Twists and Turns

Just when I had decided to forego my plan, life suddenly offers me something. I mean, I decided to put it off because I realized it was a decision hastily made and not well thought off. I was really pissed of at that time though.

So here I was, offering to help. Then I get a paid vacation. Well, that's a nice term for it though.

So two days into my "paid vacation," all I can say is that I'm freakin' bored. And if there's one thing I don't like it's boredom. Why? Simple. An idle mind is the devil's playground.

Oh well. But I guess I have to live with that fact. I'm also afraid of the fact that if I ever get back to work, I'll probably be facing tons of backlogs. Which of course would again stress me.

Damn it.

Fallbacks and What Nots

Oh well... I've said it once and I'll say it again. Just when you think life couldn't get any better, reality steps in and smacks you in the face.

Barely two years in what I would have thought to be the perfect place to work, I've decided to leave probably by the end of November, this year. I haven't yet submitted my resignation letter though. Not because I'm having second thoughts, rather I don't know what to put into it.

They were right you know. Our company hires intelligent people. Problem is, they do nothing to keep them.

Friends have told me to wait until I get the 13th month bonus before going. Others say that I should have a fallback job. I say, to hell with it. If I'm not happy, why stay? Much as I want to endure, I know I deserve better.

So what's in store for me after I leave the office? Don't know really. That's the fun part. I know it's going to be a whole new adventure.

So this early I'm saying this, "Being a Creeker has been one hell of an experience."

Thank you for the opportunities. Thank you for the trust. Thank you for the companionship.
