Rain Check

This is a memo. A memo before "finally" moving on from college, a note to remind myself of the months before actual graduation.

 Finishing in October is not a posh and pomp way to go out after a great college career. Aside from the wonderful Ateneo Bonfire celebration after a fifth-straight UAAP Championship for the Blue Eagles, lots of food and booze, the company of friends, and the entertainment provided by Sponge Cola, life has been all about finding myself once again. College for me has been all about political theories, Theological statements and practical application of lessons and concepts. But more than that, I've picked up a lesson or two from new friends and "family". Organizational work and other "distractions" round up a fulfilling, colorful career. 

Now that I'm handling my own business and building my own team with some great friends, things are falling into place. I have a source of income, great partners, time for myself and family, and things are actually better off than I expected. In all respects to my past self, "bumming" for 5 months before finding employment is a bad career move. I am really happy things did not turn out that way.

Now if only I had a better love life. On that front, I am still clueless. :P
