| a million filipinos just to see one human being |

its a roll-your-eyes-and-make-a -sound moment.
one of the actors of the philippines came to dubai yesterday.
lets just say he's like the bradd pitt of philippines.
apparently my mom was one his stalkers so we were eventually dragged to the mall just to see the same face we see in the huge posters of bench shop.
everyone kept squealing and screaming most of the time... i just kept my earphones on, and let them scream in mute.
i rolled my eyes trying to figure out why in the world would people come to a shop they barely know to just spot someone who breaths the same air they do?
who walks on the same land they walk on?
who does what any ordinary human being does...
if he was an alien who has like a zillion eyes and no heart, then that's something willing to watch.
not some guy who stands with a bunch of people just to take a quick picture.
celebrities are human too... i dont know why people cant get that.

"no! you have to do that agian! you dint enter it right."
"order this, order that.."
"were having problems because of you.."
and i dont even wanna mention any specific irritating comments i ALWAYS hear at the back of my neck.
if everyone else can be patient and understanding that i may have certain errors, especially in my first week, then shouldnt she?
i can say a zillion more things of complains but the feeling of being useless here wont fade.
another one of those days again where you are regarded as the good-for-nothing.

hey! back again...
well who wouldnt be, when you have people welcoming you with open arms? :)
thanks to those who commented on my short and pointless blog yesterday. :P
anyway, i updated my profile, i dint know how to get there so i had to explore everything.. i guess its always a part of being new in this kind of thing.
so im here at work right now. been here for a week and im starting to enjoy it ( minus the near to death screams you get from the phone when you can barely understand what their saying) its all part of the job isnt it?
if it wasnt, there would be no challenge.
lately ive been running around the office-
not missing a phone call, faxing, entering purchase orders which are urgent, and filing them at the back of the office.
and when the phone rings, have to run back a mile a way to answer it.( okey i was clearly exagerating)
but its got bloopers all over it: i'd be eating lunch at my desk, and the phone rings, so i chew my food fast and swallow it hard to not miss the call...
it usually ends up that the person on the other line couldnt wait any longer and so he/she hangs up. :|
but im still grateful...
because there are a lot of people out there who are in desperate need of any job they can get their hands on just to be able to feed their family, and im only doing it so i'll be able to earn for a plane ticket back home to study.
thats why at the end of the day,
theres no complains,
because God had given me what i needed,
and i dint have to ask Him for it :).
Liz.
