Ever since I graduated from university, I've been yearning to get out into the workforce. Everywhere I went, I was keen on observing everyone working around me. What intrigued me the most were the street vendors, taho men, fish and fruit vendors, and etc... Are they really simple jobs? Scaling the fish, carrying two gallons of taho for hours, selecting the best fruits are definitely not as simple as you think. These jobs require skill and experience. Don't be fooled by these manual laborers. I'm sure many of them work just as hard as the CEO of the biggest company in the Philippines (in a different way of course).
While I've been stressing over the wait for job offers, my friends and family have been telling me to "relax and enjoy because there's no turning back." As I contemplate over their advices, I realize they're absolutely right! However, work will not get off my mind that easily. As I take a break, I made a few sketches for my future paintings, all revolving around the theme: hard labour.

Hello there!
I don’t know if anyone will actually be reading this, but anyways… HELLO THERE! I’m Gia Mendoza, a recent university graduate. I actually started this blog in another publishing platform, but I failed to give the correct website at a job interview and instead, I mistakenly gave this website which I am using right now (thelittlegirltakesonabigworld.blogspot.com). I seriously don't know how I could have gotten that wrong! Right now, I'm actually transferring all my posts from the other blog to this blog that I unwittingly created on the spot, so as not to confuse my interviewers. As I transfer my posts, I realize blogspot is actually alot easier to use, so this should be a sign of fate! Anyways, I’m sure many of you (if there is anyone at all) may wonder why I have started blogging. I’ve always been pressured to start my own blog, but I’ve persistently refused. Who will read my posts anyways? But since I've graduated from university, I’ve been craving to do something productive with my life. I’m the kind of person who just can’t sit still! I just have to do something! Right now I’m just waiting for the results of my job applications. So while waiting, I’ll be typing away with my tiny blogger (or blogging?) fingers. Just like any blogger out there, my goal is to inspire people with my own thoughts and experiences. With this note… I have officially started my first blog!
