I came across a friend's blog. i havent read hers lately and i didnt know she was able to update every now and then. I didnt know that she resigned already from PS and i just learned about it when we were at GB3 when Mayang was here for the new year. and its good to know she was able to go back to the business. back in college we use to dream about our job and getting our own place na may individual rooms. i remember my t3r friends and how we used to dream managing our own business. its an events company...from pre prod to ingress to engress to post prod. i remember si vee and production manager. joy sa marketing. enzo is the director. jay will be the technical director...etc etc. ako ang stage manager. hay...ansaya!
before graduating i was already working as an events coordinator and as a drama club moderator for high school students in a school in pampanga. i had to quit the work when i got a call from ABS. not so-so dream job but i really wanted to work there. the work was overwhelming and tiring. and like my friend who resigned in PS i decided to quit asap and its no more turning back. i just wanted to go and grow. my 3 months working there was fulfilling but at the same time it feels that its the longest 3 months of my life. its not healthy for me because im becoming more sick and little do i know i was a month pregnant when i left. before graduating and even after ABS friends and contacts would call and ask for your help for events and its not bad because like ABS you get to meet different people and its exciting. but after my 'rents learned about the pregnancy i had to stop from my rakets because it was too tiring for me. ayun after the pregnancy i wasnt able to get back there until today. after a year i decided that i need to find a nice paying job so i can at least save up for my little isha. and i know being in this industry that im into now is the least job i wanted back in college but its not so bad pala after all. but after working here for almost two years already(im gonna turn 2 on june 3 na)its becoming a routine and i so hate routines. ciguro what keeps me here are my friends that i fell in love with na and of course the pay. let's face it in events when you dont have work you have no pay. period. and at least you have to have lined projects so you can at least say may pera ako for the next month. ang hirap nun. something i can take esp when you have a little girl na nakaasa sayo. maybe when i was single bakit hindi. and now i realized na when you become a mother you learn to think or others than yourself. na id rather spend time with my little one than with my friends.
mari, im so proud of you. like i said wag mo ko kakalimutan when you're there na. as you said it pays to be patient. i know that. pag may raket ka dyan sama mo ako. hahah! i miss us...i miss you. i miss the chocolates and coke which keeps us up all night of work pag may events. i miss ung kadungisan at kababuyan naten while working. i hope i can go back like you. sana...
maybe not now...but im keeping my faith.

i was going to reply lang with your note on my blog, but i came across your entry :) i totally understand everything, lay and as much as i want you to go back with me here...in our prod life, i know there are priorities we need to face. its super hard now, starting from scratch but i gotta take this chance na.super super thank you for the support, nothing will come between us, i promise.love ya!
i know just how much hard work and sacrifice you're doing for isha. supporting and raising her on your own (well, with the little help of daddy, visa and MC) i can say that you're one proud mama. our work here is very routinary but having you as a friend, more than a colleague gives it more color. making it worth while. there are just some things that we need to sacrifice and give up, even personal dreams and happiness to make life worth it for the most important people in our life. love yah, friend! keep it strong, and thank God for your bundle of joy called isha.
