Well,
hello there little blog that I've abandoned for too long! I apologize for the
absence of activity, I wasn't in a writing mood for quite a while. I never seem
to have found the energy to sit down and type. Perhaps uninspired? Not really.
Lazy maybe. I'm really working on getting myself to write more these days.
There is just so much to write about around me really but I can't seem to
figure out why I have no words for them. Truly, discipline is everything. So, how do I begin to narrate the
days when I decided to temporarily not exist in this tiny universe that I have
created for my own? Perhaps I’ll go with the
proven and tested ‘a step at a time’. Yes, I’ll go by that.
I've recently moved back to Manila. Emphasizing on ‘back’ since it was my home
before I moved to Cebu to continue my studies. I had a wonderful three years in
Cebu. I was reunited with my old friends and I made new once too. The city was
my comfort zone. I loved every bit of my stay and I am sure to visit it often.
There is not day that I don’t miss it or think about it. But life has its way
of letting us have the ‘growing up’ that we all need. Moving to the capital was
tough decision. But I knew it was the right thing to do. I've been on a holiday
for too long.
Life is so
real here. Manila is not a shy city.
It’s very outspoken and straightforward. It is aware of its greatness
and will never adjust for anyone. Very well identified and is sure of it
itself. It has everything that the word ‘city’ seeks to define; bad traffic,
skyscrapers, glamour, high rent, events, opportunities, poverty, pollution,
etc. Not a trace of country life, just urbanization everywhere. Above all, it is home to the most significant
places and persons in my life. Most of who I am now was molded in this city.
Cebu is special, but Manila is definitely my favorite.
I have a few
stories to tell which will be featured on my future posts. I have a long list
ahead of me. I will get on them one by one. Promise. I will include the
explanation of the new look! haha
Let’s leave
it here for now.
