Can/Can't Wait to Be Home (see if you're tagged)

Just felt like listing some of the things on my mind. I invite friends who are also quite far away from home (phils/hometown) to answer it.

Here are my current lists, it might change in a few days time.

List 8 reasons why you can't wait to be home and 6 reasons why you can wait to be home. Tag as many people as you want. hahaha

So Taya - Ur Tagged -

Ate Tatit, Ate Maita, Ate Reg, Tristan, Ate Tsina, Allie, Ajeet, Joseph, Pat, Jay (Neil Ancheta), Ava, MehAnne, any of the Inumberables Sisters :) and whoever else is interested. :)



CAN'T WAIT TO BE HOME

1) To eat a good/full meal that is equivalent to less than £6! - preferrably Filipino or Japanese Buffet (saisaki!!)

2) I can phone home (mom, mama, papa, etc) and talk as long as I want to

3) Get a large strawberry milkshake and really enjoy it because I won't feel too cold after (and which I have demanded Loleng to pay for)

4) Watch a movie for way less than £5-7 - hopefully watch movie every week

5) Swim and chill in a whitesand beach - Camiguin! Camiguin!

6) Get unlimited MMS of Baby Aliq from Dodot or Mom (dapat atleast 3x a week!)

7) See and hug some of my old friends who will hopefully either visit me while im in Manila or in Iligan (you know who you are!)

8) Have as many Ice Cold Coke Light or Sarsi Lite!! - I still haven't found any sarsi lite here. And besides if meron, it'll probably cost 3times its cost back home. Sayang ang pera.

 

CAN WAIT TO GO HOME

1) I haven't seen Wicked or any Musical yet  (which I am demanding Jay to allow us to catch really soon - on a weekday because it is cheaper..Ajeet tulong sa pagconvince!)

2) I'm soooo going to miss the variety of Good Bread available here (bagels!!) - I Love Bread!!

3) I haven't been to Stonehenge yet (which Jay promised Shaie and I we'll go to - more like we coerced him to promising that he'd take us there, hahaha)

4) I haven't really had enough of the parks, especially the ones filled with flowers! (I'll miss the tulips and the daffodils)

5) I have only begun to be close to the kids and youth at E13 Mix Club and it would be nice to spend more time with them - (and yeah - I'm going to miss the pool table, the wii, PS3 and everything else that's in their youth club. hehehe)

6) Because I don't know how to fit in all my stuff flying back home because I bought too many things (mostly pasalubong). I'm so going to pay for excess baggage, I can see it already.

Just turned 26

I haven't been writing here for some time. I got busy with work, but not this week. We are like waiting for things/organisations to tell us when and what time we can go and do our interview.

So I just turned 26, yohoo! It was good long weekend, bank holiday yesterday and elections last Thursday so we didn't have work. But pumbi, my camera, just isn't working well that most of pictures during the weekend of my bday are in meh-anne and joseph's cameras. I should get them soon and upload the photos.

It was a blast going to a Filipino host home and having barbeque during my bday itself. Tita Cecil threw a party (her bday is on May2) on May 3. The sun was cooperative as well, so it was a good day out in her backyard. Afterwards we hit ilford for some sports action. We played Ultimate Tennis Ball (frisbee rules using a ball). It was fun. The park was lovely as well.

May4 we hit Central London for some art and culture. Went to Camden Market, which is like greenhills and baclaran combined, pero mas mahal ang mga gamit but cooler to walk around because of UK weather. We got some harry potter madness when we went to 9 and 3/4 at king's cross. Whole afternoon was for British Museum which was definitely overwhelming. Got to see Egypt and Greece section. Amazing!

Good weekend, definitely good weekend. :) Can't wait to share the photos with all of you.
