more reason to get inked!

the thing said i have not blogged for ten weeks already. that's a long time,
a very long time.
where do i start? graduation? even before that?
im lost.
okay so maybe i can start at graduation.
this is for the sake of getting some stories out of my system finally after ten weeks
that seemed longer than forever.

it was on the 24th of april, four days before my sister's birthday. the night
before that CSS had a send off party for the graduates so we had the chance
to dress up, put on hills, dresses and make ups. it was exaclty what i envisioned
it to be though it happened at our college's courtyard. the weather was
cooperative that night for the live local band that played. we rocked the
night out yes in hills, dresses and makeups. there was booze but no beer.
the usual cocktales idea of the faculty oldies i suppose.
the graduation day was perfect - families, friends and loved ones were there -
except that it rained. and it rained hard. too bad for our batch the traditional
walk from school to the convention center didnt happen. it sucks that way.
but all is good afterwards. lots of photo ops, cheering and clapping. Finally
everything is over. i dont know if my happy three friends noticed but yes, i did
become teary eyed. siigh. it was bittersweet. :)

so moving on, i stayed at home for some time, went to ilocos and manila
for some family reunions. absorbed some good advice from the elders about
what to do with my life, again was faced with the question "what's your
course about again?" and i still had difficulties articulating what exactly
social anthropology is about.

and then i managed to come up to baguio for one or two great job hunts
with sophia. we had a realization: we should have taken up accountancy if
wanted to take over the position of a bank's office sweetheart. we had a good
laugh at that, until we finally got tired floating our very fresh resumes.
but seriously, swanky office or no swanky office, we  love social anthro. :)

finally, sophia landed a job at UP. i think it's weird sophia teaching though
i know she's very capable of doing so. but its just werid coming from the
perspective of a blocmate-housemate-onethird of the happy three friends.
and what happened to me? i started writing for sir andy's company.
this i dont really want to do, i mean i do, but not the "eureka! i want this!:D"
kind of job. i took it so that i have something to do here in baguio. here
in baguio. i cant leave baguio. how many tiimes have i uttered these words?
i cant leave this place, not just yet. i know i will, but not just yet.

the process of dicovery is on-going.
i started a facebook account which by the way is very addictive.
i found out that people have become moms. this is something i find disturbing
still, though some might say they were bound to be moms at this age.
people have broken up, many of them. i cant be sorry enough for them, i
have always believed in love nomatter what circumstance, but only because
im having the best with this love thing, which puts me in no position to
understand how difficult love can actually be.
i want to be a guidance counselor. i want to help people that way.
its a long way from where im standing now, and  should start working on how
to get there before it's too late. this is the road to self-actualization.
 

LOVE still and some other STRINGS.
