Six Months

I have been working for a contact center for at least 6 months now. Training was a blast because I was able to create good bonds with my co-trainees. When I hit the floor, I felt lucky to be a part of one of the best teams. My teammates became my friends at work. Our [...]

I have been looking for a new web host for a while and I finally found one. My friend, Lexie, recommended iRock Webhosting. I need to transfer two more domains under this reseller account, then I am good to go. I will need to bring this blog to life again. It reeks of dead mice [...]

Still Alive

I am so busy with work right now, or I should say, I get drained everyday with work, that I have no time to blog regularly.
I will try to do weekly blogs. I have to! Or I am just wasting my blog space. Right?

Latest Online Buys

I’ve been addicted to eBay for the past few weeks. I only buy from local sellers who accept Paypal payments with a return policy. Last week, I bought myself an XOXO bag and wallet, plus an XOXO sling bag for my mom from the eBay store, Brand Name for Less Depot. I actually got the [...]

Not that kind.
Since September, I have been working for another call center as technical support associate for a US-based ISP1. I met 11 new friends from my wave, and we’re all lucky because we had 3 great trainers, who became our friends, too. In those two months of training, I’d have to say that it [...]

Last Saturday, together with my colleagues, we all headed to Overlook Resort Hotel in Antipolo. We were all looking forward to a night of fun and a chance to bond with my new friends. We arrived at the Overlook Resort Hotel at 6:30am, a few of my colleagues were already there. We were welcomed by [...]

When I came across this blog post by Ala Paredes, it placed a smile on my face. I hope that more Filipinos would join the bandwagon of Bayanihan1.
“I wish you all could see the amazing community spirit, charity and compassion in the Phils. What I see happening here totally blows away the response to hurricane [...]

Ryan and I were stuck at Junction from 11am Saturday at the 2nd floor of a store in Junction, Cainta up to 5:30am Sunday at an eatery in Park Place Subdivision. For the whole day, we weren’t able to eat anything. Good thing we had 1.5L Gatorade, and I think it actually saved our lives [...]

Its been 6 days since I started working for a BPO1 company. Were still in training, so my work load is just light, but due to the constant weather change, I got sick during the weekend. My trainer and teammates are easy to get along with, so its not too boring at work.
I feel better [...]

Things are changing

Things are going too fast. My work starts on Monday, and my sister is leaving for Singapore next month. I’m not really sure how I feel about this, but, none of us has ever gone out of the country. 
My sister graduated this year and passed the nursing board exams. One of her friends invited her [...]
