Performance Review

My company may not be the best worldwide but I would say one of the best amongst the company I've worked for. My most favorite benefit is the yearly bonus + the yearly increase. Your bonus will be based on the company's income while your increase will be based on your performance. I've been in the company for almost 3 years and I may not be that overwhelmed but I would say I am satisfied with what I am getting. So far this is the longest company I've worked with. I am hoping of getting a good career not just salary as I stay with APC.

Cebu Pacific Piso Fare

Last Saturday we got excited about the piso fare offered by Cebu Pacific. I've heard of this before but I really haven't seen a P1 price when I tried to browse on their website. That night my husband and I tried to browse through all the dates for January to March 2012. They offer piso fare for all domestic flight on the said month and also piso fare on selected countries. We got excited when we saw P1 as a fare. I even called my mom and told her we will book a flight maybe going to Cebu. Well, too bad, we are not able to find a round trip for P1. Its too late I guess since the promo started early in the morning and we are checking their website at around 8:30PM. We are able to see some great offer like going to Puerto Princes for only P650 and we are able to find P1 fare going back. With so much excitement I decided to register so that I would receive email from them if they have promos like these. I am hoping that next P1 fare we will be able to book a vacation for our family.

Too Busy for Holy Week

It looks to me that a lot of people are very busy celebrating Holy Week. Remembering how Jesus Christ died for us to save us from our sins. It's a holiday for regular employees but for us in the call center it just a regular work day (though we are given premium pay). I was able to see people carrying "palaspas," I've heard of those making "penitensya" and "panata", people doing confession, attending different mass, some people are having reunions and summer outing etc.

The week pass by just like any other regular days. I find myself too busy on lot of things. I am busy at work, busy on FB and other online stuff, busy with household chores, busy with my family, busy preparing for our new house, busy watching TV, busy on what to eat, busy on what to wear, busy thinking on what will happen in the future, so busy on this earthly things. I am always worried on lots of things and forgot that there is God. I become so independent and forgot that God is there to help me. I try to solve my problems on my own strenghth and forgot that God is just waiting for me so that I will not be so weak. 

I think I need a break and spend time renewing my faith and love for Jesus. With lots of responsibilities, I focused too much on what I need to do. I focused too much on our needs, my family needs. I focused too much on me, I, myself..... forgetting my first love, Jesus. 

Lord, forgive me for being to selfish and starting to do things on my own. Sorry for neglecting you and sorry for not being a good servant. I really am not a good child but I do thank you for your unconditional love. I thank you for your helping hand even I am not asking for help. I thank you for everything. Please help me to come back to your loving arms and start again the flame in my heart.

New Panel Door

We are planning to move to our new house before the school year starts. The front door of our house is made of plywood and is hollow inside so we decided to replace it with a wooden panel door. We are able to buy one in Gardenia for P3000 + P350 for the installation. It is somewhat similar to the picture on the left side. It has four panels however the four panel are of the same size. It doesn't have color yet and my mom says it is much better to use varnish rather than paint. The carpenter told us we can use mahogany color of varnish to make it look like narra. We are told the door is made of "tanguile wood." I also bought a double lock door with elegant door knob, it looks like the picture on the right side. I think got it for P1400 (sale original price is P1700) from Ace hardware. I used my P300 points from my SM Advantage Card so I only pay for P1100.

Birth Certificate Online

I was able to experience the convenience of applying for birth certificate online. I remember before the hassle of going to Alabang Municipal Hall and fall in line for almost whole day just to apply for a birth certificate. Now just by the click of the mouse you can apply online and wait at home for your birth certificate to be delivered. Just visit https://www.ecensus.com.ph/Secure/frmIndex.asp and click on Request for copies of Birth / Marriage / Death Certificate / CENOMAR (Singleness)..


Accept the Terms and Condition and then fill out the form. It will give you a confirmation page. Print 2 copies one for yourself and one you need to give to BDO (Banco de Oro) when you make a payment. On my experience I was able to receive it I think after 3 days when I made a payment. It was delivered to our house and I was asked to present a valid ID. This is really a good experience and I hope all government agency that we have will be modernize and use the power of technology.

2nd Honor in Class

We are so happy with David graduating 2nd honor in the kinder class. Last year he was not included in the honor roll but this time he was able to do better when it comes to academics. He we able to get Best in Math and Best in Language and Most Active Award. I hope this continues until he reaches high school. He will be transferring to a different school this coming year and I hope he would still excel. Long way to go before he graduates in College.... wow! how old am I when that time comes. But whatever happens I will never stop supporting him. I love you David!
