I worked as a property consultant before and boy it was difficult, for me at least… I tried my best to look for potential customers to sell condo units which cost millions. But honestly… I find it really hard to persuade someone to shell out millions for a condo unit that is not yet ready for occupancy. After few months of being a property consultant, I was already looking for available jobs in the market. At first, I was considering insurance marketing just like what my other friends were doing, but I know that it’s just not my thing. So I opted for call center instead. I was lucky enough to get myself hired as a chat agent and the company sells computers, which I know that I would definitely love. Sure enough I became happy and content.

And now that I got myself hired as an intern for quality analyst of the company which I still need to wait for me to be pulled out from the operations, I need to make sure that I do my job well, and stay as one and will finally be hired as an official quality analyst.

*I’m typing this yesterday during my working hours*

Damn… I seriously don’t understand what the hell is wrong with the world right now. I know for a fact that theives are not something new, and that we should be careful, but for a freaking FREE TUMBLER? Come on now, seriously, it’s FREE for crying out loud and you can get one from the admin… Why the hell take mine?!

I left it in my station yesterday, and just a while ago when I was about to log in, I find my tumbler WITH MY NAME ON IT gone! I can’t seem to understand why this has to happen, while other peeps’ tumblers are still on their own stations. Is it because someone has been eyeing on my tumbler? Does someone like me too much that he needs to get something that has my name on it?! Will I be bewitched or something? Argh! I’m so frustrated right now, and I know that you may think that I’m crazy and obsessed with my FREE tumbler, but the thing is, it’s just something that I’m really used to using… It’s like a part of me is gone now thanks to that low-life.

Now you ask, it’s free, so why bother? As I’ve said, it is something special to me, not because some special person gave it to me but simply because I really love it. And the fact that I can never ask for another one because, well, I was already given one.

So now that I lost my tumbler, and again with my freaking name on it, I am really hoping that if anyone at work has a kind heart, and is willing to help me out, or has seen my tumbler, please return it to me, I may even trade it with you for a sale! Kidding!

Update: I found it!!!!!!! Where? On top of a freaking water dispenser on the last aisle… *growl*

Okay, I know I haven’t post much about what has been happening around my little world, so I’m dedicating this post for any updates that I want to share. *yes – ANY updates, meaning it’s M-I-X-E-D, no specific topic whatsoever. * Ready? Here goes nothing…

==== WORK ====

I still have shift being a chat agent, and I still have to wait for any messaging from the upper peeps, especially from our operations manager for us (yes I’m not the only one who got the job :cute:) to be pulled out. We are actually excited to start the job and we are hoping that we could start soon. :yes: Others told me that it may take few weeks… I’m not really in a hurry or something, just excited.

Also, for the first time in my whole entire career life, I had to call in sick not because I was dead sick, but I just needed to sleep… Lazy? Not really. Here’s the story:

I filed for a 2 day vacation leave for my baby’s birthday, but was declined… So I thought of waiting for my rest days instead (which usually are 2 consecutive days) to do the birthday party, but to my amaze, command center (or whoever is in charge of scheduling and manning) gave me a freaking split off (Sunday and Wednesday), so I had no choice but to absent myself from work after my baby Julie’s party since I didn’t experience any sleep after work…  Look at it this way… the routine would be: work from 10pm to 7am – go home to help out with the preparations – party which was around 4pm onwards – then work, that’ll definitely make me a walking zombie. So I opted to skip work for the first time and had my rest. I guess there always is a first time for everything…

Confession: Absent is a drug and is undeniably addicting. Good thing I only used it once and will never use it again unless necessary.

Thanks to FaceBook, I got to know the latest buzz about the work place too. 2 of my girl office mates are expecting their babies, and 2 of my guy office mates are expecting their babies too! Yep they are 2 pair of couples. Congrats to you guys! :cheer: Somehow, I’m a bit jealous. LOL!

==== BABY JULIE ====

As you all may already know, Julie turned 2 last July 14, 2009… You may have guessed that her name was derived from her month of birth – yes you’re right, and just for an added info, her second name “Rayne” came from the word “rain” which literally means rain. It was actually raining when I was in labor so I guess that would be self-explanatory.

We basically used up all our limited savings for the party and although it was fun, honestly, I kinda felt that it was not worth the money spent. There were lots of left-overs which were either given out after the party, while some are actually still stored in our ref. Also, most guests were, well, not our close friends, most of them were my mom’s workers which I was glad to serve food to since they have helped out me and my mom a lot during the past years and counting, but one of the most disappointing thing was only one out of eight godparents came, some were busy due to work (which were understandable) while some didn’t even contacted me on why they couldn’t come… and worst of all, they were my best friends. Huh! Yeah, I guess I’m still holding grudges against them… :no:

Oh how time flies by, and I just can’t believe that my baby’s 2 now. It feels like it was just yesterday when I had her inside me and now she’s running around the house screaming with just her undies. RAWR! She’s starting to transform into the “Terrible Two” that most mommies are dreading. *sigh* And just few years more, she will be starting school and the more I’ll feel uncomfortable leaving her.

==== ONLINE LIFE ====

As hectic as work as can be, we agents still find time to connect and have fun via Facebook. Currently, I’m VERY addicted to 3 applications (games actually) – Farm Town, Farm Ville, and Restaurant City. I’m doing some ingredient trading as of the moment. I’m gonna do a separate post on what ingredients I have and what ingredients I need.

So there! That’s my not-too-long update. Thanks for stopping by and reading. :cheer:

My baby Julie’s birthday was last July 14, but we celebrated it yesterday (July 18, Saturday) so that most guests could attend. The celebration was suppose to be celebrated in our garden but strong wind and rain started to pour and soaked the place wet… So we had to change the venue.

We opened up a room and used the corridor for food display and games. My hubby made a “pabitin” and a Minnie Mouse “Piñata” for the kids to enjoy, but we felt that they were not enough so we decided to throw the remaining candies and have the kids and grown ups alike grab them.

Anyways, here are some pictures from the party:

I made it! I made it! I made it! I made it!

I M-A-D-E IT!!!!!

I got the email for the result of the final interview last Monday, and the head of recruitment said that I got the job – well, partially… I’m now in probationary stage for 6 months, but will wait for our operations manager to pull me out of the operations so that I can officially start my probationary period as a QA.

Thanks all for your support! I appreciate it so much! I can’t wait to start!!!! :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
