Rerouting? Not entirely.

Today is my second day in IIRR as an intern, and I am already flooded with stack of papers to copy-edit. I am happy though. It feels great to be in someplace where people are actually familiar with what we are and what we do, as DevCom. It may not be the fanciest place to be, but I am having a blast, surely. I am constantly wedged to unfamiliar documents in my desk making my head aches and my eyes sore. But, at the end of the day, I still feel fulfilled than weary.

In no doubt, I have crafted a heart for DevCom. Its principles and values, I have learned by rote. Despite the fact that not many people recognize us, I am full of pride, knowing our influence and selfless intent.

But then, till now, I am still unsure whether this is the career for me. Sometimes, I still feel that there are other lines of work that I can be good at. I am going to discover that. I know I am still young to turn up other things that may allow me to pull off other forms of success and pleasure. But, by taking other routes, I will always bear in my heart everything DevCom has taught me. And I know, after everything, I will be led back to where I started, to where I have grown a healthy heart.
