Starlight - Muse: You make my head swayin'  

How much do you love music? How does it effect your mood everyday. I tell you what, I can live without television but I can not live without music. I'm a big fan of instrumental music like Yiruma and Pachelbels, I also love oldies song. I appreciate new songs, slight of rock, alternative, pop and love songs.


Here's one of a great song I'm listening right now. Go over the lyrics, then think of something that make you smile then sway your head. Pretty cool eh?
Enjoy!



Starlight by Muse

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from my memories
Of the people who care if I ive or die

The starlight
I will be chasing your starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away, never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations
And our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away, never fade away

And our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations, yeah
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you

FAVORITISM AND RESPECT  

There are two things that you always need to avoid and needs to carry all the time. Even if your a simple person, a leader, or influential.

In an organization there is always someone to lead. You have members to handle. If you are the leader, people cannot blame you if appreciate someone better than the other, however, when it turns too much then "FAVORITISM" comes to play.

What is Favoritism?
Favoritism is a display of partiality toward a favored person or group.

How can you tell if your showing favoritism.
- You spend much time with the favored person
- You praises the favored person for smaller accomplishments that others don't get praised for
- You lets errors slide when they are made by his/her favorite person
- You give additional help and coaching during completion of assignments that others don't get
- You socializes more with favored person than others
- You talk with emotions with the favored one when you talk casual to others
- You give more resources and advises to the favored one.

If you see yourself in any of those reasons then, you are playing favoritism. Favoritism that demotivates other employees to work with you, with the department and even with the company.It can caused chain reactions to other people. You may not be aware or you can deny but it is something that you need to take actions.

Respect
Respect has different types and different meaning. But I would like to say its
a feeling or understanding that someone or something is important or serious and should be treated in an appropriate way. It is an act of treating people with consideration and esteem; giving importance to other peoples’ feelings; listen to people and hearing them and more importantly, respect means treating one with dignity.

Respect is the opposite of humiliation and contempt. It is the first thing that we need in order to build a good relationship with others. We are not being ask to like or understand each point of view but respect comes when accepting the differences, we still honor them.

Favoritism and Respect is very common problem to a workplace, organization or group of people. You may analyze the below example and see how you apply the topic to it.

In a workplace, the boss was well know for his good work. Working in a company for half a decade , doing a lot of things but same thing everyday makes you know all the process. The boss gave a newly joined person an assignment with instructions on it. Before end of the day the assignment was returned to boss desk with a tag "complete". When the boss checked it, he saw something was not made correctly and something is missing. The boss was not impressed and from then on, other work of that person was never appreciated. He talk in sarcastic and unpleasant way. It is not a secret to everyone that boss showed favoritism to other colleague. He passed over the assignment to the favored one, without even talking to the other person, not even given a chance to correct his work or improve himself.

How to show respect?
1. Do unto others as you would others do unto you. Treat others like the way you wanted to be treated.
2. Learn to listen. Let people explain. Never assumed. Never Judge. Treat them fairly.
3. Do not insult in whatever way, instead try to understand them.


I hope you guys find the post useful. I just want to remind or educate someone about this.

Back to my sailing day.  

I guess , I would like to apologized for not being around for 2 years and some months here. I remembered that I created this blog because of my friends in my work place. As we decided to change our paths I started to feet a little bit lame in managing this blogspot until the day comes that I forgot this whole thing totally.

Anyway, I here now. I am back! i guess I have to start from the scratch, you think so? Unless someone will comment.

How To Deal With Life Changes  

  1. Keep in close contact with friends and family. If need be, clean the numbers of those "fair-weather" friends out of your cell phone. Only true friends will stick around and help you get through life altering changes, everyone else will just take up your valuable time or add more stress to your already crazy life. Talk with your close friends and family. You may be surprised of their wisdom.
  2. Give yourself a quite time. Taking the time to recharge your batteries will help you be better prepared in times of crisis. Listen to soft, relaxing music. Turn off the computer, TV and phone. Learn to meditate. It will help you clear out "worries" in your head.
  3. If you have been such as depression, learn as much as you can about it. It is helpful to find a person who can give you comfort and can give the kind of treatment you need. Look in to medications that could help you and take on a holistic approach to your condition. Look at the way you live your life, what kinds of habits have you formed? What could you do to change these habits or acquire healthier ones? This is rough at first, but will get easier as time passes.
  4. Meet your gorup friends . This can help you connect with some who share a similar interest and maybe provide a wider network of support and can give you advise.
  5. Think positively. Live life one day at a time. Set small goals for yourself and reward yourself when you reach them. Sometimes looking too much at a long term goal can be overwhelming. Break up the larger goal into smaller goals.
  6. Do something fun. This can take your mind off stressful events. Visit a friend you haven't seen in a long time. Go see that movie you've been dying to see. Take a trip to the place you want to go and you've never been. Learn something new.
  7. Learn how to say no. If you are already stretched thin, learn how to recognize this and assertively say no when someone asks you for another favor. You don't have to give them reasons why.
  8. Volunteer. Helping those who are in worse situations than you can really put things into perspective. Help out a friend or a family member in need much more than you.
  9. Find your own personal higher power. Picture a divine higher power that you can give your problems to and take over when you are worn out. You can't control every aspect of your life. This is impossible, so simply hand it to your personal Higher Power.

Parting time..  




Its sad that you have to let go of the things that is always part of your everyday life. It's hard to let go of the memories where you met a good family, where you made a lot of friends, where you learn how to enjoy life after a very stressful day. It is hard to forget the things that made you happy and realize that life is not that easy. Things around us is not really permanent but one thing remains the same and will always stay in everybody's heart, that is the kind of family we have inside the area of WEB.COM. The end is near and most of us are planning to move on too. It is really sad that we will not be in the same floor where we usually have an unforgettable memories, memories that is worth to remember for the rest of our lives.
It started with 1 and another one and now the whole account. I understand that life moves in a way in which you did not expect the things that will happen and maybe this how life goes. Everything is moving in its own angle where in parting is needed. Everything has a purpose and we will see what's that purpose in the future.


To Rizza:

From this day forward your executive chair will be vacant..there will be no more Rizza that will greet me with "Hi Greicia" every time I arrive on my station. Girl! the truth is, knowing that you wont be here every shift, I can say that im already missing you. Too corny but seeing us incomplete in Web.com floor is really different.


Miss you!

Nak naman ng teteng oh!  



Anu ba ang naiisip mo kapag pay day?Kung marami kang pera siguro bale wala na lang sau ang hindi pagsahod sa oras o kulang man ang sahod mo. Pero kung nagpapagod ka talaga, nagpuppuyat ng bonggang bongga at ng bibigay ng effort naku sa araw araw na lang yata e binibilang mo kung kelan ang payday. Lagi mong inaasahang na maayos ang lahat dahil kailangan mong magbudget sa luob ng 15 araw at ang pera mo e nakabudget lang talaga ng 15 araw.. Anu kaya ang mararamdaman mo kung sapat na sapat lang ang pera mo at malaman mong WALANG LAMAN ang atm mo, Sabado walang banko, holiday sa monday so need mong maghintay ng Tuesday pa..panu naman ang buhay! buti sana kung wala kang paglalaanan ng mga pera mo!Mabuti na lang e may mabubuti kaibigan na handang tumulong ng nalamang ganun nga ang nagyari.. Actually may nasense na ko nung isang araw pa na baka magkaproblema kasi lalabas sana kami ng mga friends para kumain at wahhhhhhhh di ko naman alam na magkakatutuo pala. Ang nakakainis lang sana laging may lugar sa word na "baka" ...para lahat ginagawa ng maaga.. wala namang masama kung maibigay ng mas maaga e masama ung wala na sa oras.. Alam namang inaasahan ng lahat un..Sana man lang naiisip nila ang mga bagay na tulad ng ganito..ikaw?sau kaya mangyari?anu pakiramdam?tingnan ko lang kung masabi mong "ok lang yan" tsk tsk!

Tentay  

Alas 7 wala na masyadong tao sa lugar natin..usually sa ganitong oras konti na lang kami so iisipin mong tahimik sa floor ng Web.com ngunit subalit datapwat sa ganitong oras, dalawang boses lagi ang nangingibabaw.. Ang boses ng dalawang parang laging nagaaway at parang di magkasundong magkatabing si Eiffel at Tentay..ngunit subalit datapwat ulit ngaun ay tahimik na dahil sa pagalis ng isa sa kanila..Tentay gusto kong malaman mo na kahit parang dulo dulo tau at kahit tahimik lang ako sa upuan ko na naririnig ang paguusap nyo ni Eiffel na parang kulang na lang e magsapakan kau. hehehe e namimiss kita.. Minsan nafafake din ako sa inyo ni Eiffel para kasing talagang nagkakapikunan na kau pero hindi pala...hehehe nakakatawa kaung magusap..kakaiba kaya ngaung matahimik na..parang nakakaantok!parang mga seryoso na mga tao.

Sa pagsagot mo sa mga calls patago akong nangingiti o natatawa sa upuan ko lalu na kapag magaout ka na.bakit? E ang astig mo kasing magtake ng call parang tinatakot mo ang customer hahahaha. Kulang na lang e sabihin mo na "ihung up mo na ang phone". Kapag nagtatransfer ka sa ibang department lalu na sa tech..kahit tech agent di makabutt in sau kulang na lang sabihin mong "tech issue to dali take mo na ung call" kaya siguro kahit irate ang customer e walang magagawa kapag magouout ka na..tsk tsk..hehehe
