Click Happy Friday: Bye February
I know right. It’s only been a week since I declared my commitment *cough* to work on this Click Happy Friday category, and I already missed deadline by *glances at my desktop clock* almost two hours. Eep. :P But I do have an excuse. I mean, who wouldn’t trade a Friday night in front of the Mac with a Friday night with friends, and pizza, and ice cream, and caramel macchiato and roadtrip and endless, endless rants?
(I know, I know, I’m sorry. The Philippine politics is in chaos, there’s a big rally within 2 kilometers from where we were, and there was me with my friends, chillin’. I hide now.)
Anyway, here’s my click happy friday, albeit delayed by a few hours.
Good bye February, I’ll see you again soon.
Yesterday morning, as I was about to flip February’s page on my calendar, I suddenly thought of grabbing my camera to take some shots. After clicking here and there, I stared at the page, on to the dates, then on the empty boxes that I didn’t get to fill with appointments because I was too lazy (and busy) to even organize my schedule. And I sighed. Time does fly.
February has brought me lots of surprises (good and bad), disappointments and successes, consequences and rewards, and stress and joy in various forms and ways. At one point I struggled with wanting to stay young and careless and selfish — to live life and forget what other people think. Then I had to grow up overnight and learn to be accountable for other people’s work, face a whole new set of responsibilities, and walk through unchartered territories. February has given me my share of lessons on who to trust, how to ignore false judgments, when to move on, where to fix my eyes on, what to let go of and what to fight for. I was stuffed!
So yeah. I now leave February behind and face what the rest of the year holds, armed with a bunch of new weapons in the form of hard-earned lessons, a support group of trusted colleagues and friends, and a God whose bigger and beyond this world. Things are bound to get exciting, definitely. :)
P.S. Last day of the Internet Marketing Bootcamp tomorrow! See ya? :) Meanwhile, I have to catch some sleep.
