"kung hindi kami ngayon, bakit hindi ko ligawan?"

First day of OJT in Philippine Journalists Inc.? Or Journal Group of Publications? Whatever. Well, first day did not excite me. It's just as simple as working in OSA. Pero siguro dahil din at feel ko dahil talaga kasi wala yung mentor namin kaninang si NICKSEN. He went out for an interview with Mel Tiangco and he chose not to bring us there dahil masungit daw si Mel. Yesss? Anyway, the people there are very warm. They are all very approachable. Parang too good to be true (not to mention Mr. A? Yung nagalit sa'min kanina dahil hindi daw namin ginawa ang first assignment, which was a company profile? Dahil sabi ni sir Mike 'wag daw namin yun pansinin). It's like, not the real world since "sabi nila" harsh daw ang real world and blah, blah…

Gusto kong mag field! Ayoko ng boring na trabaho. I want excitement! I want something that will make me… "Oh yeah c'mon! I want moooore!" haaaay. Okay. I will give this two weeks. I'll wait for a work outside the office. A field work maybe? I chose my beat, advertising, kasi sabi ko hindi naman ako magsusulat for newspaper 'pag graduate ko dahil hindi ko naman masyadong gusto and especially because, walang pera doon. Sabi nila working is a matter of passion. You work not only because of salary but you work because you love that job! TAMA. Isang malaking tama para dyan! At napakaswerte ng mga taong tinatrabaho ang trabahong mahal nila. Pero hindi yun ang issue eh. I am willing to accept low pay naman as long as I really love the job. Kaya lang, being a journalist? Hindi masyado eh. May mas gusto pa ako.

Kapag in two weeks at hindi ko pa minahal ang trabaho ko, I will pursue that TV5, whatever it takes. Minsan lang magkaroon ng chance. Why waste it? Kung alam ko naman talaga ang gusto ko bakit hindi ko subukan? Kung baga sa magkarelasyon, kung hindi kami ngayon, bakit hindi ko ligawan? Bakit hindi ko subukang mapalapit? Wala namang imposible eh. 'Di ba?

Yes. I still want that other major over there! Kahit wala naman akong napagaralan about TV prod, Theatre Arts, Advertising and that and that, gusto ko parin parang ganun yung magiging trabaho ko someday.

Well, isa lang ang point ng entry na 'to. Magpapass ako ng resume sa TV5 on Saturday? And I think I'm gonna pursue it kahit sabihin nilang taga timpla ng kape 'pag sa TV? (I mean, sa OJT) Eh liligawan ko nga eh! 'Di ba 'pag mahal mo, you're willing to sacrifice? Hahahahaha. Yeah, I know love.

GOODBYE TAJ MAJAL. HAHAHAHAHA! :)

Hay Journalu. I love you.
