therefore I'd rather spend it Cebu with my family and friends :-)
after all, people go to Cebu for a holiday..e ako pa na don nag-originate..shempre its always a treat to be in my hometown, even if elections are not my most favorite activity...
This second move of mine to Manila in 2004 was because of the business-school studies I had at AIM. After graduation it was really apparent that jobs I was looking for to complement whatever skills I added to my portfolio were not available in Cebu.
If it would be the same job, most assuredly I'd move back to Cebu, after all the job I have just requires a working computer, phone and DSL connection.
And certainly I could save more if I were in Cebu, most of my salary gets eaten up by rent, utilities and food here....think of all the places I could vacation if I were to stay in Cebu (walang bayad kay pader dear kc if I stay with my parents hehehe)
funny thing..when I was younger I said - if I were to choose between Cebu and Manila, I'd choose Cebu.; if I were to choose between Manila and working abroad, I'd choose abroad; if I were to choose between Cebu and working abroad, it was a toss-up..but look at me now :-(
haha, only if it was Hawaii...I like cold weather, but not snow...I tried snow flurries in Cincinnati...I looked funny, I was wearing balaclava even for such things, hahaha!

ReplyDeleteHi Cath. Saan ka ba based ... Manila ?
ReplyDeleteyep, I am Manila-based :-(
ReplyDeletewish ko sana di archipelago ang Pinas so I could have just hopped on a train back towards my hometown..
why sad youre based in Manila Cath?? ... stressful city ha ?
ReplyDeletep.s. Mas maganda sana may apparatus tayo like Star Trek ..... "Beam me up Scotty."
magastos dito :-) besides, I'm used to Cebu wherein almost everywhere is easy to travel to ...
ReplyDeleteex. beach? pwede 30 minutes!, waterfall? - pwede 1 hour; malls? 15 minutes or less; mountains? 20 minutes if walang traffic, cultural places - 10 minutes pwede; volcano? - ay, wala pala...mwehehe!
I guess youre just being so practical .... accessibilty to any place within minutes.
ReplyDeletep.s. hmmmmm .... May matitirahan na pala ako if ever I visit Cebu ! hehehehe
Ang tawag diyan "blame-thrower." :-)
ReplyDelete*innocent blink-blink of eyes*
ReplyDeleteof course, there's a lot of hotels and pension houses all over the island!
mygas, Chito, blame-thrower ka pala, yun ang tawag ni Joey eh...
ReplyDeleteWas it because of a job that you moved to Manila in the first place, Cat? If so, would you move back to Cebu if you can have the same job there?
ReplyDeletehi Peachy Mommy!
