don't get me wrong, i still feel blessed that i was given this opportunity.  but now i'm also feeling the down side of everything.

i now realize that no matter how many times i explained something, there are people who just won't get it.  and if they misunderstood something you said, you will be quoted and tell everyone that you explained it incorrectly. i now found out what my friends actually meant before when they told me, "be nice to your trainees. hindi lahat ng tao kasing-talino mo."

and lastly, i'm now discovering that it is hard to balance a successful career and a healthy relationship.  somebody help me. nahihirapan ako. :(
