Thank God I Didn't Reach 5th Year

some of my students, waving goodbye as i temporarily left them for my BBDO interview
(sabi ng isa, "teacher tim, saan ka pupunta?", sabi ko babalik ako bukas, tapos sabi nya "basta bukas, wag ka na aalis ha?"... awww.... )

i'm soooooooooo thankful to God that I didn't reach 5th year, or to put it more positively, that I'm graduating and I'm free. Things are going quite well, and the happenings won't be possible if I'm in 5th year taking summer class. God is really great!!! i'm so blessed. the church retreat last Holy Week was such a blast, bonding moments with friends old and new. this week, i'm teaching a dozen 3to4-year-old preschoolers. sobrang asteeeg!!! and thanks for my beautiful young assistant ;) makulit, masakit sa katawan, masakit sa ulo ang preschoolers, pero worth it... sobrang saya. then, amidst the traffic and stupid van drivers, we still made it to our Ugly Writer Session, though we're late, i think we did well on the given exercise. agggst! we're not bums anymore. sabi sa akin kanina, "so wala kang ginagawa ngayon? gusto mo na magstart bukas?." sabi ko sa tuesday na. we're still in training and probi, but i think it's good that we're absorbed in BBDO GO. we're still under prob, so we can't afford to be complacent. now, it's time to raise the bar higher, and make the prayers stronger. Thank God for us going this far! :) i hope for bottomless creativity

goodbye summer break. hello real advertising world! i do hope i get a nice account to work on. hmm... summer would now get busier. hmm... another step in conquering the world...
