I am planning to go to school and get my things done and ready for the term three kick in in the next few weeks. I’ve got to finish all my paperworks and get things done ASAP. I hope I can get it on due date since I’ve just mostly enjoyed every day here doing nothing or going somewhere with my friends. I just hope I can do it in due time. Hopeful smiley face. I need to focus on my work and go to school early tomorrow. I just hope….
Irritatingly Irritable
I’m so irritated today just by the fact that I don’t know one thing doesn’t mean that I cannot do everything. Why not look at your fucking face on the mirror first before saying anything, right? I just hate people like ‘em. People who easily pick on other’s mistakes and weaknesses not looking on their own imperfectness in the first place. They aren’t worthy to be talked about either, I know but I’m just deeply annoyed tonight. I wanna gas them to death, urgh! Angry face.
A Nice Breather on a Mid-term Break
It’s a nice evening last night when we had a long walk on a winding roads of Doha. I feel like I just needed a breather where I don’t need to think about anything at all. I had a nice and memorable walk for I know that it would be the first and last walk I’d ever have here. I only have more or less 18 weeks left here in this country and sooner or later I’m coming back home. Whew! Finally I can have a chance to be with my family and my beloved again. I think I won’t be going abroad again for I need to prepare my papers for my long term goals. This time I hope I won’t be alone in a foreign land again. Smiles.
Here I am again…
There are times that I’m just overwhelmed at the circumstances at hand and there are times that I tend to shush myself despite all the things that are happening in my life. However, today’s no different at all for I just left my mouth shut inspite all the things I’ve heard from the people around me. I just keep my silence because I don’t like to be involved in their mess. I know you don’t understand me here but to tell the whole story would end up me blabbering for no reason. Well, I guess I would. Maybe in time I will but for now I need to doze off for I need to prepare myself for tomorrow’s asshattery here at work,
. Nighteee everyone!
I Promise…
Here I am again with my fake promises. I know promises are made to be broken but I’d try my very best to update my sites. I know it’s very far from possibility but I’d try to keep you posted here. I promise…
The Good Updates
Recently I can feel a little bit sense of satisfaction at work and I can say that despite everything that happened with me here everything’s turning out just fine. With all the challenges I’ve surpassed here, there is nothing more memorable than this place because I had so far all my shocking truths discovered here in this land of opportunities. In a good sense, there are so many things that makes me realize so far especially relating to the importance of family. Well, I’m just happy and super blessed that I’m raised well by my loving parents and they really showed us a good example unlike what I’ve seen in this weird place. Whew then again it doesn’t shock me anymore nor am I culturally surprised at how OFWs like me behave and make decisions while being here abroad. Though it is really true that it’s not easy to work away from our comfort zones but it’s a one man challenge to overcome every single trial that’s come to trick his life in so many treacherous ways.
Parent-Teachers’ Meeting 2011
People came very early tonight and as far as I’ve thought to be the very taxing day for me, it turned out not to be for I believe tonight’s the best night of my life here in SA. My kids’ parents were very supportive and thankful to me. They really thanked me for doing such a great job with their kids liking every day to come to school excited and happy. I hope we’d have more of great days in the classroom and that my kids won’t stop being enthusiastic of studying especially the English language as their second language. They need to learn and master it for their future. That’s my goal as the world is becoming more conscious of speaking English. I mean correct English.
I Hope this Year’s gonna be AWESOME! :)
I don’t know what lies ahead but I’m hoping that this year’s gonna be awesome for everyone. There is not much on my list of goals this year but I’m keeping faith that I can achieve all of these, for sure in His right time where no one can say no. His will is after all the best of all. I’m sure there are so many challenges and trials along the way as much as blessings are bountiful. God know every person’s desires though and it’s what keeps me going on each and every day much more that I’m away from home now. Still, I believe that this year’s gonna be awesomely great!
Lessons Learned
I’ve been having a great vacay so far here at my hometown. There has been a lot more things to do yet so little time left for me to meet all my friends. I really want to meet them all but I think I won’t be seeing them maybe some but not all. I’m rest assured though to come back here next year hopefully this would be my last contract abroad. If ever I would go abroad again I would NEVER EVER DARE to go in the Middle East again! Even though I’ve learned a lot more lessons there, my trials and misadventures cannot far outweigh the lessons I’ve got. I just don’t want to commit the same wrong mover ever again. This reminds me of my Canadian friend Trent who actually said to me that I should do whatever makes me happy. I’m DEFINITELY NOT HAPPY there so I won’t dare come back and work ever again. Once is enough. Twice is too much. The succeeding more cases would be plain IDIOCY!
Ten More Months to Spend Away from Home…again?!
Oh now, not again! Right now, I’m so bugged with the idea of coming back to the place where I never wanted to come and work. If not because of gaining more experiences as a teacher, I wouldn’t risk my life there. It’s my adventurous nature which enlightens my curiosity to risk everything that comes my way. It just occurred to me while I was staring blankly on the wall this morning that I’ve been away from home for almost four years now yet I still want more. I feel that as I earn more, I also have so many things to accomplish in my life. Of course, being human as I am never feels satisfied of what I have; instead, yearning for more is the goal of some, me included. I just want to see my family most especially my parents to be happy for it’s the only way I can repay them for rearing me all these years. I won’t be where I am now without their undying love and support. That is why I am making the best out of my singlehood for I know that priorities will change a little bit when I turn into the next chapter of my life. Sighs.
