The Provincial Life | My everyday routine

I live in the province and work in the city. Most of my free time are spent traveling and I don’t mean that in an adventurous and exciting way. I think it’s better to use the word commuting (hmmm maybe this can be considered as adventurous). Anyway, I’m telling you this as a disclaimer that you won’t see anything grand or glamorous in here. Just a regular struggling probinsyana trying to be as honest as possible (who reads this blog, anyway?). Ya ready? Okay. Here we go.

My Internship

Working with a talent management is not actually what I was aiming for in my internship. I was looking for something I can apply my skills to, particularly in writing. But it’s not every time that things will turn out the way you planned it. Maybe because I was late in sending out CVs and there was a little chance for me to score in my company of choice or maybe because I was tired and desperate for a company that made me said ‘yes’ when a lady named Dara, who turned out to be a Paulinian, asked me over the phone if I could start working with Cornerstone the following week.

Oh! Have I told you that applying for them was completely out of plan? Serendipity if you must say. All it takes were a screen-captured address of what we thought was a magazine publisher and an overpriced cab fare which made us think that not even submitting our CVs would be a shame to our wallets.
