A New Day

Today is the first day of my birth month.

It has been hot in the dragon's lair -- too hot even for a dragon -- literally and figuratively. But what makes a person like me prevail is my faith in God, my faith in myself and my faith in my intentions.

Due to my recent endeavors I had set aside a lot of career concerns and right now, I have so many things in my mind, what if things, where to go from here things, moving on things -- generally what to do with my life things.

When I decided to move here in the province, I had so much hope. After seven years, I feel tired and just completely burned out. I really need a boost.

The only thing that drives me now is my little boy Nico, and my supportive husband Ramon. I only have to look at my little boy and like coffee, I am spurred to action. What action? Whatever needs to be done.

But, I do not work like this. I need a plan. I used to be so confident about my skills of having Plan Bs. Failure never really faves me. I have always seen it as a phase. "This too shall pass", ika nga sa movie na My Best Friend's Wedding.

But now it seems I am stuck in a rut.

I have to bounce back. Like Roo -- bounce, bounce, bounce.

Right now, my most major contemplation is going back to school. I am planning of taking my MBA in ADMU. I hope it works. I still need to pass the entrance exam etc... etc... But, it is something to look forward to and something that I really need for my career.

Been planning this for years now but I never really got around to doing it. Maybe this time, I can work on it and be successful.

I have also many things to work on, the BFHE Conference where I am the Conference Director and the preparation of our programs in the University which is up for accreditation. So, all is not lost. I hope things work out better for me.

What is important is to keep the faith and not lose hope. As our country embarks on a new chapter, we hope to become a better nation and become better people.
