Basa sa Ulan

I was in Makati yesterday applying for a supposed ad agency. My father arrived earlier yesterday and told me that some relative of ours was gonna interview me. He said it was some ad agency. So I figured maybe I could try it out.

So I went there through MRT with my cousin. Then we took a cab hoping the driver knew the building. We haven't got the vacuest idea where it was. My father just told me it was in Pasong Tamo Makati and the building's name was King's Court.

The driver knew the place but the traffic was so bad he has to drop us off and told us we could walk to get to the place. And we did. We walked... and walked.. and walked until we got tired and rested for a while at Mister Donut. Then when we were about to continue the ultimate search for the building, it rained... so hard.

We stayed for a while hoping the rain would stop but it didn't. So we continued the search anyway. We asked every guard that we come across with but to no avail. They didn't know where the place was. Until the "supposed relative" answered my message and texted me the exact location. It was like we were going around in circles. We turned left then turned left again then right and we would find ourselves in the same spot where we started off.

We continued anyway until we saw this gurad and asked. He pointed his fingers to the building which was like the place we started. We were so exhausted and wet. Wet because of the rain and maybe because of the sweat.

We reacehd the building and figured that it had no name from the outside or from the road. That was why we had a hard time finding it. Now we did... after like 3hours of walking. We entered the building very wet, tired and exhausted.

It wasn't an ad agency. It was a medical jounral something... But I was there so what the heck, I said.

I was interviewed by "supposed relative." She asked a lot of things; my salary preference, what i love doing, my family, etc... The she told me that they would call me for an interview within this week.

And earlier today they did. My first job interview will be on May 20 2pm at their building. Whatever happens there It would be totally okay.
