    <lj:music>Love in December by Club 8</lj:music>
    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;Hello darlings! &lt;img alt="" src="http://images.multiply.com/common/smiles/love.png" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today I had lunch with&amp;nbsp;my top boss at the HR -&amp;nbsp;the Area Director of Human Resources (Philippines) Ms. Merce Santos, also with the Senior Training Manager Sr. Martin (who reminds me so much of Peter Belmi, &lt;em&gt;tumitili&lt;/em&gt; siya pag nasstress and he refers to things he forgot as churvaness, ahaha!) and the HR Manager in-charge of Recruitment of the soon-to-be opened Shangri-la Boracay, Ms. Myles. It was my first time to eat at Circles, but of course I saw the place beforehand because of the hotel tour. I was really scared to go off and get food, ahaha, I was so shy. But super hungry na so I quickly got over that feeling. Especially when I saw the selections over at the western buffet, &lt;strong&gt;w-o-w&lt;/strong&gt;. So in the end, I was able to eat the following: Chicken parmegiana(?) with pasta, shrimp and salmon paella, carbonara, california pizza, hakaw, siomai, roast beef with peppercorn gravy sauce, white onion soup with melted cheese (I forgot na the rest, there were too many it was so hard not to taste them all..for dessert: flourless chocolate cake (I hear this is one of their best desserts), choco-mocca flan, creme brulee(?), turkish delights, turkish powder cookies, frosted cream puff, strawberry cookies plus a tall glass of manggo shake. Then I vomited after.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Joke. But grabe. Buti nalang they were eating a lot too, but mas marami pa rin ako at si Ms. Miah, my co-new hiree. heehee. I was so poised even though I had soo many to eat, because the Executive Committee heads were just beside our table, and Ms. Merce kept on introducing us as her new "anak". They were even talking about an upcoming HR bonding, and Sr. Martin suggested that we party and bond &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;on a yacht&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. kamusta naman. Akala ko they will laugh but no. Ms. Merce said, "pwede, I'll see if I can get us one. where would you like ba?" Oh my golly man. Napangiti nalang kami ni Ms. Miah. ahaha. They also talked about the anniversary of the hotel (15years na). All those who have been with the company will get a Technomarine watch of their choice. blank stare. Yan ang mukha ko non. ahaha.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was hard to keep sitting straight and act all professional when I can't breathe na kasi I was so full! Then we got the bill, Ms. Merce just signed the receipt and we were off to the secret entrance to the employee's lift. I heard pala na Christina Aguilera's checking in with us soon, occupying the whole 27th floor, with Christina staying at the very luxurious Presidential suite. I believe it costs 30k a night or more, not sure. I hope we'll have a chance to get a photo with her. Not a fan, but why not ahaha. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh well, that's it for now, it may seem like I'm having all fun at work but this is just in my first week. I realized that with benefits and perks like these, my work will&amp;nbsp;really entail a lot of OT's and missed lunch breaks. &lt;em&gt;Ang daming trabaho.&lt;/em&gt; bow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am blessed to have this job. I do pray for the strength to do it well and not lose my soul in the process. (ahahaah Mikey!)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Goodluck to Inna and Jp with their interview at Shang tomorrow. (I did my part na! You guys do well. Heehee)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh oh! My message alert tone is the sound of Transformers transforming. Ahihihi. Yun lang. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To all who read this entry, God bless, don't text while crossing the street (oops I do this), be safe and don't forget to pray.&amp;nbsp;&amp;lt;3&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;I just came from Ateneo to pick up my recommendation letters and to talk with some of my professors. I couldn't help feeling sentimental while walking around the school. A lot has been changed around the campus: Schmitt(?) hall has been re-painted (haha), there are fewer stalls in the cafeteria (Beef Teriyaki's closed due to a "stray" moth ball found mixed with the juice), there's a covered walkway na to sec bldg., etc..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've been missing Ateneo so much lately, even more now because of my new job ahead. So I looked really silly walking around, taking photos of the new things I found. This school will always be a part of me, and I'll definitely remember my time spent here as one of the best days of my life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's Leong Hall. I hear they've added AB Chinese Studies to the courses. (not sure if we had that one na before)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img height="720" alt="" width="600" src="http://img377.imageshack.us/img377/8705/image006xw2.jpg" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the new covered walkway to sec.

"By my presence?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Again his mobile features transformed, his expression became soft, warm. He didn't answer at first;&lt;br /&gt;he simply bent his face to mine, and brushed his lips slowly along my jaw, from my ear to my chin,&lt;br /&gt;back and forth. I trembled.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Regardless," he finally murmured, "I have better reflexes."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;Vampires are so damn seductive. haha. &amp;lt;3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back to reading. 2 days to go and I will be legal everywhere. Haha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;imisssinging.&lt;br /&gt;</content>

I have this need to find and get the songs I&amp;nbsp;liked in movies, TV ads, radio etc. So with that, do you guys know that song they play&amp;nbsp;on the background of that new One tree Hill commercial on ETC, the one where they preview the scenes from the new season. The song with the words&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;you're the&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;only thing I wanted , only thing I wanted &lt;/em&gt;played towards the end.

Heehee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, I was&amp;nbsp;a bit disturbed today.

    <content type="html">&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;..that I finally found that song played in the background of the Nokia L'amour Collection Ad, where a woman and a man paint flowers on the wall. After months of searching, DJ Sayem finally released the full length version of it. Though I think it's only available on Itunes for now, that's where I bought it. (.99 cents..thank God for unlimited free credits wee) Anyway, it's entitled &lt;strong&gt;World of Flowers by DJ Sayem&lt;/strong&gt;. Wee new song!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am currently loving the following songs:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This Moment is You by Matt Wertz&lt;br /&gt;Over You by Heather Waugh&lt;br /&gt;The Goodbye Song by Abandoned Pools&lt;br /&gt;The Remedy by Abandoned Pools&lt;br /&gt;Start Over by Abandoned Pools&lt;br /&gt;What Sarah Said by Death Cab for Cutie&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Go have a listen!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great summer everyone!

    <content type="html">&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&amp;nbsp;It's worth reading, trust me. I love this guy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;352nd Harvard Commencement&lt;br /&gt;Thursday, June 5, 2003&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Class Day speech&lt;br /&gt;June 4, 2003&lt;br /&gt;Will Ferrell&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not the Worcester, Mass Boat Show, is it? I am sorry. I have made a terrible mistake. Ever since I left "Saturday Night Live," I mostly do public speaking now. And I must have made an error in the little Palm Pilot. Boy. Don't worry. I got it on me. I got the speech on me. Let's see. Ah, yes. Here we go. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You know, when Bill Gates first called me to speak to you today, I was honored. But when he wanted me to be one of the Roxbury guys, I -- Sorry, that's Microsoft. I'm sorry about that. Star Trek Convention. No. NRA. NAACP. Dow Chemical. No. But that is a good one. That is a good speech. The University of Michigan Law. Johns Hopkins Medical School. I'm sorry. Are you sure this is not the boat show? No, I have it. I do have it on me. I do. It's here. Thank you. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ladies and Gentlemen, Distinguished Faculty, Administrators, Friends and Family and, of course, the graduating Class of 2003, I wish to say hello and thank you for bestowing this honor upon me as your Class Day speaker. After months of secret negotiations, several hundred secret ballots, and a weekend retreat with Vice President Dick Cheney in his secret mountain bunker, a Class Day speaker was chosen, and it was me. You obviously have made a grave error. But it's too late now. So let's just go with it. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today's speech is going to be a little different, a little unorthodox. Some of you may find it to be shocking. I'm not going to stand up here and try to be funny. Because even though I am a professional comedian of the highest caliber, I've decided to do one thing that a lot of people are probably afraid to do, and that's give it to you straight. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As most of you are probably aware, I didn't graduate from Harvard. In fact, I never even got a call back from Admissions. Damn you, Harvard! Damn you! I told myself I would not get emotional today. But damn it, I'm here, and sometimes it's just good to cry. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm not one of you. Okay? I can't relate to who you are and what you've been through. I graduated from the University of Life. All right? I received a degree from the School of Hard Knocks. And our colors were black and blue, baby. I had office hours with the Dean of Bloody Noses. All right? I borrowed my class notes from Professor Knuckle Sandwich and his Teaching Assistant, Ms. Fat Lip Thon Nyun. That's the kind of school I went to for real, okay? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So my gift to you, Class of 2003, is to tell you about the real world through my eyes, through my experiences. And I'm sorry, but I refuse to sugarcoat it. I ain't gonna do it. And I probably shouldn't use the word "ain't" during this day in which we celebrate education. But that's just the way I play it, Homes. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Graduates, if you will indulge me for a moment, let me paint a picture of what it's like out there. The last four or, for some of you, five years you've been living in a fantasyland, running around, talking about Hemingway, or Clancy, or, I don't know, I mean whatever you read here at Harvard. The Novelization of the Matrix, I don't know. I don't know what you do here. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But I do know this. You're about to enter into a world filled with hypocrisy and doublespeak, a world in which your limo to the airport is often a half-hour late. In addition to not even being a limo at all; often times it's a Lincoln Towncar. You're about to enter a world where you ask your new assistant, Jamie, to bring you a tall, non-fat latte. And he comes back with a short soy cappuccino. Guess what, Jamie? You're fired. Not too hard to get right, my friend. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A world where your acting coach, Bob Leslie-Duncan -- yes, the Bob Leslie-Duncan -- tells you time and time again that you will never, ever be considered as a dramatic actor because you don't play things real, and are too over the top. Amazing! Simply amazing! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm sorry, graduates. But this is a world where you aren't allowed to use your cell phone in airplanes, during live theater, at the movies, at funerals, or even during your own elective surgery. Apparently, the Berlin Wall went back up because we now live in Russia. I mean just try lighting up a cigar in a movie theater or paying for a dinner for 20 friends with an autograph. It ain't that easy. Strong words, I know. Tough talk. But more like tough love. Because this is where my faith in you guys comes into play, Harvard University's graduating Class of 2003, without a doubt, the finest, most talented group of sexual beings this great land has to offer. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now I know I blew some of your minds with my depiction of what it's really like out there. But if anyone can handle the ups and downs of this crazy blue marble we call Planet Earth, it's you guys. As I stare out into this vast sea of shining faces, I see the best and brightest. Some of you will be captains of industry and business. Others of you will go on to great careers in medicine, law and public service. Four of you -- and I'm not at liberty to say which four -- will go on to magnificent careers in the porno industry. I'm not trying to be funny. That's just a statistical fact. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of you, specifically John Lee, will spend most of your time just hanging out in your car eating nachos. You will all come back from time to time to this beautiful campus for reunions, and ask the question, "Does anyone ever know what happened to John Lee?" At that point, he will invariably pop out from the bushes and yell, "Nachos anyone?!" At first, it will scare the crap out of you. But then you'll share a laugh with your classmates and ultimately look forward to John jumping out of the bushes as a yearly event. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'd like to change gears here, if I could. Talk a little bit about "Saturday Night Live." Now, during my 18-year stint on the show, I had the chance to play or impersonate some very interesting people, none more interesting than our current President, Mr. George W. Bush. Now in some cases, you actually have contact with some of the people you play. As a byproduct of this former situation, the President and myself have become quite good friends. In fact, I might even call him a father figure of sorts, granted a dim-witted father figure who likes to take a lot of naps and start wars, but a father figure nonetheless. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When I told the President that I'd be speaking here today, he wondered if I would express some sentiments to you. And I said I'd do my best. So, if you don't mind, I'd like to read this message from the President of the United States. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Students, Faculty, Families and Distinguished Guests, I just want to take time to congratulate you on your outstanding achievement as graduates of the Class of 2002. The great thing about being the Class of 2002 is that you can always remember what year you graduated because 2002 is a palindrome which, of course, is a word or number that is the same read backwards or forwards. I'll bet you're surprised I know that word, but I do. So you can suck on it. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Make no mistake, Harvard University is one of the finest in the land. And its graduates are that fine as well. You're young men and women whose exuberance exude a confident confidence of a bygone era. I believe it was Shakespeare who said it best when he said, "Look yonder into the darkness for knowledge onto which I say go onto that which thou possess into thy night for thee have come with only a single sword and vanquished thee into darkness." &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm going to be honest with you, I just made that up. But I don't know how to delete it from the computer. Tomorrow's graduation day speaker is former President of Mexico Ernesto Zedillo. Ernie's a good man, a deeply religious man, and one of the original members of the Latino boy band Menudo. So listen up to Ernie. He was at the beginning of the whole boy band explosion. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As you set off into the world, don't be afraid to question your leaders. But don't ask too many questions at one time or that are too hard because your leaders get tired and/or cranky. All of you sitting here have the brightest of futures ahead. Many of you will go on to stellar careers and various pursuits. And four of you -- and I'm not at liberty to say which four -- will go on to star in the porno industry. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the challenges you will be faced with is finding a job in our depressed economy. In fact, the chances of landing a decent job are about as good as finding weapons of mass destruction in the Iraqi desert. Slim and none. And Slim just left the building. In fact, the closest thing I found to looking like a weapon of mass destruction is the turd that Dick Cheney left in the Oval Office toilet about an hour ago. Man, that thing is a WMD if I've ever seen one. On that note, God bless and happy graduation. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You know, I sincerely hope you enjoy this next chapter of your life because it's really going to be great, as long as you pay your taxes. And don't just take a year off because you think Uncle Sam is snoozing at the wheel because he will descend upon you like a hawk from hell. Let's just put it this way. After some past indiscretions with the IRS, my take-home pay last year was $9,000. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I figured I'd leave you today with a song, if you will. So, Jeff, if you could come up here. Jeff Heck, everyone. Please welcome one of your fellow graduates. Jeff is, of course, from Eliot House. You know what you guys? You guys at Eliot House, give yourselves a nice round of applause because you had the head lice scare this year, and it shut you down for most of last semester. But you didn't mind the tents they set up for you, and you were just troopers. You really were. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway, here's a song that I think really captures the essence of the Harvard experience. It goes a little like this. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;[SINGING]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone,&lt;br /&gt;All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity.&lt;br /&gt;Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.&lt;br /&gt;Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea,&lt;br /&gt;All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see.&lt;br /&gt;Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Okay, you know what? I'm just realizing that this is a terrible graduation song. Once again, I'm sorry. This is the first time I've actually listened to the lyrics. Man, it's a downer. It's bleak. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Boy, I want to finish this. Just give me a minute, and let me figure out how to fix this thing. Okay. I think I got it. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;[SINGING]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Now don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the Harvard alumni endowment fund.&lt;br /&gt;It adds up, has performed at 22 percent growth over the last six years.&lt;br /&gt;Dust in the wind, you're so much more than dust in the wind.&lt;br /&gt;Dust in the wind, you're shiny little very smart pieces of dust in the wind.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thank you. Good luck. And have a great day tomorrow.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss the beach. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content>

For my Comm friends and anyone who's interested, they're (J&amp;amp;J)&amp;nbsp;looking for the following:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sales and Marketing Asst.&lt;br /&gt;Promo and Merchandizing Asst.&lt;br /&gt;Research and Dev't Proj.

Hehe.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going to all these interviews make me realize that you really can't be too picky about the jobs available. I just pray, pray and pray to Him and hope that in the end, I get a stable job that'll lead to better opportunites in the future.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I miss..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.my Mom&lt;br /&gt;.Yaan&lt;br /&gt;.Mga Ga's&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;.Expe&lt;br /&gt;.Trio (Inna, are you still alive? hahaha)&lt;br /&gt;.Ateneo mornings.&lt;br /&gt;.school&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am blessed. &amp;lt;3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content>

    <lj:music>Skyline Drive by Mae</lj:music>
    <content type="html">&lt;br /&gt;Hi everyone.&amp;nbsp;Hi Yaan, hope you're having fun and not embarrassing yourself&amp;nbsp;during your Asian trip. Haha! Anyway,&amp;nbsp;I have been to 2 job interviews so far, one from Globe Telecom and another for an international company in Libis called&amp;nbsp;24/7 intl.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;Globe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The position is Corporate Showroom Associate.&amp;nbsp;The globe office in&amp;nbsp;Makati just&amp;nbsp;had thier own showroom put up and is looking for someone to facilitate events etc. held in that new place. Aside from this, the one hired will be part of a training program which will expose you to the different segments of Innove (a subsidiary of Globe). The person will basically be part of all departments at one point, and at&amp;nbsp;the end of 3months, he/she will be assigned to the department he/she is interested in.&amp;nbsp;During my interview (I had 2 interviews, one was the initial then I was reffered to their boss right away),&amp;nbsp;the chief administrative officer explained to me their benefits (aside from the HMO package that you can convert to cash or whatever you require, they had 14-15th month pay once they reach a&amp;nbsp;certain target for the company) and also told me flat out that if I want a high paying job, then I should go and work for a call center. The pay is between 12-14k, but she told me that there is a&amp;nbsp;good career path. The only flaw that i saw is that this job is an interim&amp;nbsp;position, meaning you're&amp;nbsp;technically contractual in the sense that&amp;nbsp;if&amp;nbsp;you want to transfer careers within the company (You're can't move anywhere managing a showroom), you have to apply within the company to the departments that&amp;nbsp;have openings. So anyway, given that it was in&amp;nbsp;Makati and the job's pretty much not to my liking, I decided&amp;nbsp;not to pursue it anymore. But if you guys&amp;nbsp;are interested, they are looking for a batch of 10 fresh graduates for this training program. Just call Globe HR and I'm sure you can inquire about it. I&amp;nbsp;wish I could give you details but I was just called by their HR, and&amp;nbsp;wasn't able to ask how they&amp;nbsp;got my resume in the first place.&amp;nbsp;It's a bit weird to, when you think about it. Hehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;247 international&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This I like. This IT&amp;nbsp;company is Singapore-based, which has BPO&amp;nbsp;in&amp;nbsp;the Philippines.&amp;nbsp;It's in Libis, has no dresscode and they don't even monitor leaves! The very young (haha!) General Manager is an Ateneo Alumni, MIS batch 99. And the best&amp;nbsp;part of it all, the pay's between 20-25k.&amp;nbsp;No I am not joking. But as&amp;nbsp;Sir Gami said (my&amp;nbsp;Summit boss), if the compensation's big, then the workload's probably big as well. And judging from&amp;nbsp;my 1hr&amp;nbsp;interview, yes I do believe that this&amp;nbsp;job's&amp;nbsp;very challenging.&amp;nbsp;Sir Joseph (my other OJT boss in Summit)&amp;nbsp;endorsed me to this company. (Thanks sir!)&amp;nbsp;See, the company never had an HR for 7 years. I even said that it's quite impossible that they do not have an HR. But he said that all of them, even the General Manager, do their own HR work. They are the ones who call recruitment agencies, book events and even gather employee requirements. But that&amp;nbsp;was when they were only 12 in the company. Now that they plan to grow fast, they are in need of a stable HR system within their company.&amp;nbsp;He even said that they&amp;nbsp;didn't&amp;nbsp;want to hire someone old. Haha! So they're looking to hire a fresh grad who's willing to learn and&amp;nbsp;can provide the company with new ideas. The position is HR Officer, which will eventually move up to being the HR Manager once systems are already in place. What I like about the company is that they aren't tied to their job titles. The office is very open and they&amp;nbsp;don't even address each other as"Sir" or "ma'am". (That's why he would&amp;nbsp;laugh a bit when I call him sir, sanay na eh haha) He said that he&amp;nbsp;was interested to interview me&amp;nbsp;because I have had background in Recruitment and selection during my OJT days. I&amp;nbsp;do wish I get this one, but&amp;nbsp;if I don't,&amp;nbsp;it's okay. Lucky naman diba to get a&amp;nbsp;high paying job on the second interview right?&amp;nbsp;I just leave it up to God. I'm just thankful that I get opportunities like these.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;J&amp;amp;J&amp;nbsp;Philippines&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;They called me this morning, I have an interview with them on Friday. Wish me luck! The position is for HR Administrative Assistant. I just found out that the j&amp;amp;j office is located in Paranaque. Lalala. Bahala na si God. =)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well that's 3 interviews so far, I do pray for more opportunities. My sister's making me apply to hotels like Makati Shang etc. They base pay is no comparison to the service charge they add to it. So kahit HR dun they earn 28k raw kasi the service charge di bababa ng 18k. We'll see, I have yet to find an email add. hehe.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Good luck to my fellow batchmates in their job hunting! And for those who're studying again soon, well, ha ha! Joke. Buti pa kayo may allowance pa..=P To all my Ga's who are abroad (Annika and Chee!),&amp;nbsp;take care and pasalubong!! haha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am currently loving..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;.Hiwaga by Up Dharma Down&lt;br /&gt;.Lack of Color by Death cab for Cutie&lt;br /&gt;.Hello Panda &lt;br /&gt;.Daydreaming (coz there's nothing better to do..)&lt;br /&gt;.Sleeping&lt;br /&gt;.eating cereal during midnight&lt;br /&gt;.being bored with Jomel and Mikes&lt;br /&gt;.hearing "I am a Barbarian!" hahahaha&lt;br /&gt;.my new printed tee's&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;.not spending my money on school clothes (no more school Junee! work clothes naman!)&lt;br /&gt;.saying boo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope everyone is well. &amp;lt;3&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content>
