Un Momento

One moment of peace and quiet. Manila is so serene during the Holy Week.

For two consecutive years, I spent the Holy Week in Lucena with The X. Spending it in Manila now is something I welcome.

I had all the time to gather my thoughts to do some writing, watch all the movies I like on video, be with my Mom and Grandma and just stay home to vegetate.

Soooo good. I wish I could extend the Holy Week break. Though I'm excited to move on to THE new company and work with my new team. Woohoo!


Him

It woke my blogger up - what with the messages posted by friends about the Good Ol' Friend. Chegay, yep that's him.

Nothing is concrete yet, though. I don't want to be unfair so it's better to take things a wee bit slower this time.

Which reminds me, I need to pack after blogging. We're spending the weekend together to get some tan under the sun!


The Buddy in Afghanistan

Spoke to The Buddy this afternoon. He is bound to be flown in to Afghanistan. He was somewhere in Kyrgyzstan - you know - one of those "tan" countries (Uzbekiztan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan) which were all difficult to pronounce.

I wasn't as worried as before. Late last year, I was freaking out that he will be deployed in Iraq or Afghanistan for his tour of duty. I decided not to be a damsel in distress over a knight in shining armor trying to save the world from the Taliban. Plus, I realized, I wasn't gonna subject myself to the agony of being his stopover girlfriend. I'm just not into that.

We're still good friends. I still love him... a lot. And we will always, always be good friends. But if it wasn't meant to be, then I'm really not gonna force it.

Who knows what could happen, though? So what's best right now is send him a care package and support the US troops in the Mid East!
