My First Month Timeline

My First Month

July 3, Tuesday

It was my first day to work with my very first ever job, and very first ever officemates, in my very first office. This day was surely a day of firsts.

Their first question: Kailan ka magqquit?
My very first taning: four days?
My very first mentors: Princess and Aldrin
My very first out-of-the-office activity: Bakwet in the City

Dumaan ang mga araw, oo, gusto ko ng magquit.
Super gabi yung uwi, wala ng time sa family. Oo, nakakapayat, pero...

Then naisip ko, ba't pa ako nag-maskom? E lahat ng trabaho ng maskom, ganito talaga. hmmm...

E 'di hindi ako nagquit. I wanted to prove them wrong. Aabot ako ng one week. :)

In one of the shoots in Bulacan, I had to interview a farmer... One of the remarkable things he said was: "May kani-kaniyang panahon ang halaman. Ang pinakamasarap sa pagbubukid ay pag-aani."

It struck me, as if God is telling me, "Don't quit, I've got a plan."

From then, I fixed my mind into only one goal: I won't quit.

It wasn't that bad after all... or dahil super tinulungan ako ni ate cess? IDK. But I'm super nervous sa next story, might be an epic fail or something. Haaay, sana talaga makaya ko...


July 11, Wednesday

My very first pitching day: EPIC FAIL! Wagas talaga pagka-epic fail neto, buti na lang 'di naman sila nagalit, natawa lang sila sa akin. Napaka-epic din kasi ng reaction ko dito. Ah basta! Unexplainable e. Hihi...

August 3, Friday

Happy 1st Monthsary to me!
On this day, I had a positive and negative incident in life.

Ms. Maki was mad at me. Don't ask, it's just a pinch of my stupidity.

and...

We had a researcher's seminar (my very first seminar) conducted by the great, GMA News Researchers. Oh, they're so great. Nothing much to say...

My working life has just started. Things are working out pretty fine and bad at the same time. At this moment, I am faced with the different attitudes of life. But one thing I am pretty sure right now, I won't quit.

Though I am a little bit naive and ignorant about so many things, I know, I'd learn to play this game. Lahat ng bagay naman natututunan, at kung kaya nila, dapat kaya ko rin. :)

I cheer for myself! <3
