Being in a fruit diet

This June 2020, I was able to start a new diet - fruitarian diet. I eat fruits and much more fruits one at a time as I am to keep my immune system more strong and healthy to fight diseases. And in the long run, I feel better and feel healthy most of the time. I feel less pain in my foot as I am always being attacked by inflammation.

Being on this diet, I started to learn to take care of my self in terms of hygiene, social distancing and the unending adjustment of wearing face mask. What matters to me is to keep the immune system strong enough to able to overcome diseases.

Going back to Pasig City

After President Duterte have declared that the entire Metro Manila will be under modified ECQ on May 16th, our company needs also to cut down costs by ending the contract for our accommodation. So it's now time to go back to the City of Pasig, the green city.

To my present company, thanks for the two-month free accommodation with AC and stable Internet connection including the shuttle service going from and to work.

I was able to return to the city safe through the company's shuttle service. Finally, I meet the same people at home again and able to adjust from two months for AC-powered room to just a fan-powered bed space. Anyway, I am flexible as much as I can at whatever situations I must be in.

My lockdown diary

When President Duterte started some measures to protect the country against COVID-19, I am one of the Filipinos who are affected by that measures. The Philippine government imposed a lock down (enhanced community quarantine or ECQ) in Metro Manila and Luzon including some provinces in Visayas and Mindanao to contain the virus, I was lucky that the government still care for its citizens.

My company started to make some measures, too to keep the business continue and I am a lucky employee to stay for two months free under its accommodation from March 18, 2020 to May 16, 2020. This includes free food and shuttle services going from and to work.

A bible study through YouTube

I still able to attend church services like Prayer Meeting, Worship Services and Thanksgiving via YouTube and Zoom app. The place I stay comes with stable Internet connection so there should be no problem for me to attend services like that. I am also able to access TV channels via CignalPlay app including series and shows on Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, HBO Go and Amazon Prime Video.

I was also able to keep myself busy with studying online. I will try also to signup my online course for Psychology Diploma and hoping will finish the subject within this year.

Team outing with new colleagues

It has been over two months since I resigned from my job as QA in a company located in Pasig. People change jobs as they see fit to move to another company for some reason: greener pasture and hopefully a better place to work for.

So I joined a another BPO company located in Taguig City. It is for a pioneering account that provide support to a streaming service which was launched in the United States. I am hopefull that it will launch in the Philippines by June 2020 or earlier.

The date February 17th came and we have our team outing for the first time in Calatagan, Batangas. Around 4-5 travel time from Taguig City. This should solidify the team members by knowing each other, group games, swimming, team lunch, etc. Everyone of us is happy of course. A special mention to Ace, our teammate who was not able to attend due to some reason.

Moving forward to another team outing again. The last time I visit the sea was around April 2016 when I was working for a company under market research industry. That was in Nasugbu, Batangas.
