my thoughts in bare

It was just a simple brick game before, now it’s already in facebook and one of the most played applications. I don’t know when it started. All I remember is my sister influenced me on playing it. At first, I hesitate because I thought I would be hard since I will be playing tetris with someone as a challenger and I have a tendency to panic so I might just ruin the game. After a few months, I’m now a certified TETRIS gamer. :) I played hard to it until I reached level 21. It may not be the highest level but it’s not a bad thing. It’s my game when I’m already done checking my facebook , when I’m bored and have nothing to do, even when I’m just hanging out with my friends in their house. A few hours ago, just like any other night before going to sleep, I played tetris . I don’t know my mind is so busy thinking about different things even while playing, I’m not in the good mood and can’t concentrate that’s why I wasn’t able to give a good game. The result?.. I lose a couple ...

I love reading books. I don’t have specific genre or what kind of book I want to read, as long as it’s interesting for me. I think it started out back when I was in High School days. I can still remember the first book I ever read, the “ Sweet Valley High” which I only borrowed from my best friend that time. It is actually a series book, from then on I started reading different books/novels. I’m also addicted to reading tagalog romance novels during my teenage days. I can finish reading atmost 10 pieces of novels a day. My mom would get angry at me that time because I can no longer do any household chores because of that, all I do is just read, read and read the whole day. But nowadays, I don’t read any tagalog romance novels, I don’t know, I just don’t enjoy it anymore. It seems like it doesn’t appeal to me now and I didn’t find it interesting compared before, the stories are so common and boring. During my College days, I love reading fiction novels; scary stories abo...

A few years ago, this is just a personal blog, only few people knew this before. Most of them are my closest friends. But it’s different now, last month I shared one of my post in my facebook . Many are surprised that I am into blogging. Even those people who are just an ordinary officemate or acquaintance are now following and reading my blog. It’s really overwhelming that they are interested and somehow they appreciate what I am writing. But at the same time, it’s a little embarrassing on my part because I’m not used to compliments of other people. Sometimes, I wanted to post something personal but I am now hesitant to do it because some people around me might read it and I’m too scared to know their reactions about how I feel, that they might just laugh on me. Like now, I have something in my mind to post. I want to burst my emotions into blogging but I can’t. I want to cry but instead all I do is just smile. This is not really a serious problem. I don’t know... I don’t unders...

An excerpt from the book Someone Like You by Sarah Dessen: Halley and Scarlett have been best friends ever since they met. Halley has always been the quiet one; Scarlett braver and more outgoing. Halley has always turned to Scarlett when things get rough, and Scarlett has always known just what to do. It’s the perfect set up. But everything changes at the beginning of their junior year. Scarlett’s boyfriend is killed in a motorcycle accident; then she finds out that she is carrying his baby. For the first time ever, Scarlett really needs Halley. Now Halley has to how to be strong for Scarlett. It won’t be easy, but Halley knows that she can’t let Scarlett down. Because a true friend is a promise you keep forever. ~~ This is definitely not a book review. I think I’m not good at it. I just realized while reading and after finishing it, that I can relate to the character of Halley. I remember when I was a kid, I don’t have a best friend to be called. There’s no kid in my h...

Why does people can’t just be happy with other people’s achievements? Why they have to compare themselves to others if they didn’t get what they had expected? I just don’t get it!.. We had just received our performance rank for the last quarter of fiscal year 2011. A few days ago, it’s been a talk in our office. Everyone is a little bit excited about it because it has an equivalent performance incentive depends on your ranking. I didn’t expect anything because I don’t want to get disappointed again, just like what happened when they announced the benefits roll-out for the fiscal year 2012. One more thing, I didn’t expect anything because of what I have been through for the first quarter of FY 2011. I thought that it could have some impact on the performance ranking. Anyway, here’s the good news on my part. My supervisor congratulates me because I got a higher rank among the peer group compared last fiscal year. She was happy about it considering my warning status before. She s...

A few weeks ago, I was so persistent on finding a new job. I was determined to leave my present work. Everyday, I have endless complains about my present work, the compensation, the supervisors, and the management. It’s like every day, I am just pushing myself to go to work. Last week, I went with my two friends in an outsourcing company. They referred us to try to apply in a call center. We didn’t like it, we told them that we wanted a back office position instead, since we don’t have any call center experience and that our previous work experiences is just a non-voice position in a BPO industry. The Account Manager insisted that we should try to apply as a Call Center Representative, she said that we can speak well in English and besides there’s no harm in trying, so we did. Last Thursday, we applied as a Call Center Representative somewhere in Makati. Among the three of us, I am the only one who fortunately passed the initial interview and exams. I wasn’t interviewed for the fi...

Everyone has or have our own weaknesses. Something in particular we always wanted to keep in ourselves or shall I say to keep from others. Something that is considered as a sensitive topic, something that when brought out or being talked about or even use as a simple joke, you don’t know how to act. You feel so uneasy about it. Imagine being in an interview when you’re applying for a job. When asked about your strengths, it’s so easy for us to think of something we could consider as our strengths. It’s a different thing when we’re asked about our weakness and how did we handle or overcome it. It’s also the same feeling when it comes to our own personal weaknesses. Those things are something that we hardly admit to ourselves. Something we don’t want to talk about, sometimes. AGE. Your age is the number of years that you have lived. It is the state of being old or the process of becoming older. I have a friend who’s so sensitive about her age. Our age ranges from 22 – 28 ye...
