JOB HUNTING...

So, this is how it feels to look for a job... Masakit. Mainit. Umaasa. Pinagtatabuyan. Sinusuga. But above all these, in fairness, nag-enjoy ako sa pag-walk-in namin sa mga companies sa ortigas. :D Jollibee, Meralco, Union Bank, Medical City, at isang hindi kilalang pharamaceutical company na hindi ko na rin maalala ang pangalan. Ha! The best ang company na yun. Pagdating pa lang namin sa entrance ng kanilang glass door, hayun at may nakapaskil na papel: "DROP YOUR RESUME HERE:". Tapos, may arow na nakaturo sa baba. On the floor ay isang kahon na nakabalot ng gift wrapper. Dun daw namin ishoot (or ishyut) yung resume namin. Hala naman... malaki ang pag-asa... malaki ang pag-asang maitapon lang kung saan ang napakaganda naming resumes. Nyahaha!!!

Ang pinak nag-entertain sa amin ay ang Meralco. Grabe... ang ganda pala nun sa loob! Naalala namin bigla si Lele. :D Hayun, dun kami pinasuga-suga ng mga guards hanggang makarating kami sa HR Department. At doon, inentertain kami ni Ms. Dang Sarabia (Lele, do you know her?) Binigyan niya kami ng test: essay. 30 mins ang time. 2 questions. At least 20 sentences each. Hay... yung 1st question, nagawa ko pang istretch ng 20 sentences. Pero yung pangalawa, hala, wala pa yatang sampu ang nagawa ko. Pero I'm confident na na-express ko naman ng maayos yung sagot ko sa tanong nila. Hindi nga lang 20 sentences. Magpapaikot-ikot lang yun pag pinilit ko pa... baka lalong hindi nila ako tanggapin.

Ang ganda rin ng uniform nila. Basta. Sana pumasa kaming tatlo nila Orange and Glad dun.

Tapos, tinry pa rin namin ni Glad sa Medical City. Although si Orange, ayaw niya na talaga. Talagang ayaw niya na sa Medical City (after ng aming industrial practicum dun). Nung pumunta kami ni Gladys dun... hala... bumalik ang lahat ng alaala ng aming practicum... (with Myk and Pai). Ganun pa rin yung amoy ng corridor along HR... amoy ulam. Tapos--Myk, Pai--si Ma'am Leanne preggy. Tapos may mga bago rin. Nakasalubong pa namin yung head ng HR na si Sir Crispin. Pero hindi niya na kami nakilala. :D At wala na ring opening sa HR pero pina-iwan na rin ang resume namin for future references.

Hayun. Ang saya ng aming adventure sa Ortigas. Super sakit lang talaga sa paa... as in... Sa thursday, Makati naman ang susuyurin namin. Naku... kahit ayoko dun dahil clueless ako dun, kelangan naming iexplore. It's about time. Maramin ring magagandang companies dun.

Well... we have no idea of what's to come and what's to happen. Basta, all our plans are laid down before the Lord. We entrust everything to Him. Wherever He leads us, we know that it is the best path for us. We have to allow Him to lead our lives in order to walk on the right path. Sure, there are many paths ahead of us. And the choice is in our hands which path to take. But I am very sure that only one path that would lead us to our true success, and that is the path that God Himself has chosen for us. We have to let God lead us to that path if we want to achieve true success. I know that all of us believe that it's not all about money or achievement or fame when it comes to success. If you fulfilled the calling God has given you--may it be a housewife or a president of a company--you are trully successful. If we love God and allow Him to work in our lives, His desires become our desires as well. We will love to do whatever God commands us to do.

Kaya, I'm looking forward to see all of us successful in God's eyes. God bless you! Miss you na! :)
