Dorm-ant

This blog has been dormant for a quite sometime. Luckily,  its not blocked or banned. This post will be blast from the past so here it goes. Wooosh!

November 5, 2011
A job fair was held somewhere in Manila offering positions from a well known bank. So I prepared for that day. I brought all my documents needed and off I go. At the job fair I met applicants like me whose reason is mainly just to have a job. I passed the interview and written exams. The next day I had my medical exam. It took a month before I finally got the certificate that I am fit to work.

January 2012
Our training. Everything is taught. Not toxic, no pressure at all. How we all wish we're just in training. After 3 weeks of gunshot and information overload training, we're sent to our respective branches. This is the start of a newbie dilemma. Lots of errors even your hands and feet are not enough to count it, shortages you should pay, overage you should give back, endless questions, slow pace transaction, hard to reach or hard or to talk to co-workers, can't-figure-out-attitude officers. How we wish we're all just in training.

January...February...March passed... I deal with different kinds of clients. Irate, submissive, and freak of the world. First two months was a bliss. I got to buy things for myself, for Sophie, and for the peops here at home but the following month as Gaspard and Lisa say it was catastrophe! (in french). More errors occur. Bloody lot's of it! Then little by little, I started to frail. Heavy heart, heavy feet everyday on my way to work. I'm just not happy anymore. I try to give a spark my will to work, though but it wont. So I decided to to end it so as to not perish or peril my co-workers. It should be immediate. They told me things like it's not easy to find a job these days, just go with it, etc. I told to myself, go on and be on my shoes and I persist. April 16, I'm free...almost. Still waiting for the clearance and separation pay, if there's any.

As of now, I'm living my life as a mother taking care of my child and a wife tending to the needs of my husband. Such a task!

I realized that it is so hard to work when your heart and mind was not on it. I felt like I'm a slave serving my master. I hope to find a job that I don't feel like working at all somewhat close to my degree.

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.

Sure-real Moments

---> UERMMC Hospital, January 13, 2011         Sophia Ailee was 8 weeks then. Just about the size of a tadpole with normal beating heart. To my awe, it made me say, Oh my god, as I saw her on the ultrasound monitor. She's there, definitely there. ---> Amisola Maternity Hospital, February 22, 2011, Pelvic Ultrasound         Our dear baby has grown a lot. From being a tadpole-like to a human baby body with head like her Didi (shorten term for Daddy), little arms stretching and crossed legs. Her spinal cord and bones in both arms and legs is already formed but still maturing. As I saw her thru the monitor, feels like I can almost touch her. It made me teary eyed during the session. Our baby is perfectly fine and that was an ease on my part and Charles, too. Phew! ---> Twist. Kick. Roll. Punch.         Sounds like a video game, right? We just need some super powers. Hahaha. It is very o...

Happy Mother's Day

 I know this is long over due but it is still the month we celebrate Mother's Day, right? So lend me your yes and ears for a while. May 13, 2012. The whole world pays tribute and cheers for the greatest woman of our lives - our mothers. Many names have been called to her. Mom, Mama, Momsie, Mamita, Mimi, Mommy, Inay, Nanay, Mudra or Mudang (in gay language here in the Philippines) but whatever names you call them it will still give a tinge of pride and joy when you call them. On this day, many send their greetings to me thru text (BTW, I'm already a mom). I'm thankful for it but I felt a little awkward. I just told myself, I am officially a mother. This is my first ever mother's day celebration. I greet my mama and she greet me back, and we laugh. We spend the day at home watching movies and eating what's on our fridge. Let's us thank our mom for they are the only person who will love and support us all the way. For us moms, always and forever give ou...
