I am leaving Bacolod by 8PM. It's funny how I got responses on my Facebook when I posted on my status this message: "Myckle is thinking of staying in Bacolod for good."
They all wanted me to stay which feels good but my dilemma is if I stay here, I will have no malls to go when bored, almost all establishments are closed by 8pm, my present company doesn't have a site here, most of my college friends are already in Manila, Boracay is so near but you're far from everything else, etc. But there is one thing that outweighs all of these-my family.
I enjoyed my stay here because it's so laidback here, your 6 hours is like one whole day because time moves so slow maybe because people here have laidback lifestyle and I was pampered.
When I get back in Manila, I will decide if I should stay here for good but in the meantime, I have to leave.
I JUST SOOOO LOVE BACOLOD!

Happy New Year!
It feels good to start the year RIGHT. Yes, I am trying my very best to write again. I am not a good writer but I realized that instead of whining and complaining, I can vent out through my blog so that others won't have to bear with me and my big mouth, and I can maintain positivity at work. Writing as they say is therapy which is true in my case.
Anyways, Happy New Year! It's unbelievable that it's already 2009. I'm already 23 turninf 24 this year... and that, I got promoted to a team manager post last year. So what's in store for 2009? I don't know to be honest, but one thing's for sure - I AM WILLING TO TAKE WHATEVER 2009 will throw at me.

Should I Stay?
It is New Year's Eve and I'm home for the 1st time after almost 3 years of work in Manila.
When I was in Manila I was thinking, did the celebration of New Year change in our neighborhood? How does it feel to be with your family again on the last night of the year?
I am here now in Bacolod and I am very happy. This feeling gets to me every single time I am here because as an old saying goes, "Home is where the heart is".
Nothing much has changed. I always expect things to change but they are the same - same noise, same environment and same people.
I am even thinking of just moving back and working here in Bacolod. I love the laidback life I guess. I love the fact that I know a lot of people in every corner.
Now, I have a lot of thinking to do.

Getting There
I am the world's leading slacker.
You see I promised way way back that I'll be updating my blog but I haven't posted anything for a long time. Blame it on me - I stopped making excuses this year so I won't blame my work, resources etc.
Anyway, I really promise that before the year ends since I'm on vacation here in Bacolod, I should have enough time to tweak this little world of mine.

Sad Lil' Boy
I've been finding myself having breakfast with the officers in the company for the past few weeks. Of course they're girl officers. I remember a conversation with Kat and Irene.
Me: Don't you sometimes look at a person beside you like in MRT and read their minds?
Kat: No. That's a crazy thing to do.
Irene: I don't do that as well.
Me: Well, I do...like one time I was looking at the guy beside me in the MRT, he was pensive. I was like seeing a though bubble and it was like showing, 'Am I going to quit my job and go abroad?'.
Kat: Aawww, you're a sad lil' boy.
Me: I'm not a sad lil' boy excuse me!
After that I started to ask myself, "Am I really happy with how my life is right now? "
Until now, I still don't know.

Home
As I am typing this entry, Sex and the City is playing on my background and mom's watching it i think.
Just got home, I'm here in Bacolod and I am happy, so happy. I love it here. I am now entertaining the thought of staying here for good but NO! great opportunities abound in Manila. However, I have observed that a lot of things have changed here. There's traffic, Call Centers are sprouting everywhere and it's also hotter now(blame that to Global Warming). But what makes me happy is that my neighborhood hasn't changed although there are some unfamiliar faces popping out in some corners you know. I still have the same set of sugarol and loud neighbors, kids shouting and running around and of course the chismosas. In our house, I still have the use the same mug, our cat's still here and the ambiance is very comfortable of course. It's like I still belong here. No feeling of awkwardness or alienation after living in Manila for a couple of years. Maybe because it was just me who thought that things will really change.
It's really true that home is where the heart is.
