grow old with you

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad

Carry you around when your arthritis is bad

All I wanna do is grow old with you.

I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches

build you a fire if the furnace breaks

Oh it could be so nice, growin old with you.

I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold.

Need you, feed you,

I'll even let you hold the remote control.

So let me do the dishes in the kitchen sink

Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink.

Oh I could be the man to grow old with you.

I wanna grow old with you.

*sample post from blogger.after months of being a deprived blogger user, i finally figured out how to access it on the floor.*grin*

even angels have bad days

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

How could someone be so insensitive and so selfish? There are people who always wants to be on the limelight. good if they are making a name out of it but it does not and it is making other lives miserable. He is not the only person in this whole wide world. He doesn't take into consideration that we have a life, that I have a life and is also burdened by the uncertainties of life. aargh...He thinks that what he do in his life is for him alone. He doesn't even think that there are other people connected to him and is affected by every move that he makes. It happens sometimes that more than we think of ourselves, we think of him. More than we think of our own concerns,we think about his. He could be so selfish and yet I'm being selfless.I may be over reacting or I may have a stupid heart and a freakin brain but I believe I am entitled to feel this way.

*fyi:this someone is not romantically linked with me.



And as a bonus,I was almost hit by a wreckless driver yesterday. Or should I say I was hit by that freakin motorcycle.i stood along gorodo avenue waiting for the traffic light and then this guy popped up into the picture. It was the farthest thing a driver in his normal state of mind would do. Tarantado! He can't wait for his turn that�s why he made a short cut and just blew off my day. If we look at it on all angles,I wasn't at fault. Shucks!!! Nalatayan akong tiil and there goes my sandals in the air. I just found out that I have a feet of steel coz there were no traces of bruises or a swollen feet. My feet didn't even hurt. I can't afford to get hurt by that moron who drives the motorcycle. so cheap of me to die or to be hospitalized. I'll die sad if that happens. Shame on me. Headline would then be: USA KA BABAYE NALIGSAN SA MOTOR. eww! just the thought of it makes me puke. (Hahaha.)It made me think that just because someone wishes to die I was put into that situation. yup, someone wishes to die and had sent me a message yesterday. It's like i was there saving someone's life and yet I'm not so good that's why I'm still here. Alive and kicking ass!!

random thoughts ÜÜÜ

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

1.u can't force other people to like u.

2.the moment u start complaining, you'll always find a reason to complain about anything even the littlest things

3.when u stop complaining, everything seems beautiful and acceptable.


4.some people will just use you for their own happiness at their own convenience. they fail to see that as a person, you get hurt and you bleed.


5.unspoken need of some people is wanting to be on the safe side, never wanting to get hurt.


6.jokes are sometimes half-meant and some are full-meant. You know it�s delivered as a joke but u can�t deny the fact that it is making sense and it is true.


7.happiness doesn�t have to depend on other people. happiness should come from within.


8.not everyone can express what's on their mind and in their hearts.


9.silence doesn't always mean yes


10.it's important to listen. some people can�t seem to understand that they are no longer making sense and they forgot that other people exist. I love this line : God made two ears and one mouth because he wants us to listen twice as much as we talk.


11.u can't control other people's minds and lives.


12.think before you speak.


13.someone is meant to pull you down. And when this happens, it means you are on top of them.


14.accepting the truth is hard but it is the only way to move on.


15.some people will misinterpret what you do and what you say.

16. you may laugh hard but that doesn't mean you are happy.


17. if you cry, it doesn�t mean you are sad.


18. there are so many words left unspoken.


19.everything I own is borrowed.


20.if you are alone, it doesn�t mean you are lonely.


21.to stop this, I have to go home. ciao!!! ÜÜÜ

it is supposed to be my restday today but i am here in the office rendering OT due to hurricane wilma.and i was late,i was supposed to start at 8pm to 12am but i woke up at around 8pm and i ended up logging in at 1030pm and i logged out at 230am.it was a short shift and i only had 12 calls.my calls were complicated but it was manageable,no sup calls though.though the callers gets irate,i can't help but emphatize.i know it is hard for their part and i admit i'll also get irate if i were on their shoes.there's still a reason to be thankful for because the hurricane didn't hit the philippines.instead of feeling bad due to my OT,i decided to stop complaining and just finish what needs to be done.i'd rather go on OT in exchange for my morning sched.hehe...it was my supervisor who asked me to render OT for four hours and i can't say NO because i'm a spoiled agent(feel ko lang).my supervisor is an angel and i'm happy that i belong to his team.thanks jan!!!

for every woman

by nancy smith
Image hosted by Photobucket.com



For every woman who is tired of acting weak when she knows she is strong;
There is a man who is tired of appearing strong when he feels vulnerable.

For every woman who is tired of acting dumb;
There is a man who is burdened with the responsibility of �knowing everything�.

For every women who is tired of being called an �emotional female�;
There is a man who is denied the right to weep and be gentle.

For every woman who is called unfeminine when she competes;
There is a man for whom competition is the only way to prove he is masculine.

For every woman who is tired of being a sex object;
There is a man who must worry about his potency.

For every woman who feels �tied down� by her children;
There is a man who is denied the full pleasure of parenthood.

For every woman who is denied meaningful employment and equal pay;
There is a man who must bear the financial responsibility for another human being.

For every woman who was not taught the intricacies of an automobile;
There is a man who was not taught the satisfaction of cooking.

For every woman who takes a step towards her own liberation;
There is a man who finds that the way to freedom has been made a little easier.

to add icing on the cake

i met someone new last sunday.he happens to be a friend of my friend.my friend has been telling me about this guy so i decided to give it a try.we didnt plan it ahead of time that we'll meet up.he just texted me around 1pm and invited me.i was hesitant at first but since i don't have much to do that time and i was all alone at home,i decided to meet him.we met somewhere in ayala around 5pm.i was impressed because he arrived first.normally ,i would always be the one who'll wait.i must admit that i got nervous and i wanted to back out.but i told myself "there's no going back".he looked surprised when i came in because i approached him directly and said "hi...r u kim?" in a very confident way.it started and ended well.my rating? well,he passed.hehe.my heart wouldn't break if i wake up in the morning beside him considering his physical attributes.and i would love to stress it that he is grammatically correct.hehe...if i were to look at something deeper,he is someone who you'd consider making friends with.yes,FRIEND.because he is the type of person who is not ready for a commitment and someone who values his individuality.i think he just needs someone he can converse with and someone he can spend his day with when he feels alone.he is the type of person who is ready to listen(as in all ears),responsible and would make sure you enjoy his company.he is also a family oriented person.he speaks so much of his family and is proud of his parents and siblings.he knows how to deal with people and he has a sense of humor.well,i can't see myself with him in the long run but he can be a friend.



i'm rejoicing

happy...happy...
i'm just happy that i can now access yahoomail.yahoo!!!tnx to jhade(an officemate).you are a genius!haha...he finally figured out how to access it on the floor.good luck IT people..

panawagan sa IT people

yahoo!!!i'm not rejoicing when i said yahoo..i'm pissed off.this is all we got if we access yahoomail in the office.though we can access yahoomail in the pantry,it's still hard because there are a lot of employees and there are only 4 pc's available enough to cater the hundreds of employees here.aaargh...i hate it.we even tried different paths and different ways just to access it on the floor but IT installed this surf control.hello?it's just a matter of sending and receiving mails.i even saved all my work documents there like my canned documents,legal scripts and fax templates which is very helpful.what's the big deal with that?first you removed the U drive so we have to find a way to save our docs.and there's the ever trusted yahoo.what now?you blocked friendster,blogger,blogdrive,gmail and now it's yahoo.what's next?

greetings

Image hosted by Photobucket.com


a customer just greeted me today with a "have a f**k*ng day!" after he hung up.hahaha...damn caller!he got so pissed off because i didn't provide him with any info.and he even demanded to speak with a supervisor.

here's what happened:

me: thank you for calling _____.com.my name is shania.is there a reservation i can help you with today?

bill: owh,i wanna check on my itin.can you help me with that?

me: sure,let me help you with that sir.may i have your name?

bill: bill

me.thank you.for security purposes,may i have the email address associated with the account?

(then he goes irate)

bill: why are you asking me that?i don't know the email address.someone booked this for me.

me: ok.who booked this reservation?

bill: my daughter booked this for me.

me:may i have your daughter's name?

bill: do we have to go through all these things.

me: yes,bill.

bill: why don't you just tell me about my itinerary?

me: i'm sorry,i cannot disclose any info regarding the reservation if you cannot provide me with the correct email address.

bill: i told you i don't have the email address.

me: bill, you have to provide me the email address for security purposes.if you don't have the email addres,you can ask your daughter and you may call as back.

bill: then give me your supervisor.

me: that is not possible.

bill: i told you i need to speak with your supervisor because you won't help me.now, can i speak with your supervisor?

me: NO.you have to go through the first step.

bill:what?

me:you have to go through the first step.you have to pass security verification.

bill: what the h*ll is wrong with you?you're not of any help. may i have your name?

me:may name is shania and that is spelled as S-H-A-N-I-A.

bill: ok.i'm going to write a letter and i'm going to include your name.

me: ok.have a great day.

bill: have a f*ck*ng day!

so,there...it didnt ruin my day.right after that damn caller,my supervisor called for a meeting and we had a voice simulation.i got nervous because we did it invidually and then the other team members were asked to rate our performance.i'm glad i did it well.

the result:

"Hats off to you Tif!

You sure have a very pleasant voice on the phone.

You are a naturale voice talent if I may add. You speak with character.

However, as you already know, your voice can sometimes come up too strong to first time or educate customers.

It is a good thing that you command authority when you speak but it would be a lot better if you add a li'l spice of enthusiasm when you convey your messages to your customers.

A small talk is all that you need.

Thank you for giving your best all the time.

Your humility only shows how mature and strong you are as a person.

We hope to spend more time with the team doing this kind of things. "

---people were telling me i sound so "maldita" on the phone and so authoritative.i'm not making it hard for my callers but it's just the way i speak.my previous QA(quality assurance) analyst would always leave a comment which says: "don't be smug and condescending." awwwh....i try to sound nice the beast as i could.hahaha...NOT.i always try to sound nice the best as i could and i think it sometimes works because i get good reviews.all in the name of customer service.
