WAHM Life Rocks

Hello guys, girls, beks and all! How are you? How was your weekend? Ambilis ng araw 'no? It's Tuesday again, then tomorrow is Wednesday. Mid-week na naman. Grabe na 'to! Well, ganun daw yata talaga 'di ba 'pag busy tayo, time runs so fast.

The Kwento. Speaking of busy. I'm so happy to share with you na I started training na for a new work-at-home job yesterday. Well, I've been doing freelance jobs naman na ever since I quit my office job in July last year. Have you heard of Upwork? It used to be Odesk, and now Upwork na siya. That's where I've been looking for "rakets" since last year. I had the chance to work with a few clients. I did a little bit of VA (virtual assistant) jobs, cold calling, data entry, lead generation, web research tsaka mga iba. All of my clients, except for one, were very easy to work with, very mabait, very considerate. As in! Unfortunately, there was a time in, I think, May when I had a terribly serious problem with my internet connection. As in wala akong broadband dito sa bahay for 2 months. Nahiya naman ako sa mga clients ko kaya I had no choice but to make paalam to them. I had like 5-6 contracts in Upwork back then. Some of them have not ended my contract with them until now. They just paused it. Baka hoping pa sila na mag-work pa ulit ako for them. Hihi!

I became a firm believer that whatever's happening to me right now is supposed to be happening. (My family jokes every time something unfortunate happens to someone, even as simple as nadapa or natisod, na nakasulat sa book of fate ang unfortunate incident na 'yun, that it was destined to happen to that person that way on that day at that time. We would say, "Ganun talaga! Nakasulat 'yan!") And whatever is meant to be mine will be mine at the right time. Timing lang. Timing is everything eka nga.

So saan na nga ba patungo ang kwento ko na'to? Haha! Okay, speaking of timing. A little back story.
