I know I'm blessed but still confused

I'm considered lucky to have what I have right now. ^^

March of 2009, I graduated from college.

April of 2009, I have my first job as accountant though the course that I have taken up was Tourism..(see the connection? I don't think so..)

One and a half after my first job, I filed for resignation. I was not particularly happy with the job itself though the colleagues are very much ok.

It was not something I really DREAMED of becoming... A Flight Attendant! But one led to the other and I ended up liking it. and VERY MUCH!

August 2010, another Qatar Openday in Manila for many other applicants but for me, this was the first. I had low self-confidence eversince God knows when. Well, being so unsure and dragged by my friend to go with her, I went.. I have never seen so much applicants for a company. How in heaven's name am I going to get into this?? Well, as expected, I didn't received the GOLDEN CALL. Not too much depression with this. Two weeks later, I found myself at the HR department of Cebu Pacific. Pretty much hopeful that I CAN get in. I was a chinese, I speak the language, I was confident that it was really an advantage. YES it is really an advantage. But hey, welcome to reality! In the Philippines, the looks count much more than anything that you can offer. I'm tall, I'm qualified but hello hello, the LOOKS! I'm not a head-turner.. I failed, complexion problem as she said...? It was quite some depression that I suffered from for a couple of weeks.. I was thinking of giving up already.

2 weeks later, I was again in an office waiting for the interview. This time, for Airphil Express. I passed! I was really happy!! After half a month of going through exams and interview, I passed all the way and was accepted to start my training with them. Then PAL called, I'm scheduled to have the executive panel interview with them on the 22nd of november. It was a miracle that I got so far with this and pretty much excited for it.

What should I choose if I also passed PAL?

God gave me more than what I asked for. I don't want to loose this opportunity. I was so blessed that I have these when many others are still struggling to make it.
