Language Barrier

Did you ever work with people whom language is the main concern? Did you ever had a bad day at work where in you already explain what happened but then they couldn't understand? These questions popped in my mind this week. In my work history, I never had a problem communicating with the people I worked with and to our clients. When you work in a foreign country where language barrier is the problem, you will find a hard time expressing your thoughts and feelings. No matter how extensive your explanation is, they just couldn't get it. Did you ever get frustrated when you talk to them, they nod their head to you as an agreement on what you said but find out later that they really don't understand a thing of what you told them.. It is so frustrating. What I experienced this week at work taught me a big lesson. DON'T TRUST ANYBODY BUT YOURSELF!

Blazin Hot

Whew, we survived the power outage today! The power got back at 4 pm but oh boy, I tell you that was sooooo terribly hot... I went to work at 11 am, I wasn't too happy about it because aside from not having electric in the work area, there's nothing to do either. I can't complain about it though because I get paid for doing nothing until the power resumed, besides I got to read my book lol.. It's just so dang hot in there, I'm glad it's over. Hubby said that they were sweating inside the house after they got back from the mall. So he just let the kids stay in the bathtub for an hour or so. I just wish that project like this (working on the power line) should be performed when the weather is a little bit cool not so blazin hot like today.

migraine attack

Have to go to bed early tonight, my migraine is killing me.. Happy blogging everyone and good night! I'll be absent tomorrow due to power outage and I have to go to work.. If you have time to read my posts, please don't forget to leave me comment.. Thanks a lot!

Blessed Week

My husband's boss gave him two days off and that is something I considered HUGE MIRACLE because it's a once in a blue moon occurrence lol.. For that I had lots of time cooking food. I remember when me and my husband first met online, I told him right away that I don't know how to cook (I don't like cooking before). It's just now that I realize I love cooking pala.. Thanks to the recipes online ^_^. We have a schedule of power outage tomorrow so I prepared some food today that won't require cooking, they can just heat it up while I'm at work.. Good thing we bought charcoal today, or else they will eat frozen food tomorrow lol..

I made 30 rolls of lumpia, I sauteed the ingredients first before rolling them. I like it that way because it's very good when you bake them. Baking the lumpia instead of frying makes it stay crispy even if it sets for hours.

We ate nilagang baboy for lunch, uhhhhmm sarap! Luvvyduvvy baked a pineapple upside down cake for dessert.. He don't want me to post this picture because it isn't aesthetically beautiful (the pineapple shifted and we forgot to buy cherries). But i disagree because it tasted sooooooo damn good.. I'm the one who sampled it first lol..

dinner

My daughter want to eat pusit (squid) so I made her adobong pusit.. I was craving for fish, so I fried my favorite sword fish (liwit, langkoy, espada or whatever u call it in tagalog hahaha).. We ate that kind of fish growing up, so I missed it..

We ended up just eating the fried fish, my kids love it too.. I just kept the squid adobo in the fridge for tomorrow, that way I don't have to cook lol..
