Going solo

Yesterday, after I had taken the exam and my shift with Ate Michelle, my training was officially over. Come Monday, there will be no trainor to watch over me. I'm going solo.

And it kind of scares me.

That means anything that goes wrong falls under my responsibility. And in my line of work, a small error could mean a lot. I'm talking P1.5M worth of paint. Whew. But I can't say if I'm really cut out for this kind of work unless I can do it on my own. Anyway, my trainor says I passed. I'm just still a little nervous, because I suffer from short-term memory loss, which is a big no-no if you're a process engineer. Or maybe that was because I watch too many DVDs at late nights.

This brings me to my next dilema. Recently there has been a pouring of invitations to gatherings. There was the baptism/anniversary of our church (which I declined at the last minute), KEM overnyt, APC Anniversary, and SFC House of Praise. And I am unsure whether I can attend them. I don't know if the Plants will grant me a leave, because I am still "trainee status" and admittedly in need of practice.

*Sigh* I'll be happy if I could attend just one of the events.
