This way to the stars

But wait - I actually AM getting paid for it!

In fact, I'm getting paid a LOT!

Apparently Ms. Evelyn So-Lao, the General Manager of Orange Innovative Technologies, Inc. (one of those people whose profiles I edited in the write-up), and my Beloved Pater thought that the revisions I made were really good. So good, in fact, that they will pay me P1000 for it!

Now that's what I call easy money! Haha! It's the easiest money I've ever earned in my life (which isn't saying much, considering that I've practically never earned anything in my life, but still). They say that they pay me big to get me motivated on editing yet ANOTHER write-up, this time regarding First Magellan Overseas Corp. Interestingly, this write-up/letter/sleazy effort to present a credible image and to sell, sell, sell was actually written by my Own Dear Uncle, the said corporation's marketing director. Editing this albeit rather long write-up would be fun; it'd be great throwing my Dear Uncle's usual criticism (usually delivered through annoying, crass humor) in his face.

Backstabbing galore! But in the meantime, I shall revel in the realization that I'm actually paid for doing easy stuff! Coolio!

By the way, the first issue of National Geographic magazine (from my mom's gift subscription) arrived this week. The articles were very illuminating; stem cell research could be so promising if only people would give up their conservative qualms about it. Also, who knew that by sending two probes to take pictures of Martian rocks, scientists could infer whether there had been water, and thus life, on Mars?

Thanks Mom! You always know exactly what I need. I miss you. :(
