Date on Valetines Day? Where?



Malapit na naman kasi ang Love month kaya nauusong pag - usapan ang tungkol sa Dating.  Mahal kasi at hindi carry ng budget lalo na pag estudyante ka pa lang kung saan kayo mag de-date ng jowaers mo. Pero sa tingin ko kung hindi kasya ang baon mo sa gastos pero gusto mong mag date ng bowa o jowa mo ano namang masama kung mag lakad - lakad kayo sa luneta habang pinag mamasdan ang ibang mga magsing irog na nakahiga sa damuhan? Hahahaha...


Seriously wala namang masama sa ganoon pero tumingin naman tayo ng ibang lugar kung saan pede kayong mag WWHH (huh??? Ano yan??? Di ba HHWW Holding Hands While Walking?? ) [ano ba kayo hindi nyo alam ang WWHH? WAKA-WAKA HEI HEI. . di ba kanta yan ni shakira?? hehehe.. Biro lang.. bakit ba hindi ba natin pedeng baliktarin? Hindi ba pedeng mag WALKING WHILE HOLDING HANDS???] HEHEHEHE sige tama na kayo, talo na ako.. HHWW nga yun.. ang punto sawa na kayo sa luneta kasi isang tumbling lang andun na kayo. Bukod dun nahihiya na kayong makita ng mga classmates nyo sa parehas na lugar kung saan din sila nag de-date... Malay mo makita mo pa ang nanay at tatay nyo dun na nag eh-HHWW din?? hehehe... Brutal ko naman sige katulong o kaya kapitbahay nyo nalang.. 


    Wala din akong maisip eh.. Hindi naman kasi kami gala ng mahal ko.. (weh??) Pero try nyong pumunta sa:


A) Gubat sa Siyudad Resort - Kung may konting budget ka at naka-ipon ka naman nung last December galing mula sa pamasko galing sa Ninang o Ninong mo.. Pede kang pumunta dito, sa pag kakaalam ko dun daw yun sa Caloocan located in Bagumbong.. Kung sino man ang taga Caloocan sa inyo malamang alam nyo kung saan to. Resort to mga dude so mas okay kung marami kayong pupunta dito para masaya.. Bakit sino bang may sabing hindi pedeng magsama pag nag date sa feb 14? The more the merrier .Pero sa pag re-research ko hindi daw maayos ang facility dito? Humm last 3 years P170 daw ang Entrance fee dito magkano na kaya ngayon? Well tumingin parin tayo ng iba pang option.


B) Nayong Pilipino - Sa pasay  ito makikita dati puntahan ng Field Trip ng eskwelahan pero mukang napabayaan na ata ngayon.. Sayang ang ganda pa naman ng lugar na to, astig ang dating. Wala daw Entrance Fee pero kung may kotse ka may bayad ang parking.P30. Kung match box or remote control car ang dala mo wag mo ng ibayad wag mo nalang ipakita sa management para hindi nila ipa-park sa parking area ang dala mo hehehe.. Bukas to araw araw from 6 am to 6 pm. Ideal para sa morning exercise and picnics. Sarado ang ibang features pero merong Orchidarium, kung maayos ang panahon makakakita kayo ng iba't ibang uri ng Orchids dito.. Aba tamo nga naman hindi mo na kailangang ibili ng ROSAS ang GF mo sa Valentines pumitas ka nalang dun wag ka ngalang pahuhuli ng buhay  heheheh.... (Disclaimer: This information I gathered about Nayong Pilipino was not updated... It was based last August of 2011)


C) Ninoy Aquino and Wildlife Nature Center  - In Quezon City. Maganda sya at sulit ang pamamasyal mo kasi P5 pag Estudyante ka at P8 naman pag hindi ka Estudyante. Hindi lang sya basta park kasi partially parang zoo sya kasi may mga Animals na inaalagaan. Masarap mag Picture - Picture dito.May mga Bench din na pedeng upuan at pedeng mag picnic, may playground at may lagoon .. And by the way pag ka galing mo dito kung hindi pa pagod ang mga paa nyo pede nyo namang isunod ang...


D) Quezon City Circle - Alam nyo naman siguro kung saan to di ba? Ang pag kakaalam ko alang bayad dito. May mga Benches na pedeng upuan at may mga establishments na pedeng mabilihan ng ChiCha.. Kung nag titipid ka bumili ka muna sa mall ng pika - pika at saka ka dumeretso dito kasi mahal kung bibili ka sa mga maliliit na tindahan dun. Pede ka ding mag rent ng bisikleta, kung dalawa kayo ng jowa mo mag rent ka nung may Side Car para naman HHWB kayo (Holding Hands While Bisekletaing .... HAHAHAHA) 


E) Shoe Museum - J.P Rizal St. San Roque Marikina.. Malapit sa Marikina River Banks.. Papunta dun galing sa Marikina River Banks sasakay pa kayo ng Tricycle mga P30 - P50 ang pamasahe. Entrance fee is P50 per head. Kung ayaw mong mag bayad pugutin mo ang ulo mo kasi nga per head ang bayad dito. Wag ka ng mamelosopo kung saang parte kasi WHOLESOME tong blog na to wag kayong green department. Anyway Open yun from 8am to 5 pm ... Kung itatanong mo naman kung ano ano ang makikita dito malamang mga halaman at hayop... SYEMPRE SAPATOS.... Shoe Museum nga eh.. ano ke be.... Pag pumunta kayo dun ipasalubong nyo naman sakin yung World's Largest Pair of Shoe's na mas malaki pa sa sapatos ni Ronald McDonald...






Ayan ha.. Na tour ko na kayo sa maari nyong mapuntahan sa Valentine's Day.. Kaunti lang yan pero naman kung pupuntahan nyo yan ng sabay sabay sa Feb 14. Maawa naman kayo sa mga paa nyo. Kalyo aabutin nyo nyan.. 




                                       HAVE FUN!!!!

How to prepare for your Call Center Dream Job

After I graduated College I never realize that I will become a Call Center Representative. While we are on the job training in one of the government office in Manila we often heard a lot of good things about call center industry stating that it has good pay compare to other jobs in the metro. Of course hearing this will automatically catch your interest especially if you really need to find a job to support your everyday living.How to prepare for your Call Center Dream Job?


If you are interested to apply and you're what they call "Call Center Virgin" who doesn't have any experience at all (in this industry of course, hey no other meanings please. hahaha!)  but so eager to be part of this world here are some tips that could help you grab your dream job right away.


Tips on how to prepare :


1. Of course you need to ready yourself first. Applying in this industry if you are a first timer is not easy. First you need to mind set yourself. Practice  EOP as they call it, meaning English Only Policy. 15 days practice on how to speak the language straight will help you to get used to it. Apply it for 15 days it will help.






2. Watch American Shows / Movies / Game Shows / Cartoons etc.. NO LOCAL SHOWS please. Why? for you to adopt neutral accent. If your accent is strong you need to practice speaking, don't be shy, don't hesitate to speak in English and practice neutral accent. Remember if you really want that  job you'll do everything to get it. This won't hurt you by the way. Watching American Shows will able you to understand their culture as well. So if ever you get hired you'll know how to deal with your customers because they are Americans. Here are some good shows that you might want to watch online or if you have cable t.v it's a plus factor for you.


   * The Big Bang Theory, NCIS, How I met your mother, The walking dead, New Girl, Are you smarter than a fifth grader?, Charlies Angels, The Good Wife, Two broke girls, Pretty little liars, The secret circle, Supernatural, Fringe, Oprah, Myth Busters, etc


So many T.V shows to enumerate but the main reason why I do not advice any local shows for 15 days it's because even if they speak English? You'll still adopt their native accent. I mean don't get me wrong we have a lot of very good and smart artist in the Philippines but it is better if you'll study Americans on how they pronounce their native language. Believe me it works.


3. Read books or magazines (of course American Authors). It will help you construct sentence, will help you know the right words and spellings. Try to go to any Book Sale Stores there are a lot of good books in  very cheap prices. Just pick a book that captures your interest. Mine personally are books from John Grisham, Tom Clancy and Stephen King.




4. Of course go to the first step. Speak the language. don't hesitate to do it. Speaking pure English is normal nowadays you don't need to be ashamed of it. Talk to your friends in English there's nothing wrong with that.




There are a lot of ways on how to be familiarize with American Culture. You don't need to embrace it, simply knowing and understanding will do. Of course Loving our own Country is better but learning other culture is a plus especially if this will help pay your bills and buy your stuff. So I hope this simple ways on how to prepare, help. Good Luck!!





I don't wanna be an employee forever.

I'm not intellegent, I'm not on top of my class way back. Even now in training I would say I'm the weakest link and I would be so lucky if I pass this. I'm not a TL material



But one thing that I'm sure though. That I don't wanna be an employee forever. 


The richest people in the world are those who have the ability to run their own business. Having your own business is a fulfilment in life.

You're the boss, you demand, you give commands and the rest just follow.

You manage your own time and your income is not fixed


You will have the chance to make more money and the best thing about it is that you tend to give people jobs.


I'm dreaming to have my own business, but I know that this is not just a dream for me, more likely to say that it is my goal. 


A goal that needs to be done as soon as possible.

Credit card do you have one?

Awww.. This little plastic makes my head spin everytime.. I was so thrilled when i got this little thing way back 2007… Was so excited to laid my hands on it and swipe it over the counter.. Didn’t realize that this little devil plastic is one of the reason why I cannot save BIG amount of money even if I spend my entire life working in one of the offices in ortigas,.. I wonder why my salary is getting no where.. awk… I checked my savings still the same digits on my account ( of course I will not mention how many digits.. but will not exceed millions my dear readers hehehe )..

I first get loco over this card year 2007 I think at first I hesitated to apply for one but when I was hummmnasomehow enlightened by my dear friend who happens to be my mentor, I realized that it is cool to have one.. At first I was so happy and satisfied… Yeah I told myself this is your shining moment girl go grab it… swipe here, swipe there, swipe it everywhere.. It was so amazing because you can get anything you want with this little miraculous thing that for me was sent from heaven above.. But when I got my first bill oh gosh.. My dreams became a nightmare ( well almost… cause believe it or not I’m not a big spender )





I didn’t let my credit humiliate me so I’m paying it in full when I get my salary every month ( I don’t let my debt unpaid because bank has the highest rates in the whole world you know. The more you owe them the more you will suffer ) and so there it started my dear folks…that became a habit every month if you want clothes go get it, if you want food go have some, if you want things go grab it, my citi card takes care of it.. and so my money every month they take it all hehehe….

So if you will apply for one?? Think million times will you?? I’m not against it it’s just that if you can pay it in cash do so cause believe me if you don’t know how to control your self over it then it will control you.. You decide….
