it pours

rainy days give me luck. the last time i remember it was raining, i received a text message from my current boss that they are gonna take me in their company. today, the rain saved me again. i received a call from a prospect employer asking me to drop by their office tomorrow to take a look on their job offer and get instructions on my pre-employment examination. it was an ecstatic feeling upon learning that i got the job. on top of that, they also agreed to my salary expectation! what a good way to start things anew!

so the beginning starts again, now.

the first half of 2010 has been a crazy ride for me. after around 8 months, i left my "almost-dream-job" of working with one of manila's sought-after photographer and top stylist last february. it was an 8 month filled with great challenges. it was a one-man team but i survived! and i enjoyed its perks like eat buffet in manila's 5 star hotels, meet celebrities and manila's socialites and travel out of town. that job also opened an opportunity for me to fly to boracay for an advertising campaign. it was all "firsts" for me.

february came and new opportunity came in. it was an immersion to the "culture." it was a great experience but then there are certain circumstances that prompted me to leave again. so yes, i'm having a new job, again.

rainy days give me hope. i can feel greater things brewing up.

i-tune

i will live like i'm dying.

know it all

i know You know I badly like it. so please help me get it.

i want to receive the sweetest text message for this week.

thanks. :)

reunion

here i go again...blogging.

i've been stuck up for my life's predictable hysteria. un-moving on, employment dilemma, job search, grad school, wishful thinking and blah-blahs. i had this crazy idea when i tried to stop writing on this space - that bloggers have an empty life that they wanted to fill-in. drafting whatever they can write about themselves and trivial stuff online can make their life go round and round. i may had a bad judgment. seriously, i stopped blogging to conceal my mishaps, dull and crazy daily living and not-worth remembering misadventures. now how do we define emptiness?

today i'm starting to draft my own version of sui generis.

in the next thirty days, i hope to make sort of a difference. not social change though. leave it to our politicians and social advocates. i'll make my life easier. i'll make this blog more hopeful.

on a birthday post

today's my 23rd bday.

nothing's so special except that i'm just one year older. good thing that almost everybody whom i'm expecting to greet me have sent their wish of a happy birthday either thru sms, facebook, multiply and friendster - except for this one person. (or you may have forgotten your promise...now i'm having second thoughts on greeting you on your birthday next week)

btw, i'm still waiting for a call from an employer. i guess this one's a perfect birthday present. to the employer: please read the application form that i filled out so that you can arrive at the best idea on what's on my birthday wishlist. :)

today, i have to stay at home and finish my school requirements. birthday is such a great excuse to be away from work for at least one day. then i'm off to a dinner tonight.

happy birthday to me. thanks to everyone. :)

decode

february had been sort of adjustment on my end. it became a month of trying to stretch almost everything and it also tried to check my flexibility. i've never thought that even a good 8 months of good and hardwork is gonna be overlooked or not even noticed at all. i kept questioning if meritocracy still exist that even the lousiest persons are still offered promotion or even a chance to move up in an organization. and the answer is probably.

i don't know if graduate school has been helping me to get what i want. but wednesday and thursday nights have been very good companions as they gave me an escape to the reality in which i'm trying to disintegrate myself. i have this newly opened consciousness on dealing with trivial things and it sucks big time. at some point, the experiences i have been through in the past seven years of independence is something that i wish should have not rapidly took place. i'm going back to being idealistic. err. nevermind.

green is blue

i decided not to go to work today for a number of reasons:

1) i don't have enough reasons to complain yet i'm complaining.
2) it seems that i've been very ungrateful with the people and things around me.
3) i just can't fully understand how meritocracy works
4) patience is a foreign word to me
5) love hurts and when you're hurting you've loved
6) i'm a little sick
7) i know i'll never love this way so i'll keep holding on... (translation: wait in vain til death)

and other reasons...

feb1 is a lonely day.
