First Day At Work

April 8, 2018
Today is my first day at work. There was a bit of a confusion with the HR because the police vetting hasn't been completed yet, but the contract did say that today is my first day. So I had a bit of manual reading, lots of shelving, Health and Safety reading, informational DVD watching, and…

    November 11, 2013
    I have a stomachache today because lately I've been crying a lot. And it happens during those times that I'm eating, whether lunch or simple crackers. I'm such a crybaby. These past tragedies that hit the Philippines really get on my nerves. Just watching it on TV, reading it on the papers or on ...

    Wow. Two months without any entry in OD. Pardon for a gloomy entry today. My heart goes out to those affected by the recent flooding in the Philippines. It's devastating, I can't even begin to describe how I feel. What more those who are actually affected? But what saddens me more is when a news&...

    June 13, 2013
    For our team building this weekend, we decided to visit a museum of heritage houses located up north. The Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar <http://www.lascasasfilipinas.com> is a collection of centuries old houses (from different parts of the country) that were disassembled and reconstructed u...

  • of wedding ideas and diarrhea
    June 6, 2013
    I just saw a cute wedding reception from a website full of wedding ideas. The supplier calls these Ghost Chairs (by Olive Tree). This is definitely on top of my list when it comes to reception chairs. Plus of course, the table linens should be white with silver napkins, or vice versa; and then of...

    Today, I am 100% a Training Support Specialist. A month ago, my teammates, who are Training Support Specialists - customer service people (I'm a Courseware Developer - background guy or gal), incurred a huge backlog. This is due to a deadline they set to the Customers and there was a steady strea...

  • Busy As A Bee
    June 2, 2013
    A lot has happened these past couple of months. New babysitter who lasted only 3 weeks (she went home to vote in the mid-term elections and never came back because her sister can no longer take care of her 11-month old baby after her sister's father-in-law suffered a stroke). And then replaced by...

  • Disoriented from lack of sleep
    April 10, 2013
    Last Sunday, the stay-in babysitters left. Or, were forced to leave, rather. It all boiled down to one thing: boys. It was also the same with their predecessors. Once they get to know some boys in the neighborhood, they start exchanging SMS, start seeing them during their "free time" (w...

  • Post Op
    April 3, 2013
    I suppose things went well during the surgery. Although, since I had general anesthesia, when I woke up after the operation, I was disoriented. I really hate that feeling - it was as if I just had a very bad case of hangover and wanted to throw up and at the same time I wanted…

    March 13, 2013
    This morning I was very thankful that baby Marc no longer has a fever. Since last night. So I naturally thought the storm has passed. This morning he was about to sleep but then he suddenly cried. Actually he screamed. He didn't want to be put down. I pity him because his eyes look like…
