on changes
it is my last day at work tomorrow.
i’ll be spending a few weeks in palawan cause i got accepted as a volunteer for an NGO—without pay, which is not the scary part, though i must admit it is a bit tricky for such a nice place(i mean, how will i go around if i have no money? so,visit me there so you can feed me and i can be your "local" guide mwehehe ) but i’m more scared of the thought that i will be in a strange place adjusting to a new job and a new set of work colleagues, without knowing anyone except my future immediate superior…and i dropped my job just like that. so i’ll be a pauper for the next three months (volunteer then campaign period follows) [FRIENDS SHOULD READ: this is a solicitation letter. ahem! birthday fast approaching--NOT A HINT mwehehe]
hhhmmmm..changes bring out the best or the worst in people.does the fact that i love it make any difference? will i stumble and fall in light of the struggle that i chose in the first place? will i adjust easily to a different working environment? will my social skills (or the absence of it…really! i’m shy in the real world!) work? will i find another job that will pay as much? am i meant to stay in ‘pinas? or is there something else far more exciting in the world outside gingoog and manila? should i go or should i stay?
questions that haunt me at night…but these are good distractions from what is really bothering me and more than five thousand others who took the bar last year…a possible life changing day within the month (or not! mwehehe)
i’m scared but definitely i am more excited with the thought of going to a new place and conquering these thoughts..of meeting future friends and going to the beach for the weekend (WHEEEEEEE!!!!!!) and of course..making a difference in the world.
i love changes. just hope it will bring out the best in me =) puerto princesa,here i come!
