Indie

My off starts today so I have to make the most out of it... if I could. I still have laundry to attend to and a pile of clothes to iron later nobody can take care of all these things but myself. I can't wait to get my salary tomorrow, yay. 

I'm so bored at work since the internet lockdown especially during avail I just stare at my monitor and wait for my shift to end. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day which is a US holiday although it doesn't really matter because if you work in BPO companies you get to come to work even on holidays may it be a local or US holiday.


I'm satisfied with PLDT Vibe, our Internet works better compared to our previous ISP (Internet Service Providers) I hope it stays that way so I don't have to switch providers again.

No Internet, No Life

I was on leave for a week and got the shock of my life when I came back to work and found out that our Internet access in the office was blocked by our IT (information technology) department. We are restricted access to our most important tool/search engine, Google. We use Google a lot for research or to find additional information even if we have company provided resources because we find it more helpful, a lot.


I work in technical support btw and I understand that most employees including myself use it for non-work related stuff, to be honest, such as checking personal emails, online banking, etc. but they should've taken into account that employees use online simulators as an aid in troubleshooting Internet/email related customer concerns. We need access to simulators of different operating systems even client emails so we're sort of impaired with what the company did. It's like blind troubleshooting, to be honest. It's just not fair.

SSS ID Application

At last, I'm done with my SSS (social security system) ID application. Believe it or not, it only took me an hour unlike before, the process will take a day or two. Since they renovated their office, the service improved a lot too it was much faster than before. They also have more seats available and the air-conditioning system works so it's less stressful. I've given up twice applying for an SSS ID because I didn't have a good experience. The process before was quite tedious good thing a lot has changed since then.


I'm still playing "Rally Pro" on my phone when my name was called I wasn't even prepared I thought it'll take longer but of course I'm glad that my turn came sooner. I kinda hate the guy who took my picture from the ID section booth he asked me if I can take my nose stud off so I told him I couldn't. I had government ID pictures taken before but no one asked me to do that. I understand that maybe it's a protocol I'm just wondering how come they're not calibrated.


Mom saw my new TV and she liked it because the screen is quite big. I gave her my old TV so when they go back to Baguio she can put it in our bedroom.

Welcome to the World

I got home past 4 in the afternoon after a stroll in the mall with my sister. I'm supposed to buy a pair of sneakers but as expected the store didn't have my size I thought I'll just save the money maybe next time they'll have my size already.  I bought my friend a birthday gift from Marks and Spencer I hope she'll like it. I had a sleepover in my sister's apartment last night because I heard that our toy dog Harriet just gave birth to 2 bouncing puppies I got really excited of course since we haven't had puppies in a long time. 


I'm so stuffed I feel like throwing up I don't know why I feel like this I just only ate a regular sized Tonkatsu meal and a large red tea at Tokyo Tokyo. I swear I'm not having dinner anymore unless I have a plan to kill myself. Burp.

New TweeVee

I bought a new sharp TV yesterday for a reasonable price from an appliance retail store here in Antipolo. I paid cash because the installment basis would cost more. I love my new TV, it's not the flat screen I've always wanted but it's a 21-inch screen. I think I deserve to buy something for myself since I've been working so hard. I guess I've been blessed so much this year. I didn't expect to get a bonus this early so I'm really thankful.

Happy Halloween

I've decorated our house with Christmas stuff so I can somehow feel the spirit because it's 8 more weeks to go and it's Christmas. Halloween should come first we have so many things going on in the office but I'm not that thrilled so I don't think I have to dress up 'coz I'm always feeling Halloween hehe. 


I don't know who started associating Halloween with macabre and horror but whoever did it kudos to that person it makes everything more exciting and fun. On a serious note, we must not forget our dearly departed loved ones. I have nothing against the whole Halloween fun but hopefully, people will not forget the essence of All Soul's Day. 


On that note, it's dressed down tonight, yay.
