Happy Birthday Nanay

Yesterday was the 87^th birthday of my mother. Nanay is another name we called our mothers in the Philippines. Depending on what region we belong. Some called their mothers, Ina  or Inay. My mother celebrated her birthday in heaven with her beloved husband, my father. I am glad I was able to visit them being my day off. My visit was for her birthday and post father’s day. I took a snap of the main entrance to my parents resting place. The bright morning sunlight was blurring my vision. 

To be honest I hesitated the night before if I should go.Metro wide earthquake drill was scheduled 22nd of Jun. I anticipated heavy traffic jam. To alleviate the possibility of delay or getting stranded due to scheduled activity, I was out of the house by 5am. I took a bus and was at the place by 6am. The care taker of my parents plot greeted me with a wide grin and asked why I was too early.

I left the place by 9am.I managed to drop by at supermarket for some groceries on my way home. I was home by 11:30am. I am happy to have gone to my parents resting place. I do hope I made them happy, as well. 

Love Month Activities

It was the birthday of my late father 5^th of February. I have work that day. I brought him basket of fresh flowers and candle, the 8^th of February, my day off. 

Giving of flowers on Valentine’s Day is a tradition most of the team captains at our office do not want to miss. I received a long stem rose from my thoughtful team captain. She gave all the ladies in our team one stem red rose.  I took it home, these cuties enjoyed the company for a while. 

My team mates and I were jubilant knowing our team won as Best Team, 4^th Quarter on 2014. This was unexpected. Most of us in our team are tenured agents. We handle the most difficult calls and unresolved issues. Customer survey is part of our monthly score.  The sentiments of customers varies on their unresolved issues. We received the award a day after Valentine’s Day. We are proud of the achievement! 

Birthday

To all who greeted me on my birthday last 22^nd of September, to those you sent me email, instant messenger, text messages and sent me a birthday present.

Appreciate your taking time out from your busy schedule to greet me.

A day after, two more slices left, out of chocolate mousse cake.

Cute shoulder bag, from my sister.

A Day to Remember

Yesterday, Feb 5 is the 85^th birthday of my late father.  I went to the memorial park to bring flowers and candle.  My parents were laid to rest in the same place. The memorial park is not close to my house. I do not visit my parents too often. Except if there is occasion. I am a bit guilty for not visiting them last Christmas as I used to do. Despite the difference of the place where they are now, we still belong to one family.

I was amazed by the number of people at the memorial park. Cars were neatly parked at the designated parking spaces. Family members were having lunch together under the shade of a huge picnic umbrella. Some children were running around to probably ease their boredom or simply just to play. Are you not wondering how quickly children could invent a game on any occasion? 

The Busy Bee

It rained last Friday night at around seven in the evening. I guess some employees from day time work stayed late at their office for a while. It was to elude from getting wet. I went to the place I used to wait for a ride, one and a half hour earlier. It takes only fifteen minutes from same waiting area to get to the office.

Surprise! Hordes of people waiting to get a ride!!! The line was too long!

I decided not to line up with them and looked for a taxi to take me to work. Double unfortunate events, there was no taxi passing by without heads at the back or beside the driver seat. I sent text message to my team captain I will be late for my training. 1 arrived at the office an hour late. I used to stand up or asked questions to the training officer to keep myself awake. 

Cups of coffee did not work. The training concluded at seven in the morning, Saturday. We enjoyed boxes of pizza and a cake from our colleagues who celebrated their birthday during the training.
