End of Year Sentiments

I'm getting ready to say goodbye to the year 2012. It's been a crazy year. So many things has happened and so many things I've learned. I would say I've done a lot more now than I've ever done before, or maybe that's because I'm more aware of what's going on than the previous years. I've devoted part of this year to God, I've mingled with the dark side. I've left a job of responsibility, come into a lot of money (and lost a lot of money). I've gone back to the life of a subordinate, and I've slacked off worse than I have before. I've discovered what it's like to be in the middle of a marriage, and performed admittedly less than I expect of myself. I feel guilty in a way for wanting out and wanting something else, but I know for sure I want a different kind of story.

Too Much Worries

Well, I'm plagued by my worries once more. Here I am, still up at this time. I'm feeling hounded by the fact that we "have a job" but we're not starting just yet.  I'm kinda getting antsy. It does almost seem like the job is going to be given in July. I guess I shouldn't be feeling too worried because I keep thinking about God, and how He's going to help us. But I also keep thinking I might be feeling too confident, and I know I can still look for a job. I guess my only apprehension is if I should still go looking for a job. God has already provided me the perfect opportunity and the perfect working conditions. Well, maybe not perfect. LOL. But they are very favorable working conditions because of the proximity. Proximity to everything. I don't feel like I should look for another job. But I guess, if I get a call or something like that, then I still don't know. I'll probably do it. Oh well, God will tell me what to do one of these days. My ...

Waiting for The Word

If you check out my  Daily Devotion Page , you'll learn that I recently applied for a job, and well, I got hired. Now we're just waiting for the word. I guess they thought that we'd most definitely be sleeping or something. And besides, Friday has just begun. Wish us luck! We both need this job!

Spell WALANG KWENTA

I am DISGUSTED, APPALLED, IRRITATED BY Globe's Internet connection. They make people pay 2,300++ for this service? You can't even get much out of it! Not especially if you're a heavy downloader! They cut the bandwidth off after 7GB of download a day. It sucks! We could download 7 Gig worth of movies and series! And the sad part is, Jon is NOT going to stop downloading movies or series.  And I'm never going to experience proper Internet usage as long as this is going on.  But really, this service is the ultimate rip-off! I can't imagine anyone using this service! It's useless! I don't know how you're going to budget 7GB of work in a day if you have to.   I can't even update the website properly, and the server I signed up with is already a pretty good server! I mean, the website actually worked with the webhost. So I'm not feeling anything bad with this server. But with this kind of connection? I can hardly get anything done! I can't browse ...

Job Not Good

soWell, there goes another day wasted. Spent the day applying for a job. And was offered the basic pay from 2005.  Unbelievable. And I thought Silver City was not in the province. By the looks of things, it sure didn't look like a province to me. Furthermore, I know that Nuvali in Laguna has the same effect, but come on people, Pasig City is a City in Metro Manila right? So why the hell are they offering provincial rate pay?  I must have sounded like dork when I agreed with the 15,000 basic pay. I must have been kidding myself. Well, actually I was. I was bored hanging around, and I didn't want to hang around any longer. So when I thought I could make a quick getaway, I got called before I could step out. I didn't hang around any longer. I was hungry, and I regret going. :-( What a waste of money.  Jon and his other friends made it though. They were offered a better rate than I was. And the good thing is, they're offered positions at Q-Plaza, which is just like one ...

Don't Give Up on God, Because He Never Gave Up On You

This morning after I did my devotion, I scoured FB, and in a few seconds I was crying over this post. I was crying for all the people that didn't know or believe that God existed. I was crying because I am very close to someone who would often say when he was frustrated that God is not real. That there is No God.  He would dare say something like that, and then take it back after his anger has died down.  The post was very nice. It's a story actually. It goes like this: A LESSON LEARNED.....Why God Allows Pain This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen… A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation. They talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: “ I don’t believe that God exists.” “Why do you say that?” asked the customer. “Well, you just have to go out in t...

Palusot

Bata palang tayo, marunong na tayong magpalusot.  Naalala ko pa noong Prep palang ako, at halos paluin ako ng mga magulang ko dahil pinapasulat sa akin yung buong kanta ng Lupang Hinirang.  Hindi ko gaanong kabisado ang Lupang Hinirang noon, lalo pa't sa Saudi Arabia ako nag-aaral, at lahat ng batang kasama ko sa paaralan ay English ang wika. Kaya't ang pagkanta ng Lupang HInirang ay magagawa ko ng hindi pinag-iisipan. Ngunit kung ipaaalala mo sa akin, ay hirap na hirap ako. Kaya't pinipilit akong isulat ng buo ang pambansang awit na Lupang Hinirang, ay kung anu-anong palusot ang ginagawa ko, huwag ko lamang maisulat.   Kesyo kailangan ko ng maayos na papel, kesyo hindi natasahan yung lapis ko, hanggang sa kinuha ko ang magnetic pen drawing chenes upang doon isulat ang Lupang HInirang.  Gayon din ang nangyayari ngayon sa anak ko. Pinapatulog ko na siya sa kuwarto niya, kaso umiiwas siya. Mayron daw siyang ipapakita sa akin. Meron daw siyang ibibigay. Makikinig lang...

So Much for Job Hunting. Again

I went on an interview.  They tell me there's no opening for a Team Lead.  I was sitting there from 10 in the morning until 3 in the afternoon. And they tell me there's no opening for a team lead.  Sometimes, it gets to me how it can be really taxing to look for a job.  It's easy to forget that if you don't get the job, it only means it's not meant for you.  But this isn't like any other job.  This is an opening for a team lead post.  And they tell me they currently don't have any openings for team lead. It's not like a normal customer service position that I'm applying for. So I guess that's what makes it difficult. It's not a normal job. It's a job that not everyone can apply for.  It's a job that they don't process applicants for by group. It's something that takes time, and then they'll call you if they think you're okay for the job.  In any case, I should get over it.  I'm going to be referred by someone f...

Closing Up Shop

I'm happy to say that I stayed out of Facebook today as much as I can. I was really busy, until I realized there was actually something wrong with the website when I uploaded it. How did I realize this? I uploaded the original template, and messaged the webmasters for help.  I hope they get back to me on this. Anyhoo, I'm kind of tired. My laptop's battery isn't good for a full movie, but I think I'll sleep through it anyway.  I know my hubby hasn't been getting any action. I feel kind of bad about that. Oh well, in time. I'm really not in the mood for anything.  So this for now, more for later.  Note to self: always check oDesk for job updates. Sheesh.

Slow and Steady and All things Nice

While I'm sitting here nervously waiting for the files to upload via FTP, I've realized that I eat the usual amount of food, and I'm not currently doing anything or going anywhere. I have a feeling that I'm going to blow up in the next two months or so.  So far, the website I'm uploading is coming along pretty nicely. All the images that don't show up on the other web browsers are now showing up here. I have a feeling that if I try to upload them again, they'll work fine. But the web host I found right now is pretty much doing its job. We'll see until we get all the files up there. Okay, this is the part where I find out if I can jump for joy, or bury my head once more in my hands and try to figure out a way to do this. Of course, it was always easier to just have all the images hosted in one site, and then link everything back to my website. I don't know much about bandwidth, but I have not had problems with my weblog before. Here we go. Moment ...

So Much for Job Hunting

I hate myself. My husband and I decided we were going to go job hunting, but it's already 2:15 PM and we're scheduled to apply at 3:00 PM.  And there's nothing we can't do. We both woke up late at around 12:00 noon, and after fixing my daughter's breakfast, and fixing myself a mug of hot chocolate, it's already 2 in the afternoon! What the heck happened? I thought I had three hours? How was it possible? Well, okay, I do remember starting to move at around 12:30 something. But how is it already 2:00 PM? 2:18 to be exact? Where did the time go? I could have sworn I spent only about 30 minutes on daily devotion, and not more, so that would be around 1:30 finishing. How is it possible that I've been sitting here for the last 45 minutes doing nothing?  Well, I don't know what's going on, but I don't think I'll ever get anything good if we try to go now. It's too late I think. We'll be too late.  I would like to try tomorrow, but Jon is go...

Curious

Incidentally, I was wondering who was viewing my blog. I've only got 67 posts so far, and I already have 238 views. It must have been views from before, when I was starting my blog. I tend to read some stuff through it.  Unless someone's added me to their blogroll, and I didn't know about it.  So I Googled myself. Kinda creepy how so much information appears on the web.  It's not hard to think that employers would go as far as search your information to see what kind of person you are.  Now that is creepy.  I'm hearing Jon spout curses every now and then cause he's playing NBA 2K12.  Actually, the graphics is really good! I'm impressed! They got good rendering of the players when they're out-of-focus, the audience does pretty random actions, they even got the sneaker squeaks programmed in! Pretty awesome!  Well, I'm sort of looking for a job. I hope we can get one tomorrow.  Need to move our butts early tomorrow morning. Hope we land a job. ...

I Need to Get a Move On

Today we were supposed to go find a job. But we're still here.  I'm feeling sick again. I'm feeling like i"m getting another headache. I don't know what's wrong with me.  I think I want to go do some myLot, but I'm not really in the mood to think about other people's problems, or talk in any of the discussions. Actually I don't mind. Maybe I'm going to go find some discussions to answer.  Well, this for now, more for later.

Ironic

For a minute there, I thought that all my blogs were gone. It turns out, I was signed in to another Gmail account. No worries, got all my blogs back!  In other news, yeah so the hype about Manny Pacquiao's latest fight has died down. For the first time in 7 years, Manny Pacquiao lost by Split Decision to Timothy Bradley. It was totally unexpected, and even Bradley himself wasn't expecting to win.  He admitted how he lost to Pacquiao, and how he got hurt by Manny's punches.  All of a sudden, there goes the announcement that there is a NEW welter-weight champion. (Was it welterweight? I don't remember). I felt something go wrong when Michael Buffer announced the scores. I was like, wait a minute, what? Why was it like that? And that's when I found out that the reason the scores were alike from the 2nd and 3rd judge was because Bradley had won.  As a friend on Facebook said, and I quote, So this is how you upset an entire nation. Interesting.  Yeah, well, it wa...

The Blah Days Ahead

I haven't been feeling stellar lately. (Maybe that's because I'm no longer employed there!) But anyways, I was sick and had loose bowel movement.  Right now, I still have that dull headache in the right side of my head. I'm working on some stuff for Laine. Or I was working on some stuff for Laine. I need to get a move on the Sulit ads and the website. But I think it's because I've been spending suddenly too much time in front of the laptop. I think I have to tone down the brightness of my laptop. Well, I did that. I think it helped a little bit.  So right now, I'm pretty bored. Oh, that's right, I remembered. I want some soda. I think I'm going to go get myself some soda. Or, rather Jon went to get me some soda.  Okay, so going back. I still have a bunch of stuff to do for the website. For starters, I haven't even finished doing the Home page. I've got about 5 other pages to work on, and it's going at a slow pace. I should probably st...

Mobile Back to Oblivion

I was going over some of my posts, and I read about how I lost interest in my mobile phone. Well, now that I got Internet connection and a laptop, and even a desktop, well, I have put my mobile phone to rest. Now I hardly update anything using my phone. I will miss having Lightbox on my phone, but Instagr.am doesn't work on my phone. So my phone's battery gets a rest from being played too much or being used Internet on too much.  I hardly touch my phone anymore, unlike before. Now I can go back to normal Internet life.  Well, now I have picked up a job at oDesk.com. I'm not sure if it's something I can do right now. I mean, after all, it's an easy $5.00. All I got to do is review some techy site. So I'm going to concentrate on that for now. I need to break down my time and everything. So here goes. I'm getting off the blogosphere for the moment, and will get back to you after a few hours! This for now, more for later.

Settling In

I am psyching myself for the laundry that I have to face today.  I need to find a dry cleaning service nearby, and I need to get a head on the laundry right now.  So anyway, I do have a list of things to do: - laundry - dry cleaning - go to Marikina, Wrap my daughter's books and stuff - Laine's business card - Get a head on the website.  I think I might actually need like, a schedule of events so that I can keep in touch with what I'm going to do.  Incidentally, I might need to do some research on if I can upgrade the laptop's parts. I sure would like to get some higher ram into this thing. This for now, more for later.

Job Hunting Online Sucks!

Okay, so I was job hunting, or attempting to job hunt. I'm feeling quite under the weather, so I'm not really up to applying myself right now. What I really want to do is watch something that requires less thinking. Something along the lines of Twilight. I'm probably gonna watch the 2nd or 3rd installment. Whichever contains the love story between Bella and Edward. I've been watching Vampire movies for a while now.  Tomorrow, we're planning to apply to this job. We're supposed to go there at 3PM. So I need to ready Tyrese's stuff. I know I should be downloading shit right now like the pictures, and everything. But I'm going to have to transfer them to my laptop. I know there's something such as drop box. Maybe I could use that instead so that I can access the files.  So this for now, more for later. The keyboard is an absolute dream! I love it! It's pretty old school: bit, chunky, sinks deep. But it's absolutely soft, and I love typing on...

Spell S-L-O-W

Ugh. Either my laptop is REALLY slow, or the Internet isn't working the way it's supposed to. That's mainly why I'm blogging from my phone. To begin with, I'm unable to access speedtest.net. Actually, no. I AM able to access it, I just can't run a speed test because the configuration's gone haywire or something. I'm not sure what's eating up my RAM, I'm suspecting either Mozilla or Chrome, I'm not sure which.  Sio basically i think I'm trying to conserve my RAM usage? I don't know.  Anyway, enough about that. So today, I was busy sending in applications for An online, home-based job. It's kinda agitating waiting for a response, and I do have one other job Lined up, but I think I'm going To need a headset for that, so I'm going to try and buy One that can do that.  I'm quitE tired. Seeing as how I only have about 5 hours of sleep. And I'm not exactly looking forward to bringing Tyrese to church, but I would love for...
Well, I finally got a laptop, and my Internet connection is finally up and running. I love how I don't have to worry about myLotting anymore, how I can fully check Facebook, how my thumbs won't have to hurt as much trying to say what I have to say. I have to admit, I only got about 5 hours of sleep, and I'm due to go to church at around 9:00 AM, or earlier since I haven't printed the calendars up yet, I'll still need to photocopy the calendars. Unless Angel helpfully has done something about it. In any case, I'm freer now. I'm just worried about the RAM of my laptop being able to take what I usually do here. I'm going to be editing web pages, hopefully getting an online job soon.  But I know it's not going to sustain our lifestyle. At least, it's better than nothing. I was just computing how much I could possibly get from this online job that I signed up for.  It's pays $2.00 an hour for an 8 hour shift. That's about $16.00 a day.  I...

The End Has Finally Approached

A week after my official separation from the company and I still feel aS if I werE part of the company that I left. But a few hours ago, my phone kept notifying me that the password to my work email wasn't working, and needed to be reentered to access the email. I knew that keeping the account synced to my phone would be useless. And so I removed the account from my phone. It was quite sad that I had to do it. I wouldn't be able to check emails coming into my phone.  I won't know what's going on with Stellar. And pretty soon, i will have to find a joB. I'm actually working on that. I'm afraid where I'll end up. I didn't used to care before, but after being with a company for Almost five years, it matters where i will continue my working life. Oh well, good to know that the hubby isn't feeling efFed up.  This for now, more For later. Need to find a blanket! Sent from Samsung Mobile

Haven't Done This in a While

Well, I hate to say it, but it seems like the charm of my phone is already gone. I don't really feel like blogging or even going on myLot on my phone. But really, it was fun while it lasted.   I'm watching Mikey Bustos singing on the local noon time variety show. It's kinda funny. He doesn't look like he fits what he's singing. There's a girl after him that doesn't seem to know what she's doing. In any case I've got a new laptop now. Well, it's technically 2nd hand.  The good thing is by tomorrow I'll probably have Internet connection. I can finally sign up for Odesk. And I can start buying clothes for my online store. :) I think it's the selection of oNline clothes that makes or breaks the online store. Hopefully, my online storE takes off. :) Sent from Samsung Mobile

The Amazing Race Continues

Looking for the perfect make up for the 19th is absolutely driving me nuts. I'm no longer interested in searching for the lngest wearing lipstick. I just want something that's going to stay on my face for as long as the ceremony and the party. Of course, I would very much want something that seems cemented on my face so that I would still look presentable in the pictures.  But looking at other people's profiles on facebook can really be tiring. I'm so tired of searching for one seller of foundation and lipgloss and it's driving me craazy .I don't want to have to get my stuff from two different people because of the shipping fee, so I'm trying to buy them from one seller. Unfortunately, no one is carrying Revlon Colorstay and Maybelline superstay together. Gawd, it's so frustrating. I know that I can eventually try Mac, but not when the wedding is sooo near and when I am on a strict budget. Oh well.   This for now, more for later. Sent from Samsung Mobile...

The Amazing Race for Foundation

Gahhh!! I'm tired of trying to look for where I can buy cheap foundation! I actually have 2 foundations in my makeup bag. To tell you the truth, I didn't even give a shit about fondies (see, I've adapted the pet name for it as well) until my cousin's wedding. I'm seriously confused, I have a few days to try this stuff. Well, I'm going out Monday night, so we'll see if I'll actually get anything from this fondie stuff. I've already tried one of them.  1. Maybelline Clear Smooth Aqua Gel Foundation - not exactly for working out in the sun, or in hot humid places. But it's pretty okay, and good for people with pretty good complexion.  It doesn't last all hours, if any only lasts about a good four hours. I've tried setting it with all-in-one shine free cake powder, but when I get to the office I eventually sweat if off. 2. Avon Ideal White Dual Powder Foundation - I put this on top of my current face, with the maybelline stuff. I put it on ab...

Bakit Wala Akong Kwenta

Napipilitan lang ako makipag sex sa kanya. 3. Hindi siya ang focus ko.Parating kong inuuna ang ibang bagay. Parati kong inuuna ang ibang tao 4. Hindi ko siya nalalambing.

Yung fact na tuwing mag aaway kami, parati akong walang kwenta. Parati akong manhid, malamig, hindi marunong maglambing etc., etc. Hinding hindi ko magagawa yun lalo pa kung badtrip ako. Pero oras na hindi ko magawa yun, wala na akong kwentang tao. Siya pinagmamalaki ako sa ibang tao. Gagawin niya lahat maging masaya ako. Eh ako magagawa ko ba yun? Gagawin ko ba ang lahat maging masaya siya? Magkaiba kami ng perspective sa buhay. Magkaiba kami ng tingin sa mga bagay bagay. Para sa kanya dapat may ginagawa ako to prove na ...

Still Loving My Phone

I still can't get over my phone. I am so loving the way it works.  I hope I'm not running the battery or it's life span down because I keep going on the Internet with it. But that's only because I don't have a computer. I bet by the time I get a computer, I won't be spending so much time on my phone logging in, or paying a high price for mobile load.  Anyway, I realized that I need to get a job soon.  I'm not sure I'm going to like coming home with no pay, and just Jon paying for everything. I need a job to sustain our life. Definitely can't afford not to have a job. I don't like the idea that I'm going to wait for Jon to come home and bring home the money. I still would like to put up my own clothing store business. *sigh* all the possibilities. Man, How I wish I could put up a clothing store business. I know it's small, but it's still extra income. I wonder If I buy 5k or een just 3k worth of clothing.  Then I can sell it online for...

I've turned Troll

I don't know what is up, but I'm trying to get myself intersted in the myLot discussions, and I'm not feeling any spark! I've been trolling FB, and I went over to myLot just to quit trolling to no avail.  So I ended up blogging. I know I should be sleeping, but I think I lost sleep already, if you know what I mean. I still need to force myself to go to sleep because I still got shift and the energy drink ain't working anymore. Oh well, so much for that. Jon's on his way out. God bless my husband.

Bored Again

Well, i can't think of anything to do. Oh, I just remembered that there is one thing I like about the blackberry.  You can program it so that when you type abbreviations, it automatically expands. I really appreciate my phone because I don't have to pay for it anymore because it's already paid for! By the end of this month, I will have paid off my debts! And I'm going to be debt free! I'm so loving it!  I keep wondering what my next job will be? Do I work at home? This is the only job that i know to do. I don't think I want to become an agent in the field of customer service again. I would like to try Sutherland because it's in Cubao. But I don't want to be in a sales account. I keep wondering what I could get from going to CIQ. Is it worth it? I heard they're hiring Team Leads. I'm going to start looking for a job I guess. Maybe I should prep by submitting my resume in other companies. Do I want to become a team leader again? Is it going to be w...

Dear God,

Thank you for keeping all the evils at bay today. I know I splurged money that was suposed to be spent on food. Please teach me to learn how to control.  Please bless Flor's family. It seems like she has a problem with her family. I know that the reasons are partly selfish and I wish that she doesn't leave us. I am asking that you keep her with us for a while. Lord, bantayan niyo po ang kanyang mga anak. Sana huwag din po sila mahirapan. Kailangan ko po sana ang tulong niya dito sa bahay. Alam ko pong dito lang nman ako sa bahay. Pero nakikiusap po ako. Lord I have faith in you that you will show us the way. I understand if there will not be meant for us. Sometimes, it's hard on the soul. But I do wish that you would allow Flor to stay with us longer. Thank you Lord once more especially for keeping the evils at bay and not allowing them to make this house miserable for a night.

Decisions, decisions

One: should I eat or go to sleep? The longer I decide, the longer it'll take for me to fall asleep. Two: I have decided to let the make up artist use whatever foundation he or she is planning and just get the elf cosmetics lock and set stuff. I'm sure going to regret not buying the foundation, but I'm going to be pretty broke for it. So yeah. Now i Have money to buy a dress, I better actually buy a dress and go shopping for Jon's barong.  Sent from Samsung Mobile

Blogging Again?

Yes, well I'm tired of surfing now. I'm not even in the mood for myLotting. I'm not sure why. Well, I'm sitting in my chair trying to figure out what the hell to do. Tomorrow is my 2nd day off. Jon's going to host a small get together for his birthday. I think I'm hungry, and I already scarfed down most of the kropek. What got me tired about surfing was trying to find the perfect foundation and eye shadow. My cousin informed me that there is going to be a make up artist, but if the make up artist's make up isn't going to stay on my face for long, then what's the point right? But they should know better, they're make up artists. Although I would enjoy if they used some long staying make up and my face didn't look stupid. Or old. Or gross.  Well I'm looking at my foundation and I see that so far it's doing its job. I put it the first season of The Big Bang Theory. So many people like it, but I don't enjoy it that much.  I'm alre...

Bored.

Is this what's going to happen to me once I'm out of a job??? I'll be sitting home with nothing to do? I don't have a computer so there's no way for me to be busy with stuff.  I would like an online store but imagine how much it would cost me to buy stuff on hand and sell them. Clothes too. While I'm home, I certainly would like to make sure that I'm earning. Perhaps I could make a living out of it. Shopping and selling and earning while I'm at it.   I'm sort of dreading it. Oh dear. I don't know what kind of business would do me good. But I would really like to set store in a loan thing. Maybe I should put money in church.  Sent from Samsung Mobile

Cover Girl Outlast All day Lip Color

Just a short, surprising discovery.  I was practicing on make up for my cousin's wedding day, when I found the CG lip color that I bought from a friend a few months back.  At that time I was super disappointed because although the lip color promised 16 hours of long wear, it seemed that I wasn't through half of my 8 hour office shift, and the lip color would be cracking and be gone by the time I applied the second or third moisturizing stick.  So i tried it again earlier just to test it once more, although I already knew what the results were. After I putit on, I had to admire the way the color stayed on my lips, and sat there for a few minutes pondering my look.  The yaya came home and I was embarrassed to be found all made up, so I quickly scrubbed my eye make up off, and, accidentally throwing the cotton ball with oil away, attempted to scrub off the lip color from my lips with some tissue. I wasn't given time to be really irritated because the lip color didn't se...

No Discussions For Now

MyLot website is down at the moment.  So it's back to blogging.  Just an update on what's going on.  I. WORK Right now I'm in the process of finishing my documentation so that I may be able to do the endorsements. I still need to complete my table of contents.  Angel helped me earlier, and she was going through one of the easier agent files so it wasn't much of a task for her. Although, it was for me and believe it or not, I'm not finished doing kuya Cesar's files.  I've finished the soft copies. By next week, the audit starts so I'll have to make sure I'm done by then.  II. WEDDING PREPARATIONS I now have the start of make up collection. I got some really pale eye shadow. I found some makeup palettes online, and I'm wondering if it's worth it buy make up online, or just get make up from the mall. I do need some mall time. But Jon's being such a bitch lately that I can't do any of those without him being a prat. Well, I realized I nee...

Let The Rain Fall Down

Didn't think it was possible, but yes. The rain is falling.  Good weather to be in, although I'm worrying about the weather tonight when I come in for my shift. I would like to dress up as most of the team leads were given a talking to Earlier by our boss because most of us were wearing jeans.  I suppose not everyone felt the need to wear corporate get up. Well, I for one don't feel the need to wear corporate get up because, hello, the clients only come in during the early night shifts. Then they're gone by morning. So basically, no client is going to see me in my get up. But if one team lead should wear corporate attire, then I suppose so should I. Anyway, I'm waiting for Jon to step out of the bathroom. As usual he went to bed drunk. Now he's got to take a pee. So much for my sleep.  This for now, more for later. Sent from Samsung Mobile

Earning Big Quick!

No, not a helpful post. Just a feel good post! :) My myLot account is doing so well! Now that I don't encounter any errors when I'm posting, I'm actually able to respond to discussions in a major way. Just yesterday, I was able to make 0.30 cents! That's pretty major for me! I used to make pennies. Now I make 30cents by responding to the comments! It's such a good feeling to do so. Thanks so much to God who gives me the inspiration. By the way, I do thank God for allowing me the opportunity to be part of the Music Ministry. I tremendously enjoy learning God's songs, songs of praise and worship! It's very enlightening and truly satisfying! Well, I better crash now. Still got shift tonight! Sent from Samsung Mobile

Resting

Notice how I haven't been blogging for a few days now? Well, I've finally hit my 500th mark on myLot so I haven't been encountering any problems lately. Still my fingers remain crossed as I don't want to jinx anything.   Been hitting myLot in a major way, and I'm glad to see my bux rising up 10 cents a day. Feels good, and I intend to make the most out of it now.  This for now. More for later. Sent from Samsung Mobile

Awwww...

The worship leader isn't here.. Oh well, I'm not sure how to go about practice like this when the worship leader isn't about. I don't know most of the kids anyway. And also, I'm being eaten up by my shyness. It's kind of funny. But oh well. Good thing I didn't really get ready. After all tomorrow is Sunday. But I guess the reason that worries me much is the fact that I don't know the songs they'll be singing tomorrow. So if there's no practice tonight, I might be a goner.. Oh dear.. I was watching Manny Pacquiao try to help this studio contestant get money. Oh well, now he has 40k. Which is supposed to be good because he'll be able to do something with the money. Which by the way, I need to think up of a business.  It's hard to have instant money. Jon's eyes glitter every time we talk about it. He wants to do so many things, but this is a one shot thing. I hope it becomes lucky. I'm really afraid of starting a business. I want to ...

Late Again

Won't I ever learn? I just came back from leave, and now this. Really. I need to speak to myself about this. I need to change my attitude. It's getting awfully tiring. I'm getting tired of it. My agents will be wondering where i am. Anyway, here I am taking a coffee break. I should think about bringing a mug. This isn't helpful.  Sent from Samsung Mobile

Pakshet

Tanong mo ko bat gising pa ko. Tangina kasi si Jonatahan na kupal ginising ako. Pakshet. And for what?? Para ayusin yung gamit niya. Dalawang bagay lang yan eh.  You either really need my help Or You're being a bitch because you're effing drunk.  Need a hint? Of course not! It's Jonathan! He's a bitch because he's effing drunk! So he yells at me to get up and fix his stuff for him.  Okay. So if you had just fallen asleep and you were suddenly yelled at for no apparent reason at all, you'd be confused right? And then to get up so that you can find out that it's for some stupid reason, that's gonna piss you off right? Knowing this for a fact, would you do that to someone? If you didn't really want to piss anyone else off would you yell at them to get up? Of course not. But if you were really being a bitch you wouldn't care if this person got angry right? Remember you get pissed off when your sleep gets cut off. Ergo, other people may get pissed whe...

Way Past My Bedtime

Well, it's way past my bed time. Jon's talking about he realized that he loved his daughter and everything and how Eminem's song changed him and his attitude about his daughter. He talks about how he wants to change and how other idols of his have become Christian.  I realized that this person just 'likes' these people, not totally idolZes them. He admires what they do, but doesn't aspire to be like them. I realized I need to pray for him. God, if I could only remember to do that once in a while.  Sent from Samsung Mobile

The Wedding is Near!!

I just realized that my cousin's wedding is near.. I need to look fairly impressive. Of course, a diet on mainly soda isn't going to help. I wonder if I should start on a water diet? Ugh.  Projected expenses: * a decent long lasting foundation - possibly Php 1500, powder included. Hope Jon doesn't kill me. * a dress for myself - looking at Php600 bucks. Not really expecting to have to spend much on clothes * decent lipstick - Php 300 (will need to bring baby oil and tons of tissue when I go shopping for make up. And need to fix the rest of my face so that the good lipstick doesn't look icky with a grungy face) * shoes!! PHP400 - NOT going to spend more when I know I'm going to use it for one day only. And Something wedged because there is no way in hell I'm walking down anything in stilettos. OMG. This is almost Php 3000! I might have to kill myself! I'm going to need all of my TOIL put together so I don't use up any of my VLs. Thank goodness I still hav...

Job Hunting

I can't believe I'm actually considering going job hunting. I was nlne looking for customer service jobs. Uggghhh.. I don't want to go back as an agent, but I don't want to be a team lead anymore. Maybe I could start as an agent again and work my way up to become a team leader.  Or I could go back to the relay world and then be a team lead there! Lol.. nah I don't wanna be a team lead in the same company. If I'm going to do the team leading thing again, it better be somewhere else. Sent from Samsung Mobile

Jobless Soon

Well, I've received word that I'm about to be jobless before the next month ends. It's not official yet, but I seriously have not considered my options at that time. I fully intend to make the most of the 'vacation' I might be taking. I'll probably let a friend of mine loan from me. I'm planning to put most of the money in a bank. Two separate savings account. I'm still clueless as to what business I'm going to delve in. But I think I ant to start small, and not jump into the frenzy of businesses. I'm quite afraid, to tell you the truth and I might be in over my head.  I don't fully trust my husband in terms of anything because he is very very compulsive. It's as if he wants to be able to do everything at a drop of a hat. He keeps jumping on ideas that he just gets at the spur of the moment. He keeps forgetting that he's not the guy he was before he had a family. Oh sure he likes to settle down and all, but he's most of the time t...

Tyrese on Android

I was going to post this on FB, but people might think I'm being such a snob.  But the fact remains that half of my RAM and sd memory is taken up by her games and activities. I've downloaded games to keep her occupied. She's already a pro at memory, and she likes puzzles.  She can easily figure out where to place them. Perhaps tomorrow I'm going to try for something a little more difficult. I do want to start her on the alphabet so that when she gets to school she won't have a hard time.  On another note, Jon is such a BITCH when he's drunk it's completely annoying. I hate it when he's drunk. He always picks on us. Well, this for now. More for later. Sent from Samsung Mobile

Thumbs a' hurtin..

I don't have much to say. My thumbs hurt a little bit. That's because I used my phone to take notes from today's preaching. I was trying to type as fast as I can but it really hurt.  Service was a bit difficult earlier. I was familiar with only four of the songs. I need to buy myself a data cable so that I won't have to worry about downloading the songs for when we practice. I do appreciate when we practice every Saturday because then I can still listen and familiarize myself with the songs.  I do thank God for the opportunity given to me for being part of the music ministry. I don't know if I'll still be part of the music ministry since we'e downsizing the members. I might get assigned to a different ministry.  That's okay. I cherish every moment that i am a part od the music ministry and will never ever regret it. If I'm transferred to another ministry, I would remember and cherish every moment that I'm allowed to stay. I love the music ministr...

Still Thanful

Up to now, I'm still thankful that I got this phone. I had to take out a loan for it, but I'm so thankful I got it. I get my daily dose of the Internet. I keep up with my e-mails. And as long as I remember to use wifi when I download stuff, I can freely go online whenever I need it. Of course it's limited. But it's entertainment that totally keeps me busy.  Now I can blog whenever I want, I can check ofice email, I'm not totally limited. I also have a bible for daily devotion.  And a diary that I can put my thoughts into if I'm not blogging.  I haven't tried a blackberry, but what do I need a blackberry for? I can stil get conneted withmy friends and not have to pay for blackberry service. I'm not tied down to any monthly subscription plan that will force me to either sacrifice the budget or run out of another provider. It's so worth it.  I thank God for allowing me this phone. I do pray that He let's me keep this phone.  I so love this phone. I ...

Just got home from errands. Jon and Tyrese went out for a swim. Glad to see her out and about. Anyway, I would love to go to service tomorrow.

Hanging out The Old House

I'm here in Marikina after picking my eldest daughter up from her swimming classes.  I know I promised to go find a dress, but I'd very much rather go home and rest. I want to sleep actually.  Maybe I'll go home a little later. After all, I'm not hearing from Jon or Flor. Guess they may be having fun. They're probably getting drunk. Jon and his wavemates, I mean. Not Jon and Flor.   I don't mind staying home. Heck, I being HOME ALONE.  Which is why I shooed them out the door as soon as I could. Well, I'm going to put off looking for the perfect dress later. Probably tomorrow. So i'm going to rest for a while. This for now, more for later! Sent from Samsung Mobile

MyLot Fix

I was over on myLot reading about the previous news about how this call center agent got her customer's information and used it to buy some items.  The agent said that she needed the money because she was a single mother and needed to put a child through school. Sometimes I pity people like that. They don't realize what they already have, they don't realize that they should be content or that they should stick with the budget. I admit. I've been in that situation a lot of times before.  We've gone to as long as having no money for milk or diapers for our newborn, for being kicked out of our apartment because we couldn't pay the rent, for selling all our gadgets and going for weeks with no phone because we needed the money. I remember thinking how I wish I didn't buy certain items, how I wish that if I didn't pay out of budget, or overshot our grocery budget with things we didn't neet, or could live without, we wouldn't be in a bind. I do no...

The Summer Sickness

Even if I didn't join the company outing, a dip in the pool or the beach is really making itself known.  Jon is taking Tyrese to the pool. A bunch of his friends and he are making their way to San Mateo to go for a dip. Well, i don't see why they shouldn't. After all, tit's a really hot weather. I would go, but I'm not exactly in the pool mood. Not after saying no to the company outing. I'd very much just stay here and enjoy the comfort of the bed. And then I realized I won't be able to do so because I've gotta go meet up with my parents. Oh well, that's that. We'l see what happens.  Sent from Samsung Mobile

Business.. Sigh

Wala talaga akong ka-amor-amor sa business. My goodness. So many ideas, but none of which I have confidence in. There are so many things we could set up, but I don't know if my parents would want something like it.   I talk about how I want to set up my own business, or negosyo. But I don't know why I can't. I still want to do the clothing business thing. After all, I do have a page on FB. I want to try the food industry, the transpo inustry, I want the clothing industry. I have one shot. I guess that's what's making me worry about it. Maybe I should just put the money in the bank or something like that. What good would a trike do if it's not in some place really needed? It should be out there, the guy driving must know the ins and outs. Or a jeep. Clothes won't get me much. The only chance I have is in stocks. I could start small and talk with some people. I do know people who know about stocks. It would be a good investment. Oh well, need to pray on this...

Eyes Tired But Still Going

This is how addicted I am to Mobile Internet: I've been up since 11pm the previous night, I went to work, and I'm up again tonight. My eyes are already droopy, and I really feel like going to sleep. There isn't anything important to browse, but I'm still wasting my data plan over this. I would like to subscribe to all data plan for my phone, but I don't have any idea which subscription offers that. I need to find out. Also, I know I mentioned I might considering bying a smart sim card for Internet mainly, but it should't be a problem since it's going to come with unlimited texing a few number of minutes for calls. But most important is that it comes with big data plans. The higher you pay the more mb you get. Or more appropriately, the longer you subscription the larger data usage you are free to consume.  Oh well, I'm going for a smoke. This more for later!

Near Free

I am beginning to get tired of checking facebook. I don't even follow up on twitter. I'm almost regularly using foursquare, but I can imagine what people will think if I keep checking into the same place everyday. I mean that's where I work so I am there everyday. Should I really be sharing all that information with other people? Oh well, if I get tired of it, I won't be checking it any longer. Anyway, I'm in the middle of lunch.

My Lot is Giving me a Hard Time

Unbelievable. I can't post long responses on myLot since I'm using a mobile phone. So I have to make do with blogging for now. I would like to write a review, though about the Samsung Galaxy Y Pro.  Maybe I'll  look for some cell phone websites and see what they got so far.  This for now, more for later!

New Stuff, Yeah

Well, I'm still up. I have a new phone! It's like a blackberry but it's touch screen! It's the new Samsung Galaxy Y Pro! Now, I'm not a fanatic of touch screen phones and the first time I bought a touch screen phone was when I bought the Samsng Corby Pro. (By the way, I realized that I keep purchasing the Pro Series of Samsung!) Anyway, going back, I seriously love this phone. I don't think characters are limited now in e-mail, so I can have longer posts. But the battery really runs out quick especially if you connect to the Internet. Also, i realiZed that I use up so much data since I've been downloading stuff and checking you tube. I'm seriously considering bringing my charger with me.  Anyway, again on the overall I really really like this phone. I don't see the need to sign up for a pla. Why get a plan when you have a perfectly good phone that can run on prepaid just as well? Plus you are not obligated to pay any bills, just load up when you can....

Friday the 13th

Well, admittedly the day isn't over, but like I said in FB and twitter, today is seemingly living up to it's cliche. I was late for shift, then I Jon went to work with the house keys in his pocket so I had to go back to the office (since his office is in the same building). Plus, we were supposed to get a new phone, since funds weren't available, I'll have to give up on that idea. But today, the pants I've been considering to buy were still available in the ukay2 store, so I decided to buy it. And the good thing is, it's 25 bucks cheaper. All in all, walking around the mall sure got me bushed. Tomorrow's gonna be a pretty busy day, so I better get plenty of sleep tonight. Good Night, everyone!

When Life Gives You Lemons

It sucks having to try to download a bunch of fake stuff for your phone. Downloading apps has never been this difficult. I was planning on getting this android phone, but really what am I going to use it for anyway? I have a perfectly fine working phone I don't really need a new one. What I actually need is a computer. I'm actualy considering buying Angel's computer. I could give it to Alex after I get the VRP pay. I think that would be a much better deal. Lately, I also find myself quite easily tired. I feel like I only have energy to do up to two things in a day. Should I be exercising? Should I be working out? Should I probably quit smoking? Something to consider. I don't understand why people go back to their habit of smoking after not doing it for a while. I wonder what Govz would be like if she quit smoking. I wonder if I would ever be able to maintain it.

Just Because

Just blogging on the new Opera Mini Browser..

Letter to God

Dear Lord, I'd like to thank you for all the blessings I've had for the past couple days. It's actually been a trying week for me: I don't feel like working in the office, I don't have energy to work actually. I guess it's because I lack sleep. Right now, I don't feel too much contentmet. I'm trying to figure out what's supposed to make me content, but even with the gatherings and outings that I have lined up for this week, they don't seem to uplift my spirit. What do I have lined up? Well, on the 14th, I'm meeting up with my friends to 'celebrate' Jaxs' birthday. Then on the 19th, I'm meeting up with my ex-team members. On the 21st, there's the summer outing. And then it's back to work. But things seem to be looking up because we have a new housekeeper. So that should allow me to sleep better. I would like to be able to sleep better nowadays, would greatly appreciate it. I am kinda looking forward to it.

Duh to You

Sometimes I don't understand but Jon likes seeing me work my back off. He's easily affected when I'm supposed to spend the day with him and end up coming home late that he feels it's only proper to have me pay back by being very visibly tired. I don't appreciate being hounded when I'm out of the house. I especially mind when he keeps harrassing me to come home because he is home alone, drinking. I don't hound him when he goes out thought! I mean come on. Sometimes I don't care where you go for the day. You wanna hang out with your friends? By all means! Do so! I've been trying to get you out of the house for months, and each time you spend time out of the house, I find relief. Anyway, this for now, ore for later.

Breathing Better

I'm so happy to get my phone back. I just wanna log into the Internet and ceck on what's up with other people. I really should be doing something more productove, but no worries, I'm working on it. I hope I get a new phone. Yeah, okay I know I have a relatively new phone, it's not even 2 months old. It's just a month old, and now I'm planning to get a new phone. But I'm going to get a phone which I've had my eye on for quite a while now. It's an android phone, I can get Internet access, and the best part is I can check my emails. I mean it's provided fr most data plans on other networks, so I'm banking on the hope that it can provide me my emails. I'm also hoping for faster browsing. Well this for now, more for later. I've got to get the room cleaned up!

Internet At My Fingertips

Not quite the cliche, but now I'm very appreciative of these phones that can access the internet, and I'm very happy that my cell provider even covers internet connection with my load. Anyway, I was wondering about using mylot. I mean, I just gotta avoid hitting enter whenever I respond to some entries. I need to try and see if I can respond as long as there are characters available. I'll look fr a few discussion I can join and then hit the sack since it's getting pretty late.

I'm sitting here doing the laundry. I'm very exhausted because I haven't been sleeping well, and to make matters worse, I don't feel like I'm connecting with work. I need to get back on the horse. I need to start focusing on the fact that I do still

Can't Keep My Hands Off

Seriously, since I got my phone back, I couldn't keep my hands off blogging. I'm actually supposed to be asleep by now. But I can't help it. I'm just so happy. I bought a memory card and now I can stock up on all the Christian songs that I can listen to. I'm going to try to download a whole bunch while we're at Laine's. The Katinas have the most awesome music. It's incredible. I need exposure to more of these songs, helps me pray every night. Again, dear God, I want to thank you for everything you've given for me and for my family. You always provide and in the little ways, we are able to survive. I am thankful that we don't have anything bad to worry about for the moment. Please bless us and grant us your grace so that we may do things for you glory. Now I understand why a lot of people scoff at this idea: it's because they don't know what they're missing! So goodnight everyone! This for now, more for later!

Getting Back on Track

I'm so happy to have my phone back. I've been blogging from my email, and if anyone checked my personal blog, they'd also see a blooper which is when I mistakenly forwarded my blog to my own email, and then forwarded it back, causing my personal email address to appear. In any case, things have been so crazy! Just recently Jackie's dad passed away. He was feeling really down after Jackie passed away; he was very heartbroken, and I know it hurt us all to see what he was going through. I know it must be hard on the family; doubly hard on tita. well this for now, more for later. Got some texting to do..

At a Loss for Words

So I'm expected to write this speech for my best friend who passed away over three weeks ago.  I'm supposed to say it at her funeral.  But the truth is, I don't know what to say. After accepting the Christian Life, I have no words of comfort that might help anyone who knew my best friend.  Well, I know that she believes in God, and she knows there is Jesus Christ.  But does she know that she was supposed to ask for forgiveness for her sins? Did she know that it might do her good to read the bible? To pray? To believe that she went to Heaven or she was accepted by the Father? I'm no expert in the Christian Faith. I'm new to it, and I'd like to do everything I can to secure myself to make sure that I'm ready when I'm called. In the Christian faith I know that you must accept Christ as your savior (however that's supposed to be, I still haven't figured out if that means I realize that Jesus Christ is my way out, and I've got to do everyth...

Silent Treatment

I think we could all use a form of Silent Treatment.  Not the kind that you give to someone else.  In fact, the kind where you don't think at all, don't speak to anyone, don't accept feedback from anyone.  I think this is the best kind of treatment one could find to help themselves get over troubles that they're going through. I could sure use a lot of Silent Treatment.  Especially right now.  I don't want to think about the recent program that our company tried to implement which was supposed to help the business financially in the long run, and which trundled upon our morale in a big way.  I don't want to speak to anyone about that program, and I'm afraid that if I hang out with someone, I will have to speak to them about that program.  Please, please please spare me the agony of having to understand why you feel cheated, when in fact, you are going to get something at the end of your stay here? It's very unfair to everyone who won't be able t...
