wednesday to friday's worth

-
 After rushing to accomplish some stuff at the office last Wednesday, I immediately packed my bag for a long awaited music recital at the CCP. I have scheduled this appointment one month in advanced just to make sure that all other appointments get cancelled for this one. Theia and Anna met me up at harbor square, then we saw tita grace and kuya elmer at the theater. It was a night of beautiful music.

The last time i had been to CCP was during Miss Saigon pa, and watching beautiful concerts has been quite a while already. So to say that the concert was a stress reliever is an understatement. Its description would have to be a mixture of having a cold bath after a long hot day, having your bad dreams pulled out from your memory, and it also felt like flowers and prairies. I can testify through this that the best things in life are free. (see free seating on the ticket).

stolen photo of the theater.. tsk tsk tsk

After the concert (around 10pm), I hoped on the last trip of the bus that will take me home to Los Banos. The late and comfortable bus ride brought me straight to three new puppies, three new kittens, a comfortable bed and a happy house invasion from my college homies.

I tried to keep up with their energies, but my old person body got the best of me so I left them as they were and lulled myself to sleep. Woke up to my favorite beautiful rainy mornings of Los Banos and did the following things until today.


  • Had flu shots:


  • Went to a coffee shop to send some urgent emails and do some phone calls that can't wait as well 

  • Went to UPLB to claim honorariums for panelling at theses and practicum defenses. (I'm actually getting more fond of UP now, because its still paying me some good stuff even if I temporarily left it behind)

  • Facilitated the TESDA accreditation of my electricians (they passed.. *wink wink*)
  • facilitated the logistics of the preparation audit of our company; boss told me that we did good... :)
  • had MERALCO start digging for the electric posts inside the condo complex
  • got audited for the first time as site lead auditor and received not bad comments. :)
  • had Mon's practicum application approved by his immediate supervisor, for further approval of the vice president (keep your fingers crossed)
not bad. not bad.

The 30 day exercise. Day 01

-
It's been a while since I've been here. It's quite interesting to look back and see how the old me thought, and how much I still feel the same in some ways while also being different in others. I think I want to try and revive this space because I've been feeling a bit lonely and wanting someone to talk to at the end of the day. And since it's usually just me and my dog after long days at work or on weekends, I thought maybe I'd write it down instead of paying for a therapist. So, I'm currently at a crossroads. I think I know what to do for the next year, but I still don't know the answer to the "where" part of things at the moment. But more than that, I kind of want to assess where I'm at. I saw this Instagram reel (I know it's not the most reliable source, but it seems okay) about a 30-day exercise where I carve out 15 minutes of my day to answer three questions in a notebook. Instead of writing in a notebook, I'll write here inst...

DAY20: MERALCO yellow card & DAY21: network/ sphere of influence

DAY20: MERALCO... for the Yellow Card For all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams (hahaha), am still is thankful to MERALCO for Day20 because they gave me the yellow card for my project. Though its not yet the final stage, its konti na lang before my application finally gets done. The MERALCO yellow card made me a happy girl today Leaving would be a little less stressful now... DAY21: Network/ Sphere of Influence It was my first time to sit down and perform this "family tree" activity; due to time constraints, I basically just doodled whatever it is that came first in my mind. The mechanics is to simply draw five concentric circles, put your name at the center, the names of your immediate family at the next circle, names of household on the next, relatives next and affiliations on the last one. I've realized that if only I had more time and more sipag to do this, a single sheet of A4 paper would not be enough for all the people I have dealt w...

DORK, PROFESSIONAL DOG WALKER/ PET SITTER & DISHWASHER EXTRAORDINAIRE

-
Image
  Left my engineering job to be an official dork, professional dog walker/ pet sitter and dishwasher extraordinaire. My first day was today and it went ok naman: Fed the dogs, exercised, ate a lot of fruits, got my nails done, bumped into a friend, went to the market to buy dog food, went home, fed my dogs and walked them around the neighborhood. An official  dork  because I'm back into books (text books) and its quite nice that I find it really enjoyable to do so. I now have more perspective and imagination with regards to technical writings such as this one.  Am also trying to do a schedule for the lag time that I am currently in now; I'm finding it hard to live life without checklists and schedules I don't like the feeling of being unproductive. So, doing the list and schedules to make productive use out of my time. Professional dog walker/ pet sitter . I am unselfishly giving myself at the expense of these creatures because they need a lot...
