Thursday, August 14 Mediocrity Sucks
The word itself is so annoying. It reminds me of Sir Silvestre's comments on my plates. I'm now starting to believe he's right in calling me that. Maybe I'm not meant to be great. Maybe I should not waste my time fulfilling my stupid destiny in horoscopes. Fuck astrology! I'm in the brink of a career suicide. Should I succumb to capitalism or not? Should I eat all my "panlalait" to those yuppies in Libis, Ortigas, and Makati? Should I be the force or the workforce? Shit! I can picture some of my high school classmates and teachers gloating at me and telling me "pa-UP-UP ka pa kase!" Parang ayaw ko na panindigan... It sucks that there are no second chances in this lifetime. Believe me, there are none... Monday, August 11 Happy Birthday To Me
Happy Birthday to me Happy Birthday to me Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday... I wish many more birthdays to come... hehehe... cliche! Happy Birthday to me. Wednesday, August 6 Reborn
It really feels great to finally succeed in something after a long slump. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I am a registered and licensed architect already. According to my PRC ID, I am the 18,127th architect in the Philippines. Well, I can still remember that my boss' PRC number goes by 2,000's. So that means around 16,000 architects came between us. But who cares about numbers anyway? I have finally fulfilled my parents' condition before I can venture into other fields/ careers. Say, what will I try first? web designing? programming? script writing? or call centering (?... hahaha!)? Anyway, believe me when I say my hands are full with career shifting plans. I'm not really in dire need of environment change, it's just that I want to experience something new. Since graduation, I've known nothing but breathing architecture. It sometimes suffocates me to death. But as my mom always says, " if you don't, why took that course in the fisrt place?" Now, imagine her saying that in her usual I-told-you-so tone. Geeezzz! Earmuffs please... At least now that I'm done with the one thing that she bugs me about, I can go on with MY life. With this new taste of freedom, I plan to change interests too. I will retire my old bball sport in exchange for tennis. Jomig always tells me it's a better form of excercise than aerobics, which mind you, never really did anything to my body! I will call Ranky tomorrow, probably sign up for membership in our subdivision's tennis association. I also want to get involve in church... not that I have decided to become a saint now, but it really feels good to hold on to Someone (not to mention being able to blame Him in the process... hehehe). Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh.... a sigh of relief, a sigh of freedom, a sigh of promise that I will never let anyone bring me down this time. I'm a Leo remember? :) |
