on loop: high ~ lighthouse family
it's a very monotonous sunday morning... i've been lying around and eating the entire day. rarr. but i could really use the rest, after a long week. i'd love to go back to the beach kahit sandali lang, away from all the hustle and bustle of city life. wala lang. aside from being a monotonous day, it's also a very lazy one for me. i've been meaning to fix my site and put up the links and stuff but the weather's too warm and i'm just too lazy hehe. sorry :) will do next time, promise.

speaking of vacations, beaches and warm weathers, our company is sponsoring a trip to malaysia for next week wednesday. this is a collaborative team-building seminar for upcoming supervisors. it actually serves a dual purpose since all the higher-ups and the promotees would get to spend some time together and participate in the annual Intel (Pentium) Conference to be held in malaysia as well. expense will be very minimal for the 4 day trip since a bulk of the stuff to pay for would be shouldered by Dell USA and SRTP already. i asked permission from my dad already and he said it was allright with him, but the problem is that my papers and my passport's all messed up and i'm not sure if i have enough time to fix it. another option would be Palawan, especially for those who don't have their passports ready and can't really fit it into their scheds to go out of the country, but most everyone's vouching for malaysia. bummer. hope i could come...

along my train of thought, i was just thinking how time flies by so fast. it's been six months since i started on my job. wow. i never expected to last so long. it's been hard, but fun at the same time. some people looked down on call centers, thinking it's a no-nonsense job. i admit, i used to not think so much of this job, but ever since i was able to experience it, i realized how wrong i was. it's every bit as serious and difficult as all those high-falutin jobs makati offices and stuff offer. in fact, i think it's also incredibly pressuring since you have to deal with metrics and goals, every single HOUR. deadlines aren't by the week or month, it's by the HOUR and there's no one to help you out. just every man for himself. it may be asy to get in, but it's even easier to be terminated, people get terminated every single day and new people come in nearly every week. and to correct someone, it's no place for child's play.

on loop: constantly ~ nina
everything's been so weird these past couple of weeks. i feel like some sort of caterpillar fresh out of my larvae... things around me seem so new and unsettling. oh well. anyway, la union was so cool! we stayed in coconut grove resort for FREE! hehe one of the people from our team owned it so... hurray :) though the trip was short and super bitin, it was a lot of fun. the people were great and i learned a lot during the trip. i also learned to appreciate someone so much more, as if i can finally say that the person really is a friend and not just a fleeting personality in my life. sad to say, this person left the company right after our trip without letting anyone know that was his plan. i hope things would pan out for him :) best wishes!

some people just don't know when to give up! goodness... give it a rest. sana some people would know naman where to position themselves. sana lumugar naman sila sa tama. in the end, they'll be the ones who'll look foolish. eksena pa ng eksena, wala naman nang mangyayari. sigh... the things some people go through in the name of ||||, ahahay.

speaking of giving up, it's so weird to realize that how your situation is right now with a certain event or person is exactly the same situation someone else is with you or a certain event. weird and real tough to explain, basta it's like twin circumstances between two people... somewhat like a psychotic chain of events. makes me understand that person better, and relate to that person as well since we share the same sentiments. just for different people. it's cool as well, you get to be at both sides of the fence at one time which could actually be an advantage in the long run :) anyway, i should lay low for now. and get back to work as well! harhar.

arrgh. i was typing this really long and thought-of post to blog since i haven't blogged for quite some time plus i've put up a new lay-out but due to sheer crappiness, i clicked on 'publish' when the server went down and poof, there goes more than hour's worth of insights and narratives i've been working on. arrgh. that totally soured everything up for me. i really should start working on notepad or word next time. and get THIS, i did it TWICE pa *cue spastic laughter* after i typed my first attempt and that didn't go through, i typed an irritated post, but still with some sort of attempt to be sensible and worthwhile but NO... that just won't do. shallow na kung shallow but i should cool off. be back some other time when i'm less stupid or something. rarr.
