My first dose of ‘actual’ (small) networking…

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

Yeah, that’s right, first dose of ‘actual’ networking (small).

Been dealing with computers for 9 years now. Built some, burnt some, fixed some, made money from it, wasted money sometimes. But this time, it is a breakthrough for me. “Networking”. The kind of stuff I am reading for the past few months now, but never really laid hand on it (on my own).

Tired….

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

Yes, I am tired.

I work in a call center, my shift starts at 11:00pm manila time (9am CST).

My travel from home to work is approximately 1 and 1/2 upto 2 hours. Same with going home.

I work 8 hours (night shift) plus 30 minutes overtime (sometimes, depending on the volume of calls).

I am away from home at least 12 hours (2 way travel and work).

Upon getting home from work (of course tired and sleepy), I have to take care of my baby for at least 2 hours until my wife comes from work (she’s a preschool teacher).

So, I will go to sleep at around 12:30 or 1:00 pm. Then, I have to wake up at 7pm to prepare for work, leave house at 8pm, arrive at workplace at around 10pm… which would make my total time spent away from home 13 hours.

I work from Monday evening to Saturday morning…  every weekends, I try to spend time with my family. Sunday morning, church.

That’s why I’m physically tired, mentally exhausted, but my heart is happy…

Places I had been….

My Lakbayan grade is F!

How much of the Philippines have you visited? Find out at Lakbayan!

Created by Eugene Villar.

My grade is “F”. Failed!…. It hurts, but it is true.

I’ve been only to some places in my home country, The Philippines…

Maybe I should plan some trips next year, when my child is big enough for long travels…

Starting a Home Business…

Friday, February 1st, 2008

It’s hard…

I am planning to start a home business, but I have lots of problem with it (usual problems people have when starting a small business).

First of all is,  what kind of business should I establish. I haven’t yet surveyed my place for any info on what our community might need.

Next is budget. This will depend on the first one.

Whoever that might drop by this blog, if you knew something about business (just small, home business), please leave some comments and tips…

Thank you….
