I have so many scattered thoughts today. And I don't know how I would judge as to how my week has gone by.
It seemed like everything happened in a blur. I have been waiting and really praying to get in at IBS. I was somehow trying to think less of it during those two weeks of waiting.
And at last, Laks called me last Monday - saying that I passed and all that.
Instead of having job offer frist, did the pre-employment exam Tuesday.
Original start date should have been on the first of December. My dilemma was that fear of having my 13th month pay held back because of my plan to resign.
And then the remuneration was good - all those benefits are really, I don't know "captivating" so to speak. But all, including the allowance are TAXABLE. (Yeah, darn.)
So I did what I always do - THINK. And devise plans.. For me there is always Plan A and Plan B. Since I hate losing control over things.
And I worried. Which is inevitable. December is supposed to be like the money month. And if I decide to resign now - it felt like I am going to be the only person who is poor this coming holiday. (silly thought, I know.)
So I prayed - and hoped to God that if getting in is really in His plan, all would be smooth.
I again remembered Romans 8:28 "All things work together for the good.."
I was able to settle an agreement with my next company - and they agreed that I could start on the 16th instead. (Yipee!)
So Thursday, I signed the contract.
After a week of stress - it is over. FINALLY.
And as the week ends, I am trying to evaluate all that happened and get back to my own track.
Thanks to Hunny, who has always been supportive and was willing to listen to my rants and reasoning.
To my friends - who all gave their two cents on what I needed to do.
In the end, I think it all boils down to one thing. I can do and think and stress myself all I want.
But it is still HIS plan that prevails.
I have again, learned my lesson.
And I am grateful to God. Knowing that He still answers my prayers.
Even if I don't go to church that often.
I should be ashamed I guess.
