I am thru

They call it graduation. Yes, I graduated from the first phase of our training (Communication and Culture Training) at Convergys. Everybody in our wave made it. The whole Friday was filled with nerves and anxiety as we wait for our turn for the trainer's validation and mock call.

Everything went smoothly for me. I think I did OK. But as they say, there's always a thing called ADJUSTMENT especially at a point called START.

Tomorrow marks the start of our 5-week Product-Specifics Training. And I'm expecting it to be a little more difficult. But then again, I'm hoping for the best.

By the way, got my company ID.

my own little life

The opening of this year was not kind to me. Problems were everywhere; from school to family, and yet I managed to remain positive and just took everything as usual part of life.

This Friday I'll be starting my training at Convergys. I'll be working and and I'll be taking the challenges of this industry. I'll be working as a Customer Care Representative (CCR).

I am proud of myself. I am proud on the way I had my rebound when I sensed that one part of me (my studies) is not going to work anymore. I am proud that I was able to answer all the questions in my interviews. I am proud that I was able to pass all the examinations I took. I am proud that my back-up plans worked. I am proud because I 'feel' like I was alone in this battle and so far I'm doing good. I am proud that I can still boost my ego even if inside of me I feel so small. I just feel proud.

It really takes a lot of courage when you decide to stand on your own. It takes a lot of thinking when you need to decide especially for your self. It's hard but fulfilling. It is fulfilling to live your life when you have the control.

I have also realized how lucky I am to have great friends. Friends who are willing to listen, friends who know how to appreciate, friends who know how to make me smile, friends who support or contradict my crazy plans and friends who walk in whenever I feel that the rest of the world walks out.

Until now I am still uncertain if what I'm doing is correct or proper. I don't know the answers yet (I''ll find it soon.). I do have dilemmas. I may be juvenile, inexperienced and impulsive. But one thing for sure, I'm living my life, my own little life.

:-)love!

Positive! Positive!

Every time the year changes, people have this thing for always thinking positive, you know, putting away all the negative vibes to attract all the luck in the world. For me, it's really necessary, always; not just every new year.

In this world we make decisions and once decisions are made, we often say "I have no choice." We sometimes even say that we only have two choices: this or that. It's ridiculous! I say, "Come on, people. We have all the choices in this world. Just work it out!"

We really do have choices. Though sometimes they become limited due to some crucial circumstances that are out of our control. But that should not hinder us from making the right decision and pursuing what we want. You may be choosing the wrong choice but who really knows that the choice you made is wrong for a fact? NO ONE. Not unless you do nothing.

Now going back to being positive. Thinking positive isn't an effortless thing; like you in an awful scenario but have this thing called positivity is able to look at the bright side...pretty cruel. Being positive requires YOU! Once a person decides to live a positive life, one must have a sense of volunteerism, like all of you is in to it, passion, dedication. It's like having a total control of one self; exhaling anything negative and inhaling everything positive. Then when you get used to it, you begin to like it. Then, you'll love it. Next, it becomes a habit, a virtue, something you can't live without. And finally, becomes your life. It's always a process and in that process you see all the good changes in you. You see all the benefits of being positive then you tell yourself that its all worth it. It really is. Never think that being positive will just break all your hopes in the end. Where's positivity there?

When we hope, always hope for the best, nothing but the BEST.

:-)love!

Let's just start

Every new year, people often say, "Let's start fresh," or "Let's start with a bang!" as if they have scripts, blockings and particular settings. I say, LET'S JUST START!

A new year, a new blog site for me.

I've been planning to start a serious career in blogging since then. And when I say serious, not to the point that lives are at stake. Just plain blogging. You know, sharing my views and opinions to the world, trends, OMG! facts, et cetera. So, this is the start. I often say this whenever I sign up to new social network here in the cyber world: I'm a NEWBIE. That means that the first entry ain't gonna be that long, informative kind of entry. Just a warm welcome for me and for more blogs to be posted.

:-)love!
