Nine Things About My Work

  1. I have been working for 9 days now.
  2. I work every weekdays 10am to 7pm
  3. I work in an online marketing company, Fireball Planet Corporation.
  4. I work as content writer. So far I've written online pop quizzes, copy for sales letter for the stuff the company sells online, scripts for the online marketing video they produced and edited articles for the up coming eBook of our CEO.
  5. My contract is to work there for three months.
  6. Sometimes, I feel guilty because when I am finished with my tasks for the day and have so much idle time while my co-workers are busy, I just surf the net (the connection there is 100x better than what I have at home) I could not leave early because I will get salary deduction
  7. I bring packed lunch everyday to save up on money. And sometimes, if my father and/or brother goes home early, I go home with them (they also work in Makati but they are both drivers and they don't have a fix work schedule).
  8. I will receive my first salary next week. But it will be small since I started last September 9 only and the cut off period is from Sept. 1 to 15.
  9. Am I happy? I'm not miserable but not really ecstatic. I feel OK, it's a good thing I have work now and the working environment is actually nice. It is just that, when I go home I could not help but feel empty. But I will stay with the job until my contract ends. After that, let us just wait and see

Old Life

On my way home from work, I saw a student holding a school paper. I thought it was Heraldo Filipino for a second but when I looked at it again, it was not. It was the school paper of Adamson University. The layout is similar with HF kasi or so it seems.
How I miss holding a copy of a fresh issue of HF. I always get excited whenever the newest issue is delivered and circulated. I miss the feeling.
My old issues of HF are stored in a plastic container in my room. Maybe I should take a look at it again and reminisce.
Sometimes, I want to visit the HF office but I feel shy. May 15, 2008 was the last time I was in HF and I left HF with a whimper. I had a great life at HF. Though I hate myself for being a loser on my last few months with HF. Instead of savoring my last days with HF, I spent it pressured as the publications were late and clashes between some of the editors unresolved. Incompetence
Here I go again. It is just that I always feel bad, guily, for not being the best EIC that i should be.
Oh well.

First Day

Today was my first day at work. It was a fine day, I was assigned some tasks which I believe I handled well. My office mates are very nice but I have to be honest that I felt out of place. Well, it felt like I was a new kid in school. I never felt that before since I studied elementary and high school in one school and in college we are all new kids when we started. This was different my co-workers are already bonded and it did not help that my field is really different from them. Well, they are all "computer people" (computer programmers, graphic artists and the like) while I'm the only writer there. But what is good is that they are approachable and I felt the effort to make me feel comfortable. I was just shy, I admit. Hopefully, before my three month contract ends I will already formed a good relationship with them.

Tomorrow would be my first day at work. I had my orientation and contract signing earlier today.
It felt good as I signed the papers. I'm officially employed already. My salary is just fine, not really that huge, I guess I would earn only half of the salaries of my classmates who work for call centers but for now I'm contented with my salary. It's a start.
By the way, I will work as a web content writer for a client of my company. My contract is only three months. After that. well let us wait and see. For now, I'm both excited and nervous. It felt like my first day in college. I am now in a new environment with new people plus new challenges.
Here I come!

Fly

I am now 21. Has it been this long already? Ha! Ha!

"Bad news is time flies but the good news is you're the pilot"

I don't know if that is the exact quote but the essence is there anyway. I read that quote while inside the elevator. It got me, especially now that I'm about to enter a new stage in my life.

I am the pilot and the plane is about to take off.

Birthday Gift

A few minutes from now I will turn 21. A lot had happened the past year. Unforgettable experiences. So many lessons learned. But I thank God for everything, I survived another year. And as I turn a year older I will soon face a new chapter in my life, a way overdue chapter.
But when I think of it, the timing is so perfect. My birthday wish would have been that I finally get a job and guess what earlier today I was finally hired!
I NOW HAVE A JOB!
Thank you God for this wonderful birthday gift you have given to me. After five months of being a bum where I experienced rejection, false hopes and so many emo moments haha finally this is it.
I discovered a lot during my unemployed time. It humbled me. I had so many reflections about myself and life in general. I guess this was God's plan. He taught me a lesson. And somehow that period of my life was a blessing in disguise especially for my family. Maybe it was one of the reasons why it took so long for me to land a job. Everything just went into full circle.
I will never forget it.
I am excited that now I'm finally here about to face the real world. At the same time, I am nervous but heck it's about time. I'm ready!

Mama

This day, last year I received the worst and most devastating news in my life, Mama Iyang, my maternal grandmother and the only grandparent I grew up with, died.
I could still recall how shock I was and how I cried hard when nanay told me on the phone that mama died. It was days before my birthday.
Inatake sa puso si Mama at nahulog sya mula sa hagdanan. Wala kasi syang kasama sa bahay nya eh. She lived alone for three decades although she was surrounded by her relatives. Sa totoo lang gusto naman talaga ni Nanay na samin na lang tumira si Mama kaso si Mama ang ayaw, naalala ko nung bata ako nag bakasyon si Mama samin tapos sinabi ni Nanay na sa amin na lang tumira pero nagalit sya at nag talo sila ni Nanay.
Hindi ako nakapunta sa burol, sa libing. Hindi pumayag sila nanay eh, maapektuhan kasi ang school. Taga Bohol kasi sila.
Pero gabi gabi ako umiiyak nung linggo na iyun. Nang hihinayanag kasi ako.
Ang masakit pa nun eh ang tagal kong hindi nakita si Mama, 2000 pa nung huli kasi kaming nagkita ni Mama nung nagbakasyon kaming kumpletong pamilya sa Bohol.Huli ko naman sya nakausap noong 2006, nagbakasyo kasi sila nanay dun at tumawag sila sa akin at pinakausap nga sakin si Mama. Hindi marunong mag tagalog si Mama, hindi ako marunong mag bisaya, nakakaintindi sya ng tagalog, nakakaintindi ako kunti sa bisaya pero alam nyo yun nung nagkausap kami nagkaintindihan kami.
Ang plano dapat after my graduation magbabakasyon kami nila Nanay at Tatay sa Bohol. Kaso hindi na inabot ni Mama yun.
Hindi ko alam kung kaya ko pang umuwi sa Bohol, wala na kasi si Mama na nagaabang sa bahay nya para salubungin kami. Wala na yung magluluto ng masarap na adobo.
At sigurado ako sa bawat sulok ng bahay maalala ko si Mama, ang TV nya na mukha pa ding bago kasi bihira nyang gamitin, ang napakintab nyang sahig, ang mga lumang kalendaryo na nakapaskil pa din sa bahay, ang sala set na naka plastic, lahat mag papalala sakin kay Mama.
Ang nakatira ngayon sa bahay ni Mama eh yung kapatid nya. Sigurado naman kaming naalagaan ang bahay na yun. Ang bahay na sobrang inalagaan ni Mama, taon taon pinaparenovae nya yun mula sa ipon nya sa mga padala nila nanay. Alam nyo ba no read, no write si Mama pero napaka maabilidad nya sa buhay. Bilib talaga ako kay Mama.
Inuwi ni Nanay dito sa amin yung paboritiong bag ni Mama at tuwing nakikita ko yun lagi ko talaga naalala si Mama.
May picture si Mama sa may altar namin dito sa bahay at minsan kinakausap ko sya dun. Creepy mang sabihin pero winish ko dati na makita ko si mama sa panaginip ko kasi gusto ko syang makita at makapag paalam. Pero hindi nangyari yun.
Pero one time, sinabi sa akin ni nanay napaginipan daw nya si Mama na magkayakap sila. Masaya ako nung narinig ko yun. At peace na rin si Mama.
Kahit isang taon ng wala si Mama, sobrang na mi miss ko pa din sya. Pero alam ko lagi nya kaming ginagabayan. Napatunayan ko yun kasi may naging problema nanay ko recently lang tapos yung solution literally went to her. Sabi ni nanay sakin si Mama nag dala nun and I strongly believe that.
Masasabi ko namang tanggap na namin na wala na si Mama at nasa langit na sya kasama si Papa Ico.
Pero syempre hindi maiiwasan na malungkot pa din ako. Nung grumadweyt ako sa college naalala ko sya. Tuwang tuwa kasi si Mama kapanakaka graduate sa college yung mga apo nya, naghahanda pa nga daw yun sa Bohol kahit wala naman kami.
Nung nanganak ate ko a few weeks ago, naisip ko si Mama. Sana nakita nya yung kauna unahan nyang apo sa tuhod. Mahal na mahal pa naman nya ate ko kasi una nyang apo at kaisa isang apong babae.

Mama Iyang, isang taon na ang nakakaraan nung iniwan mo kami pero hinding hindi ka namin makakalimutan. Mahal na mahal ka namin.

The Picture Says It All



Amazing shot right? I got this from the Eraserheads Reunion Concert 2008 Thread at Pinoyexchange.
This photo is by Jorem Catilo, check more pictures from his site, see it here.
He really have breathtaking shots from the concert.
But among his shots, this one got me the most. This was shot after he sang the final song of the first set (and well of the concert) Light Years. Ely must have really been so exhausted.
Get Well Soon, Ely Buendia!
