Set Meal Meme

Once again, from Friday's Feast, yet another Set Meal:

Appetizer
Choose one: moving to another state, having triplets, or never being able to eat chocolate again.
Move to another state/place. Metro Manila will always be my hometown, but I believe that if you have the freedom and the opportunity to move where you can enjoy a better quality of life, then by all means do so. I'm not quite sold on the idea of moving out of the country though, despite the nauseating political scene, but you can try to remove yourself from the thick of things in the mountains or on a deserted island still within the archipelago.

Soup
Name a news story that truly shocked you.
Dolphy and Zsa-zsa's wedding was called off? Good grief, what rock was I hiding under?

Salad
What was your very first job?
Advertising and Promotions Assistant for Viva Films, Inc. I was 18, hired a few weeks before college graduation, and I had a blast while it lasted. :-) My first job out of law school was as an underbar associate and later associate attorney at a very chichi Ayala Avenue boutique firm, a job I likewise landed even before I'd taken the Bar. I fell in love with them when the only important questions they asked at my interview were "Do you drink?" and "Do you play pusoy dos?" I adore those people to this day.

Main Course
If you had the chance to read the diary of someone you're really close to, would you? Why or why not?
Never. I have the utmost respect for another's privacy. Besides, ignorance is bliss. :-)

Dessert
What's something you're looking forward to?
Moving to BC, albeit temporarily (but who knows?), writing and walking and just doing everything I never quite get around to doing in Manila. Going to the beach or further up into the mountains on a whim, reconnecting with friends in a different setting, exploring new mission territories. Sleeping without airconditioning and waking up to "my view." Finding God :-)
