countdown

i really don't want to count the number of days that i will be spending here in the philippines before i move to bangkok. makes me panic -- what clothes should i bring? how much money do i need? who will get my shoes and sandals when i leave them here? hehehe. makes me sad -- i'll miss the christmas pinoy-style, i'll miss the sand of puerto galera, i'll miss my fabulous friends, i'll miss my super family, i'll miss the condo, i'll miss the polluted manila, i'll miss my pillows, i'll miss practically everything that is my home.

but i'm looking forward to a new life. i'm excited to experience a lot of things that i never know exist. i'd like to see the whole world before me. i'd like to discover a culture that is so unlike mine. i'd love to learn the language. i'd love to travel to places unknown.

this is just so me.
