ok, so i did say that i'll be going to jakarta on the 30th...
well guess where i am now and it's only the 29th?? in jakarta!! i got here yesterday after having decided to come earlier since, according to my dear dad, "nagtatampo na si mom mo sa yo." so there. in the interest of making my mom happy, i am here in jakarta. and i'm living the life!! i always forget how much i like it here. i mean, besides being constantly with my family who i miss all the time, it's quiet and relaxing and it's just lovely. =) so yes, despite the fact that i miss my baby and my friends, i am quite glad to be here. glad to be the big sis, the other daughter, everything. i like our new house too, it's massive and it looks great. i'm also a little envious of my sisters, with their nice rooms, their cool things and the endless amount of good food in the house. hehehe.
my baby brought me to the airport early monday morning, which was really sweet of him. it sure did make leaving harder but it was great having him there all the same. he ended up staying at my house on sunday just to be able to bring me to the airport. it was great.. i never thought that he'd really stay. i was kidding him earlier during the day about staying the night so he can bring me to the airport and he kept saying no. and then, while we were in church, he leans over and tells me that he's not going to go home anymore. i was just so touched and so happy. touched because he's always said that he doesn't like bringing me to the airport after the first time he did because he felt super sad, sadder than if he hadn't seen me off. so it was great that he did. i thought i was going to cry when i said bye monday morning. haaay...
so it was cool, we got to hang out especially since we really didn't see much of each other the past week since he was busy with work and sleeping during the day and i was mostly out with my friends. it was a great thing that his break was during the weekend. great timing!!
man, i'm pretty envious of my friends at the moment because they get to watch xmen 2 this week and i can't because it's not out here. it's trivial but with everyone telling you how they'll be watching.... you can't help but be inggit!!
Dr. K told me the other day that he's thinking of putting me in shell... i juz had this feeling that he would so it was no surprise really. now i need to learn as much about shell as i can so i do ok during my interview. and i'm also planning to learn a little accounting, just so that i know how to do it. just in case. ugh. =P wish me luck!!
i had this major revelation today while i was out with my mom. it's that it's pretty hard to shop when you have a lot of money!!! sad but true! my parents gave me money to shop and buy whatever i want and now i'm oddly conscious of the price, the need, the quality, everything! it's so strange! in manila i'm generally, "I WANT THAT!" but now that i have the money, i keep saying, "mahal!!" i guess it's also because i have this fear that i'll use it all up in too short a time and i don't want to. i mean, that's the ultimate gastos na right?? using it all up in a short time?? so there... i'm being careful. but i'm super thankful to my parents, i totally didn't expect it. i didn't even believe them when they told me!! i totally thought they were just playing with me but then my mom was like, we're serious!! HOLY CRAP! you should've seen my face.
hehehe..
i like it here. i truly do. i only wish my baby was here and then it'll be complete.
