After my 240 Hours Training in MERALCO salary administration ,i noticed i gained weight when i saw my recent photos, I am very happy to have this body weight kahit papano tumaba na ako ( tumaba na ko sa lagay na to)
Edward Rex Pega is one of my close friends, in behalf of The Economics Students nalulungkot kami sa nangyayari, I tried my best na makuha sya sa nasabing networking pero talagang gusto nya kumita ng madalian ng pera, Mahal na mahal namin ang tao na to, kami pa ang tumulong sa kanya para maging sila ng kaibigan ko na si Carol Dizon, pero nagulat nalang ako right after ng nagyari, nagbago ang status sa facebook nya, from being in relationship into single. Di namin alam kung ano ang dahilan pero kung ano man yun we respect you Rex. Basta Dito lang kami ng kaibigan mo.....
tandaan mo tol na di lahat ng Bagay nakukuha ng madalian, may work ka naman at may napag aralan bakit ganun ka nalang ka interesado sa networking... sana maging masaya ka sa napili mo. hangad ng tropa na sana matupad pangarap mo na umasenso
Nagulat lang ako sa sagot mo sa post ko sayo sa facebook.Siguro wala pa kami maitulong sa inyo dahil students pa kami, pero dito kami na mga kaibigan mo at pangako namin di ka namin ipapahamak pero kung gustuhin mo yan , Thankful kami pag umasenso ka
I don’t think these photos requires any special comment. This creature, found on Thailand, is very strange to me. You can see a lot of local folks in the background that seem to worship this creature they have “found”. The end result is an even more absurd and even humorous scene. At least they managed to turn my amazement into laughter by this baby powder and juices they brought as a tribute to this creature. They have even brought a fan to keep it well preserved for the scientists.
There has been a lot of debates about what this creature might be and that is exactly the beauty of mystery, the inability to solve it. It might be some kind of strange animal, it even looks like a mythical creature. Honestly I don’t know what to think about this funny and strange event. These pictures do raise more questions than answers…
Flexible friends: Supple, athletic . . . and that?s just Tanya Gold
Bend of the world: Nokulunga Buthelezi says her amazing talent has always just come naturally ? even as a baby the South African would bend over backwards in her cot
Nokulunga Buthelezi is standing in a Big Top in London's Docklands with her foot on top of her head. She removes the foot easily and, just as easily, replaces it with her other one.
Then Nokulunga - known as Lunga, or, more flamboyantly, Snake-Girl - puts the other one back. Now both feet are on her head.
Most women couldn't speak with one foot on their head, let alone both, but not Lunga. She chatters away in a tight green snake costume, swaying but not falling over, flexing her super-supple body like a python.
"I'm so cold," she moans eventually, moulding her body back into human shape. Obviously being a snakegirl isn't always easy.
The £4.2 million extravaganza Afrika! Afrika! - a celebration of the continent in circus - opens this week.
Acts include the Human Spider, Makaya Dimbelelo from Angola, who can squeeze his body through the head of a tennis racket.
Then there's the Waterman - Dickson Oppong from Ghana - who swallows five litres of water and ejects it from his mouth like a fountain.
But Lunga, this tiny 18-year-old contortionist with huge eyes - fresh from a triumphant two-year run in Germany where two million people paid to see her - is the undoubted star of the show.
When I meet her in the promoter's office, she is staring into a mirror, painting on her eyebrows. Eventually she turns to me. She is tiny, with the figure of a child.
Lunga was born in Johannesburg, South Africa, and tells her story like a child reciting a fairy tale. Even as a baby, she says, she contorted in her cot.
"I slept with my legs behind my head and my hands behind my back," she says, grinning. "My mum thought there was something wrong with me."
But apart from this small quirk, baby Lunga was in perfect health. By the time she was ten months old, she was doing the splits in the living room. Then her grandmother Thuli recalled that her own mother had a snake-like flexibility.
"I never met my great-grandmother, but apparently she was as flexible as I am," says Lunga. "I was glad when I learnt that, because I used to think: 'Why am I like this? Why am I the only one who can do it?'"
There is, apparently, a 'snake' gene in Lunga's family, and it pops out every couple of generations.
At school, Lunga says she interrupted lessons to show the teacher her moves, and at break times she did demonstrations for her classmates - and charged them for the privilege. (Her brother, Bheki, collected the money and they spent it on sweets.)
I wonder if the snake-child was bullied - like the fat kid, or the clever kid, or the, well, freak kid. But no. Lunga is beautiful and confident, and this surely helped.
"All the other kids wished they were as flexible as me." She gives a proud smile. "But only I could do it."
Like her great-grandmother, Lunga might have stayed an amateur snake-woman. But one day, when Lunga was seven, her mother Nokuthula met a gymnast called Sylvester performing in the local shopping mall, and she told him about her incredible bending daughter.
"He came round and saw me, and he realised I didn't need any training to be a contortionist," she says.
Sylvester took her to auditions for the UniverSoul Circus, which was recruiting in South Africa. They took her on instantly, but insisted she go to circus school in Cape Town to sort out her routine, which in Lunga's case meant simply rolling her moves into a seven minute sequence.
When she was ready, she was literally taken away to join the circus - every English child's bedtime fantasy - in America. She had a chaperone called Catherine, and she did her lessons between hours on the sawdust, returning home every three months to see her family, whom she was already supporting financially.
Today, she earns about £50,000 a year - top whack for circus performers and the going rate for a photogenic snake-girl.
£I had never left my family before so it was pretty difficult," she says. "But I got used to it." And it was wonderful, she says, growing up in a Big Top.
She used to ride on the elephants' backs, and even polish their toenails. When a tiger escaped from its cage, she says, it padded backstage and eyeballed her.
It must have been the oddest of childhoods, and being a snake-girl had trials all of its own.
"I was only nine when all these responsibilities came crashing down on my head," she says. "I always wanted to go to a real school, and I never will now. It's nice to travel the world, but sometimes I wish I had done the things other teenagers do - go to school, play truant, get into trouble, sneak off to the movies. Just have fun.
"And it would have been nice to have people my own age around me. I was always the youngest."
Neither, she says, does she have time for that other rite of teenage passage, a boyfriend.
And as the circus people pop in and out of the office, I realise she is a bit of a pet. They kiss her, and pat her, and treat her like a (child) star.
This explains her strange combination of sophistication and naivete. "I was always a tomboy," she says. "I was never girlie. I never liked Barbie."
Of course she didn't. Barbie is for girls growing up in the suburbs and dreaming of something more interesting - not for tiny snake-girls taking their bows.
"Although," and she sits up straight as she says this, "I am trying to be like a lady."
She is also continuing her studies by correspondence course between shows, but she doesn't know when she will retire.
"I have seen contortionists in their 70s," she tells me, "so who knows how long I will do it for?"
How does a snake-girl maintain herself? She says she eats very healthily: no carbohydrates, hardly any meat, and chocolate only once a week.
"I have to keep my weight straight," she adds, adding, very tactfully: "My mother is not a small person."
Are there any fat contortionists? "There are fat contortionists," she says, "but it doesn't look attractive, because you wear very tight costumes."
She joined Africa! Afrika! two years ago, when she was 16. When they were in Frankfurt, Lunga went to see a specialist about her 'flexibility' and he X-rayed her in a contortion position.
"He said I am as normal as everyone else. I am just more flexible."
Even when she occasionally makes a mistake in her act, she never falls, and she has never injured herself. Her super-bendy body just carries her through.
"If I fall, everyone thinks it is a new trick," she says.
She loves being snake-girl. "I like to torture people with it," she says. "People scream and cry when I do my act. A lot of them think it is disgusting."
She seems rather thrilled by this. "I am different. And I like to be different."
She certainly is. But doesn't she ever wish it would go away and she could be normal? "Even if I wanted it to leave, it wouldn't," she says, adding vaguely: "I still contort in my sleep.
"It isn't nice to be compared to a snake. The flexibility of a snake is very good: but the other characteristics are the worst."
She falls to the floor and does her snake act. Her body seems to be made of rubber. She melts, bending her legs over her head, tucking her hands and feet into places non-snake-girls simply cannot reach. It does look wildly creepy, even disgusting.
And she chatters away, bending herself over again. "People always ask me: 'How do you do this?' But I don't know. Nobody knows. Only God knows."
"Do you know," she adds, "that I can't do a straight hand-stand? I'm too flexible." And, smiling at me like a child with an incredible toy, she sticks her foot on her head. Again.
That Was Friday,June 4, 2010 (gailing OJT ako)may usapan ang Barkada na pupunta Sa metrowalk because ReX Pega invited us.MEdyo matagal narin kasi na di na kami nagkita dahil may mga OJT kami sa kanya kanyang company plus may work narin ang iba.Excited ang lahat, Heather Balmas,Iomerta Dalama LItera,Lauren Balanay, ako at ang nag invite sa amin na si REX pega,
Rex pega is a Boyfriend of Caroline Dizon W/c is sya talaga ang Kaibigan namin na nagwowork na sa call center. Excited narin kasi kami makita si Carol kasi isasama daw ni Rex,
Ang usapan magkita kita kami sa Robinson Galeria Foodcourt, tapos dediritso na kami sa metrowalk, pero late si Iomerta. So Dinala kami ni Rex palabas sa Robinson at Tumawid sa overpass papuntang POEA, kampanti kaming sumama kasi mabait na kaibigan itong si Rex ( ako pa nga tumulong para magkalapit sila ni Carol) sumunod naman kami, umuulan pa that time. Sabi ko san ba tau pupunta eh? "Basta sa mahal ko"sagot nitong si rex. So masaya kami kasi makikita namin si Carol at sabay sabay na pupuntang metrowalk.
Pero that time nagtataka ako kasi alam ko kung saan nagwowork si Carol at callcenter yun, nagpatuloy kami sa paglalakad kasunod namin si heather na kausap si lauren na magkasukob sa payong , samantalang kami naman ni Rex ang magkasabay. Si Rx tahimik na Tao pero nagtaka ako that time habang naglalakad kami sa overpass ang daldal nya at parang di ko lunos isipin na tatanongin nya ako sa buhay buhay, yun pala kasama na yun sa plano nya ( marketing plan kuno).Sabi ko " si iomerta paano yun?" " susunduin ko nalang sya sa robinson ulit"sagot ni rex.
Hangat sa nakarating kami sa isang 2 to 3 level na building, at nakita ko sa aking ulirat ang Logo ng UNO networking.Nagulat ako " NAG UUNO KAYO NI CAROL?" "alam mo ang uno?"sagot naman ni Rex."OO naman". Actually alam ko na ang uno, kasi part of my Course na Business Ad in Economics itong marketing na ito. Aside from that Bad image na talaga ang UNO.So tuloy tuloy kami pagpasok sa my parking lot. Ayaw na talaga namin pa pumasok kahit sa gate pa, pero ang pangako sa amin ni Rex andun daw sa loob si Carol at lam namin na di kami ipapahamak ni carol, "nasa loob si carol pumasok na tayo" sabi ni Rex. "hindi palabasin mo si carol" Sabi Ko.
Sa tapat ng kinatayuan namin may kotse na kaparada. Ang Daming tao talaga, very alarming scenario kasi puro youth ang mga nanduon, (ganito ang drama at di namin alam na kasama na kami sa scripted na style nlia)kinatok ni Rex ang kotse,lumabas ang babae nasa edad siguro ng 18 pataas nakashort na maiksi nakamake up at kung tutoosin mukang pokpok talaga, ( alam ko naman ang nagpupumilit na mayaman at bsa galaw ng tunay na mayaman at napag aralan namin yan sa personality dev.) "sya pala ang amo ko" ika ni rex. So may diplomacia naman kami ni HEather ( close friend ko at ECONOMICS DIN)at lauren (partner ko sa dancesport,marketing major,OJT sa ABS-CBN), so kinamayan namin ang BABAE. Pinindut nya ang remote ng kotse, gusto nya kami papasukin, "hindi na po kasi gabi na" Sabi ni Heather.(tahimik lang si REX) "hindi po kami interested kasi alam na namin yan" SAbi ko naman, "yan yung nagkakaso dati sa Podiom dati office nyo right?"sabi ni heather. natahimik ang babae, at nang nagsalita na ang yabang, Accountancy daw sya sa PSBA , her name is Sheryl Espiritu ( di namin alam kung totoo name nya, kasi sabi ni heather noong pinakita ang ID nya, Di daw pangalan nya nakalagay, diko rin alam kung props ba yun) "uuwi na kami"sabi namin. "Hindi, kasi ganito pano nyo malalaman kung di nyo subokan."sabi ni sheryl. " Ayaw naming subukan kasi Mahirap na" sabi ko. " May Madali pa ba sa Mundo" pilosopong sagot nitong babae. Nang init ako sa sinabi kasi naniniwala ako na mahirap talaga ang buhay pero perspective mo na yan kung pahirapan mo lalo sa pag iisip mo, eh gebin na nga mahirap tas iicipin mo pa. "Yun na nga miss eh, Kayo na nag sabi na walang madali ngayun pero bakit ang dali nyong kumita?.sagot ko naman, "para malaman nyo pasok muna kau"talagang gustong gusto kaming ipasok. " alam mo ba yan ( tinoro ang kotse) kita ko lang yan sa loob ng ^ months,may condo na ko, pinag aaral kko mga kapatid ko sa LASALLE," pagmamayabang pa niya. while she was trying to convienced us, nagmamasid ako sa paligid, napansin ko sa Gilid Namin, gantong ganto din ang ginagawa, lumabas sa kotse tapos ayun nah. kunyari sa kanila yung kotse. Pero di talaga kami nadala sa hypnotism style nila. Lumabas kami at nauna na ko, hinila ko si LAuren kasi sya lang ang may payong taht time, bumalik kami sa Robinson, nang makaratimg kami doon nag init ako, pinag sabihan ko si REX," rex itong pinaggagawa mo ba ay alam ni CArol to. Binigyan mo pa sya ng sakit kaya di nakapunta dito, ung totoo, member ba sya sa UNO kasi alam ko na di papasok si Carol Jan kasi ECONOMICS sya, at alam mo ba na may senior kami na graduating at di naka graduate dahil nabaliw sa UNO" galit ko kung sabi sa kanya. tsaka lang nya inanamin ang totoo na hindi pala, Inamin narin nya ang lahat sa amin , humingi say ng tawad, pinatwad namin pero di na ganun ang tiwala na ibibigay namain sau, alam ko desipirado kana para mabawi mo ang 7300 mo, Kung nabawi mo na,ay talagang gusto mo kumita, ang masakit duon gusto mo pa kami ipahamak, alam namin ang networking, At di kami against sa inyo kasi malawak utak namin, ANG pangit lang ay nabubuhay kau sa kasinungalingan
Masama ang loob namin, nasayang oras namin, nilibre kami ni REX ng MCDO kasi natanggap na daw nya ang 5k na sahod nya sa UNO.
Dumating na din si IOMERTA at di nya alam na may nagyayari na pala sa amin, WE try to pretend na masaya kami. pero inamin narin ni REX kay IOMERTA na NAG networking sya, natatakot ata sya na baka magggaling pa sa amin.
WE decided ba pumunta nalang sa MAYSHA disco at nag DISCO kami, Di na DAW makakasama si REX kasi MAy work pa daw sya. PERO bulong samin ni iomerta na may simenar pa yun. KASi si Iomerta nakaranas na din pala
Overall masaya naman ang naging Araw ko kasama sila, naging LEsson ko rin yun at sa mga kaibigan ko
Si IOMERTA MAY KARANASAN NADIN SA UNO ABANGAN ANG KANYANG KWENTO

When it comes of eating, im not that kind of conscious, all i know is that as long na mabubusog ako, ay ok na. Until na pasok ako sa Meralco as a Trainee, Wow nakaka mangha ang mga tao dito, lalo na sa Salary Administration office, grabeh sila mag measure ng calories sa mga foods na kinakain nila, they were like paranoid in measuring what they took,
Doon ko lang din nalaman na Man should take 1600 to 1800 calories and woman should take 1400 to 1600 calories daily, And when you consumed more than the required limit, you need to burn it.......
Grabe tlaga, pati ako, nawa na Kay sir REnz Ramos, gusto na sya mag quite sa pagdidiet nya, i noticed him na naghihina na sya, pero wala ako magagawa, talagang gusto nya mag pasting para lang pumayat, sa bagay......an office environment really need a healthy lifestyle kasi di naman ka vigorous ang nature ng work nila par maburn ang calories na natake nila.....
Every week nagpaptimbang sila to determine kung nag increase ba or decease ba ng timbang nila... pero sometimes may pakonswelo din naman sila para sa sarili nila, pag bumababa ang timbang nila....... ang mag papizza ....
Natatawa nalng ako sa kanila " KUNG ANG IBANG PILIPINO BINIBILANG NILA ANG BAWAT HALAGA NG SUBO NG PAGKAIN, SILA NAMAN BIBIBILANG NILA NG ANG CALORIE CONTENT SA BAWAT SUBO NILA" THEY ARE FORTUNATE TO EXPERIENCE SUCH PREDICAMENT,
