Haha. My title is so random-ish. Anyways, let’s go to the updates.
About my brother
He’s graduating tomorrow! Yipee! As his “ate”, I am really proud of him because he made it this far. What makes me more proud of him is that he was able to find a job easily. He’s actually hired already. Shame on me, he got hired first than me. LOL. He also grabbed the 2nd place, together with his classmate, in the web designing competition in Makati. I envy him because his school made a banner for him and his classmate about their achievement. Wow. I never experienced seeing my name in a big tarpaulin!
Congratulations to my brother for finishing his studies. You don’t know how much joy you have given to our parents and also to your ate. I am really proud of you, Nat! =)
About mama
Tomorrow is Mother’s day. =) So Happy Mother’s Day to my one and only mama. She has gone through a lot of trials and I admire her for being tough and faithful. She’s the one who taught me that every time I encounter problems, I just have to hold on to God because He is the only one who can help us in times of trouble. Mama has been there for me every time I am down. She understands what I am going through especially when I got really depressed about my career, and health. I have mentioned in my entry before that she cried when I was about to go to the O.R. for my operation. I was really touched when I heard her crying. I know that she really loves me and my other siblings. She sacrificed her work just to take care of me (I was her only child then) because she doesn’t want her kids to grow up with a nanny. She wants to do the hands-on work of a mother.
I know that I have done a lot of mistakes, mama, but I really want to know that I love you so much. And I wish and hope that when I become a mom, I will be like you and I will be able to raise up my own kids just the way you raised us up. I am so thankful for having a loving, caring and supportive mama. Happy mother’s day!
About my soon-to-be work
First of all, I want to thank those people who made comments about my previous blog. So here is my update: I am not pursuing my health care associate career. Haha! I learned that the job description I was told in another company was totally different in HTMT. I am still considered a customer service representative. It’s just that I am under the health care account. When I was called for the call simulation, I really didn’t know what to do. What do you expect? I have no call center experience and I was asked to do this call simulation thing. Of course, I flunked in my call simulation. Hahaha! I was surprised when the HR lady told me that I was about to proceed to my final interview but she can not endorse me because of my call simulation. I still have to retake it. Why am I always asked to retake an exam?! LOL. So AJ, the sort-of-cute HR guy, gave me the schedule of my retake which I really do not plan to take it anymore because I was so disappointed about my job there. I don’t like it. So yeah, I backed out.
Then last Thursday, I was about to leave for my hospital hopping when the HR lady in Caritas Health Shield, Inc. texted me for an interview. Yey! Another interview! I went there and I successfully passed my initial interview. The doctor who interviewed me told me that I will be accepted in their company. It’s just that I won’t be able to use what I have learned in school for the mean time because there are no vacancies for nurses as of the moment. They will put me in the business accounting department and all I have to do is to encode stuffs. I accepted the offer since the contract is only for five months. So while waiting for the openings in the hospital or in their clinic, I can work and earn, right? At least, I won’t be called a professional bum anymore. Hehe.
My final interview would be on Monday. It would probably about the orientation and endorsement thing so hopefully, I will get hired on Monday. =) Wish me luck!
About my neglected blog
I am so happy that I was included in the semifinalists for the 2008 Candy Teen Blog Awards. Although I got sad a bit that I didn’t get in under the Best Over All Blog. But that’s okay. I can save up for that laptop. Haha!
