Life goes on?

It's so cold today! Parang gusto ko nang bumili ng scarf at mittens. (feeling may snow)

Simula na naman ng simbang gabi, pero since LDS kami, siguro sapat na samin ang Simbang Puto Bumbong. Kumbaga, ang pinagpupugay na lang namin eh yung tradisyon nating mga Pinoy. Tsaka talagang masarap ang puto bumbong. October pa lang, suki na kami nyan.

Simula na rin ng training namin last week for Basic Skills.Bale hindi natupad ang pangarap ko maging Korean school teacher. Ang lakas kasi ng hatak ng call center (driving force of money). Well, not that i'm making fun of call centers. It is a decent job with a lot of benefits. And mind you, it helped decrease the employment problem here in the Philippines. Siguro, masyado lang talagang ginawang negative sa paningin ko about call centers. Na mahirap daw pag graveyard..kasi tataba ka, matututo ka magsmoke..matututo ako magkape , politika at may immorality problems din daw.

Unang araw pa lang.., hello world.. Ako na po ang reyna ng second hand smoke. Kaya pinagdasal ko talaga na makahanap ako ng friends na hindi nagssmoke. Nakahanap rin naman ako eventually kaya masaya na rin. Bale tatlo kami out of 1,000. Marami rami rin pala kami.

May solusyon na rin sa kape problems ko dahil meron nang vendo for hot choco/milo. 5 pesos lang!
***
Kung tataba ako, saka ko na malalaman..(Please lang po, wag po, pramis mag-aalay ako ng itlog sa lahat ng santo)

Eto pa..Inuman.Hindi ako sanay dyan. One week pa lang, nayaya na agad akong "sumama man lang" daw.Nahihirapan akong pakisamahan ang mga ibang lasing na nagkekwento na ng life story nila sakin na pang-MMk. Parang kumpisal sa pari. Ayos lang naman yun pero, namannn, 1 week pa lang tayo magkakilala pards.

Politika. Kailangan daw higop ka. Higop means sipsip. Pero mas uso na ang higop.

Anyway, sa palagay ko, lahat ng kumpanya merong politika. I just have to deal with this, right?

Immorality. Ito ang pinaka-kinakatakutan ko sa lahat. According to one seminar i attended in the past, they said that the fastest-selling products in any convenience store near a call center are condoms.. (silence for 2 minutes) I hope talaga, I hope that my personality is strong enough to withstand any of this. Sa classroom pa nga lang eh, lahat na ng double meaning words narinig ko na. Katulad ng...tooot.wag na censored yan at hindi na natin dapat pang pagusapan diba?

Yun lang hindi ko ma-take ay ako lang ang kaisa-isang 21 yr old dun. Lahat married, may anak, may ka-partner, parent (single or double), etcetera. Pinakamalapit na sa age ko ang 24 or 23.

I am the only one in my background na fresh grad, single, nbsb,...etcetera din. Minsan hindi ko masakyan ang humor nila. Tsaka yun nga, double meaning.

Basically, Im thankful because I have a finally have a job this Christmas. Another thing is that during training, we are paid to be entertained in class. Nakakatawa yung teacher namin parang comedy bar. Tapos lagi merong production number pag may late sa klase at nung last day ng basic training. Natututo pa ko ng Standard English accent. I'm also thankful because, at least, I'm being exposed to different backgrounds when it comes to people. Tsaka welcome to the real world na nga talaga ang drama ko.

Ayun. I miss my friends and all the fun gala times. Medyo melancholy, but I have to stay positive para maging worthwhile ang 3 months stay ko bilang call center agent. Aja Aja, fighting!

Next time ko na kekwento sa inyo ang mga funny moments of layp as a trainee in northgate. See you when i see you!
