Welcome back to the light

Hello... Remember me?

So, after a long break, I've finally found time to write again. It's Sunday, 6:38AM here, probably 3-4Am in Manila(?), and its the only time in my week that's not... psychedelic, to say the least. Then again, that's probably not the right word.

Jaded?

Maybe. I'll explain why soon. In the meantime, some updates [enter telegram SFX, dit-didit-didit-tooooootttt....]:

- I left Manila and arrived February 21, 2007, so that about 3 Months here in Auckland
- I have a job, doing PR for a wonderfull Trust organization (I am now qualified to file residency, yipeee!!)
- Tomorrow I'll try to loose that wonderful job (not as wonderful as I first thought). I just accepted a new offer and hopefully I start in a week. I'm not being picky or maarte... Basta...). So now I have to wait 1 paycheck till I file residency(Argh!).
- I have another job, working as an usher for The Edge, which I absolutely love since I get to watch free shows (Theatre, orchestras, opera and other performance arts).
- I live in a small apartment building(emphasis on the “small”), at the corner of Queen Street. That's just like living in Manhattan, with the volume turned down.
- I have flat mates. And I consider them more as flat mates than friends (Yet again, to be explained again soon... or not.).
- We pay NZ$75 each for rent a week, and my weekly expense is around NZ$200 ($1=P33). I can get by fine, but hasn’t been always the case.
- I just found out that I hate "makukulit na tao", so I won't be makulit anymore (yes, expect a long, ranting post on this soon)
- I'm thinner (I can hear "yeah right!" all around-- Aw shut-up!).
- The music playing in my head: The acoustic version of Mr. Brightside by The Killers. More of the rhythm than the lyrics though.
- Current mood: Happy, but not content.

I really don't know how to put in words all that has happened since I first arrived. There's so many, and I'm so new.

So, more to come from the new and improved new Tuny's Fishbowl.

Sweet-azz!
