Looking forward to even greater things!

Leica Carpo, one of the three big bosses of ARC Public Relations, is in the country for a vacation so they scheduled a team/ half-year celebration dinner at Milky Way Cafe.

It took us about 40 minutes of sitting in insane traffic to get from Lepanto Building in Paseo de Roxas to the restaurant in Arnaiz Street but the food was more than worth it!

These were just some of the I-don't-know-how-many dishes served to us last night!

Banana Split galore

Aside from kicking back with my officemates and not talk solely about work for a few hours, it was fun sharing stories with everyone and finally meeting the lady behind the name of the company I work for. Listening to Leica, Celine, and Jenny was very inspiring and enriching because they are three very independent ladies who know what they want and succeeded in getting them. As for me, I still don't know what I really want in life, I'm still trying to figure things out... All I know is that I want to have my own bookstore someday. But how am I going to do that? I don't know *casually faking my way through life*. A serious long-term planning is in order.

But in the meantime, I just feel really glad and thankful that I have a job I love in a company and industry I love, working with people I have great admiration and respect for. Not everyone can say they feel valued in their current job, so I feel really blessed that this job just somehow fell into my lap. I guess some things are just really meant to be.

I know bigger and brighter things are in store for ARC, and I'm happy to be part of it. :)

PS : I have blogged a brief backgrounder before about what it's like to work in PR and I was pleasantly surprised about the many messages and tweets I received saying how the post inspired most of you.
