Ang Demonya ay Naka-Prada!

TAGALIZED:

Clarice, mag-isip ka nga, magseryoso ka. Hindi mo ginagalingan. Wala kang sinusubukan, ikaw ay puro lang reklamo. Anong bang gusto mong sabihin ko sa'yo ha na, "Kawawa ka naman, Clarice. Kawawa ka. Ikaw lang ang nakikita niya, kawawa ka naman."? ..Iyon ba? Gumising ka nga! Ginagawa lang nila ang trabaho nila. Hindi mo ba alam na ang mga kasama mo sa trabaho, dito sa lugar na ito, ay ang mga taong naglalathala ng pinakamagagaling at pinakamahuhusay na mga obra sa panahong ito? Rajo Laurel, Inno Sotto, Joey Samson, Jojie Lloren, Puey Quinones, Randy Ortiz. At ang mga nililikha nila ay mahigit pa sa isang kasanayan dahil ito ang dahilan kung bakit ka nabubuhay. Siyempre hindi ikaw, ..yung ibang tao. Sa palagay mo ba isa lang itong babasahin, ha? Hindi lang ito isang babasahin. Ito ay isang pag-asa, inspirasyon! Sa... hindi ko alam kung kanino... sabihin na lang natin na.. sa isang batang lalaki na may anim na kuya sa pamilyang nakatira sa Mindanao na nagkukunwari na magaling maglaro ng sipa at patintero pero ang totoo ang gustong gawin ay ang manahi at magtabas ng tela kaya naman gabi-gabi ay patagong nagbabasa ng Mega na ang tanging tanglaw ay lampara. Wala kang alam kung gaano kadami na ang mga sikat na dumaan rito. At ang masama sa lahat, wala kang paki-alam. Dahil ang lugar na ito, kung saan madaming tao magpapakamatay para makapagtrabaho, na ikaw nagbabaliwala lang. At ngayon, tinatanong mo kung bakit hindi ka niya binibigyang puri tuwing natatapos mo nang mahusay ang iyong trabaho? Gising, Clarice.

Dial our toll free hotline 1-800-BACK-OFF!

Questions? Comments? Suggestions?

Sa totoo lang, ilan kaya sa mga Pilipino ang tumatawag sa mga call center para magreklamo, magtanong, at kahit mag-osyoso lang (o pampatay ng oras)?

Nineteen sixty seven pa ng umuso ang toll free sa mga hotel. Sinisingil ang mga tinatawagan sa halip na ang mga tumatawag kada minuto.

Gamitin kaya natin 'yang mga hotline hotline na 'yan. Tulad ng *888 ng Smart na katagal-tagal naman bago sagutin ng kanilang mga operator, low batt na lang ang cellphone mo wala ka pang nakakausap. O tulad ng 1710, ng Digitel na tuut-tut-tuuut lang. At saka sa Meralco na 16211 at itanong na "Bakit ang mahal-mahal niyo sumingil?!"

Tumawag ako kanina sa Digitel tungkol sa billing ng telepono at internet namin dito sa bahay. Pinoproblema ko kasi ang tatlong buwan ko nang hindi binabayaran ang P777 kaya P2331 na siya ngayon.

At ako ang responsableng magbayad ng bill ng telepono namin. Walang pera si Daddy. Ipaputol na daw. Weh. AYOKO! Wala din akong pera. Pero meron naman akong kuya, hahaha, na puwedeng magbayad kasi nagtatarbaho din siya ay sa Call Center!~



At nalinawagan naman ako pagkatapos kong makipag-chit-chat dun sa rep ng Digitel. Kung paano ko babayaran ang bill ng gamit ay atm (na hindi pala naman puwede). Kung puwede bang magbayad na luma ang gamit na bill.

Sa halos dalawang linggo kong pagtira sa apartment na may tatlo o apat na taong nagtatrabaho sa Call Center, may ilang jargons akong narinig na sila-sila ang nagkakaintindihan.

Haller! Welcome to Back Off Customer Service Hotline. How may I help you? ..Please hold.

I don’t know why, but I really am more comfortable expressing my thoughts in.. English. It’s not my mother tongue, I’m not fluent at it and, my God, my grammar is terrible and also, I have inadequate vocabulary.
My blogs would sound cheesy and corny if I choose to write in Filipino or Tagalog. It’s not that I don’t like nor I hate my mother tongue.
Besides, blogging and writing in English serves as my practice.

2009 - Too Oh Awesome

1. Grow out my hair.
I’ve spent my whole 2008 with a short do. I regularly visit a salon to have my hair trimmed. I met Mustiola, at your service in Freshaire in SM Lucena, and I just love how she cuts and shapes my hair. I always And I had enough of it. This 2009, I will never cut it! Never.

2. Be a vegetarian for a month or two. Lose weight, in short.

Really, I’m fat. No, not fat. But I’m out of shape. I feel some fats of my body that wasn’st there before. I will not play soccer anymore; so there’s no more running. All I can do is control my cravings. Choose healty foods. Avoid sweets. God, I wish I can. Less rice. More fibers. Walk. Walk. Walk. According to what I have heard, a person should lose 2 pounds a week. That’s normal.

3. Read more books − fiction or non-fiction. Whatever.

I need to read more books. Have to feed my mind. I know I’m a not so very intelligent, I’m not. So I try to read. I’m a slow reader too! Oh my. So, I need to find and read substantial books. I’m a so bad with spelling to. Gosh! How did my parents raise me?!

4. Be organizied! And be MORE organized next year. Or at least just try.

I got myself a new organizer. I’m crossing my fingers that this will help me out. I need every day to have a glipse first on what’s ahead of me and what am I supposed to do on a certain day just so I don’t waste my time. Do you get me? I need a planner. If I don’t have a planner I won’t accomplish anything. I have to list down everything I need to do so I will do it. Next year I think I’ll buy myself a Moleskine Dairy 2010. Wow! I need to work myself really hard to buy that one. It’s kinda expensive for me. Well, Santa, I wish you can hear me.

5. Socialize. Mingle. Be friendly. Get a boyfriend!

For real.
