I've missed you. I've got so much to say, so much to put down in words but where do I start? I guess I should start apologizing for the lack in postings or the fact that I've abandoned you for months. Guess blogging took a backseat while a new stage of my life began.
I started blogging awhile ago, amidst friends telling me otherwise, not because I wanted the world to know the 'going ons' in my life but simply for my own viewing pleasure. It's perhaps an assurance that I have my life under control, everything is detailed accordingly, memories are remembered. I guess the lack of postings just shows how much I've let life take control of me.

College has far ended and it has been four months that I've been Karen Pasqual, Account Executive. Though, I'm grateful for the opportunity given but I must admit the job hasn't really sinked in just yet. It just seems surreal to wake up each day and have to get ready for another day of work. It's such a change from being a student and all the freedom that comes from being one. And boy do I miss that...
So what has the working world taught me? Well firstly, its really a doggie-dog world. People are generally only looking out for themselves and I don't blame them. Any smart person would do that. You meet all sorts of people. Some nice, helpful even. Some fake and inconsiderate. One thing's for sure, as a newbie, most get the idea that they can treat you however they like to because of their superiority or perhaps seniority in the industry. Its sad..but that's the truth.
During this past four months, I think I've never turned to God as much as I do now. My prayer is always the same."God, Help me...Help me get through today..or Help me see You in everyone I meet". He's a constant assurance that someone is always there for me, unconditionally. And that's what I need now...stability.
Being a Catholic or even a Christian in today's world is such a challenge. Especially when the industry requires you to do things that go against the religion. Sometimes I wonder why You put us here. Why submit us to these meaningless rules the world upholds? After all we're just passerbys on earth. We're all going to die someday... and yet we have to succumb to worldly things, whether we like it or not.
To friends, whom I haven't spoken to in what seems like ages. I'm so sorry. I've hardly forgotten any of you but rather I'm trying my best to keep you close if not closer. Most of all, I've missed you and I hope you know that too.
Sigh...Let's hope I get a hold on life and there will be more postings yet to come..*fingers crossed*
