WHAT A BIG CHANGE

During my college years I was not big as I am currently. I have change a lot since I started my job as a call center representative. I am not able to do the usual things that I am doing before. I used to engage with sports and do frequent exercises to have good health.

Now, since my shift starts 8pm and will end 5am after my shift my eyes long for sleep instead of a morning exercise. Not to mention that the sleep I have during days has a different effect on me when I am sleeping during evenings.

During my 2 day Rest day I spend 1 day just for sleep and 1 day for a movie marathon. Right now I prefer just to stay at home and watch movie rather than going outside.

Also, one of the reason why I am getting bigger and bigger is because my eating habit is not anymore on the right time. I eat my breakfast during midnight and have my lunch on mornings.

I would really say that on my current state I really cannot have a healthy body as I have before.But I still hope that I can still achieve my goal to be fit again in my own simple ways by controlling the food that I intake. Still, I'm still fat but I'm seeing results in what I'm doing currently and is hoping that this would be a start of a big change.

ll of us wanted to be young but seems to hard to achieve. We tried
various ways and undergo treatments but is not successful maintaining our
active body and young looks since current products is not able to sustain
our body needs.

Research started and was able to find a better way to slow down aging.
They're able to find out that if oxidant stress will be eliminated thus
being young and healthy is not impossible.

Oxidant stress are the one causing body to age faster. It makes your
healthy cell unstable due to the excessive production of free radicals
on body. It causes abnormality to our body and disturbs the function of
our healthy cells.

Glutathione is one of the antioxidants which helps neutralize the
excessive production of free radicals and make the healthy cells stable.
It's one of the known anti aging product used by almost all of us and has
proven it's effect.



After glutathione has proven it's effect OXIS has continuously researched
a better substance which exceeds the effect of glutathione. OXIS research
has found out that Ergothioneine also known as "ERGO" has a better effect
that glutathione. It doubles the speed for eliminating free radicants on
body and it also helps healthy cells to work on it's function. ERGO is
also proven to counteract different health abnormalities on our body.




OXIS is giving out a penny stock to those who are interested on helping out for the research and development of ERGO products.

Do we have the right to complain?

I thought that my life sucks because all things that I've done till now was not according to plan. I never planned to work while attending school. I never planned to break the expectation of my parents. But unfortunately, that's whats happening right now.

I envied those people who are born wealthy, wealthy enough to tend there needs. No need to strive because everything is provided to them. They don't need to worry if they will fail in school because they have their family supporting them. But how about those people who are like me?

I was sitting and thinking on what to post next, then again I remembered about the experienced I had when I'm applying in a call center industry here in Davao City. There was so many people trying to apply for a limited slot. I started 8:30 in the morning to be the first to be interviewed. Luckily I was hired and will have to start the training.

If you think about it I really am blessed because eventhough I have so many frustration in life there are a lot of people who are not lucky to have a job. Some people are even begging to be hired but unfortunately did not get it.


I even have friends who are working there asses for them to enter college. So what am I to complain when I'm more blessed than them. I was hired and was given the priviledge to go to college and they're not.

All of us may complain and all of us may be frustrated with our lives. But there are people who are not lucky enough to have what we have right now. I realized that I don't have the right to complain nor the right to compare because I'm already blessed with all I have right now.

We are in a civilized society. We maybe poor but we are not starving. We may have less but other don't have any. So do we have the right to compare and to complain? there's a picture that will answer all of our questions.

I hope that Fedge Shacks and Callboy from Davao can also realize how blessed we all are

A fat boy trying to play basketball

All of my friends planned to play basketball and sweat ourselves. I was not that interested because I'm not that good in playing basketball and my height really is a disadvantage. But then I got along with them hoping that there's something good will happen. All players are good in playing basketball except me who's siting on the bench drinking iced tea.

They needed 1 person to complete the 3 on 3 players and I am the only 1 left who's available. I was forced to join the game. It was about 15mins when we started and I'm sweating like crazy. It was the first time in my whole year that I played basketball. I didn't have any exercise nor stretching before playing. My bones are cracking like hell and my body is begging to stop.

I took a rest after a 12 points game but they are planning again to play another 12 points game. I said no this time, I can't bear to pain any longer. I can't stand anymore because my legs are numb and looks like it doesn't have any strength to walk.

We decided to eat dinner on one of my friends house. We ordered "lechon manok" and "barbecue". While we are eating I realize that they are staring and laughing at me because I was eating like I haven't eaten for a week. Can't blame them but they also can't blame me because I was so tired and need to regain my strength.

I went home and took a bath, it was so refreshing when I feel water on me. I was ready to go to sleep. And as I went to bed I thought about what happen earlier. I laugh at myself and said a fat boy like me is trying to play basketball like never before.

A place to take a break "Eagle's Ridge"

I really wanted to take a break and get out of my fast moving world even for a while. A rest that will satisfy my exhausted mind and body. I wanted to go somewhere we're I can't see a glimpse of city, less buildings, less people, less pollution.

Sometimes we forget to take a break and relax due to how busy our life becomes, busy for work, so busy doing all responsibilities needed to be done on a given time.



We've got out team building in "Eagle's Ridge" and it was so refreshing, the view was so environmental and the ambiance was great. The place is not that great if you compare to boracay and other expensive places but I really am sure that If you need a break! it's one of the places that you can loosen up your body and relax. It was fun staying in that place because we are many and we enjoyed spending our time together.


It's a place were you can create good memories in which you can share and reminisce with because it's a place that can make you forget about all the problems you had and only think about the joyful experiences. Many says that we need to stick up to reality, but reality sucks and we can't do anything about it. Just find a way to enjoy and relax in our own simle ways by spending times with our pears or with our love ones.

No matter how much stree we become, no matter how exhausted our body is, take a break! create a joyous memories which can make you wake up everyday with a smile on our faces.

A Nobody's Love Story

A nobody is not given worth
nor a chance to be listened, nor a chance to be heard

a nobody felt pain
even shed tears but never complain

a nobody feels hurt
but never say a word
because a nobody knows fully
that he is unheard

but a nobody can change a typical love story........
typically love is fantasy
full of happiness and not misery

like a princess kissed by her prince
or a frog kissed by a princess
fell in love with each other
and lived happily ever after


A nobody's love story shows what reality is
a princess will not fall in love with a nobody's kiss
nor a princess will not kiss if you're not a handsome prince

but being nobody is not bad
in fact you need to be glad
because nobody knows what a nobody can do
nobody knows that you've got a better YOU,,,,,

A Song to Dedicate

Since before I really love to write poems and share it with my friends. I also love to play guitar even though I'm not that good at it. But most of all what I really would love to do is to make songs. First I create a tune and associate my lyrics with it. The types of song that I make depends on my emotions when I'm making it. Some may not like my songs but what I can say is that, this songs that I make are songs to dedicate. A song that speak my feelings and a song asking to be heard.

--REVELATION--

(VERSE1)
I've got something to tell you
that I wanted you to know
I need you here with me
since the beginning and till the rest of my days

(REFRAIN)
I wanted you to know
How much I need you so
eventhough you push me, kick me away



(Chorus)
I need you here with me
speak and talk to me
thi is all my imagination

I need you by my side sleeping to tight
and this is all my REVELATION


(VERSE2)
Please listen for a minute
don't turn you back at me when Im talking to you
I dont exchange
for the love that I've given you, (and I want you to know)

repeat (REFRAIN)

repeat (Chorus)

(bridge)
This is the reality..
That I'l never be with you
I'm stuck on my own creation
my illusion is you

repeat (Chorus)

END......
****************************


--Come Back to me--

(verse1)
Don't you know me?!
couldn't you recognize my face?!
Can't you see me?!
I feel so empty without you

(chorus)
Come back to me
put this pain away
don't leave me hanging
don't leave me here this way

Don't tell me that you don't remember anything
it's just so sudden and I'm still feeling the pain

(verse2)
Why'd you tend to hurt me?
is it that easy?
why did you leave me?
you just vanish leaving a simple letter.

repeat (chorus)

END.........
***************************

--Kaibigan mo lang ako--

(verse1)
nakikinig sa kantang di maintindihan
naglalakd kahit di alam ang pupuntahan
di ko malaman kung ano ang dahilan
masakit isipin pero kailangan tanggapin

(bridge)
ano ba tong nararamdaman ko
di ko mapigilan oh di ko maitago
sana ay tuluyang maglaho
ang sakit na dulot nito

(chorus)
Kaibigan mo lang ako, Alam ko!
di kailangan ipilit ang sarili sayo
sana ay masaya ka sa piling nya
at sa problema mo'y daramayan ka nya

(verse2)
Gusto ko lang ipadama sayo
ang pag ibig na tunay na siyang iaalay ko
di ko malaman kung ano ang totoo
masakit isipin peo kailangan tanggapin

repeat (chorus)

END.......

This hobby that I have makes me feel comfortable and if I'm hurt or down it helps me recover fast because I'm able to express and sing what I truly feel .

bloopers before and on work

I stayed all night in our workplace which we call "batcave" to finish the work we left. It is so exhausting because I didn't sleep the whole night and I still have a work later on the day. Luckily! it is also our pay day so we agreed to eat outside and treat ourselves in "penongs". We ordered inato meals and sisig, after eating we rested outside and smoke a cigarette because our stomach is full and we can't barely walk.

After eating I decided to go home to get clothes because I don't have any extra shirt in our hideout for work later on. I brought with me 2 shirts,1 jeans, and also the most important, is my underwear. When I arrive in our hideout I saw my friends fedgeshacks and cold transfer fixing a computer because one of our computer is not working properly.

It was almost 6:30 in the evening and my shift starts on 8:00pm so I told both of my friends to go take a bath and so we can prepare for work. I already took a bath at home that is why I was just waiting for the two to finish taking a bath. I did not change clothes because I don't want to smell sweat while waiting for them. They have already changed clothes for work and all set up. I was changing clothes and am on the act to pt on my jeans. OMG! I mistakenly brought a wrong jeans, it wasn't my jeans but my brothers.

Both of them also did not bring extra pants that's why I don't have anything to wear aside for my jogging pants. Even if it's against my will I was forced to go to work wearing jogging pants instead of jeans.It makes me look like a walking clown because I was wearing a jogging pants and is paired with a leather shoes. As I am walking towards the companies entrance I saw some people staring like crazy and grinning as if they were tickled by a thousand demons. At first, it makes me quite uncomfortable, but the heck!? I'm popular, simple as saying a celebrity. I bet nobody had dared to go to work wearing the same outfit I'm wearing.

I thought my nightmare would end because I was already inside the workplace and is ready for work, but I was wrong. My supervisor approached me and gave me something to sign with. I really thought that the paper that gave me is for termination. Luckily, it's not for termination but an NTE (Notice to Explain) for my consecutive absences and late. (phwew I was saved) I think calling a thousand saints really did work.

I will really not forget these incidents because this unexpected things will serves as a lesson fo me to always be ready for consequences, whether for worse or for better.

Filipino wierd delicacies

Me and my friends had rented a house for us to have our own office. After work we go directly to the house which we have rented and we call it "The batcave" because it's somewhat out hideout at the same time our work place. Early in the morning after I woke up and my friend "Agent cold transfer" is already awake and we were so hungry, there was no food to eat and no coffee to drink. We decided to go outside and find a carenderia for us to eat. When we are walking outside suddenly something caught my eyes, OMG! there was a dog resting inside a chicken cage. Well! we all know that some Filippo mostly in rural areas prefer Dog delicacies, it's really quite weird right!? But what I have in mind right now after I saw the dog is that, maybe some Filipino think that dog is like a chicken that's why they eat it.

My family's hometown is in north cotabato(F. cajelo). In some area in our hometown there is a specific delicacy and that is a "batud" or a baby Beatle. Me and my mother had gone to the upper part of "F, cajelo" to visit our relatives. As I was wandering the place I saw a man cutting down a coconut tree, I go nearer to him to see what he's doing. I saw him cutting the coconut tree in half, and guess what!? there's a batud on it and he's getting the batud form the coconut tree. I ask him what he'll gonna do to the batud. He said that they'll gonna make it a finger food for their drink. The man said that batud is really good for a finger food because you need not to cook it because it's already sweet and you just need to put a vinegar on it. Maybe that is why batud is sweet because it's iving on a coconut tree and a coconut is sweet.

I believe all of us have already eaten chicken or pork adobo because it's one of the famous Filipino delicacy,but I doubt that you have eaten a snake adobo. I myself is not fond on eating exotic food, but my uncle lemuel have gone to the forest to hunt and he had gotten a cobra. I wonder if they'll gonna keep it as a pet of sell it. On my surprise mu uncle killed the snake because they'll cook it. At first I was disgusted because I really don't eat these kind of food. But because of my curiosity I was pushed to taste it, and guess what?! it tasted so good. If only you'll not know what you are not eating I bet you won't really know that you're eating a snake.

This things are just some of many exotic foods Filipino have. Majority of us may not know or eat this kind of food, but still these kind of delicacies are existing on rural areas. It may sound disgusting but I guess for us to know we just need to taste it and decide if we like it or not.

What's fun on having a new name

Me and my fiends are fond of giving names to evey person that interests our eyes. Those names came from a character of a movie or a famous actor and actresses. We enjoy calling them names but still we make sure that only us will know about it and so that it will not be offensive to those whom we are calling names. These things that we're doing may sound stupid to others but in our own simple ways and without offending others it brings joy to us.

We have a team mate whom we named "kraken", It came from the latest movie "clash of the Titans". We named her Kraken because we can associate the kraken to her based on her personality, a beastly creature that acts instinctively.

We have met a lovely girl who is on training to become a call center agent on our current company. She is so hot, pretty, long legged, long hair, kissable lips, chery like chick bones, but most of all her eyes which you can compare to a heavenly being. She is so beautiful that we can't take our eyes of her that s why we named her " Eye of the Tiger", an eye of a animal which is ready to do ambush.

Whenever me and my friends are on the floor taking calls, we find ways to do chitchat and have fun, While we are talking suddenly all of our eyes were pointing to a one lady, OMG! she is so gorgeous while she were walking towards her station. One of our friends approach her to know her better and know whats?! the gorgeous lady that she approached has a big load, a big
load which she can show off and be proud of. So then after that we called her " the coconut nut.

We Thought that if we are so fond of making names to others, why not make names for ourselves. Our Alias is associated with being a call center agent and to be specific, it's how we deal with our phone(avaya). But I have also have a another alias which everybody on the production floor calls me. I am more comfortable when they call me by my alias "Baby Bear" rather than calling me with my real name "robert" because it's unique and it's fun

Life of a call center agent

My life as a call center agent is not easy. There are many things that I needed to sacrifice in order to cope up with my work.

I sacrificed my social life, I a person who loves to go out with my friends can't go out with them because their nightlife is my working hours and morning is there school time. what a world of boredom.

I even sacrificed my love life which frustrates me the most because my girlfriend left me due to lack of time I spent with her, she felt not being cared and loved by me. But then I cannot blame her with her decision because I admit that I can't give more time due to the situation I am right now. Instead of me spending my time with my girlfriend I spend my time facing computer which makes me feel like vomiting.

At least I have my call center friends which make me somewhat happy because we share the same frustrations and comfort each other during down time. They're like family to me, they're the one which you can lean on because they are the one whom who are with you always

Some says that call center is great because we have high salary and comfortable working place. But well I doubt it! because if call centers are great why does call centers hire people as many as possible? it is because they loose there people fast. call center environment is a fast moving company which means people needs to spend more time to pass metrics. Pressure is a routine on a daily basis

Always remember that more benefits comes more sacrifices. Call center is good due to higher salary but less pressure working environment is better. Well! less pressure environment is better because it's less stress which leads to less frustrations.
