Papa drove me all the way to Eastwood this morning for my exam at IBM. To make the long story short, I FAILED the exam. It’s not like I was expecting otherwise, it was a complete suicide. Their test was purely MATH and LOGIC, a killer combination especially for a person like me. If it had something on grammar or reading comprehension or those “guess-the-next-shape” kinda exams I’d probably have a better chance at it but NOOOOO…
It’s okay, I NEVER WANTED TO WORK FOR THEM ANYWAY!
Just kidding! Ü (FYI: I’m not bitter, I promise)
BUT when God closes one door he opens a another one...
I was awakened by a phone call from Petron this afternoon. They said they wanted me for an interview on Monday!! Mabait talaga si Lord.Ü Okay, to be totally honest with you, I kinda felt bad about not passing the exam because if that's how all companies screen their employees, I know I'll never get in. I'm not as brilliant when it comes to mathematical equations and finding "x" although I wish I was so that it would be easy to prove yourself to other people. I mean, you've got your grades to speak for that.
However, God really knows how to cheer me up. Now I realize that each time I get turn down like this, I should stand up stronger. You shouldn't let things like this get it you. It's all part of the game...
...and I'm in.

OMG, my brother is obsessed with James Blunt's "BEAUTIFUL." He's been singing it all day in that "high-pitch-trying-hard-to-sound-like-james-blunt" voice (plus guitar). HORRIBLE. If I know he's just singing the song to himself...the vain-EST person in the whole wide world. Haay.
