Tiara-Ra

I believe that life is all about taking chances. I took a chance when I moved to Makati, away from everything familiar, and proved to myself that I can do it. I took a chance and switched careers and now I can truly say that I love what I’m doing. It takes courage, guts, and a few tears…but in the end it’s all worth it.

I walked home one morning and saw this. I rarely walk home but I had a bad feeling about the cab driver so I got out near the police station and walked home instead. It was refreshing and relaxing. I had time to reflect and think about the decisions I made…and the decisions I should make. I’m happy with the former, the latter not so much… some habits are hard to break.

While July was depressing, August turned out to be the exact opposite.

Gail just gave me my big break–a chance to work in another company, doing what I love-working with websites and WordPress. It’s almost like working for the school paper again but on a digital medium. I like playing with colors, themes, and just seeing the codes work their powers. Lol. I never thought I’d be this fascinated with code. Years ago all those files seemed like gibberish to me (some still are) but now I realize that they are quite beautiful. Pretty much like poetry.

I am busier than ever and the other day I woke up, my right cheek sporting a laptop keyboard imprint, then went to work with just 4 hours of sleep. The first two weeks were a little crazy but guess what? I am enjoying and loving every minute of it.

Cheers!

Big thanks and hugs to Gail Bulaon. Haha! Salamat marci! Mwaaah!
