Strides and Conquering
I guess I hardly use my blog as a place to write, like I originally intended when I had created it SO LONG ago thanks to a certain friend. But lately I’ve been in such a good place, I’ve hardly had a chance to get it down on paper. This year has, so far, been exceptional. My career in culinary never got its launch like I had hoped, but I found a great stable job that serves the purpose of providing for my parents and allowed me to take some trips that I would have never been able to afford. I went to Disneyland a few months back and, it being my first time, was a great adventure. Couldn’t have asked for a better guide in my two friends, who also got engaged at Disneyland whoop! It was an immensely memorable experience, and despite it being the best 3 day trip, it wasnt even the best part of my year.
My job at this pharmaceutical company has really opened my eyes to what I was missing in all the culinary jobs that I had previously. What I miss from college especially. Its the people I work with. Granted all of them are at LEAST 40 year old Filipino men, they act like such children. Practical jokes, random noises to try and scare each other, ghost stories about the site to try and add to that fright, they make even terrible work days easy. I want my future jobs and careers to come with that bonus.
And well... then there is HER. And yes I completely understand that this is probably going to sound like the most cliched piece of this post. But I dont care. I have been talking this wonderful lady for about a month now. Just a little over actually. And yet it has felt like its been so much longer. We have had wonderful and long nights just talking. Not a lot of options when we are at such a distance, but I wouldnt trade those nights for the world or more. Then there were a few days I made mistakes, and despite how terrible I felt she somehow forgave me. Like not forgive and forget, just forgave me. She believes in the promises I make her and I plan to keep them. In fact I am planning to visit her this December. It will be another first for me and I can hardly contain my excitement. She is... ideal! Well more than that but its hard to describe without going overboard. I will add a future update about how it goes. But till then, I am tackling each day with this goal in mind.
"I am going to see her".
