Loving My Yellow Lovebird Posted by Anma , Friday, October 2, 2009 at 9:42 AM, in Labels: lovebird

This is birdie; named him Birdie because until now I don't know his sex yet and just assumed that he is a male!(lol)  We just found Birdie one night outside our apartment looking so tired.  Birdie even could not fly for so long.

The following day we bought Birdie a nice cage, food and toys! At first birdie was so afraid of us but now that he is comfortable living with us, Birdie even replied every time I call his name! Isn't it cute?

I love watching Birdie every time he do his acrobats and tricks. Especially when he is taking a bath on his own! He also wakes us up every morning around 6.30 am to 7.00 am to bring him outside the apartment.  He is so adorable; a real charm!

I am a PGMA Scholar! Posted by Anma , Thursday, October 1, 2009 at 12:36 PM, in Labels: Medial Transcriptionist, TESDA

For the past years I have been planning to enroll a Medical Transcription course in TESDA (Technical Education and Skills Development Authority) but I do not have the time and most importantly, the money.  But luckily, I was able to avail of the Pangulong Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo scholarship and started my Medical Transcription training at Xynet, one of the TESDA accredited centers in Makati.  It is a 20-day, 5 hrs a day, with Sunday as off day, training.  I am really happy that finally I will be soon-to-be licensed MT, of course after I pass the qualifying exam (NC II), which is also free for the first take (500php re-take) for the scholar. 

This is the first time that I avail any of the government programs.  I am so glad that PGMA focuses on helping Filipinos develop new skills to increase our chance to be hired locally and internationally.

Three days more and finally I am a TESDA graduate and hopefully I can find an entry level MT job soon.
