A Long Busy weekend

It was my first day on a pharmaceutical company damn I was late on my first day because I am having a hard time, when I get there thank god they’ve been discuss the system to be made in a .Net Framework well it’s been a long system to build in. But I’ve seen a nice welcome by the employees here in a pharmaceutical company then the  next day I have wake very early so that I can come to the office on time. I am worried on my mother’s condition with my conscience but they are safe. Inside at the office. Super cool with one of the programmers there with my new department. Grabe yung welcome. Masaya. Wow! my prayers answered. Well aside my stint in a pharmaceutical company I had my final job interview in one of the call centers here also in Makati (I give you a clue this was also my first my deployment also in the same buillding under a consulting firm before. hehehe)guess what I got also a job offer to as a reporting specialist. after my day at the office I used to play with my cute little puppy here in our house(I have still have a chance to have some my pictures on my puppy soon :)!). On my first week at the office was successful and healthy environment for me with no regrets at my decision to end my contract with my previous work also here in Makati. I’m happy to be back and a thanksgiving for me for a resumption of my work because it’s chirstmas and achieving one of my goals for my plans in the near future as an IT Professional.

Building friendship?

I observed that most of the companies even the recent deployment under an IT Technical Consulting firm here in Makati City based on the University based schools here in the Philippines but when the team that I was aligned is different. The time when I was with another company, is just beside the site that I have worked before that it seem different because I don’t see some discriminations regarding personal background. But for me, Is just how to deal yourself with your officemates. Matter of adjusting yourself with other people.

My Passion for your chosen career

It’s been a decade of the lead guitarist the late Teddy Diaz at present. The Dawn considered one of the legendary bands here in the Music industry. The band of the
80’s. May do some of the present guitarist now idolizing Teddy Diaz as one of the great guitarist of all time. His death for some of his fans is brutal and we consider his case unclosed because we don’t know who kill Teddy Diaz last August 22, 1988. I was little girl back then playing Barbie dolls but with bigger dreams at stake. Spending more time doing some articles, website  and system development for me to sustain my career here in Information Technology. That was also Teddy Diaz did when he bring The Dawn as one of the legendary bands of the 80’s . When I watch the independent films here in Channel 5. The story gives me a brighter idea on how to sustain yourself to your chosen career either in Music, Sports and etc… Back then, I wasn’t able to have a chance to pursue my career in entertainment or sports but the IT keeps me open to have a good career path in the near future. When I started since elementary back in my alma mater where we using five computers at the same time and Microfloppy disk then. I have learn about the Wordstar,Lotus 123…. then that how I continue it to BS Computer Science, when I study BS Computer Science before I was helpless because my father nagging about Financial reasons, I never stop then I decide to accept typing,programming and printing jobs then, At first I was disappointed because they didn’t pay my programming services then so I decided to make an error on their programs then. But look what I am right now. My classmates before ended as an HR head and etc… which not yet practice their learnings during their college and I myself as a blogger and programmer continously practicing as a freealancer and a IT Consultant. The autobiography of The Dawn was one of my inspiration to furnish myself as a web developer/blogger here in the Philippines. Time is to fast but the experience from the past will keep myself strong as I am right now. i don’t believe on the male dominance when it regards to the technical skills, For me, Proficiency plus the experience will keep your credentials as one of the IT Professionals here in the Philippines.

A tough busy day

 A tough busy day for me to fix all my requirements for my new company. Well I had encounter problems for my SSS ID application because the approval of my middle name will take one or two months approval before I take my picture for the digitalized ID. So my application will be on hold due to my correction of my middlename. But I have to take my patience to wait. Aside for waiting the approval here in SSS. I had to finish my pending websites as a freelancer and my start to a bigger project to a pharmaceutical company here in the Philippines, It is  located here in Sen Gil.Puyat along Makati City. I have to sustain my momentum and not pressuring myself because I have another bill to pay for this but I have to take it step by step so that I have a bigger earnings more as a Programmer plus seeking a another opportunity outside this country. All over the weekend I have to accompany my younger brother to sell this newspaper to the taytay public market. Actually, I was the one doing selling newspaper and my younger brother is my assistant.

A Life is like a roller-coaster

We feel a little bit of Christmas this year despite the problems we’ve encountered on our family. Money-matters is always the main problem and with my younger-brother with his behavior to us. They said that I am plastic but my former friends said that I am not. I usually call my mother a monster mom but I usually pleased here but sometimes she doesn’t understand what I am doing at present. She usually notice something every morning in which I do every morning. I know that she is like that I usually help to her business ventures for here to earn more for her medicine and etc.. Oh! my younger brother well “A BIG Mouth” talking about basketball,college and etc….  A whole truth is he is a just a normal person but if you make a joke on him which for me doesn’t hurt anyone’s feeling but for him he is taking seriously. I don’t know what happen but my father usually tell that it was my fault but  I didn’t do anything to hurt his feelings. My father offer a help my job hunting since he served at the Manila Electric Company for 30th years, I am just waiting the validation of my diploma and transcript of records to be finished before I give it to my father. I understand about being a 72 year old to us despite his failures physically,emotionally and financially but we keep on surviving. It is only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on earth and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it were the only one we had. by: Elizabeth Kubler-Ross.  For me, Having strong faith will surpass all these trials that occurred at present, just take one at the time.He usually my friend because I usually talked to him whenever I encounter trials over my daily work. I usually thank him for the support the career path that I am engaged with.
