Kudos! Kudos!

Hi. Oh my god I'm knackered to the bone. Just got off from work. My body clock'c fucked up coz our schedule got altered. From 3-11PM, it's now 5AM-2PM. How's that for battery? I only slept for about an hour and a half last night coz I'm not used to sleeping too early, like earlier than 1 AM. So here I am now, tired like a gang-raped cow.

I can't do up to the unit yet since there's fire drill going on in the building.

Anyway, I already graduated from training last Friday. Appaluse, snaps and standing ovation please.

Today was the first day of nesting/ taking calls with the supervision and guidance of mentors. It's great coz I got a kudos call. That's what they call it when the customer wants to talk to the supervisor and tell him what a good job the agent has done providing good service and patience and all, catering to the needs of the caller. And that agent is moi. Hahahah... Ahluvet.

Got lucky I guess.

I'm so exhausted though. I feel like a zombie.

Have. To. Sleep. Very. Soon.

I'm gonna try to update as soon as possible.

Ciao.

Depression 2






I'm just dropping by. I love this day. I passed the friggin' third week assessment for training! Ugh, work is such a bitch but it's pretty rewarding when you accomplish something. I love it.

Anyway, I don't really have time to elaborate everything simply because I'm too lazy to do that and I have to surf away online.

I have here some pics though. Taken the other night when I was depressed like hell.

Ohmigod. I just heard somebody from the 5th floor fell/jumped off. He's dead and still on the ground with blood everywhere according to my source. Might check that out later. Wow. Now that's depressing. I guess I'm still lucky, huh.

It Sizzled.

I'm just droppin' by.

Just had another round with my last you-know-what. Exhausted. But I like to think it's worth it. Just hope I won't have to pay the toll on tomorrow's big fat quiz. Or worse, this week's assessment.

I don't have time to blab right now but I just wanna say that I cooked tocino for dinner. I don't exactly enjoy fying since the oil tends to pop(?) all over the place and could burn the skin. I didn't have any choice though. It's either I cook or I starve.

I'm hungry. It's 3 AM and I have to sleep in a while. Nighters.

Depression

I'm depressed.

Sometimes, when you play around, people tend to not take you seriosly. I know for a fact that I haven't been in the field for too long to say that I've gone tired of it. But that's pretty much how I feel right now.

I'm sick of sleeping with strangers who don't intend to call you or communicate with you in any way after a night of indulgence. I want something more than that. I don't wanna get into the details since it's not really me to divulge these things but I just can't hold it in anymore. This void is getting bigger.

Last night, I did it again. Not that I regret anything as of the moment. But it just doesn't satisfy me that much anymore. It's cheesy and downright stupid but I was expecting something more intimate and lasting---like calls or messages the next day. Not just carnal hours of exchanging bodily juices. It's fucking frustrating. Especially after you've already tried reaching out and get nothing but hopeless responses.

I'm fucked up.

I don't even know why I'm about to hit the PUBLISH button but whatever. I have to at least try to purge this out.

So Clean

This has been a tiring day I thought one of my limbs would fall off. I love it though that I was able to do the chores like wash my clothes eventhough I really hate that. Laundry ruins hands.

I got a package from home today. My Mom is just so fond of sending me lots and lots of food. I love it. She sent crabs, shrimp, fish, chicken and even mangoes. Gotta love that. It's mother's day tomorrow and I don't have anything to give but a greeting. Oh well. Let's see.

I got my first pay today. I checked my ATM and it's there so I got about a fourth of it. Went to the mall and bought myself a bag, a magazine, a hair stick and had dinner with a somebody who loved to blab. Gawd, that wackedhead loves to talk. But I had fun. Clean fun that is.

So... with that notion, excuse me as I polish myself with some dirt. It's been a while you know. * Wink wink

Krispy Kreme and Work

Ohmigod. I haven't blogged in such a long time! Jeez, a lot of things happened. Been a long while really. It's like I died and got reincarnated long.

Work has been hectic. It's fun but grueling. There's a lot of studying and memorizing involved I don't know how I'm going to survive until nesting.

(I was reading a message from a really good friend in Iloilo who doesn't know that arwana is a kind of fish. I love her messages. So fun)

OK, so to make things clearer; I am currently in training to be The Next Top Travel Specialist. lol. If I get lucky, I will have to accept calls from America everyday regarding travel, transportation and accomodation bookings. It'd grounded on customer service so I'm gonna have to keep my sarcasms to myself when at work.
Anyway, enough about work. Gawd, I deal with that at least eight hours a day, five times a week.

It may seem like an easy job but it's not. I got assigned to the company' s premium so the training is really rigorous. This is definitely not one of those no-brainer jobs out there. It's very challenging actually and pays quite well. I'm not exactly gonna be filthy rich through this job but it's a good start.

Speaking of money, tomorrow I'm gonna get my first pay. I love it. I'm thinking of buying a new phone, a jacket, a bag, and some presents for family but I don't know. I'm not exactly getting that much am I? I'm just gonna save up for that phone I guess.

Living away from home has really taught a lot things. Aside from doing my own laundry and washing the dishes, I've really experienced how it is to do things on your own and not rely so much on your parents or anyone else for that matter. I, and sometimes together with my housemates/condomates, do the groceries and buy real food. You know, like meats and greens. I also go to the market to buy fish for our adopted pet arwana.
I just really can't wait to pass everything and get my money every fifteen days so I can shop and paint the town red.

I so miss my friends and family. I'd love to talk to them on the phone or even online. Ugh.

I really don't know what to say anymore so I think I'll end this here.

Nighters.


I love Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.

Manila- So Far

Where do I start? Today is labor day and it's the only chance I got to go online and whine and blab endlessly. My god, these past days have been soo... surreal?

I started work a little over a week ago. The first three days were great. Ugh. I haven't blogged for like a millennium I don't even know which one to talk about first. SO, I'll just opt for bullets.

Things I got myself involved in the past weeks here in Manila:
  • Started work last April 23 and humuliated self when I had to complete the sentence "I'm hot because..." Ugh. Bithces laughed at cos they thought I said bitch instead of beach. Uh-oh, some people forgot to clear their ears. Fuck it though, I was back in the horse the second time I completed the same sentence. This time, they laughed with me, not at me.

  • Met a few people at work. I swear to god that place is a melting pot of all forms of people. And I must say, there's quite a lot of cuties there.

  • Last Saturday, my gang and I went to to our company's Summer Carnivale event. It was great coz after that, a cuosin treated us to what might be the hottest club in the metro, Embassy Supper Club. She was leaving for Singapore in two days we talked her into shelling out some casd before she flies away. Anyway, the place is nothing out of the ordinary. Of course it's not ugly but it's not spectacular either. I love the lighting though. However, what really ticked me off was the smoke. Gawd. I felt like I was in some sort of gas chamber a la genocide killings or something. But it was generally fun, the music, the people (ok some of the people), the drinks, the vibe, ahluvet.

  • I have not gone shopping yet and I hate it. I've been doing my own laundry and house chores to save up. Gawd, I feel like a new person. A poverty-stricken, ugly beggar person. Hahahahah... Oh well, independence has its price.

I'm chatting with s friend right now and I don't have to for reminiscing. I'm gonna update as soon as I can. For the meantime, I have to memorize airport codes. And while I do that, I'll leave it to the pictures to tell my stories.

Arrival- The ego has landed.

Even my business class ticket couldn't accommodate all my luggage. By the way, I didn't know there's business class in the domestic flights of the third world. That was my first time.




The company summer party- there was a concert, free food, strange people, underpaid employees, yaddi yaddi yadda... I'm kidding. It was okay.

The real party begins...

Never mind my outfit. Everything was so sudden.


It was a good night.
