Journal 1................. Unfinished Struggle.


June 25, 2009

This is the day of submission of the assignment 1 in MIS on the forum. It is also the time that we look for an interview company. Along with our letter without the signature of our teacher we still go visiting the company we chose praying that they may allow us to have an ambush interview with them..

Before starting our journey, we first give a call into the company and asked for approval if they will allow us to have an ambush interview with their IS/IT personnel in their MIS department. We decided that our first destination would be at Lanang in the Phoenix Petroleum company.

We come up with the idea of going there because of the suggestion of one of our colleagues. But sad to say, we haven't the opportunity to have an interview with them for they need to see our letter for formality and confidentiality. They said that we can e.mail them our letter along with purpose for the interview. It is unsuccessful journey because we failed.

As the saying goes, “Try and try until success is achieve”. Don't give up halfway for there is always a new day tomorrow. Who knows? It may not happen that day but perhaps the next day and so on.

Success is not earned in just one day but the capacity of the heart to wait & go on to survive is what matters most. Success is not by fate or luck but it is made by diligent and good hearted man just like us!!! Just continue living and strive to be happy always. They said tomorrow is another day and yet life is worth living!!! See you aroung bloggers!!!
