WaRpEd & TwIsTeD

It’s been three days since I said goodbye to the company where I thought I could finally settle down. Medyo naka-get-over na ako sa lungkot ko, unlike when I left the building last Friday night. Thankful nga ako kay Khay (my ever-reliable-friend-cum-therapist) kasi ni-meet nya ako after office at naging shock absorber ko sya (again!). Nakakalungkot kasi hindi pa naman ako 100% na alis-na-alis. I chose to leave for career advancement reasons. Alam kong madami akong mga kaibigan at very happy memories dun. Kaya lang hindi naman siguro selfish kung iisipin ko rin naman ang future ko at ni Zion. Ayoko naman maging analyst programmer habang buhay. Laid-back as I am, I still long for the time that my efforts will be duly acknowledged by the much-deserved promotion. Gusto ko rin naman na balang araw eh may ipagmamalaki sa Zion. It was unfortunate nga lang na hindi ko na ito makita sa company na iniwanan ko. Siguro kasi hindi ko kayang maging superwoman. Siguro kasi saturated na ang promotion lines. Siguro may problema sa sistema. Siguro may problema sa taong dapat na nagpapatakbo ng sistema. I really don’t know.
 

As I leave the place which I called my second home for the past 3 years and 4 months, I bid farewell to the people who have made my stay memorable and fulfilling - sa aking mga shomabels at shomabols - si Lea, Bhel, Anna, Abaut (na nasa Canada na), Shawie (ang nag-recruit sa akin.. hehehe..), Suzi (nasa Sing), Cami (na nasa ibang company na), ang mga kumpare kong si Ron and  Pao, si Juniebabes, Jellyme, Boker and James (na nauna pang umalis sa akin), Solomon (kalbo), Renco, at Glenn.
 
 
Next week I will begin a new chapter in my career. I pray and I wish na sana dun sa lilipatan ko eh dun na ako finally mag-settle down. Mahirap din maglipat-lipat. I know I have to start and build things all over again. Kaya lang, I know that even the great Pyramids in Egypt started off with the first set of bricks. That I have to step out of my comfort zone to see what the outside world has to offer. As a famous saying goes, "Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore". Wish me luck…
