training day #3

SAMS day 2 :)
i came in 30 minutes late hehehe i also found a new friend! her name is jam and well, we ate lunch, spent the breaks together and strolled around gateway after the training. :)

i have a classmate who is 5'8" tall, is only 17 years old and looks like sandara park. awesome height. she's like the tallest in class! XD

just a segway, sorry. hehe

anyway, while in gateway...we visited 2 free art exhibits! one was called Festival, by the UP almuni assoc and the other one was i dunno, i forgot. >___>;;

here are some paintings from Festival:


done using watercolor. this is pretty awesome! got me inspired! :D


pretty girl. :) though she doesn't seem very filipina. it's supposed to be an exhibit with a theme, philippine festivals. but anyway, she's the prettiest naman. haha and look at the details of her top mehn! great artist


this one is my favorite! it looks like a photograph from afar and when you see it personally, she looks so real. so, err, 3D! hehe ang galing talaga eh!


the colors look richer in person. parang may metallic effect pa sya. cool


isa pang coooooooool! XD

catch Festival at 3/f Gateway Mall, Cubao. you pass by the restrooms at the food court area and you'll end up at the gallery! :D they're up until may 31.

the other exhibit, i really don't know how it's called basta it's just in Gateway, i guess it's at the 4th floor (cinemas) near the Mandarin Suites main entry (not the showroom), malapit din yta sa Globe Premiere Cinema (i only learned about it right now!!! astig pala dun! 300+ pesos, free unlimited drinks and popcorn). oha

training day #2

yesterday was PCTC, today was SAMS (sales analysis and management systems??? or sales and management systems? dammt i suck)

i really love the trainors at cubao. they're all good looking and they're all effective speakers. we had a new trainor this morning but right this afternoon we resumed to our previous trainor. yes, the one i'm crushing on. lol

yesterday i was excited about the whole insurance concept, how it's not just about death benefits but also about savings, protection, investment and blaaaah. but upon being oriented with a single product...specifically the A&H or the Accident and Health product, i instantly got a headache. damnit, i get the drill! i just hate the figures.

and it's funny how the details were told (narrated and role-played as well by our dear trainor ♥). you get a hand dismembered and you get 50% of the principal value, you accidentally got both of your hands chopped off and you get 100% of the PV. a single ear earns you 50% of your PV. both ears equals 100%. same goes for the feet and eyes. so imagine if that program existed some centuries ago, Van Gogh could have had his lost ear covered. stuff like that. i was mentally laughing why it has to be so exagerrated but then i realized that the name of the product has a term 'Accident'.

btw, because of this whole day training for a week, i am left with no choice but to eat fastfood during lunch! dammit. i'll probably be gaining a lot of weight after this week.

ok. i just stalked him at friendster! found his account. including his wife LOL

super sry. you know how i am with new found crushes. hehe

hey!

i've deleted yanbirog.blogspot.com and melodia04.blogspot.com
i'm back to blogging here at this address.

i know it's confusing! it confused me like hell too! i 've already imported all the entries from my previous blog so hopefully this'll stay for real.

o.O;

i've actually figured out a way to transfer blog ownership to a different email account. yey XD
thanks google. that's what i've given up on doing before i started at yanbirog

livejunk is where the juice is now, k?

training day #1

i woke up really early this day, 7am!!! yeah, that's already too early for a bum like me.

then i went to Philamlife Cubao at Gateway to attend the PCTC (pre-contractual??? training course). for a first timer like me, it was kinda hard...but it was one hell of enlightenment for me to finally get acquainted with the mob of insurance terms i hear from my parents all the time. it got me really interested with insurance! haha

i learned that life insurance isn't all about leaving money behind to your loved ones in case of you dying! :) on the contrary, it's one heck of a good investment means! better than the bank and stocks yo! believe me! :D

try me for an appointment and i'll share everything i've learned! :D this is probably one of the biggest breakthroughs in the liquid investment industry. usually, we tire ourselves working just to earn money. but with insurance, we put our money to work for US and at the same time, our beneficiaries! not the other way around. :) this is a good way to save up for emergency money issues, and ultimately your RETIREMENT.

hehehe, i was with ate cel the whole day :), we ate lunch at gateway. man, i ate a freakin looooot! XD

btw, our trainor was handsome! :D but he's 26 and is ardy married hehehe i was observing him and found a ring on his left hand! and also, when he was citing illustrations to us, he used a pretty uncommon girl's name so i thought "aaaah, she must be the wife"

turned out i was right.
nice observation-assumption skills huh? hehehe

and he's wearing a cool high-collared black jacket from Arrow.
uhh, yeah, i'm a sucker for tall, lean men in black jackets. LOL

my observation-slash-mental-stalking didn't end there. i have another silly assumption about him. he likes star trek! he's mentioned the fandom twice and also said something about alien invasion, which struck me hard.

i love world domination too sir, why don't we just rule the world together?
he's a geek! i can feel it.

i have geek sensors, btw.

sinking fund

i drew that for the org newsletter which i think won't get published anytime soon. tsk tsk tsk. it's an editorial cartoon that tackles one of the main problems of the organization: money, folks!

i did a bit of research on how to create editorial cartoons (cos it's my first time to do so) and found out that a maximum of 3 objects are preferred in a frame and symbolisms are a must. i also looked for photo references, so thanks to google images and pugad baboy :)

i thank you, if you do get what i'm trying to say with the drawing.

no gym for a week

man, i'm wasting my money by not going to the gym!

tomorrow until friday, i'll be attending a training seminar about insurance. then i'll be taking the insurance chorvaloo exam, get licensed and prolly sell insurance as a sideline. LOLOLOLOLOL. i'm doing this because of my parents but it's kinda interesting as well. :D because of this, my mom bought me 2 new tops so that i'll get to look presentable...at least. we're supposed to buy pants but we ended up buying shirts instead because they're cheaper, the pants will have to wait until we can pay a visit to divisoria. hihihi :) i really really want to buy new pants because i only have one decent pair of denims, the others were either too loose or too old or too old that's why it became loose. hm..

then, my sister and i will pursue driving lessons sometime this year, prolly not later than june? hehe i need to drive already. srsly. :D

and also, we want to register as voters in preparation for the upcoming elections. ftr, my parents' last voted during the time of marcos and well, my sister and i are going to be first time voters if ever.

still still listening to the Boys Over Flowers OST. you know how awfully addicted i can become with OSTs. ♥
