Ambitions and Whatnot

I'm back after a long writing hiatus!


So what's been happening in my life since my last post?


Well, first of all, the job I had when I last posted is over for me. I kinda realized that it's a dead end and that I want more fulfillment in my career and that I want to study. Speaking of which, I just enrolled in De La Salle University (DLSU) for my graduate degree. I'm currently taking up the Master in Marketing Communications program so I can integrate what I learned back in college to the business side of things.


Anyway, my life's been pretty great. I have a new job, new colleagues, new friends at school, and I don't do a lot of gig organizing anymore which I greatly miss, by the way. 


My life has been pretty stable. I go to work from 8am-5pm. I go to class every Tuesdays and Fridays from 6pm-9pm. On Fridays, I drink with my friends, On Saturdays, I go out with Peachyboy and on Sundays, I study. I literally lock myself up in my room just to be able to focus on my homework.


As far as work, I am currently the, I repeat, THE Marketing Executive of Fresh Fruit Ingredients, Inc. It's a coconut manufacturing company whose market is not in the Philippines. This is actually a pretty decent company. The people are nice, my workstation is big and cozy, I get to have my own phone, the bosses give free food sometimes, I get to bring home free coconut products, and most of all, it's sooooo near my house. It's only in Magallanes and I live in Merville (well, at least near Merville). The traffic, however, is TERRIBLE in the morning.

This is actually my first job in marketing. 


I'm trying to learn how the FMCG business works. The salary may not be as high as my previous job, but it's enough for me to get by. I sacrificed the high salary I used to receive for something that will help me earn a lot more. Actually, it's not a sacrifice. It's more of an INVESTMENT.

I look forward to the day that I get to sit behind a huge desk, have my own mini bar, a black, sexy leather couch, an assistant, and a big-ass computer that'll knock the socks of those who I hate the most (I know. I'm mean like that). 


Yes, I have big ambitions and I intend to fulfill all of them. 


I DON'T care who gets in my way.


I also got a tattoo! I'll post a picture of it soon. It's red and it was done by BATAS. Yes, the Batas that you see on YouTube fliptop-ing against some of the best rappers in the country. Anyway, my tattoo is an ambigram of CUPIDITAS. It's Latin for AMBITION. 


So you see, I am dead serious when it comes to what I want. 


To end this post, I'd just like to say, I'm glad I finally have the time to write again. 


This is a rather happy blog post. The next ones will be full of rants about random stuff. 


I promise.
