U & I: Week Five
“U & I” chronicles my life as an intern of Unilever Philippines (ULP). The blog entries under this series would only include my personal affairs with my fellow interns, with the company and its employees. Any kind of corporate information about the said company would never be written here.
Our company-wide project is not only making tangential interference to our department-centric jobs and stints but is also generating some sort of personal corporate dilemma. Sometimes, I just want to escape and make some Absence-Without-Official-Leave diva drama. Every time I have this kind of cognitive ranting, Cezar’s (HR, Learning & Expertise King) words automatically dives into my psychological pool: It’s hard work here at Unilever. I am at least happy that I am touching and learning the corners of the real world in its grandest form. After this internship program, I will let everyone feel my body that’s made of steel.

Prolificacy

Observant people tell me that I blog more often than before. Well, I think it's even an understatement. I rarely blog every day, or even every week--I think I blog only twice or thrice a month. And this is a justifiable excuse because of the different justifiable forces that prevent me to do so. If something justifiable inhibited you to do something, then the direct causes of inhibition would also… Continue reading

Most of my recent (an overstatement) entries here at my personal blog were mere links or teasers for my academic blog entries. This is reflective of the fact that I don’t have a personal life since most of my hours were spent for the thing called academics. Now I feel the pressure to tell stories I weren’t able to tell during my leave of absence. To lessen my… Continue reading
My Unilever Internship Revalida

A rainy Saturday. I'm here at the bus, blogging about my internship revalida at Unilever. Of course, I won't be pouring so much technicalities about it since I might be sued for breach of contract. Anyway, there is an undying emotion about what I felt about the revalida--I felt I delivered a mediocre one, I felt I left too many loopholes. My panel consisted of relevant people: My bosses and… Continue reading

I am 172 lbs as of my last dinner. And hell yeah, I hate it as much as my friends love it. Haha. I really don't know why I gained weight this much. Well, the most accurate suspect I can point to is my Unilever Internship Life. Wow, we were fed like hungry kids. Okay, that was an overstatement. Unilever is really maalaga when it comes to their 25 growing (physically… Continue reading

If you are about to have your internship or post-graduation job hunt, one of the things you do is create an account in some popular job search engines such as Jobstreet and JobsDB.

So it's been a while since the last time I blogged here at ALPSaguado.com. I just opened a new blog which is academic in nature: The Vinculum. There, you will actually see first hand what I learn in school (and yes, I do learn something). In other news, I am happy to say that this would be my last year in the University--well, hopefully. Part of the last… Continue reading
