Missing home... In Palawan

I arrived in Palawan last Monday via Air Phil from Cebu. It was a very nice trip. I almost forgot that maam nancy (dept store manager in palawan) is on the same trip as I am. So from going down of the plane (Cebu Pac from Davao) I had a nice chatmate all the way to Puerto Princessa City.

Maybe it's really the case when you are pregnant... everyone seems to be very protective of you.. heheh.. I mean, people seem to help me with anything that I carry (read: I almost do not have to carry things!) So there...

I just finished one batch of trainees here. another batch is coming in for tomorrow and friday before I finally go home to davao... to my bed (our bed, excuse me!) and to our home.

I'll be missing Araw ng Davao Celebration though. :( I hope I have some money by then so I can catch some of the sale going around the city. I might buy some baby things... hehehe...

till my next post!

Counting my blessings

I am officially 26 years young... has a stable job in a fine company in the city where I grew up in... I have a very supportive family... I have a boyfriend who loves me (and i am eagerly waiting for to come back to Davao soon!)... Good health... And 5 months pregnant. Could I ask for more?

Oh... a healthy baby come Aug 1, 2007.. or earlier. ;)

Authentic Leadership with Francis Kong

The company held its annual leader's gathering yesterday at the Regency Hotel... Our guest speaker was no less than Mr. Francis Kong. Renowned inspirational speaker and author of books such as Only the Real Matters, The Early Bird Catches the Worm But the Second Mouse Gets the Cheese, One Day at a Time Books 1 to 4

He's such an animated speaker. If you want to have a speaker who will not bore your audience, especially for a whole day talk he is your man!

Taught us what Authentic Leadership is all about and by golly he is a talker!

By the way, he looks like TJ Han (Korean character played by JO HYUN JAE)... And that's him with me!

This time last year...

We are being sentimental this time of the day thanks to Randi's (sweetheart ba?) iPod! It's all Filipino Music, love songs at that! Made me think of the time I was that sentimental... around this time of the year last year... But I would not want to dwell on that too much as they say It's water under the bridge.

Hearing good Filipino Music (especially love songs) makes me wonder why we always end up liking foreign music more? Just to be in the "in" crowd? nah! We're too old for that I guess.

Its freakin' hot!

The management where I work with is saving on electricity...

sO wHat enTaiLs thiS saViNg moDe?

1. 5 day work-week. This is most fun! Who would not want this? I mean, from working for 3 years or so and going to work 6 days a week, from Monday - Saturday. First Saturday without work was really so boring! And I mean boring, good thing my hun is there to get together with.. ;) But that was the only downside (hahaha)... The rest is all so fun!

2. Timed turning on and Off of Airconditioning Unit. :( this one is just newly implemented. It is so so so so so bad! I mean imagine yourself in an office where there is practically almost no window, 1 small door and 13 people (sometimes more) working inside... and temp range outside is 83-90F (28-33C) So freakin' hot ain't it?

haaay...

Will be going to Palawan after my birthday by the way. I hope to update soon.
