Captured Moments of August 2013 - Part 1

I went through the whole nine yards just to put out this album. And I say: Touchdown! I actually did it! Hahaha! Forgive the football lingo. I am not an authority of that sport. I don't even understand the game. My only hint of interest is finding out who will perform during the Super Bowl Halftime. (Bruno Mars for this season. Yay!)

Going back: What am I talking about? It's about Photo A Day. It was started in January 2012 by Chantelle of FatMumSlim.au Every month she creates a unique list of daily prompts and people all over the world take a daily photo, using the list as inspiration. And you can share where ever you please, Facebook and Instagram being popular choices.
What is the point of this exercise? F-U-N. The stop-and-smell-the-roses kind of fun. Anything is almost possible. If you put your mind - especially your heart - into it.
Is it life changing? NO, if you want it in the earth-shattering way. YES, if you believe that little smiles can change the color of your world.
Any rewards for this exercise? Yes. The likes from friends and strangers around the world. Even if some are probably on autobot. Appreciation always feels good. Especially when one has to exert extra effort for creativity! Hahaha.
So scroll down. Make usioso. Now na! :-D

Have A Great Day!

Accidental hiring. That's what happened to me five months ago. I got called for initial interview, passed the exams, hurdled the final screening and found myself with a job. In a business processes outsourcing company  otherwise known as a call center. The reasons that I accepted this particular offer was:
  1. it was for a pioneer account 
  2. the training manager promised that it is a difficult account 
  3. tedium can generate a craving for extreme challenges
  4. I rather like their office building
The starting pay was industry standard; just enough to keep you going. But since it was not really my main motivation, I will not elaborate. Lol. But I love the company. How it takes care of its people and at the same time, satisfying the stringent demands of the client. I was happy to build another career. If I can survive my own personal challenges.
