i have survived one month of my probationary period, and now i'm counting to five remaining months. it felt like it was a long period of time for me because i'm not used to being busy most of the time. now, since our company has a deadline for sgx (singapore exchange), i have to live by with their schedule and expectations. i can't say i'm ahead or behind schedule because the truth is, i'm learning their system along the way. and coping up was made easy by people i now consider friends here in sgx. thanks to them, i'm able to get by gradually.
in the past month, i've seen some people leave their post and new ones take over. i got to know more about the inside system and how things work around the place. i saw some old friends during lunch and dinner time at lau pasat (a huge hawker in front of sgx). dadi and i were able to have lunch togethers on fridays. and the best thing of all, we ride the same mrt together in the morning (he comes off at city hall and i come off at raffles place) and at the end of the day, we go home together. sweet! =D

7 random things
I've been tagged by faye.
I must post the rules, 7 random things about me and then tag others to do the same. Sound fair enough, right? These are the rules… each player starts with 7 random facts about themselves on their Blog. People who are tagged need to blog 7 facts about themselves and post the rules as well. At the end of their blog list 7 people you are tagging. Let them know that they are tagged by leaving them a comment.
1. i'm happily married with dadi niño with two wonderful kids, malcolm nixon and miguel noah. they are 5yrs. old and 1yr. old respectively.
2. i'm a caffeine addict also, like my kumare. but previously i'm more addicted to coke soda and never drank coffee. i learned taking coffee when i came here in sg and be around faye, blessie and michelle. and now, a night out wouldn't be complete without taking a sip after dinner. it's a nice way also for us to catch up.
3. my life long dream of exploration is a euro tour. i'm fascinated by artifacts, edifices and especially churches and domes. i know it sounds boring but for me, it feels like traveling back through time and appreciating beauty *naks!*.
4. my outlets: shopping malls or food indulgences or beauty salons. that's right. but since things are way expensive here in sg, i prefer to window shop. food, well the cheapest and fastest cure i could think of is a mars or milky way chocolate bar. i don't grow my nails anymore but i used to have them groomed to make me feel better. a haircut is a no-no nowadays (mahal mgpa-rebond no! sayang! hahahah).
5. i'm a frustrated singer/dancer. i know how to dance but it's not what you can call a 'stage performance potential'. i know how to sing, if singing means being able to sing in tune with the melody. but overall, its just ok (nyahahaha pagbigyan na lang).
6. i want to retire as a professor/teacher someday. it was actually what i wanted to take up during college but due to some financial circumstances, i have to pursue computer engineering. but i'm still hoping that someday i could take up education courses and be able to pay it forward.
7. i'm in the process of learning on how to take life one day at a time right now. i have a tendency to panic and over react to situations most of the times that i ended up crying with frustrations. maybe i just worry too much, but now i'm trying to focus all my energies to the present so i can better enjoy my friends, especially my hubby and kids. =)
now i will tag kuya david, pazette, len oliver, luzel and bernaks.
