Unfortunate Start

i just had the worse day i think. woke up with a headache cause i really need to run on something with the appointment scheduled for 3. i thought i was late so i was thinking of the best excuse. on my way, i saw a girl got bumped or hit by a motorbike. i saw her shake like she was possessed by a demonic spirit and drool saliva in her mouth which had shake me up. it was an awful site and i really wanted to help or do something to help her out. but I'm not ready for those situations so i just prayed for her, for whatever will happen to her. upon arriving to the said venue of the said meeting place, i was present, my teams were not. cool isn't it? and the best thing, i canceled my whole team cause i know for the fact that there's no future on pursuing it. went on with my shift, it was almost as good, but turned out that i had a cold war with someone inside our team. I'm used to it, but the thing is that it made my day worse. Err, this is not a good start for the week for me.

Legally Blondes

i just bumped in to an unexpected movies never thought i would finish to watch. same old days when you get bored and had roamed around different websites in the attempt to takeout the boredom. Legally Blondes is a classical social type move, especially for those peoples who acts stupid with Gucci and Pinks, some super high class people and talks with DUHs. The movie was light, who's stars have a family trace of Elle Woods (star of Legally Blond). Annize and Izzy, who starred this movie both blonde and look almost twins. And movie has a plot of same old high school life having someone mocking you at the back. Some movies to watch make you laugh even if they're not meant to. Lol. You can try to check on that and get a DVD copy of it.

Heroes Season 3, Volume Four

i was cryptically obsessed with the TV series show "Heroes". Exaggerated as it may sound but cant deny the fact that it is absolutely real. I was going with days and days knowing that the new season is out and had been dying to have one of their DVD rips copy so i can lavish myself with that TV shows but never had any luck . Until with point of desperation, this came this website which i can watch the whole season with no problem. I had actually went on to different websites and browsed some video streaming sites as well but had no luck, until finally i was able to have it. Well, not to selfish, (though it may sound unfair cause i did all the hard work), I'm gonna post the websites that i have been link to with the new season of Heroes. And just a heads up, the season 4 is actually mixed up with Season 3. But if your gonna check some web list of their episodes, you'll know where to start. Probably they did these to prevent infringement or some act that other people you know would overly react. Anyways, enjoy.

Agent: Tenk U por coling blah blah... how me I helf U? (Tigas ng english )
Caller ( a Filipino in the US by chance ): Halo, mistir ken I pind out the retes blah blah blah...

The conversation goes on... while both parties are slowly feeling and discovering each side was a filipino due to heavy accent but the agent doesn't say he's Filipino. The agent is not allowed to disclose his identity and location. Finally, the caller got tired of talking in english...and he said "Ay ke herap naman mag-inglis!" Mag-tagalog na lang tayo! Sige na! Pilipino ka noh!?! Pilipino ka noh!?!
Agent: NO! ( said empathically )
Caller: Pilipino ka e! Naintindihan mo ako e!

Agent: "Oh, I'm so sorry, mhiiim. I meant to say "bad", that's B-U-D."
Cx: "Oh, you mean bud?"

Wakanga, sale pa rin 'tong call na 'to.

On another call and another agent, a customer was being "barat" and was trying to choose a cheaper bouquet.
Agent: "Really now, mhiiim, I certainly would suggest that you instead send the lavender roses because it is far more better..."Hehehehe...
Talk about redundancy.

Predictable Goodness

started with the week fine. not really, cause i wasnt able to have enough sleep but guess what, i was able to work properly and was able to have a good result from last week. I also had a good time with a good and moderate mode for this walk. So since everything is working good and fine the way it should be, i guess this is a predictable week. i wish it'll stay this way.

A Day of Not so Good

im still counting the days till i will have my next rest days. I think the week start for me was not that good, but im still hoping that it could or would get better. I just had some awesome unfortunate luck today like not taking a sleep and having a busy shift. my shift gets busier and busier which i think i should take advantage because of the low scores that i've got. even with the game im playing with is not so good, i got scolded for how many times and i dont know. it just makes my day go erry and i hate days such as like this. but later i know i would get a better sleep so i have to make myself comfortable and very satisfied with my rest later. err, hope everything could still get fine within this week. please, please, please.

Yesterday Jinx

Yesterday was not a good day for me. it started off sleeping not so comfortable, exhausted the whole day. Our supposed to be movie day was canceled because of some people irresponsibility to come on time that they are expected to. Excuses could have been accepted, but not tolerable. I came to my shift with like a heavy thing on my head and grooving out wanting to sleep but i cant to. I was thinking to have at least a not so busy shift, but guess what, it was busy the whole shift. Super busy and my breaks cant even help to soothen me up. The baddest thing is when i've got the unwanting zero score in one of my achievables. It shocked my whole day yesterday knowing that i'm starting to bring my whole team down. Woah! Yesterday was not really my day. And i have to make a big difference now. Gotta scram.

Jun 12, 2009

Rest and Work

woo.. its my off, and this is one of the best days of my week in my working life. I can enjoy to do things which i cant do during work days such as playing too late and not sleeping. I am really, really in love with my work, with my team, with my friends and with myself of course. I think i have everything in pace right now, and i can see the clear track that i should have been running with the long time. But i gotta keep on running on so that i could have everything right now. Just dont lose turn Kim so you wont lose your way. XD

Unwanted

I woke up late and had even this feeling of not wanting to go anywhere but stay and be with my bed to sleep. I used to have this feeling before when i was working in my previous company because of the hectic and frantic schedule that we have. But with the new company, i still dont know why. Probably its because of the schedule that i am not comfortable with. Well i am adjusting with my schedule, probably. But im not really comfortable with it cause when i sleep, i can already see the sun rising up and people passing by to do something and stuffs that they need to do. And if i were a vampire, probably i already burned. Nyahaha. Oh well, i wish we could have our old schedule back. I miss walking early morning going to my home and brushing my teeth and its still dark and no one is passing by around my house. Well, i just have to pass by with this schedule and make sure i work out with this.

A Greetings

omg. i am still awake. Yes, certainly i am still awake. But im actually going to sleep now. just roaming around to musics i wanted to hear before sleeping. And knowing that i will have my early shift later on. Woo. I miss my team and work as well. Good day to all.

Kudos

just finished something that i don't do much. This is the result of my boredom. Haha! Kudos to me.

Retorical Boredom

checking on my clock, its 10:38. Sleepy? Not actually. Bored? Very much. Its just one of the evenings again when i don't know what to do and i don't even feel like doing nothing. I keep on yawning but the feeling of wanting to sleep wont show up. I wanted to listen to music. Genre, undecided. Err, i just cant find things to do here. Poke me up please.

Jun 5, 2009

Stubborn

i just hate the feeling that there are a lot of people who tries to over power other people because of what they have. Its like they are trying to bring back the old civilization where a king or a queen existed and would rule over the empire and when you have a cruel and boastful leader, good luck to you. I know this job is a remorse in terms of stress but what can make this job more remorseful is for those coldblooded dumb people who thinks they are great when in fact they know nothing and doesn't even know anything at all. I'm ranting on those people who think they are great because of their money but doesn't even have a brain to move on. People can love you for your money but trust me, your nothing when your money is gone. Such pathetic people exist in the world causing havoc on the achievement of peace that we should have. Damn them.

Regrets and Regression

I never thought that i would think of regretting the day that i've been with my old company for a couple of months. Cause i was thinking that if i did had applied for the company that i've been with today, i could have had a better position. I just envy other people whom i know im better with wearing a good outfit, staying in the supervisors deck, roaming around and checking all the agents available and stuffs like that. Im envious in some ways but i dont know. I should hate myself why have i thought of this. I did have a good stay in my previous company knowing that i did have a lot of friends and company that i really did have fun with. And a plus factor that i do know networking and stuffs making me a competitive one. Well i think just have to work my way up and be known. Go for GOLD! It just reminded me of our supervisors motto, "WILL AND SKILL IS THE KEY".

Jun 2, 2009

GY forever

Im starting to love my shift and im being in love with it more on more. Lol, so exaggerated but i really love my shift. The calmness of people, the availability of all the supervisor heads, the excited people on the floor during that shift and even the program contests that are made during that shift. It might be an eerie shift to work with but its worth it. Not including the additional pay we get from it. I just love you GY!
