As the old cliché goes, it is better late than never. As you can see, this post is intended for a Friday but due to geographical and time differences with my Blogging For Fun group mates, I was not able to post this on a Friday as their Friday is already Saturday here in the Philippines. Anyway, here is the group’s first activity, a weekly theme called Fun Friday.
Here are the 5 things about me:
1. I am still single but I currently have a girlfriend. We’ve been together for almost 2 years now. Her name is Donna but you can call her sexy too, lol.
2. I fear public speaking. When I was still a student, I always had butterflies in the stomach when I was called to speak in front of the class especially if I didn't do my assignments or I wasn't paying attention to the discussion.
3. I’m working in a call center in the Philippines and I’ve been with this company for 2 ½ years. Do I love my work? Hmm, let's move on to number 4.
4. When I was in college, I joined a youth activist group. I participated in rallies and protests against the government’s policies and actions. I still criticize the government from time to time but I already found a different medium.
5. Lastly, one of my childhood dreams was to become the president of the Philippines. I also dreamt of becoming a movie star, a rock star and a carpenter among others.
By the way, you can still join the fun and be part of the group. Join us at Blogging For Fun!
I am sorry, I did not even think of the geographical time differences. I will be sure to post the topic for Fun Friday on Thursdays. Thank you for participating, it was OK, right.

I hate public speaking too. I use to teach herbal classes for adult education class and everytime I did I was so nervous I thought I would barf.

# 3 was a revelation. :) I hope you can get to be happier in whatever you want to do, be it in the call center industry or in another business. :)
ReplyDeleteI missed the deadline too. I tend to plan posts out in advance which makes same day changes difficult.

It's okay, Melissa. I'll appreciate it if we can post the topic earlier so I will have more time to plan my posts. I had fun writing this post. Thanks for this great idea.
ReplyDeleteI read somewhere that based on one survey about people's fears, respondents ranked public speaking at number 1, even higher than death.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie. I will be looking forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteHi, Meryl. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Betchai. I had fun doing this post. As for the childhood dreams, I can only smile when I remember them.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm happy with my blogging activities:) It has been giving me positive wonders amidst the stress and pressure of my call center job.
ReplyDeletehaay. hate public speaking too. but i learned to deal with it. ngayon sabi ng classmate ko magaling daw ako mag-report. hehe
ReplyDeletePublic speaking doesn't bother me as much as it used to. I got over a lot of the fear when I worked at a college computer lab and would have to do instructional classes. Also teaching Sunday school for three years helped, too. Still public speaking is not an opportunity I would jump up and seize. ;)
