bermuda preps naman
Araw ng Kagitingan
i spent the long weekend shopping for things to bring to Bermuda. was lucky enough to meet MEG! Meg is a local brand of blouses which i hounded on Saturday and Sunday. long sleeve tops are 3 for P 1,000 only! really a good deal, especially since i needed a lot.
oh well. suffice it to say that Saturday and Sunday mornings were spent at Greenhills and afternoons in Megamall. oh, we had additional itinerary last Sunday, with verna, tata and ken in tow, we also went to Robinson's Galleria.. whew!
now, i'm sooo poor!!!
Guts
i tendered my resignation yesterday, even without my Work Permit. huhuuu.. i hope i won't have any problems with the Immigration and the POEA.
Spreading the Word
all my relatives know i'm leaving soon... actually, they know more than that.
i wish a certain person would respect my privacy. i wish she gave consideration to what i would feel, to what is proper, what is confidential. i wish she would think before shooting her mouth off. why is she making my life difficult. sometimes i really really hate her, i wish her gone. or that i was gone.
there are a lot of things i'm mad about right now and not just her.
i wish people would be considerate enough to see that i'm leaving to work for my future, not for their needs. i wish they gave thought to what they'd need before entering something, that they stop expecting help from others and stand on their own feet. not that i'm being selfish. i just hate it that they "depend" and "expect"...
oh, and i hate people suddenly wanting to meet up just because i'm leaving when they couldn't care less ordinarily.. when they couldn't find time before.
i wish they didn't know. i wish i just went my way.

grace, i feel for you. being on this situation really requires us to be strong and patient.
thinking about yourself is not selfish. you don't have to force yourself to carry the burden of others. in this case, holding you back makes them selfish...or... they just can't let you go. right about now, i'm preparing myself for the loneliness i'd have to face when i leave. we should learn to do that. but for now, let's just enjoy their company. i'm sure you'll miss them too, good and bad. cheer up!
*hugs*
sis, don't worry about them. worry about you for a change. the problem with "oldy" pinoy culture is that they send us to study in good schools and what us to succeed but when we imbibe the mindset of yearning for greener pastures, they put us down and want us to stay where we are. another double standard, don't you think? Let them gripe. They're just miserable because they didn't take the chance when they did. You're living the life the way you want it. Be happy--you deserve it!
:D
