Dabbles in photography now and then. Likes searching for movie trivias and scripts and jotting down her fave ones. Is in a happy, steady relationship with a physicist who doesn't know tumblr works. Has an on-going project to catalogue all her books by title, date bought, genre, author, even the fracking color of the covers (rain check on that). Likes making and reading lists. Can't tell a good joke when forced.
NEW year. reNEWed vigour. NEWfound confidence. NEW career path. NEW laptop. NEW me.
…and the reason why I haven’t posted anything on tumblr for weeks.
I’ve decided to accept a job offer as a writer and researcher for a well-known architectural firm early this year, and after much consideration [and reconsideration], I tendered my resignation as an ESL Supervisor to my immediate bosses last week.
It wasn’t an easy decision, to be honest. I had to seriously weigh my reasons of leaving the company when my current pay is way higher than what I’ll be getting as a writer/researcher and the change is position as well. I know I need that extra money for our wedding money and for the ongoing treatment of my endometriosis, but I just couldn’t ignore the nagging “What if” voice in my head. I can live with the consequences of this career risk, but I’ll be damned if I don’t grab this career opportunity from Palafox Associates. As for the money issues, I’ll get by. Hullo, freelance writing gigs. Hullo, deadlines. We meet again.
I look forward to a good year ahead. Ajah! =)
