Dear Fucking Lazy Ass Coworker Posted at 11:20 AM in Magnum Dopus, assholes 1. I will never offer to help you with anything again. You are ungrateful and lazy. You carry on how overworked you are but I see you spending plenty of time on the phone, shopping on internet, hanging out in your BFF’s work area. 2. I will try not to laugh too loud when your boss catches you doing nothing and calls you out on the carpet. Of course you will whine to us how you are the only one who gets picked on. 3. If you’re sick stay home. I don’t want whatever plague you have been walking around with. Use your damn sick days, I know you have them. If I catch your bug then you should give me YOUR sick time.
Sincerely,
Me what I wrote you whine |
I'm Ready Posted at 10:49 PM in My Life and what's left of it..., Loving and Living to embark to my ultimate destination -- that is, to a family I can call my own...
A decision has been made, a decision that will change my life forever -- for the better, and even for the best. I know we both are entrusting our lives to each other's hand under the guidance of the Father. So this is what they call destiny. I remember writing a post about a love map (you may read about that here). Now I can say that I do have a lovemap! And that the once faceless man has been revealed to me. I am ready. Yes, I know I am. I am ready to put everything else aside just to make sure I don't lose my last chance to happiness. I just found what I have been looking for all my life and there's no way I'm gonna throw away the blessings that I received from Him. I will not let Him down too. As the playing song goes... I'll be true to the promise I have made... to my Mahal and to the One who gave him to me... I love him so. And I vow to show him everyday just how much I truly love him. Words will never be enough to express my overwhelming affection and passion for him. I may only have my love to give but I will make sure this love will go places, will solve mazes, never fazes... We are ready. Together, we will build our hopes and dreams and our foundation would be our love and trust so strong, under the guidance of our Creator. Together we'll be there for each other, for the family that we both long for, for the happy and contented life that we both deserve... May God bless our love.

Material Wish Lust :) Posted at 03:08 AM in My Life and what's left of it..., Writing for sanity's sake, Technology Slumbook (Life Made Simplier), Shopping, People If you've been reading my posts in the past, you're probably aware by now that I don't celebrate Christmas though I celebrate JC's birth everyday by trying my best to live life the way I'm supposed to live it. Anyways, this isn't a religious post. I am actually thinking of the things (yes, that's material things) that I can go without but seems nice to have. Yes, I'm pretty contented with what I have right now but then I see nothing wrong with daydreaming LOL! And so I was mentally creating a wish lust (list) in my mind of the stuff that I would love to have on New Year's Day. Oh you know how great it is to receive gifts (though I'm fond of giving too) on a New Year -- new year, new things :) But then, I can't really expect everybody to give me those things I like not only because they're expensive but also because others may want to give me something else and I should respect and be appreciative of their choices. And so I decided to write down the things that I would like to have -- either I get it as gifts from others or I buy them myself. Nah, I wouldn't include my dreamhouse or the car I would love to drive someday. Those are too big for me. I'll try my best to be as close to reality as I can. I mean, there are things that I have wanted to have so much in the past but it's either I can't afford it or I can but would rather spend the money on something more useful or practical or on something that will make my life or my family's life convenient. But then, I'm almost 30 (Yes, I'm not embarrassed of my age). Why not start working hard for my wants? I have been working towards survival. I was able to sustain my needs in the past. I think I'll just have to work harder and I'll get what I want. 2010 seems like a good year... I have one whole year to get what I want... Ok, so here goes my list (not in particular order, just what comes in my mind)... 1. Green Sony Vaio Laptop
2. Apple iPhone 3G
3. Favorite Authors' Collection
4. Emerald Jewelry ... ahhh stunningly beautiful! Go Green! :)
5. Bvlgari Green Mother-of-Pearl Leather Women's Watch (sigh... I know, very expensive)
6. Bvlgari Sunglasses (ohh-la-la)
7. Fragrances for Women by Jean Patou
8. Victoria's Secret
9. Manicure, Pedicure, Spa, Facial and Salon Package (pamper me.... LOL!)
10. Engagement Ring (hmmm... I can forget wishes 1-9 as long as I have this. Boy! I don't even mind a plastic ring as long as I'm engaged! Hahaha!) Save the best for last huh! Oh well I had fun thinking and writing about my material wish list (or lust, whatever! LOL!). I don't know if I'll be able to get my wants for 2010. I repeat, I can live without these things but well, they're definitely nice to have! :) I am really contented with the material and non-material blessings that I am getting right now and I am more concerned with the non-material too -- e.g. good health for me, my little baby and my Mahal, fun learning experiences for my little angel, eternal love and passion between me and my Mahal, a harmonious relationship between me and my loveones, a strong Christian value, among other things. But then again... If I can have it all, why not? :) Sweet Child of Mine |
Developers Connect Posted at 09:36 PM in My Life and what's left of it..., Technology Slumbook (Life Made Simplier)
That's cool! The event will happen on December 03, 2009, (venue details to follow) an opportunity for me to interact with other programming enthusiasts (both professionals and students alike) in Mindanao! But I am more interested in the learning that I could get out of the activity -- the talks, the discussions, the debates, the hands-on coding, gosh! It would be fun! So maybe you wanna register as well. Just visit their Registration page and fill-up the online registration form. See ya there! |
Hmmm... sounds like fun. I wonder if the management will allow me to go. I'm so interested with this, I do hope they would pay for my registration fee (if any), LOL! I mean, I hope they will support this activity and see it as an advantage if they would send me to the conference.
15 days... Posted at 10:46 PM in My Life and what's left of it... It's been 15 days since he went back home... 15 days that I haven't seen him... 15 days that I haven't hold his hand... 15 days that I haven't touch his face... 15 days that I haven't hold him close... 15 days... 15 agonizing days and countng still... I miss him.
I miss him so much, it hurts. He's been my strength, and my joy during the days we were together. When he left, it's as if I ran out of strength, and that there's a hole somewhere in my chest where my heart used to be. Yes, he took my heart away with him. He owns it now, he holds it in his hands. I have entrusted him with my heart with the capacity to break it. But I know he wouldn't. I trust him so much. He's such a wonderful guy to do something like hurt me. I owe him another chance to love. He renewed my belief in forever and lasting love.... Yes, him, my Mahal... I don't know how I'll be able to go through two more months of not having him by my side. It would take extra-ordinary effort to smile and pretend I'm not hurting with the distance between us. Thank God for Skype, at least I get to see him and hear his voice everyday. I know it's not the same as seeing him and listening to him in person, but it's the closest we can do for now. Sigh... 15 days feels like eternity. I still have to count 60 more days until I hold him close to my arms again...

Home-Based No More Posted at 10:20 PM in My Life and what's left of it..., Writing for sanity's sake, Technology Slumbook (Life Made Simplier), My Little Nicholas, People I'm working in the office nowadays. It feels strange to be back in the office after almost a year of working telecommute. I have been used to being in my room the whole day, wearing my house dress, not combing my hair even (LOL!), doing house chores when there's nothing left to do for my job, exercising/dancing while waiting for blog submissions (ooppsss!)... but the most important thing I miss is being there with my baby :( -- No more playing with Nico when I'm taking a break from work, no more talking to him while working, no more eating lunch with him... Sigh.. I feel like I'm missing so much of my baby's growth.
Honestly, I feel cheated. Don't get me wrong. I am thankful that the Human Resource Department decided to map a career path for me and put me in the department where I should be. It actually felt good that they saw my potentials and decided that it will do me good if I am put in a more challenging position. I have nothing against that. What I didn't like was the fact that I seem to lose privileges instead of gaining some as I moved on to a higher position. When I said privileges, I meant the convenience that was brought about by working at home. This is very important to me since I have a 10-month old baby at home who is used to seeing me everyday. Another thing is that I get to travel everyday -- I'm talking about additional expenses and time adjustment. All these are compounded with the fact that I have greater responsibilities here in the office. Sure I only have 10 workstations and 2 servers to monitor daily but I am fairly new in this kind of work and aside from monitoring the network and all the computer equipment installed herein, I am also doing PHP programming -- which I am yet to learned since I've only done VB.NET and C# programming before. I accepted the job because it was indeed something I wanted to do. I am a technical person, a hardware techie by education and a software geek by experience. But I wuld have appreciated a formal training along with a formal transition, complete with a new contract that details all the changes in my tasks as well as privileges. My! I didn't even have an increase in my salary when I transferred to this position and they didn't hear me complain! I just hope they'll give me what I am worth, what I deserved. I mean, they took away my telecommute preivileges, they could have easily replaced that with another privilige or compensate it with an increase or just a daily allowance for travel expenses. And now, after what, a week or so in this position, without a formal training whatsoever, I was already given a project -- a program that should be written in PHP. And it was assigned to me verbally! You see, I came from a corporate setup where every tool and application to be developed must go through a thorough system analysis to save cost and speed up the programming process. But they don't practice SDLC (System Development Life Cycle) here! I don't know if I can do the project. I really have no idea what to do, where to start... I feel like crying and quitting. But I've never been a quitter. I've always been a fighter all my life. Thank God for inspirations like my little Nicholas and my wonderful friend and sweetheart Mark, I think I can go through this. I mean, Mark is right, I'll just have to do the best that I can do. Whatever the result is, I must be ready to face the consequences. And so, I think, instead of coding, I'll make a system analysis this week. I'll submit it to my Manager on Saturday for my progress report. Yup, instead of PHP scripts, I'll give him System Requirements. I do believe in the power of system analysis and it's high time for this company to follow an effective process rather than wasting time and money into programming systems that go on for months and months without the expected result just because it never went through a system analysis. Ok. I feel ok now. I have ranted about this new job. It's time to do some work... Wish me luck! :) This Is How You Remind Me of Nickelback |
