...Fun @ Eat Bulaga...

Last Sunday, June 28, at Bankerohan Gym, few of the hosts of Eat Bulaga went to Davao to conduct the Karambola sa Kabayanan, a summer special show which gives fun to the people around Philippines. And luckily the last town they wnt is Davao City..

Actually, my whole family is really a big Kapuso Fan, especially there noon time show, Eat Bulaga. I really like Joey de Leon and Jose Manalo. So my mother and I decided to join the show that time. Infairness, malayo ang Bankerohan since that taga Buhangin kami. When we arrived at the place, me and my mother went directly sa gym. Hindi kasi naman alam na bibili pa pala kami ng tickets to get it. We supposed to buy any of the sponsors; Rebisco Biscuits, Sunsilk, Maggi, Tiki-tiki, Alaxan, and Eight Oclock. Since we dont have any plans to eat lunch, dinamihan na lang namin ang pagbili ng Bicsuits. Nakapasok kami sa gym around 10am. Then that time, the EMCEE was picking contestants in the parlor games. And my mom luckily joined in. Funny lang masyado kasi she was dancing the Kagat Labi dance and stepped up sa chair para makita lang siya ng EMCEE. Thanks to the idea of a guy na nagturo sa kanya para umakyat sa silya. And luckily, nanalo ang group ni mama sa sack race ala namamalengke style. She won P1000 and a Maggi products, TShirt and a mug.

What really funny thing happened that day all happened to me ofcourse. Since kami lang dalawa ni mama ang nagpunta sa place, I joined into a group of people I don't know. I thought na magkakakilala sila, hindi rin pala. Ajejeje. But what was funny is during the time na naghahanap ang EMCEE ng mag-asawang pair for the Pinoy Henyo game. And I love watching that game kaya nagahanap me ng partner. Tinapik ko yung guy na di ko kakilala and asked if we could be a couple for that time. Natakot kasi siya kasi mag-asawa ang hinahanap. Baka daw kasi hanapan kami ng marraige certificate. Then I agreed to him lang naman. But, there were no married couple na lumapit, so the EMCEE decided to call out all mag-syota lang. I was texting that time then all of a sudden kinuha niya ang kamay ko and handed me towards the center aisle. Meaning, nagkaroon ako bigla ng syota for that day. What was funny is that noong nasa gitna na kami nagpakilala with each other. The guy is game about it. During the interview portion, ako lang ang sumasagot noong tinanong na kami about us, where did we meet and when naging kami. Funny thing, noong June 12 lang naging kami. Shocking noh. After the game one of the host of Eat Bulaga asked us to kissed each other. That's the time na kinabahan na talaga ako. And what I answered was "anjan mama ko". But then, pinilit pa rin kami nung host to the kiss, pinagbigyan na lang. Charut. He did kissed me, but not on the lips, sa cheeks lang. Sayang noh?? Joke lang. But unfortunately, we didn't win the game. And after the show, I was laughing all the time because I had a 6hours boyfriend.

The show was fun, especially when my mama won one of the games. Nakakain kami ng lunch around 5 pm , lunch pa yan. And whats really nice about it is that, kasali na yung nagka-syota ako bigla, joke, really, its about having new friends. Ang dami ko kasing nakilala that time eh.

Till next Kapuso Fans Day!!

...my pOints Of viEw...

Insourcing is not that kind of different word for me. Since we tackled this during our Management Information Systems subject. Literally, insourcing means doing a certain job inside or within the comprise of a certain organization. Before, as we tackled about this matter, it was been discussed that the University is using Outsource Programming. The difference of it is that the programmer in insource works inside the campus unlike outsourcing, the programmer works outside the campus. It was been said that outsource is more appropriate for Universities.

But first tackling about insourcing, let me first discuss about the benefits of outsourcing. I have read an article about benefits of outsourcing. First there is an increase of the business. It was quoted in there that, “another benefit of outsourcing is seeing a big increase in your profits, productivity, level of quality, business value, business performance and much more. Outsourcing can help you see an increase in almost every aspect of your business. Outsource and see your organization experience an increase in every aspect with these benefits of outsourcing”. Next is that it guarantees the customer's satisfaction. In outsourcing, the programmer develops it and well do his job according to the need of the business or the user. It then guarantees that the job is done on time and delivered it to the customer on the day the customer suggested it to be delivered. The other one is that the business can concentrate more on the core business. Meaning the University can then manage the campus accordingly without any trouble on thinking for what might happened on the work he wants to accomplish. “By outsourcing all your non-core functions, your employees can be put to better use and you will be able to see a huge growth in your core business”. Then lastly, it gives the business a competitive edge. Since that it was made outside, the programmer has its own idea on how to deal your business not far level from your competitors. It deals on what's new on the outside world, and deals also on what might be the possible effect on it on the later part. That might actually be the reason why USEP uses outsourcing resources be fore.

But then again, the question is, what would be the possible reasons why the University tapped Insourcing from Outsourcing. Still, there are benefits about Insourcing. And these reasons might be the reasons why did the University jumped to Insourcing from Outsourcing. First, it reduces cost. The cost of an Insource professional can be lesser than of an Outsource Professional. As far as I'm concerned with the University, the big concern of it is to reduced cost in any way. But to my view, the Insource Professionals hired by the University can also be competed to those Outsource Professionals based on there skills. I'm not saying this because there were my Instructors before, but I'm saying this because in reality they were really good. But as to my complain as well, the exchanged of it is thrown to us. Next benefit of Insourcing is that it can increased professionals by 2 or more with the cost similar to a single outsourcing. In a short way, the University can really lessen its cost. The other benefit of Insourcing is the direct management. They can hands-on control the development and cycle of the project. The management can really implies what he really wants fir the project and can manage it accordingly. Another one is turnkey services. According to what I have read, “In-Source provides a turnkey solution including facilities, recruitment, human resource management, payroll and benefits administration, tax filings, and communication tools, so you can spend more time focused on your core business”. It also reduce operational expenses. It can also extend productivity time. Since that the professionals is within the University, the management can easily contact the professionals to shift or overlap the working time to create the project lesser on time. And since Insourcing can lessen the cost, it also increase the company's profit. I believe that University acquires more employee now than of last year, and because of that, they really need to drop expenses in any manner they can do.

Really, it was a big surprise last year, second semester that our Instructors withdraws there teaching time to create the new system that was used last enrollment. For creating the new system that was being used during this enrollment really gives me a headache. Arranging the new windows and the new enrollment system really gives me a hard time pointing what to do next. But honestly, it was an easy new routine. Though the only new about it is the registrars line. But then it was not that good for freshmen though I think they did the enrollment for three days or more. The system was a bit nicer compare to the old one, but the idea of Insourcing is not that nice for me.

For me, it was not that really a good idea to have an insource. Since that the professionals on it are teachers. The more affected results on it are the students. It doesn't really lessen the cost or the expenses, for me, it was really the reason of jumping. But then again, by looking for it, the University needs another instructors to cater the need for the students. Then, if they really want to lessen the cost and expenses of the University, why don't they try to minimize the expanding of buildings, creating of new one then never did finished. The only thing I see was already fully furnished is the fence. Why don't they try to think not only for there own benefits but to the student's benefit. One thing, there not the one walking and running back and forth to the school, its the student who do those things.

...My ReActiOn oN LAdy's PoSt...

It was quiet funny remembering what our Professor told us about our blog entries. Its jokes, poems, or love stories. And after how many months without publishing anything in this blog, here I’ am, commenting on what my friend said and this time, about Love. What's new by the way?

Isn't it really wonderful hearing the words of Love. But sometimes it overused. That even a person don’t have something feelings on someone, he/she can use it. Like what Lady said, Love is magic. Magic pala talaga, how I wished I know how that magic can be used properly. But so much for that. She said that once you are in love, you can violate laws and rules. True. But why is it like that?? Why once we are in love, we are blinded by our own feelings?? Why is it that we only feels the happiness and not the risk by getting hurt?? Sad but true. Whew. The one speaking this words, I mean ME, pretends that she never did do those things before. Well, actually, I did. It's just, I’m just as weak as other person, and tend to pretend strong, and tend to pretend that I learned even though I keep on doing those same things again and again. It's just sound true to me but in the end, once I let myself feel the same feelings again, it's over and done. All the things I thought I learned will automatically vanish.

She also said that forgiving and forgetting always accompanies love. Meaning, that even the awful thing one person could do for you as long as you love that person, never really matters. What matters is that the person accepts his/her mistake/s, ask for forgiveness and promise that he/she won’t do that again. But what if that person did the same thing twice, thrice, or many times already. When do really loves occur?? When do really loves still can be called as love?? When can a certain person proves to that someone that she/he loves that someone?? When does heart can forgive and forget?? Kailan ba ang limitation ng pusong magpatawad at the same time, kailan ba ito magsasawa?? If you really love that someone, will the heart tend to forgive even though its too much pain is at risk?? Even though you look stupid behind it.

Im not sayin that I never did tried forgiving the person I love from my past. But in return, he did betray me for doing the same things again behind my back. In that case, I tend ti think for myself. Its better getting hurt by losing that person than receving much pain from that same person. I don't believe in the saying that there are many fishes in the ocean. Kasi kahit gaano pa karami ang isda sa dagat, you will never tend to teach your heart whom to fell in love with. React?? Again, I dont believe that there is someone out on the traffic light who is deserving to each one of us. For me, each has the capability and capacity to be the right one. But if he/she is never meant for you, it will never be even if how hard you tried on it. And lastly, I dont believe in DESTINY. Kung sa text nga, if destiny mo is not so so likely creature, can you accept it?? But then again, well never know, malay mo, siya talaga ang para sayo. If someone comes along, I believe it has a reason. And that reason can be answered if you worked things out together

I remember one text message from a friend. Being with someone you have right now is not by DESTINY, it’s a choice. Its not also that destiny decides who you fell in love with. It’s your choice. Its the choice between two people that relationships last. Its they're choice to work with it, fight for it, and to make it last. If one relationship fails, it the choice of one of the two to let ot fail. Its not only that love last the relationship. Love binds them and get into a relationship. Cause for me, love fades, no matter how great it is.
