In the Enemy's Territory

It's a Saturday and I want a fast forward to Monday, April 30, 2012.

Last Wednesday, I don't know what got into me when I hurriedly went to my room, take my laptop and check my email and other accounts. I clicked the logo of GMA-7 in Jobstreet first thing when I got connected to the internet. I applied in a job opening then after two hours I got a text from them. The next day, I am in GMA-7 having my interview with the HR and after the managers.


I just wanna share a weird statement I answered in my interview and I still can't get over it:


HR: What is your weakness Michael?


Me: LOVE? Hahahaha!


HR: Cheezy ka ha!! Hahahaha!!

It was not the typical answer you get from someone who's applying for a certain position. But it was really the first thing that popped my mind. And I'm not at all ashamed of my answer. I think for reasons I got the HR's attention. (Hahaha)

It was kinda weird to be in "the enemy's territory". I didn't imagine myself even setting foot on that station. I was a Kapamilya since I the time we first had a television set in the province. There were times when I watched GMA-7 shows but I have to say I am not really a fan. Even when I was taking up Mass Communication at FEU, I really didn't think I would be in GMA-7 at the most watching a live show in the studio.

But here I am, smarter, setting foot again on GMA-7 on Monday for my final interview with the department's Vice President. And I am excited for it. Not the normal me. I don't why but there is something that tells me this is my future. And I have to work my way up.

Whatever the outcome on Monday with my interview and hopefully they give me the exam already, I will accept. For whatever it is, this is what God is telling me to do, to go and to love.
To God Be The Glory!
