I found this from Angel-chan's site. 'nuff said. You try it and let me know what you got! ^_~

I have decided to move to a new company for better carreer growth and though it's hard to part ways with my previous company, I believe that I'm moving on to a better place with better job opportunities for me. I'll be one of the pioneer batch and for once I feel hopeful about the oucome of my move there. Who knows, maybe I'll even rise up to be Operations Manager there or maybe even be a Program Director. That'd be... kewl! ^___^ mood: serene, hopeful, excited n_n

I saw this Korean Actor by chance (fortunately!) on one of ABS-CBN's nighttime telenovelas and I instantly fell in love with him. Gee... He's just sooo nifty!!! So, I decided to post his pic in my blog. tell me if you think he's cute, ne? ^_~ *sigh* such a cutie...

A friend of mine told me a few days ago that the “men (?)” in my life have been taking advantage of me. Hmm… at first I thought she meant it in the ‘green’ way. ^^;; I was wrong. I must admit she has a point. I’ve have had more than 2 guys cancel out dates on me at the very last minute with just the simplest of excuses to explain their reason. Heck, even hotel reservations need more than 2 hours cancellation notice otherwise you get charged a night room plus tax penalty! >.< one guy even chose sleep over going out with me. Sheesh, and here I thought I was a better person to get a better treatment than that. Apparently these guys thought different. So, I was forced to do a leettle soul searching to find out if there is something about Maybelle that makes her dates take advantage of her. Frankly, I thought I was doing just fine on my own. Like, I was courteous, not too demanding, I most definitely do not nag as I hate talking unnecessarily, I was not rude. So, that kind of left me quite puzzled. I did the next best thing: I asked friends what they think. Some of them told me it’s not me, it’s the guys I go out with –or try to go out with, that is. That they’re too involved in their own world to consider other person’s feeling but their own. But then again, I told her, more than thrice makes it a trend doesn’t it? Like for murder cases to be categorized as serial cases, it needs to happen at least 3 times first or something like that. Is it the same with love, dating and such? Kind of disturbing to compare dating to serial murder cases now that I think about it. Oh well.

I did it. I have submitted my application for a Team Supervisor position in our company instead of just dilly dallying and just plain not doing anything productive. At first I thoguht I'm quite content with a rep's life. no pressure, no additional job other than take calls. But then, I am fed up with my supervisor's bullsh*t. She doesn't have an emapathic bone in her body and she doesn't know how to motivate her direct reports to save her life and I do not like that. Bottom line, she sucks as a supervisor. Period. I do not want to be under her lousy rule so I'm moving up. Ha! And I decided to stop pursuing my "programming job" for now. For one, I do not know enough to make it. For another I think the trainer who was supposed to "train" me is too busy for that. So, there. I'll just pursue it again when I've all the necessary tools handy. Sad, but then, that's reality for me. I'm not knowledgeable enough for the kind of work I want, so I'll settle for the jobs that I know and well, I enjoy working in a call center industry anyways so it's really no biggie.
