The Last Gamble
Yesterday was the longest Monday I've had in my life so far and still I find myself kind of happy and excited about what's yet to come. I've never felt like this before. You know the deal. Men fear what they don't know. Somehow, I just feel like I'm ready for anything, that I'm willing to gamble whatever I have right now for a better tomorrow. I've never been a risk-taker or a daredevil for that matter. I'm not the type that you could just ask to bungee jump with and will instantly oblige. I love my safe zone but yesterday I realized that there's no excitement in the safe zone, no progress, nothing. You have to take the risk and gamble while hoping for the best but at the same time, expecting the worst.
This is the first gamble. Yesterday was my first day as an official commuter. The whole ride from home to school wasn't that bad. I kind of enjoyed it considering I have my sister with me and there's no traffic to pull me out of my sanity. We woke up at 4 AM, left for school at 5 AM and arrived past 6 AM. I have to say it was awesome especially the feeling that I actually was able to go to school without bothering my mom about the transportation. It was fulfilling. The risk was all worth it because I learned a lot about the transport routes I never knew of when I was being a princess. I guess growing up isn't that depressing after all.
This is the second gamble. Yesterday was my first day as an official member of FrontRow. It's kind of funny that I'm not worried at all about the money I invested. Being there, it was easy to believe that everything's going to be fine considering that all the people there that I decided to join did not only assure me my return of investment but also a helping hand that would come to my rescue whenever I would need it. Honestly, joining FrontRow felt more like joining a circle of friends than joining a business circuit. I really think I made the right choice.
This is the last gamble. I'm a rookie at managing my time. I'm having doubts in my juggling abilities with all the developments going on with my life and my last semester in college starting to drive me crazy. But as I said, this is the last gamble. Maybe the last I'm going to take on in my life, maybe not. But whatever happens, I don't think I'm going to regret anything. This is going to work.
How do I know it's going to work?
Because I believe it.
