One Month With You!!

It still feels unreal to me that we’re already celebrating our first month together. Sometimes I just stop and think about how fast everything happened, and I end up smiling because I get to call you mine. I’m really excited for what’s about to come for us in the next months, and honestly, when I think about the future, I always see you in it. I really want you there.

What I love most about being with you is your comfort and your presence. You don’t have to do anything big or special. Just having you there already means so much to me. I appreciate everything you do, especially the way you always make time for me. Every time you make me feel appreciated, it reminds me how lucky I am to have you.

I keep recalling our calls where we eat together, when you sing for me, and of course, our sleep calls. Those moments stay with me more than you know. In those times, I feel so loved and so safe. You make things feel easy, and being with you feels really good.

I’m so proud of you for showing up for everything in your life and giving your best, even when it’s hard. I hope you know how amazing you are. I might not always know how to say everything properly, but I hope you feel how grateful I am for you. For everything you do, for every message you send, and for the way you choose me every day. I just want you to know that I’m always here for you, no matter what.

 I’m really looking forward to making more memories with you. I want to be there as you achieve all of your dreams, to congratulate you, celebrate with you, and be proud of you every step of the way. Happy first monthsary, my Keira.

''Be the woman you would look up to''

Hello, everyone! This is Emy and I'm currently a graduating grade 12 student at MCA Montessori School, and I created this blog to share my ten-day OJT experience at Barangay South Signal Barangay Hall under Public Employment Service Office (PESO).

A little about Em (me)

A consistent honor student who's really ambitious, driven, and passionate about learning, and especially when it comes to leading. I enjoy leading because it gives me the opportunity to inspire others, just as I aspire to be seen: as someone who is confident, hardworking, and dedicated. Other than learning, I also have a passion for fashion and pageantry. I just love how both allows me to express myself creatively while embracing confidence. These passions, along with my dedication to learning and leading, shows who I am and what I strive to be. Oh, I almost forgot to tell you guys that I want to become a successful chef that owns a restaurant in the future. I hope I can fulfill that dream! 💗

first day! 🎀

Here's how my first day of OJT went!

Our call time was 7 AM, so I woke up at 3 AM to get ready. I left home at 6 AM—yes, it takes me hours to prepare (I'm just a girl). I was already nervous by that time because it was already 6 AM, and I was still far from my workplace. I was exhausted even before our work began. I live in Barangay Ususan, but I got assigned to Barangay South Signal, and I didn’t even know how to get there. I had to ask my classmates 😭.

Luckily, I arrived at around 6:30 AM. I checked the barangay hall, but I didn’t see any of my coworkers. So, I decided to go to McDonald's to buy an iced coffee because I was super sleepy at that time. After getting my coffee, I went back to the barangay hall and finally saw two of my classmates, Nelson and Echo! It was already 7:30, and our supervisor had just arrived. She told us we had to divide into two groups: A.M. and P.M. sessions. My classmates and I chose the P.M. session because we wanted to stick together, and I also have a hard time waking up early.

I was surprised because we didn’t actually do much that day. Our supervisor just gave us an orientation about what we’d be doing in PESO. She also explained the rules and dress code we need to follow; she told us to wear black tomorrow (I don't have any black-colored clothes that are not revealing😭). She dismissed us early, saying our work would start on our second day. Before going home, I treated myself  Llao Llao, a little reward for surviving my first day of OJT. Like they say,  "Celebrate the little things."

second day! 🎀

Challenging Second Day

Today marks the real start of my On-the-Job Training! Our supervisor informed us that the call time for PM sessions is at 12 noon. I started getting ready at 9 AM—super early, right? If you remember from my last blog, I mentioned that I don’t have any black clothes that don’t show too much skin. So, I had to get ready early to find something suitable for work!

I left the house at around 10:55 AM and arrived at my workplace exactly at 12 noon. Right on time! Our supervisor arrived an hour later, at 1 PM. She handed us the attendance sheet to fill out and then gave my coworkers and I a task: to distribute 10 survey questionnaires to people aged 18 and above. The survey was about employment, and we also had to provide pictures as proof.

This task was a big challenge for me because, honestly, I’m super shy when it comes to approaching people. I’m the type of person who waits for others to make the first move in conversations. But with the help of my classmates that is also my coworkers, Nelson and Echo, I managed to gather some responses. We spent the day roaming around Arca South, searching for people willing to answer our survey.

I felt so shy and embarrassed whenever someone turned us down. But guess what? I did it! I managed to get all 10 surveys answered. Thanks to my family and friends who answered the survey LOLLL

third day! 🎀

Third Day in OJT

This day is not as challenging like yesterday. My supervisor told me to check the answers on the survey and she gave me a notebook where I have to write their responses. After doing paper works, the barangay staffs were asking for help to carry some things because the new materials for Ballecer Court have arrived. We successfully carried it, and they asked us if they can take a picture of us with the materials. Oh, we also did a video greet saying thank you to the mayor for sponsoring the materials. There's nothing really exciting that happened this day, our supervisor even allowed us to sleep. 😜

fourth day! 🎀

Fourth Day of OJT

As usual, I started getting ready at 9 AM and left home by 11 AM. I was really hoping we’d do something more challenging and fun today. But guess what? We ended up doing paperwork again!!! My hand hurts from all the writing I had to do, but I have no choice but to endure it since it’s part of my job. 😭

After finishing my work, Ms. Christine, our supervisor, mentioned that the barangay is hosting an event tomorrow. She said we need to be at Ballecer Court by 11 AM, tomorrow. I felt so excited and couldn’t help but wonder about what we'll do tomorrow!
