Change of plans...
I was not able to update my blog for weeks and it saddened me because one of my New Year Resolutions was to create an online diary through Tumblr. I was hoping I could continue the routine for the whole year but it turned out the task was hard to maintain. I was busy and the work had really drained my energy these past days. I was not able to find time to share what had happened to me. I thought it would be great to summarize my February. This day marked the end of this love month and a couple of other things. My best friend, whom I have known from the first time I stepped in Convergys had filed her resignation letter and today was her last day. I would really miss her. But she said she felt wonderful because she would finally experience a normal life again. I thought it would be best to be happy for her. Today was our fourth month in this company. I was glad we made it this far. I had build friendships and more in Convergys. I was blessed to be put in here. My bosses, my colleagues, the staffs, and everyone were all fine people. They inspired me to a better person and of course, had given me a lot of opportunities. I learned more things, discovered places, became acquainted with more people. On the day the I would file my own resignation letter, I would never forget to thank these guys. Today, like many other days, I was in the mood for it was pay day and my shift was only for four hours. It was an overtime I committed as per TL's request. She was not there. I still had a bit of doubt about her. She was angry at what we did a few days ago. I posted a picture of my friend on Facebook. She was sleeping, and I could not blame her. I, too, was sleepy that day. It was just for fun and my friend knew that. My TL, however, was not in the mood for games. She suddenly seemed so serious and said she could issue a DAF for our behavior. She thought sleeping in the floor was a big deal as much as using a phone inside. She never bothered to ask who really took the picture. It was taken by one of our friends and was just sent to me through Facebook. It was not me who took it but she probably thought otherwise. I was not bothered at all. It was for her to decide. Bottomline was, there was a bad blood currently going on between us. Not only that I was not feeling good about her. I also found out I failed the SME Intern exam by one mistake. It was my fault. I would not blame anyone because the answers were chosen by me and it was a serious regret. I was not thinking right and it caused me more than what I had gained. On the bright side, my name was still posted on the bulletin board as one of the top agents in the whole production floor. I was ranked four for NRR Champions and one of the few people who got perfect 5.0 in the scorecard. We were Amazon Victors for month of January and it was really a pleasure for others to find out my hardwork. There were a lot of stuff going on in our office right now. One of them was the opening of the Amazon Store, where we can purchase grocery items in exchange for the points we earned for our NRR. Since I had a lot of points, I was able to buy chocolates, chips and a lot of other good stuff. I was thankful for the creativity and encouragment from the management. I could definitely feel their support and trust. My life outside work was equally fun-filled. We had a lot of food adventures lately, French Baker, Tapsi Ni Vivian, My Little Store, Gerry's Grill, Gumboo and a lot more. I was glad to have all my friends to take me with them and let me experience little but exciting adventures in life. I was also able to try gun shooting. It was an achievement to be able to use a real gun. I knew it would be tiring but at least I had tried. I knew I needed to pamper myself. Today, I had my first facial from Flawless. I used to go for a treatment monthly but when I started working, I forgot to take care of myself and I became less conscious of how I look. I just realized I had to bring back some of my good old habits because we only live once and I want to live this life. I thought to change my plans in reaching my goals in life. I would start first on myself. I would lose weight and have them look at me and think to themselves. I would stay humble and less extravagant for my future. I would be on a more positive look and would make use of everything I have. I would enjoy my simple life until I became ready for more. The good thing is, I still have my Twitter account, that I never fail to update. You can read through bits and pieces of my life there. Just search @LloydNaga. Till next time!
