A Teacher's Diary

Chasing Dreams

November 10, 2014

Monday

They were busy with printing cards. And I'm only busy doing my Lesson Plan. Thank goodness I don't have an advisory class.

T. Jenn didn't show up today. I had to take her Filipino 2 and Science 1. But time passed by so fast, it wasn't a big deal except that I ate my brunch super late like I didn't eat at all. It's only a good thing that I consumed a chicken noodle soup earlier.

I was being chosen to be KC's coach in the Pasiklaban. I also need to train him with Filipino topics and other trivias. And it's already on Thursday. Oh crap. I'm sure KC would not like me to be his coach. I don't even know how that competition works. -_-

Also, an agent phoned me saying they have a credit card application promo on going and I was referred by Sheila. The agent who introduced herself as Tina, thought I'm Ray April Bravo so I corrected her and informed her I am a different person. All the more, she proceeded with explaining how the promo works and asked for my name. She got some of my personal information so I was thinking if it's fraud or will be used against me in the future. I just want to be careful. She said if my application will be approved, I will get a gift from them with either of the two: a Samsung phone or a Timex watch. Oh. Appealing.

"Once again this is THINA on behalf of EASTWEST BANK. I would like to remind you po regarding sa atleast 5-7 personal referrals(full name & contact number) kindly send nalang po today para ma i-attach ko na po sa application nyo.. and also regarding to the requirements 1 valid i.d, 1 month latest payslip &3 specimen signature kindly send it to ew5@gracall.net or maria.crstina_19@yahoo.com & kindly attention po sa name ko Ms. Thina. Thanks & Godbless..."

Tina explained what's going to happen. That upon submitting the requirements, it will be processed for approval. And according to her, it may take 3-4 weeks. I told her I am not interested with credit cards but she insisted the promo and told me once you're approved, it depends on you if you want to activate the card or not. Oh geez. I have BDO credit cards and American Express which I haven't used at all.

They said Sir TJ and the V.P.'s visited and they had a meeting. I wasn't there again so I asked what was being discussed. One of it was that our Security Bank payroll will be changed to Union Bank.

I gave a homework to the grade 1 pupils. "Bring a picture that you are willing to give to be put on a scrapbook that shows a place you have visited." And then, a part of me is saying that there's something wrong with my grammar. I added the to be put on a scrapbook and it seemed all the more confusing but then since the pupils were done copying, I let it go.

Teachers Donna, Riza and I decided to eat grilled hotdog since we're very hungry. Riza also bought hamburger and egg sandwich for both of us. I added 2 sticks of isaw for myself.

While Riza waited for our sandwich (she's in the store where we mostly order our food for lunch), Donna and I were together in the ihawan waiting for the inihaw we ordered. Donna and I talked about something naughty could we exhange on Friday. She told me her idea and I was like, "Is that already naughty?" I also remembered the codename and the wishlist for the special exchange gift.

When Riza arrived, we ate our food before we all separate ways.

Conversation with Alex thru Messenger started at 7 PM:
