client call

Lately, I've noticed that I'm always out of the office, being on Sales i can do it w/o any questions ask but of course i have to report when i get back.

I found myself walking around the Metro with my heels on..
I get tired most of the time but i can say that i love my work so complaining is non-sense. Getting a car is actually came crossed my mind, I'm not sure if brand new or second-hand, one thing is for sure, getting one is not my plan for this year maybe next year, just in case it will push through i'll ask the expert-Bryan my God's Gift (GG).
In Single's for Christ GG means your other half or boyfriend/ Girlfriend. Well, there are a lot perks when i'm out of the office meeting old/ new clients, I get to meet the people from the top, bosses from different dept. esp IT folks but sometimes even the GM levels down. I can't imagine myself back in college that i'll have this kind of opportunities.


There are things i don't like when i'm visiting my clients, as mentioned, i don't have wheels so it means that i used saying sorry to my shoes coz its sole (takong) is getting thinner & thinner each and everyday, it's like a Printer that when it reaches the duty cyle, maintenance kit or change of Takong as we call it in the Phils. must takes place.


Knowing that i have slight scolio, i can feel the pain at my back carrying heavy stuff like my laptop, thank God that i owned a netbook now w/c has Outlook for my business emails, it's super lighter than what i had before. 


Umbrella and Sunglass must be at my bag coz weather is super unpredictable.


Cash is very important, noone can pay using card for the  daily transpo like mrt, Jeep, tricycle & Cab. Most likely i'll ride a cab to save time, to save some energy and to save some face w/o sweat :D


Yes, Money is impt coz when i'm out i will eat at a cozy place, i will charge my netbook to a coffeshop, i will buy myself  a cup of yogurt to reward myself..to pamper myself even more i used to get a thai massage to regulate my blood flow, i think being on sales is one of the most stressful jobs in the world but according to our big boss "Being on SALES could be very rewarding"


I can attest to that. My realization: Work Hard so i can spend HARD and save More!

household

Household word in Singles for Christ (SFC) means Prayer Meeting. It's on a regular basis, it something that as much as possible not to be missed. My heart and mind would really like to attend our household tonight but i didn't coz  i'm sick due to headache & a lil fever Plus i need to take care of my grandma coz there's no one who can look after her tonight, of course papa is there but my presence here in the house is still needed. I was able to let my grandma eat and drink before 6PM. I was trying to make her smile and happy. I miss her talking coz she's not talking too much nowadays. I hope she'll eat more food than her usual. I don't want her seeing eating thru tube. I love my Lola so much.


going back to me missing the household, my mind is really there right now, i will get rest now coz i can't afford to get sick next week, I will start to meet the sisters from our chapter to know their concerns and to discuss the service that they are in right now.
Household is in my system, I hope that the lower household are doing their service too!
i'm wishing that i could be there when my sfc chaptermates needed me the most! :D

7 days after SFC international Conference

I stand for Jesus!

Exactly last week Friday, i was in Camsur & Legaspi.. I together with my sfc friends visited the Cagsau Ruins and the perfect Cone of Mayon Volcano.
I've seen the sunrise, the sunset and the full moon..The feeling was so overwhelming being close to nature, away from Work and chaos here in Manila. I attended the Conference of SFC (18th) with the Theme " I Stand"
My picture above shows that i'm standing @ the Fort of Jesus. We are God's army, today, i'm out for the thing called war, and this work is my battlefield, i'm doing a lot of stuff to the point that i don't know what to prioritize. I'm closing 8M deal from one of my microsoft clients and closing 2.5M from one of my HP clients. Wow, i feel so blessed. God is giving me a lot of opportunities, i don't have the right to complain coz this is what i asked God to bless me at my work. I will do my best not to compromise my values and virtues on my work because I am for Jesus and i'll stand for Him!

event @ Marriot

Marriot Hotel Manila Phil, i'll see you tom.  I'll see not only you but a lot of people. Tomorrow,  i need to wake up an hour earlier coz tom is Microsoft Event for clients, CIO level.
Oh my, We were asked to review the link on Microsoft Hyper V and SCCM products but until now i haven't started yet..Officially...
I have a general idea what a software Virtualization is all about..Even System Center, but yes, i need to review so just in case client will aski can answer immediately..i'm running out of time, i need to read faster and comprehend it more.. I can do it, i know i can besides i'm on sales, i don't need to learn too much technical stuff :D
given enough time, i'll review everything, maybe tom during the session i'll read too..so i'll just bring my Netbook :) Goodluck and i know that God will help me.. so here i go now, will start to check on the whitepapers & other resources..

clothes to go

They said that if you have something that you don't use for a year it means that it doesn't belong to you anymore. i was shocked last night after receiving text messages from my sfc friends that 2 of our members were hit by the big fire @ Tala, Pagasa.. We are still campaigning to give clothes coz that's their urgent need. I decided just few hours ago to give my not too old clothes, sort of branded clothing, i barely use it coz i think i gain some weight, or some extra baggage on my tummy..hahaha!

i was happy giving that away coz i know in my heart that a simple gesture can really help a lot!

i believe that posting something to our Chapter wall at FB is not enough, so i decided to make this flyer at the right so we can tag everyone!




i tagged people from our chapter. ate joy& JP tag our other friends in the community..


Tongee said that he'll include nina and gerald on his lists of people that can get his donations. Efforts appreciated.:D


thanks to Kuya ronnel for texting everyone and asked for Help too, we felt his presence @ OUR chapter.


We already turned over the stuff to Gerald from anna & aga with Love..
 my clothes are for Nina..some went to Gerald's mother..
i remember that Anna prepared something for Nina too, i saw a pair of  Havianas & some Doritos, tissue, etc! nice, she's so generous:D

God is so Great for giving us a kind ^ loving heart !!!

Hot Air Balloons:D

those 3 hot air balloons were the only balloons left @
the ground when we arrived at the venue..

super traffic..it could have been a 5mins ride but
 we weren't able to move!!! for an Hour!

Despite of being a little late, we were able to see
the hot air balloons
from the car..Not too bad at all:P

Ignorance is boring, Live Curious....
@ NATGEO's Booth with Tess:D

the sun was so High @ 10AM.. That made me look so TAN.

had a sumptuous meal at dencios..thanks to allan&Tess treat :D

***after Lunch, we went to PureGold Duty free, tess and i went inside to buy something while Bry and Allan were left at the car for a nap...we dropped by at starbucks located @ NLex Shell of Asia! then, i accompanied bry and heard mass, had dinnner with his family at Sm the Block...ready to sleep now..12:30am on my laptop -2-14-2011.
happy Heart's day..
Goodnight:)i had a wonderful day:D 
thank you LORD.

mrs?

i posted something on my wall & tagged allan and tess saying that i'll see them tom. After few minutes allan replied with.." see you soon to be MRS Cruz"..and then i went paranoid coz i haven't announce our engagement yet. I'm planning to advise my relatives after the ICON, once we have a final listing of the entourage..I remember what my officemate told me at the pantry last week,she says that i don't have to explain myself to anyone..so instead of saying a lot of stuff i just replied with the smiley "u". I'm not used to the MRS, of cors i'm not yet married..that's why allan said soon to be..:) but looking forward to be MRS. though:D

12th of May 2012

Almost final. this is it..so it's on May 12, 2012 :D
there are a lot of stuff to think about. a lot of suppliers to meet, a lot of things to consider.
I don't know if our budget will fit, bry and i must plan already, must agree on a certain budget!!
should i go to the Bridal fair? attending that event will surely ignite my senses to get all the best stuff, who wants to settle for the second best by the way? but, i think we can go there just to have an idea, just to check if packages are better that ala carte mode :P and who knows, there might be freebies!!

 I'll also take my friend-Tess' advise to check on the bridalworks website, i think that will help too in our preparation. i'm kinda excited and confused all at same time. If only i could invite everyone to our Big day- I will. If only money is not a problem- then i can have our dream wedding..

Is it too early to get panic? we still have almost a 1 years and 2 months to go..many things should be accomplished first.

.and Yes. 1st things 1st:      ..I'm declaring that i'm Engaged! and I'm Happy!!! :D
