Received an SMS from my Mom last Monday:

"Scheduled for interview si Gem sa Dec 1 kasi TOSFEL Nominee siya sa Youth Category...."

I'm so happy when I read this message when I woke up last Monday. This is an honor for my sister and of course for our family.

TOSFEL means Ten Outstanding San Felipenians. This award is being given to San Felipenians (people of our town - San Felipe) during our Community Affair being held every other year if I am not mistaken.. *sigh, been so long when I attended the last Community Affair. Once you got this award, you will be placed on the list of the Town's Famous people. My sister was chosen to be a nominee because of such reasons:

- she graduated in HS as the class valedictorian - March 2008
- she passed the UPCAT (UP Entrance Exam)
- she passed the DOST Scholarship Exam

She is currently taking up BS Biology and in her 1st year, 2nd sem at the University of the Philippines - Los Baños. And she needs to go home to Zambales this weekends for the interview on Monday.

These are the reasons why she was one of the nominees and of we are excited and hoping that she'll get the award for the category. If she'll get this award, she will be the 3rd on our family to get the award. My Dad and my Kuya got the same TOSFEL award last 1991. My Dad got it because our farm equipments (farm tractor, thresher and trailers) were used to help evacuate people in our town during the Mt. Pinatubo eruption on 1991. On the other hand, my Kuya has given this same award because he was the first in our town to compete on a Regional Quiz Bee in history (Sibika at Kultura that time). He got the 2nd place on this stage and he was Grade 6 then. So lucky 'coz after 17 years, here we go again, a nominee from our family was chosen. I'm just so happy.... (sana ako din.. bwahahahahah)

At exactly 9:30am this day, I feel good when I got home just because I see my family busy all together playing games (including my youngest).  Around 2pm, I was in panic, I have to fetch my eldest and I thought Im late already. I was sleeping from 11am - 1:58pm when hubby woke me to fetch my son. Either that or lull my youngest baby Cyrus into sleep which as I saw it was far from reality. By the time we (I and Cedie) got home, I feel annoyed because he does not want to take a nap and Im all too ready to fall at my feet and sleep. When finally he agreed to take a nap, I noticed that few clothes I laundered yesterday are still in the terrace and are waiting to be hanged. I stopped for a while and think "Will I be selfish enough to sleep first then take care of it later? but I thought to myself, " Putik, bka bumaho yun". So I immediately got a pail of water, put some downy isang banlaw on it then put the clothes on the pail then hang it. By the time I finished its already 3:35pm, and I said to myself, "Eto na, finally matutulog nako".

And so I slept. 6pm, I felt hubby waking me up, saying sorry he needs my help. He needs to fix our dinner but no one will hold baby cyrus and I said "Papa, maawa ka namn, sa 5 oras yta na itinulog ko, durog pa,  bigyan mo nman ako kahit 1 oras pa". So let me be. I stirred in mysleep later and realized its already 7pm and I saw hubby, apeparing so exhausted while saying, Ma, gising ka na..". I immediately got up and say "Cge akina si baby". "Kumain na ba si Cedie?" "Oo", he said.

So hubby and baby finally settled to sleep while I went downstairs to see my eldest playing with his buzz lightyear action figure. When I looked into kitchen, the sink is full of unwashed plates, unwashed feeding bottles. So instead of eating right away, I wash the dishes and the sink first, By the time I finished its already 8pm. Afterwards I ate my dinner,  - cold leftovers.

"Cedie, maglinis ka na" I called to my eldest. Good thing, he did not argue this time and by the time I got him into his pajamas, its already 8:45pm. Then I went up only to see hubby saying, "Hindi ako makatulog", ang sama pakiramdam ko". I said, magshower ka muna para gumaan pakiramdam mo. He said he already did. So went down and ate some green mangoes and went right up.

By 9pm, I looked into my son's notebooks although I know he does not have any assignments. I noticed he used up almost all of his notebooks and needs to be replaced. I ran again to the store who sells notebooks, which is 2 blocks away. I noticed a stall selling fries and shakes. I bought some and then went back home. I called my son and hubby for fries and shakes while I fix my son's notebooks by covering it with the right color of art paper and plastic cover.

Around 9:30pm, hubby and eldest said goodnight. I finished what I was doing at exactly 10:10pm. Then I quickly ran to the bathroom, had a quicky bath, then went up to put clothes on, went to the sink to brush my teeth, grabbed my bag then went outside. It was 10:21pm.

By the time I got to Buendia, there is  no jeepney in sight, I sighed and prayed I wont be late. It was 10 :55pm when I got to Ground floor of the office, 10:57 when I got to my locker then 10:59 when I log in (with no tools yet), then went on avail.

I felt tired, bust satisfied that his day although not the most productive day has been a blessing with my family, with my eldest not having nth tantrums for today, with my baby happily cooing by himself and hubby being there, supportive and as tired, if not more, as I am.

I'm stilll, alive..

After being buried six feet under for so long, I finally managed to dig my way out. There's were a lot of things that happened during the weeks that I did not blog...that includes my ups and downs during my training with infonxx. Hard, but my sweat ang blood worked out.

Check out my new office mates:

 

A happy bunch indeed. We're UK batch 101, team 103. Struggling to be adopted by great TL's and pass every QA from our monitored calls. Controlling ourselves from drinking too much cold water, as we are protecting our "golden" voices. 500-800 calls a day, assisting customers from business and residential listings to cinema and train times.

There's a lot we've been through but luckily, we survived...including me of course. And here's the proof:

 

Finally wearing the black line...graduated, I mean.

After a week of being an extendee, here I am. A probi CSR. Haha. I really have to thank God for that. Thankkful that I have another job. OMG.

Well, til here. I really really really will try my best to blog, if not every day, every other day.

Updated. Thank God.
