Whoa! I can't believe a month has passed since my last post. With everything that's been going on, too many things I got preoccupied with, I haven't even noticed. Heck! It feels like it's only been a week.
In the past couple of weeks, I've been pretty preoccupied by thoughts of finding myself some greener pasture. I've been debating with myself whether or not higher salary and better benefits are enough reasons for me to give up my tenure in the current company I'm working for. Several of my friends have told me to go for the money, but there are a few who took on a more sentimental view of my dilemma. Yes, I've learned to appreciate the goods and accept the bads of my current employer and I've grown so comfortable in my work environment that I realized it would be really difficult to let go. Still, a higher pay, better benefits, and possibly better opportunities for professional growth is very, very tempting.
Well, the debate isn't over yet. No side has won. I'm still at the edge of the cliff trying to decide whether to fasten myself and hold on or take the plunge.
Then there was this life-changing episode that happened about three weeks ago that up to now, I still do not have enought words to describe. All I can say is that six gunshots and six bullet holes in your car can alter your entire outlook in life. It was really life-changing...
Those are the sad parts... on to happy thoughts...
I've been very busy reconnecting with old friends and making new ones. I had fun going out again with some old friends: OliverTwist of OrangeinaPod and OliverMakesDolls (you've got to check out his dolls!), some old friends from way back that I haven't been with in almost 2 years (I so missed Ma'am Cyn, Racel, and Ms. Weng). I've also reconnected with some schoolmates from high school, people I haven't heard from in years!
Whew! It has been a very engrossing month.
