relocating

I got accepted into a new job. And it's not gonna be in cebu, it's gonna be in manila! hehe... philippines lang naman... not far naman. just 45 min plane ride. but then, it's away from home. it's away from good friends and family. it'll be my first time to live on my own and that translates to washing clothes on my own, having no mom to prepare my breakfast, no lola to cook lunch and dinner. I'm going to be on my own. It's exciting yet scary... I've been to Manila a few times. And i've never really love it. I hate the traffic, I hate lots of people. I hate the pollution. I abhor, detest it! Back then, I vowed, "No way I am going to work in Manila!"
Eat my words! Soon, I'll be going to that city - live there, work there. But why the change of mind? well, i'm so so bored na with my work, with Cebu, with my love life status quo. kapoya man gud oi, wa jud tawn ko kakita og keke diri sa cebu...Why not move to Manila, where I have better choices of career, and men. hahaha! Well, i am 26. I'm not getting any younger! I also would want to live independently. For years, I have been very dependent on my parents. I just crave for the challenge to live on my own. I'd want too to bolster my career. I also need one with a higher pay. Paano na young college tuition fee ni Charm? The only way to do this is - get a job in Manila. Singapore sana, kaya lang, I am not that prepared yet to compete with Singaporean job seekers. Besides, I'd need to have enough money while I look for a job there. And I don't have any! So this job offer from Deutsche Knowledge Services seems to be a good fit. They have a relocation package. Wala kaayo gastos for my move to Manila. How fortunate of me!

I hope all things go well for me! By November, Manila girl na ako... :)
