life's at work

kanina, medyo hindi ako kinausap ng isang officemate ko, maybe because i hurt him when i gave my feedback about the lay out of our thematic presentation, sometimes, you didn't like to give strong message but you were forced to do so - this is to improve your team's performance. hirap din talaga to deal with people, you can't please everybody. sometimes di mo maiwasan maging bad. but before 4pm today, i send him email, just to close the gap, there maybe some disconnect somewhere, but it's good that he accepts my apology " trabaho lang, walang personalan" at least i can have a good night sleep later.

departmental test

i was proud sa result ng exam ni baby bear, despite of having a flu last week, she made it to the top, wow, galeng. 2 out of 5 exams are perfect, the rest are 94, 92, and 91. on the other hand, she did not make it on the speech contest, mahina daw ang boses niya, nakausap ko yung teacher niya kanina, but i'm still proud, siyempre achievement pa rin yung pag-akyat niya sa stage without her parent's at the front. more to go baby! we are so proud of you.

again, she deserve a recognition, pat on the back and a cup of ice cream will do. we love you baby bear!

battle of the tongues

baby bear is currently performing on the stage, parents are not allowed to see the contest, that's why im here at the office blogging - ninenerbyos ako eh. sana ma perform ng anak ko yung piece niya and hopefully wala siyang stage fright. kahit di siya manalo, yung umakyat siya sa stage at mag perform in front of everybody, for me winner na rin siya. i'm so proud of you anak! this is one great milestone for her, she's only 5 years old and yet sumasali na siya sa mga contest sa school, ako ata at that age, eh walang kamuwang muwang, iba na rin ang mga bata ngayon, palibhasa maaga sila ipinasok sa school yung social skills and interactions with their peers maagang na develop, which they can use when they grow up, they will likely to have high self esteem.

baby bear is our source of joy, next to God, we were so blessed to have such a wonderful kid - there are times that i and papa bear had misunderstanding, it was baby bear who makes our day complete.

flu

halos 1 week din nagkasakit si baby bear, thank God maayos na pakiramdam niya today. pabago bago kasi ang panahon dito, mainit sa umaga tapos uulan sa hapon at gabi, actually ako naman ngayon, ang sama ng ubo ko, salamat din at friday na, rest day ko na bukas yehey. two days din akong leave, pagpasok ko tambak na naman, the project i thought was completed already turned out to have jammed in my absence - kaasar, walang nag monitor.

on the other hand, minsan di ko rin masisi team mates ko kung mawalan na sila ng passion to give their best shot, parang wala na kasi kaming job security dito, any moment, pwede mapasama sa retrenchment. sa sept 30, half of my team mates are leaving due to cost cutting, yung mga maiiwan kawawa rin dahil mag aabsorb ng work load ng aalis. it's hard to deal with uncertainties - emotionally stressed ang mga empleyado.

dream car

here is 'WOP" our old car, we cried when we let go of her, 5 years din namin siyang kasama
and here is "ZILVESTER" our new car, parang magkamukha naman sila pati kulay, though medyo high end nga lang tong si zilvester dahil automatic na, hirap ng manual sa traffic.

meet my "dream car" next year akin ka na he he he (wish ko lang)

school play

meet my baby bear - she played a doctor role last week, ang cute.

as usual proud stage mom na naman ako.

smart bro

finally, long wait is over, we have internet connection na at home, this has been my wish since we moved in here in laguna last april, pldt wi-fi connection here is so slow, thanks to smart bro, i can now log in at home.

yehey - my 2 days telecomuting in a week is no longer a dream, WLE na talaga.

speech contest

got a message from her teacher that baby bear is joining the speech contest on August 27, so happy that my little princess is now having an exposure. she's quite good in reciting a poem and speaking in english - she has been exposed to different races in her previous schools and english is their medium so it won't be hard for her to memorize her piece.

go go go baby bear - stage mom na naman ako nito, i'm so proud of you.

i'm back

it's been a while since my last posting - my pc crashed, had to recover my files. both baby bear and papa bear are happy with my pasalubong - though credit card billings are now filing up, makita ko lang silang masaya, happy na rin ako.
