Hi, I'm Janina. I'm an online Filipino specialist. I work as an admin assistant in a talent management company based in Hollywood. So at around 5:30, I wake up, I wash my face, I brush my teeth, and then I get water. I turn on my laptop to start working. I work at 6am until 1pm in Hollywood Pacific Time. It will be 3pm soon. I work mid shift, so that's 3pm until 10pm As a talent management company, we help actors get film and TV projects from audition until contract negotiations. The first thing I do is I check if there are urgent issues, emails from actors or the managers or the casting offices. I've been working with them for more than a year now. So in a few months I'll be two years. And then I go to this platform called Breakdown Express. So this is where we look for roles. Part of our roster is Alice Amterson. She actually played raja's mom or Mrs. Kootrapalli in big Bang Theory. We also have Brad Benedict. He played Sheriff Jackson in the movie A Jasmine's Blues. And then after work, I usually do my home care physical therapy. I just found out recently that I have mild scoliosis. So this is due to bad posture. So right now I am doing my best to correct it or at least not worsen it. So I have regular physical therapy twice a week. So it's 4pm and my PT session has just finished. I always feel better after our session. Great news that I had is that my curve here, it already improved after a few sessions. So. Yee. And then my husband, he comes home around 5pm, we bund a little, and then I prepare to go to Jiu Jitsu. So this is the way to the BJJ class. We're here now at the Jiu Jitsu gym. This is Abby, my training partner for the day. She's also my sister. Hey, guys. So we're gonna warm up, we're gonna stretch, then we're gonna do some solo drills. Are you ready? So the session is over. It was very fun. We did some takedown submissions and also passing. How does this affect your scoliosis? Actually, in my six months of training, there was no negative effect. Thank you, onlinejobs ph for helping me find the employer that I have now. I'm so happy because it's in the same industry as my interests. You know that I love movies, I love TV shows, and aside from that, I am empowered economically. I get to travel a lot these days. So thank you so much. Much. I'm so grateful.
