You’ll meet them all again on their long journey to the middle. Lester Bangs, Almost Famous

Today, I made one of the most difficult decision in my life. I finally decided to leave the great company I have loved for five years. I will be there only until June 2008.

At this point there is no such thing as a happy decision. I loved it at the The Design People and always treated it as my own. The people who are working there I care a great deal about. I was there when we grew from five to over a hundred employees. Most of them I knew on a personal level. I saw people come and go. It is always sad when we see someone leave to look for better opportunities but I remain grateful and honored to have known such talented people. Now, it’s my time to say farewell. But I still have five months to fulfill whatever goals I have set for the company during the start of the year.

I foresee that this going to be a long series of goodbyes.

There is no longer an intention for me to look for a 8 to 5 job. This is the beginning of a long, difficult, crazy yet fulfilling road to entrepreneurship. I am ready. Sabi nga ni Madonna - I’m not afraid of what I’ll face but I’m afraid to stay.

I’m excited to see what the future holds for my one-woman empire.
