renaissance

it has been a long time since the last entry. i guess i was just waiting for a significant event to inspire me to start a new entry. here i am now, in front of my own computer in the office. yes, i do have a new job, and it's far more promising than the other ones that i have gone through in the past years... that is if everything goes well. i know that life is full of suprises, but i have faith in this path that i'm taking right now.

in a couple of weeks, i'll be staying in Clark, Pampanga. i was hired as a team leader for a campaign that will be transferred there. and i have no problem with that. i think i need to get away from the city. that's what i've been doing in the past few months... i went to Boracay, Baguio, Bataan, Puerto Galera thinking that i just need a break. but everytime i go back to Manila, problems start appearing everywhere... problems with money, family, friends, love, relationships, etc. i told myself this has to stop. fortunately, one of my best friends, Chai called me up. she told me that a company needed a team leader as soon as possible. i went to the office and after 3 days, i was already on the floor. i thank the heavens for letting me have a friend like her. we've known each other for the longest time, we've been in the same company a lot of times, (if she leaves a campaign, most of the time, i would leave too and apply with her in a different company, that's how close we are.), we share the same sentiments, we enjoy the company of each other... in other words, if we're together, we're a perfect fit.
i told myself before that i can't live in a place where there's no night life, but then, i realized i have to be practical. not that i'm having a hard time digesting the fact that i'll be leaving Manila, it's just that i never thoguht that i would accept an offer like this. i know for a fact that i'll be missing government, bed, cbtl, my friends, my family, etc... but then i felt that it will be better this way. in Clark, there won't be temptations to spend money (except for the casino and duty free, but i doubt that i'll be hooked. i don't find them really interesting), and at the same time, i would be able to take care of myself. 8 hours of sleep, 8 glasses of water everyday, constant exercise (i heard they had a swimming pool and a basketball court), etc. if i go back to manila, i should look better. :)
right now, i'm under the transition phase, i'm getting myself ready for the big changes that are coming. unlike the past changes, this one will be a good one.
