Vita Brevis
I went to this year's Book Fair thanks to a giant poster by the library entrance. I haven't taken a picture of my loot but I found about 5 books for me: 3 novels and 2 hardbound books. Then a few books for my mom, my sister and my dad. My wallet was drained and my feet hurt. I didn't eat out, too. I felt a little dizzy with the volume of people. But oh, it was heaven! I'm surrounded by stacks and stacks books! It felt so wonderful. :)
These times are coming to me again. A few times, I wonder if I should have pursued a different calling. If I'm not drawing/designing, I'm writing. And vice versa. I enjoy both of them. But I ask myself often if I should just focus on one. So I can develop the other more than the other. So I can be indispensable at work. So I will be needed.
I shouldn't be thinking about this when I need to be rushing, to make my plans concrete. Thesis creatives! You are such a pain in the head. I'm an all-around person lately: media planner, copywriter, account executive, art director, marketing executive. But I'm thankful that I get to do this. I'm having a taste of how one department works and how everyone is interconnected in the system. It's one complex web.
I feel old. Hahaha. I wonder when I turned into this person who is concerned about the future. A person who thinks a lot about what she wants in life, how to learn from life's experiences, where she stands in this world. Have I turned into a person of wisdom? Because strangely, a lot of people ask me for advice these days. Must there be a weird aura emanating from my body?
It feels nice, though. I know where I want to go.
