What's on my desktop

Yeah I miss them! So to always remember their faces I put them on my desktop. :D VSO-ICS team VI021 definitely made an impact in my life- and I'm glad it did. For if I wasn't a part of it, I might still be closing all the doors of opportunities that come knocking on my way. :D

First week at Nueva Ecija

Assuming that all my requirements are done, my idea of going here was to work immediately,. But it didn't seem the way I expect it. And so, one day after arriving the HR told me that I still have pending matters to submit which I was quite surprised cause he didn't even reply to my text. And there, in my first two days, I found myself going back and forth from Muñoz to Philrice then Cabanatuan. It was an exhausting walk and patient waiting, just to get it all done. But I like travelling (which in here sounds like commuting hahaha), it gave me a chance to look around Cabanatuan that I've never been to. :D


I like places that implement plastic-free campaign. In Pacific Mall, Cabanatuan where I processed my requirements, I bought some stuff and they use paper bags. Quite delightful to know this, I've never been to a place that uses paper bags except from some parts of Quezon City, and my School in College. I wonder what it takes to do this in our own barangay! Haha!


And I began my first day of work. Hiyah!!! One of the bosses said that employees should also visit the field to be familiarized. Well, then I'm going to visit- but not this time. So I just took a picture of the road going to the field.


Above, is the road I usually walk on when going back and forth from work. :D 


Found this Japanese doll at my friend's office (I call him Takahashi). Isn't it cute??? (sorry for the blur picture). I always visit her office and stop by at this figure.


Apparently, rice isn't just a food subject. An artist from where I work found an amazing art out of rice grains. These tables consist of rice grains variety-filled into shapes. :D I asked about the price too, half the size of these two tables might cost 3000 Php. :D



This is just one of the pictures I took when I visited the Rice Museum. I think this painting gives us a clue of a chid-story right?? Ants and the grasshopper



This is a whole new different place. I was on my first week and my boss took me to travel related to the project I'm involved in. This dark view with city lights was in Angeles, Pampanga. This was on our first night.:D


Another view, this time,  from the top of the hotel building. I did make an effort to reach the top to get a view of this but I don’t think it is something that I did great!! Hahahaha (it is so blurry judging from a phone camera that I used). But I love the top of it, it is so calm and windy. It gave me time to think for a bit. :D


I didn't have a nice sleep on our first night. So I ended up waking up so early in the morning to see the sunrise. This is the view of the city from the room I'm staying in. :D The bluish mount Arayat can be seen from there. :D


A new place, also means new people to be with. So here are my newfound friends on our first night out together. :D
