Courtesy call

I remember in my previous work when I was just new I got so nervous to make a courtesy call to our guests, checking if how’s our guests’ stay, asking them if there is anything we can do to make their stay more comfortable and if they require assistance just not to hesitate to contact me or anyone of the reception staff. Doing all that was just fine but what made me nervous and scared was I can’t easily comprehend slang words specially if talking only at phone. I was grateful because the phone that the hotel was providing uniden was so helpful. I heard every guest on the other line very well and clear. I understand them all what they were telling or complaining and that I was able to respond immediately to their needs and complaints and thankful for some of  the compliments I got from guests.

A trip to Cebu City

The weather these days were not good and typhoon Chedang was on her way to Philippines but still me, my two sisters and niece went to Cebu City for my interview and in the same time to have fun and make some bonding with each other. It’s was our first time to visit the place. It took us 40 minutes by plane before we reached Cebu City. The very first day we came after checking-in in a certain hotel in Cebu City, we went out to visit Taoist Temple on top of the mountain and the very next day I prepared myself for my interview and after we visited Basilica del Santo Nino-the oldest church in Cebu. It was short and tiring but enjoyable trip. We did enjoy it. We found Cebu City a very nice and beautiful place. And thanks God, I passed the interview and typhoon Chedang turned her way to other country. We went home very safe and successful. God was and is always at control and took care of everything.

Scrubs

Nurses every now and then are very in demand abroad. After I passed the Nurse Board exam and got my license on hand I immediately applied for the Nurse training program in one and the biggest Regional hospital in my place. This Hospital was also our based hospital for duty and exposure during my intern days. Before when were still students, we are required to wear the prescribed uniform, not allowed to wear jewelries while on duties, the hair must be ponytailed. But now that we are registered nurses we have already the freedom to wear any style of uniforms as long as it is intended for nurses.

While searching for a best online store I landed in http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/Scrubs-for-Women/ and knew that they also offer variety of hospital uniforms both for male and female nurses. This is where my other colleague got their very nice and trendy scrubs.

But the most highlights of our training is that we can be able to learn the most essence of being a nurse, what’s really the functions of a nurse in the hospital, provide and give quality care to our patient being a patient’s advocate. Through this experience molded us to be globally competitive nurses.

Beautiful face

My soon-to-be bride cousin is so worried about her acne on her face. The acne started to grow when she got so very busy for the preparation of her wedding last few weeks. Stress and excitement make her couldn’t sleep well at all. Like every woman she wants to be perfectly beautiful on her wedding day. She is so very thankful and happy she found a best acne remedy. Now she is worries free!

It’s just goodbye

We made a farewell party at the church last Sunday to one of the workers in the church who is going for “internship” to complete his studies at Bible School.  We gave him tribute as He contributed a lot to the ministry of the church. He was the in-charge of the young people, a choir conductor and an encourager. The party was so enjoyable but very sentimental. We laughed and cried. We all know it’s not the end of everything and that we’ll see each other again. We are praying that God may continue to use him to bless and save more souls. May His light will continue to shine to everyone. God bless Him in His new journey of life.

Bridezilla!

This guest post from Werner Rogers

Bridezilla is the only word I know to use to describe my fiancé. In real life she’s a wonderful, sweet woman, but lately she’s become consumed with planning the perfect wedding and it’s totally changed her personality. I just hope it’s temporary! I never imagined that the color of cocktail napkins would keep us awake at night or that we’d have more than three conversations about a shade of peach, but here I am, six months into this engagement and just hoping the wedding would hurry up and get here!

Last month, Clear Internet Denver specials were really good so I signed us up for a home connection and have been using it to plan the honeymoon. I’m going to take my wife and I to Bora Bora for some much needed relaxation and time together. Hopefully once she spends a day on the beach she’ll be back to her old self and I won’t be worried that I’m marrying a mad woman! I know she’s just as ready as I am to be done with all this planning!

Laser barcode scanner

It’s party time! In preparation with my father’s birthday next week I started to buy groceries for the party. I went to the Mall yesterday and oh, I forgot it was Friday. Weekends are the busiest day of the shopping malls here in our place. I just brought enough money so I made it sure to know all the prices first before paying to avoid embarrassment might I’ll get short in the counter. It was so disappointing to know that some of the items had no tags/prices. I tried to search for assistance but I found no one. Thanks God I saw a laser barcode scanner. I scanned all the barcodes on it and it gave me all the prices instantly. It saved my time.
