10 Great Things of my 2012

Let us all be thankful that we have been given another year to stand up again and though 2011 has been so harsh to me, 2012 at least helps me stand again somehow. Well, in fact as my tradition: I have made a list again of 10 Great things that happened last 2012.

1. Resignation from Work          

thanks to Michael Rosmer

         

Well Yes, I am considering it as one of great things that happened to me this year it is because aside from the relief of the stress from that work and that working environment, I can sense that I became better now: Better when it comes to professionalism, work ethics and a better person. 

2. Emotional Stress Reduction (friends getting back)

Kudos to Tashy

I reconciled with my ex-friends (they’re too many haha), there are no forum or talk, it just happened and I just told myself that It’s okay, they’re all welcome if they wanted to reconcile but I just don’t know if I could get everything back, I know you know that I was hurt and it’s not that easy to forget but at least I forgave.

3. My Wonderful Bolinao Trip

Me at Bolinao

Oh yeah! That wonderful and peaceful trip of mine to bolinao really captures my sentiments away. I remembered how problematic I was that time, I can still recall how broke I was but after Bolinao made me realize that I am good and that I can succeed after that trip, everything went so well.

4. New Industry

Thanks to TimmyBoy for this

            I just had my second job and it’s very different from my first one. I now decided to enter international scheme and is now working an American company. I presumed that this job is the easiest, not actually the easiest because qualifications are hard to meet but the in-demand in our country thus I decided to enter it and besides I wanted to prove something to myself, I wanted to progress.

Subic Madness

with one of my best girls : Paola 

“Let us go to Anawangin on January!” one my friend invited me last early December of 2012 to celebrate the post birthday of one of our dearest friend.

But instead of saying YES I declined and said “I think I can’t, my boss will scold at me as I already told him that I will be taking Saturdays of January as my leave as I have to attend our Comprehensive Examinations Review and the day of the exam itself plus my sister will be out for couple of days so I have to be at home to take care of my kids”

And my friend empathetic-ally said “Okay, I understand”

And just as I thought that they do understand, I still received this message “Drew, I already booked for our Subic Trip on first Saturday of January! I already paid for it! So just save that day okay?!”

After reading that, I scratched my head and said “These friends of mine are always unstoppable  I think they don’t know the meaning of the word 'No' haixt"

And what can I do? The trip has been settled and planned thus I went with them last January 5, 2012, the first Saturday of the month and of the year to have my first year’s trip.

But the birthday celebrant wasn't able to come as he spent the rest of his last night dancing and flirting with some other guys and drink to death thus he is having a hangover and can’t even stand that day. But the show must go on! I have already been lectured by my boss before I could go on this trip thus I don’t wanted to waste it. So me and my two other friends who are happen to be couple still went there and since I came from work and I don’t have any sleep at all I still manage to wake up and enjoy that trip

The Bastos

I think this is the first time I almost made a scandal just because my temper bursts. You know how I am trying to be patient as I could and you know how I wanted to be nice as possible to everyone but this flock of people I encountered a while ago were so annoying! They’re so unprofessional and they’re so bastos (unetiquette).

I’ve been having a serious business for this institution for more than 3 years now and our previous relationship has been good somehow though there are some misunderstanding as this is money matters. Now, this institution is a Realty Institution located somewhere in Quezon City and is well known for their projects in the Philippines, In fact I believed they have an advertisement somewhere. I was having trouble with one of our business partners who is not paying for her amortization for more than 6 months and I keep on reminding this institution to take corresponding actions with that since it is their responsibility. I keep on doing follow ups every month and yet there are only minimal feedback from them until I received a text message from them last January 9, 2013 (Wednesday) saying that the business partner shown up and already makes all her payment she supposed to be having before so I went there today to clarify things with them.

But as I get there the person who is happen to deal with my transactions is currently on a Vacation leave but I still insist if there could be somebody who might answer all my puzzlement. Now after waiting for almost 30 mins, that person came and just gave me minimal explanation and when I asked “Why aren’t you updating us on what is happening, you said that she had shown last December then why didn’t you even just tell us” I asked, of course it is my right to ask as I am a co-owner

But un-empathetically, he answered
