After staying away for a year and 4 months, I’m going back to the world of advertising. I spent 9 months writing for websites, and 7 months doing PR, and those jobs have been fun. But this opportunity knocks, and I just had to grab it, or else I would never stop wondering what new adventures I would be missing.
Call me a serial monogamist when it comes to jobs, but believe me, it was a tough decision. In the end, I had to follow my gut feel. And my gut said to take this job.
It was embarrassing, having to tell my superior that I was resigning, after only 7 months working for the company, but I really had to do this for myself.
“Ikaw naman ,” Sharkboy said. He couldn’t have said it better. He’s been enjoying his job, passionate with his work, still excited over new projects. And maybe he sees the same excitement from me this time. Maybe he sees how giddy I feel just at the thought of being able to immerse myself (fully) in advertising again. I thought my last advertising job put me off from the industry forever, but apparently not. Once you’ve tried it, it’s really hard not to go back.
And he’s right. “Ako naman.” I think it’s time I pursued a career, not just a job. Since I resigned from my first job last January, I’ve been pursuing “transitional” jobs. Maybe this time, I’ll stick to this, even after the honeymoon period is over.
And so I’m doing it again, saying my goodbyes, squaring off my shoulders to face a new world. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m going to make the most out of it. There are sacrifices I have to make, new discoveries, new learnings, but it will work out for the best. This time, I feel I’m actually heading somewhere.
So, wish me luck as I start this new job. It’s my time. =)
I’ve watched Ironman twice, and it still rocks the second time you’ve watched it. Hihi =) After all the reviews the bottomline for me is this: If Stark wasn’t played by Robert Downey, Jr., the movie would have failed. HE SO TOTALLY ROCKS!
I just realized that RDJ, everytime he surfaces from his addictions, comes up with such good movies (and TV guestings). Remember ‘Chances Are’ with Cybill Shepherd? Or ‘Only You’ with Marisa Tomei? or ‘Heart and Souls’? I loved his movies.
Then his second coming – his stint as Larry in Ally McBeal. I loved that character. He really made Ally less neurotic. And he’s so romantic too. This is where I first found out that he could sing. We even bought the OST where he sang a couple songs. So talented!
Anyway, here’s one of my favorite scenes from that season. He sings with Sting! *squeeeals*
Enjoy. =)
All the signs point to YES. How come I’m still scared to take the plunge?
HELP!
I’m extremely annoyed at people who look down on pop culture. I mean, I get that people have different tastes, but it’s another thing when you scorn people because they like something that’s considered pop. Or when you decide to miss out on something just because “everybody’s doing it.”
Case in point – Harry Potter. Don’t be plastic, Harry Potter is a fun, fun read. But I know of people who choose not to read it, just because everyone else was reading it. It could be acceptable if you haven’t started it, and you just refuse to join the bandwagon. Fine. You don’t want to be bourgeoisie. But I know someone who stopped reading it, even if she enjoyed it to begin with.
Why? Why deprive yourself of the fun just because you refuse to join the masses? Stop being such an insufferable snob, why don’t you?
I have to admit, most individuals who have this kind of mentality are the so-called artists. Ooooh, you’re so creative, you must be interested in the unpopular, “indie” things. Gimme a break. Don’t get me wrong. I respect your need for individuality. But what if, for example, the whole world suddenly went on a lomo rampage, are you gonna stop taking lomo photos just because you’re sharing it with everyone else?
I just find it silly that you let other people dictate what you do, just because you don’t want to be like them.
I understand if it’s in fashion. It’s annoying and embarrassing to see someone wearing the same shirt that you’re sporting. But in other things? It’s just silly.
So what if it’s popular? Who gives you the right to look down on what the masses want, anyway? Are you the epitome of good taste yourself? To each his own. If you’re interested in something, then go ahead. If others suddenly like what you like, then by all means, don’t let it stop you from continuing to like it.
Otherwise, you’re just gonna drive yourself crazy running away from what’s popular. Embrace the POP. Give it a chance. And stop being a snob.
Please let me burrow under the covers, and sleep in this cold cold weather. 
I’ve never been a fan of rainy weather. My wet toes, damp hems, and humidity-caused wavy hair will attest to that. But if it’s gonna rear it’s ugly head this early in the summer, then please let me enjoy it by snuggling under the sheets and being plain lazy. *sigh*
I’m getting a bad mood just listening to the raindrops on the car’s rooftops. It’s bad enough that I have to lug around an umbrella everywhere I go (which reminds me, I have to buy a lightweight folding umbrella). Even worse, rainy days bring with it a high propensity for disaster and mess. UGH. I mean, come on. Who here likes mud splatters on the hem of your slacks? Sheesh.
I have to hand it to the weather, though. The fashion possibilities are fun. Woohoo. I love wearing warm clothes! Now I can bring out the knits, the 3/4th sleeves, the jackets, and the opaque tights! YAY!
But hold your horses rain gods. I’m still pissed that you’re cutting short my summer fun. HMPF. I’m not entirely satisfied with my tan yet. So you better shape up and let the sun in!
