Silver steps...inch by inch...I will get there. Challenges...these too shall pass. What matters is at the end of the day, I can still move in silver inches.

Few more days

May 3, 2007

It's Thursday morning and a few more days I'll be heading back to Cebu and end my vacation. How time flies so fast that I remember I just got here in Manila same day last week.

I miss Cebu now. I miss the less traffic, less polution city. Though I am not from there and originally from here, I've learned to love the city. People are different, I'd say nicer. :) Sorry to the Manilenos and Manilenas (including me) but I find very few "pintasero at pintasera" in Cebu. You know those stare when you enter a five star hotel and you're just wearing maong, t-shirt, sandals and you're not a foreigner? The stare of the sales representative inside those branded shoes and bags? You know the stare of the people around you when your cellphone is still 3310 and everyone else is holding cellphones with camera and bluetooth? Very rare that I've experience that in Cebu. You can go around places without worrying what other people will think of the way you dress yourself or the gadget you're carrying. At least based on my experience. I have a lot of good things to say about that city and the people but of course nothing can be compared to being here with my family and friends. Though I have friends in Cebu already, mostly officemates, it is still different when I am with my highschool friends, college friends, officemates here in Manila. I'm just enjoying my stay in Cebu and give it a few months, I'll learn how to speak their dialect. I think I have the accent already. :p Who knows, I might stay there for good.
