Oh hello blog! FINALLY got the time to FINALLY BLOG. So many things have happened and i dont even know where to start. For a first i am now OFFICIALLY EMPLOYED!:) Yes yes i am now officially a CABIN CREW at CEBU PACIFIC, oh yeah! But im getting ahead of my story so here.
I started training last March 28. It was really hard at first cause i got really overwhelmed with the BIG manuals i have to study. I almost gave up really, cried cause i dont know how to start or even how to handle things. It was really hard, i felt so alone. LONER much! I didn't really have that friend in training that i could talk to or that someone whom i could hang out with. Then im not really good in putting on make ups for i dont really put on make up. My supervisor always makes pansin my make up! haha makes pansin!:p But as time passed by it came to me that i could really do it. I started excelling in class and finally got to get used in putting make up and being good at it.Oh yeah! Our training had its ups and downs. Ups: i got to meet new friends (ones that i really got to bond with), experience such as sliding down from the plane, opening and closing doors, crawling along the aisle of the plane, shout out "EMERGENCY BEND DOWN" loud and clear while doing the emergency procedures and having lots of gazillion of other experiences funny and memorable with my co-trainees. Downs: memorizing the BIG manuals from cover to cover, verbatim/word for word, having to go home early in the morning because we had to practice in the aircraft and at times me and my boyfriend even fought about me pursuing this job, but thats a different story. Overall, i think all of the hardwork paid off! I got to do my job and enjoy it plus im excited for my pay day cause this job really pays really really GOOOD! ;) My first flight with a supervisor was last May 15 and 17, i even cried after my first flight on my frist day for i thought i was going to fail my graded flight, but i cried even more when i found out that my supervisors were impressed on the way i worked. I was so relieved when i heard this and i was so happy because i really though i was going to fail. They said i did a good job and its that its as if i was flying for a a long time. oh yeah! That's what they call FLYING WITH FLYING COLORS! hahaha So there last May 20 i graduated as a CABIN CREW at CEBU PACIFIC. After a day off, sunday to wednesday was scheduled for another training for ATR and by May 26, i was employed.
May 26 i was suppose to be a HR or Home Reserve wherein anytime you can be upgraded to a flight or to be and FR or Field Reserve. And yes last May 26, i got upgraded to a 4am flight! Hello work! haha My first productive flight, meaning my first paid flight was to Davao and Iloilo and i was so blessed to be given very nice flying partners from my Co-CC and Pilots. I finished around 12noon and got my commission from the on board sales too. haha Loves flying cause we're paid to fly plus my commission pa kmi everytime we sell something on board!:) oooohhh i sooo cant wait for my pay day! Siguro ung mga first 3 months pay ko madidissolve! hahaha Yesterday din HR ako and i was enjoying watching THE INCREDIBLES on STAR MOVIES when i got a call that im upgraded to FR! oh hello responsibility na tlga!!:) So there, i stayed in the office from 11am to 7pm doing nothing but i was happy cause i really didn't want to be upgraded for a flight. I got to spend time with my batchmates for we were both FR's! And today, im a HR thats why im here doing nothing and panics every time my phone rings cause i dont wanna be upgraded! haha
For my lovelife: Its a so-so for us. Ever since i got to start my training we spend time together as much as we can. Have a movie out or grab something to eat at times, that's why im pretty much updated with all the current movies lately. Of course, we also got into some really big fights. One of it was with the issue of me pursuing this job. Fyi, after 6 months of being a probationary Cabin Crew, i'll be regularized and theeen i can be based in CEBU for a minimum of 6 months.:( That's what we fought about. He really didn't want me to go, i think we almost break up talking about itcause having that possibility of me being away scares him a lot. Of course i also don't want to be away from him but its just a possibility that i might be based there. And this possibility, he doesnt want to face. After some talks, i finally convinced him to let me through the job for i really want this and somehow its been like a dream for me. So there he's been really supportive lately but somehow it cares me a lot when the time comes when i'll be off to be based in Cebu. Im not saying i will be but there's a chance. On the other hand, he's officially unemployed he got hired last friday and he'll be starting training tommorow! im soo proud of him!:) He's been waiting for this opportunity for a long time and finally he got it! Hopefully work doesn't come between us cause i'm sure we'll be both busy in our careers. Of course, if there's a will there's a way. I sooo believe in that.
Ohh one more thing, my car got smashed!:( It was during the holy week that i was spending time with my family and babe in the province that our driver with all his angst smashed my car into a barricade. The front was a total wreck and it cant be driven anymore. So there, up until know i cant talk to him the way i used to because of what happened. The car is still in total wreck for we're waiting for the insurance response. I hope they replace it with a new one, i really hope so.
Well there goes, soo busybusy.. I miss hanging out with my friends and family. I've missed a lot of events already. 2 weddings form both side of the family this May, I'm suppose to be one of the bridesmaid and i ended up not attending. They're all completed and im the only one whose missing. sad.:(
Hopefully soon i can get to spend time with family and friends when i start to get use to going around my schedule. Oh well hello new chapter of my life! Hello responsibility! At least pay day will make me feel better! i wanna buy a new bag (longchamp?) waaaant!! new shirts!!! and i also want a new BLACKBERRY BOLD phone!! oh myyyy!! Can't wait!! haha
