    6 hours before the concert.

    butterflies in my stomach.

    cold sweat.

    nervous attack.

    but it's not about us Lord; it's ALL for YOU.

    may YOU be glorified with our praises tonight.

    **excited lang ako!!! :p**

    yesterday, i met with yna and her friends at sm valenzuela for the first meeting of our cell group.

    yna approached me last sunday and asked if i could help her out in starting a cell group with her

    friends. of course i agreed. i mean, i miss being with her and with my original cell group

    (caloocan/valenzuela/binondo group). she told me afterwards that she has been praying for this

    group to happen ever since so i'm glad that i was given the opportunity to reach out and share theword with her friends, and also to help yna to develop as a leader. the church in valenzuela willbe open soon and i believe that God is preparing her to be one of the leaders in their youth group.

    i'm glad i could be a part of the church planting project in valenzuela with a simple task as this -

    helping out and assisting her. i know she can do it coz i've seen her lead sunday school and she

    has also been leading cell group discussions back when we were still groupmates in carecell.

    i'm excited with what the Lord's doing for the valenzuela group. i'm glad our church has stepped

    out in faith and heeded God's call to go out and share the word.

    *thanks din pala ke lawrence for going with me yesterday, kht may prelims go padin. i guess we

    both realize that this is the KAIROS moment for yna and her friends.

    **firebrands christmas concert this saturday! can't wait! i've never been this excited ever since

    apaw tradition started. :p something GOOD is going to happen.

    i need a break!! 6 months as a working girl stresses me out! unfortunately, i cant rest as much as

    i want coz i'm working full time plus other responsibilites outside work are waiting for me. but

    you know what? i enjoy having lots of things to do. coz it's not the work that's stressing me out.

    it's the PEOPLE around me. i just pray for God's love to overflow through me so i can deal with

    these people better.

    *senti mode*

    i miss my high school days.

    Sunday, July 23, 2006

    it's been four weeks since i started working here at hchs. it's a great learning experience. at the

    same time, it's nice to get paid to do the things i love - layouting, making videos, taking pictures,

    etc. and it's really a nice feeling every time my superiors appreciate my work.

    i thank God for giving me the wisdom and creativity that i need to excel in this job.

    last week, 3 of the congratulatory banners i made were put up outside the school. it's a dream

    come true - for people to see the "fruits of my labor" and actually appreciate it.

    this week, i made a memorial video for our late former principal, Ms. Gregoria Go Beltran. she

    was the principal from 1970-1997. my boss told me that her relatives, as well as other people,

    were touched by it.

    it's a weird feeling, coz Ms. Beltran was the principal when i first entered HCHS as a nurserystudent, and of course back then, i didnt know that i would be the one doing her memorial video..

    it makes me sad just thinking about it. atleast, i'm sure that she's with the Lord now.

    CAPTAI SMALLVILLE

    MAY 26, 200610:35pm

    i've just seen the trailer of GMA's new teleserye, Captain Barbell, and i have to say i was

    annoyed with what they did. why? coz it's OBVIOUSLY COPIED FROM SMALLVILLE. as in

    obviously obvious!! the makers of the show doesnt know the meaning of subtle.

    what they copied from smallville:1. krypton

    2. kryptonite

    3. kryptonian symbols

    4. clark coming to earth in a spaceship

    5. clark found by the kents

    6. kent's red truck7. clark holding up a tractor

    8. clark saving lex luthor9. clark ripping off the car door (of lex)

    10. clark's friends chloe & pete

    11. lana's mannerism of hugging herself when she's upset.12. clark pounding the wood in the ground for their fence

    and that's only from the trailer. eew. super no originality. it's so pathetically trying hard. cant

    they have a concept of their own to work with? couldnt they have twisted the plot a little bit?

    *i'll keep my eyes open for more copying (PLAGIARISM as my dad said) -- it wouldnt be hardto do that, considering the extent of their obviousness.

    may 27, 200610:30am

    saw Capt. Barbell's trailer again.

  • 8/14/2019 Your Daily Dose of Zarahness-120605-121706

    8/21

    more obvious scene stealings:

    13. lana's braided hairstyle (Ok i admit this is not that obvious since a braid is not that

    uncommon.. but still!)

    14. kent's farm

    15. chloe's hidden desire for clark16. chloe's message to clark: "there's someone out there for you"

    duh...

    may 28, 2006

    in philstar's entertainment section, richard gutierrez was featured by ricky lo for some Q&A's.

    there were some pics from their new series, the ever-famous capt.barbell.

    i noticed (again) that lana's hairstyle, the half pony thing, was also copied by the leading lady.

    eew.. that makes it obvious scene stealing #17.

    Saturday, May 20, 2006

    the interview with mr. young went well. thank you Lord for your favor. i have a pretty strong

    feeling that i'm in. i hope. i have a good feeling about this; i have peace when i think of workingat hchs, unlike when i think of working at pageshop. at accenture, it's okay, but i'm worried

    because of the schedule and the distance of the workplace to where i live -- very inconvenient.and the work is NOT related to what i've learned in college. working at hope will be a great

    experience because i get to practice what i've learned at UST. i will also be doing what i love

    most -- writing and venturing into publication (as the job would require me to write news

    releases, make brochures, banners, promotional gimmicks,etc. -- very IMC-ish.) i really hope i

    get to work there. i SO WANT TO BE A MARKETING ASSISTANT FOR HCHS coz i LOVEthe nature of the work that i'll be doing.

    i'm being redundant, i'm sorry. i'm just SOOOOO excited and so amazed because i can really feel

    God's hand working in my life.

    for months now, i've been praying that God would SHOW ME WHERE HE WANTS ME TOWORK, coz i know that that's the only place where i'll be most fulfilled. applying at pageshop

    and at accenture brought about different emotions within me. i DO NOT want to work at

    pageshop -- i dont feel comfortable working there, i dont know why. i just dont feel that it's

    where God wants me to be.

    for my accenture application, i felt okay, but not really excited about it, coz i know that workingthere would require me to compromise my time for ministry -- and i certainly dont want that

    because working for a secular job is just second priority for me. i'm not trying to sound holier-

    than-thou here. it's what i believe in. cutting me off with my church ministries would seem as if i

    lost a part of me. i mean i grew up in church, working and serving God, and no matter what job

    comes, it would ave to be second compared to my service for God. GOD COMES FIRST IN MY

    LIFE!!!

    this job offer from hchs is a miracle in itself. i sent out my resume to hchs during the last week of

    april. i applied for a teaching position (as an English and Bible teacher) but i didnt expect a call

    from them because as you notice, it's already too late for them to get a new teacher, with the start

    of the school year just a month away. so imagine my surprise when i received a call from ma'am

    tina. she told me that instead of working there as a teacher, i could work there as a marketing

    assistant, since i'm a comm arts graduate. upon reflecting on this surprising offer, i realized thatGod is working in my life. i mean, i could have gone to ifugao with the other youth members for

    the mission trip, but i didnt. it turned out to be a blessing because if i went with them, i wouldnt

    be able to accept the offer. ( i understand it's not yet final that i'm working there, but just allow

    me to speak in faith, okay? coz i REALLY want this job!) another thing is that i didnt know thata job as a mktg.asst. actually exists in hchs. so being offered to do something that i LOVE doingis a miracle from God. every prayer meeting, kim's (my prayer

    partner) prayer for me is that i'll have a job where i'll be able to enjoy the tasks i'm given.

    so in short, this job-hunting experience taught me this lesson: when you pray, EXPECT GOD toanswer (just make sure that you're praying for His will to happen). dont lose hope or be

    discouraged if you think that God is taking His time answering your prayers -- His answersare always ON TIME; God's timing is always the right timing.

    went to makati yesterday for an interview @ accenture. after the 30-minute interview, went to

    glorietta for a medical exam which lasted for5 HOURS! could those people at Patient First

    Medical Center workany slower???

    today i got a call from ma'am tina of hchs regarding my application as an english/bible teacher.she asked me if i'd want to work there as a marketing assistant, since it's related to my course in

    college. she then asked me to go there so she could explain the details to me personally. when i

    got there, she explained to me what my job (if ever i get accepted) would be, working as amarketing assistant -- basically doing the layouts, writeups and promotion of the school. i

    seriously want to work there after i heard what i would be doing. it's way better than working ataccenture (working for the latter would require long hours of travel, not to mention money and

    effort). i love working on our youth newsletter, so working as a mktg.asst. at hope would bring

    this passion into a whole new level. another advantage is that i get to learn more of what i love

    doing and i would be able to put my education to use. i really hope i get accepted (it still depends

    on what mr. young, the principal, would say. i'm waiting for their call re: an interview with mr.

    young). but i guess there's no need to worry because if this is God's will for me and if this jobreally is for me, then it will happen.

    Tuesday, May 16, 2006i went to my pre-employment exam for accenture yesterday at makati. there were other

    applicants aside from me. we took up three exams. one is for technical solutions and the other

    two are for business process outsourcing. i enjoyed answering the last two exams -- an IQ test

    and an english proficiency exam. after 2 1/2 hours of sitting there shivering in the super coldroom (unfortunately, i didnt have a jacket with me), we were finally done and were told to wait

    for 2-3 weeks for results.

    surprise! surprise!

    i received a call just now from accenture and they told me that i passed the exam! i'm scheduled

    for an interview tomorrow. that was fast! i thought i still had a long week of relaxation ahead ofme. i guess not. work's calling out to me already.

    the funny thing is, back in college (yabang! kala mo naman kelan pa grumaduate! haha!!) i was

    the one who was adamant of working at a call center. i remember myself saying hinding hindi

    ako papasok sa call center. but i didnt realize how hard getting a job REALLY is -- especially if

    you dont have any experience. so i guess this is another blessing from God, these call centers.they give the majority of fresh graduates, who really dont have any work experience at hand, a

    chance to work and gain experience.

    anyway, i want to get into the HR department so i think it'll be more of paperworks rather than

    the usual call center jobs.Posted by zarahlim at 6:04 AM2 commentsLabels: work

    Sunday, May 14, 2006

    i got a call early this afternoon from accenture. they asked me to go to their office on monday for

    a pre-employment exam. i'm nervous coz this is my first time to do this and i have NO IDEA of

    what im about to go through. im actually looking up their website, coz i really dont know

    anything about this company. personally, i still want to work for publishing/books/magazine, but

    since i still havent gotten any calls, i'll take this opportunity, if not for the job, then for theexperience of taking the exam and being interviewed (FYI, i havent been to aformalinterview

    ever! how pathetic does that sound?!)

    meanwhile, i forgot to write about our BIG move here in nueva. we were informed that ourrented apartment in alvarado will be demolished coz it's already an old building so all tenants

    would have to find a new place to stay. it's good that we got to rent a place so close to church. it

    would be so hard to live far away from bfgfc since i spend lots of time there, especially duringweekends. i was actually surprised when we left alvarado coz after all my rantings about how

    irritating our neighbors were becoming,I ACTUALLY MISS THEM! yup! especially NOREEN.

    hahahaha!!! now, our neighbors are okay, except for the noisy kids. one particular kid stands out.

    i think his name's RUDY coz he's R-U-D-E. it's a good thing i was able to control my temper

    yesterday when he stared at me and said something bastos about me and my sis because when i

    got to church for prayer meeting, i was convicted. i felt that God was telling me to be nice to the

    kid and win him for the kingdom. and it made sense when my mom told me that she also felt the

    prompting of God that night. help me, Lord. i'm having a super hard time controlling mytemper... :(

    i love doing our youth newsletter!!! i just wish i'll get to be a writer/editor someday SOO.

    my favorite project for this sem was our magazine. we had to produce an actual magazine,

    complete with our own layouts, our own writeups and of course our own pictures. i SUPER

    enjoyed doing it! and the best part was that i learned photoshop from this project! yey!!! :)

    our theme was RETRO. i did the writeups for movies and tv shows during the 70s and 80s. it

    was fun, fun fun!!! i miss brady bunch and THE WONDER YEARS! oh my gosh that's my

    favorite when we still had cableTV.

    i also modeled for apol's section, retro hairstyles.. hehe... since no one was available/willing to

    do it, and i wanted to do it, i did it,for the sake of our magazine, not to mention to fulfill my

    lifelong dream of seeing myself in a magazine. hehehehehehe.. am i vain or what!?! sory..

    Wlang ka-order order ang klase niya dahil sa mga games niya. Hello!! Were GRADUATING

    STUDENTS, NOT elementary students!!! We CANNOT afford to waste precious time

    especially since were already SOOOOOOOOO far behind the lesson. Not to mention na THIS

    IS A MAJOR SUBJECT! BROADCAST JOURALISM for Petes sake!!!! I was reallylooking forward in learning a lot from this class coz I really want to be a (news)writer. And this

    subject was supposed to be a great help (if only we had a responsible professor!)

    At hello!! WALA PA SHAG SYLLABUS na binibigay hanggang ngayon!!! Dahil ndi daw sha

    yung gumagawa ng syllabus. Departmental daw kse.. DUH! Sana nagturo parin sha ng lesson

    na alam nyang magagamit namin.

    I REALLY HATE THIS PROFESSOR!Super 10x better pa skanya si Sir JoeGar kc atleast si Sir, kaht papano, may tinuturo, at kaht

    konti, may natutunan ako!

    3 meetings left before final exams.Ewan ko kung ano pa ang matututunan namin dito. Buti pa

    yung ibang section na under sa ibang prof, super dami na nilang natutunan sa broadjourn nila.

    Sana s Maam Pusta na lang ang prof namin dito sa subject na ito.

    SHES SO PLASTIC!! When Maam Arriola was still here in the room, shes all smiles. Now,

    after Ms. Arriola left, shes back to her bitchy self. She just told us, in her bitchy voice withmatching bitchy face, that all the reports would be included in the finals since we didnt have any

    prelim exam with her. DUH!!! KASALAA BA AMI A WALA KAMEG PRELIM

    SAKAYA?! EH ISAG BUWA SHAG DI PUMASOK AT DALWAG BUWA SHAG DI

    AGTURO!! Anong ie-exam namin sakanya eh wala nga kameng natututunan sakanya?!?!?***8:15 pm

    Her first shot at actually teaching us with a bonafide lesson about conglomerates and she cant

    even do it well!!! She cant even read the figures of the total assets of the top media

    conglomerates in the Philippines. She messed up with the way she read figures in millions and

    billions. I mean thats really pathetic! If she really knew her lesson, if shes really prepared to

    teach us this lesson, she would know how to read those figures!!

    She even had the nerve to give a PATHETIC EXCUSE like this: kaya nga masscomm angkinuha kong course eh. HOW INSULTING!! I beg to disagree that masscomm students,

    COMMUNICATION ARTS students for that matter, are incapable of reading figures reachingthe billion levels.HIDI KAME BOBO O!!!! Im practically seething with anger and

    disappointment as of this moment!! STUPID PROFESSOR! I dont know how she got a job as aprofessor in this university, considering her attitude at work, her relationship with other profs

    (which I happen to know is not that okay..), and her mere incompetence.

    Calling the attention of ABs administration. Do something about this prof will you?!

    The students are literally wasting their time coming to Palmas class!!

    what's with the letter H???

    why do some people need to put an H after the first letter of their names?

    examples:jHenny, bHabes, aHbby,jHonny, LHen, aHnne, kHen, bHenjie, etc.

    you can usually find these COOL names on pedicabs, taxis, jeepneys, etc.

  • 8/14/2019 Your Daily Dose of Zarahness-120605-121706

    you can also see these names on the stalls of public toilets, usually accompanied by a number.

    it's okay if that's the real spelling of their names.. but to put it there just for the "coolness" of it??

    duh.. more like "jologs-ness" of it!

    4 AM

    the stupid "pimp" is here again waiting for his girlfriend! (hello!!! look at the time!!!) his stupid,

    noisy, and cheap (jologs!) car is keeping kim and me awake. it's been going on for about 30

    minutes now. it's disrupting my beauty sleep.

    4:30am

    i went down to where his car was, and just stood there, waiting for him to shut off his stupidengine.

    it's not entirely his fault coz his gf really took her time primping and "beautifying" herself.

    the guy was getting impatient and went out of his car. he got out, went inside the girl's house,

    then after a while came back.. that's when he saw me and, thankfully, he turned off his engine.

    at least he had the decency to turn the engine off after he saw me.

    he's been here, keeping us awake, for a few weeks now. what's amazing is that it's always after

    midnight that he comes and picks up his gf. i wonder where they're going?

    yesterday, i woke up to lots of shouting and feet-stomping courtesy of our ever-thoughtful

    neighbor who lives just above us. from what i heard,they're having a party of some sorts. they

    were playing "Bring Me" with their kid-relatives. i decided, since it's Christmas, to let it go. iwas able to endure it for a couple of hours, but when the noise still went on and i was starting to

    have a headache, i wasnt able to control myself - i went upstairs and confronted "noreen" (my

    noisy neighbor who looks like noreen from attic cat! bwahahaha)

    I might be able tolerate their shouts, but i really couldnt stand the stomping of their feet andclattering of their furnitures -- it seemed as if our roof would cave in on us because of all the

    commotion. and this is not the first time they've done that. everyday, you can expect these

    variety ofexotic aromas, courtesy of our GI neighbors.

    Paskuhan. My last Paskuhan as a UST student. Good thing the fireworks display is back! Lastyear was rather boring coz there were no fireworks. My Film Production professor won in the

    raffle a MagicSing. But who I really envy is my Spanish prof, who won a LAPTOP! Imagine

    that? What luck! Faculty members and the priests must really have an advantage when it comes

    to the raffle draw. Could it be that they buy more tickets than the students (each student isrequired to buy 10 raffle tickets)? Or are they really just lucky? Oh well... I guess its not yet mytime to own a digicam, a laptop, or even a MagicSing, for that matter. Maybe next time.

    Finally! Our final thesis manuscript is already finished. It has already been submitted to our

    adviser and our panelists. But what was supposed to be a relaxing day turned out to be a frantic

    one.

    When I arrived in school, our thesis was already bound and ready to be submitted. Our groupmet at 10am, an hour and half early for the scheduled submission to our class president. When

    we met our thesis adviser at about 11am, we were faced with a very big problem he pointed out

    lots of things that displeased him regarding our work. He wanted us to change something in

    every chapter of the thesis. And he even had the nerve to throw a tantrum right there in the

    faculty room, with all the professors looking at him. He banged the chairs, slammed our thesis

    on the table and shouted at Frank and Apol, for everyone to hear, until only his voice could

    be heard in the room. That was really a very crazy move from him because he was acting in

    front of all the professors, perhaps wanting them to think that hes such a good and helpful

    adviser, when he really is NOT!! He didnt help us at all! All he did was criticize us and ask us to

    change this and that, without explaining what our mistakes were. We didnt even have a

    consultation with him that lasted for at least 30 minutes. He always seemed very busy, or about

    to go somewhere else. And when the time came for us to submit our thesis, just when we werefinished, he ACTED as if we didnt follow his advice (comments and suggestions) regarding our

    thesis. All I can say is -- advice?? What advice? He just lost my respect. If that is what being PR

    practitioner is all about, being plastic and superficial (coz thats what he is, as to what I have

    witnessed during this thesis experience), then I dont want to be in that field; but if ever Im led

    in that career, I definitely wont take after his example.

    Anyway, its a good thing we were able to finish the revisions before 5pm (which is the real

  • 8/14/2019 Your Daily Dose of Zarahness-120605-121706

    17/21

    deadline for submission). At least we were able to submit our thesis on time. There was another

    group who had to write a letter informing the authorities that they wont be able to submit their

    thesis on that day.

    Now we only have the defense to prepare for.

    Graduation is just around the corner yey!

    this is very me!!! *wink*

    You Have a Melancholic Temperament

    Introspective and reflective, you think about

    everything and anything.

    You are a soft-hearted daydreamer. You long for

    your ideal life.You love silence and solitude. Everyday life is

    usually too chaotic for you.

    Given enough time alone, it's easy for you to find

    inner peace.You tend to be spiritual, having found your own

    meaning of life.

    Wise and patient, you can help people through

    difficult times.

    At your worst, you brood and sulk. Your negativethoughts can trap you.

    You are reserved and withdrawn. This makes it hard

    to connect to others.

    You tend to over think small things, making

    decisions difficult.

    What Temperment Are You?

    the deadline for the submission of our thesis manuscript is fast approaching (dec 19) and we're

    not yet ready. we're trying to get outside help (from other willing profs) coz our adviser doesnt

    seem to be interested in helping us. maybe he just doesnt like our topic. im so disappointed coz

    he's one of the best profs i've ever had.

    my professor in broadcast journalism looks like love aover. In media law, it's senator cabalfin /tata madz.

    I dont mean to be insulting, i think it's cute. Especially sir lopez. He's very competent, very

    knowledgeable of the course, very intelligent, and VERY ARTICULATE. I just wish i could say

    the same thing with my broadjourn prof. She was absent for three meetings (well, we cant really

    blame her coz she wasnt allowed to teach coz she lacked some requirements since she's new).Personally, i think that the moment when she came to class last thursday, she should have

    explained why she couldnt come to class or at least said she was sorry (even if she doesnt meanit, as long as she said it), even if it wasnt her fault. Instead, she just went on as if nothing

    happened; and she even had the nerve to be bitchy at the end of the 3-hour class. To top it off,

    she dismissed us 45 minutes late. She was supposed to dismiss us at 8:30pm but she let us out at9:15pm. How inconsiderate! I mean, it's okay if she was absent for just 1 meeting; but 3

    meetings? Hello!!!! The last semester for graduating students are veeerryyy short, as in supershort (14 weeks in all, including holidays!). I just hope that shell turn out to be a competent

    professor.
