Give me a map, please
I’ve been neglecting my blog for a while. The reason for this is that last week, I was busy accomodating my brother, who was on a vacation here from Taiwan.
Today, he went back to Taiwan. And then I recall some entries in my older, dead blog account, where I narrated how dreaded I feel whenever my siblings go back to where they work, i.e. away from Philippines, away from our apartment’s doorsteps.
Back then, however, it was easy to move on. I did have thesis, OJT, and job interview that serve as a challenge that, however onerous, were enough to propel moving on and not missing my siblings too much. Admittedly, this time my brother’s vacation was short-lived, and not at all that memorable, but after he left I’m now alone in the room we used to share, craving for someone to converse with. Craving for a person who can comprehend my geekiness, my corniness and my fastidiousness.
Worse still, every tomorrow would all appear the same. I would be tackling projects that isn’t so much challenging as it is tedious. And someone in the office is annoying the hell out of me. There’s nothing much to look forward to - at least not anything in the near future, which makes it all the more depressing.
So, I hope it’s not so rude to ask, but does anybody want to go out with me?
