Out with the Old... In with the New!

I've decided to change the interface of my blog again.

Hopefully, this will get me to start writing again.

Work wise, I know many changes are coming too! Now, I am asked to think about a contingency plan - a "what if" just in case the worst case scenario happens. Of course, the responsible answer would be to call my 'Port Uncle', ask for forgiveness and slave away under him. But, just for fun, I've decided to enumerate all the possibilities in the most exaggerated manner possible.

Here they are:

Contingency Plan #1: Become a Men's Fashion Consultant

This might come out weird to you but as I told Holly a while back, this makes a lot of sense. I grew up with my old school, suit wearing, polo shirt playing, movie screening going grandfather. I grew up with three gay uncles (one being a fashion designer) and I've done it countless of times for my 'He-was-a-skater-boy-now-a-hotshot-dj' cousin. I look towards the men section first before the female in any clothing store I enter. I know what goods look in a man (definitely not jeans and slippers combined) and I know how to spot a good color combination. In addition, I'm a self proclaimed tomboy-chic wannabe. :)

Here's the plan: 1.) Whatever I save up from my job now, I use to pay my rent for the next X no. of months. 2.) I work from home using my cousin's wifi and my laptop to set up a website and contact old friends who are now making a name for themselves. 3.) I offer them a deal in which they pay for my services while they shop so that I can point out which should be the ones they buy or not. 4.) They pay me 1.5K for the whole day or 1K for the half day

Yay or Nay?


Contingency Plan #2: Try Out For the Big G!

Ever since I was in college, Google has always been the benchmark for what is a good and innovative company. Since I heard about them setting up shop nearby, I've been thinking if I'm fit for them. I love slides (and I don't mind using one to go to lunch)! I love computers (I'm addicted to mine). I love getting information (ask the people I work with, I Google everything). More importantly, I'm a fan of Project Glass and my dream is to be the first one here in the country to try it out (still hoping for that one).

The Plan: 1.) I start researching on ways to apply. 2.) Brush up on company history, fun facts and start listing down questions I need to ask. 3.) Apply 4.) Wait for their call until the world ends.

Yay or Nay?


Contingency Plan #3: Set Up Shop...

I'm a little bit flustered on how little time I'm able to spend with Holly and our Indie Publishing project. Although, things are going well, I'm still not able to see my own personal ROI and I blame not marketing my part well enough and source out better suppliers to provide the Kits. But, if I do end up working for my 'Port Uncle', I'm going to ask for a 3 times a week work schedule where I can give the other 3 days to working with Holly.

Given my expectations: here's the plan: 1.) Beg for forgiveness from my uncle and ask if I can still take his previous offer. 2.) Talk to Holly and make sure she agrees with the plan 3.) Start working for my uncle 4.) Get better suppliers with Holly 5.) Make sure I'm able to pay rent on time.



Yay or Nay?

Again, these are just some exaggerated scenarios. However, as always, exaggerations always seem like the adventurous choice.
