Being part of the Wachovia Idol, has been one of the great experiences with this company, along with the other FIRSTS that I had. Truly, I am grateful that somehow I have shared the God-given talent that I have and at least, I was able to do what I've been missing doing. Singing infront of a crowd is something I never thought would be possible for me ever since I got into this industry. But thanks to the GPTW for initiating projects such as this for us to break free from the hassle and stress of taking in calls. I have really enjoyed every week that I would sing my heart out and see the throng of people admiring me for the job well done and the superb performance. I have gained a lot of friends out of this experience. I admire the other semi-finalists who have been such a good sports. That even if they got eliminated already, they still made sure that the friendship is intact. It didnt dishearten them neither showed any bitterness with regards to the results. We are all winners here at our own respect. And I know everyone deserves a prize for the wonderful performace weekly. How I wish, there is more than just " Good Job!!"

Here are some of the shots I had during the night.

Rest Day Mode

Ahehehe!!! My favorite day of the week, Tuesday. Finally have the air to breathe... away from calls, irate customers, stess and smoking buddies. I miss the silence. I miss being alone in a place. I miss deep thinking. I miss walking nowhere.

I started my day infront of my computer and now (it's 2:48 pm), I'm still here. I'm trying to get my self abreast with the latest news with my friends. I checked their friendster, multiply, IMEEM etc. I finally had the chance to check my inbox too after almost 3 weeks!!! Our connection from the internet company got sooo busted that I really screamed at the PSR over the phone. Their system sucks!!! If only I have better option,I swear I would have changed my provider.

Anyway, what keeps me busy nowadays is the singing contest at our office. It's no big thing but somehow I like the idea. I get the chance to know more people at work. Plus, I am doing what I have loved since I was a little kid - singing! I miss singing infront of a crowd and getting their ass moving. Singing every night, dressing like a star, wearing heavy make up and being admired for such a great performance. How I miss those days... ahehehe!!!

I wonder if I really have a better chance in this contest though. From 15 contestants, we're down to 9. This Friday would be another elimination round. Would I be among those who'll get eliminated? I'm keeping my fingers crossed... The votes would really help me a lot... So I pray I will get as much. I think I would need to buy tickets for me aheheh...

Let me see if I can write more stuff today... I feel tired already.... My brain cells are burned out...
