"The success story"
  • My friend was complaining about wanting to shift, he's an incoming senior.
  • Me:Maybe it's time for you to give yourself a chance. Look at me, I don't mean to brag though. I mean it's a lot easier when you love the things you do and it's hard to see yourself in ten years or 5 when you don't really like it.
  • Him:I don't know my place anymore... I'm really struggling...
  • Me:Been there, done that. Did you know that there's even a point in my "soul searching" period where I knelt and cried. I spoke to God... And whenever I look back at that scene feeling ko nasa Eat Pray Love ako :))
  • Kidding aside. My first step was to know what I want. It's hard to divert from one path when you don't know where to go.
  • Her:Aww *insert his name here*.. we all know how you feel. *hugs*
  • OMG Gabe you talked to God?! Really...? XD
  • Me:It was such a foreign concept to me that I almost started with "I'm a really big fan of your works"
  • Her:I agree with Gabe. It's hard to work at something you're not good at but it's harder to work at something you don't really like. I think I now have enough cred to say I've been in both situations. Sadly I'm not as fortunate as Gabe to switch paths as he did.
  • Me:Pero graduating ka na next year. You have two optionsipagpatuloy mo yang HRM then take something you like, I guess that'll give you the drive to finish it, or you can shift agad. It's your choice, we're only here to talk and listen, same goes with your parents. It's your life.
  • OMG! Feeling ko nasa podium ako at nagtatalk sa crowd. Hahhaa "the success story" :))
  • Him:minsan naiisip ko na robot ako... I mean I can work/pursue sa mga bagay-bagay... pero there's something missing :l... and yea good for you gabe... and *insert her name here*. I can see a ray of light... you can really handle yourself very well...
  • Me:Life is easy, don't make it complicated. If you don't want to do it then don't. But like I said kanina before you stop you must know where you are headed.
  • Her:I suggest you stay. You're lucky you have someone to pay for your education. Just always remember we're here for you. When you finish then you can go ahead and take off from there.. as you and only YOU. Kasama kami syempre. LOL. Ano nga ba talaga gusto mo?
