Today I made the decision that will carve out the next years, if not the rest of my life. Today, I took a job.

After many months of passing resumes, going through interviews, scanning job street, receiving phone calls... it has all finally ended. Probably I'm to blame for all this drama about choosing, but can you really blame me knowing that every dream, hope and expectation rests on this single decision? When Jollibee offered me a place in the company months ago, I thought my life was set. But after some thought, I realized it may not be for me... and so the journey went on with L'Oreal, Monde, Siemens, PDS.. of which some offered me a spot as well... but then today it all ended when I signed with Maersk.

and with this decision I have to apologize first to my mom, whom I know I will leave for the next couple of years... but I hope that this sacrifice pays off so that we may soon have a better life. All I am working for, striving for is just to see that we can be okay and sorry that it has to be through this circumstance.. but rest assured your hopes and dreams for me will be the strength that I know will make me do the best that I can so as not to waste this opportunity.
