And there goes the Recognition

This is not to brag nor to insinuate something, but to say all the things that my surprised being forgot to mention earlier. I know this is not necessary; if you think this will make you react negatively, I suggest you stop reading.

It never crossed my mind that my name will be called as the Recruiter of the Month for December. It's technically my first recognition ever, and the surprise of hearing my name without expecting anything made it sweeter.

Of course its because of His grace that I was able to deliver more than what's expected; with that, I am thankful. But I want to take this opportunity to thank the people who are more deserving for this credit (yes naman parang awards night lang hehe).

I would stick to my claim that work load, work environment, and the immediate supervisor are the three main reasons to make or break you at work; yourself is already a given. I have proven it once again; I was right when I said that three months ago after bagging the Team of the Quarter award.

This recognition is a victory of John and Kamille-the supervisor and the partner. I am the product of their combined generosity and patience to mold me. If not for John's trust and dedication to objectively help me and Kamille's undying support and push, I would'nt reach this. I am happy not because I was recognized, but because I was able to give them an affirmation of a job well done. They did a great job. I know naman that it's also because of me and my abilities; I just want to honor their efforts in making me get this.

I'd say I'm proud of myself for getting this, knowing that recruitment is something I have never done in the past. And again, if not for those people behind, the award will never be mine.

It might be a very petty and maarte thing for some. I cannot and will not blame them. Why would I? They are not naman the lucky ones who have a great boss and suppportive partner or maybe, it is really unfortunate for them not

to have John and Kamille.

You may think I am overreacting and tell me, ' hindi yan promotion uy!' but I don't care. This is for John and Kamille. The congratulatory is all for the both of them I will just commend myself next time, this first one is for them and I am positive there will be more to come :))

Thank you team two. Thank you miss mel. Thank you John. Thank you Partner. I am thanking you guys with all sincerity.

All these and more is an overall win for my former boss, Jojo. His words and abilities are also the foundation of who I am today. With that, I am also honoring you in this award. More than any award and recognition, I know that the best proof of being a good leader is bringing his people on top with no negativity on the sidelines.

Again, thank you John, Kamille, and TL Jojo. :)

Ang drama noh? Hehe. Kidding aside, I am just happy because I know, I was able to ignite the 'ang galing ko' mode in them...in a good way syempre. :)) Buti na lang di ko to nasabi kanina kasi baka inabot siguro yung meeting ng 10hrs. Hahaha! :))

Yun lang. If you smile after reading this, that means naintindihan mo ko; but if you react negatively, I'm sorry...I'm sorry for your boss kasi wala syang na-impart na maganda sayo.

That's all. I thank you :)

People of the Year 2011

People of the Year 2011 - I got this idea from Bianca Gonzales. I thought of analyzing the important people who played a great part in moving and honing me for the past year. Don't get me wrong, a lot has actually made a difference in my life, but these chosen ones are the people who stood out and made life-altering changes in my life..for 2011. hehe.:D

1. Mommy : Rom and Darlene

You can say I have the greatest Mommy in the world, the mom who does everything in her power to give me all things that i need..including the most important one in 2011: Understanding and Acceptance. Onset of 2011 was not really good. That was probably one of the ugliest 1st quarter of my whole existence. My self-confidence was challenged and true friends have surfaced. In the midst of confusion and loneliness, a talk to my mom changed it all. It made everything better and it made me see the light. Her acceptance made it all easy...her embrace in the middle of painful tears made me love her more. i love my mom. the best.♥

Rom and Darlene. These two kids made me realize my worth as the eldest...the challenges in the family made me assume my role as an ate. i love them and will do anything for them.. i thank my dad for always watching over us.

2. Best Girlfriends

You'll never go wrong with great girlfriends. They are your source of strength and happiness in times of unbearable pain and misfortune. I owe them my smile and laughter in times of uncertainties and depression. Cheers to a beautiful friendship with you girls.♥

BEBES: They are my lovely girls from 24/7, a friendship solidified by trials and confrontations. Ate Lorie just proved how much she loved me, Ydah just proved her undying support on my decisions, and Chill just proved that the past can be burnt and can be transformed into something better. I love you girls.

Karen and Keish: Karen, my babyhun, joined me as we find our way out of a terrible heart-ache. We can't thank those jerks enough for bringing us closer. They say there's always treasure in every break-up. Yes, there is. Ours were found in a deadly heartbreak..see where we us now? in a far way better place.. i love you, hun.♥ Keish, has always proven me that her abode will always welcome me. Her joyous and sunget ways has always comforted me, plus the fact that her baby Lucas just legally bonded our friendship. legally talaga? hahaha.♥

Oice: She is my Sugar. After the ups and downs of our views of each other, here we are, sugarbabes and more. Again, another thing to be thankful for. Thank you Ron for telling unbelievable stories about her and for hurting the both of us. Now, we're friends and happy...hehe. Labyu Sugar ko ♥

Bes: Krinel has been my long-time bes. Elementary pa. Her phonecalls and daily pangungumusta made it easier for me to move on. I know, though we don't see each other often, our love and care for each other will never grow apart.♥

3. Super Girls

Nica and Manett: These girls made a lot of impact to me; simply because they never left me and surrounded me with nurturing and kind-hearted souls...♥ Nica, my ever-loving mam, never failed to care for me and to amuse me with her natural good heart and loyal friendship. She was there for me in my high and low points, never missed a day without checking on me, and made me smile despite hardcore crying. i love you nica. Manett-my everdearest cousin who has proven that distance won't stop her to comfort me and to guide me. My dad knows how good she is to me. her generosity and genuine love for me has always been present in my whole life existence. I love you Ate Maan.♥

4. Anya

Anya is my most precious inaanak. She's my Tita D's daughter. I love her so much that seeing her and playing with her make me super happy. She's super pretty and I swear to my daddy and lola's tomb, that I will be the best ninang for her..I love you, baby.♥

5. VMS Family

                                                    

This is my second home now. My new career, my new role. They are the people who opened up a new opportunity for me to prove myself and to let me show to the world what I can do. I love them especially my team 2, and my boss, John. Thank you and I love you guys.☻

6. My Mentor

Jojo. TL Jojo has been my daddy-kuya-friend for the past 4 years. His unbelievable ways to make me feel better and make me realize things is just awesome. His words of wisdom never failed to amuse me and for that I admire him. Little did he know, he made a big impact in my life. I love you TL.♥

7. Greatest Love

Wendell has always been my greatest love. What we had was amazing and I cannot thank him enough for the 5 years we were together..those were the critical 5 years of my life as it includes the passing of my Dad. He was the only strength I had that time and his love for me proved me that God's presence was/is always around. He showed me love and respect no other man has ever showed me until this very moment. We drifted apart after my stupid act, but doors opened for our friendship in 2011 after almost 2 years of not showing up. He just proved that time heals and time apart makes us better persons and friendship is always important than any other relationship in this world. Thank you Wendz.♥

8. Best Boyfriends

Francis and Bryan: They are my two boyfriends who made my 2011 lovely and beautiful. Their presence means so much to me. My single life was never dull as they put colorful memories in it. They never failed to show me that I was never alone. Our simple "piging" was always an event to look forward to. I know we will have more hagaran and patulan moments in the next years and I will never leave you guys..I can take a bullet for both of you. I love you Bryan and Francis. ♥

9. Bestfriend

Zsazsa is my everdearest bestfriend. We started 2011 on a wrong note and it tested our friendship. But it also proved us that no amount of pain can break us apart. I love her and I will always fight for her. I will never leave her and will always stand by her. She may be doing things that she'll regret, but she will always have me to join her in regretting. Hehe. I love her and she'll always be my bestfriend.♥

10. Mickey

I don't know how to call him, but one thing is for sure, he summed up my 2011. He was the reason why my heart laughed and cried. 2011 was definitely a good year to remember. He used to be my long-time crush, someone I never thought of having. But heartache opened the door for us. We shared unbelievable kilig moments virtually and shared painful events as well. We planned and we failed. But I will never regret having him in my life. He taught me a lot and he made me feel brand new again after all the pain and downfall. In my heart he will always remain. But of course, I am moving forward. Thank you Mickey.♥

And there, ladies and gentlemen, they are the people I considered significant in my 2011. I still have a lot in mind,  like my housemates and college friends, but these 10 made it on top for making my 2011 an enjoyable ride. I thank God for giving them all to me. I will never ever take them away from my heart's memories.

Bye 2011, hello 2012. I am so excited to be with you. Let go and let God. Your will be done. 


AMEN.♥
