Diamond Anniversary of SGV

SGV's 60th anniversary was fascinating. For a moment there, I feel like I'm in another world. I commend the classy music and entertaining performances. Plus the good food. Is it me or I'm really that hungry? On an overall evaluation, I really think the event is pleasing as it is.

I really feel sorry for those who was not able to come to this once in a lifetime event. I feel very happy that all my team mates have been promoted to Senior Associate. If there's one thing I really am wishing for, it is for their promotion. I really believe that when I am not around anymore, they will be able to carryout the responsibilities that I have and they will be able to do it enormously well. I just can't help but feel a bit disappointed since Jing was not able to make it on time. I am also happy for some of our bosses who were promoted one notch higher. If there is one thing that I could wish for it is for all my team mates to rethink their career opportunities at SGV. If I could just use the magic wand mentioned in FGD (to change somethings in SGV), I would use this to attract such great minds to stay. It is also for their personal professional gain that will help their career advancement.

Anyway, here are some pictures taken during the diamond anniversary @ World Trade Center.

Untitled

just got in the office this early morn
i know i have tons of work to do
i miss out on my deadlines and now the consequences i have to face
do my energy ready for the challenge of another OT-work
last night i tried my best to do it but it seems i really can't
been staying til midnight but i think my mood does not care at all

by the way i already got the oz offer
though i havnt acceptd it yet, i know its not a gamble
am still waiting for added info and details on my reloc
am happy for the salary fuckage and all
but i hav some questions left unanswered
and like they say it pays to be patient and proactive

just had a pep talk last week (FYI... pep=JEZ)
realized how important i am for the firm
i just want to hear how im faring and all
but my mind is decided that i have to go
so its useless to keep them persuading me
because i have set my mind of the oz life

and few months i hav to go
i realized how long i hav to wait
but the work is already rushing through
and i know that the waiting time will just come through
this time i will surely feel that life there is surreal
when i hav to face the challenges of life
i'll just think that dis is what i like

My 30 Best Blogs

Year 2006 has just arrived. But I am reopening the past. Any sufferings and heartaches I might had encountered have already been long forgotten. But I wish to inform you that I cherish these moments for without the past, I cannot struggle in life. I encounter various events of my life everyday and when compiled it reaches into several years of good experiences and lessons learned... Note that blogging has been part of my life. And it does really help me realize my weaknesses and had often used them to combat the obstacles in life. And of course release the tension and conflicts I've been constantly experiencing.

Please click the link below for my 30 best blogs ever since blogging technology came into my life:

The interview with the Vampire

I really feel distressed after the interview with the Vampire yesterday. I realized he is another person that I totally do not know. I feel so sad that he tends to focus more in getting what they want from us and not understanding our needs. I can say this because by merely listening to his abrupt responses and his quick nonsense remarks. I am so frustrated during my interview with him since there weren’t discussions about my plans of leaving the firm wherein I matured professionally. I am expecting that at his level he would try to speak about my attainment and contributions in the firm and direct me to where my career is currently situated and what will happen in the middle to long-term stay with the firm. Or at least be professional about the situation. Or thank me for the time spent with the firm and discuss my career path. And to think that I am still at the firm and will be planning to be transferred with the same affiliated company for crying out loud. Shesh… He should have given constant communication with staff members especially seniors so that we will be able to determine what our role is and how we can co-exist in reaping the benefits and at the same time contribute positively to the firm. We should constantly be aware about our current career growth and needs so that we will not plan to move to another niche. It really saddens me to feel that the Vampire has favored to keep his emotions to himself and project a totally different personality. What pisses me off is how he dealt with the fact that he’s losing someone from the cluster. Considering that I positively contributed my entire life for this godam firm. I dunno how to react but I am totally upset and I realized how low he values his employees and how the three years being with the firm has ultimately has no meaning to him.

*I'm just puring my emotions but no pun intended and I am not mad at the Vampire. I just feel very low because of what he said and what he did not say.

Job offer...

So this is how it feels to get accepted. I literally feel like shouting my lungs out and saying to the world that I already got accepted. Martha (my EY recruiter) called me awhile ago (just 10 minutes ago) and asked me if all the necessary parties are aware of my application before she process the contract. And even told me that she will be giving the written contract afterwards. This got me confused because she did not formally said any introduction of sorts. She just told me that I will receive the contract shortly. I asked her if this is already a job offer and she said yes. And at that point, I totally froze due to excitement that I cannot conceal it anymore and told my dad about it. It's like passing the board exams once again. The feeling is surreal and I am sure that this will make my day brighter that's why I'm gonna wear red today to show how excited my veins are (ewww..) Gotta run to office since I still have to tell my partner in-charge. Wish me luck.

Rondz Monzter = Rondzter

Ey guys, wat do u think of my new picture promotion that I would put on my banner? Is it okay? Or i have to show u some more cool stuff Ive been doing @ SMB during the halloween. This is relevant for my site since I'm rondzter (rondz monzter)


This is it...

Drum roll please. And let us hear what EY has to say... Hehehe Actually EY-A called awhile ago at our home prolly around 5pm. I understand that they've been trying to call me at my cellphone but failed to reach me either bcoz my batt's empty or they still used my old number. Anyway, my sister-in-law was the one who answered our home landline and was able to get a message from them. They said that they're gonna contact me 9 in the morning tomorrow. The problem is the GMT-thingey. It has a 2-hour difference so I have to be attentive both 7am and 9am just to be sure. I'm not gonna go to office tomorrow til I speak with them b'coz its a chance of a lifetime. It's something I've been waiting for weeks now. Finally, all my struggle will payoff since the answer has yet to reveal. The thing is: (1) a positive aftershock that will cause me to celebrate and treat all my friends til I drain my ATM (amjaz kiddin') or (2) a negative aftershock that will cause and unleash the true rondzter monzter in me. Watevah the answer will be I am brave enough to face the front door to success or the backdoor to a miserable and shameful fate that will lead me to a wounded ego. Watta pack! I don't care what happens. It might be good or bad news but I ain't gonna make a bigga deal out of it. I just have to face the fact that it is what God wanted me to have. So no matter what, I will just have to deal with HIS decision.

This is it... the hardest part... the waiting...

XS - to my readers (if there's any), please inform my immediate boss and my staff that I wudnt be @ office tomorrow morning since I have to wait for Sydney's call. Wish me luck! c',)

Anxiously waiting...

I really really am anxious about the result of my application at Sydney. I can't wait to know if I am accepted. I have to know the result since this is very critical because I have to decide by Friday. Tomorrow, I will talk to my partner in-charge about my plans of leaving my current office. I really don't know how I will put on an alibi. But come to think of it, this is reality. This is what I want. This is something that I will not just decide for a day but I have already considered it since the aftermath of '05 busy season. I realized that I've served my purpose at SGV. I already learned enough and contributed positively to the firm. It is the high and right time to give myself a glimpse of the future that I really want. I believe that moving to Australia is one goal I will really want and would not regret. So whatever happens whether I get accepted or not. I think I have all the reason not to stay. For one, I can't stand the bulk of work which does not match my current salary. I do not get the value that is right for the services I'm rendering for the firm. Plus, the opportunity in working at a world-class firm being one of the best in training @ Oz. On a negative side (if ever I will not get accepted) I already have a fallback since last Thursday I already received a work offer in Jakarta. I would want to go there with my friends. But the thing is I have to decide ASAP and I need Sydney's results to close a decision.

My Personal Leave...

I really feel weak today not physically but from what I've been doing at the office. Though I have recently been under my asthma attacks, still don't have the energy to pursue things I gotta accomplish like ML, AWS, and all those crap. I mean look at my desk both at the office and at my home. It's a total wreck for crying out loud. I can't seem to find the intensity I need to boost my spirit in finishing all things that I still need to do.

Anyway since I am on leave at the moment. I rejuvinated. Found a bit inner peace in me. Caught up with my sleep, rest, and of course my unwatched DVDs that are begging to be watched. In short, I just bummed around. I still got a zillion things to wrap up at the office but I just can't seem to face the fact that I have to do it. I have to finish them in order to move on. In order to face another era of my life. I just can't focus this past few days. I think the reason is that I still don't know what I'm looking for. I still don't know if that is what I want. And I still have no definite plans of moving out. This uncertainty cripples my present. It makes the wounds look deeper. Til uncertainty diminishes and the picture clears, I think I can't move on. I still don't know what I am looking for.

Til then, i still have some hours left on my leave and gotta enjoy this thing!
