I choose you...JEJEMON!

Jejemons are everywhere and breeding. Like a local agency hiring mass of people to become one of them. From annoying text messages, online games  and almost all social networking sites. They even conquer the airwaves through radio stations.I'll be the last person on earth who have heard about this group of people until I received a forwarded text message.The exact content of the message is here. I then assigned myself to make a research on these people and here's what I got, and of course as a man of source  i'll be sharing it with you guys. Jejemons or not. 

Who are they?  

Why are they here? 

What's their purpose?

Basically anyone with a low tolerance in correct punctuation, syntax and grammar. Making all people viewing their txt messages raise their eyebrows out of annoyance.A jejemon can never be seen alone. He or she must be in a pack of his or her jejemon friends.The more jejemons the merrier for them and annoying to us.

You'll never miss a jejemon inside a computer shop.I know cause I'm doing this blog in a computer shop with a jejemon just behind me playing dota.Harmless people they can say but making conversation with them through text or social networking  would cause a lot of frustration and hair pulling.

This is the text message I received:

4 types of JEJEMONS:

Mild-e0w pu.mxTAh p0eh.

Moderate-e0w pf0w.nAh m1sZ pf0u 

qtah.MwAhxx!

Severe-30w Po3h! an0h p03h gWa U?

Terminal Jejemons-30w p0Eh.m3N4

You: You are a jejemon! Don't talk to me, you uneducated retard!

miszMaldiTahh111: T_T

I'm done.Enough of this already.

Keeping it up

It's been a while since my last post. There are so many things happened that got my feet stuck for the moment. But as they say time to pick yourself up and keep moving forward. I'm dusting off my mic now and I'm ready to voice out my thoughts. I mentioned on my previous post that I attended a seminar for three days followed by an exam so we can have our license as non-life insurance agent. I planned to take the exam the following day we finished the seminar. After the seminar we were given a certificate of completion. A token for our determination on becoming an agent.

I prepare for the exam that night. Reading through each manuals that was provided and the exams we took during our seminar. I literally woke up 2am for that and spent 4 hours reading and understanding the each subject. I was mentally ready for the exam and I blast off to Ayala exactly 6:30am. The exam will start at exactly 8am I make it in the building around 7:15am enough time for me to review.I re-read all the saved materials on my phone to prepare myself for the exam.I really hate it when someone tries to have a conversation with me and they see that it is crucial for both of us to just review since we are having an exam . Inspite of the serious look in my eyes as I google on my phone this incensitive guy approach me and started asking me stuffs.  Distracted by the conversation and I decided that yeah let's not review anymore and talk to each other instead. He being an old man, I give him the respect that he needed. I nodded on his every brag and empathize with his thoughts and feelings. We discuss about our previous job, what made us decide to be an agent, who are we voting for president, and what are your plans after you have your license. Questions that totally wasted my time.

A guy dressed in short sleeved barong walk by checking all the applicants requirements as its only 15mins before the exam starts.We then stop talking (finally!) and grab on our requirements.I then remember that I don't have a 1x1 picture yet, one of the requirements to bring before you can take the exam. What the f***! I was like ,"oh crap!" I have enough time yesterday to print out one but I forgot. I confronted him and state my situation.I told him that I can bring him the picture right after the exam and I point my finger down as I told him that there's a digiprint on the ground floor.He just told me like a recorder,"kelangan complete,kelangan complete." He declined my request. I even saw the digiprint stand with a "close" sign as if it's smiling back at me in a sarcastic way. I pull up a finger on it.

So I went home and pretend nothing happens. Pretend that I didn't woke up 2am in the morning to review. What a colossal waste of time.

The moral of the story is,"Opportunity is right there in front of you. You just got to have a 1x1 picture."

Thank you

This connotation gives me the exact reason as to why I'm going to post my top 10 things that I'm grateful for each day. This will help me think of positive results on every situation whether it's a benefit or a catastrophe. I'm sharing this to you hoping that you will do the same and will help you change your perspective in life. Easy said than done so here we go:

Eyes wide Open

It's been one week since I resigned as a call center agent and I have a bit of a problem in terms of adjusting my body clock. I still feel sleepy during daytime and having a hard time falling at sleep at night. Since the Seminar I currently attend shifts from 8am - 5pm, after we took or lunch I started acting like a zombie. Without my approval my eyes are getting heavy and took power nap on its own.Feeling disoriented with my dilemma, I came up with a list based on my experience of things you can do to stay sharp or simply just staying awake. I already tested and proven effective some of the few.Be inform that information provided in this particular blog came from my own point of view. On every tip there's an effectiveness rate ranging from 1-5 to help you choose which one will suit you better.


Here are few tips that I came up with:


1. Caffeinated drinks - Utilize your breaks by having one of these. It is indeed one of your primary weapon to fight drowsiness. Caffeinated drinks are primarily coffee, tea, soft drinks, and energy drinks.

Effectiveness : 4

2. Apples - We've been told that "An apple a day keeps the doctor away". But it also keeps you awake.It is said to be an alternative for caffeinated drinks for all you health buffs out there.

Effectiveness : 4

3. Walking - If your work requires you to sit the entire shift, It is beneficial for you to take a walk. It circulates your blood causing your body to be active and will stimulate parts of your brain. Don't over do it though for it will also tire you and probably end up on the floor sleeping. You will also be reprimanded for loitering.

Effectiveness : 4

4. Stretching - There's a wrong way of doing this and may result to a more sleepy you. Be mindful not to do stretching while yawning. By doing so, you relax your muscles and prepare your body to sleep whereas by stretching you contract your muscles preparing your body to do work.It reasons out the fact that we do stretching before we workout.

Effectiveness : 3

5. Power Nap - An average person must sleep in full 6 hours a day. If you only sleep for 4 hours before your shift and you still feel tired later on, that's because you lack 2 hours of sleep. In this situation you can charge yourself by doing the power nap. Take a 2 minute nap from time to time.While doing this do the praying hand position. So if ever you were caught just do the sign of the cross to pretend that your praying not sleeping.

Effectiveness : 3.5

6. Dream on - This is proven to be the most effective tip on how to stay awake.Sacrifice your lunchtime by hitting the sleeping quarters or simply sleeping on your desk/stations for an hour. You can get out of hunger with skyflakes or drinking water. You can also manage your lunch break let's say 30mins on sleeping 15mins on quick lunch and 15mins on siesta.Dream on buddy.

Effectiveness : 5

7. Smoking - I don't really advice smoking since I don't smoke, but for the benefit of others who does this then here you go. It is an alternative for caffeinated drinks and if you do both chances are you can survive your shift with ease. Also includes the risk of palpitation and lung cancer which you already knew and still ignores it.

Effectiveness : 4.5

8. Talking to someone - It really depends on how you talk and how much attention you will give to the conversation. If your talking to a customer over the phone and you feel sleepy, I suggest that you came up with a conversation that will interest you and your customer. Questions that still involves the line of business you are in.If you're having a problem making rapport to customers simply talk to your colleagues. The effectiveness on this depends on the conversation you are having. If it's a boring conversation then there's a risk for you to fall asleep.Have a funny even senseless conversation with each other.

Effectiveness : 4.5 can be 0

9. Count Backwards - You start from 100 - 0 in multiples of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 do this to keep your brain busy. The traditional way of counting consists of continually increasing a (mental or spoken) counter by a unit for every element of the set. You just do it in reverse this time.Can also lead to drowsiness depends on your motivation.

Effectiveness : 3.5

10. Think Happy Thoughts - If you find tip no.9 difficult you can do this. Think of your dreams (think not sleep and dream). Maybe think of ways to prevent malnutrition, traffic, drugs.You can also think of any hypothetical questions or what ifs. Discuss it with friends and have fun.

Effectiveness : 4

Enjoy!

Gudmorning Ate Nilda

Was there a day wherein you find yourself waking up smiling and the sun smiles back at you . You absorb all the positive energy and you start thinking happy thoughts then suddenly shit happens.For real.

This happens to me yesterday as I prepare to go to a seminar held in Ayala I ask Ate Nilda,our son's yaya to buy breakfast for the two of us since the rest of the household were still sleeping.I'm thinking of something nutritious and will keep me sharp the whole day as I needed it. I then ask for goto.She then came back and prepare the conggee for me in a hurry.I then ask her,''eh,ano binili mo para sayo?'' she then replied with,''mamaya na at ako'y taeng tae na!''. As she entered the toilet I couldn't help but to imagine all the decayed food and all the disgusting organisms that will be withdrawn to our toilet bowl from this horrifying creature.She have no idea what's my take on that.I don't know what's with the nurses and doctors have on their stomach as they don't feel nauseous everytime they crack a fresh body open or even wipe someone's ass .I have high respect for those people in medical field . Going back, As much as I wanted to grab a spoon and slurp away the conggee I spent literally 5mins attempting to vomit and tears have fallen from my eyes. She then came out from our c.r. like nothing happened as if she didn't spoil my appetite. I admire her audacity.

To cut the story short I didn't eat my breakfast and leave the house feeling malnourished and somehow abused.

Gudmorning!

Welcome to the Jungle!

As I start my blog entry, I wanted to share with you basically what happened to me everyday as a normal citizen. There's nothing much interesting about me so I'll just blurt out to you my experience as I muscle my way on this concrete jungle. . So help me God.

I just recently I resigned on my previous employer as a call center agent due to some internal issues/offense that accumulate during my 1 year and 3 months stay. Offense that i choose not to disclose for now for it will put against my record but with my guts,I might though on my following blog.I was advised by my Superior to resign for they will kindly terminate me instead. Harsh, for an employee who is striving to keep his job to provide for his family not to mention my two pet rabbits . With patience and probably 100 times of goosefraba chant (From the movie " Anger Management") I then manage to swallow the ball of anger and pride and look into things in a constructive way. In spite of the situation, I convince myself that there might be another pasture waiting for me to lay my head on.I have a dream and was worried on how am I able to materialize it.I open myself on other things than entering another call center company.It's not that I don't like it anymore, I just knew that there is something more for me.Somewhere out there probably just waiting. So then my journey begins.

And then again, Welcome to the Jungle baby.
