My First Salary

Awhile ago I checked the balance of my UCPB account and to my surprise I saw more than what I really really expected. I cashed them all and planning to give it ALL to my parents. I dunno but there is this feeling of triumph and sense of fulfillment on my part. It really felt good! I mean this is the first taste of the struggle i've been through all these days. And maybe all this years of investing knowledge, i guess.

Being tempted to spend some, I hurried home. Just in case I would see something worth buying since I am an impulsive buyer to that effect. It's a good thing that I have supressed the intensity of buying. With all due respect, I gave all of my salary to my mom. Though I am expecting that she'll return it (She did) I insist that she should take it. Fortunately (should I say) she said I should keep it and save it.

Well well right this very moment so many things are flying in my mind like what to buy. But I intend to spend it wisely. Til this time I have thought to keep it rather than spend it right away. There's really a big difference between the money you earned and the allowance given to you by your parents.

Anyway, its good to share this feeling because I've been dying to blog just practically about anything. Well, I reckon I should somehow celebrate such a joyous event. :)

My Weekend
What a relief!! After a week-long training, I've finally have the time to give in to the persuits of my long forgotten hobbies. Watched coupla episodes of FRIENDS. Watched TV. And obviosly, I was surfing the net. But to my uncontrollable desires to further drown myself to my longingness of browsing through my favorite websites, I still have to read the materials that were furnished for the SGV Training. Luckily, I started on reading the "Just the Way It Happened: A Memoirs of Alfredo Velayo". It was goddam inspiring life of one the co-founders of SGV & Co. I dunno but after reading half-way through the book, I was captivated by how his life turned out to be successful. His life's not only an adventure but through his journey you will find lessons to learn in his life. Well, in a nutshell, I've learned that hardwork requires a great deal of time and energy but once it got paid-off you will not only enjoy it financially but something deep inside you would be fed up. Maybe sense of fullfilment.


Birthday Party of Kikay
Yesterday I went to Las Pinas to attend to the birthday party of my friend Kikay. I enjoyed my stay there simply because I saw a cute girl there. Just kidding! I enjoyed very much just by looking at Kikay's expression. She seems very happy and its comforting to know that she really likes the present we (ochie and I) gave her. T'was a cute lil pup named Bruno. Anyway, Ody's there too together with Hans, Miggs, Allen, and the rest of DLSU peeps. It's really a good feeling when you've onced again interact with them. Talk about certain updates in your lives. Share laughs and uneasiness. Well, all-in-all, it's a terrific event.

Yesterday was a tiring and stressfull day.
We haven't started formally on work but the orientation sucks!
I mean I could have dozed off if not for my candy.
They're really terribly boring.
Anyway for the next two weeks we would be having training.
Again, I would not be formally working just yet.
Anyway, we are opt to choose our sked.

70's Bistro Gigabytes

Had a good time watching the gigabytes with karla and her friends last saturday.
We watched Imago and Pan performing live at 70's Bistro located at Anonas.
Don't even know that the place exists. Anyway went home quite late around 3am.
Thank God my parents are not around bcoz Im sure to hear an early homily from them.

Another day...

Awhile ago i just had my medical exam and although
it has been said that it would take for about 3-4 hours
i finished earlier not even for an hour. After the said
exam i went to starbucks - standard & chartered to kill time.
then went straight to NBI to claim my clearance. Dammit! I look
aweful on the pix! hehehe :D Anyway, I should really loosin up a bit. I'm
gettin bigger and bigger. Can you imagine i gained 15+ pounds!
shesh... Imma do a skyflakes diet starting tomorrow! hehehe :D

Really have no time to jot a thing or two on my bloggie this past week. Anyway, I'm quite busy accomplishing the requirements in SGV & Co. By the way, I was accepted already. I signed last Monday. I was interviewed by Sir Mark, a senior associate, who is really fun to talk with. It turned out that I was the one interviewing him regarding his job experiences. Last Wednesday, I went to SSS to correct the name entered on their records. I saw my name on the list that the OCS have prepared and t'was Donald rather than Ronald. Shesh... So I went all the way to SSS Manila branch just to correct the records and to find out that it was accurate all the time. goddamit OCS! Then i went to NBI to apply for a clearance and the queue was so long that i ended up almost finishing the book "all i really need to know i learned from kindergarten". T'was really an exhausting day!!!
