Why and why not?!?

 I pre-registered in Market Market's Jobfair not knowing that coming there will open new horizons in my life.

A lot of good companies placed their own respective hubs in that event, each has its own gimmicks to attract jobseekers to drop in their resumes.  PLDT, E-Telecare, PeopleSupport, Accenture, NBI's mobile hub and others.

I was 10 steps away from a booth, having a not-so-clear-vision, i stepped closer and upon reaching the booth of Philippine Navy, I took a right turn. 

A lady, from that booth, white-skinned, chinita, on pony-tail, very smart-looking and well-postured, ran to me and gave me an application form and said,

"I just had a thought that you might get interested in joining the Philippine Navy.  Here's the form and the requirements.  It suits you, I think… Your personality and features blend well with what we're looking for.  I saw you roaming around earlier…. If you want, furnish us with the original copies of your credentials and you'll be schedule for exam."  

Still puzzled…. I went closer to the booth and read the tarps around. 

I said, "Oh.. I thought this is Philippine Air Force where Gretchen Malalad previously worked."

The lady said, "Air Force siya… but you might as well try here…" 

Still puzzled… I walked away with the form in my hand. 

Me…. in Phil. Navy?

Why…. ?

and why not?

I remembered my CAT days that I escaped in training by complaining about headache and dizziness. Several times that I collapsed.  Never did I think of joining something that relates to military, nor marrying military men and now I'm puzzled with this?

I texted my two closest friends that I am filling-up the form… duh? 

Got one reply saying, "Eh hindi ka nga marunong lumangoy…."

and the other one "Ayayayay!  Seriously?"

Ay! I can't swim… it made me think for a while after filling up the form.
Stuffs like that can be learned. 

Why not try taking the exams… there's no harm in making a shot out of somewhere…. diba?!?

Kakaibang nakakawindang na jobhunt ituh!
