Zobel Galilee

September 17, 2010

Its the end of the first term exams at Zobel. The students are going home, breathing a long sigh of relief for surviving the week, the teachers are scrambling to finish checking papers/projects and to encode grades, while new teachers and administrative employees of Zobel are getting ready to leave for their Galilee at Calatagan, Batangas!

The 2 days and 1 night spent at Batangas was a chance for new employees to sit down, talk, and unwind. It was a chance to reflect on the 3 months that they have been working in Zobel. Of course they also had a lot of fun! By the beach, swimming pool and house.

At the end of the Galilee people went home with smiles on their faces, great memories in their minds and wonderful stories to share the next day!

Hopefully, when the next Galilee occurs, the next batch will have as much fun as we did!

Her Last Phone Call...was from her Cell Phone

Her last phone call was from her new cell phone.

Do you see the motorcycle?

Now do you see it?

The Honda Crotch Rocket rider was travelling at approximately 85mph. The VW driver was talking on a cell phone when she pulled out from a side street, apparently not seeing the motorcycle. the riders reaction was not sufficient enough to avoid this accident.

The car had 2 passengers and the bike rider was found INSIDE the car with them. The Volkswagen actually flipped over from the force of the impact and landed 20 feet from where the collision took place.

All 3 involved (2 in the car and the bike rider) were killed instantly. This graphic demonstration was placed at the Motorcycle Fair by the Police and Road Safety Department...

Pass this on to car drivers or soon to be new drivers, or new motorcycle owners AND ESPECIALLY EVERYONE YOU KNOW WHO HAS A CELL PHONE!!!!!

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Save a life...

Stop talking on cell phones and texting while trying to drive.

The life you may save may be your own...or mine...

On-Screen Keyboard

Alright, I'll make this short.

Our keyboard is broken! Well, I don't think its the keyboard...I tried using another keyboard with this computer and it didn't work! I think something must be wrong with the keyboard port on the back of the CPU.

Thanks to this problem, I've had to use a On-Screen Keyboard.

Charice Pempengco

Today I went to the mall with my Mom. I accompanied her to by a Baptismal gift for a colleague of hers. While there we had a little bonding time. We had lunch at Sbarro and did a little shopping.

I bought Charice Pempengco's International debut album!


I heard her carrier single Pyramid. It was great! Now I have heard Charice sing before and I am always amazed at how she doesn't sound like a Filipina at all. When she talks you can clearly hear the heavy Filipino accent; but not when she sings. Its truly a marvel!

7-Elections GULP your candidate

Good evening to you all,

So the elections are done and all that is left now is to count the number of votes per candidate. I don't like the fact that people still continued to vote for ERAP! Haven't they learned anything at all?! I also don't like the fact that ERAP still ran for office! AFTER he was given a court order not to if they released him from prison.

He's unbelievable!!!!!

Anyway, I participated in this survey that 711 has. Its a survey that asks you which Presidential Candidate will you vote for. Well, I voted for GIBO TEODORO. After the elections, 711 sent me a gift certificate which allows me to get a 16oz GULP drink for free!


711 gave me 5 of these gift certificates. On the bottom of the gift certificates it says that its only valid until 5/4/10; but 711 sent me an email saying that the gift certificates' validation were extended until 5/31/10.

IMPORTANT! BEWARE OF THIS MODUS OPERANDI

Dear all,

I cannot stop myself from sharing this with all of you.

It all started when I received a call from someone claiming that he was from Globe and he asked me to shutdown my phone for 2 hours for 3G update to take place. As I was rushing for a meeting, I did not question and shutdown my cell phone.

After 45 minutes I felt very suspicious since the caller did not even introduce his name. I quickly turned on my cell phone and I received several calls from my family members and the others were from the number that had called me earlier - 3954380.

I called my parents and I was shocked that they sounded very worried asking me whether I am safe. My parents told me that they had received a call from someone claiming that they had me with them and asking for money to let me free. The call was so real and my parents even heard 'my voice' crying out loud asking for help. My parent was at the bank waiting for next call to proceed for money transfer. I told my parents that I am safe and asked them to lodge a police report.

Right after that I received another call from the guy asking me to shutdown my cell phone for another 1 hour which I refused to do and hung up. They keep calling my cell phone until the battery had run down. I myself lodged a police report and I was informed by the officer that there were many such scams reported. MOST of the cases reported that the victim had already transferred the money! And it is impossible to get back the money.

Be careful as this kind of scam might happen to any of us!!! Those guys are so professional and very convincing during calls. If you are asked to shut down your cell phone for updates by the service provider, ASK AROUND! Your family or friends might receive the same call.

Be Safe and Stay Alert!

Please pass around to your family and friends!
