The following are the feelings that linger in my mind lately.
1. I’m not satisfied with the job that I do. Working 5-6 hours a day is really appealing to others but as a young professional I really would like to experience the usual working hours. (Yeah I know what you are thinking! I’m kinda weird!)
2. The stress I’m experiencing at work is quite lesser on what I’m expecting in the real world after college.
3. Living inside the Pisay compound is one of the things I really can’t stand right now. Besides with my problem with the dorm manager, I want to experience the hassle and bustle in the road. Experience the long lines in the MRT/LRT, paying up a jeepney fare and taking a tricycle before and after work. I’m planning to transfer in UP dorm next semester.
4. Now, I HATE FASTFOOD! Since I started working here in Manila, my problem everyday is where and what to eat during dinner. I don’t have any choice but to eat in McDo, Jollibee, Chowking, TokyoTokyo, Rodicks, Wendy’s, Burger King, Sbarro and all those ‘fake’ food shop in the malls. (Name it! I’ve tried it!)
5. I am not satisfied with the education I am getting right now in the UP College of Education. Or maybe I have a lot of expectation with the quality of instruction that I might have with my stay in the college. Or (again) maybe, the Edtech program needs a lot of reform and amendment. Or (this will be the last time I promise) maybe, I need to look for another school for my graduate studies or think of another program that will satisfy my expectations.
6. I need a faster laptop. I’m into graphic design right now and having a Microsoft Vista as my operating system it makes my laptop’s performance slower. I want to go back with the Windows 2000 OS (Better than XP )
7. Lastly, I realized that I am the one who make complications in my life. I always have the reason to be unsatisfied and discontented in what’s ongoing in my life. But indeed I have a great life compare to other 23 year old guy in town. I am always in a hurry. I am constantly evaluating every minute that happens in my life.
Now as I’m ending my 23rd year in this life, I really need to change and live life the best way possible. Enough of being technical and procedural. I am not an expert in living life but what I believe is that I must enjoy the life that God gave us. In the coming days I am ready to face different set of failures and disappointment. I am all set to battle the dangers of life. And lastly, I am prepared to experience a new set of experiences that will ruin or improve the life that I am living.
