An update
I think my absence here and in any other writing avenue in general reflects how much has been going on in my life. It’s been a very full year so far. I quit my job, for one, to go to a global agency smack in the middle of the city. I took a holiday in Hong Kong. I won a print award for my first print ad campaign. I had a major makeover for my room. I’m dating again. And the battle with PPH is wearying.
All in all, it feels like I’ve not had a moment to just breathe. And a large part of that is due to the new job. There’s a fresh energy to work, to a new environment, which I like… but it’s been a lot of pressure trying to prove myself on a demanding account, under a creative director from London that I am trying to read and adjust to. Is it worth it in the end, if things don’t let up? I’m getting paid more than any of my peers, but what’s it all for if I am not exactly having a good time? I suppose while it’s not unbearable, I’ll just muster a positive attitude and see what happens. I just need to give things a chance, and 2 months++ is still too early to tell if I’m going to like it there or not. It’s…not too bad. For now.
