It's sooner than I thought. At first I was looking at a year then shortened it to 6 months. but 2 months short of my new timeline, I'm back in Manila! Wohoo!
I spent the last 2 weeks of 2009 and 1st week of 2010 dealing with my grandmother's death. Grieving of course, but more on the day-to-day things in the funeral parlor and eventually the funeral. I haven't been running like a headless chicken like that. Everyday. I was always drained and so full of it. After the funeral, I found myself not wanting to go out, not having the energy to report to the firm, and just not wanting to do anything. I would deal with the aftermath of the funeral still. Collation of the receipts, thank you cards, and listing down the expenses.
Then one day, I was talking to Sher and as usual I was ranting bout how bored I was there. blah blah blah. And she commented, what the hell was I thinking packing up my things here and moving back there? I couldn't give an answer. As I have said, it was really a spontaneous decision. After that conversation, I hit the net searching on jobstreet.com, jobsdb.com and government websites. hahaha I was targeting government agencies. I didn't want to work in a law firm in Manila. I received a few rejections but one interesting government agency invited me for an interview. The next week, I was set to fly out to Manila. Then one week later, I got the job! Barely 2 weeks to wrap things up in Bacolod then I'm set to move back in Manila!
More than 2 months have passed, I'm enjoying it here. Sure I miss home, but not really Bacolod. hehehe I promised my dad that this is the last time I'm shipping my car anywhere else. So yes, I moved back here for good. =)
