Moving Forward

My recent status in Facebook was a line which I got from Fun.'s song Why Am I The One. It says . .

"For once I get the feeling that I'm right where I belong."

Not so long ago, I really don't know what to do with my life. I was unemployed then and I can attest how hard it is to look for a job which in my case had a little experience. I participated in Job Fairs, signed up for websites like Jobstreet and JobsDB and looked for Classified Ads in the newspaper but nothing happened. I was very hopeless in that job hunting activity so I thought of other ways that I can help myself move forward and bring meaning to my life once more. I applied for a Graduate Program in De La Salle University which I knew from the start I will never pass but I did it anyway because there's nothing wrong in trying. While waiting for the results, I continued searching for possible careers, watched my favorite movies all over again, walked my dog every morning, wrote blogs, and read books. It took a while. Same routine everyday then all of a sudden, everything had change. I was like in the movie Hunger Games which I can say, "The odds are now in my favor."

My blog "Ganito Kami Sa MRT" was a hit and became viral for three days (yeah, just 3 days, I'm not that popular). It had took 3000 likes and 4000 shares in Facebook and I was like, "This is nuts!" Week later, I passed DLSU. And another week had passed, I got a job in CDO Foodsphere, Inc. God had given me everything I prayed for and now it's time to choose whether to continue my studies or rather work again for a living. I chose both. I know it is challenging but it can be done.

I've been working in CDO Foodsphere, Inc. for one and a half months already and I've never been this happy. The work is sometimes tough and a real challenge but it excites me. I love what I do and it's really a pleasure to work with such a great Team [Sales Support Group]. I'm really looking forward to work for this company in many years to come that is why I also want to pursue graduate studies because of the reason I would really want to contribute to its success.

I know it's hard to believe that for a span of one month my loyalty for CDO was this intense but what I do believe is CDO will continue to satisfy me like what it does to customers and help me grow personally and professionally. So yes, it's true . .
