I am so pissed off with the person who got my mobile phone. I inadvertentlyleft my mobile phone in our office femalejohn because I have rush call from our client. So for a while I forgot about it then after the call I remember that my mobile was not with me anymore. I am so angry because she is my officemate so she should have been considerate what a great loss to loose an important gadget now a days. It was my only communication to my family here and abroad.

I hate getting sick because cannot concentrate in my work. It is really hassle when you get sick and you will spread the virus. I feel so bad and so sick.

I am transfering to my new home next week. A condo unit that my mom help me acquire and I am so excited to move in. Although it is bare and no division I am still excited. I bought so many magazines of home design to mix everything that I like to design my new humble abode. Since my parents' separation 3 years ago, I went on leaving on my own. Although I leave in our original home I am almost home alone. My mother now resides in our new family home inoutskirts of the city where I live in (2 hours away). My sister is studying abroad somewhere in Asia. My father lives - oh I don't know and my brother resides in USA. So we are all physicaly separated. Some kind of a family right. But I don't care anymore. You just have to face the facts rather than being depress. I'd rather make most of my life than feel miserable.

I hope I can acquire 180,000 pesos for my house to be divided and canfill furnitures. I plan to make everything customise - from lockers, to bed, chairs, etc and have it prepared by some furniture enterprise. It is much cheaper than buying in home store.

I am so excited....... I will show some pictures whenit is complete.

I got sick again. For the last week I easily succumb to any illness. I usually sustain strength even I stay up till afternoon during my previous years. But this period it is really different – too much heat; noise of children running enjoying summer sun. Fortunately our odd schedule will end in 16 days. My shift will change to 6 am – 3 pm. Finally, I will be able to enjoy malls, my friends and watch missed TV programs. I am also proud to say that I am transferring to my new home. I bought it with the help of my mother.

Back to my being sick, I revisit my favorite books mostly written by John Grisham then re-watched Criminal Minds. Funny because when I first watch the CM, I really do not like it that much. But amongst the TV program I downloaded, CM is the most re-watched. Not because of Reid anymore but the way of profiling. I started to read books that somehow relates to profiling. I am using my unsub out my circle of friends, acquaintance or officemates and I so happy about it. The difference my unsub is good not a bad person. I just hope CM will have third season. I miss them very much.

The book I read when I was bedridden was The Chamber. It's about a Black-Jew hater Sam Cayhall and how his grandson, Adam Cayhall, who badly wants to save him. However, as it progress he wants to run and leave everything behind. But he already opened the Pandora's box. There is no turning back but the best thing to do is confront everything and live up to it. I have the hard time locating this book together with Rainmaker. There were no available copies anymore in our country for quite some time.

I feel like an alien in my office after I have been out of office because of my illness. I acquire an infection and so I have so many lymph nodes around my neck. My body ache too from too much coughing. My head is also hurting. During my rest time (I actually did not rest) I watched again the Criminal Mind and loving each of the character. My opinion about the show being copycat is slowly shifting to being original because the longer you watch them the more you learn profiling a person. I am actually like profiling any person that passby me. It feels so good. I am also loading my mind with different books and not just limiting to my personal favorites. I am enjoying dumping information in my mind and I hope it will notfold upfor too much information. I am falling in love of the TV program because I learn a lot. I do not have to have advance forensic tools just my mind. I know I will not be fair I like the team with Emily with them rather than Elle. It feel so complete with Emily around. To all Elle fans please do not get angry with me. It is just my opinion.

I got sick yesterday so I was not able to report for duty. I finished two books whilein bed,"Chinese Cinderalla" by Adeline Yen Mah and "Everyone worth Knowing" by Lauren Weisberger. I had fun reading these two books. One is True to life story of Adeline Yen Mah and a fiction story of a girl suddenly entering realms of New York's Chic, Party-hopping elite. Both books touch and let me reevaluate my life. With Adeline story I learned that no matter no one believes you if you believe in yourself you will get it. With Lauren Weisberger, you have to be careful who your friends.

I've been writing down new words I learn everyday. It looks like English can be easily learned but as the saying goes 'it is better said than done'. Apparently, I am already 27 years old, not a native American, but English has been in our educational system for 100 years. I have complete line of books authored by John Grisham, Robert Ludlum, Mitch Albom, etc. So I still cannot believe that I do not have firm graps of the language. It is really hard when you do not practice everyday. I started using English when I got into my current work. It is a multinational firm with various offices in the world's 4 biggest regions. Just like I previously posted in my blog entries I am happy because of the support that my office gives me.

I joined the group to practice my written communication. I love to watch TV programs especially the program that so informative and almost real such as Numb3rs, House, CSI (and its spin off CSI:NY). Because these programs uses scriptlines with intellect. Uses correct grammar and terms that we can alternately use.

I hope to perfect my written communication (and maybe verbal too). I do not know how to have friends in this site but I hope I could find someone who I can exchange with written thoughts.

 

 

I felt a relief that my contribution got accepted. I am a Filipino trying to learn English written and verbal. I need it because in my line of work and almost all business establishments here in Manila use English as medium of Language. I prefer to perfect my written skills because I usually just want to write what I am feeling. In writing you could always take back what you want to say. You could just click Ctrl Z to undo everything if you do not like what you have written and our clients are virtual, I don't get to see them vice versa. Unlike verbal you cannot take back what you have said and usually ends in a catastrophe because of just one single word that you have blurted out. However, I usually write in my native language and even use my own dialect that only I can understand. It's like a secret code to me. So whenever I loose my things I do not worry too much that someone might discover my darkest secrets, thoughts and feelings. As I said before I really do not know how to handle rejection. However, I would like to feel it sometime so in future I could handle it with poise and maturity.   

I wasn't expecting overwhelming support to my post about Warrick and Catherine. I only check it right this moment and there is a long post thread. I did not try to see how did it go for the past days because I am really afraid of rejection. I really do not know why I can't take rejection. But someone says to me, rejection is like a door. But apparently even though I got the meaning I cannot submit myself to its meaning. But I should because without submitting myself to it how could I learn the true meaning of life.

I am lucky that my office understands that I have problems regarding my English communication written and verbal. They also help provide materials for further practice.  For the past days I have been corresponding to our clients, luckily they are not into grammar as long as they got their message through vice versa. I am happy that somehow my correspondence improves through the strict guidance of my supervisor as part of my evaluation. I am laughing out loud why do I love and easily understand stories in written form or through TV programs and movies in English but I am not that good in English. Maybe because I am fond of just scanning and scheming; Never trying to read between the lines or try to discern what's more to that words or phrases. Scanning and scheming is good once you are done thoroughly reading a material or watching a movie or TV program for reviewing purposes and not for one time only. I will have a timeline by the end of the year. I will then take TOIEC and TOEFL for testing and what I learned.
