The Value of Teamwork

Myspace Quotes Graphics

From my experience in work there are some areas of work that needs to be done by a team. Like when we’re doing our Technical Proposal and bidding for consultancy projects for roads, bridges and infrastructures. The final proposal will not be a success if we don’t work as a team because each member of the team has his own special task to do. If we don’t divide the task it will not be completed in time and it won’t be done as perfect as it should be.

The value of the work relies upon the people who worked for it. If the task done became successful it will be the success of not just one person but of every member of the team who has done his special part to make the project successful.

Finance Plans for the Kids

I’m supposed to drop by my former office to give my requirements for tax refund to a friend who offered to arrange things for me but the super hot weather, my not-so good back pain and plenty of due tasks changed my mind. I would reschedule it next week when I’m more relaxed and free from expiring tasks. I need to save more for my daughter’s tuition as I want to enroll her as early as this month for her entry in high school.

The school’s guidance called me up to remind me to get Ruth’s exam results. I told them if they can give it to my niece who’s studying in the same school and I’m glad they told me that they will just give it to her. I’ve scheduled my finances for my three kids which will study in 3 different schools next school year. This month of March is for Ruth, April is for Josh and month of May is for their school things, bags and shoes since Gen has no tuition fees to pay. Wish I’ll be able to follow my finance plan. More opps I think!

Regaining Your Good Credit Standing

My office friend consulted me about her credit card account that has gone out of hand and been neglected by her for sometime. Now the collection agency of the said credit card company has been calling her office and residence very often to update her payment. I think she badly needed credit repair services so she can caught up with the payment needed without paying the whole amount immediately. All she need is a good credit repair plan that would help her reduce her debt without sacrificing her whole month’s salary. Same thing happened three years ago when I was asked by a dear friend to talk to the legal collection staff in behalf of her to fix her credit card balances. I was able to minimize the total amount that she’s going to pay by about 50% and she was very happy about it. She was given a clearance from the credit card company and regained her good reputation again.

:FF/FTP : Summer Delight!

It's our favorite for summer aside from the more refreshing halo-halo and fruit shakes. It's actually an old pic of my despedida from office last July. I find it more appropriate to post it now for a yummy feeling. On hot season like now people tend to love cold foods like these Selecta ice cream here, I must admit we had a lot of discussion for the flavors so we decided to buy their smaller 1-liter size ice cream so we can all have our favorite favors. My all-time fave is Double Dutch, the other one is Coffee Crumble and the one on the right is Cookies and Cream, of course with matching junk foods lol! Winner! Sometimes I indulge on not-so healthy foods like tortillos :-)

Admin Jobs

I’ve tried many jobs in the past and though some of them are completely out of my college course I’ve got training from my friend Meline who was an accounting associate. She takes care of the payroll and I take care of the admin jobs which she is not so familiar with. I do billing and collection work online together with arrangement of monthly association dues of the tenants in our building. I had a multitasking job back then doing almost all aspects in human resources and accounting. I didn’t regret it of course because I learned a lot from my previous works. Being a graduate of Computer Engineering I thank God that He has allowed me to learn many things which make me a better qualified employee.

Our Very First Color TV

I remember several years ago when we bought our first colored TV we were so excited because our old ones were the type of TV that has a cabinet-like casing for television and the more improved ones were smaller but still shows black and white reception. Well that first television with bright colored pictures is none other than Samsung which was said to be the first model that they released in our country. It was worth our money because we really enjoyed the colors and sounds of our Samsung TV. Now I was quite amazed that it has gone a long way with regards to modern technology. They have LCD, Plasma and LED television and have ventured in many other digital electronics products.

Which Heavenly Virtue Are You?

You Are Charity

Some people give until it hurts. You give until you don't have much to left to give... and then you give some more.
You believe that you were put on this earth to help people. And you do your best to make a difference in as many lives as possible.

You believe in people, and you see the good in everyone. You think that every single person and creature deserves help.
You don't expect anything for the time and resources you give to others. Giving is its own reward.

Online Job Search

It’s always been nice to transfer to another job at the first month of the year but now I have observed that some find it better to do it after the first month like the husband of my niece. Well it depends on the expiration of your contract with other company or depending upon your situation or rank with the company. I remember few years back when I only have the time to do my job search online so I will not be absent from my work. It’s very convenient for me back then because I don’t have to leave my work and my paycheck wouldn’t be affected with my incurred absences.

Now that I’m doing my work at home I also do my job search for writing opportunities online. The internet world has bountiful job opportunities. I’m just glad that I’m working in the comfort of my home. Thanks God!

:RT/WW - Stone Fish

Got a shot of this giant stone fish in Bio Research where Josh had their educational trip last year. I just find these little hearts at the bottom so cute! Anyway I have observed that someone in BioResearch is very fond of hearts as I have also pictures of their heart-shaped stone table and chairs in their dog and cat mansion. Must be someone's favorite don't you think?
