi pa yun mga dating shows. Each station now has at least one gag show na lang, sitcoms, alam ko isa na lang din. Dati, grabe parang may 2-3 sitcoms tapos dapat may gag show pa. Tapos samahan mo pa ng mga pito pito comedy flicks, hay kay saya ng mga araw na yun! 

Kay dami na sitcoms dati, siyempre at gag show, alam niyo na kung ano ano yun. Kung ililista ko pa yun, aba mas mahaba yun listahan kaysa sa post na ito. hehe 

Best gag shows na lang, hmmmm Bubble gang, Champoy, Tropang Trumpo, Goin Bananas, Sick o clock news at yun fave ko, intro soundtrack pa lang, panalo na. T.O.D.A.S! hehe Sitcoms, well... John en Marsha, Home Along, Ober Da Bakod, Cool ka lang, Iskul Bukol, Buddy en Sol, Okey Ka Fairy ko (Dahil kay Alice Dixson/Tweety De Leon. hehe), Takeshi's Castle (di ko maclassify eh.) hehe, Abangan na susunod na kabanata at ang pinakalegendary sa lahat, walang kapantay at ngayon may tshirt pa ko! Palibhasa Lalake! hehe Kaya siguro yun mga ka age ko loko loko din sa chicks, natutunan dito! hehe At yun mga banat, grabe.. Classic. At higit sa lahat, basaan! hehe Partida, walang masyado script, adlib at dito na din nauso yun laglagan. Kaya sa barkada, nagaya eh, di matapos tapos na laglagan! Kapapanood nito! hehe

Eh siyempre di mo pa isama yun like I said pito pito movies, almost all na fave ko, it's either TVJ or Joey De Leon at ang fave ko Rene Requestas. Sorry Pidol, pero Rene ako. Grabe eh. hehe Iba yun patawa niya tapos sidekick niya lagi si Panchito, nganga na! haha Ah of course, Pidol, lalo na yun mga 60-70's niya films, iba yun, mga classic. 

Matanong ng lahat or marami why tv stations are not doing these kind of shows? One is well, iwas MTRCB. I mean, besides yun issue ni Vice Ganda sa concert, eh kung tutuusin mas matindi yun mga jokes dati, may double meaning at minsan nakakalusot pa yun green. hehe Kaya well, natatakot sila masuspend o worse, mawalan ng audience, which neither of them happened but kung mahigpit dati ang MTRCB, naku suspend halos maraming shows noon. 

Sunod eh kung mapapansin niyo eh kung di naman tumanda yun mga bida mga shows na yun, eh iba pumanaw na. Kakalungkot as much they gave the greatest fun and antics, namayapa na halos sa mga magagaling na comedians. =( There are other current mediums to really show how funny a person is. One is comedy bar, na kung saan galing yun mga bagong comedians natin today.. Another is the net, youtube sensations or whatever, 15 seconds of fame is damn worth it for them. Ngayon they became personalities bigla. 

Lastly, eh taste ng audience of today and the networks that feed to us viewers. Like films, people doesn't want to think much while watching a tv show. Mabuti pa sa US, kahit may Walking Dead, eh may shows pa din na New Girl or 2 broke girls, or Big bang theory. Here, unfortunately, we have Juan Dela Cruz at Indio (na matetegi na) Or worse a bunch of drama anthology crap telenovelas which the only goal is to get advertisers. hehe Ok lang kung talagang prepared or neatly done, kaso yun mga bida, diyos miyo.. Ni pagsasalita di malinaw, kung malas malas, nabulol pa. Hay! Ano silbi ng editors. Or even directors. Geez.. Well, mabuti may be careful with my heart but come on, don't tell me magliligawan sila for 10 years! hahaha Kakaumay ata yun.

Well, few tv shows that give me at least interest, and not those koreanovelas. See? San mga sitcoms? Toda Max na lang? Banana Split, Loko U (I watch that coz of Arci. hehe) Hay, it's better to just watch yun jeepney tv, kaso sa cable. Partida, wala pa yun palibhasa dun, pero natutuwa na ko sa Reruns. Those kind of fun, just wala today. Even in films, I mean I did watch sisterakas dahil kasi kay Jeleane, hehe Pero compare that sa atsay killer? Atsay Killer na lang. hehe Di ko pa icompare yun sa ibang classic. Siguro masasabi ko natuwa ako at classic today is Zombadings but well that's a film or Here comes a bride. No local TV sitcom or show na talagang aabangan ko at least once a week. Except for Eat Bulaga. 

I hope TV stations will really look into this aspect of programming. I do understand na they are giving what audience what, good looking men and women with shrieking voices, just for adver money or ratings game.. I hope they make yun kagaya dati, or kahit di naman araw araw, make it at least once a week. Kakaumay na watching it's either crap show or crap gossip show, or non stop news. I mean comedy is another way to really give fun sa mga audience. Even the netizens or bloggers will agree that shows before or sitcoms were way better than these shows today. 

Well, despite changing tides or likes, sana gumawa sila ulit yun mga show na puno na kwela at panandalian aliw, tunay na aliw sa mga Pilipino. =) 

Palibhasa Reunion na lang kaya? hehe

flashbacks: Cooler Summer

(..End of Summer, Start of Rain..)

There was a time in my life na masasabi ko, satisified ako. One of the reasons, I love rainy season.. hehe I mean, despite sa stress and conflicts basta there is one thing that keeps you going, anything can be managed. Love is such a beautiful thing to keep. Always.

Never in my wildest dreams that there was a woman na tinanggap who I am and motivate to do better everyday, and yes, gives a smile in my face when I wake up. I also never thought that I'll meet na babae that is very sweet, yet fierce but gentle. Most of all, loving. Of course, admitted love first before even we meet in person. Despite the odds, and consequences.. 

Pero siyempre it took a long way before maging kami. I mean hmmmmm we were just chatting tapos texting, then talking over the phone, grabe mahal pa ang load noon kasi walang unli call! hehe Friendster pa noon dahil na din sa pics and stuff. YM and yun lang, exchange pleasantries sort of thing. Until one night...

She acted weird at nagdradrama, ayaw niya na makipagkita o makipagusap sa kin. Edi ako naman, siyempre di ako sumuko malaman kung bakit. So I called and sent lengthy text at yun thru probing, eh umamin. First time in my life especially searching that true love na ako yun di umamin agad. Alam mo naman ang history ko sa courting ladies, nauuwi lang ika nga today, friend zone. hahahaha Siya, nope.

Ako naman, napaoo din agad kasi first time saka for the record, less effort. haha Ang kapal ng pez ko that time. 

Anyway, after that special night.. There were no days na di ko siya pwede imiss tawagan or text kasi parang kulang ang araw ko. Without her sweet words or sometimes hate words, hahaha I really appreciate yun effort niya at ako din for her nung mga reply niya. Of course we can't help but eager to meet right away but due to some factors, we can't. =(

Well, a year past.. Or before going into our anniv eh we decided to meet, thanks sa election kasi busy sa kanila that time.. Pumunta siya Manila and sinundo ko siya from airport. That meeting was nostalgic, that glance of hers.. Her simple beauty mesmerized me, I mean in pics medyo di siya photogenic, pero sa personal.. Kaboom. hahaha Iba na eh. Wow..

So there, we rode a cab and stayed home. Mom was kinda surprised that day kasi di lang friend na girl ang pinakilala ko sa kanya, girlfriend agad. hehe So ok naman. Then first test of relationship comes right away. May pupuntahan kami event, reunion ng 4BA1, ayun meet number3, katapat si GF. Eh alam that time ni ex ang story ni number3, nakita ko yun lisik ng mata niya against her. Patay to, selosan agad. haha 

Pag uwi away agad. Naman oh. hehe After that and of course, honest naman ako at wala naman talaga kami ni number 3, eh maayos na. Well, she stayed for sometime sa bahay and she is always out everyday due to a lot of relatives, wondering until now, dapat, tumira na lang siya dun. hahaha Kaso, may rason kasi na di pwede ganun that time. =(

She went back to her home way down south... After weeks na she went back, then of course mas sobrang namiss namin ang isa't isa.. Biglang nagdecide siya na dito sa manila siya mag aral daw and magtapos. Grabe, I'm thrilled that time na akala ko I won't see her for another long time. But it will be soon agad. Wow! hahaha

That time, medyo buenas pa ko sa work kasi inilipat pa ko from HSBC Alabang to HSBC QC na nasa discovery suites pa dati. hehe So mas madali sa kin ang makita siya. 

Another surprise was well, sa amin pa siya titira! hehe Well, like others described. Live in na talaga to pero yun lang, kasama ang family ko dito. That time, I guess we did not really think others or what they say, what important is we just living full of love. =)

She went back at my birthday, one of the best birthdays I've had. hehe Then 6 months later we broke up. Sadly, we need to. =(

As much we did live together full of love, we faced reality within our midst. Fate like I always say against us. Dagdag mo pa ang other factors which won't be named but the ones who listened to my story, alam na. hehe Pero ganun talaga, sometimes, what you feel is for both of you is not in reality.

I realised we should blame ourselves for this falter. Noong una ibang tao pa, pero ung nagtagal, talagang kami na din ang cause. Lalo na if we we're kind indecisive in important things. Well, hanggang memorya na lang ang aming naging pinagsamahan. hehe

Di pa natapos sa hiwalayan, may problema pa after that! Lalo na sa side niya. Masyado naman siya pinarusahan.. =( Sometimes, I was so blinded due to love, naisip ko na puntahan sa place niya at check her out. Mabuti, natigil ako ng CRAP. hehe Ika nga ni doc, baka pugutan na lang ako dun. hehe Not kidding. It may be true.

I admit, it took me a longer time to move on due to well... How this relationship went far talaga, as much I want give every fun and darkest moments of this one, baka di na matapos ang post na to. hahaha Yun kasi.. Naisip na nga namin na magpakasal if everything went right. Edi magkakatotoo pa yun biro nila sa kin ngayon. hahaha 

I loved her caress and those lovely whispers.
I loved her natural hazelnut hair with that angelic face.
I loved her awesome dishes that she cooks, can match Mom's.
I loved her grace and posture.
I loved her voice, especially when she sings.. 
I loved her frailty that I should be besides her when panic starts.
I loved her above everything. Which of course, sometimes sobra. hehe

I used to send her something every monthsary, lalo na anniv. =) And she valued it. Especially my corsive letters, laki ng kinita ng air21 at lbc sa min. haha I wonder what happened to those stuff things. 

She also sent something to me, which some of them I kept. Hmmmm very good writer din.

What also surprised me, eh kilala niya ang mga taong malapit sa kin. Not only family, but lalo na yun CRAP, aba may time na lumalabas sila na wala ako! hahaha Which ok lang, at siya lang talaga nasama sa mga gimik ng CRAP, wag lang sa swimming, pahiya kami eh. hehe

Siyempre makakalimutan ba ang araw araw na taktak portion, ika nga ng CRAP kahit may reply madaling araw. hahaha

Everytime I tell this story, they ask friends pa daw kami. Nasan na siya, or nag FB ba kayo.. Siya yun hinanap. Grabe. haha As much I want to have connection to her, sad to say, I don't know. But I do know kung nasan siya or what. Block nga ko sa FB. hehe Mabuti pa yun iba, inadd niya, ako hindi. haha Bitter pero di naman. Kasi alam ko kung paano naman niya ko hanapin or well, she can just reach naman. Alam niya yun. Im just here and not really expecting from her. =)

The only things mattered for me after we broke up were she should be happy and free. With the news I heard from somebody about her, those things perfectly happened to her. =)

I'm now relieved. 

As for me, with all the ladies I met after her, medyo kinapos ako. hehe Because of her, bumaba ang standards ko. hahaha Kaso naging busy ako, alam niyo naman kung bakit at yun, ayaw ata talaga sa kin.

But it doesn't mean single na lang ako. Soon, there is one special lady that kinda gives me that love again. Ahay. hehe

Looking back, I learned a lot in that past relationship. Yun pinakanatutunan ko eh yun nalaman ko kung dapat yun tao pag nagmahal. It gives you not only joy or happiness in good times, but gives you hope in bad times. Of course, iba siyempre yun nasa taas, pero instant effect kasi yun iba ang nagmamahal sayo. Lalo na kung kasama mo pa parati. Saka masarap pag ang relationship defied all odds. hehe Paginiisip ko yun now, deep crap pala yun dati. hehe Sayang but at least we tried.

Kaya pag nanood ako ng eternal sunshine and blue valentine, peste naalala ko yun nangyari. hanggang dun lang. hehe

Great thing today, whatever path we chose for our lives, either way..

One time, as part of our lives, we loved each other.

Despite that coldness of rain, strong stormy winds, dissipated with the heat of the love. 

Cherished.

broken lines (collection 36)

A kind mouth multiplies friends,
and gracious lips prompt friendly greetings.
Let your acquaintances be many, but one in a thousand your confidant.
When you gain a friend, first test him, and be not too ready to trust him.
For one sort of friend is a friend whien it suits him,
but he will not be with you in time of distress.
Another is a friend who becomes an enemy, and tells of the quarrel to your shame.
Another is a friend, a boon companion, who will not be with you when sorrow comes.
When things go well, he is your other self, and lords it over your servants;
But if you are brought low, he turns against you and avoids meeting you.
Keep away afrom your enemies; be on your guard with our friends. 
A faithful friend is a sturdy shelter;he who finds one finds a treasure.
A faithful friend is a life saving remedy, such as he who fears God finds;
For he who fears God behaves accordingly, and his friend will be like himself.

Sirach 6:5-17

One and a half year regular

After sabihin ni TL na due to my consistent stats and some crap, eh eto, first time after a long time.. Naregular ako sa Stellar, at may bonus pa, pang umaga! hahahaha At yun pinangarap kong sked pa, 6am-3pm. Hay... At siyempre, still.. Backoffice. Although pay is kinda one of the lowest, actually second to the lowest, well, I'm satisfied. =)

After leaving 24/7, eh it took me 3 whole months to search for a job. Siyempre namili pa ko na gusto ko kaso naudlot. Bagsak ko eh Telstra sa Teletech Magallanes, kahit pay is good, same as FS pero damn.. Logistically and effort, napakahirap! 5 month, at dahil sa medyo delikado ang place, ayun alis na ko. I can't do this for a long time. Bakit kasi di ako buenas sa Mckinley! hehe

Althought dapat sa Jetstar or IP relay ako magaapply, anak ng tokwa napakahirap naman magapply. Kailangan may accent and perfect english, even in that smallest diction detail. Jeez, kahit malaki sweldo nila, mataas naman ang attrition rate! Mabuti na lang pala, thank you Lord! hehehe I tried ANZ, but well that time, hard core collections hinahanap nila. Sayang. 

At first, of course skeptic ako kasi di agad sweldo makukuha mo, allowances lang, para ang total eh kalahati ng tunay na sahod. Tapos after training eh, siyempre pakikisama sa mga team mates mo, pero siyempre ako naman, introvert so I don't really mingle agad. At may problema pa sa team, alam na nila yun. hehe From 5pm-2am, then 4pm-1am tapos in the end 3pm-12am. At nakakagulat, medyo nalalate ako!!! Grabe ang Eastwood pag hapon, napakatraffic, sa dami kasi dumadaan dun pashort cut going Pasig, Makati, Taguig and of course SLEX. Lintek yun, dati di naman siya ganun! hehehe 

Lalo na pagdating ng gabi, grabe na. Although naging maganda ang Eastwood unlike those DELL days, pero grabe pa din. Hay.. Mabuti talaga nalipat na kami ng sked. Masarap nga pumasok ng Sabado, walang rush, sana ganun araw araw. 

With the people I'm working with now, I can say I might stay here a little longer, due to some plans and enjoying my time here. First time, although di naman kasi sa ePLDT nag calls kasi ng 1st 2 hours bago email support, pero sarap ng sked, 7am-4pm. Eto first time na umaga, no calls and I haven't heard an aussie voice for quite sometime. Quite suprising for me, mate. 

Pero kung RAM at eto? Naku mas madali ang RAM, kahit walang updates, di ka magkakamali! hahaha Dito kasi lagi may update, kahit major process binabago. Pero ok lang, manageable. hehe Lalo na pag may bonus or what we call overprofit incentive, walang yamot. hehe 

I just want to thank siyempre wave 12 at si TL Raffy na nakaabot kami sa ganito at medyo madami pa din kami. Sayang yun mga umalis, di nagtiis na makarating mag pangumaga. hahahaha Ah, sa mga support like TL Kay, TL Yo, SME's alam niyo na kung sino yun na di nagsasaw tumulong lagi! At siyempre sa upper management like OM and SOM na for the longest time, eto yun upper management na talagang inaalagaan ang agents, pero kahit di perfect pero understanding at kumikilos. 

With the new team at TL na masasabi ko maasahan, I'm looking forward going one year here with no frills! Alam ko itatapon kami sa mga queue na weird at challenging, pero as long nandiyan lang ang support. Walang problema.

For now, just savoring the moment, maybe I should try to climb some steps up.

Besides, it's been a long time I've always well, performing agent. Why not try other position?

Burden

Life.

I'm like spaced out every night, just listening to his rants, or whatever he wants to say or do and answer back by yes. If not, trouble arises which I don't want to happen, it will be a long night. It's tiring but I'm getting used to it. 

A person who has a lot of plans or actions but seems quite unlucky to it. I guess, it will be a long drought. I'll be dragged to it. 

Dad trying his best to really work hard for a living but due to his sensitive health condition, he cannot work that much unlike before. I told him, just do what you can do. Don't push yourself. 

I'm just worried about him and of course, don't forget Mom about her needs as well.

Other got sick but great thing she's feeling better. Other is I don't know, quite living in a secluded state. 

Work is getting lighter due to the schedule but of course the load and targets are harder. With a new TL and members and some new tasks in the future, I'm not sure how can I cope with it. 

Friends are getting older and more busy, thanks to FB, I'm getting updates from them. Some, I don't know what happened to them. But great thing, well I can say, I have really close knit, dependable and loving friends. I have also new friends from the community and some new acquiantances. 

I have to take care of myself, although no really serious condition yet, I'm still waiting for a couple of procedures left.. I hope that my healthy routine will start soon. As much I want to have worry free attitude, but when you're starting to feel something not good, fear comes in. 

From broke to dire straits. It's an upgrade as you can call it, but as time goes by, those drought times, became fewer and less. Being patient and yes, being disciplined in money as I used to do it when I still have that shop.

Sometimes I thought, why am I in this situation. As you see, most of them are not really my problems. I can just leave and go far away and be alone. Or I also thought but not much I want to happen. What if my days are numbered? Or what if that tendency came to my mind and just die. How am I be valued when I'm gone? Or any be? I don't know. There are times, as much you give something, especially love, nothing comes back. Even a simple thanks. At work, they do it all the time because of the norm, but well it's a form of motivation for the worker. Outside of it or in my world perhaps. Only few do that. Other than that, I don't know. Hmmmm

However, I don't really mind those scenarios or events or crap.. I still continue to do what I should suppose to do. Taking care of those who close to you even it gets to your nerves. Still being patient despite when you are run out one, especially if you have a lot of things to do. Value them because of what they did for you before and now even well, the bad things outweigh some good things. Let's put it simple, love them still. 

Never give up to love them. Never forget them. Never also forget yourself. Control the emotions that might hurt somebody, breathe out and have rest. 

Whew, a lot rules or action that I can think of that will really makes me going. One thing that is above the rest, I value relationships now than before. Not only to one person but each person that have a connection through my life. I also value myself as not an attention graber but just want to be heard or want to be alone perhaps. 

I also learned one more thing as years goes by. I got closer to Him, as he whatever he brings to me, now... 

It's making sense. Good sense. A blessing. A love beyond measure. 

In the middle of all these, at the start of the day, at the end of each moment.. 

I thank Him for everything. Making me live day by day.. Making me feel love even in the smallest details in life.

Making me valued in my loneliness. Giving suprises that really gives me the simplest joy and making me going forward. As days goes by, love from the people around you surfaces.. A simply thank you or smile makes me relieved. 

Now, as I look forward another age, not disturbed by worry, fear and stress for a long time. Whatever I carry now.

In the end, they will be all down. 

I cannot do it alone, nor him alone. 

Carrying it together. 

Forever..

PreView

This June, siyempre, the ever famous, favorite month of mine. Not only my birthday, but almost maraming may birthday! hehe At siyempre special ito kasi yeah.. All of the sudden, it will be a new normal for me. 

Working for a day, it's my fave season of the year, raining.. hehe At iba pa. Although may mga bagong gagawin, like sa LOJ tapos may sat shift pa, tapos ehem.. Sana start na ng getting fit, eh I should be enjoying let's say a new dawn! 

I hope less troubles or errands, mas madali lalo na umaga. hehe Para di nagmamadali lagi kasi may pasok sa work ng hapon. Now, malabo na yun. =) 

I hope kung sino man nasa NBA finals, well nandiyan na ang Spurs, I hope di sila magchampion. hahaha Pag IND lang kalaban, wag na tayo umasa.

What else.. Hmmmm I hope I get something new this month, whatever it is.. I'm welcome to have it. =) For this month, well a lot of flashbacks or some revelations but di naman magbabago what I am today. It's just another way of having a new post sa blog, besides, wala na ko masyado maisip, wag muna itodo. hehe

For now, I hope, I can watch more movies in my collection after that very busy 2 months. At more rest din, kagaya lang today, pinagalitan ako ni Mommy, have more pahinga. hahaha I will this month. I guess..

Eto lang muna, hmmm I hope you stay glued!


At the start of a morning side of life. =)

three decades of me

At 28, I should be married but unfortunately.. Eto I'm 30 and single. hehe

30 years. Can you imagine na napakabilis ng panahon... Dati eh palabas labas, inom or gimik, now.. Looking forward for other plans in life to be steady and successful.

A long way, very long way I can say na successful na ko. After all what happened in my life, I ended up now, contented and happy but not satisfied. As reality speaks to me, I'm quite behind.

However, mabuti after all that eh di naman failure or sobrang sama ng state ang buhay ko, I feel still blessed, loved and happy. Thanks for my family that always there for me, kahit ano ang situation eh mahal naman ako. hehe Thanks to my friends, CRAP, close friends, CG, ah mga naging at current team mates, hmmm new somewhat friends. hehe Thanks to my community LOJ for such a spiritual growth in me. Sana maging ok ang paiging servant ko in the future. hahaha 

Siyempre kay God that always provides, Jesus for the love and forgiveness always, accepts who I am, even healing and guidance everyday. Holy Spirit for guidance in this so called journey. =)

Now, marami pa ko mga gusto gawin but medyo hinay hinay ata due to age. hehe Anyhow, I am determined to step foward through change but still keep, the same me. =) I know of course, life is not that long in this earth.. But it won't stop you enjoying it in the right way, in a most hollistic way.. 

I just hope that when another year comes to me..

I am a better person, bit by bit.

Well, di ko pa rin ialarm sa fb yun birthday ko! 

=( di ko kasi alam, ang hirap hanapin. hehe

Thanks for those, who remember.. 

For me, three decades, is it the new 20 perhaps?
