New Job, New Challenges, New Goals

2017 has been busy for me. It started with a stressful situation,  my mother got sick and hospitalized.  I feel very bad that she is living alone in our home but she does not like the idea of living with me in Manila.  I went and visited her for a brief period of time during the holiday break and it breaks my heart to see her suffering.  I just don't understand why she doesn't want to leave that place..  I  am still hoping that she would  be able to turn around on this idea and agree to live with me instead of staying in our home.


I also started this year with a new job.  I still work in TESDA  but I am now working at a new department.  My former position paid  bigger but I was always stressed out because of my boss.  I asked my sister for some advice and she told me to follow what my heart tells me.  I was  battling between higher pay with a boss I don't really get  along well or lesser pay but with  a very good working relationship with other employees.  I chose the latter even though I like the higher pay but I am now happier and  less stressed with my new position.

I am saving  some  money every pay because I am planning to enroll in a master's degree.  I finally passed the licensure exam for teachers but I am still looking for a school where I can teach.  I hope that I can achieve this goals in the near future.  

Rebuilding a House that was Burned by the Fire

I think the worse natural disaster is fire.  With typhoon, your house may get torn into pieces but at least you can still salvage some of it...
