It's been a while since I posted an entry here in my blog. As mush as I wanted so badly to document every event in my life in this blog, the company I'm working with is very serious about it's core value of integrity and confidentiality. Living here in Manila is keeps me busy, leaving me no time to even check my email. I enjoying everything though. It may seem to be quite difficult for a newly graduate, fragile and stupid (for now) man like me to live independently in the country's business zones... but I think I can do it.
Last week was my first week of work at Accenture. I just attended some seminars and trainings (sorry if I could not disclose the topics since they are of high confidentiality). The training was quite easy, especially knowing that I'm still at the 'bench' (that means, I'm not yet deployed in any project). Basically, a typical day for me at work would just be a struggle to kill time, or a 'bountiful' day in some important trainings. I'm really enjoying being with the accenture staff. They're like my Ulupong friends raised to the tenth power. They're hilarious and very accomodating. There's no dull moment when they're talking to us new recruits.
The only difficult thing about work is when it comes to travelling from home to work and vice versa. It would take me 2-3 rides (plus more than a kilometer walk) to reach the 37th floor of a huge building there in Ortigas. Even if I would always wake up before 4 in the morning to prepare for work, there's no assurance that I'll arrive at 8 o'clock or even earlier for work. I have to ride the jeep (which is usually stuck in a traffic) and after crossing three huge malls, the MRT (which is usually flocked by unimaginable number of passengers). My G-pass really could'nt help much in my easy access to the MRT. A typical day would mean a day to forcefuly hit my entire body with the others' just to easily get through the 'hindi mahulugang karayom na train'.
Moving forward... (=P), I'm now living with a close realtive here in Quezon City. They're just so hospitable and kind that they have let me come into their lives. With their kind offer for me to stay with them, I was privileged to utilize an airconditioned room, washing machine, refrigerator, internet-connected PC, IT and Programming books, lots of food, and other life necessities (e.i. celfone load and cable TV...LOL). With this, staying in this new terrain is just as simple as counting from one to ten.
