oy yoy yoy...

the past 3 days have been ridiculous. 2 hours after i wrote my last post EVERYTHING shifted. i got emails from friends about 6 opportunities in colombia and an out of the blue phone call from an amazing company based in NYC, heller communication design. this phone call was warranted supposedly from a really ballsy email i sent them asking if there was anyway i could attend their good brand camp at a discounted price. little did i know this would lead to a job negotiation. since then i have spoken to the co-founder and ceo of the company and have a "meeting" next thursday after the good brand camp workshop. it is literally everything i would be looking for in a job in the US; small and intimate workplace, innovation, design, creativity, risk taking, and humor.

now what about colombia...

within the next 10 years i want to do something involving social entrepreneurship, innovation and cultural experience. i had no preference for the order, so due to the HORRIBLE employment situation in the US i had decided to do my cultural experience first, throwing some social entrepreneurship in there by starting my own project. now that this opportunity is potentially in the mix i need to sit back and think about everything...

but who knows? maybe after next thursday ill realize things with hellercd just wont work out for either them or me and i will be off to colombia.

until then, ill just focus on doing things that make me happy and continue to take risks :)

so either you'll be a subway ride away or an excuse for me to go back to colombia. i think i'll be ok with either :)
