just a thought

if i am sexy, i'd go naked everyday

Im waiting for my beloved brother for almost eternity. The airport cooling system sucks and it smells like a rotten whatever here. I'm gonna blow up any minute and I haven't had sleep for 30 hours already. We've been here since forever and im gonna kick Cathay pacific's a$$ for delaying my bro's flight for 3 days. I smell like zoie's poop for the 12 hours of sitting in the welcomer's area that looks more like a dungeon than a sitting place. And they still have the nerves to collect terminal fee. Shame..

Thanks airforce station for the free wifi. At least I could rant what's been lurking in my brain that is slowly dying as minutes pass. That helps. And u too kindle. I'm addicted to you without even trying.

jetlag

haist! still in the process of overcoming the eastern time. i am asleep at 7pm and awoke at 3am and it become a habit. 

i hope this craziness will be done before my vacation ends or i'll spend everyday in the office yoga-ing and i'm not even talking about the exercise.. maybe i should start by resetting my blogger account back to philippine timezone. that goes with my laptop, too.

thank you

cards for the people whom in one way or another

helped me to go through those last

5 months of my life.

this should go along with a nice friendship poem, but,

it's 4am in the morning and i still didn't pick up my

scattered brain on my bed sheets :(

i didn't know how much i miss writing on cards 'til i made these.

thank you for sharing your life to me :D

true!

last night in georgia

i know it's late but i'm posting this anyway coz it's too good to be ignored. 

here's my last night i had in georgia.

tita susan hosted a despidida party for me and i'm more than honored for it. i really really am touched! honestly, i didn't talk that much coz my voice was shaking and i would cry any moment. i'm not good in talking and crying - i can't do it simultaneously. 

tita prepared a barbecue party and it was... wait for it... AWESOME! i haven't eaten a barbeque for 5 months so i craved to a superlative degree. and it wasn't just me, the whole pack devoured the meat like it'll be an acapolyse - and that would be an understatement.

i just wish i did my best on my "thank you" speech and not like a spoiled brat preschooler who was just forced by her mom to talk, which i did on every levels. LAME! i wish i thanked tita better than what i did coz she deserved it. she's been a big part of my five months of stay there.

tita :)

eto yon eh!

under my umbrella

rice nga nagkulang!

dinner on the brisk dusk

kainan na!

i'm so blessed for this once in a lifetime experience.

tsk

i don't have a phone number,

how lame is that?!

that moment

i'm in pinas..oh, how much i've missed you my country of birth :)

i'm still getting the hang of US, but, i'm happy to be here, nevertheless. i traveled 12 time zones and as much as i love being in here, but my consciousness was left in the eastern time zone, so, i felt sleepy when i shouldn't be. 

anyways, i am posting my last moments inside the merritt apartment, where i spent those latest 5 months of my life :)

the "not so clean" bathroom as dubbed by Gab

the only relationship i had for 5 months :)

bags packed and ready

the patio that i so loved

there you go :P

Note: late post.

last 4 hours

Touchdown Seoul. 4 hours away from home!! Ayeeeeee...

I'm half dead, 15 hours of airborne was no joke and I'm adding it to my list of the things that I hate. And I'm sure I just made someone to have a bad day. I accidentaly smash into him inside the airplane causing his glass of smoothie to spill all over his pants. Good thing his not mad. Or maybe he is and just hid it and is now planning to stab my back (looking at my back). But his korean and I know that they're nice so I'm feel fine now.

Btw, im at incheon airport and I just met a Cebuano who lives in Oregon, US and is visiting her family back in Cebu. At least I could talk a non-alien language coz I'm pretty sure my tongue is twisted and injured already.

on board

Incheon airport,  Seoul, south Korea
- i'm gonna wait for another 2 hours for my connecting flight to the philippines, and there's a free wifi, so, i'm thinking of posting what i had written in atlanta..

I'm leaving Georgia right freaking now. I'm already inside the airport and will wait for another 2 boring hours before boarding my plane. and I don't know what to do so Im just typing this nonsense on my kindle fire. I just wish Atlanta airport would be that generous to have a free wifi. anyways, they have the best airport so I cant complain. I love their train system.

so, I'm gonna say bye bye USA. you've been very good to me of my 5 months here - well, except your very cold weather, Im not a big fan. thanks. i'm missing you already :(

emo

americans are so sweet. they dropped by in my cube and personally said their goodbyes. i was so busy smiling coz any minute there's someone who'll just pops out in my cube and send their goodbye wishes! and with emails at that - they take time to come here in person. i'm touch! that makes me sad leaving them :(

:|

we just had the "vella going away" lunch and i was awkward the whole time. failed!

see you soon home

i'm going home tomorrow! yup, it's friday and it's the 13th but i don't wanna make a big deal out of it. and i know that i'm not the only one who's excited for the airborne, coz, somewhere on the globe (i think it's in north korea) there some rocket launching that will going to happen any time today or tomorrow! and there are some worldwide fuss about the danger it comes on the air transportation and i read on the news that some of the airlines were cancelling their flights or rerouting, so, as much as i would like to be in the rocket launching history, i don't wanna be a part of it as someone who got hitten by the rocket debris. that is just uncalled for!

we'll going to have a stopover in south korea, which shares the same border with North Korea (i'm a bad a$$ at geography, hahaha), so, they said that that's not the best idea there is! so, i'm expecting a rerouting and i hope our flight will detour europe for that matter - london perhaps! then we got stuck in there for another day and we got to spend our nights in one of their hotels! hehehehe.

then there's this bomb threat that had happened yesterday on Korean Air flight 777, which is the airline i'm at tomorrow! es-kee-ree!! did i mention that it's gonna be friday the 13th, too? tsk! 

though, i make the situation light, but it kinda make me worried and afraid at some point. but, i have my Lord with me so i need to shoo all the negative thoughts out of my head. i know i'm gonna  be safe :)

see you soon home :)

weird work fact

exchanging emails to people you haven't seen

bye party

here i am again, writing nonsense in the middle of work (i'm pretty sure it's illegal). it just that i'm waiting for someone else's doc and the waiting bored me to death so might as well spend my slack time to do something i'm good at - rambling!

so, (it bothers me to start a sentence with a conjunction 'so', let alone a paragraph, and i do it a lot and will continue to do it!, and i know my highschool english teachers would deny me if they'll read it, thanks God they wont be able to, and here start the rambling that doesn't even included in my sentence) my 5 months of stay here in the US has ended and i need to go back to my country, Philippines this coming friday. my mentor, polite and good as he is, which i am very thankful of, planned to have a despidida party for me a day before i depart and invited all the members of the team. and by all means everyone in the group *rambling*. so, (here it is again, the 'so' tale) there's this teammate (he is not in the project that i'm in) who practically sit infront of me and within my arm's reach and we face each other with only the cube wall separates us, so, basically, he's the first person i see every time i stand up and vice-versa (oh there, he just stood up). 

i'm always been awkward to strangers and to all people whom i haven't shared my personal life's story. i have authority issues, too. i'm uneasy towards my superiors and it never gets old :(

so, the invitation's subject is "Vella going away lunch". and there comes my other issue, i don't want to get noticed or to get an attention, as i've said, i'm awkward. and as if my uneasiness was not enough, the person i've mentioned earlier, the one that i share the same cube wall said (in a very loud voice that i almost sure it could be heard by anyone in the building) "who the hell is Vella?, i don't know her". bang! i don't blame him, honestly! i don't talk too much unless it's non-work related or that we shared the same dialect. coz my next issue is, i have a very hard-twisted tongue when speaking english (or tagalog for that matter), i mispronounced words, i'm not spontaneous and people hardly understand what i'm talking about. i can write well (i guess, hehehe) but with that, i had time to construct my sentences. 

so, back to the person that i share the same cube wall, sad to say, he was very right!! i am barely there in my 5 months of stay. sure, i did all the task that was given to me but i talked very little. so, imagine my very red face during that incident - i think i couldn't be any redder!

one of those damn moments

we clearly don't like each other that much, so, why don't we do each other a favor and stay as far from one another as we can?

we'll be saving each other's life then from killing one another..

true

never will i get tired
of trying to get my happy ending

true

it sucks being a grown up

you don't have reason to be foolish

love thy neigborhood
