journal 101

I should be in the review center
today.. being stupid that i forgot to exchange the foreign currency
yesterday wala tuloy akong pamasahe kahit man lang sa malapit na money
exchange center.. darn.. (and yes wala akong kasama sa house ngaun kaya
walang mautangan.. akalain mo un?!).. wag mawalan ng sariling pera sa
sariling bayan.. hahaha..

I already turned down two invitations
for an exam and interview from two different company.. why? cause right
now im facing my board exam review.. actually pede naman pagsabayin but
i dont want to take the risk of failing the exam and not having my full
attention to the job.. i was so hesitant to say no at first (especially
nung ung gustong company ko na ung nagtext).. cause im dying to have a job and maybe try
to take the company’s exam and interview.. but i have my priorities..
and besides hiningian ko na din ng opinyon ang mga taong nasa paligid
ko.. some says no some says go for it.. and so i pray.. i know nasa
paligid lang ung sagot.. i was searching through my study table and
found the book my former boss (hi Sir Ronald!) in PLDT gave to me.. The Purpose Driven
Life.. Fine! hanggang day 3 palang nababasa ko sa book na un.. but
after i lifted the pages i found this: Day 28: It Takes Time..

What strikes me are these messages:

  • Dont
    get in a hurry! BELIEVE God is working in your life even when you don’t
    feel it. Everything on earth has its OWN TIME and its OWN SEASON.

  • Be
    Patient with God and with yourself. One of life’s frustrations is that
    God’s timetable is rarely the same as ours. We are often in a hurry
    when God isn’t. You may feel frustrated with the seemingly slow
    progress you’re making in life. Remember that GOD IS NEVER IN A HURRY,
    BUT HE IS ALWAYS ON TIME. He will use your entire lifetime to prepare
    you for your role in eternity. (Rick Warren: Purpose Driven Life pp 222)

  • Dont get discourage. Remember this PBPGINFWMY stands for "Please Be Patient, God Is Not Finished With Me Yet"

And so having my most precious advice from Him I abide..

I reached my cellphone and texted Intel:

Me: Good Morning. Im afraid that I couldnt go for the exam and interview due to my board exam review. Thank you..

Of course di na ko naghintay ng reply.. but my cellphone beep.

HR: Wag ka matakot neh. Ok lang un. Kaya mu yan..

And so I thank him/her..
