Beach Bum
May 13, 2008 Daily Blurbs
I secretly wish to be a beach bum, but right now I have to drop the word “beach”. I have to admit that I have become a bum… bum, bum, bum! I do not want to be in this position, but if I have another choice, I would be working for a company right now. My friend from Denver, Colorado is helping me find a job there, but I am not really counting on it.
Isn’t it funny when life kicks you in the head for the nth time for the same reason? Actually, I don’t find it funny now because I am in that same place I was, more than 2 years ago. I am still confused about my life. I don’t know which direction to go to. I am pushing to work overseas, but at the same time, I am scared of what I am going to find. I know that I should learn to take risks, but I can’t stop thinking about the people I am going to leave behind if I decided to fly. My parents are open to this kind of setting and I am, too.
A slow burning candle. That’s exactly how I feel right now. All the good stuff are slowly melting away. I wish I am at the beach right now, alone. I want to clear my head and make a decision based on what I think and feel. I don’t want to be held back. I am just so confused right now. I’ve had my head up among the clouds, and now, I have to deal with everything down on earth.

What Happens In Vegas
May 12, 2008 Daily Blurbs
“Feel Good” movies are my favorites. I would rather laugh and cry watching a film rather than being scared out of my wits. Yesterday, Ryan and I saw the film What Happens in Vegas which stars Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher. Prior to seeing this film, I saw Ellen’s show first because Ashton Kutcher was on the Thursday episode. Anyway, “What Happens in Vegas” is a typical story of a man and a woman falling in love in the craziest of situations. I mean, imagine waking up from a drunken night only to find out that you’ve been hitched with a ring from a vending machine! I am not going to say that the movie is all that but it did entertain me and had me laughing on most parts of the film.
I’ve never been in casinos. My cousin have been in a UK casino, he’s been living in London with his family and he said he even checks for London casino guide, not that he’s addicted to it, he was just trying to find places to unwind. He said, he even heard about Scotland casinos.
I’ve always loved how it feels like to fall in love for the first time but with a different person. You look at your life as though it is at its best. Everything is perfect and you feel invincible. The truth is, love is a lot of work, even if it’s new. How you make it last depends on how you work on it. Would you willingly extend your love for an overtime with little or no pay? Can you give up a break time just to make sure you’re loving efficiently?

Unemployed
Mar 16, 2008 Buzz, Daily Blurbs
I can’t believe that I still have this problem. Well, my graduation is on the 25th of April and right now, I should be submitting resumé to different companies so I could start working but, I can’t make up my mind. My dad is encouraging me to try my luck overseas and I know that there are lots of opportunities out there, but at the same time, I am still afraid to be on a strange land.
My sister is going to quit her current job and has applied for another. She has gone through the talent management tests and the HR just gave her a call yesterday to let her know that she has a meeting on Monday for a job offer. From what I know, she’s going to be earning around 58,000Php, that’s about $1450 a month. I wonder if I’d get to work for a company that would pay me that much.
Unemployment is one of the biggest issues that I have to face along with hundreds of graduates this year and last year and the year before that. I don’t know when the cycle is going to end. Well, I know that there are jobs out there, if I knew where to look. I am kind of doubting my skills and I don’t know how to go past that. I want to go to the beach, relax and clear my thoughts. I actually had that dream last night. I wish I can just disappear right now.
Poof!
