I'm bored. hehehe... maybe it's because I haven't been doing anything these past few days. The business is doing ok but tiring though.. Well at least I could say that it's really hard earned money and it's more fulfilling that way.

Hayyyyy... Fate is kinda playing a little game on me. This lunch, something came up... I would describe it as something that has resurrected. My golly!! Just when I thought I'm already "settled". Of course I could always choose not to go for it if I'm happy with my "settled" life. I called my brother for a consultation. He said, there's nothing wrong since nothing is written pa naman and there's also nothing wrong if I give "it" a try. I just hope that I wouldn't have to wait so that the "other one" wouldn't have to wait also. I must admit that I have problems in making decisions ... maybe it's because I'm too cautious. Actually this situation is what I've tried to avoid this year. Too many options (more than 3) and I ended up with nothing. So here I am again.... being tested for my weakness. I must admit that the "resurrected" one has been my ultimate goal a couple of months ago. Oh well... my brother is right. There's nothing wrong ... I'll just give it a try.

What else??? We celebrated our 2 and 7/12 monthsary yesterday. He bought me a Harry Potter book 6. weeeeeeeee!!! I already have a pdf file of it but it's really boring reading it on an electronic device (especially it's so tagal for it to load on my pocket pc). I'm already on the 1/4 portion of the book. Although I already know some significant events I try to evade the temptation of searching for spoilers.... hehehe.. After this, finally... BOOK 7 here I come.

PRESSURED BY THE WORLD...

A friend and I were discussing what we really want in life... and we both agreed.. to live simply without people dictating what we should do and what we should become. At this point in our lives, we're frustrated as we are surrounded by people who are so immensed in their careers and achievements and being in an institution of professionals, we are being pushed to pursue this or strive for that or we should be like this/that... Yep, we may have graduated with a good degree, passed the gruesome board exams and not to mention been hired by the top firm in the country but those things do not mean that we like/love what we do... but we appreciate the blessing of being able to do so. It just so happen that our hearts are aspiring for something else. Maybe in due time, we would finally have the courage and the "stability" to step up and do what we really want. Not really caring for what may others have to say. Besides, it's our life.

???

I'm being pressed as to what I really want to do in my life. In the "real life", I know what I want but when asked regarding my career life, a big question mark still appears in the scene. In my present career, maybe I have to admit that the drive is not there primarily because I don't enjoy what I'm doing. I'm not really a nut for meeting clients, doing presentations, analyzing other peoples' computations and list goes on...

During college, I remember taking a career test. The result -- my qualities belong to that of "social jobs"... examples are teaching, medical industry, social work. Yep, I wanted to become a doctor but due to financial constraints, I wasn't able to.. and I wasn't that intelligent to have a scholarship. So I shifted my interest on a 4-year course - COMMERCE. I chose Accountancy mainly because Business Administration is like saturated already... Economics?? come on, what will I do with that??. And there goes my journey to the unknown world of accounting. I took the course not knowing what an accountant does. hahahaha... (I'd like to mention, my dad graduated with a degree of BS Accountancy then he joined the Air Force)

As part of my extra-curriculars, I joined the Mentors' Circle. A sub-organization under JPIA that teaches or assists sophomore students on their accounting subjects. It was there that I realized na teaching is cool... not just because you are able to help the kiddos study one of the most burdensome pre-requisite subjects but because you are also able to influence their lives as well. (I'd like to mention also, my mom is a teacher)

Although teaching won't bring the financial gains I am aiming for, I will still do that sometime in the future. It's part of my timeline. It could be my career until my last days. At this point in my life, stability is my goal.
YOU!!!

First and foremost, we are not close. What did we have? A less than 24-hrs. conversation and that's not enough for you to judge who I am and what my capabilities are. That also does not give you the right to joke around. I have learned my lesson, never tell a lot of things to a person you hardly know. YOU gave me a hard time, not to mention a terrible headache.

I'm just waiting for my sign and after that I don't have to deal with YOU again. I won't have to see YOU anymore... YOU won't have to meddle with my personal and career life. YOU are telling me that you don't see me anymore in my area... maybe that's because when I am here, YOU are not there.
