Convergys failed me.

April will be ending in seven (7) hours. The month that I gave to myself, at least after graduation, is ending soon. I can hear the clock ticking down as I write this entry. Just so I'll be re-oriented on how I spent the days after that big day in PICC, I am browsing through my planner [yes, now]. Let me see:

April 2: Baccalaureate Mass. FEU Ten Outstanding Senior Students 2008 also met with Dr. Lydia Echauz, Dr. Marcon Espino, Dr. Elizabeth Melchor and Dr. Marcon Espino, in the morning. It was immediately followed by a photo session.
April 3: I shopped for things I would be using the following day. Slept at Aunt Mau with mom.
April 4: Graduation day. The culmination of my life as a college undergrad. I received three medals which, without second thoughts, are gladly offered to my Mom. Tokens of gratitude are also offered to my dearest friends and organizations: Tamaraw Volunteers, Sandigan, IASSC 2006-2007, IAS Paragon Pioneers, Oradec Batch 2005, & College Y Club.
April 5: Grad Party. with neighborhood friends. I proceeded to the Ponkan's flat afterwards.
April 5-16: Sojourn at RM's flat with the Ponkans.
April 17: Bikini Open at Common Ground. Spent the night with FEU friends. A reunion of sort for the presidents of FEU university-wide organizations: Henz (FEU Theatre Guild), Bryan Angeles (FEU CYC) & I (FEU TAMVOL). We had fun night though I did not have a glimpse of the bikini open. Haha. Thanks to Samu, Tina, Kimpoin, Soul, Jam, Majo, Chie, Chub.
April 18-21: Bolinao, Pangasinan. After tossing a one-peso-coin, I finally decided to join with my family in my mom's provincial town, Bolinao. I enjoyed the company of my relatives, the seafoods, the sea, clean air. I don't, however, particularly like the attention given to me. Hehe.
April 22-23: at Aunt's house in Malabon.
April 23-24: I was alone in the house. Mom and sibs were still in the province. I had a general cleaning of both the physical and personal spaces [lol], worked on Annual Reports, and kept myself busy to be able to forget something. [ako na ang maarte!]
April 25-26: at Kuya Ago's. with Tony, Ren, Nerrie and Jophel. We planned for the TAMVOL Boot Camp 2008, the training for the newly-elected officers of the FEU TAMVOL, completed the line up of Team TAMVOL 0809, watched flicks, surfed the net.
April 27: A day with Ren, Tony and Nerrie. We attended mass at UST, watched Nike Summer League at the FEU Gymnasium
April 28: Ponkan Gimmick. Chumie Marga, Bunso RM, Chie, Nak Keiji & I watched 'Superheroes' at Trinoma, after NOT enjoying dinner at Pizza Hut [hehe, I abhor myself]. We had coffee after, my first time at SB-Tinoma. We slept over at RM's flat.
April 29: Applied at Convergys, and failed. Will elaborate on this later =)
April 30: TODAY. Still at RM's flat. Haven't left the place since morning (I usually don't). Just listened to American Idol playlist esp to David Archuleta's (I'm hearing a boo from Chie. Haha). Will's coming.

Well, to assess things, I could say that I just practically bummed through the April calendar. Nothing productive, except for the fact that we have been planning for the TAMVOL Leaders Boot Camp for May 9 to 11. Oh well, it's summer. I know, it's a lame excuse though.

CAREER UPDATE: Marga & I applied for Convergys yesterday. Guess what, we both failed. Hehe. Seriously. Overqualified daw kami. It's just sad coz I actually want to work na. Maybe, BPO is not just for us. Hay. I sent an application to the League of Corporate Foundation but I am still waiting for an e-mail or a call. I also learned that the Ateneo School of Government has a job opening suit for college student leaders-graduates. Might as well try it. Speaking of job hunting, I had a chat with good friend Ilo. I am happy knowing that he is now with the Presidential Taskforce for Education. I hope I could also found a job similar to that.

TOSP UPDATE: I have not heard anything about the TOSP NCR results. I went to OSACS the other day but I have not heard a word from Dr. Marcon. My hopes are low. Might as well forget about it. Hehe. My friend from Notredame in Mindanao told me that he is already a national finalist. I'm happy for him.
