3 weeks

it's exactly 3 weeks since i came back from china and up until now wala pa rin akong trabaho. i still don't have the heart to break the bad news to my mom that i am unemployed. she hesitantly supported my decision to leave my previous company to go to china but she still did. i know she deserves to know the truth but i don't want her to worry for now because eventually, i will need to tell her. hindi naman ako nagpapabaya, i am actively looking for a job and hopefully someone will employ me soon. i am crossing my fingers.

lazy sunday

sent a few applications today. i'm gonna try my luck in SG with a friend.

-------------------

i brought up to my mom that i would like to study again. maybe web design. since, i like staring at my computer a lot perhaps this will be something that i will be good at.

a few days back, i looked for graphic design schools and found out that this is not something cheap. i inquired at first academy of computer arts and i was so shocked at how much the fees were. web design is a whopping 50,400 pesos for a total of 184 hours while print media arts cost 58k. i told my mom about it and it seems that she is ok with it. buti pa ang nanay maraming pera. hehehe! i am also considering philippine center for creative imaging. they have short courses for web design for less than 10k. this is only a 2 day seminar though. medyo malayo lang ang location nila kse nasa pasong tamo pa sila. i also checked on informatics' courses but i didn't find web design in their list. sana lang matuloy to. pero bago to kailangan ko munang makakuha ng trabaho para may maipang-tustos ako. nagloloko na naman ang sun broadband ko. sana bukas mapalitan na kita.

--------------------

nga pala, nagloloko rin ang kuryente namin. kumikislap-kislap ang ilaw namin. so, i called meralco earlier to have it checked. sabi nung girl na sumagot within tonight daw pupuntahan. i called ng mga 8pm sabi within 2-4 hours daw e 11pm na wala pa. tapos nakakandado na rin ung gate nung lola ko kung saan nakalagay ung kuntador ng kuryente kaya kahit pumunta sila wala na rin silang magagawa. so ayun we decided na matulog na. actually, ang nanay lang ang natulog kse ako eto blogging. as i am typing this entry, humihina pa rin ung kuryente namin kse humihina ung ikot ng electric fan dito sa tabi ko. nagshut down nga pala ung ilaw at electric fan namin kanina buti na lang patay ung tv namin. kanina lang i checked my phone may 2 missed calls baka ung technician ng meralco. sana bukas ng umaga na lang sila bumalik para magawa ung kuryente namin.

cover letter

one thing i hate about job applications is writing a cover letter. that is why i prefer walk in applications because all i have to do is show up and give my resume to the company and that's it. but here i am, writing cover letters for my job application. oh well, the things you would do just to get a job. :D

------------------

i read a tweet from carmen soo's twitter acct that made me think. i might be looking for something that is already in front of me. i hope i finally realize and find it. maybe then, i would be happy and contented.

keeping the faith

i am not sure what the future holds for me but i am glad i took chances whenever i get to have one. i might have failed a lot of times but at least i learned. i've always felt that i am a mediocre because i was never good enough in whatever i get myself into. in the 31 years of my existence, i still can't find my niche and i am not sure anymore what i want. i just pray that the good Lord will guide me and finally find my small place in this world.

hoping to work again

just finished my interview with a client half an hour ago. i'd like to think that it went well because he seemed pleased with my answers during the interview and asked me the time i prefer to work before we ended. i hope it's a good sign. by the way, i need to get a new ISP. my connection is not as reliable as before. anyway, i am hoping that i get this job and get over this boredom soon. most importantly, i get to pay our bills by next month. wish me luck kids.
