It's 2013! How time flies... Happy New Year!
2012 was a tumultuous year for me. I'm proud to say that I learned a lot about myself, and I was able to do some things I didn't know I was capable of. I had the pleasure and honor of working for an Ayala Land subsidiary (Alveo Land), and I met some cool hardworking people in the course of that stint (shout out to Orange Stallions!). I'm happy to say that my confidence went up accordingly, even as my wallet got lighter overall. I'm also ecstatic to add that last December 15, 2012, my fiancee and I went ahead and 'officially' got engaged by telling our parents of our plans to settle down by December 2013 (woot woot!!!).
Now, it's 2013, a new year again. It's time to really buckle down and start making some serious income. So I decided to go back to the BPO industry to get a steady income which is badly needed, especially with the upcoming events. I'm not saying goodbye to real estate, though, I'm just going to let it take a back seat for now. After all, I am a licensed broker, and that distinction is NOT easy to come by, especially in the years ahead, with plans to finally require a real estate course in college before you can get a license. However, if you want to get me as your broker to help you buy or sell property, just holler (or contact me via my Facebook page).
So this short post is only to greet you good people out there, and to announce my intentions. I know that things will work out, and good things will come to pass this year. For the licensed professionals like me, it's additionally the time to renew your CoR (certificate of registration with the BIR) and the PTR (with your local municipal hall). That's another Php 800 right there. But you know what they say, the only things permanent are change, death, and taxes.
Happy New Year! May God bless us all.
