orientation - turnover of keys

-
jan. 26, 2008;

on this day, my beautiful u acted up giving me some reservations on whether i should attend the orientation concerning my little row unit [a.k.a pet house]. it was probably due to stress. i could remember being preoccupied and having second thoughts on whether i could successfully embark and finish my mission mactan.

the paragraph below is lifted from my now inaccessible friendster blog. it was written last jan. 28, 2008. i'm posting it here to remind me of my initial reservations of doing project mactan.

orientation proceeded just fine. had my keys, but my beautiful u was persistent. had to go back again and change ammu.

when i got to my little unit, it was then that things hit me big time. all right, what do i check? darn, their keys couldn’t get the doors open easily. ay ka gubot sa sulod. didn’t they even clean the house before turning over the unit to the homeowner? patay ka, vet. unsa imo buhaton? check the bathroom? how could i when i couldn’t even open it. i’ve around 15 keys with me, and none of them work. all right, vet. calm down. try the back door. darn, the keys again. door won’t even close. breathe..breathe… try the second floor. at least the doors were fine. the switches… outlets… mein, how do i know if the switches and outlets are okay. there’s no electricty, yet.. okay, room’s very dusty. unsa vet? kaya nimo balhin? you didn’t even think that there’d be a lot of work involved. just think about the service area. you’ve to do something with it so you can have a decent laundry area. cracks? how do you determine if the crack on the wall is fine or not??? the ceiling? unsay sakto na pagkatrabaho? patay…patay… call out for help. the very first person that came to my mind who could help me was mahiwagang john. perhaps he’s visiting his unit. i think i saw a bike that looks like his. i wouldn’t know for sure though. alright, pabaga ug nawong. text the person. don’t. you know he has a lot of rackets and you don’t want to impose. so don’t. bahala na. text. just say that if he’s really that busy then he may disregard the message. i did. okay, kaya ra ni, vet. just look around - if you intend to live solo, you should know how to do stuff like this. learn. LEARN. as i tried to convince myself that i could handle things on my own, my beautiful u made its presence known again. this time coupled with a little pain. there were no cr available for me then. I couldn’t be knocking on unknown neighbor’s doors and use their cr.

Updated: February 24, 2018 Did you know that you can actually view your Account Information online? For someone who rely heavily on the Internet for anything and everything, this bit of information came to me late. I honestly don't know when this government portal came to exist. Well, I do know that PAG-IBIG has a website, just not this feature. So if you have a PAG-IBIG housing loan, you can check your account balance and payment history for the last 12 months by visiting the PAG-IBIG website . How to Access the Site Simply input your housing loan account number , your first and last names , and the captcha to signify that you are not a robot, shown above. That's it! Once in, you can check your account information such as loan value, term, interest rate, take out date, outstanding balance, and monthly amortization. It also has a Billing Statement Email Facility feature where you can opt to receive your monthly billing statement through email. There, you are ...

Pay PAG-IBIG Housing Loan Via Metrobankdirect

A few days back, I went to PAG-IBIG Ayala Cebu Branch to submit the receipt of my realty tax payment for the years 2017 and 2018. While one can actually send the scanned receipt online, I opted to submit mine in person. Good thing I did so because then I learned about the following announcement: Apparently, effective July 2018, all housing loan borrowers are advised to pay their housing loans through different payment channels (as indicated in the announcement). Rather than wait for the July 1 start date, I thought I'd give paying via Metrobankdirect--Metrobank's online channel--a try. Actually, the reason I opened a Metrobank account was primarily for this purpose. However, I didn't use the account as I initially intended because paying over the counter gives my mother a chance to drop by Ayala Center. She normally does not go to the mall, but paying my HDMF housing loan gives her a reason to do so. But with this new policy, I guess I have no other choice but to comply...

5 Steps to Enroll Your Metrobank Account Online

Below is a quick run-through of how to enroll your Metrobank account online: The steps enumerated are from the perspective of those who have a Metrobank ATM savings account. Thus, the form in step no. 3 asks for details of your ATM Card number ( not your bank account ) and your PIN number---the same PIN number you key in when transacting with an ATM machine. Note that your ATM card only has sixteen (16) digits. The form will require you to input 19 digits. Thus, don't forget to add three zeroes after the card number to complete the 19-digit requirement. If you don't have an ATM account, but have a Metrobank credit card instead, you simply select Credit Card from the drop-down menu. The form that you will fill out then will include your credit card number, the embossed name (the one shown on your credit card), the CVC/CVV number (the 3-digit number at the back of your card), and the expiry date. The rest of the required fields are the same for both cards. Once you successf...
