So I just tendered my resignation the other day and I have more or less 4 weeks left in my current job. Those remaining weeks will be spent in tying up loose ends, which basically means I’ll just have to oversee the completion of my unfinished tasks and slowly break the news that I’m leaving to Smoking Area Smokin’ Hot Chick. She’ll be devastated. Who will she exchange intense looks of lust (or disgust) with now? You have to be strong, Smoking Area Smokin’ Hot Chick. You have to be strong.
In light of these recent events that render me invulnerable to new projects, I now have a lot of free time to do stuff like spring cleaning the hell out of my office Mac. I don’t look for job openings while at work, though. I don’t want to use the company’s resources for my job search. It’s just not right. I dick around the Internets instead. And this dicking around led me to the greatest 5-second video in history: DRAMATIC CHIPMUNK (that is actually a prairie dog)!!!
But yeah. It’s fun to watch sophomoric clips like this, but this isn’t the time for bite-sized cheap thrills. This is serious. I’m leaving a company that I once considered my “dream company”, and now I feel… I feel like I’m waking up.
I can’t say I didn’t think this through. I did. But somehow, I still have doubts. I still doubt if… if I’m doing the right thing.
I left my previous job because I was looking for something more fulfilling. I thought this current job gave me what I was looking for. It gave me something to be proud of for more than a year. And now, I’m back… back to where I started.
As I count my remaining days in my current job, I’m hoping everything would become very clear, very soon. I hope once I take this leap, I’ll land somewhere nice. Somewhere… awesome.
2008 is starting out as a wicked interesting year. My life is seriously taking a very serious turn, and I seriously don’t know where I’m going right now. But somehow, I seriously feel that all is well and I am seriously more in command of my life today than any other day that has come before. Seriously, I think I’m finally taking life more seriously. Seriously.

The more you say that you’re going to be more serious this year, I die a little bit inside.
"Seriously, I think I’m finally taking life more seriously. Seriously."
Maybe so. A lot of people are having the first day of the rest of their lives nowadays anyway. Just a thought.
(Sorry, if it’s a bit senseless. And no, it’s not because it’s almost 3 a.m. and I’m still awake. It’s just one of those days. Or is it? Ahaha.)
Nice videos, but the joke got old by the fifth one.
@Pau: I’m going to be more serious this year. I’m going to be more serious this year. I’m going to be more serious this year. I’m going to be more serious this year. I’m going to be more serious this year. I’m going to be more serious this year. I’m going to be more serious this year. OMG I KILLEDED PAU! :(
@Doc: You drunk? lulz
@Leon: Sorry, buddy. You missed the whole point of this post. But thanks for playing!
OOOOooooOOOooo! I’m dead!
Ass.
Im also about to resign with my current job. My current work leads more to IT work instead of Market research and analysis. Fortunately, a multinational company which has an office in Ortigas offered me a job with a flexi time. All I have to do is to clean toilet bowls and theyll pay me 2k a day. hows that sound! Time to say goodbye now to our old jobs and to Makati.shet.

@Pau: You’ll always be in our hearts, brotha. :(
@Ary: Ewww. You work in Makati.
@Chesca: You’re my personal online motivational speaker, Chesca. Swear to God. OK, trusting my instincts now. I can do deez! Also, you’re right about the girlfriend. She’s now the ex. It didn’t work out. Sorta. Demanding ka ngayon, ha. LOLZ
