Revelations Circa 2005

This helluva rollercoaster year is about to end. And a new year is about to start. I know I am lame with introductions, straight to the point answers, blog topics, random musings and everything else. I later realize that people like me, having not much of a social life, shouldn't be writing a blog. I will most probably write something worth reading in the future- live a novelization of this blog. Haha. Who am I kidding?

So now I'll just have to sum up 3 months worth of updating about my gung-ho farm life (which in case if you guys weren't tuned in with my big move from my awesome-yet-simple life in Manila, to my delusional and endless pigging out on smoregasboreds in Abu Dhabi all the way to a huge leap in SoCal) digitally inked within the confinement of this screen:

01. I now live in Bakersfield, CA. Yes, it is near the mountains. And yes, there is lifeform on this side of California.
02. I quit school for which had seemed like eons due to the delay of necessary status changes, and hopefully, keeping my fingers crossed, I will continue nurturing my intellect next Spring.
03. I'm only online to check my mail, two of my friendster and myspace accounts and if I get lucky, chat with friends I haven't heard from for the longest time. I will be getting a computer soon, and DSL, and everything that needs to be setup in order for my "business in web development" to run. These are all eventually being planned as I type and will be further released...pronto.
04. I am currently learning how to drive and I hope to pass my driver's license practicals so that I could get my Cali license. And as for the wheels to drive, I still have no idea. I am not a car person so I couldn't care less which car to drive as long as it isn't super ancient and I would have to get a multi-colored seatcover for it. My friend Roxy owns a Mustang and I'm thinking of getting one as well.
05. The weather is so friggin' cold here and it isn't what I've expected it to be. I'm hella freezing my anorexic bones here. So after Thanksgiving my family and I went shopping for thermal coats, mittens and boots. I got the ones with fur to warm my toes. It gave new meaning to "shopping as a necessity"
06. Yes, Kiwi and I are still together. We love each other. Period. I know it won't be a merry Christmas for the both of us but I think we should give ourselves pats in the back for keeping cool about this whole LDR ordeal. I hate it so much. But I'd rather do productive stuff than dwell about it.
07. I was saddened by the fact that I left a lot of stuff in 'Pinas. Memories, friends, unfinished business, clothes, bags and a whole lot of other bullcrap. People I will miss and others I have completely erased from my life. People I countlessly shed tears for and people who will never know and understand me. Oh yeah and people who don't miss me aren't excempted. It sucks if you're not missed.
07. And as for my friends who read my blog, check in from time to time, you know who you are. Thanks for making me a part of your lives even though my life isn't as glamorous as a movie star's. But hey, not everyone can have their own reality show. So I might as well type away. I've always objected writing into these kind of things but I started blogging as early as 14 and I can't help myself.

For now, after this whole entry has been published I am not sure if I would post as regularly as I hope I would. So this is a temporary goodbye until I get my life back on track. TTFN* as the British say.
*ta-ta for now


Hiatus starts now.
