if we weren't in lawschool

the other day, mel and i got to talking about blockmates and what all of us would be doing if we weren't in law school. and we found a perfect one for my friend izzy (the most positive person anyone could ever hope to meet) which i promised to post here for her. so here goes.

if we weren't in law school...

...izzy would be a life coach. this is a career i wish i could afford to do. but izzy would be perfect for it. she could be the first one in our country! like those women in that show starting over. making the dreams of those too jaded to see come to reality. Isabel, the life coach.

...mel would be a top-notch journalist. you can see it from her work. she'd have like...a title. asia's writing gem or something like that. the christina pantoja-hidalgo of our generation.

...rosanne would be working for the government. on the track to becoming a cabinet secretary or something. and our country would be safe. she's so determined and diligent. our country would be in a good place under her supervision.

...tessa would be a big-ass executive for a multi-national corporation. i think she's not letting on, but she is one of the 2 people who know the secret formula for coca-cola - which came from the coca leaf and the cola nut. hehehe.

...leah would be working for the government as well. she's certainly trained for it (same course as sanne's, and diligent enough)

...eya would be a diplomat. maybe on the protocol team of the government. she's charming enough to entice our hostile neighbors to make peace pacts and the life. and chino is her secret weapon to win them over. the perfect son.

...elson would be working for accenture. or someother high-end techy consultancy firm. he's a good kid. and working alone in a cubicle would mature him up lots.

...carrie would be running her own business. that girl is lucky. and smart too. with that combination, i don't think any business would fail.

...mac would still be a lawyer. hehehe. i think that's all he's suited for. like, law is his priesthood.

...bj would be a pastor. and benj would be too.

...ron would be a full-time musician. he's really gifted. part-time musician, part-time literature professor. what a fun life.

...omar would be an executive heading an entire sales dept. that guy can sell just about anything. galing mambola. but really, he's the kind of guy you would trust with a purchase. maybe because he looks so wholesome. hehehe.

...vannie seems like she would make a good pre-school teacher. she has this aura that eases people. if i were a kid i would love to sit with her and color stuff.

...lorybeth would still be at P&G. the whole corporate world thing seems right up her ally. and sales. bagay talaga.

...len would be a fashion merchandiser. she puts interesting things together, and like me, is always on the lookout for cool new things to wear.

...gilbert would still be a physics professor, writing important papers. i think its so amazing that he can be good at both physics and law. his determination to succeed at both is something i really respect.

...rita would be an accountant. bagay yun kasi she's so reserved all the time. accountancy is a career that would allow her to make the big bucks without too much human interaction.

...marita would be senora mina, teaching advanced spanish. that and successfully married. the kind of woman who woule probably be in the society pages. she's always so poised and proper.

...jona would probably be a good economic adviser. i would trust her with our country's resources any day. magaling siya talaga. and masipag.

...nikki would be in a network, or in advertising. probably in client services. she's very machika. she would probably win the trust of the clients in a heartbeat.

...i think tere would make a good teacher. she discusses concepts very well and is always very personable. i would listen to her.

...i don't know nick well enough to see what he might be suited for.

...kc would be an accountant, because she already is, but like lory, would be well suited in a more corporate setting than just an accounting firm. i think marketing would be good for her too.

...justin would be one of those great professors that we only read about. tipong mr. hundert of the emperor's club.

...jok would be raking in the big bucks at a bigshot hospital in the states while shes studying to be a doctor. unang magiging mayaman sa amin.

...june would be in government i suppose. maybe in dswd. on the way to becoming the next dinky soliman.

...zang... i have to think about still.

...carlo already is an accountant. i think that he would also be a successful businessman if he wanted to be one. maalaga siya and takes notice of details.

...vp would make a great doctor. i know that he's already decided that he doesn't want to be a doctor, but i think he would make a really, really good one. he seems like someone who would have a great bedside manner if you were sick kasi he's mild-mannered. like my dentist.

...chicco would be in media. seems very right for media. ma-showbiz siya eh. to me he's like mori. very much so. as in. a mori in the making.


of course, i could very well be wrong. these are things that remind me of them. things i think they would be great at if we weren't in law school. i wish i'd get to know everyone better so i can make better judgments.
