hope to i-don't-exactly-know-what

today, September 10, i woke up with a little glimpse of hope. i was gonna leave for somewhere, i was gonna have fun with friends, i have imagined this weekend months ago. everything has already been prepared: tickets, a little of my savings, clothes that i can just randomly pick from my closet, i had all of these prepared. there was just one thing missing, something that seemed all too small for me, but not for my parents.

i thought they could at least trust me enough to let me go. i thought that by getting and paying for tickets months early, they would allow me to go.

but much has already been said, after that one call this morning, nothing and no one has made me smile again. i don't exactly know how and what to feel. tears have been shed and that glimpse of hope have faded.

let's wait and see how long this will stay. my rants, my thoughts, my feelings.

writing to earn

Recent changes have surfaced and decisions have to be made. They weren't all that easy. Questions upon questions came pouring in.

To work in a place that you know nothing about? Or at least, you're not happy to be at, simply because you don't understand what is really going on. But as they say, stick to it cause the money is there. The salary is high and you'll eventually be happy knowing that you are able to purchase or provide for yourself and those around you.

Then again, another opportunity is presented to you by the one industry you love and is most comfortable to be at. Although it clearly dose not pay much but its is where your passion lies. The industry you prepared for for four long years. Something that you know you will be happy at and will enjoy working, at the same time, will be having fun with.

So now, the bottom line question is: do you work for an unhappy workplace which is hiigh paying? Or do you go to where your passion is at but have to make up for the pay that you will be loosing by looking for alternative means of generating income for yourself and those around you?

With guidance and prayers, i have come to a full decision. something, that hopefully will have no regrets in the end.
