It's been a great great week! God should really make more of this sort of week. This is what people need-- not those work-packed, overstressed ones that everybody can certainly live without.
After a failed attempt to land in Kalibo, FILC finally arrived in sunny Boracay on Nov 1 and spent a glorious 4-days there. Needless to say, paradise still looked just as I remembered. Beautiful, peaceful, perfect.
Well, during the day, that is. Sadly, I didn't really see much of its nights, as I spent them cooped up in bed, bathing myself in White Flower, watching crappy TV and talking to my beloved as he tried to make me feel better as much as he could from a million miles away. What's so strange is that my tummy only acted up at night! When the sun is up, it's a-okay. But as it sets and darkness falls, parang it misses the sun so much it starts grumbling and complaining. Hay.
Anyhoot, looking at the bright side, I got a semi-tan (as usual, my skin only keeps the semi-tan for about half a day or so) and got to bond more with my beautiful sistahs. Will definitely do it again, though next time our resort of choice shall veer more towards the higher-end (codename for cleaner, bigger and better-smelling) of the available choices.
As soon as I landed, I couldn't wait to see my beau again. I missed him so much! As this was our first time away from each other for that long, we both suffered some separation anxiety and really bad withdrawal symptoms. When we saw each other again and went out to a movie and dinner date, I actually felt naninibago, as if it was weird to see him again (in a good way, of course). I missed you, babe!
Oh, and my parents definitely have a strange way of missing me. I discovered when I got back that my mom had bought me a beautiful, super elegant Jessica McClintock evening bag. For no reason. Just 'coz. Haha! I love being an only daughter! It certainly has its perks :) Imagine, ako na nga itong umalis, ako pa ang may pasalubong!
After a glorious week at paradise and a glorious weekend with my baby, I guess I'm ready to go back to work tomorrow. Well, this week starts off with a meeting with Company S, where hopefully my deal with them pushes through and I'll be off to greener pastures sooner than I expected. Wish me luck! :)
What a great holiday! I wish every year has a week like this. A week full of friends, bonding, laughter, great experiences, sunny skies, a great boyfriend, and a really really nice evening bag. Life can't get much better than this :)
