my new life in cebu...

I was out of town for 3 weeks, i went to bacolod, then manila (for a week) then tagbilaran...all because of work. I was looking forward to going back home. My flight was bcd-mnl sept. 27... and It felt so good when we landed in NAIA...
Anyways i stayed in manila because we had this trainer's calibration, i thought it was petiks at work, but i was wrong, we had sooo many things to do. Anyways, i was so glad to see my family, my co-workers especially rhea and may. Monday morning, i woke up early coz i dont want to be late...But the traffic was so heavy, it really pissed me off. I dont know why, probably im not used to heavy traffic anymore. Yeah there's traffic here in cebu but it wasnt that bad. Tuesday-Friday, it was the same banana..Heavy Traffic in the morning and in the evening. Tanginang shit! im not used to it anymore...Waaahhh
All of a sudden, it felt different. I was looking forward to going back to Cebu. I dont know why, pero siguro naka adjust na din ako. But i am happy to be spending time with my family..Mom would serve home cook meal for me coz she knows that the only thing i eat here is canned goods and pansit canton, i guess that's the reason why i gained freakin' 10lbs... :-(
I wasnt able to see some of my friends, like bebot and georgie, too bad coz i was so busy. After work i just wanted to go home right away. Saturday, i met up with Val...We both decided to check out this new mall called Trinoma...It was nice but the crowd sucks...what is jologs...we watched Chuck and Larry and met up with gege and jeff for dinner in Serendra. I miss spending time with Val...I would always tell her to come visit me in Cebu, but i understand her reason why she can't now...Val is happy now, and i think she really is...In some ways i am also happy for her coz i know she's in a bliss...But i guess it would really take a while for me to understand everything. And i hope she will not take it against me coz it was all new to me, something i never really expected to be happening to the two of us. I now believe that the only constant in this world is change. I feel though that this whole thing is creating tension on our friendship. It is sad...I know she's happy even if im not in manila coz she's with someone special now...I guess i am also in a way happy that i am now adjusting to my new life here in cebu...away from my family and close friends. Anyway, I was out with my boss last night, he went here for work and we had a talk...i just blurted out that i might probably stay for another year if i am already well adjusted to my new life here. Sometimes i feel that when i go home, the people that would be really looking forward to see me is my family and friends at work...If i could meet my better half here in Cebu, i would really stay here for good...make manila my second home...I still feel sad once in a while, but i am happy with my achievement so far...I am still looking forward to going back to manila and see my close friends...I miss my family but i am happy to be where i am right now....
