DAY 1
We went to different places and we enjoyed the things we saw. The road trip was butt warming but it was fun. It's like we were touring places we've never been to before.
DAY 2
Behind us is an illustration of what's happening inside a maturing egg. We were trying to figure out why people love to eat balut. Poor unborn chicks. Don't get me wrong I also love to sip the sabaw inside the balut but I don't like to eat the chick especially if it already has hair and stuff.
The joys of that day - Cecil, Lays, & Cheetos. Haha. We were trying to figure out what breed this dog is and we just said - Hush Puppies. We know it's just a brand. Just in case you didn't know too - dachshund is the correct breed. Cecil was so chubby and energetic. She was delighted to see new faces and wanted to play around but we were a little scared even though she was friendly. I don't know how she gets by with no other dogs in the vicinity. That's Sir Prox by the way trying to make Cecil look at the camera.
We love that we get free food for this. I think its one of my weaknesses. Just give me food and I'll do whatever you want! Just kidding. Haha! Enough of that... Let's get a little serious this time.
Gone were the bum days! I'm more determined than ever to work. Finally got in for a training program at a hospital in my hometown and it starts on June 3. Until then I'd still be a bum, well at least I thought so until Hannah texted me that she had a 2 day job for us. Well, I need it so I was going for the gold!
It was a vaccination "gig." Our skills for intramuscular injection was highly called for. We went to different areas of their farms and plantations. We were amazed of how vast their lands were and how they manage to keep them all going so well. Not all their workers availed the vaccine but the owners set a good example by getting one for themselves.
It's funny how the men were scared of the needles and some even get second thoughts after we disinfect the site. They teased each other like little kids. But somehow they gather up the courage to man up and get the vaccine, after all it's for their own good. The two days of work was tiring but fun! We felt so fulfilled afterwards. We got to see a lot of things that we don't usually see in the city. You learn to appreciate a lot of things in life.
Humble beginnings. That's another thing I realized that day. The owner started off with balut and selling some eggs at a certain mall. We didn't get the full story but somehow she managed to make it huge. Look at where she is now. Her employees also told us how they treat them well and keep themselves grounded. Now that's something eh? I guess great things really don't come easy. We need to strive hard to get what we want in life. Like what I've said before you don't have the right to quit if you didn't even try hard enough.
This experience has been very helpful to me. I'm gonna take baby steps and reach my goals slowly but surely.
