INSPIRING MESSAGE

One of my Boss sent a New Year's message on our email which is truly inspiring that I would want to share it here in my blog.

As we bid adieu to 2011, we should also bid adieu to the loads of tensions that we carry in our head. Whenever life closes one door that we thought was ideal, it opens another one that is even better - just that at times we realize it a bit later. Offload the word 'MISTAKES' from your life and replace it with 'OPPORTUNITIES' - learn from day to day things in life but ensure that you are progressing. Wishing 2012 opens million such doors for each one of you.

The message is truly inspiring. I agree that we should learn from the day to day things in our lives. At times we just don't realize that the simple learning from our everyday life is actually what we need for growth and success. Not enough for us to just learn, we also need to apply what we learn.

CHRISTMAS GIFTS

To my agents, supervisors, colleagues, friends - thank you all for the gifts. More than ever it's the thought that really counts. You guys made me feel so loved. :)

TEAM BUILDING

I recently transferred from one team to another. I am handling another set of team right now, some were tenured and some were new. I have to admit that it was kinda hard at first to get to know each and one of them. Though some were already under me and there were familiar faces as well, but still, getting know everyone is the hardest part. Not only me, even my agents are not comfortable with one another. So we decided to have a team building, a perfect time to bond and know one another. True enough, this event made everyone feel comfortable and felt that they are in a team. Though this team building was done by last minute preparations, it still served it's purpose.

And now they are asking for another team building, this time, we need to really plan on it. LOL! 

TURTLES

Here I go again, been occupied and can't find time to update my blog. Past weekends were fun as they were spent with good friends. Last Saturday (Sept. 17), me and my team for like a year decided to have some get together. It was like a reunion and farewell party as well. Reunion because new and old members of the team are invited and farewell because I'll be leaving them and will handle another team (which I am now). We visited this Turtles Family KTV at Marikina and it was a good place to hang-out, they have delicious food and nice ambiance. Everyone had a great time. Check out the pics below:

The place was nice. Check it out some time. And that same night, the Quality Team had their team building as well on the same place, they're just beside our room.  Hehe!

The white sweatshirt has this anchor accent at the top left which makes it trendy than just a white sweatshirt.

SUCH A DORK!

Took this photo while at work. Saw the eye glasses in the Quality Room and decided to wear and have a pic. I admit that in some ways, I have that nerdy personality too. :)

I'm the biggest nerd - I love comic books and stuff like that! I don't have any friends who are actresses. I only had one girlfriend when I was growing up. Most of my friends were boys. I was such a tomboy. I enjoyed doing guy things.

TIME TO HAVE FUN

At last, non-agents team building! A very rare get together for all the management peeps. We all got there to forget about work because it's time to relax and have fun. Foods, beers, massage, games, activities, videoke, band, laughter, it's just all fun. With all those stuffs back at work, everyone truly deserve this stress-free day! Too bad some were not able to come.

We all need to learn work-life balance!

Date of event: July 30, 2011

I'M BUSY LIVING

Haven't visited my blog for like a week. Me was so occupied lately and would always want to rest during my free hours. Not much happened. Work still eat most of my time. Haha! I am truly blessed that I have my lil' man at the end of the day. At times I wish that I could just be a full-time Mom, but that would be an impossible wish for a single-parent like me. I am just so thankful to God for giving me such a wonderful son, he completes me. :)

RAINY WEEK

It has been raining everyday last week. You know how it is when raining - lazy! Oh yeah, with that kind of weather, you would just want to stay home, in your bed, under the sheets and sleep. But then I simply can't. Still reported to work with those storms and flood. It's business as usual!

I am still blessed to have a house that will comfort me in times like that. I will always be thankful and grateful to God for taking care of me, my family and my friends. :)

TONIGHT, I WANT....

It's a weekend again and I feel like enjoying it tonight. The statements above hit it, but not the 3rd one though.  Or not so?! LOL. I just really wanna have some fun tonight. After being stressed at work for 5 days, I do need to go out on a weekend. :)

1ST DAY OF SCHOOL STORIES

It's my Lil' Man's 1st day at school earlier and I was able to fetch him right after my shift. My day at work has been a long one. Reported so early and had gone home really late. But hearing my son's "1st day of school" stories and seeing excitement in him removes all the stress in me. He is definitely all I need to live!

VACATION STARTS NOW...

I'm officially on vacation now. 

I'll be far away from reality for quite awhile. 

Woooohooo! 

That's just exactly what I need. 

 Vacation days ahead. 

Let the fun and relaxation begin!

HATE MONDAYS?

Start your Monday

with a positive thought... 

and being positive that you hate Mondays 

does not count... :P

A great week ahead to everyone!

HONEYOSH PHOTOGRAPHY

These pictures were taken by Slice with her Nikon D90. Honeyosh is her watermark. I love the stolen shots. Especially the 2nd photo, it looks like a paparazzi shot. Uhmm, please let me dream. LOL! I thanked Slice for being so patient on taking pictures of me. Oh well, I am just doing the same for her. Quits! Haha.

TGIM

Thank God It's Monday!

Work mode on. =)

WHO DO YOU PREFER?

with respect and admiration.

Who do you prefer? 

IT'S CROWDED LATELY

I've neglected my blog these past few days. There's just a lot going on lately, even sleeping was like a task that you need to do just because your body needs to. But if not, seems like I won't be sleeping to keep up with all the things I have to do. The longest hours of sleep I could have this past few days is 5 hours. 

It's not just about work but other stuffs too. I already have a full plate with many side dishes. My world is too crowded lately. I'm not complaining, it's actually much better to have a crowded world than an isolated one. I just need to remind myself when to slow down if stuffs are getting out of hand. Well, I am learning how. =)

I SURVIVED MONDAY

I survived Monday!

You know how it was when you came from your rest days and it's the first day of the week?! Workloads are like sitting next to you, waiting impatiently for them to get done. Last night at work, stuffs just keep on coming and I don't know which to prioritize. Some had slipped my mind then it'll pop in my head again and I would just say like "sh***t!" LOL. That's why I had a lot of post-its and keeps on jotting down notes at my planner. I am such a forgetful person. I can feel that this is going to be a long week. Oh yeah, it's going to be a tiring but productive week. =)

COFFEE CRAVING

I am craving for coffee!

Here I go again, caffeine addiction strikes again. My fave these past few days were the iced coffees. I am thinking of dropping by at Starbucks later before going to work. Hmmmmm... One venti iced white chocolate mocha to go pleaseeeeee. =)

FROM BAD TO GOOD

Earlier at work, I was not in a good mood again at the start of my shift because of some reasons that freaking get into my nerves and felt like the unwanted vibes will lasts for a day. Then came something that somehow brightens my day. =)

Yes, we have bad days. But I realized that there's still something good at the end of the day. Today is not so bad after all. I am blessed!

SHIT HAPPENS

Shit happens > indeed!

Sorry, better luck next time.

Crap!

I'll let it out with a deep sigh.

*SIGH*
