During a certain final interview:
Mr. Kim: (In a Korean accent) What is your ambition in life?
Me: To be happy. *wink*wink*
I don't know why those three words came out of my foolish mouth last Friday afternoon. I was just thinking of something else to answer when, unconsciously, my overworked brain told my dumb larynx to utter those unusual words. I seriously saw the flabbergasted faces of Mr. Kim and Ms. Dolly and it appeared as if they fell off their chairs due to my simple yet quasi-insane answer. Haha. :)
Most of the time, when asked with the same question, I would easily say that I want to be a professor or clinical instructor for the UST College of Nursing while taking my Doctorate Degree in Developmental Studied or a Doctorate Degree in Nursing at the UP Open University. After which, I'll try to become the first male dean of the UST-CON. Wow. Talk about hard work, right attitude and motivation. Haha. :)
Honestly, as we speak, I just want to be seriously happy. I've been through a lot of messy and scary stuff this year and I can't seem to comprehend any of them: my failed application for the AFP Nurse Corps., freeze hiring at the UST Hospital, family issues, financial instability and the ever bloody love life problems. I did ask the Lord God about His "GREAT PLAN" about my personal (esp. love) and professional life and, unfortunately, I got the usual painstaking and hard-hitting answer: Silence. *sigh* :(
I mean, seriously, He could've just asked one of his noble and trusty angels to come to my aid here on Earth and deliver His "GREAT PLAN" ever for my jaded/broken/twisted life. I could have chosen the right options at the right time with the right person in the right manner without feeling any sense of doubt, shame, remorse, anger and tremendous guilt. *sigh* :(
But, come to think of it, maybe He just wants me to figure everything out on my own so that I could learn something new about my unique personality and the people around me. Errr. I honestly don't know.
Patience is a virtue. All things come to those who wait. Luckily, I have tons of time to spare.
Blah! Too much Internet space has been used for this rubbish entry! Haha. :)
Coffee, anyone?
