My hands are tired but one more blog before I rest So basically, you know, I just transcribed, you know, an audio, like, you know, that is more than, like, an hour, you know. That was how the speaker was in that audio that I transcribed. Just to give you an idea. I listen to an audio and I type what I hear. Sometimes, there are days that I have to do that and some are long or short audios. This is the longest one that I have transcribed so far and I literally did it the whole day. I couldn't even visit noise or read. That's why after this one, I will go straight to bed. I hands and arms are already already having fever but I have to push one more article. That audio would have taken less than an hour if only the speaker didn't have to say "like" and "you know" every after two words. Not only that, there are a lot of repeated words. Some clients will require to remove those repeated words. There are other clients though that require it to be verbatim including fillers like "um" and "oh" - basically every word that you hear the speaker/s said. Of course I can't disclose what I transcribed for that will be violation of privacy. I'm just thankful though that the audio is clear. There are only technicalities like some parts where the audio is garbled or overlapping voices which are inevitable. Remember last time I said that I have no tasks and I was so ready to work only to find out I only have few tasks? I wished I had more job to be done and now I did but it took me the whole day to do it. Sometimes we have to be careful what we wish for. That's why we have to take it one day at a time. Be grateful if you have work and be grateful too if you don't. That will give balance. Don't be stressed with that you can't control. Sitting in front of the computer all day long is not healthy. I was able to manage to do some 2-3 minute exercises in between. I was planning actually to go out for a sunset if I can finish my work sooner but I just finished it 5 minutes ago and it's already 9:12 p.m. here as of this writing. The weather today is good that's why it's a good day supposedly to go out. I don't usually eat dinner anymore for as I have been saying, I eat a lot during the day not only with mealtime but also in between that's why I can do away with dinner. If I feel like eating, I'd just make a peanut butter sandwich and pair it with hot coffee. We ran out of bread today so I decided to go buy along with eggs and some chips or crisps as what kuya Ed calls them. That gave me a brief break from what I am doing and to rest my eyes as well. We do need to procrastinate from time to time in order to recharge ourselves. I was in the mood earlier to watch a movie or a series but there is always time for that later. I'll probably just watch some clips in facebook until I fall asleep. So I bid you all good night. Hoping to visit your articles later on and read how your day went or what was it all about that you have written.

Ay ay thanks for that affirmation. Procrastination is not that bad at all. We have to squeeze it between our busy day so we won't be burned out. And thanks for the reminder, let us be grateful still if we don't have much to do.
You are hardworking and I appreciate your efforts to write blogs. Keep it up!
Hahaha naalala ko yung nagtranscribe ako sa QAworld 😂 Paunahan makakuha ng calls tas mahirap matranscribe yung napupunta sakin 😂 Dami kong mali kaya minsan walang bayad or maliit lang haha.
