S H I F T (part two)

after spending 8 hours in my family farm ( Kinawe Libona, Bukidnon ), it resulted to another reflection session while facing the mighty mountains of Bukidnon against the strong mountain breeze. Kataw! Sembreak is not just a break for me but it is a transition of thoughts cz im shifting next sem. I'm shifting courses and i keep on repeating this cz its a Big decision that will alter my life! It needs the recollecting the past in order to understand your future while acting now. The list below are the things i picked up in the past that somehow link to my shift to the school of business and management...

Office supplies. Wow! i can still remember that whenever i go to the bookstore as a kid, i would always go to the office supplies. i don't know why but i was fond on looking at paperclips, pens, calendars... wierdo!
Management books section. since i considered national bookstore as a library, i will always proceed to this section of the store. i love scanning at books about how to's... 10 things... manage people...
i even bought a book about team building when i was in 4th year.
The Apprentice. Your're fired! i love that show... i would really sleep late when i was in 3rd year just to watch it and i watched the whole season. Ambot! gakalingaw gyud ko...
Capitalsim II. This is a business simulation game (from retail, stocks, manufacturing, farming, minig, logging). I love this game! i first discovered it in the internet when i was in 2nd year. i then searched all cd stores in cdo. Wala gyud koy nakita! Then that summer, we went to manila. I went to Vera Mall in San Juan just to scan for that CD! Martyr?! and i found it! I love playing it since.
LC Chairmanship. One thing i really enjoyed in this heavy responsibility of being the chairman of Xavier University High School is dealing with ideas, protocols, communication systems, plans, principles, people, resources, programs, implementation, evaluation and organizational structures.... i just love doing it!
Grade School Business. Believe it or not, i sold cheese stick (manufactured by ma'am aunt) when i was in grade 6 (also 1st, 2nd and 3rd year high school ). A class-based business, i really had a hang of it cz i went to the extent at extending my market to other sections! to the extent of creating a demand monitoring system called the "Cheese Stick Composite INdex)!!! hala oi, kataw gyud! i earned naman sad.

LESSON: So my message to those who will shift: Understand yourself, recollect and decide. (pasalamat lng ko na supportive ako parents:-)
