Fun at the Park






Friday afternoon: This is after we get off work. We took the kids to a nearby park. They rode their bikes and my sister and I had time to talk about her pregnancy. We were on the swing for a while too. After that we went out to eat at TGIF.
Tomorrow will be another day. I dont know yet what I will be doing. Maybe I will prepare for my midterm exam since it is going to be just two weeks away. I also have another presentation for my International Management class that I have to prepare the powerpoint on. I might work on that too. My girlfriends and I are planning on going to the movies after their work tomorrow but I don't know. Maybe we might have to push that on Sunday after church.
I hope you all have a great weekend....


Getting ready for Summer



Two weeks ago after work, my sister dropped by the office. We then decided to get our hair done, put some highlights on. I had fun bonding with my sister. Look at her, she looks soooo tired waiting for the lady to finish putting the color on..LOL..Told her she should cut her hair so it would take shorter time but she does not listen..LOL
And here I am trying to take the heat from the dryer..LOL..Arghhhhh I was ready to fall asleep..LOL..But it was all worth it.


Adventure in the City




Last friday as I have mentioned in my prior post, we took a ride to the Manhattan to renew my sister's passport. The weather was perfect that time. It wasn't too cold and it wasn't too hot either. While driving downtown, I took some pics and I would like to share them with you.
Meet the lovers in New York..LOL... Does this look familiar to you guys?:) I hope so!!..LOL... This is outside the Philippine Consulate Office in Fifth Avenue. When you go down Fifth Avenue, it would appear to you as if you are in United Nations. This is where most of the consulate offices of different countries are located.

Blog Under Construction

I am soooo mad that all of my links are gone..woahhh!!!!...LOL..I am currently updating everything here guys, my blog is under construction. Please bear with me..It will be updated shortly (I HOPE)

Hello Fellow Bloggers

I feel kinda guilty that I have not updated this blog since last week. It has been a crazy week for me although I got some days off from work. I took some days off since I got four days carried over from last year. I had to take it before March ends but it has been too busy due to tax season, so I didn't take a leave till after april 15th. My son has been off from school too since Thursday till today. He will be back to school tomorrow and I will be back to reality also:)

Anyway, I did not accomplish anything for myself this weekend. I have helped my sister set up the baby's room since she is seven months pregnant. We went shopping for the baby. I handed her over my son's crib which can also turn into a day bed. I bought my son a new bed (Lightning McQueen of course).

Today, I went with my sister to the Philippine Consulate in Fifth Avenue to renew her passport. Gawd!! It feels like I was in the Philippines..LOL

New York has been having a great weather since last week. We hit 90's last week and everyone seemed to enjoy it. You should see my co-workers and I at lunch. We went out the bank and was just enjoying the sunshine outside..LOL

Well, I hope you all had a great weekend too and enjoy the week ahead.

In School

I am in school right now but since I got here pretty early, I stopped by the computer lab to check on my emails. I am pretty exhausted today. So much things to do at work. Thank goodness the tax season is over, that is a big relief for us!!! No more customers waiting in line to make contributions to their IRA.

We did a great sale today!!! About 20,000 in revenue to the branch. Thanks to my partners in business. Guess we are going to get a good payout. April seems to be a very busy month for us.

Anyway, I am just checking in. I will catch up with you all later.

Meet Samantha Julianne

Ladies and gentlemen, meet Samantha Julianne! The daughter of my Filipino friends here, Patrick and Mavie. My bestfriend Rochel and I gave her name. Mavie was at the hospital having labor when we were asking her what's gonna be the baby's name. She has a couple of names chosen but we brainstormed and Rochel wanted Samantha and since she was born in July, I gave her suggested Julianne. So we put the two together and got Samantha Julianne which I think is very nice:)

This is the first time Sam and Robert met. Actually this was my second time to see her also since the day she was born. We met them at the church one sunday and we planned to have lunch after the mass. We met up with them at City Island since everyone was craving for some seafood. Robert really loves Samantha. He keeps asking me if we can take her home..LOL




Sushi Anyone?!?!




Lately after school, a couple of my girlfriends from school and I go out for dinner since our class ends at 9:30. It is pretty late and to have a big dinner would be a torture. So we have been hooked with eating sushi..yummm!!!!




Here is a great presentation of "I Su Yuki Roll" ...Tuna, salmon, avocado and some seaweed.


Mouth watering aye?!!

My baby..


My baba!!! I just love him sooo much. He is the reason why I am still breathing and why I stick around:)
He is the reason, the sole reason of my existence. My baby, My joy, My pride, My soul.
I love you baby!!!









My son turned 5

Last April 8th, my son turned 5! OMG, I am getting older:)

He was so happy on his birthday. We bought him a cake and brought it to his school for his classmates and teachers to share. We really did not do anything on his birthday since both of us were working. We booked a party at McDonald's with his friends and classmates last Sunday and the kids seem to enjoy it. It was chaos there!..LOL

I felt bad for the crew in McDonald's and the other customers who had to listen to the kids as they scream out loud.lol

It was a very nice party. He got what he wanted. Bought him a scooter and better batter baseball which he saw on TV. He got some presents from his friends as well. It was wonderful.

And the winner is!!!

Last night was the awards nite for Westchester, Connecticut and Bronx-Westchester Districts for the company. It was very nice and very different than the awards nights in the previous years.It was held at the Marriott Hotel. At 5 in the afternoon, there was a cocktail set up for the employees. At 7 the nite has started. The stage was beautifully set with golden pillars, as last night's theme of the celebration.

I am happy for those I know and worked with that got some awards. I also got nominated as a Consumer Banker of the year based on my sales points last year. I did not win tho. Which is fine. It was my first year being a consumer banker last year and to be nominated and being the TOP 3 Consumer Banker in my district is pretty big accomplishment.

My branch ended up to be the last one on stage since we finished # 1 in the District!! Wooohooo!! Actually, I should not be on that stage since I was not with them last year. i just joined them beginning this year but my manager said, You are with us now, you are part of us!! So I went with them on stage. I was with this branch since I started working for the bank five years ago but I left as I got promoted last year and came back to them this January.

I am so proud of the tellers also! I have handled four branches in Westchester and coached them to be better customer service representatives. Out of five outstanding tellers in the District, three of them were from the branches I handled. So I am Soooo Proud of that.

My boss finished the Best Financial Advisor of the Year!!! Wooohooooo!! I will make sure he gets on that stage next year again and that means, we have to write more and more business!!..LOL

My boss gave me a ride home and we just laughed all the way home. That was because all the big bosses, starting with the regional president, district leaders, sales leaders and Financial Advisors Regional Managers were all dressed up with an Internation Theme. And the best one there was our Regional Sales Manager who was dressed up as he is from the UK. He has this wig and the outfit was just very funny.LOL
