Little things I got after getting my first paycheck

It was payday last Thursday and it was my day off yesterday, so I got the chance to shop for stuff I want. *winks* I feel good seeing my paycheck 'coz I know it's money I worked so hard for. At least I won't have to give my hubs a headache everytime I want to buy something. Since it's my first paycheck, I bought stuff that aren't really expensive. I don't have a car yet, so I didn't have the chance to go the mall and pick out some stuff. I wanted to buy shoes and a cute purse, but that has to wait. We have bills to pay, so I can't just use all my paycheck on things I just want. But getting these simple things yesterday made me feel happy inside. 'Coz I was able to buy it with my own hard earned money.

I'm not allergic to Maybelline, so I got these stuff I need


Here are the rest of the stuff I got: Sponge applicators for my foundation, facial wash, eyeliner, concealer, mascara, lip balm, lipstick, face powder, nail polish, and blush

I know that most women would prefer MAC and all the other high end stuff, but I have to be realistic and practical, so those expensive stuff will have to wait. I can settle for these drugstore brands, 'coz they work for me and it's not heavy on the pocket.

I gotta start saving for a car.

Oks lang naman kahit drug store brand, and importante ay hindi ka allergic. They wouldn't know if it's MAC or Walgreens pag nasa mukha na diba? :-)

Medical Examination at SLMCEC

November 9-10, 2009 This will be a blow by blow account of my medical exam that took place last week. If you want to be first in line, you can be there as early as 3am, but I went there at 5am because I wanted to make sure that I am safe while taking the exam and I don't want to wait in line for 2-3 hours. It was a good move, since they were already accepting applicants at 5am and I got in around 5:20am and I was the 54th applicant of the day. Make sure to have the following ready: 1. Passport 2. 4 2x2 visa pictures (they will only take 3 though, but I brought 4 since that's their requirement) 3. Original and photocopy of approval letter from the embassy 4. Print out of your interview schedule 5. Black ballpoint pen 6. Payment (213.35 - exchange rate is at 48) Flow chart: 1. At 5:30 I already got in and filled out the Patient Data Sheet form. Memorize your fiance's address and phone number or at least have a copy of it. 2. The guard called us up for the digital picture taki

I'm not so evil after all

" I never got the chance to be your trainee, but I heard a lot of good things about you Ms. Dee." Reading this post from someone I barely even know made my heart flutter. I know that I have been totally brutal with my trainees when I was still working as a trainer back home 'coz I want them to be excellent in their field. I know I was hated by many 'coz I don't know how to kiss people's asses. I even almost got in trouble with our big boss when I was only passing a few people during interviews. A lot of people were mad at me 'coz of my unbelievable standards. A lot of times it did affect me and all I wanted was to please everyone, but I was also pushed by my one of my supervisors not to lower my standards. I got reprimanded for passing a few people during interviews by our big boss, and I got reprimanded by my direct supervisor for passing a lot of trainees during my class. I was totally confused when I was starting up in my new field. But time, experience

Mr. Crabs

I am selectively listening to Blood Hound Gang's Uhn tiss Uhn Tiss Uhn Tiss almost the whole day. I say selectively, 'coz the lyrics is not really something you would be proud to share to everyone. But the beat is catchy and it triggers my happy brain neurons and makes me want to talk about....king crab legs. Yes, the king crab legs I had last Friday. I love crabs especially if it's cooked in coconut milk. My mom used to cook one whole pot for me everytime I visit Bukidnon. It's such a treat 'coz the Davao-Bukidnon trip takes around 4 hours, so going home to hot rice and a pot of crabs cooked in coconut milk is like being in heaven. It makes me forget how sucky my trip was and just makes me thank my mom for cooking my favorite food. But gone were those days when I just tell my mom I want crabs, 'coz here the crabs are very expensive! They don't have the wet market we have in Valencia that sells crabs for 240php per kilo. The cheapest is 8.99 USD per lb here.
