In few days, I'll be leaving the states to see my baby again back in the Philippines. I am very excited to see her again after 19 months without her loving arms around me. I wish I could speed up the time so I can be with her right now. But I have to worry first about my work here because I have to train the person who'll replace me from my job. So daydreaming and pretending that I am busy is not good. I have to make everything right just before I leave.
Talking about my job. I am working in a Lawyer's Office doing a clerical job. I don't know, should I call myself as a legal clerk or just an office clerk? I guess you can call me a Legal Clerk since I am doing a lot of clerical things about legal papers. Can you believe that this is my very first job in the states? dude, that's totally right! and I've been living in the states for 6 years now... I think it's about time to leave and find a better job, eh? Totally. I encountered a lot of ups and downs in that office. I've experienced showbiz chismiss coz it's being run by Filipino before. Yeah, that's why I told myself that I will never work in a place run by a Filipino again. Man, it's too much. I told Thet that my next job should be a job that will last forever and it should be something that I will love and not like something that I will work for just to earn money. But for me to able to do that, I have to go to school and study a college course that will put me into my dream job. Oh well, here are some pictures that my trainee took while we're taking our break. Hope you'll like it, because we've used my brand new Olympus Digital SLR E-500 here.
Me and Thet have been planning to start a photography and video business in the Philippines. That's what I want to do, since I am masscom graduate that aint really good with communication at all (as you can see.... my grammar. hello?) but my interest was on production and media technology. I got a couple of projects during my college days that I did and lead with my group and you can say that it went pretty well. They said I am good with cameras and other production stuffs. And now here I am planning to go back on track after spending my life in the states for 6 years. I bought myself a DSLR camera so I can practice my skills again with photography. Well I graduated year 2000 so this will keep me updated since I studied the old school film SLR. Plus, Google is my best friend for searching about things that I need to know.
We've been having a hard time deciding which one we will be geting, a Cannon or a Nikon? Although we have a lot expenditures going on, we still want to get one, so I can go to a photography class in the Philippines while I am spending my 5 months stay over there doing at least something worthy. In the end, I told Thet that I'll just going to buy a camera when all of these wedding expenses ended, because we cannot spend extra money anymore for our luxury. Our budget with our wedding has been calculated already and we can't afford extra things.
Since I was so eager about getting a camera, I thought about selling my stuffs in ebay. And I finally got my price... Olympus E-500. It's not as good as Nikon or Cannon but good enough for praticing. I am not a professional, so I guess this is good enough. I actually tried to hide it from Thet, but she's a smart mouse. I was gonna surprise her but she found out through my paypal lol.
