I often ask myself what I really wanted to do with my life. I know that i am blessed to have this job but lately i keep asking myself if this is what i really wanted to do. I am here in Cebu, alone. I terribly miss home...my family in manila and my close friends. Spending weekend here in Cebu is really sad. I always think of home. I even asked myself if my family or my friends misses me too. I feel like crying, but im trying to hold back the tears. Minsan, im wishing that my mom and Charlene are here with me, i am even wishing that my bestfriend, Val would visit me soon. Even hoping that she finds a work here so we can be together. But she's got a life of her own. Hay, I cant wait for June 2008 to come so i can go back home.
This week i spent my monday and tuesday in cebu, i had my training. Wednesday i traveled to tagbilaran for another 2-day training. I went back cebu saturday afternoon. Im getting really exhausted of too much traveling. But i can't complain because this is what i do for a living, my friends would even envy me because of the perks of my job. Don't get me wrong, i thank God everyday for giving me this blessing.
I arrived Cebu 5pm yesterday, i went to the mall to pay my smart bro bill and went to supermarket too. I went home and cooked my dinner, the usual pansit canton and corned beef. I slept quite late coz im thinking of so many things. Today, sunday, i woke up 8am, drank my coffee, took a bath and heard mass. After mass i went to ayala mall and bought lunch, i ate it here at home. One thing i learned since i got here in cebu is to eat by myself. I used to tell myself that i would never do that, but what the heck, i got no choice. Sigh!
I spent my afternoon surfing the net, smoking, trying to sleep and watching tv. My cellphone never beeped. I got 2 messages this am from my student in negros whom i find weird. Anyways, i texted my mom and asked her how they are. Glad theyre ok.
As for my bestfriend Val, she seldoms text and she's always been like that. But i really do miss her. I know she's happy now, and i'm also happy for her.
This week, my close friend May will be having her training here in Cebu, good thing i am in town. She will be here for 3 nights. I plan to stay with her in her hotel. We will go out everynight. I can't wait to see and spend time with her.
That's it for now. I guess i will just watch tv and try to entertain myself...whew!

Det,
Even if you are far in Cebu, you are always one of the first people I think of when I need a friend. Seriously, even if we are not best friends, you are my favorite coffee buddy. That’s because you and I get each other. There are a lot of things I am too ashamed to tell my best friends. That’s because I expect them to scold me when I make wrong decisions, but with you, I know you will just listen and take it without passing judgment. Judith doesn’t even know I have a blog, because she will be furious if she finds out what Denver and I have been through for the past year.
I know you miss Manila and that you have mixed emotions about your current job. Remember what I told you. Don’t let the first major hurdle get you down. The challenges that you have are all part of the game. There’s no perfect job, and you will encounter all sorts of problems. Your boss will help mold you into becoming a better employee. You will come out stronger, and you might end up as tough as her in the end.
You are only young once. When you get older you will miss this independence that you have right now.
Always look at the brighter side of things!
If I were rich, I’d fly to Cebu to say hello!
Keep blogging ok? It’s always nice to read about what you have in mind.
Love you Det!
