spendy nitbits.

i was advised that i need to be saving. pero mahirap e. still, napag-usapan din. nagkita kami ni kuya ruel and kuya joub. startled talaga sila nung nagkita kami nung sabado. small world.

you need to slow down, john paul.

the first few days of being part of HR seem to pass by. the people have been accommodating so much, since i used to bug them (at times).

what is my current job ba? well, i am the first person hired by nucomm (or transcom) to handle HR work as a recruiting coordinator for Cloud10, a home-based call center that has its base of operations in Denver. i basically interview Americans to determine if they are capable enough to become home-based agents. my current schedule is 12mn-9am (tues-sat) or 9am-6pm (mon-fri in denver) for now pero mukhang pwedeng ma-adjust. we'll see.

imagine that. this must be the reactionary measure against the prevalence of outsourcing.

some tidbits they have checked on me:

1. that i speak too loud (trying to address that)
2. that i speak too fast (trying to address that)
3. that i sometimes eat and mispronounce words (trying to address that)
4. that i'll prolly need strepsils once every two workdays.
5. that at least, i could still manage to balance listening to music. basta mahina lang.
6. that they seem to enjoy my company. LOL.

tapos biglang nag-text si sarah. haha... di ko na lang isusulat dito.

speaking of slowing down, olivia is at eastwood tomorrow. jazz. also currently liking sarah bareilles. and i managed to squeeze in sitti at stonehouse. haven't seen her in ages, so she made me happy. another person made me happy lately as well.

anyway, i have to catch the z's. iniiwan na naman nila ako. LOL.

Growth

the past week saw me attend 2 baptismals / christenings. iba talaga kapag ikaw na ang parang magiging ninong / ninang. pero masaya siya. because of friends and family that are there with you.

All-access with Rico and Gelli (the final Chapter)

had the best of times this year listening to this show. as it was the final day for the Rico and Gelli tandem, and since i was near the area, i decided to drop by. LA, Enzo and AM of Radio 1 were there to have fun as well.
LA with her "guyfriend"
the all=access crew.

Good times. But no worries, the show is still alive, with Danielle as Rico's partner. Gelli is on with Jude 9-12nn on weekdays.

Nag-pahula

This is the prognosis for Cancerians for 2008, based from what I heard at Heard on Thursdays with Rafael Reyes:

Since it is opposing the sign of Capricorn, Cancerians will have difficulty since Capricorns are restrictive and that Cancerians need to go run free. They need spiritual foundation, to just go with the flow and take stock of what you have. You just analyze and understand.

Other stuff i heard. It would be a good year for RX and that the music industry would be ok.
