Search for Mr. and Miss Sportsfest 2011

This week CAMMSI is having their Sports fest celebration. As part of the program is their search for Mr. and Miss Sportsfest 2011 which has been held today at their school campus. All the students are the participants, from nursery to elementary level. My daughter is still in nursery level and she's also participating. I acquire her different outfits for the program even though I know that she is 50/50 to climb on the stage.

Today is the awaiting moment after the days they delivered their talent, worn swimwear attire, etc. At first my student climbed on stage for the production number but the rests she became an audience. She aggressively requested me to change her outfit like the other candidates every changing but when it comes to stage presentation she's on backstage. lol! Anyway, she's only 3 years old. She needs to eat sacks of rice first before proceeding to that stage. Besides, her daddy is very against in beauty pageant.

At the Vancouver Airport

At this moment I am already at Vancouver Airport waiting for my flight for HongKong. I still have couple of hours so I am entertaining myself for this time because tears are keep falling down from above. It is hard controlling it. For the meantime I am enjoying the free Wi-Fi while hubby is at the lobby taking a nap waiting till morning to catch the 1st ferry schedule.

Bye bye Vancouver, see you next year.

HR Management and Tools

I remember how I dreamed of working in the office at the Human Resource Department when I was in college. When I started looking for job after graduation I enjoyed being interviewed by the HR personnel. In fact I was imagining myself as an interviewer. I don't know why I like that position, maybe just my passion. I know being on the Human Resource Management involves big responsibilities. Each employee has assigned task that needs to be fulfilled. And not only that, they are also evaluated based on their performance like other office departments.

In every business organization the Human Resource department serves as the heart in the entire sectors. The HR Manager should see to it that her subordinates are performing their duties accordingly using the HR Tools. They have the guidelines that needs to be follow from training, recruitment and other areas. When I had render my resignation Lexmark, who happened as my last employer I experienced to have a personal exit interview by one of the HR personnel. With all my past employers I can say that Lexmark was really on top in terms of HR Management. I was so impressed. Other business establishments should also finance their HR with appropriate and updated tools.

On Greek Fest

Hubby brought me to the place in Victoria where the Greek Fest was held. There were lots of Greek foods for sale, and there were lots of people too. There was a portion on the program which I did not understand and that was the folks on the stage singing Greek songs. As a respect of their culture, I just listened and clapped my hands like other people did after the folks done singing. It was fun though.

So below is the photo.

Two Different Currency Charts

I've been monitoring pretty closely these two monitory currencies, Canadian Dollar and US Dollar because that's where our earning source comes from. If the economy is hurt we are also hurt.

This first chart illustrates the currency conversion of Canadian dollar to Philippines Peso for about a week. As usual it is rising and falling.

This 2nd chart above is a chart of US dollar to Philippines Peso. So far it is getting better. Hopefully the economy will continuously run as what everybody is expecting.

The Empress Hotel in Victoria

The Empress Hotel is the oldest 5 star hotel in Victoria, BC. I have never check in there but just seen it and visited their few boutique when hubby took me there. It is a nice place though. I like their garden because it has lots of colorful beautiful flowers. This hotel is just a walking distance to Victoria Harbour where there are lots of tourists coming in ride on cruise ships from different countries.

This is the front view of the hotel.

U.S. Govt. Gave Syphilis to Guatemalan

Few minutes ago the shocking news made my eyes open very wide when one of the CNN reporters reported about the experiment conducted by the U.S. government on the year 1940s. It is about the STDs being spread to Guatemalan people. For me that is so inhuman! How could they do that? The worst thing there is, the government didn't ask permission to perform such weird experiment.
How could the Guatemalan people handle this horrible news?
