into the next level

April 7, 2010

Ian is now entering a new, and probably the most exciting stage, in his life: college. No one is more happy to see him graduate than our Lola who practically brought him up, supported his education, and has been a very good “parent” to him. Below is their picture before we left for the graduation venue.

 

  

Since he started fourth year high school, I had been asking him what he wanted to take in college. As of now, he’s still undecided, though that DepEd test recommends that he takes something related to fine arts, but nothing like those POS systems. He has a talent in drawing and designing. If I would choose for him, I want him to be an engineer or an architect. That sounds like a good title, right? He is also considering taking an IT course or computer science. Well, he has until May to think about it.

Of course, Ian also wanted Lola to march with him. He, after all, is the typical Lola’s boy.

It’s been a while since the last time I’ve been to work, almost a month I think. And with this long interval, I really REALLY do not want to go back. Though I haven’t been coming to the office, I’ve had several works online. Although it’s not as rewarding, it is not as tiring. Besides, with all the despairs I’m experiencing now, I do not want to go back. But of course, this can’t last forever. I had to go to work sometime, especially now, especially with the new challenge we have as a family now. I wish I have a cache of pieces of gold bullion to spend for the rest of life. I do not know if this zone is comfort, or if this is escape.

As I was talking to my friend, he told me, it’s really hard to leave this place. It’s true. Once you stay home for a while, it’s becoming harder and harder to leave. Time-space warp, indeed.
