Everything's fine ^_^

Went to the hospital for my check up early in the morning. Everything is fine, it's just my BP is low hahaha maybe because I lack sleep for a month now which is bad. I have to keep things balanced from now on but probably I'll still sleep late, I'll just take a nap after I send my daughter to school. I was able to have another Tetanus Toxoid vaccine and now my upper arm is aching.

I was able to work for an hour but I'm planning to make it two before I go to sleep. I have to work more since we'll be going to Manila this weekend and probably I might not able to work for long hours because of the event we will be attending. If I were to choose, I'd rather stay here and work all day but family gatherings only happens some time so it'll be better if I attend. Hopefully I'll really be able to work tomorrow non-stop.

Oyasumi!

oDesk again...

Last week has been a good week for me because I was able to complete my time quota on my hourly job which is 20 hrs/week. I managed to work for atleast 22 hrs since I've done another forum posting/ blog commenting task on top of that. I'm earning so little now, I know, but I think it can cover the internet and probably electricity bills for next month. Hopefully I could find another hourly job that pays well according to my posted hourly rate.

I've received a job interview last week, unfortunately I was declined. No bad feelings though because I think they didn't understand my list of available time when I answered one of their requirements which is to input my available hours on a Google doc file and sent over to them. The employer kept scheduling me for an interview which is too early for me although I could wake up at that time, unfortunately I am not confident enough because my laptop's microphone isn't working for Skype! So there, during the candidacy stage I told them that my available time is 9am onwards, she said they prefer candidates who can work weekdays at 5am to 8am in the morning which I am not available since I have to take care of my daughter's needs for school. So now I still keep on applying although most of it are declined by employer hehe.

Oh well, I know there will come a time that I'll be able to work for a job that pays well and isn't so much stressful since I'm pregnant. I'll just have to look and wait for it and keep working on the ONLY job that I have now (thanks to a fellow girltalker who recommended me). I am not losing my hopes yet, I could still apply for fixed price jobs if possible. I wanted to do transcriptions too and I'm actually applying for some job posts. Hopefully, I'll have the time to learn programming again even the basics like wordpress and such because it'll be good for my portfolio. I want to spend time learning how to get Facebook likes and other jobs that requires social networking too because I've seen a lot of job ads that requires them but I doubt if I'll enjoy those task. I don't know but I've got tired of Facebook actually teehee!

So there, I got to sleep now since I'll have my check up early in the morning tomorrow. Hopefully all will be fine especially the baby and hope I could still work even when he's out. Just two months left and I have to balance my time again with family stuff and work. Hope I'll be able to survive! Anyway, God will provide if we keep doing His will. c",)

Thank God its a jobless day! ^_^

This week is a very unproductive week for me. I wasn't able to work properly because of toothache and backache. I've been struggling for so many months now because of my cracked tooth and since I am pregnant, I am not allowed to have it extracted, not until after I give birth. I have to endure this for three months for the sake of my baby.

The backache was the result or my encoding job in Odesk. I worked for about five hours encoding PDF file to Microsoft excel. The job was easy but I guess my body can't handle the pressure at that time as I have to meet the deadline assigned by the employer. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to finish the five files handed over to me in one day. After two days, I was writing my sort of resignation letter to the employer that I can't work for the task on full time and she understood and ended the contract. I was glad that she ended it and gave me a 5-star rating after my comment for her.

I still don't have any feedback from my other employer, I want to finish that contract too since it is taking too long. It has been two weeks now for just $4 for the whole contract. My hourly rate job was also stopped last night and might resume by Monday, so I guess this weekend is also unproductive. I have a few job applications though and I can still apply for more if I'm in the mood to work.

My back still aches and I can't sit or stand for long now. Lying would be my best position so that I won't feel the pain. Streaming online also helps to kill the boredom. I still thank God for giving me an opportunity like this because I can rest and hopefully next week, will be a very productive week for me to earn more money.
