Longing

Yes. Once again I am longing to write but unfortunately I could no longer "accept stress" - accepting new job that is. I am already at my 30 weeks and I feel like stress is taking its toll. I'm still an ESL tutor and I am about to celebrate my 6th year. Yeah! I can't believe either! I had the patience and endurance to keep my status in the company solid.

But I am suddenly feeling...bored. I don't grow anymore, well, professionally speaking. I like talking to student, I enjoy teaching them, I like my circle of friends, but it ends there. I have no more training, no new experience, no new knowledge. So when one of my friends invited me to join their company as a CSR, I impulsively grabbed the opportunity. Too bad, I wasn't able to continue for a longer time but the experience motivated me to try having a different career path. Now, I am seeking jobs online as a CSR or VA or date encoder or transcriptionist/transcriber or even a writer just to take a breather from verbal communication.

I haven't found one yet and my husband advised me not to rush because there would always be an opportunity waiting for me. Also, I am about to pop the cork at the end of August. Hehe! But the impatient in me took control and I sent applications to tons of job ads I found most appealing or which I am most suitable. Hehe, sorry Gibo ^_^

For now, I will just wait for the new opportunity. It's never been about the salary, it's the experience and the growth it would bring to me - personally. I have been selfless to my current company and it's a high time for me to give that time for myself.

Wishing myself good luck and lots of patience with the disappointment and frustration that comes with it.
