back home!

I'm finally able to blog again! hehe Just got back to Manila last night...Still in jetlag mode today, but I still had to go to CKSC for our rehearsal for tomorrows performance.

I've got loads of stories to tell. I've met a lot of different personalitites during our stay there. Different kinds of people that I never imagined ever existed. There are people who just like to butt into other people's conversations, and those that take over the bathroom for hours at a time, people who just feel that they "own" their crushes, moms that think money makes the world go round, etc etc.

Even with the weirdo's I've encountered, I still miss my life in Beijing! I miss the freedom I had to go around at night, taking a stroll around campus in the morning and at nite, eating bbq mushroom or "ji pai", talking with our neighbours till super late while eating Lay's, etc etc. Somehow I feel, that I've grown roots there. 50 days was just too short...We were getting ready to leave just when everybody was starting to get used to life there. We were alwasys saying "bukas na lang" but we never realized that every day that passed meant that our Beijing life was getting nearer to its end. I wished that we could have extended the trip for a few more days. Now, I feel that UIBE-ISC is my home. Although yeah, my home here in Manila will always be the place I go to after I end a journey.

I feel that it is about time that I go out and live on my own. I have to learn to stand on my own, making decisions for myself. I may fall on the way but this is my life. At least I know that I have lived my life to the fullest.

That for me is what matters most.
