Today was a pretty uneventful and rainy day, but it gave me time to absorb what happened to me last 2 days. 

I had an interview last Wednesday with the GM of an international TV station, based in a US territory outside the Philippines, an Asia-Pacific affiliate of Fox and ABC.  After the interview, they promised to call me by noon the following day.  I was pretty hopeful, but I guess until I see anything in black and white or actually get the call, I won't keep my hopes up yet.

Come Thursday around noonish, I was on my scooter.  And at a stoplight, I had the instinct to check my phone... and I got a missed call.  I tried calling the number, but it wouldn't connect.  I kinda figured was a special hotel number or a roaming number, as the number registered on my phone as 09**-1111111.  I was about 2 blocks away from the hotel where I had my interview, and I figured I'd take the chance to go there and see if the guy who interviewed me was in the lobby, trying to make a call. 

A bit nervous, I walked to the hotel lobby, and true enough I saw him there.  He was surprised to see me, because he was just trying to call me.  We had a short conversation, about people he wanted me to meet, and some of his plans with me in them.  And at the end of the conversation, he shook my hand and said "I look forward to working with you."

They're getting me to produce TV shows for them.  There's a chance they'll be flying me around regularly.  If things work out, I may even get noticed by the networks in the mainland (FOX and ABC), they said.  

I haven't gotten anything in writing yet, so I don't want to get too excited about getting the job they're offering me.  But in a way, yes, I guess I must admit I AM excited.  If I do get the black and white papers within the next few days, I'll be posting it here.  They said I might be starting to work for them as early as next week.  For now, I'll have to write about my anxious waiting, and a little nervous excitement building up.

This can be a big chance.  I love taking chances and risks, but this could be real huge.  I have to remember to take it one step at a time.  I think I've went through a lot already for me to earn this chance.  

Will see how the next few days go...
