leaving on a jet plane
Friday, February 22, 2008I’ll be leaving na tomorrow. I packed my luggages just now. It saddens me to leave kuya but what can I do, I need to leave. I was approved to stay here for 6 months, unfortunately I’m only on a 1 month leave. So, hindi pwede talaga to stay longer.He’ll get used to it again and I will, too..nakakalungkot. I really had fun here ’cause we’re together. I know that it may be months or years that I’ll see him again. Sana, soon..soon..soon ulit. hehe:)
He is such a good brother and son. At least, kahit papano I know na how he lives here…how he spends his time and everything. Before, I can only imagine what he does here or how he spends his time, now I know. Like ngayon, he’s really confused whether to stay here or move to SF. He’s convinced Nenet to go with him, sa wakas. There are a lot of things to be considered siyempre when moving out. Mas mataas ang cost of living sa SF though mas mataas din ang salary. Kaya naman he keeps on researching if it’s really wise to move out. He’s been in WI for almost 5 years, marami rin siyang igi-give up if in case. Sabi ko nga sa kanya, isipin niya if he still sees himself living in WI for another 5 years. Medyo laid back kasi dito. Told him that yeah, it’s difficult to leave your comfort zone but if he can’t see himself living here for another year or so, then marami pa naman siyang pwedeng puntahan. Of course, may pros and cons ang pagmo-move out but anyone can adapt to anywhere else rin in due time. At least, he can always go back here if in case ayaw niya pala don. Then he won’t have any regrets na hindi niya sinubukan. Mukhang mga friends niya rin are thinking of going to SF, mabuti para sama-sama pa rin sila. I’m happy that na si Nenet ang makakasama niya. Good for them. Siguro, they now want a more fast paced life…in a city that’s more alive
Yesterday we went out along with his friends. We had lunch and went afterwards to the factory outlets ng Gap, Liz Clairborne, Banana Rep etc. I bought lang some stuff for myself sa Gap. Imagine, I bought a blouse for less than 2$. Actually, we’re supposed to go to Chicago. He wanted me sana to see Chicago kaso the weather there was not really good, so we didn’t. But it’s okay. Nakauwi na kami past 7pm. Dumaan muna kami sa income tax something (hehe), ’cause filing of taxes time na for them so they’ll know how much is their tax refunds. Buti pa sa kanila may tax refunds talaga and some of his friends will get refunds like 4000 to 6000$, ang laki. The more that you have properties or dependents, mas malaki refunds. Anyway, I told him I wanted to print the photos, so pumunta muna kami Best Buy for the printing paper.
Well, all in all, I really enjoyed my stay here. His friends were all nice and accomodating. They treated me well especially Nenet. Hopefully, by December this year uwi ulit siya then off to SF na sila ni Nenet (if their plans will push through). Sana mag-push through ’cause I think, they’ll enjoy it more sa SF eh.
So, back to reality ulit ako hehe:) Hayyyyy….well, marami pang mga araw to decide on what I really wantto do hehe:)
