"the biggest step is the scariest thing to happen to anyone"

it has happened. the biggest thing for me ever since i worked for BBW
i might be promoted to beauty specialist at BBW
yes yes Kristine who didn't know shit about make-up or kikay stuff has "well might" be promoted. which is so funny cause, i never expected it to happen

the scary part to am actually liking it. i love selling the unselable to people and basically making anyone's day. it makes work more worth while

wishme luck i'll tell what happens

2007-04-05T21:15:00.000-07:00

B I Y A C H!!

"its not an excuse for anyone to snap on another even though they are tired or stressed"

i make it a habit even though am stressed or tired, if i work i smile to everyone so that it cheers them up in a sorta way. especially in my other job. people are tired, hungry and wanna sit down. you wanna make them feel relaxed in a more relaxed environment right?

well.... i worked today for 10-6 8 hours. and honestly from yesterday which was a 14 hour work day for me i am tired 7 hours sleep is not cutting it. but i still when with costumers i am cheerfull and helpful whenever i help them with anything. cause "its my job" this is my philosophy but this one girl in work "ali" *i didn't want to say her full name since the first day of work when i said hi she just ignored me. am still training around stuff and i know am getting better in a way but i feel she dislikes me *i know its just work* but seriously when i ask her a question she snaps at me and makes me feel so stupid

so today i took my break early like 10:30 since i didn't eat breakfast and so i worked.
marlene one of the employees told me to take my 15 min break at 3:30 and said i could and would tell gino * one of the managers* that i was going to take it so assuming i left. when i got back this girl went next to me and said in a oh so hostile tone
"if ur gonna take ur break let someone know cause its whoever took her break first goes last! GOT THAT that's how things works here" and leaves me what am doing. never even trying to deffend myself while she was saying that i just suck it up and let my ego take the beating plus my pride. i went to the back to get more ice. just wanted to kill the girl i kept mumbling *what a fucking bitch* never even considering am new that i "don't" know what is what or anything. she's my senior on the job but never did she even treat me with any kindness and show me the ropes in her view. and plus what pisses me off more, she is butt ugly like really not being a bitch myself but really? plus she has the ugliest BF in the freaking whole world. but that's her life and do i care?

so i tell marlene what happened and told me she had told gino that i was taking my break and he did know.

so am just thinking "what the hell is her freaking problem"

*diversity kristine diversity*

damn stupid aaarrrgggghhhhh
am just gonna tollerate her i am i repeat not take any fucking orders from her
*screw her to freakin helll*
wahahahahahahahahahahaha

now that i remember. Marlene asked me where "ali" is i said "i don't know and i don't care"
remind me not to talk to this girl or smile or anything! and if she does come to BBW am gonna make sure she gets the WORST SERVICE EVER in my entire life. and make her life living hell!!

sigh this is not gonna take me anywhere anywho. i feel so weird these days
tired tired tired. i keep thinking am going to get my day off on sunday no work no work but gawd wwhen is sunday.... sigh... i need a life.
oh i do but please not like this.

2007-04-02T22:09:00.000-07:00

Kristine is making sense for once

i hope... and i hope... *scratches head* frustrating piece of *****

I've been thinking about a makeover. well not exactly "my" makeover am talking about this blogs makeover
but i don't have an idea for a skin that i should put in.. i think am drooling over the thousands of choices in blog skins.com when i see one skins i go ohhh then unfortunately i see another one. frustrating! its like shopping for clothes but worse. wanting to find something really cute and is exactly "me" well people for the next few months i will be crying my eyes out due to the fact that i am gonna be working two jobs and won't have time to do anything except eat, breathe and sleep. and study of course. but really is this what Americans go Thur? if it is i salute you! (i was about to say "MY FELLOW AMERICANS" no but really being in the work force is a pain in the ass especially the TAX! that is the only thing that is killing my pay check while "in the Philippines" no such thing as tax! that's why the god damn country of mine is ass poor. they are having trouble making people do their taxes because "am butt poor" which is so true, living their 21 years of my life i perfectly understand now why people there wanna come here. opportunities are so endless. well of course with the right timing and the right people you can definitely make something work! hear that world KRISTINE IS MAKING SENSE NOW!! this is just way funny. i guess after a tiring floor set and fixing things at work and making things official in MACY'S my mind is working clearly and in precise

guess am going to sleep then good night guys and have a great week!!

2007-03-29T03:07:00.000-07:00

sigh... its been a very long month... i feel am dragging my feet just the thought of work right now makes me more tired. i can't sleep because of this damn headache i got this evening. and now in the middle of the night *oops its morning already* i try to write in this blog that i have neglected for so long now. things have been doing great. my job at BBW is doing splendidly, got hired at Macy's at the quoting from mama "course related" job. school is FANTASTIC! i think am doing okay. i got a new car which am proud of. since its my first. but recently with everything going on i can't help wonder. if i didn't leave for the states would everything be like this? would i be still in physical therapy killing myself with pathetic grades, not so good professor's and a school that See's money signs on every students head. but here i am.. enjoying my choices that i should have made years ago. i wanna be as independent as i dream i would. and i know i will get there somehow..*yeah yeah drama nanaman ako* but my professor chef miller said to me twice "am keeping my eye on you Kristine, because i know you have the potential to succeed in this business and your skills have improved" but honestly i never thought i did improve. never did no matter how high my grade was i never felt like "am achieving something" am not saying i don't like cooking! cooking is my passion plus i love it! but something is missing. every time i taste what am cooking that night at class we strive to present the best the "creme DE la creme" of our abilities. always something is missing until you perfect it. i wonder though if i can perfect this art... but culinary arts can never be perfected always changing always finding new ways to "wow" sigh am dragging on and on. well can't think of anything else just wanted to say am sorry if I've truly neglected the blog. i know you guys understand i don't have the time to do so. not starting next week when i start a new job.. i love you guys so much for holding on to every word i put in. am not saying farewell though.but giving you guys the appreciation you guys deserve!

MABUHAY AND MGA BLOGGERS!!

missing the days

where i only need to call your name and you come running

knowing that your only a call away from me

always right there to make things right

when everything seems so wrong

cheering me on when i know things are not doing well

i miss the days

where we would hold hands and just walk

funny conversations

about whatever random stuff we could think of

i missing our dates

when we would just go to the arcade and enjoy ourselves

i missing our adventures

where we would try out anything interesting

missing our "up to sawa"

computer shops days where we would just play together to our

hearts content

and at the end a simple kiss and

"i love you" makes me look forward to the next day

no more kisses no more hugs no more holding hands

more "i love you's" but still not enough

when i left a piece of my heart stayed

and now the hole is growing

i want you beside me, i want you to see the things am seeing

i want you to hold me at night and wake up seeing you face every morning

i am hurting so much that you can never know

acting so strong just to keep us alive

i don't want it this way. i want to be with you

I LOVE YOU

ALWAYS..........

this past week has benn the most TIRING week like eber!!
i haven't gone out partying for almost 2 months now.
i haven't started with my term paper yet.. which is due next week. *SYET*
just starting to buy x-mas gift..
and i feel, *sigh* dissatisfied.

i know am earning money.. and whenever my pay check come in am like the happiest person living in this world.
but to no avail i have to life.

school
work
sleep

school
work
sleep

i hate this feeling..

its papa's 2nd year aniversary.
whenever this day comes i always recall papa that sad night at the hospital.
remembering ir right now is making me cry.
my family knows this, i didn't like how me and papa said good bye.it makes me sooo sad just remembering how things were. how i backstabbed him, how much i despised him and wished that i never knew the man that i called father.

now that am crying i remember papa's last words to me..
me and mama had a arguement and papa's last words..

"kristine always respect your mama"

OMG... tears just *shit*
Papa. i miss you so much. am so sorry.
LOVE YOU PA

A VERY SWEET WEIRD:D:D

its weird...
i feel some of papa's "though fullness" on uncle robert
well usually my dad comes home with smarties for me and my sisters.
but me being like what 16 or 17 should be considered an adult
he still gave me smarties. i remember those days and i miss those carefree days.

yesterday. my stepdad's son in law came in chicago. but not knowing they are eating out i cooked spagetti with bacon. also knowing my stepdad loves it i cooked it extra special

but when i got to the mall to pick up ROB i see my step dad and his son in law in a eat all you can resto that i love.

when we got home(me and rob)
i find him and son in law in the sala talking
being so nice uncle robert took him back to the hotel and when he came back home

i was in the bathroom doing buisness

uncle robert: hey kristine i have a surprise for you (sfx dropping something in my bed)

me: what is it?? (curious)

uncle robert: look and see..

me bieng so curious what he got me. i leave the bathroom and came in my room.

in my bed was a container full of chocolate rolled waffers with chocolate fudge in it.

and it hit me all of a sudden while getting ready for bed.
uncle robert and papa are different but the same.

papa never worries about money. especially if its important to buy it.
same with uncle robert

and both of them are unpredictably thoughtful..

sigh. how weird...

sigh sigh

oh yeah!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE ROBERT!!

i've had a hell of a week with some of my subjects being over am happy.
i passed my 2 subjects Food and sanitation and finally i get to have my sanitaion certificate..
uncle freddie called it a certificate for a janitorial job(hahaha uncle freddie!)
i finished my FSM 109 class and passed the test in flying colors.

yeah a hell of a week....
not being able to think straight for one week
and reading that blasted book for 2 days at least it was worth it:D:D

hay wala na ako maisip na malagay
my mind is totally blank..
i've been thinking of so much stuff that i really can't pull my mind together anymore
to the point i can't think of anything meaningful at all.

syet why am i so deep all of the sudden... ay POcha

2006-10-09T18:32:00.000-07:00

i haven't blogged for days now and so much has happened.
this past week i had my finals in my food production class and to tell you guys the truth.. i did exceptionally well
and honest to god i really expected the worst of all worst.
preperations i did for my finals
1) i brought plates just for my Food production
2) typed out ALL my recipes including my mise en place(preperation list)
3) i stayed up late up to 3 o'clock in the morning memorizing my menu (RECIPES AND PRESENTATION)

finally the day for my final has come..
coming to school nervous and the worst part is a very long sermon from my mom telling me
"why did you pick catfish of all things to cook BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH" (YOU GUYS GET THE PICTURE)
which made me more nervous that i had to buy coffee for myself just to calm myself down (which didn't work)
okay this is how it worked

she gave us a time limit of 2 hours which includes preparing the food, cooking and food plate-up and the presentation

i started at 8:00 and i had to plate up at 10:00

well let's just say i didn't think i could make it by the 10:00 mark but miraculously i did..
here's my menu

Soup
Rainbow Fish soup
Salad
Japanese Cucumber salad with a sesame oil vinaigrette
entree
Grilled Catfish with Grilled Vegetable and white rice

so after my dishes been served
i was standing next to the door trying to catch some of the comments about my dishes...
the comments i heard weren't good..

they called me in after a few minutes.

First Judge (Chef David) *gives the meanest comments*
"kristine.. your soup was good i loved the consistency of the soup and the taste. but it pieces were too big for the spoon and you must always remember to portion out your servings. i didn't know if you were going for the fish or the shrimp because the amount of fish and shrimp are the same but its good "its there but not quite there yet"

*same comments from the other judges*

your salad well the presentation is excellent. but remember "portion out you serving". it needed more salt. it didn't bring out the flavor of the cucumbers and your vinaigrette needed salt too. it was also "there but not quite there yet"

Proffesor (Chef Rios): i tried to eat it but i couldn't cause you know i hate sesame oil. but yes it needed a but more salt

Me: well i marinated the cucumber's in salt but i was too afraid to add more cause it might get too salty same with the vinaigrette i already added more salt in it but i guess it needed more

(Chef David) but kristine what impressed me the most is that working with sesame oil is very difficult cause if you put too much then the sesame will over power the cucumbers and did you put rice wine in this?

Me: yes i did

(Chef David) well you could have added more but am really impressed you took the chance to make something very original

(Chef David) okay kristine. your entree *nervous look on my face* was really good. everything was moist, the fish is well seasoned at first glace it looks dry but when you cut in to it it was moist and cooked perfectly.i like how you presented the fish. but i would prefer to have the limes in wedges so i can put it on the fish but presentaion wise it is perfect. i wish you could have seasoned your rice but its excellent. "it was there but not quite there yet"

(Chef Rios) kristine am impressed your fish turned out fantastic. i was kinda scared cause grilling fish is a very hard thing to do but you pulled it out very well.at first glace the fish looks dry but it was well seasoned and cooked right i agree with chef david that the rice needs to be seasoned with a little salt. but if you put that soup on top i could have enhanced the taste. over all it was excellent and i enjoyed it. in addition you plates set off the presentaion.

Chef Rios: over all kristine from all of us you did an excellent job from the plates to the cooking to the presentation. you showed originality and wel can all agree that it is a "well choreographed" Menu. we are all impressed

After hearing their comments leaving the room and going back to the kitchen and when i got there i was jumping up and dowm shouting YES YES!!

then my classmate Hannah *very smart girl* come up to me and tells me this
"kristine am really impressed."

me: why is that??
Hannah: well while you were doing your menu you knew exactlly what to do and how to plate up. congrats again kristine

Hay am glad its over but i knew right then and there. am born to do this.
happy:D:D *grins*

2006-09-25T16:11:00.000-07:00

there are times where you can't help thinking of things that should be or never forgetten.

while having my walk around hanover park usually a 30 min walk that helps clears my head.
i couldn't help but think of papa. especially now am taking culinary arts that i know papa is gonna be very happy...

kept thinking if he were still alive would things be like now??
that if i left manila and he were still alive would he be happy? angry? depressed?
that if i would call every weekend would he slam the phone or even talk to me to check if am okay?

i know am depressing myself...
i dunno i tired to think of a menu for my finals, debating to myself what soup would be appropriate for the dish am gonna serve.
then it hit me..."what would papa think?"

i knew right then and there i missed him.
i knew we weren't the best of friends not even close like "BUDDY-BUDDY" but i miss him..

"when a loved one is dead, people tend to say and think of the nice things about that person"

i can't say that he was a good guy or i say he was a bad guy either its weird.
i thought i hated him with all of my being.

its sad, that i just realized this a year and months after he died.
its very sad that when ever i think him.. wanna do better but at the same time follow his example

i remember what ahma told me "Chua's tend to show how they feel thru money"
that we tend to give money not because we need it. because that's how we show "in material terms" how much we love them.

i have to admit now hard is it may be to say.

i am my father's daughter

looks
personality
philisophies
how the "mind thinks"

am proud to be a CHUA and i can't have it any other way
**BOW** sob sob

this is bad.. what if winter hits chicago this november...
aaarrrrhhhh i don't even wanna think about this its already giving me the chills.

that is not even the end of my miserable and bad week
this tuesday i had my service and i was the waiter.
well what do waiters do?"wait on the costumer if done clean up or bring them whatever they need right or give them their foods if they are ready rigghhtt??"

well the expidiator"sorry i don't know how to spell this"
is the first to know what the orders are, who's table and if the order was given already or not.
there's this crazy girl in my class as in super crazy
let's call her Crazy girl (cause she is crazy)
the first week of class she made me come with her in her car and change a parking space, get her books and go back to campus. not so bad right?? WRONG!! my top 3 reasons why this arrangement sucks
1. her paking spot was so far it took us 10 mins goign there and 5 mins to go back to campus
2. this girl never!! stops yapping.. i mean if she finishes a sentences there is another one coming... a never ending yap fest from a super annoying girl.
3. she fucking smells man.. i mean BO pare i don't know she can smell herserf but fuck man she stinks BIG TIME!!

okay back to my story.. so she was the exblahblah for the week and i had 4!! 4!! tables. my classmates had 2 or 3 but no i had to have 4 at the same time... i felt like i was being the Punished for my sins. an drunning around like the roadrunner ain't fun. running everywhere getting water, making sure the food is served i was BUSY.
so going in the kitchen making sure my entree was ready she shouts
CRAZY GIRL:"KRISTINE you don't have to run!! you set your own pace not theirs!!"
i had this incredulous look in my face thinking *HEY am supposed to be their pace am following not mine!! am the waiter or are you stupid??*
but being the frekisly good girl that i am i didn't say anything but "sorry"

i told my classmates about this they just told me "kristine don't listen to her she's fucking crazy"
"you did a great job!! unlike her during her shift she screwed up most of the time"

well that is not the end of it..
i heard my classmates talking and since dinning room was closed i had time to eat...(we always have left overs from the shift so we have lunch "FREE")
that someone checked them out for 4 times or should they dress up at the back or should they just wear their chef's jackets..
i was confussed(got that form uncle robert) so i asked my classmate who has the same class that morning and her name is consuwela
"No kristine they are talking about crazy Girl cause she dreessed up at the back and the door was open she not knowing was standing there in her underwear then a guy comes up. she kept telling the class someone was cheking her out"

ME"OMG she's so stupid"
Consuwela"I know"
we where laughing like hell cause now i know i was not alone with this...
but damn man she is so SPOILED

am starting to hate her... ALOT
am excited!! francine and shine are coming here this year... am not gonna be lonely anymore..
