Been So Tired Lately

I have been very slack lately, sleeping late to catch a television show because I have to write about it. This also means waking up late and missing breakfast altogether. Waking up late means I have to rush, rush, and rush more and I feel stressed. The heat is also a contributing factor to this slacking.

I have not run for a long time. I had lots of carbonated and sugared drinks during the day. I think the only healthy intake I have these days are the kefir in my fruits, brown rice and less fat meat. I miss having vegetables.

Do I need to read lipofuze reviews right now?

I think what I need is to better manage my time. Make a schedule of the priorities I need to do like house chores and avoid activities, mostly online, that make me lose track of time.

School year is starting in a few days time and I really hope to get back in the groove otherwise, I would not be able to wake up as early as 5am to cook lunch food for the children.

I got tired composing this so I think I need to tend to the family’s needs now.

Eye Tics

I have been getting eye tics lately. I don’t know if it’s because I have been overworking with the writing tasks I need to finish. These tasks do not just require writing because I need to watch something too for the topics I write about.

I used to think about getting under eye cream for dark circles but that seemed trivial compared to the eye tics I have been experiencing.

I think I need to boost the immune system more by taking in vitamin B complex. I also need to organize my time better so that I give ample time to what I need to accomplish and still have time to rest.

Wanted: Job Vacancy

In the uncertain times leading to the economic difficulties of a lot of the so-called first world countries, people have become more creative in being able to find jobs.

Some would even go through great lengths to move to the city of Philadelphia jobs offers. Yes, there are those who are willing to pack up and try their “luck” in other places as far as China.

Some put up their resumes online and hope for head hunters to find them.

Some people re-invent themselves and start all over again, doing an entirely different thing.

If this thing happens to you, how ready are you to face the challenges?

Starting Over

I chatted with a friend last week. I asked why he was online at odd times. He told me that he has been having temp jobs and that he is doing an IT job search at the moment.

One question led to another until I found out that he used to work with my brother-in-law a few months back. He even has a photo of them together. Talk about small world! Now my brother-in-law is in another IT company while he is in another country starting over.

A lot of IT professionals in this country are migrating to other more developed countries in search for the proverbial pot of gold. Some have it good while others do not find it.

Brain drain it is, as not only IT professionals who are leaving but teachers, doctors, nurses,engineers and other white collar workers too, in order to have a better and a more financially stable future for their families, even if they have to start over.

Office Paycheck

  1. Memo ::  uh-oh!
  2. Copy ::  paste
  3. Office ::  supplies
  4. Stapler ::  lost again
  5. Paycheck ::  woohoo!
  6. Watercooler ::  cold
  7. Desk ::  cluttered
  8. Human ::  Resources
  9. Resort ::  to the beach!
  10. Boss ::  impress him/her

These words reminded me of that very short time I sent working as an Admin/Human resource assistant. Paperwork was boring. The tedious task of knowing the computer codes to use was a bit too much for me since the ones we used then were the old chunky machines, so unlike the netbooks that people use these days.

If perhaps I have a chance to go to this line of work again, I’m not sure I will enjoy doing paperwork more than the challenges I deal with at my present work.

Morning Smog

One of the major causes of respiratory diseases or triggers of an allergy/asthma attack is air pollution. Ugh. It is a bad condition when one sees how much those who are affected suffer.

Smog is very apparent here in Mega Manila that every time we travel to work in the morning, the steel buildings in the business district where our workplace is located are not seen clearly until one is very near them.

I’m not kidding, see the photo below:

Never mind the traffic, now that is another sad story.
