My Little Mumbles

I received a call this afternoon. Gawd! I thought it was just an ordinary call from a landline - turned out to be that its from Emerson. I sent my resume to them last week and I really wasnt expecting them to reply this fast. Its not that I do not like to work in my present company anymore. This is a career move and I want to work on a company that is in line with the course I finished. I want to be trained as a Computer Engineer and I want to achieve something more that what I can do now, and most of all I want to grow...(go grow glow!^^)

I was shivering as I took the call and got tongue tied as I try very hard to converse in English. Speaking fluently in english is really one of my weaknesses. I cant finish three sentences without the Uhm's, Ahs, etc. The caller (her name is Julie) asked me the usual questions about myself, the company I work to and the job I do. And then she scheduled me for an exam this Friday at 10:30 AM! Aaaaaaaaaargh! Im so excited and nervous at the same time. I am really reaaaaally not used to being interviewed and interrogated!!! ! So here I am still awake at the wee hours of the morning browsing and researching about Emerson (and yes I am also browsing for interview tips hehehe). I am soooooo dead! Grhhh. Lord help me! Wait for the result on Friday. Please pray for me and wish me luck. I need it badly!

September 28 will really be one of the days that I WILL NEVER EVER (as in!) forget in my entire life.

My work starts at 10 am, so I make sure that around 845 AM, I am already out of the house. Unfortunately, I really cant wake up by myself so I have my mom to wake me up every single day. This particular day she told me - Wala kayong pasok. She said that while Im on my half awake and half asleep state. I glanced at the clock and I literally jumped off the bed as I read it was already 845 AM! I prepared to leave as in nakaligo ako in 5 minutes sa sobrang madali ko. And I dont want to break my record - I was never late since I was promoted. Arrg! This will be the first time T_T. Well I heard that there will be a storm and all but hey - the sky is clear and there aint no sign of storm yet - May pa eye eye of the storm pa kayo jan! So I went to work and took the MRT. The usual scenario, people keep on squashing me - porket maliit ako hmp - and pushing me as I get in the train. And then signs started showing. At Santolan Station, we had stopover for 15 minutes. And then I heard the "DJ" of the train say - "Pasensha na po at hanggang Shaw lang po tayo at walang kuryente sa Taft". Bigla nagkalat ang butiki sa MRT. Everyone was tsk tsking (pinoy nga!). So my mood was already reaaaaalyy bad but I cant do anything db. So I took the bus from Shaw and yes! I arrived at exatly 1130 AM! Late ako! And I was really dugyot kasi pagod n ako, pawis pa, naiinis pa ako. Then my officemates told me "Sana d ka na pumasok." Grhhh! Sana nga I didnt na lang. Pero mahal ko trabaho ko.. Naks! ^^

Then lunch time came and the "live show" started.

I was on the 8th Floor and I can see everything thats happening around the Fort. It was really raining cats and dogs and --- yero! Yeah you read it right. Roofings were flying everywhere because the wind was really sooooo strong. All employees were actually near the windows to witness this extraordinary happening. Nakadikit na nga nose namen sa window. Scary kasi tuwing pumapalo ung wind feeling mo mawawasak salamin namen. Aw pag nawasak un.. mahihila kame palabas. Joskolord! And worst of all pa, yung mga nanahimik na cars ng officemates ko, ayun naliparan ng yero. Not only naliparan, its like nang aasar pa kasi ginagasgas nya talaga ung mga hood nila. May isa pa nabasag ang windows and nagpaestimate na sila hundred bucks ang kelangan para ipaayos. The other one got his Vios just 2 months ago - nagasgasan din.Whew! Makes me feel relieved wala ako kotse. Har har har! Kidding po. Then I was also observing ung post ng Mcdonalds. Deba meron sila poste na meron Big M na logo nila with the word Mcdonalds sa baba noon. Nagtatawanan kame because inaabangan namen mawala ung letters nya. Ayun naging Mcdonal.. naging Mcdo.. then Mc.. hanggang nilipad na sha lahat. There was also this delivery boy of Chowking. He was wearing his jacket pabaliktad and nasa likod ung zipper nung jacket. Eh ung wind was coming from behind him patulak. So ang lakas lakas ng wind diba. Ang ginawa nya tumalon sha from his motorcyle at tumakbo na lang. If he didnt jump kasi, delikado lang sha.

Create Your Own!

It was truly an unforgettable experience.

Siguro we were all in awe in shock pero I know deep inside we are not enjoying the things were seeing. Sino ba gusto ng magasgasan or masaktan dbah. It made me realize how lucky I am again. I am lucky because I live in a house and not a shanty that can be easily run down by strong winds. Ikaw? whats your realization during that time?

I am dead again!

With James and Maru, we decided to make a pustahan worth five thousand pesos!!!!!!!!! And its all about "pagpapapayat in 2 months!!!!!!!!!!!!" OH MY GOD! Thats a lot of bucks and I dont want to lose that big amount of money. So I am really thinking on how to lose weight. But you see, I never experienced being slim. I am chubby eversince. Add to that fact that I cant say no to sweets - san ako papunta sa pustahan namen???!!!! I wont bring my usual baon tomorrow. Ill have Skyflakes instead. Ugh. Kakayanin ko kaya. Then I wont buy crepes na. Ive been eating crepes straight for 2 days. Pass muna ako tomorrow. Grrh! I just wish the bet was only 20 pesos. Babayaran ko na sila. Hehehe.

Have you ever experienced feeling like you dont have anything to do anymore at work. I mean you already finished your pending cases and all and you find yourself staring at the computer monitor waiting for Sadako - ay TV pala yon. Anyways, I had the same feeling kanina. So I did the following to eat up my time:

1. I cleaned by bookmarks. I created folders and junked there the bookmarks depending on their classification. I am the kind of person who loves to browse and bookmark sites I find interesting. Ang haba haba na pala ng bookmarks ko. Mine were You Tube videos, Glitter text for instant testimonial sa mga nanghihingi, lyrics of songs na di ko makanta ng tama yung lyrics (example is check up on it.. na kinakanta ni Dex na ... wacha wacha...hahahhaha), blogs ng friends ko na I want to tag sa blogspot ko, html programming codes for Frienster and template ko sa Blogspot, Click the City for movies and restos, Cisco Networking links (sa pag aaral ko kunyare ^^) and madame pa. O dba, ngayon mas maayos na itsura. =)

2. I deleted friends I do not know from my two Friendster accounts. I used to approve some even if I barely know them. Scary. Mamaya hired killer pala yun. Hahah kidding.

3. I cleaned my Desktop. Grabeh. I have so many unused files na nagtetake up ng memory ng PC ko. Grabeh! I can me likened to a basurera. Collect ng collect ng files.

4. I opened the Notepad and told myself - makapagsulat nga sa blog.

5. I researched for place na pede pag outingan ng guild. I am planning a two day outing! Your suggestion is much appreciated. =)

Presto! I made something useful on my spare time. Wag lang dadaan si Boss Jivs. =)

I dont like to take my 15 minute break kasi. Dati when I take it, I end up going down the building and smoke. Quit na ako mag smoke. Inom na lang! ^^

I am happy with my love life. Surprised? I know you have been a silent witness of my heartaches that Ive written on my blogs and you want to tell me - Di nga?! (sabay batok ba?) Honestly I am happy. And contented. Oh db hindi ako makontento dati? (No naman.. I was just looking for that something that no words can define....lols) Funny nga eh. Kasi he was really used to my missed calls and emails and texts. Eh I felt I was taken for granted. So what I did was I was no longer sending him emails and I seldom give him a ring. Weeee. Look at us now. Namiss nya ako. Hindi sha sanay na I dont email him. Na i dont make papansin. Hehe ayun namiss nya ako. Effective pala yun. =) I just cant help but miss him everyday. Pero he needs to work for our family. Dont worry honey... I will wait for you. I promise that. Love you honey! =)

I am having problem with an ex. Its not a problem naman. Its just that... it seems to be disturbing. He wants us to meet and make kamustahan. I told him - what for? Dbah. What for? Bakit pa? Para saan? I was kinda rude on the phone because when he asked me how am I doing, I told him - "Okay naman hindi na ako uto uto unlike before." Hahah. Ang sama sama ko. Pero dba.. the logic. Why should I see him pa. Its already a closed book. I cannot say that I regret having a relationship with him because everything happens in our lives for a reason. And I wont meet my hon if there was no "us" before. Its just that - its already a closed chapter and Im actually reading a new book right now that I will read over and over again for the rest of my life. What could be the best thing to do, huh?
