Accepted

Thank you for your prayers because I have been accepted to my first job offer. Haha.

I can't tell you how surprised I am of that e-mail entitled "Congratulations". I had a difficult time making the project because my first file (for which I was up until 4 AM the night before the deadline) got saved in a blackhole so that I have to redo it on the day itself.

Thank you Lord!

But last night I was thinking if I was meant to be employed. As a kid (say, before high school) I have read a lot of investment and business books, but those in nugget form such as Kiyosaki's and Trump's. Since then I had wild dreams of being an entrepreneur and investor regardless if I did not understand what bonds, mutual funds and stocks meant.

Now as a "future" graduate, I had the freedom from academic work and even work itself to pursue whatever I wanted. Last night I was thinking about this, and consulting my father. It was very uneasy for me, talking of my dreams to someone else. Sometimes I really just wanted someone who will listen...

I felt the resolve to focus on business including registering, ordering big time, marketing in bulks to other companies and putting up a brick and mortar shop. But this morning, God gave me two choices: be employed or unemployed (self-employed you may say).

Well maybe I don't really have to choose. The company I got accepted at is a consultancy firm, so if I'm not mistaken it would not take all of my time. Maybe I can expand the business on the side. Or maybe I am a part-time qualitative analyst. But anyway, I'll be asking for God and people's advice for this.

Again, thank you! It's a blessing. <3 :)
