People are selfish. They want everything. They don't care if other people are hurting as long as they're happy. *** I am selfish... *** Ryan and I are over. And though I ask for his friendship, I understand why he's ignoring me. I can't have everything, I know that now. I can't have his friendship and yet be the one to hurt him deeply. *** I understand. honest to goodness I do understand you pooh. It's just that it hurts to see you walk away, and avert your eyes whenever i pass by. I guess I really can't have it all, can I? The moment I said goodbye, I already lost you.

Two weeks have passed but here I am still floating on air. TO say that my trip back to the Philippines was bittersweet is an understatement. Gad, I can't even begin to desribe it. First time after three years of living abroad, I felt really happy again. Back to my roots, my hometown, to friends that never changed. It was both sad and happy at the same time. Sad, because three years of living in New Jersey made me see Philippines in a whole new light. Having experienced hassle-free traffic, and disciplined drivers made me disgusted with how driving works in the Philippines. And then the high prices of goods and commodities just plain made me speechless! What happened while I was gone? I wasn't gone that long but all the changes that transpired in my absence just confounds me. It took a little time to adjust to everything. My first week had me screaming for my life everytime I get into a car. All that swerving and tailgating just made my heart palpitate! Ahh well... I got used to it eventually though. It was also a happy experience because I've met up with friends from high school and college. Man, everything was just memorable... I swear I want to recount everything that transpired in the three weeks that I went back to my hometown but they are better left in my memories. Sealed deep within my heart. One thing I can say though is that it was a time for reconnecting some bridges, severing a few, and learning that people and places do change but there are just some stuff that would remain the same, like friendship and love. :) Anyway, here's a little glimpse of what happened on my three-week vacation. Let the pictures tell their own story. :) That was my first week in the Philippines... and though it was fun... nothing could really compare my time with the friends I grew up with, these guys: Gaad, i miss these guys soooo bad! I will post more pictures soon... |
