passion
Thursday, March 16th, 2006the reason why i haven’t really blogged in a long time is because so many things have been happening in my life. so many good things…
after recently starting work at this new company, sanns communications, i find myself moving forward and higher. closing in on the peak of what i’ve wanted to do all this while.
once i thought that advertising was the way to go in my life. and then, i just got burnt out. i realised that what i have for advertising was not passion, but just a liking to the job. the job does entail a lot of crazy hours, ridiculous demands, sometimes flexi hours. but it has become such a "yes, sir" job that it has lost the meaning of campaigning for your own ideas…
i found a long lost passion for pr, rooting from my passions of rotaract. someone once told me that i’ll do great in advertising, based on the experience and the way i work through my projects. but unfortunately, it was very different kind of experience from what i was truly passionate about.
i recently just finish an event, some convention & awards… i had the chance to meet with some really great designers and so-called celebrities. where there were people afraid to even approach these guys, much less talk to them, i have made great friends and bonded with these fellas. from hosting them to taking to out clubbing / eating / sightseeing. it all ended on a good note, i have made not only friends but also potential business mates.
Thanks to rotaract again, because i’ve hosted a few international rotaractors from different countries, hosting these bunch of fellas from all over europe and the states were not much different, except that there w ere a few prima donnas, but nothing that was difficult to deal. they were very oblidging as long as i was accomodating too..
There’s definitely ppl that i must thank for pulling me through this…
gillian : thanks for introducing me to the job in the first place
idiots : u guys are my roots… without them, i would never have succeeded.
