Naks, di naman ako tatakbo sa election or what! hehe Well, last week, I always visited to the hospital for some check ups and for this week, I think, I believe I will need to visit it again. I don't know what is happening to my body but I hope, it's not worse. God, sana ok naman ang health ko. Last week, I am a very busy man, on top of having many cases then eto, punta ng punta sa St. Luke's for my health concerns.
However, after that well, tiring experience, ayos naman ang off ko. I was able to get a long rest on last Saturday. Then on Sunday, eto naman sina William, Ivan and Raims eh nagyaya magkita sa Trinoma and ayun nagkita at nagkulitan at nanood ng Metropolis and Bowling for Columbine sa CBTL. Sarap, kasi sa parang comfy seats pa kami nanood. hehe Thanks to CBTL, kaya mas trip ko talaga sila kaysa sa other shops. hehehe
It was a tiring Sunday pero ayun nakauwi naman agad ako. Wala naman bago at ako pa rin ang dehado. hehe Pero ayun lang, di ko alam kung bakit ako nagkakasakit, siguro sa panahon, sobrang lamig pero may iba pa ko nararamdaman. Mukhang isang linggo ulit ako sa St. Luke's, pacheck up na naman, gamit na gamit ang Medicard. hehe Wish me luck and nothing bad, or even worse.
So nung nanood kami ng couple of interesting films, Raims won't like to go home yet, so ayun, nayaya sa Mister Kabab. hehe Si William, di pa nakakakain before, pinaorder ko ng special chelo Kabab. hehe Tapos si Ivan, ox brain, which di ko try. hehe Si Raims, something sizzling then ako, Keema with eggplant, with a career low of 2 breads, tapos watermelon shake. Nagsumo meal kasi ako, ako magisa. Kaya yun lang inorder ko. hehehe
Ok, the 2012 thing came in because of a discussion made about one of our classmates, friends in college, siyempre chism na naman ito pero because of that, there was a bet made. For more details, may blog kami dedicated for that, hehehe I will tell where to find it later. Inaayos ata ni Ivan ang site na yun. Crap that race. hehe Race to hell!!!
Medyo nafrufrustrate na ko sa Streets of Rage ha, etong axel na to, sobrang hirap tapusin sa Hardest difficulty. Peste na. Kaya babawi na lang ako next week. Crap. hehe Sa sobrang busy last week, I was not able to text my friends, kahit kahapon nga hindi din kasi sa lakad, hay marami ata ko babawian. Nanalo pala yun SLR kahit papano, one game. Yun TnT, grabe, 2-1, kahit umiskor si Dondon ng 39 points. hehe Dinaan na lang siguro sa advantage nila, which are their guards.
About the movies we watched, of course, given na yun Bowline for Columbine, my favorite Michael Moore movie because siguro on how he made it and yun topic as well. Maganda din yun 9/11, pero sobrang dreary ang setting. At least, eto, may fun part. hehe
Ang nakakagulat eh yun Metropolis. Remember, the silent movie used sa Radio Gaga video ng Queen. It was directed by Fritz Lang, I can say the great Fritz Lang, kahit parang un lang ang alam kong ginawa niyang movie. hehe Why great? Remember, the movie was created in 1928 and the topic is kinda complicated, like a epic and the visuals itself, already a masterpiece, an evolution in cinema. That's why it was so hailed as one of the great movies in history. From sets that are complicated, and remember, no great CGI used, yet it looks like it was used. The shots about the city and some imagination scenes are fantastic. Yun topic, iba, parang sobrang na visionary yun film na yun. Kaya pala nainspire yung mga great directors and even liked by Hitler because of the innovation of the movie. Kaya di ako nagulat, according to imdb.com, it took 2 years to make with that all hard work. Kahit manual lahat ng effects like the crowd walking, yun factory, yun climax scenes, it was done through good camera effect and mismong actors. hehe Like what Ivan said, Metropolis is way better than our TV shows today. hehe
That's all what I can say for today. I hate the stupid race. hehehe.
Patalo na lang kaya ako?

Well at Dell
Yes, well yesterday (01/14/09, natapos ko lang siya today due to work) was a stage in my career that 1 year was so fast and just realized, I am still here. hehe Many things changed when I started working here at Dell. I did not even think at first that I will stay here at Dell even with the pressures I got from home and then here. But I am still grateful that this company is really good. Like Nick says, "Ok sa Dell" then he left, after 2 years staying in the company. hehe
Pero ano kaya, simulan na natin, like flashbacks on what happened here at my 1 year stay. Wag na magtaka kung maraming comparison sa HSBC or ePLDT ha. hehe First, hiring process. Well, after I resigned in ePLDT, actually I already applied in Dell, sa RCBC tower pa sila, and I don't know why they did not follow up my application even I passed the online test. That's the reason why I ended up in HSBC. hehe After a 1 year stint in HSBC UK-CTS, because of some payroll and HR concerns tapos may nangyari pa sa house, I left them. Dissappointed. Pagkatapos magapply for some jobs and did not get any reply, like for a normal day job, I ended up applying again at Dell, this time, sa QC. So, I got hired around October pero start daw kami sa January 14, 2008 because of the 30 day allowance for resigning the post, which tapos na, bum na ko that time, ehehe and processing the other papers. Natapos naman at ayun, January 14, 2008 was our first day at Dell. By the way, bago pala kami magstart, may pakain and bowling pa sila, care of Niño ng hiring team sa eastwood, wala atang call center na ganun. hehe First time ko magbowl but it was fun, dahil dun, nagreunion ang 2cpm, ayun sibak sila sa bowling. hehe
At that time, I did not expect something great, I just thought of working hard for paying bills and buy some things naman so I was focused to just survive here. After 7 weeks of training and taking calls in our batch, we were dispatched to our regular teams. Training was very good and fun, siyempre magaling ang trainers and of course, makulit ang mga batch mates. hehe
Second, Production. Of course, training is not forever, depende kung magresign ka at lumipat ulit sa ibang call center. hehe You will need to do work, serious work. But here at Dell, they make sure that people has a balance between work and fun. Some queues malabo yun, pero may queue naman sa sobrang posible, like mas maraming fun kaysa sa work. hehe Nung training call period naman, of course may TM na ko dun and I ended up the same TM and same batchmates as team mates once we are in the production team. At first, siyempre, hirap kami kasi we are now in a regular basis of taking calls and taking care any customers, even they are good or bad, or irate or worse. Name it. hehe or sometimes, stupid or lost. hehe
So, of course, I believe I've done my best in this Tier 1 role, well I got some awards, even before I got transferred here sa Tier 2. Masaya naman ang account, like I can compare it sa UK account. I mean here naman eh kahit mahirap yun account eh ok naman yun company(maraming events and benefits), unlike sa HSBC, di makisama yun company, pero sobrang dali naman ng account, so patas in terms sa account na hinandle ko. In ePLDT? eCare lang ang masaya. hehe The account itself? The worst, the hardest. hahaha Balita ko, 10thou na lang ang agent, anak ng tokwa, anu yun, NGO ka ba nagwowork? hehe
Speaking of money, let's go to the Third factor, Payroll. Well, let's go to memory lane. If it serves me right, ePLDT payroll is good. Even the pay was pretty low, come on, they give the salary on time. 15-30 sila pero minsan napapaaga, at maganda, walang dispute, sa base rate lang. hehe Saka tax mababa saka ok naman. Once lang ako nagkaproblema sa kanila sa pay even mababa. Sa HSBC, naku, simula pa lang ha. 1st payroll pa lang sa training, pain in the arse na sila, at di na natapos, actually hanggang sa pagresign ko, problema pa rin. Kulang sa OT, night diff, and even taxes, narealize ko lang na medyo magulo ang tax computation. hehe Pero grabe, marami ata kaming OTY nun, lalo na nung nag 4x11 (4 days a week, 11 hours a day shift) tapos sa days off, OT pa, edi san ka pa? hehe Patayo sila ng malaking site sa QC, marami naman umaalis na agent. Sayang sila. Sayang yun mga account nila. Lalo na sa UK account. hehe Lastly, Dell, every 2 weeks ang sweldo, so may 2 months na 3 times kami sweldo. Kahit halos parehas lang ang pay sa HSBC, pero feeling ko, mas malaki pa rin sinahod ko dito. (Di ko lang mafeel kasi sa daming binabayaran.hehehe) Tapos, pag may award pa, edi katching na naman, tax free. Medyo malaki ang tax, pero ganun pa din, mas malaki ang sinahod ko dito, that's why I am happy here. Di lang every 2 weeks, may exact time pa. hehe Saka yun mga payroll days na dapat yun ang sked, pinaaga nila like bonuses, or whatever bonus. hehe For disputes, mabilis dito kaya sobrang ok ang payroll.
Fourth Factor, HR. HR all we know is a very important part in a business or org. So any problems more than the TM or Manager can handle eh dun ang bagsak. ePLDT, I mean has a good payroll and HR naman. Kahit panget ang pay, effective naman ang payroll naman, especially if need the benefits, like papers, updates or anything (un medical insurance nila di ko nagamit! bad trip) hehe Processing documents as well, so ayun sayang din sila. Mahirap hiring nila ha, compare it to the other two. hehe Pero overall naman, good kahit wala masyado promotion. hehe Sa HSBC, anak ng tokwa, the worst. May mga kabatch ko na galing din dun at may wanted na AM sa HSBC, VP na pala siya ngayon. hehe Grabe. Since outsource na nga yun payroll, ganun pa ang kapalpakan. Like after a very tiring day, pupunta ka pa ba Ask HR nila para magdispute tapos wala din nangyayari. hahahaha Ang saya. Siyempre, about promotion, magulo, I tried applying for a different position, pero ayun may requirement, or what which nakakairita. In fairness, maraming VL na nagamit ko talaga. hehe Pero kahit ganun, kahit maraming extra pay like hazard pay, allowance whatever, magulo at di mo din makukuha, lalo na ngayon na financial crisis, I doubt, maraming pagtitipid ang ginagawa ng ungas. hehehe
In Dell, of course, if you have a sound payroll system, kahit third party pa, do you think ang HR nila eh olats? Siyempre, hindi. hehe Sa dami ng programs nila besides like usual HR stuff, masaya dito! From events, then pakain tapos meal card, then promos, it's never ending. May updates pa like health, IT stuff whatever and of course, multiply, friendster and other sites na pwede naman. NBA kahit gmanews.tv, pwede. hehe They keep the people motivated and wanted to stay here. Sa promotions naman, mayroon kaso ayoko yun mga position, usually night shift. May mga day shift kaso, na action plan pa ko. hehe So I am going to check that. What good thing sa HR is they are just an email away, leave an email to any HR rep tapos tutulungan ka nila like SSS, Philhealth and Medicard, and other things you need. (Yun iba, GE Loan, pero siyempre, di ako pwede) hehe So basta, masaya ang HR dito. Oo nga pala, sayang, di ako nanalo ng raffle nung xmas party na sobrang dami pinamigay. Bad trip. hehe Even in this financial crisis, they are really doing anything to keep us. Kahit may pagbabago, explain naman sila agad and we understand naman.
Lastly, Overall, or the Company itself. In ePLDT, masaya ako kasi nakawork ako ng backoffice and never been absent at that work, pero siyempre sa inbound, panay absent ako until a good TM handled our team. hehe Pero balita ko ngayon, pasaway na rin, ewan ko ba, sabi ko sa kanya, lumipat na ng company. hehe Ok lang sa ePLDT, kasi without the experience I got from them, wala ako napuntahan ngayon. hehe In HSBC, HDPP. Bad trip, siguro, masaya ako in the sense I worked and met great team mates there, and worked in an easy account, pero di naman ako sobrang happy. Tama lang, mas masaya lang compare it to ePLDT due to the offer, team mates and account, no regrets leaving them after 1 year.
At Dell, I am really happy at this company. Not only they saved me but also recognizing my efforts, doing feedback and huddles and great support from management. Malapit pa sa bahay. hehe Pag naiwan ko to, I am happy to be part of them, I am proud being part of Dell, kung mababalik ko lang ang time, kung available na sila since 2005, dito na sana ako nagwork kahit agent lang at di na ko lilipat sa ibang call center, except kung sumobra na ang hirap ng account nila. hehe Pero everything is great. I just hope lang that I will grow or at least, get a position which in a day shift naman. Un lang and I will be staying here for quite some time. If there will be a opportunity to work in a position, with a different work and in a dayshift or regular day job, (same pay?) hehe I will go there of course, pero siyempre, mahirap iwan ang Dell and some regrets. But that will be fine, and besides, it's part of a plan...
I will be forever grateful to Dell. Parang sobrang positive ata ng feedback sa kanila. hehe Well, try to apply here and work. Kaso freeze hiring eh. Sorry. hehe
Oh yes, I saw her profile, hmmm kinda cute hat.
Pero ano kaya, simulan na natin, like flashbacks on what happened here at my 1 year stay. Wag na magtaka kung maraming comparison sa HSBC or ePLDT ha. hehe First, hiring process.

overfasting
Since I need to have a blood chemistry again last Saturday, I was able to do it, but unfortunately, when yun Med tech na kukuha sa kin ng dugo asked kailan ako huling kumain, I honestly told her, "3pm po nung Friday." Ayun, biglang sinabi niya na, "Sir, di po pwede po kayo kuhanan ng dugo kasi overfasting kayo, di magiging acurate yung test natin" I asked, pwede bumalik ako ng Monday?" She answered, yes, so that's what I did. hehe
How stupid I am, na 8-12 hours lang pala pwede ako magfasting before blood chemistry. Actually, di ko alam na di pwede pala yun di talaga ako kakain. hehe Well, let's go back on Friday! Last minute VA AM application was approved just on time on Friday shift. So ayun, nagpapapicture for my passport then got a very good rest. Nakalaro pa nga ko ng Streets of Rage then nanood sandali ng PBA, natulog na ko ng mahimbing, but hindi ako nakakain ng dinner, so puro tulog lang ginawa ko at nagpahinga. Sorry to my bro kung hindi na ko nakareply. hehehe Sobrang antok at pagod lang siguro ako that week.
Anyway, it is a good thing that my first VL for the year was approve at the last minute. hehe Thanks to my beloved TM and of course, our dedicated coach. Naks. hehe
Ayun, di rin ako nakapanood ng the Spirit, baka kasi di sulit ayun sa reviews. I want to watch Transporter 3, pero may DVD na ata sa bahay, and pinahiram pala ako ni Kuya ng dvd player. hehe Pero well, because of the dvd player, napanood ko ang mga films na namiss ko, number 1 Rambo 4. Action and old school fun, and very violent. hehe Pwede na ata gumawa si Stallone ng war movie. Then yun Resident Evil Degeneration na CG movie, karugtong ng RE4, which di ko nalaro sa PS2. hehe Maganda yun Resident Evil, it's just bitin saka talagang side story, wala man lang balita sa ibang characters. hehe Then, there is Hancock, which is Will Smith's answer to superhero movies. Hmmm not good, but not bad. Ok lang, pero buti na lang sa DVD ko napanood. hehe So parang bad movie na rin. hehe
Well, parang ang ginawa ko this weekend is more playing the Street of Rage, checking online stuff, tapos sinamahan ko si Gerro then finding some magic cards. Parang Friday lang ako nagpahinga. hehe
That's all I did for the past days, and now back to chaos. hehe Good thing our team got a good CE, except for the tier 2 part. hehe Sana makabawi kami next week. I hope the results of the blood chem will be good. Sana may improvement kahit papano sa Uric Acid count ko.
By the way, congrats sa batch 5 ng ATG at Dell!!! One year na kami!!! hehe Kanya-kanyang resign na to!! hahahahahaha Yun iba, kanyang kanya loan sa GE naman. hehe
I will post that 1 year experience here later. I will be staying of course here, for now..

kakaantok
Siyempre, while at shift, medyo petiks mode so eto, walang magawa. Minsan, inaantok hehe Loko talaga si Rheg, nilagay pa naman ako "gummy bear". Panay ganun niya, pero baka sa huli, siya din ang bumigay. hehe Mga ungasis talaga. Wala naman bago, pero of course, payday came out and malaki ha. Nung una, I felt, parang kulang, pero come to think of it, hmmm for the last 2 weeks of December, 4 and a half days lang kami pumasok. Malaki ang sweldo, hehe Marami lang kasi ako bills. But it's good, you get the rest and still get the pay.
Pero most of the time, di na ko inaantok, siguro bago pasok, pero once I arrived at the office, ayun deretcho na until it reaches the end of the shift. Sanay na siguro ako, sa tatlong taon ba naman sa ganitong work, veteran na ata yun body ko for this. hehe That's why, I hope, it should end this year, medyo nakakasama na ata sa health ko and other aspects in my life. hehe
It will be a long post if I going to discuss those things why this kind of job affected my life. hehe I don't want to discuss that either. Pero luckily naman, here at Dell, masaya naman ako, even there are some drastic changes, I am very happy staying here because of what they done. Financially and career wise. I owe them a lot. hehe One year will be next week, working here at Dell!!!
May nabasa ako sa net, if you were a old WWF fan, check this out, http://www.empireonline.com/features//wwf-wrestling-legends-where-are-they-now/. Di lahat ng wrestlers nandito pero most of them, lalo na yun iba, dami na pala namatay. hehe God bless them. Pero WWF fan kasi ako dati, lalo na yun mga ulitmate warrior days. hehe Empireonline has a good stuff for movies and updates as well. I check it sometimes, other than, IMDB.
Now, hmmm. Ayun, bukas, kawawa ang RoS bukas sa Sta. Lucia, walang Norwood, tapos kung malasin naman ang SLR, aabot ng game 3, wala naman si Mercado. Anak ng tokwa. hehe Kung kailan umabot sa ganito yun Rain or Shine, dun pa sila masisilat. hahaha Pero, ok naman sila, lalo na pagnakakuha ng malakas na big man. Grabe, masyado malakas ang RoS in the future. Yun Ginebra, kahit sobrang ganun ang line up, akalain mong mananalo pa sa SMB, pero sobrang lakas ng SMB, di na ko magugulat kung talo Ginebra bukas. Magagalit si Al nito. haha
What else. Nothing more. Nothing Less. Absolutely speechless now, maybe, I will just keep quiet.
Medyo inaantok na ko, kahit marami pang cases.
Pero most of the time, di na ko inaantok, siguro bago pasok, pero once I arrived at the office, ayun deretcho na until it reaches the end of the shift.

May nabasa ako sa net, if you were a old WWF fan, check this out, http://www.empireonline.com/features//wwf-wrestling-legends-where-are-they-now/. Di lahat ng wrestlers nandito pero most of them, lalo na yun iba, dami na pala namatay. hehe God bless them. Pero WWF fan kasi ako dati, lalo na yun mga ulitmate warrior days. hehe Empireonline has a good stuff for movies and updates as well. I check it sometimes, other than, IMDB.
Now, hmmm. Ayun, bukas, kawawa ang RoS bukas sa Sta. Lucia, walang Norwood, tapos kung malasin naman ang SLR, aabot ng game 3, wala naman si Mercado. Anak ng tokwa. hehe Kung kailan umabot sa ganito yun Rain or Shine, dun pa sila masisilat. hahaha Pero, ok naman sila, lalo na pagnakakuha ng malakas na big man. Grabe, masyado malakas ang RoS in the future. Yun Ginebra, kahit sobrang ganun ang line up, akalain mong mananalo pa sa SMB, pero sobrang lakas ng SMB, di na ko magugulat kung talo Ginebra bukas. Magagalit si Al nito. haha
What else. Nothing more. Nothing Less. Absolutely speechless now, maybe, I will just keep quiet.
Medyo inaantok na ko, kahit marami pang cases.

another disturbing sleep
As Ivan confessed and well, I already forgive him. It's my fault as well not informing my number but anyway. Past is past. hehe Well, akala ko tapos na pero nangyari na naman kanina. After some time last night, may pumasok na naman sa kwarto ko at kung ano ano ang ginawa. Ayun, nadisturb ang sleep ko and I was late coming to work today for 4 mins. hehe Good job! Late na nga last month eh. Kakahiya kay TM. hehe Don't worry, I have a plan, I will have my door locked when I am sleeping!!!! Nangyari pala ay pinalitan yun TV ko, malamang nabad trip si Kuya sa TV, matagal kasi lumabas yun screen. hehe
If Betch was able to come up plans for this year. Or even each one of us has already plans for this year, for me, nothing new. I don't want to set up plans for the year because it may be broken. hehe Crap. But seriously, I will just stick to my plans, try to reach them, especially for a day normal regular job for this year. Haba no? hehe At least, with this job, I can have a normal life again. Sana same company pa din. I love staying here, but if there will be an opportunity to work to a regular life, why not? It's a very long time that I haven't work in a regular day. hehe Once I recovered as well from my crisis, I think everything will fall into place, I am not sure if this will happen this year.
Love life? Hmmmmm. I am not into or want to have a relationship this year. Not into my targets this year. hehe Maybe because I want to have a normal day job first, maybe I can go into one. But of course, wala naman ako prospect, kahit kinukulit na ko nila Rheg and friends, eh wag muna siguro. Kakapagod siguro, especially when the relationship that I came from, was kinda complicated. hahaha
Oh well. What else. Yun lang siguro for now, about plans for this year. I need to pick up my scores as well. Letcheng survey, marami ako nakuha. hehehe Oh, one thing for sure that I will do this year. Be optimistic. As long I still have my family, friends and God on my side, things will end in a good way. I hope for this year. Last year was a good one, I hope this year will be a better one. Kahit single lang ako this year, ok lang basta almost lahat ng problema tapos. Or even reach my goals at least.
I checked the movies coming out this year. Thanks to empireonline and yahoo. hehe Well, given na ang Watchmen, Transformers 2, at GI Joe. hehe Pero yun iba mayrun din like sequel ng Twilight, New Moon. Seth Rogen and Adam Sandler in 1 movie! hehe Dragonball! hehe Anak ng tokwa, Dragonball, let's see, kung ano adaptation ng kano dito. Pero feeling ko, olats. hehehe Wolverine din, iniba na naman ang story, sobrang iba. Mukhang bad trip to. Harry Potter? It was a letdown yun last movie, but I believe, this coming one, mukhang maganda kasi yun plot, story nun whatever villain. I am not a Potter fan kasi kaya di ko alam ang name nun. hehe
Music, hmmmm I don't know what will be a good music this year, pero isang punta lang yan sa tower quiapo. hehe Or how about the internet as well. Medyo behind na ata ako sa sounds. Eh pano naman, all the sounds I hear, it's either, so crappy or so good. It depends in my mood. hehe
Well computers, sana makakuha ako ng bagong desktop, and a new cellphone pero di ko na iniisip muna yun. hehe And other things, I just keep it to myself.
So, I hope, I will not get more any short sleeps, or maybe, I should just the other way around, do everything after work then go to sleep and be awake before work. Mahirap yun gigising ka tapos kakain tapos may mangugulo tapos tutulog na naman. Medyo bad trip pala yun. hehe
Hoping is not enough to reach certain goals, it's time to work harder. I think, it's time to give my best shot.

disturbing visitor
at last, I am feeling avail today. hehe After a very hectic Monday, now it is the time for the petiks mode. hehe There was a visitor yesterday that made my day so bad. Natutulog ako ng mahimbing at bigla na lang siya susulpot. Anak ng tokwa, bitin ang tulog ko, actually di na ko nakatulog tapos pagpasok ko pa eh queuing pa! Approaching at the end of my shift, may call pa kong napakahirap, 40 mins ako inabot sa kakasalita sa customer. What a bad day. hehehe Itong taong to, mukhang namumuro na ha. hahaha Sa susunod kasi, magtext or inform me ahead before pupunta, lalo na pagtulog na ko, wala na ko paki sa visitors. Well, tapos na yun, he got the CD anyways.
Nothing new from me, but congrats to Betch for her new endeavor as a FA ha. Mukhang yun ang pangarap niya, congrats to her!!! Buti pa siya nakuha niya na ang pangarap niya. hehe Kailan kaya ako? Well, I missed posting here ha. Kahit walang nagbabasa. hehe Namiss ko magpost, to release the tensions in life I guess. Medyo naaddict ako last weekend sa emulator, especially sa game na Streets of Rage, Sega game ha. I miss the old days. At to my surprise, medyo namaster ko na siya ha, unlike nung HS ako na sobrang hirap ako, hanggang normal level nga lang ako. Pero nung tumatanda ako, hardest level na kaya, at natapos ko pa! hehe Master ko na yun game. I am into old school gaming nga. hehe Pero naisip ko din na ang diff ng dating games to new games. Like, in old games, it won't take you half a day to finish a game, unlike sa bago na araw binibilang, lalo kung di mo alam ang laro. Pero sa new games naman, di nakakasawa, kahit alam mo na pasikot sikot, minsan, todas ka pa rin. hehe But computer games, is still computer games, I still like playing computer games whether it's old school or new skul. hehe
What else? Hmmm, sana today, makauwi na ko ng maaga, tama na ang OT. haha Medyo nadrain na ko sa work na to ha. Pero malapit na, ilang buwan na lang at malalaman ko, if I will stay here or not. hehe
Sana naman masaya ang CE namin, para at least, bawas stress. No more hope if I can still have a VL this coming payday. Parang wala na talaga eh, depende kung may gawin milagro si TM. hehe
Well, I don't know what else to say, but I will just try to add my contacts in this account I guess, taking advantage of this avail.
Very long avail.

blackswordsmann
Ok, I thought that the last post was for 09, but it was not according to my blogger account. hehe Anyway, that's fine, this will be my first post for 09 to keep my blogger updated, at least. Good thing na half day kami nung Friday shift, kasi naman, puro outbound, eh 2am pa lang tapos na ko. Partida, nagloloko pa yun IDD ko, kaya medyo natagalan pa ko sa cases. Pero ok lang, importante eh nakauwi pa rin ako at ayun nakatulog ng semi normal. hehe After that half day shift, I went right away kay Ron Marc. Nangamusta at laro ng magic of course, mukhang kaunti na lang at pwede na to. Nagkamali ata ako sa sideboard eh. hehe Pero ok lang, nakabawi naman ako sa isang deck ko.
After that, of course I went home, pero dumaan muna ako sandali sa Trinoma, maraming tao pero madali naman ako nakauwi kasi di pa lahat ng tao nasa Manila na due to the long holiday. I got home and all of the sudden, Miles and Igz texted me, for another food trip. Do I have a choice? hehe Sira na naman ang diet ko, so I said sure, habang nakabihis ako. Si Ian di nakasama due to duty and Rheg was able to sneek out even what happened to them. Condolence bro...
So natuloy kami and went to Tempura, here at Banawe. Talked some things and ayun, bugbog na naman ako sa kanilang dalawa. Lagi na lang. hehe Nilaglag lagi ako kahat di naman totoo. hehe That's fine. So after eating a very delighted meal, punta daw kaming Starbucks. Of course, we went to the Banawe branch and it's jam packed. We went to Tomas Morato, then what do you expect in a Saturday night? Full and SRO only. hehe After Morato, we went to West Ave. and luckily, vacant yun sa taas, so kahit magwala kami dun, ok lang. hehe Anyway, so nagkwentuhan kami and everything went well. At least, walang drowing sessions. hehe Pero ok naman, at masaya, tapos etong Rheg na to, nagyaya pa ng Mister Kabab kahit sobrang busog na ko sa kinain namin sa Tempura. Pero do I have a choice?
So we went to Mister Kabab, ordered the same Keema with Eggplant and a career low of 2 breads. Then no shake kasi sa ininom namin in Starbucks, and I was very full as well. Maybe my diet is working a bit. hehe So, ayun di pa rin natapos ang laglagan then we went home safe and sound, pero siyempre, etong Rheg, gusto makakita ng tarpaulin ni Joy Belmonte. hahaha Kasi naman, may kamukha kasi yun Joy na yun somebody Rheg really fallen for. hahaha So there, di siya nakabingwit ng Tarpaulin pero masaya ang ungasis.
The End of an eventful Saturday.
Then here comes Sunday, simple, quiet and dull day. But it is a good time to rest I believe. I haven't eat any apples for quite some time now until this moment. hehe
The title of the blog is the blackswordsmann. Actually, it should be blackswordsman only due to the name of my fave character at an anime called Berserk. Pero siyempre, pag yun ang user name for sites, eh laging taken, I just added N at the end para blackswordsmann. Ayun, ako lang ang mayrun. hehe Ang totoo niyan, kahit counterstrike days, yun na ang gamit ko user name. Pero may story behind that. hehehe The "mann" is a person which Rheg gave me as a referral. Di to guy, hehehe one of the "failed" referrals of Rheg, wayback college. haha First year college to be exact. Siyempre, after failing to ADMU and UP and not taking the entrance in DLSU, I ended up in UST, luckily in Commerce. Anyway, that time, I was so shy and very unsocial. But good thing, etong si Rheg eh DLSU na, at mukhang maraming friends dun na chicks. hehe Eh siyempre, ang kapal ng mukha ko, nagpareto ako sa kanya. Eh mukhang ladies man na to si Rheg, so bigay agad ng isa. Ang bilis sabi ko, so sige naman, text text, tawag sa haws. Well, she was very nice, yet kinda radical, maybe because of what happened to her, or whatever. Basta, medyo kinda like her that time, because na rin sa ugali and Gemini kami pareho. hahaha 3 days lang ang pagitan ng birthday namin.
So ayun na, then one day, she will be going to UST daw for some convention something. So ako naman, todo prepared. hehe Buti naman, parang 2 subject lang kami that day which kinda normal kasi teachers where not there all the time, days in a week, because of our sked. Talagang PM sked lang kami, at ayun puro lakwatsa. hehe Alam na nung mga 2cpm gals ang buhay PM. hehe So ayun, I went right away to Tinoko Park, ahead of the agreed meeting time. hehe
I waited, and waited, then waited, and nobody showed up. She did not reply either. It was painful that time, because I almost waited hours, sana man lang nagtext na di na dadaan noh. hehe Pero ayun, sa sobrang bad trip that time, same week din, nagyaya ng inuman sila 2pel and ayun, tinext ko si Rheg na umiinom na ko dahil di ako mineet, Red Horse ang ininom ko. hahaha Di ko nga alam na tinext ko si Rheg, si Rheg pa nagsabi sa kin. Which until now, I don't remember doing that. Pero, well tapos na yun at wala na. Di na kami nagmeet or text or any communication from her.
I thought I won't meet her, even once. Just a glimpse of her, but until Rheg big birthday came around 2-3 years ago. Of course, punta ako dun since parang kapatid na turing ko kay Rheg, kahit lagi niya ako binubully. hahaha, Well, di ko matandaan ko sila pa ni TJ noon. hehehe Anyway, nagyaya siya, inuman, kahit may interview pa ko next day. Fresh Grad pa ko nun eh. hehe Maramin siya niyaya, from HS friends, best friends and college friends. Of course, I won't expect to meet somebody that time, from the past. hehe But all of the sudden, Rheg told me, pupunta daw si Mann sa party. Siyempre ako naman nagulat! Well, she did come, hmmmm di naman stunning beautiful, pero pwedeng pwede. hehe Ika nga ni Rheg, pasado sa standards ko. hahaha
We did not talk, at eto naman si Borreo, pinakilala sa kin, nahiya ako kasi malamang di na kilala nun. hahaha What a move! Pero anyway, ayun lang, ok na ko at nakita ko siya, even just a glimpse of her. At that time, well I am not lucky to a girl under a name of Maria. hehe After "Mann" someone followed and followed, well it is a long story of love, hope and despair before getting into a relationship which it was ended as well. Malas ata ako sa love, but life goes on, I think I will just enjoy being single for a while. Ika nga sa billboard ni Karylle, "Single is sexy."
That's why, memories are just memories, even it's happy or sad, its worth to keep. You learn from it, sometimes you use it. hehe
Yun lang, I will just play muna yun emulator, bringing back the old days. haha Sega and NES.
Good Sunday!
