Breaking the silence

I haven’t written anything for the past month.

Not that there wasn’t anything significant that happened. Truth is, I was working on another major life decision and I didn’t have the liberty to discuss it until everything was finalized.

Yep, I didn’t want to preempt anything. Thus, the code of silence until it was very definite and there was already something concrete on the table.

So…

Finally, I am moving on to another company. I will be starting with them in April – woohoo!

It’s exciting since I’m going back to the industry I love and I will be doing things I was doing before I got into cosmetics and beauty (not that I didn’t like make-up and all the pampering of beauty products). The company I will be in is very stable and formidable – one of the top 5, in fact.

I will miss my discounted make-up, clothes, bags and kikay stuff. I’ll definitely miss my press launches, events and wonderful media friends.

But I’m definitely looking forward to a new mobile phone and most likely a new car (it’s part of my benefits package but I’m having second thoughts on getting a new car since Anita – my ever-reliable City – has a strong sentimental value).

Goodbye to the glamorous yet stressful life of being a marketing and PR lady.

Hello to a familiar yet competitive and also oh-so toxic IT and telecom career.

The geek girl is back!
