Come true

March 24, 2010

It was a lazy, humid afternoon. The asphalt was as good as melted and our sweat clung to our clothes, refusing to evaporate. It was a month or so before our last day at the university. We were sitting in an empty classroom, talking about our plans.

“My top one career choice is to write for a magazine! It’s such a glamorous job! My top two is in advertising or PR. Top three is…I don’t know. Marketing probably, since I’ve already done it,” I said. A couple of months later I was in marketing. Eight months after that (February) I was editor of an online news magazine. A month after that, I was doing freelance work for PR companies. 

Funny how things turn out. Or maybe not. It’s really all up to us to make everything we want come true. That’s never easy.
