Full throttle!
Wednesday, May 17, 2006
Im back. We were not able to go to Bulacan today. Biglang tinamad si daddy nung nagpapapagas kame sa Petron. So we just brought my cousin to the MRT station and went to SM instead. I bought some stuff that I am gonna need at my dorm. 6 pairs of black socks and 2 slippers. While we were in SM. My dad saw this Toyota Vios and started asking the agent about the price and details and stuff, and while they were having a conversation about the car, I suddenly heard him telling the agent about me.

Etong anak ko eh, kung nag Nursing lang sana ibibili ko kaagad ng kotse, Eh kaso nag piloto eh.

Then the agent suddenly started talking to me. As if he was trying to convince me to take up Nursing instead, so I could have a car. I was also thinking. What if I chose to be a nurse? Then I would be driving going to UST in my car. Oohh.. Earlier this morning, my cousin from Los Angeles called us. She was a nurse, and yes, she earns big bucks. She was even telling me that she just got her brand new Lexus this week. I was like, WOW! you are driving a Lexus! When we were there last year, their car was an old Honda civic. And it is really old. Just after a year of work, she already has a brand new car. Then she asked me...

o ano? Nursing ka na?

Then I was like,

Hindi. Nag piloto nalang ako. (in a soft voice manner)

When I was in the States, they were all telling me to take up Nursing; because most of my cousins are Nurses; my parents are both Nurses; and almost all of my cousins in college are taking up Nursing.. We are like becoming the clan of Nurses. Man, that would be odd for me, I will be the only one who will be taking up a different course. When my cousin learned that I will take up Aviation. She was asking me why? Then I let her speak to my dad, and my dad said it all. It was really my dream to be a pilot. My dad tried to discourage me but still I am holding on to it. I dont care if Nurses earn a lot of money. Infact, pilots earn a lot more if you are qualified as an Airline pilot. And I would not exchange having the privilege of driving my own car to a big university for the joy of flying airplanes. I may not drive a luxurious car that cruises at 200 km/hr; but i would rather fly an aircraft that flies at 39000ft, at 500 knots. hahaha!:D

About Gabelle, I really did something very stupid.. I forgot something.. I just cant imagine the fact that I forgot it.. It was last Monday, and I think that she is mad at me... I hope things will be ok for us..
