Recently, I've been watching Korean dramas and I find it very entertaining. The story line is good and the actors are the best. When I thought of it, I'd like to share to you my top most 5 favorite dramas so far. Here it goes.

1. CITY HUNTER

 

When I saw the official poster of this drama I never really liked it. However, when I started EP1 my eyes and mind can't get rid of the story line that struck me. The best of the best from what I saw so far.

2. SCENT OF A WOMAN
 

One of the best love stories I've watched. It was about the true meaning of love and how you can overcome all the obstacles no matter what. I love the characters so much and the story of those people having cancer and just waiting to die. My heart felt the unfairness of life and all of the bitterness it has.

3. YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL

 

This drama never caught my attention when I first saw it on www.viki.com as one of the featured dramas. I tried to watch it when I was waiting for another ep from one of my awaited dramas. It was so good that from the start till the end of the series I was laughing hard and it made me that happy. 

4. WILD ROMANCE 

 

This is the funniest drama I've ever seen from EP one to ten and it surprisingly makes me laugh from minute one upto the last minute of an episode. The best ending I've ever seen on a K-drama. A wild and Hilarius rom-com ever.

5. BOF

The first ever K-Drama that I've watched and made me feel that the dramas made by Koreans are really good. They have this amazing way to capture the hearts of the viewers and it works for me. Who could not know the story of Geum Jan di and Gu jun pyu? Love them all and forever!

Unfair system!

 

When I first got this job, I was the happiest person living. First job after graduating and privileged to be one of the agents on this account. I never thought that this time will come. 

I'm the kind of person that works even if it's beyond my responsibility. One thing that's bad about me is health. I easily get colds and fever. When I started working here, I always get sick and took leave of absences. 

I always ask permission and never did I forget to give medical certificates. Unless it's a family emergency.

Lately, our supervisor went to a different account. We were a bit sad because of it. However, ever since we started this job,  I have this colleague that never think of others. He just wanted to get benefits just for himself. I like him as a friend but not as a co-worker. He's being too unfair. He logs in at 5 and works at 7. The one thing I hated the most is that no one dares to consult or even chastise him for this. Adding to my disappointment, our new supervisor scolded me about using the two 15 minute break at the same time. It was really okay for me to get the scold since it was really wrong and a violation do that. 

I accepted it heartily. Yesterday, his shift was supposedly at 5 am. He was not late. Arrived at 4:50 am and went to a huddle by our manager. Came back around 5:45 and still he weren't able to set up his tools yet. I already got three chats (The maximum chat capacity of each agent) and was very angry because he always do this all the time. He always finds a reason to log in late and waste time. Walked around the floor and had chit chats with the other agents made me angrier. If only I had the guts to say it to his face, I would have done it since then. I just thought of the feeling being insulted and I'm the kind of person that really doesn't want trouble. This might be the reason why people always take me for granted. 

At 6, I thought he already set up his tools. I was surprised when he invited our SME to have a break and was even more amazed when they went out together. I felt disgusted and angry because no one noticed or dared to say anything. Is he a GOD or the owner of the company? Damn! I then told our supervisor about it and never thought that he didn't even said a word to the person whom I talked about.

From that time then, I thought about resigning. I always get the unfair judgement and never had the chance to prove anything. I always do my best to be the best and they never notice it. He just stays there and Poof! all the credits goes to him. They always say that they will take action about it but it's been two years already and the same stupid things happen. I really don't want to go against this person but he pushed me through this. I respected him and he never realizes any of it. 

Counting down......

10 minutes left and WELCOME 2012!

I might not be given the chance to spend it with my family but I'm still happy that I was able to until 8pm today. That was enough for me. The smiles that I saw from them was all worthwhile.


Hoping for a great new year!

What's for the NEW year?

Hmmm.... Been thinking of resolutions already but never really wanted to have list. I never ever follow them anyways.... But for sure, I will make 2012 the best year.

I did a search for my birth year and here it goes:

The Dragon is a creature of myth and legend. A symbol of good fortune and sign of intense power, the Oriental Dragon is regarded as a divine beast - the reverse of the malicious monster that Westerners felt necessary to find and slay. In Eastern philosophy, the Dragon is said to be a deliverer of good fortune and a master of authority. Therefore, those people born in Dragon years are to be honored and respected.----- You should respect me guys.... lol

DRAGON FACTS:

People born in the Year of the Dragon share certain characteristics. The Dragon sign is an abbreviated way of characterizing that individual's personality. Following are features associated with the sign of the Dragon. 

CHARACTERISTICS

• Innovative
• Enterprising
• Flexible
• Self-assured
• Brave
• Passionate
• Conceited
• Tactless
• Scrutinizing
• Unanticipated
• Quick-tempered 

Soooooo True.....

THE EARTH DRAGON  1988

Earth Dragons make great managers because they are practical, levelheaded and demonstrate a knack for organizing. They still have the need to dictate and be admired, but they are affable, congenial and supportive. Compared to other Dragons, Earth Dragons are less likely to breathe fire at the least irritation. They will work diligently to complete their life goals. The Earth element adds a greater portion of self-control to the Dragon's personality and usually the Earth Dragon is deserving of the respect he or she desires. These Dragons take their life and romantic responsibilities quite seriously.

I don't think so... I'm still an agent.... But planning to level up this year because it's my year (Evil Laugh)....

HEALTH

Dragons take thrilling risks and burn the candle at both ends so they are fortunate to be blessed with good health. Among the most hearty of the Animal signs, they can suffer bad health as a result of stress. Symptoms of their personalities often stem from emotional outbursts and can range from tension headaches to depression to hypertension. Dragons can remedy these problems by maintaining their cool, implementing a routine in their daily lives, and utilizing exercises such as yoga or tai kwon do that soothe the mind and spirit as well as tone the body.

Hahahaha I have a very big body..... Not fat but big...

Scrambled thoughts

Darn, I promised I will post something but I never had the time. I am now very busy watching Korean dramas that I always forget posting something here. For the past few weeks many things happened. 

I started to join the the 'Christian Life Program' of Singles for Christ. But still doing those bad habits. For two weeks straight, I have been drinking, smoking and trying to kill myself by not having enough sleep when going to work. 

Then my body collapsed. I was hospitalized last week because my kidney was swollen and I had an infection. I thought I will die that time. Luckily, I am still here writing this blog. 

Now, I am obliged to go on a diet and lose weight. I really planned it before the hospitalization happened, but because of some reasons, I wasn't able to do it.

These days, I am trying to pull my self together and think of what is happening in my life. The problems I am ignoring and the things that will happen because of my issues at present.
My dad and mom wanted to separate, my brothers and sisters still think that they don't have their own families. Mom always think that dad is having an affair with somebody else even though she doesn't have the proof. Dad always scold mom like it was his maid. 

I hate this life sometimes. Whenever I have problems it always comes like it wanted to kill me.

Sometimes, I wanted it all to stop. That will never happen though... :(

Partner

When I hear that word, I always think about a bestfriend, Love one or colleague. These past few days, I have been watching different Korean Drama. So melodramatic of me but I truly admire and congratulate the writers in Korea. I am not saying that Filipinos are off. I do have the right to appreciate things right? Also, I always think about the difference and quality of drama in the Philippines and Korea and I admire both. 

Going back to the main point. I watched Partner for two days and a half and it really did fed me everything. Although some of it are very crucial and unbelievable, I do believe that there are people out there who would rather choose injustice than to offer their lives. Also, I know that many are still pure at heart and believe in what we call JUSTICE. 

The word ‘Partner’ takes a different meaning when it is used in law firm. Partners are the people who survived from the power struggle. They are executives who are on the top of the law firm pyramid. Enterprises are law firm’s partners. Law firms fight each other to become a partner of business. They struggle to be close to power and to become a slave of money. There are some lawyers who want be the partners of commoners as well. They are willing to be the spokesperson for the underprivileged. It is a story about partner; the one who is going to stay by your side and fight together in front of law. 

Cast

Kim Hyun Joo as Kang Eun Ho
Lee Dong Wook as Lee Tae Jo
Choi Chul Ho as Lee Young Woo (Tae Jo’s older brother)
Lee Ha Nui as Han Jung Won

This drama really taught me about life. You can never judge a person on how they handle themselves physically. He might be the worst person you taught you knew but deep inside there's a very good heart that became numb because of the things that happened to his life. He might be the happiest person you've ever seen but deep inside, you will see the true feeling that's been killing him in his entire life. It doesn't only speak about law firms and the law, but it also help us to be more considerate, understanding and vigilant at the same time. That's how we need to handle life. Cause without that, there begins conflicts and worst, death.

What to do with me life?

When I was a kid, I'm not that very ambitous. As what we always say 'I wanted to be------ someday'. The most important thing in my life then was to play and play. It changed when I went to highschool. All of it. I started to dream of getting a job with a higher salary. If not, be a professional nurse to find a cure or maybe a doctor. I've always dreamt of how my life would be for the next few years.

Now, here I am sitting in this very cozy chair and thinking of what to do in my life. The dreams I had are still unreachable. However, I did find a job with a good salary. Wondering again what will happen to me for the next 5 to 10 years. Would I still be here and lonely? Or would I be able to reach my dreams.

 One of it is to have a family, living on the spot where I really wanted the most. My dream house would be near the shoreline if not, above the shoreline. I wanted to see the wide ocean or sea and die with the sun set. I wanted to feel the warm breeze and feel all the love that God gave us. That's how I see my life.

It will only be dependent on how I do it today. Just wishing and wishing. Maybe one of the falling stars grant it.

Forgot about you.

Hey there. Sorry not been blogging for the past few days. I have been busy with work and specially hanging out with Dhee. We were almost drunk everyday. It was all worth it. Many things happened and really don't know why it did. Me and my exboyfriend went to a fiesta near our place. Dhee and him got into a fight but already good with it. I got a fever last wednesday but still managed to drink 2 cases of beer with some of my friends. I really don't know what's gotten into me these past few days. I think I might die because of an alcohol overdose. Does anybody know anything about that? Oh, well. That doesn't matter either, as long as I'm still alive, that's far more important.

After drinking, all I want to do is sleep and sleep and sleep. Too bad I need to go to work. No chance of complaining since no one told me to drink even if I have work the next day. I just love my life right now. No one's forcing me to do this and to do that. I always follow my feet wherever it leads me. I might not live for long but will never regret all the things that happened into my life. It may never be as meaningful as with others but for me it's worth dying for. LOL. Don't really know what I am saying. Just here for now. I have had many drafts to finish. :)

The beginning of what we called 'Real Life'

When I was still at my young and vulnerable age, I wondered what will happen after I finish schooling. What course would I take and every curious questions runs through my mind. When I was in college, I never took it seriously. I always thought that life is all about fun and happenings. I was average in terms of grades and never really did learn that much. 

After graduation, the reality of looking for a job strike me. I was sitting in the middle of the town and thinking what job should I get. As a nursing graduate, it is very difficult for us to find one. Many are jobless and most doesn't fit for the job. Then it killed every dream I had. I never thought that life would be this hard. Living on your own. 

Thinking of my capacity, I decided to work in a BPO company. It was early in the morning that I printed the resumes needed for the day's planned applications. I first applied in a small call center and unfortunately, wasn't able to get the job. The money left in my pocket was just 100 PHP. I haven't had my breakfast and my feet hurts. I ignored every pain I felt. I walked all day and still didn't get any recommendations. I almost surrendered the next day. I asked 2 of my friends to go with me. Luckily, I passed the initial interview and after long hours of waiting I still failed. I stopped looking for a job. Until one day, one of the companies called and told me that there is a new account. I grabbed the opportunity and I got my first job! I called my mom and told her about it. She was as happy as I am. 

After almost 2 years of working in this company, I realized how lucky and blessed I am to have a job.

Last night, one of my best friends invited me to a fiesta. I went there with a friend and I was shocked to see him like that. When we were still in college, he's a tall thin guy and full of dreams for his family. Now, he has a stable and a nice job that provides him more that what he needed. My best friend planned to go abroad. As I watched them closely, I realized that we were no longer immature all are different.

It seems like yesterday that I graduated. Everything else is different. The way I look into life and handle it. The people around me changed. Some improved and others not. The so called fear of the unknown has been opened and I'm still starting. Hoping I won't surrender on my way and will win this battle for good.
