The Work Life.

I remember when I was in my mid 20's when I started to look for a job. "Looking" then was merely looking for any job vacancy, Not really understanding and knowing what I really wanna do. Age for one was a big factor why I was pressured to get a job, Second was of course the need to earn, so that I can provide for my family and provide for my own needs and wants and Lastly, the aim to feel what "Life" is really all about. 
I took Bachelor of Science Major in Hotel and Restaurant Management, graduated in the year 2004. I love food, restaurants, cooking, living in a luxurious hotel, travel and live a wonderful life. But after college, things weren't as easy as I thought it would be. I wanted to put all my  passion together but again... hindrances were everywhere. So, I ended up looking for a job, like ANY job. And so I had no choice but to be part of the call center world. I was coping though the culture was very different, but then again--NO CHOICE! My first application and interview was for e-pldt, I was still in Manila at that time, screening and exams were really strenuous. I passed. But I didn't proceed. Why? I don't know!   


And more other opportunities came and went. Then years came, I was more mature, I was more certain with what I really wanna do. So, now I am working with a company for over 7 years now. It's not about the salary, partly the people that I am working with, but mainly because I felt that I belong here and that this is where I am able to fulfill my passion.
Life is weird,full of ups and downs but then if you know and choose to live your life in its best possible way, then Life is but the greatest gift from above. ;)
