Okay Now, I'm Over a Hump, What's Next?

Been almost a month since the last post. But this time I’ve good reasons. So I’m not complaining. Just a few interesting things for this post, boys and girls.

First, I’ve hit a milestone or something this month. The first time ever I’ve lasted for a year working in the same company, and I’ve quite a string of them companies enough to connect Cebu to Bohol after over 3 years as a professional mindwhore. And so far I’ve no plans of going anywhere. The boss is nice. I have a great team in my department, and I am earning money. Not boatloads of them, yet. But enough money to go by, and still have some to spare for books and a quick booze.

One year, baby. No fireworks or whatever. Just a fucking milestone. And that’s that.

Also I saw a friend reading Dostoyevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov, which reminds me of a review I wrote in college and was published in The Philippine Star. I’m ashamed of it now. But hell I was young and inexperienced and like any foolish young college kid I only wanted to see my name published in a national newspaper. So to my penance and further embarrassment, I’ll lead you to that link: 

P.S. The Philippine Star paid me P5,000 for it. Spent all of them on books.
