Today's THE DAY! My Dad's finally COMING home, arriving this evening from his 3-week vacation to the Philippines! While a friend of mine is supposedly GOING to the Philippines tonight to attend her grandma's wake. Isn't that great?!
My friend, Sheila asked me when I'd be vacationing to Manila, since I hadn't been home since 1995 (Yes! That long!) I remember telling her that Dad has to settle our condo before I even plan to go home, which then was just partly true. But now that my Dad has settled our property, (where we could stay during our vacations) I really have no excuse now if ever they ask me to go. But if I try to sum things up, I could not find a really good reason to go home. My friends are literally scattered now all over the world, working abroad and most likely it would be hard for me to go about commuting and going places over there.
Sure, I miss some things about Manila but not enough for me to go home with no reason to go home to. It's much better for me to stay here and let mom or dad (or both) use the money intended for my plane ticket for something else.
